　　Conversation Two

　　W: Hi, Bill, how is it going?

　　M: Oh, hi, Jan. I'm OK. How about you?

　　W: You can probably tell just by looking at me. I've been really busy. Hey, what are you reading?

　　M: A pretty interesting article. My biology professor assigned it, and I thought I just look it over. But I got really involved in it. It's about endangered species.

　　W: That sounds pretty interesting. (5) I'm getting frustrated with the two research papers I'm struggling with.

　　M: Oh?

　　W: (8) And can you believe they are both due on the same day?

　　M: That's tough.

　　W: I'll get through it. So what's this you are reading?

　　M: Well, (6) it's basically about the choices conservationists faced with. You know, on these days when funding is so hard to come by.

　　W: Wait a minute. Is the focus on biology or economics?

　　M: Both. (6) Conservationists don't have enough funding to save every endangered species in the world, so they have to decide based on what would be lost if a species became extinct.

　　W: Can you give me an example of what you mean?

　　M: Take for instance, two animals, the spotted owl and the tailed toad. (7) The article says the toad is unique. It has no relatives. But there are a lot of varieties of owls.

　　W: (7) So, if that toad became extinct, we'd lose an important link in the chain of evolution, right?

　　M: (7) Exactly. But that isn't so for the owl. So for conservationists, it might be clear choice of which animal to save.

　　W: I see. I am glad I don't have to make that kind of decision. Aren't you?

　　5.Why is the woman so busy?

　　6.What problems do conservationists have?

　　7.What can be inferred about the tailed toad?

　　8.What can we learn from the conversation?

　　【小题6】对话中男士说他看的书是关于在资金难以筹集的今天，自然资源保护论者所面临的选择。他们没有足够的资金去挽救全球濒危动物，因此他们不得不根据某个物种灭绝所带来的损失来做出决定。由此可知，本题答案为 C。

　　【小题7】对话最后男士说这种长尾蟾蜍独特之处在于它没有任何的亲缘同类，女士于是得出结论说如果这种蟾蜍绝种的话，对于进化研究就少了一个重要的线索，随后男士对此表示肯定，故选 D。
