Poop Made Useful
Animal waste is becoming a treasure! Scientists have found a special way to use animal poop. They call their project "Poo Zoo". This project helps protect wild animals.
Animal poop has living cells. These cells have DNA, which gives us important information
for breeding programmes and animal protection. This is very important as some wild animals are
getting endangered.
Usually, getting a piece of wild animal skin for research is hard. People have to catch the animals
and make them sleep. This not only takes a lot of time but can also do harm to the animals.
To help endangered animals, Professor Suzannah Williams from University of Oxford in the UK
created the "Poo Zoo" project. The idea is to collect living cells from animal poop and grow the cells in
labs.
At first, the team tried many ways to collect the cells from the mouse poop while keeping them
fresh. After they tried to improve their skills, scientists turned to elephant poop. They cleaned the poop
carefully and took out the living cells.
Professor Williams told CNN that the team had successfully collected live elephant cells many
times. She hopes people use this method in the wild by looking for animal footprints and fur to find
poop.
However, it's not easy to make life from these living cells now. Poop has a lot of bacteria,
so scientists need better ways to grow healthy cells. They also need to learn more about animal
reproduction to turn these cells into babies, said Vice magazine.

解析

【分析】
这是表格型任务型阅读题,解题思路如下:
1. 先梳理表格的整体结构,表格后三个板块分别对应动物粪便的研究重要性、已完成的研究、未来后续研究,第一板块是对整个项目的基础介绍,由此先确定第1空的内容。
2. 逐个定位表格空格对应的原文语句,优先匹配原文的核心含义,同时结合空格前后的语法要求,调整单词的形式,比如被动语态、介词后接动名词、词性转换、连词选择等,确保每空填入的单词语义通顺、语法正确,和原文信息完全匹配。
【解析】
1. 表格第一板块的三点内容都是对“粪便动物园”项目的基础背景介绍,属于整个内容的开篇引入板块,因此填名词Introduction(介绍/引言)。
2. 原文明确提到"They call their project 'Poo Zoo'",转换为被动语态即“这个项目被命名为Poo Zoo”,空前有be动词is,因此填过去分词called/named。
3. 空格后“帮助保护野生动物”是这个项目的目标,the purpose/aim of the project表示“项目的目的”,完全符合语义。
4. 原文提到部分野生动物濒临灭绝,对应部分野生动物的数量正在快速下降,the number of...是固定搭配,表示“……的数量”,填number。
5. 原文提到相关操作"can also do harm to the animals",转换为be动词后的形容词结构,be harmful to表示“对……有害”,填harmful。
6. 原文提到团队最开始从老鼠粪便入手尝试收集细胞,start/begin with是固定搭配表示“以……开始”,动作发生在过去,填过去式started/began。
7. 原文提到团队打磨提升技术之后转向大象粪便,空前的After是介词,后面需要接动名词形式,因此填improving。
8. 本句语义为“在科学家能用活细胞培育出生命之前,还有很长的路要走”,用before引导时间状语从句,符合逻辑。
9. 空格后“粪便里存在大量细菌”是前文“科学家需要更好的方法培育健康细胞”的原因,用because引导原因状语从句。
10. 原文提到科学家需要掌握更多动物繁殖相关知识才能把细胞培育成幼崽,对应固定句型It is necessary for sb. to do sth.,表示“对某人来说做某事是必要的”,填necessary。
【答案】
1. Introduction 2. called/named 3. purpose/aim 4. number 5. harmful 6. started/began 7. improving 8. before 9. because 10. necessary
【知识点】
任务型阅读,词性转换,固定搭配
【点评】
本题属于典型的表格类任务型阅读,既考查学生快速定位原文信息的能力,也侧重同义替换、词性转换、句法逻辑的运用,部分空格需要结合表格板块的整体逻辑推导,学生容易在介词后动名词变形、板块标题归纳这两处出错,需要注意结合语法规则校验填入的单词是否符合空格前后的结构要求。
