科學(xué)史上從來沒有如此像這樣在柯普和馬什爭斗中前進過,互相詬罵,互相野外作業(yè)時扔石塊,然后對新發(fā)現(xiàn)的物種整理得亂七八糟~~~

書本的朗讀語音很charming的磁性英音~~~大家可以好好學(xué)著模仿哦~~~??!
因為原著為美國人所寫,單詞采用美式拼法,不抄全文,也不用寫序號。答完一空換行繼續(xù)下一空作答。文中需聽寫單詞或詞組用[-No-]表示,句子用[---No---]表示。請邊聽寫邊理解文意,根據(jù)下面的TIPS訓(xùn)練聽寫。這樣可以提高聽力準(zhǔn)確度,并為訓(xùn)練聽譯打下基礎(chǔ)哦~~~


TIPS聽寫訓(xùn)練點:單詞拼寫,時態(tài),單復(fù)數(shù),連讀,長難句(請邊聽邊用符號先記下內(nèi)容,然后自己回頭組織語句,最后校對,不要逐字逐句聽寫)當(dāng)然啦,還有很多相當(dāng)?shù)氐啦诲e的表達方法可以順道一起學(xué)到!



Hints:
stooped
scorn



It also marked the start of a war between the two that became increasingly bitter, [-1-] , and often ridiculous. [---2---] Cope was caught at one point jimmying open crates that belonged to Marsh. They insulted each other in print and [-3-] . Seldom—perhaps never—has science been driven forward more swiftly and successfully by animosity. [---4---] Nearly every dinosaur that the average person can name—stegosaurus, brontosaurus, diplodocus, triceratops—was found by one or the other of them. The notable exception being the Tyrannosaurus rex, which was found by Barnum Brown in 1902. [---5---] Between them they managed to "discover" a species called Uintatheres anceps no fewer than 22 times. It took years to sort out some of the [-6-] messes they made. Some are not sorted out yet.



underhand They sometimes stooped to one team's diggers throwing rocks at the other team's. each poured scorn on the other's results Over the next several years the two men between them increased the number of known dinosaur species in America from 9 to almost 150. Unfortunately, they worked in such reckless haste that they often failed to note that a new discovery was something already known. classification
這事兒也標(biāo)志著兩人間一場對抗的開始。對抗變得越來越激烈,越來越骯臟,而且還很可笑。有時候,竟然卑鄙到一方的發(fā)掘人員向另一方的發(fā)掘人員投擲石塊的程度。有一次,有人發(fā)現(xiàn)柯普在撬開馬什的箱子。他們在文章中互相污辱對方,瞧不起對方取得的成果??茖W(xué)往往是--也許從來是--在對抗之中發(fā)展得更快、更有成果。在隨后的幾年里,通過兩個人的共同努力,美國已知的恐龍種類數(shù)量從9種增加到將近150種。普通人說得出的每一種恐龍--劍龍、雷龍、梁龍、三角龍--差不多都是他們兩人中的一位發(fā)現(xiàn)的。1不幸的是,他們干得過于拼命,過于草率,往往把已經(jīng)知道的當(dāng)做一項新的發(fā)現(xiàn)。他倆"發(fā)現(xiàn)"一個名叫"尤因他獸"的物種不下22次。他們亂七八糟的分類,別人花了幾年時間才整理出來,而有的至今還沒有整理清楚。
