11.People can often see a talking parrot on a TV show,in a movie,or even in someone's home.The parrot has learned (71)to copy (copy) sounds that people make.Dolphins,bats,and some apes also copy sounds.Now we can add elephants(72)to this list of copycats(盲目的模仿者).
Dr.Joyce Poole is a zoologist,(73)who studies the sounds of elephants.While she was in Kenya,she would hear strange noises (74)made (make) by Mlaika after sunset.Mlaika was (75)an 8-year-old African elephant (76)and it lived near a highway.
Dr.Poole says that she couldn't tell the difference between Mlaika's call and the (77)distant (distance) truck noise.Why did it copy the sounds of the trucks driving by?Animals that are able to copy sounds may enjoy (78)practicing/practising(practice) new sounds.When they are kept outside of their(79)natural(nature) environment,they may copy unusual sounds.
So far Dr.Poole (80)has spent (spend) 18years with two female Asian elephants.Asian elephants make sounds like birds to talk with one another.
Parrots,dolphins,humans,and elephants show that being a copycat is one way that animals and people make new friends and keep old ones.

分析 文章主要介紹了動(dòng)物比如鸚鵡、海豚、大象等都具有和人一樣的模仿功能.

解答 71.to copy  考查非謂語動(dòng)詞. 根據(jù)learn后跟不定式作賓語,learn to do sth.意為"學(xué)習(xí)做某事",故填to copy.
72.to    考查固定詞組. 根據(jù)add sth.to sth.把…加到….故填to. 
73.who   考查定語從句. 根據(jù)先行詞是zoologist,定語從句中缺少主語,且是非限制性定語從句,故填who. 
74.made    考查非謂語動(dòng)詞. 根據(jù)strange noises是make的動(dòng)作承受者,應(yīng)用過去分詞作定語.故填made. 
75.a(chǎn)n    考查冠詞用法. 8-year-old African elephant的首字母的發(fā)音是/ei/,元音音素應(yīng)用an,故填an. 
76.a(chǎn)nd    考查連詞用法.根據(jù)空前的Mlaika was an 8-year-old African elephant 和空后的 it lived near a highway.兩分句之間是并列關(guān)系,可知此處應(yīng)用并列連詞.故填and. 
77.distant   考查形容詞用法.根據(jù)空后是truck noise是名詞,應(yīng)用形容詞修飾,故填distant. 
78. practicing/practising    考查非謂語動(dòng)詞用法.根據(jù)固定搭配enjoy doing,可知此處應(yīng)用practice的動(dòng)名詞形式作賓語,故填 practicing/practising. 
79.natural    考查形容詞用法.根據(jù)空前的形容詞性代詞their和空后的名詞environment,可知此處應(yīng)用nature的形容詞形式,故填natural.
80.has spent    考查時(shí)態(tài).根據(jù)空前的so far判斷應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí),故填has spent.

點(diǎn)評 語法填空是通過語篇在語境中考查語法知識的運(yùn)用能力,在解題前應(yīng)快速瀏覽短文掌握大意,在讀懂短文的基礎(chǔ)上,結(jié)合短文提供的特定的語言環(huán)境去逐句分析,逐題解答.扎實(shí)的語法功底加上準(zhǔn)確的理解是解答語法填空題的關(guān)鍵.
