📑27英语-柴荣英一2008年T3阅读精讲课堂笔记
1In the early 1960s Wilt Chamberlain was one of the only three players in the National Basketball Association (NBA) listed at over seven feet. If he had played last season, however, he would have been one of 42. The bodies playing major professional sports have changed dramatically over the years, and managers have been more than willing to adjust team uniforms to fit the growing numbers of bigger, longer frames.
开篇方式:举例开篇(冒号开篇/转折开篇)观察第一段写什么?举例子
中心思想:美国人不长了32题于body growth
31题问作者举Wilt Chamberlain是为了_?
例子:WC以前是1/3超过7英尺,现在是1/42(超过7英尺)(NBA球员变高了)
例子写什么?身高为什么不写别的偏偏写身高?说明主题是”身高”
思考作者写文章举例子的内容和主题什么关系?引出主题例子为主题服务
逻辑关系:
1.however句间转折逻辑
2.数字对比1/3→1/42
season赛季
2The trend in sports, though, may be obscuring an unrecognized reality: Americans have generally stopped growing. Though typically about two inches taller now than 140 years ago, today’s people-especially those born to families who have lived in the U.S. for many generations-apparently reached their limit in the early 1960s. And they aren’t likely to get any taller. In the general population today, at this genetic, environmental level, we’ve pretty much gone as far as we can go, says anthropologist William Cameron Chumlea of Wright State University. In the case of NBA players, their increase in height appears to result from the increasingly common practice of recruiting players from all over the world.
这篇文章中心句/主题句是哪一句?第2段首句
学长
思考第1段和第2段关系?P1引子P2提出观点
P2:这个趋势(身高变化)掩盖了一个事实:美国人不长了
一次是偶然,四次是必然”美国人不长了”说了四次
逻辑关系:
1.though放在句首”尽管”;though放在句中/句尾用逗号隔开表示”转折”
2.冒号作用?开篇冒号引出主题
3.the+n.指代
in the case of关于/至于
result from源于
obscure v.掩盖
3Growth, which rarely continues beyond the age of 20, demands calories and nutrients-notably, protein-to feed expanding tissues. At the start of the 20th century under-nutrition and childhood infections got in the way. But as diet and health improved, children and adolescents have, on average, increased (in height) by about an inch and a half every 20 years, a pattern known as the secular trend in height.
according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, average height–5’9″ for men, 5’4″ for women–hasn’t really changed since 1960.
P3分析原因(生活水平)(32题正好在问原因)
32题问谁在身高增长中起重要作用?
身高增长需要”卡路里(热量)和营养”
一次是偶然,三次是必然”nutrients/under-nutrition/diet and health”营养
逻辑关系:
原文:A demands B
A需要B
题干:B plays a key role in AB在A中起作用
get in the way挡道/阻碍(一)
increase by增加了
4Genetically speaking, there are advantages to avoiding substantial height. During childbirth, larger babies have more difficulty passing through the birth canal. Moreover, even though humans have been upright for millions of years, our feet and back continue to struggle with bipedal posture and cannot easily withstand repeated strain imposed by oversize limbs. “There are some real constraints that are set by the genetic architecture of the individual organism,” says anthropologist William Leonard of Northwestern University.
P4:分析原因(基因)
33题问作者可能同意?
基因角度:身高太高不好
1.大的婴儿不好出生
2.四肢过大让直立行走姿势的身体有压力
birth canal产道
5Genetic maximums can change, but don’t expect this to happen soon. Claire C. Gordon, senior anthropologist at the Army Research Center in Natick, Mass., ensures that 90 percent of the uniforms and workstations fit recruits without alteration. She says that, unlike those for basketball, the length of military uniforms has not changed for some time. And if you need to predict human height in the near future to design a piece of equipment, Gordon says that by and large, “you could use today’s data and feel fairly confident.”
P5基因短期不能改变主题:美国人不长了
34题问在不久的将来_?
原文:如果你想预测人类身高来设计一个装备,你可以使用今天的数据且很自信
说人话:身高没变一次是偶然,四次是必然
recruits新兵新成员
by and large总体来说

本质在问什么?问一个重要因素Aplays a key role in B(暗含因果关系)
痛点1:定位不准(借助题文同序

长难句:
Moreover, even though humans have been upright for millions of years, our feet and back continue to struggle with bipedal posture and cannot easily withstand repeated strain imposed by oversize limbs.
参考译文:此外,尽管人类已经直立行走了几百万年,但两足和背部仍继续同两足行走的姿势相抗衡,因而难以轻易承受过大过长的肢体反复施加的压力.
