2020年8月1日雅思阅读考试真题答案

8月1号进行了八月初的第一场雅思的考试，相信大家对真题以及答案会非常的感兴趣、今天就由的我为大家介绍2020年8月1日雅思阅读考试真题答案。

一、考题解析

P1 土地沙漠化

P2 澳大利亚的鹦鹉

P3 多重任务

二、名师点评

1.8月份首场考试的难度总体中等，有出现比较多的配对题，没有出现Heading题，其余主要以常规的填空，判断和选择题为主。文章的话题和题型搭配也是在剑桥真题中都有迹可循，所以备考重心依然还是剑桥官方真题。

2. 整体分析：涉及环境类（P1）、动物类（P2）、社科类（P3）。

本次考试的P2和P3均为旧题。P2是动物类的话题，题型组合为：段落细节配对+单选+summary填空，难度中等。题型上也延续19年的出题特点，出现配对题，考察定位速度和准确度。P3也出现了段落细节配对，主要是段落细节配对+单选+判断。三种题型难度中等，但是文章理解起来略有难度。

3. 部分答案及参考文章：

Passage 1：土地沙漠化

题型及答案待确认

Passage 2：澳大利亚的鹦鹉

题型：段落细节配对+单选+Summary填空

技巧分析：由于段落细节配对是完全乱序出题，在定位时需要先做后面的单选题及填空题，最大化利用已读信息来确定答案，尽量避免重复阅读，以保证充分的做题时间。

Passage3： multitasking

Multitasking Debate—Can you do them at the same time？

Talking on the phone while driving isn＇t the only situationwhere we＇re worse at multitasking than we might like to think we are. Newstudies have identified a bottleneck in our brains that some say means we arefundamentally incapable of true multitasking. If experimental findings reflectreal-world performance， people who think they are multitasking are probablyjust underperforming in all-or at best， all but one -of their parallelpursuits. Practice might improve your performance， but you will never be asgood as when focusing on one task at a time.

The problem， according to René Marois， a psychologist atVanderbilt University in Nashville， Tennessee， is that there＇s a sticking pointin the brain. To demonstrate this， Marois devised an experiment to locate nteers watch a screen and when a particular image appears， a red circle，say， they have to press a key with their index finger. Different colouredcircles require presses from different fingers. Typical response time is about half a second， and thevolunteers quickly reach their peak performance. Then they learn to listen todifferent recordings and respond by making a specific sound. For instance， whenthey hear a bird chirp， they have to say ＂ba＂； an electronic soundshould elicit a ＂ko＂， and so on. Again， no problem. A normal personcan do that in about half a second， with almost no effort. The trouble comeswhen Marois shows the volunteers an image， then almost immediately plays them asound. Now they＇re flummoxed. ＂If you show an image and play a sound atthe same time， one task is postponed，＂ he says. In fact，if the second taskis introduced within the half-second or so it takes to process and react to thefirst， it will simply be delayed until the first one is done. The largestdual-task delays occur when the two tasks are presented simultaneously； delaysprogressively shorten as the interval between presenting the tasks lengthens（See Diagram）.

There are at least three points where we seem to getstuck， says Marois. The first is in simply identifying what we＇re looking  can take a few tenths of a second， during which time we are not able tosee and recognise a second item. This limitation is known as the＂attentional blink＂： experiments have shown that if you＇re watchingout for a particular event and a second one shows up unexpectedly any timewithin this crucial window of concentration， it may register in your visualcortex but you will be unable to act upon it. Interestingly， if you don＇texpect the first event， you have no trouble responding to the second. Whatexactly causes the attentional blink is still a matter for debate.

A second limitation is in our short-term visual ＇s estimated that we can keep track of about four items at a time， fewer ifthey are complex. This capacity shortage is thought to explain， in part， our astonishinginability to detect even huge changes in scenes that are otherwise identical，so-called ＂change blindness＂. Show people pairs of near-identicalphotos -say， aircraft engines in one picture have disappeared in the other -andthey will fail to spot the differences （if you don＇t believe it， check out theclips at /~rensink/flicker/download）. Here again， though， thereis disagreement about what the essential limiting factor really is. Does itcome down to a dearth of storage capacity， or is it about how much attention aviewer is paying？

A third limitation is that choosing a response to astimulus -braking when you see a child in the road， for instance，or replyingwhen your mother tells you over the phone that she＇s thinking of leaving yourdad -also takes brainpower. Selecting a response to one of these things willdelay by some tenths of a second your ability to respond to the other. This iscalled the ＂response selection bottleneck＂ theory， first proposed in1952.

Last December， Marois and his colleagues published apaper arguing that this bottleneck is in fact created in two different areas ofthe brain： one in the posterior lateral prefrontal cortex and another in thesuperior medial frontal cortex （Neuron， vol 52， p 1109）. They found this byscanning people＇s brains with functional MRI while the subjects struggled tochoose among eight possible responses to each of two closely timed tasks. Theydiscovered that these brain areas are not tied to any particular sense but aregenerally involved in selecting responses， and they seemed to queue theseresponses when presented with multiple tasks concurrently.

Bottleneck？ What bottleneck？

But David Meyer， a psychologist at the University ofMichigan， Ann Arbor， doesn＇t buy the bottleneck idea. He thinks dual-taskinterference is just evidence of a strategy used by the brain to prioritisemultiple activities. Meyer is known as something of an optimist by his  has written papers with titles like ＂Virtually perfect time-sharing indual-task performance： Uncorking the central cognitive bottleneck＂（Psychological Science， vol 12， p101）. His experiments have shown that withenough practice -at least 2000 tries -some people can execute two taskssimultaneously as competently as if they were doing them one after the  suggests that there is a central cognitive processor that coordinates allthis and， what＇s more， he thinks it uses discretion： sometimes it chooses todelay one task while completing another.

Even with practice， not all people manage to achieve thisharmonious time-share， however. Meyer argues that individual differences comedown to variations in the character of the processor -some brains are just more＂cautious＂， some more ＂daring＂. And despite urban legend，there are no noticeable

differences between men and women. So， according to him，it＇s not a central bottleneck that causes dual-task interference， but rather＂adaptive executive control＂， which ＂schedules task processesappropriately to obey instructions about their relative priorities and serialorder＂.

Marois agrees that practice can sometimes eraseinterference effects. He has found that with just 1 hour of practice each dayfor two weeks， volunteers show a huge improvement at managing both his tasks atonce. Where he disagrees with Meyer is in what the brain is doing to achievethis. Marois speculates that practice might give us the chance to find lesscongested circuits to execute a task -rather like finding trusty back streetsto avoid heavy traffic on main roads -effectively making our response to thetask subconscious. After all， there are plenty of examples of subconsciou*ultitasking that most of us routinely manage： walking and talking， eating andreading， watching TV and folding the laundry.

But while some dual tasks benefit from practice， otherssimply do not. ＂Certain kinds of tasks are really hard to do two atonce，＂ says Pierre Jolicoeur at the University of Montreal， Canada， whoalso studies multitasking. Dual tasks involving a visual stimulus andskeletal-motor response （which he dubs ＂in the eye and out the hand＂）and an auditory stimulus with a verbal response （＂in the ear and out themouth＂） do seem to be amenable to practice， he says. Jolicoeur has foundthat with enough training such tasks can be performed as well together asapart. He speculates that the brain connections that they use may be somehowspecial， because we learn to speak by hearing and learn to move by looking. Butpair visual input with a verbal response， or sound to motor， and there＇s nodramatic improvement. ＂It looks like no amount of practice will allow youto combine these，＂ he says.

For research purposes， these experiments have to be keptsimple. Real-world multitasking poses much greater challenges. Even the upbeatMeyer is sceptical about how a lot of us live our lives. Instant-messaging andtrying to do your homework？ ＂It can＇t be done，＂ he says. Conducting ajob interview while answering emails？ ＂There＇s no way you wind up being asgood.＂ Needless to say， there appear to be no researchers in the area ofmultitasking who believe that you can safely drive a car and carry on a phoneconversation. In fact， last year David Strayer at the University of Utah inSalt Lake City reported that people using cellphones drive no better thandrunks （Human Factors， vol 48， p 381）. In another study， Strayer found thatusing a hands-free kit did not improve a driver＇s response time. He concludedthat what distracts a driver so badly is the very act of talking to someone whoisn＇t present in the car and therefore is unaware of the hazards facing thedriver.

“No researchers believe it＇s safe to drive a car andcarry on a phone conversation”

It probably comes as no surprise that， generallyspeaking， we get worse at multitasking as we age. According to Art Kramer atthe University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign， who studies how ageing affectsour cognitive abilities， we peak in our 20s. Though the decline is slow throughour 30s and on into our 50s， it is there； and after 55， it becomes moreprecipitous. In one study， he and his colleagues had both young and oldparticipants do a simulated driving task while carrying on a conversation. Hefound that while young drivers tended to miss background changes， older driversfailed to notice things that were highly relevant. Likewise， older subjects hadmore trouble paying attention to the more important parts of a scene than youngdrivers.

It＇s not all bad news for over-55s， though. Kramer alsofound that older people can benefit from practice. Not only did they learn toperform better， brain scans showed that underlying that improvement was achange in the way their brains become active.

Whileit＇s clear that practice can often make a difference， especially as we age， thebasic facts remain sobering. ＂We have this impression of an almightycomplex brain，＂ says Marois， ＂and yet we have very humbling andcrippling limits.＂ For most of our history， we probably never needed to domore than one thing at a time， he says， and so we haven＇t evolved to be ableto. Perhaps we will in future， though. We might yet look back one day on peoplelike Debbie and Alun as ancestors of a new breed of true multitaskers.

Passage 1 – The Dover Bronze-Age Boat
READING PASSAGE 1 Questions1–13
Questions 1–5
解题策略（Tips and strategies）
此题为阅读中较为简单的图表填空题。做此类题目必须注意一下三点：
•该题目不一定按照顺序在文中出现；
•注意挑选容易定位的定位词；
•分析空格处所要填写内容的语法现象，并注意空格处对于字数的要求。
答案解析（Answer *ysis）

Question

Answer

Location

Analysis

1

road

1992

空格之前的“a”表明此处所填的单词必须是可数名词单数。所以很快我们可以从文章第一段找到“1992”这个定位词，句子中最符合的可数名词单数就是“road”这个单词。

2

conference

2002

此处所填的单词是名词。根据定位词“2002”在文章第五段找到定位。题干中的句子的意思是说在2002年召开一个国际化的_____来收集信息。所以根据句意和搭配，最终选出“conference”这个词。

3

proposals

2004

这个空格的定位很简单，答案将会出现在文章的第七段。题干的意思是和重建有关的一件事会被解决或者*。根据句意，具体定位到“Detailed proposals to reconstruct the boat were drawn up in 2004”这句话，所以最后挑选“proposals”这个单词。

4

launch

2007, 1550BC

这个答案出现自文章第八段的后半部分。除了“2007”,“1550BC”也是一个重要定位词，所以这个答案很好挑选，根据句意马上就可以选出“launch”这个单词。

5

exhibition

2021

这个答案出现在文章最后一段。题干的意思是一个和青铜器时代有的时间主要关注了这艘船和其他物品。所以根据句意最后一段的第一句话里就有我们需要的答案“exhibition”。

Questions 6–9
解题策略（Tips and strategies）
此题为阅读中最为常见的判断题，每次考试都会遇到。但此题型的难度系数在整个阅读中并不低，所以要格外重视。
•判断题在文章中按顺序出现；
•定位词的选择将是一个难点；
•学会分析题干和文章中对应的句子。
答案解析（Answer *ysis）

Question

Answer

Location

Analysis

6

TRUE

the boat had been damaged

文章第四段倒数第二句话“The boat was not a wreck, but had been deliberately discarded, di*antled and broken.”和题干表达的意思一致，都说明这艘船故意破坏和抛弃的。特别注意题干中的“on purpose”和原文中的“deliberately”的同义替换；“damage”和“di*antled”的替换。

7

FALSE

Initially

根据定位，原文中提到当时的主流的研究是关于这艘青铜器时代的船只的文化背景等，而非题干中所说的科技方面的研究。所以答案选择FALSE。

8

FALSE

northern end

根据定位词，这道题出现在文章第六段靠后的部分。题干的含义是考古学家又回到发掘现场并找到了消失的位于船体北部的船尾部分。但是文章中提到“the possibility of returning to Dover to…was explored, but…difficulties…”说明因为一些困难，这是并没有成功。所以原文和题干的内容是抵触的，答案选FALSE。

9

NOT GIVEN

2004

在整道判断题中，我们可以先从这大道题开始，因为它最容易定位。根据“2004”这个定位词我们找到了文章的第七段。题干的含义是“2004年发现的证据暗示这艘青铜器时代的船只曾经用于商贸。而在文章中只是说2004年发现的证据证明曾经有一个群落横跨了英吉利海峡，但没有提到这艘船的使用目的，所以此处只能选择NOT GIVEN这个选项。

Questions 10–13
解题策略（Tips and strategies）
此题为阅读考试中出现频率并不高的简答题。
•简答题按照顺序在文章中出现；
•注意简答题的相关的特殊疑问词；
•注意答案不需要原句重现，需要的是从原文中挑选符合要求的词、数字或词组。
答案解析（Answer *ysis）

Question

Answer

Location

Analysis

10

six/6
metres/meters/m

How far under the ground

通过审题，我们了解到这里最多可以填写3个单词和一个数字。结合这道题的定位词“how far”，它的答案一定包含和长度有关的数字。根据这些线索，我们找到文章的第二段第一句话，所以这艘船是从地下6米处被挖掘出的。

11

(pads of) moss

natural material, prevent water

通过理解这道题的题干，我们不难发现它还是在讲述这艘船发掘时候的事情，所以这道题的答案不会离开上一道题很远。我们最终在文章第三段的最后一句话找到了答案，文中的“watertight”就相当于题干中的“prevent water”，防水的天然材料就是一些苔藓。

12

(the) hull (shape)

aspect of the boat, 2021

这道题的定位相当简单，根据年份我们可以定位到文章的最后两段。同时根据段落大意，我们可以更精确地定位到倒数第二段。2021年的重建主要关注的就是船体的重建。

13

cost and time/cost
time/time cost

two factors, reconstruction,
not

接着上一道题的定位，我们不难发现这道题也出现在倒数第二段。题干中的重要信息除了“two factors”就是这个否定“not”，段落中涉及到这两点的句子只有最后一句话——花费和时间使得人们不得不按照原型的一半来重建这艘青铜器时代的船只。
