The History Of Corn
In the late 140Os, when Christopher Columbus returned to Spain from the western hemisphere, /he brought with him a sample of maize. / We call it more often today, corn. /The corn that Columbus introduced to Europe was the distant descendant of a grass native to Mexico. /The people of the Americas probably started to domesticate this grass as early as 5000 BC. /After about a thousand years, /they had developed a highly productive strand of corn. /Domesticated corn and the people who cultivated it developed together. /Without humans to care for it, /domesticated corn could not survive. /The kernels are crowded together beneath the strong protective husk and silk. /And the young corn shoot is not strong enough to break through the husk on its own. /If people did not strip away the husk and plant individual kernels, /the corn would die out. /
解析
这篇听写材料的难度在于对一些固定搭配的理解,如:break through, strip away,对句型as...as,without... could not...,not... enough to... 的把握有助于对全文的理解。文中的shoot一词可能会对大多数的学生造成困扰,因为这里的shoot 并不是其常用意“射击”,而是“嫩芽”的意思。另外这篇短文中多处涉及专有名词,注意Christopher Columbus,Spain,Europe,Mexico,Americas,BC的大写。
