　　【典例1】 Michael Fish may soon be replaced as a weather forecaster by something truly fishier—the shark(鲨鱼)。

　　Research by a British biology student suggests that sharks could be used to predict storms。

　　Lauren Smith, 24, is close to completing her study on shark’s ability to sense pressure。

　　If her studies prove the theory, scientists may be able to monitor the behaviour of sharks to predict bad weather。

　　…

　　It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system。

　　At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas, Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature, while also tracking them using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology。

　　In Aberdeen, she was able to study the effects of tidal(潮汐的) and temperature changes on dogfish—none of which were harmed. She also used a special lab which can mimic(模拟) oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts。

　　She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year. She says she will be looking for a job which will give her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research. (2008·天津卷)

　　44. The passage is most probably taken from _____。

　　A. a short-story collection

　　B. a popular science magazine

　　C. a research paper

　　D. a personal diary

　　45. What do we learn from the first four paragraph of the passage?

　　B. Sharks’ behaviour can be controlled。

　　C. Michael Fish is not qualified for his job。

　　D. Lauren Smith will become a weather forecaster。

　　如：Mary is due to leave at two o’clock。

　　【解析】本文为科普类文章，介绍了一位英国生物系学生对于鲨鱼来预测暴风雨的研究。

　　44. B 推理判断题。本题适宜用排除法。由文章内容来看这是一篇科普文，A、D可删除，由文章的语言来看，并未出现大量的专业术语，可删除C “a research paper”(科研论文)

　　45. A 推理判断题。由第一段和第四段可知，前四段所要表达的含义为If her studies prove the theory, scientists may be able to monitor the behavior of Sharks to predict bad weather。(科学家们可以通过监视鲨鱼的行为来预测不好的天气”。故A 项正确。细节推断题要求学生根据语篇关系，推断具体细节，如时间、地点、人物关系、人物身份、事件等。一般可根据短文提供的信息，或者借助生活常识进行推理判断。解答此类题，不仅需要我们有一定的社会基础知识，而且还需要对细节以及有关背景知识有一个充分的理解。
