15、sadvantage)。73.energy信息查找题。根据第三段中的“In modern man,the brain.require only 8%of rest-time energy.”可知,当身体休息而不活动时,动物的大脑消耗更少的能量(energy)。74.impact(s)信息概括题。文章第四段和第五段主要介绍了直立行走的优点和缺点,即直立行走的影响(impact/impacts)。75.guard信息转换题。根据第四段中的“Standing up,its easier to find food or enemies.”可知,直立行走时,人类更容易找到食物或发现敌人,即直立行走使得找

17、知,人类进化之后,有了宽阔的视野和灵巧的双手,但也付出了背痛和脖子痛的代价。即直立行走导致身体的(physical)疼痛。79.beat信息转换题。根据最后一段的前两句可知,我们假设大脑越大,优势越大。很明显,这使得人类成为地球上最强大的动物。拥有庞大的大脑,人类在智力方面可以击败(beat)其他生物。80.fearful/afraid信息查找题。根据最后一段的最后两句可知,人类仍然害怕(afraid)肉食动物。in fear of可同义替换为fearful或afraid。解题技巧解题关键是根据问题查找定位信息。常用方法是带着问题有意识地在关键处做标记。如:(1)5W and 1H:who,w
