To swim at the same distance to other sea turtles of the comparable size and weight, leatherback turtles spend on average 20 % less energy.
5
Among all the deep diving animals, the champions have always been assumed to be the marine mammals, the great whales and airless seals.

8
Virgin Islands, scientists recorded a 650 pounds female ascended to more than 3 ,000 330 feet and remained there for 37 minutes.

10
causing broken bones or tissue damage.
11
Unlike its hard -shelled relatives, Leatherbugs has a softer shell made up from widely separated ribs embedded in thick tissue.
12
and whole structure is overlaid with a leathery skin.
13
How do the deep diving animals, whales, seals, penguins, and leatherback turtles avoid decompression, sickness, and other hazards while they dive to the great depths,
14
even sleep for a long period of time?
15
Many of the deepest diving marine mammals have a small lungs
16
and falsely exhale before diving in addition to reducing the balance so that they can dive more easily.

18
One reason the leatherback ranges so far may be to specialise the diet
19

20
and other useful minerals that are required during the day.

23
During the 1984 and 1985 nesting seasons, With the assistance of scientists, attach the recorders to 10 female leather bags that just laid eggs.
24
As a result, we are able to monitor the pattern of migration in Atlantic Ocean, when they return to the sea.
25
Some of the longest travel recorded for many animals have been made by this marine turtle.
26
In 1970, a female leatherback was tagged when she nested in Surami on the northeastern coast of South America.
27

35
which can account for 30 % of the animal's total body weight.
36
Since leather bags cannot easily be studied in captivity, researchers have been developing methods of studying them at sea.
37
They use the recorder, an instrument capable of recording location and the depths in C.
38
developed by Gerard Kuhlman of Psychological Research Laboratory.
39
The device has been used to study diving marine animals.
40
Why they keep diving, scientists soon realized that the turtles were probably costing much of the energy to follow their food source.
41
In tropical waters, jellyfish are most common at great depths in a biological zone called the deep scattering layer.
42
Discovered shortly after development of the sonar,
43
This zone consists of a layer of zooplankton below 1 ,800 feet during the day and migrates to the surface at night.

關於本課
在本課中,學習者將通過收聽一段關於皮革背海龜的討論,練習雅思聽力和提高英語發音技巧。學習者將能夠了解皮革背海龜的獨特適應特徵、遷徙模式以及它們在海洋中的棲息習慣。這段錄音不僅富有教育意義,還能夠幫助學習者增強聽力理解能力並提升口語表達。
關鍵詞彙與短語
- 皮革背海龜 (Leatherback turtle)
- 高壓 (High pressure)
- 遷徙模式 (Migration pattern)
- 減壓病 (Decompression sickness)
- 重力 (Buoyancy)
- 龐大的肌肉 (Huge muscles)
- 深水散射層 (Deep scattering layer)
- 記錄儀 (Recorder)
練習提示
在進行雅思口語練習時,特別是針對這段影片的速度和語調,採用shadow speech方法尤為有效。在聽的過程中,可以嘗試模仿內容的語調、節奏和重音,從而提高口語的流暢度。具體技巧可以包括:
- 在觀看影片時,先集中注意力理解內容,儘量對照文字記錄,保持對話內容的關注。
- 重複收聽每個段落,直到能夠自然流暢地跟隨語音而說出相同的句子,這有助於提高提高英語發音的能力。
- 可以使用shadowing site提供的資料來進行更有趣的練習,增強學習的互動性。
- 留意發音中的重音和語調變化,嘗試用不同的音調來表達相同的句子,增加口語表達的多樣性。
通過這樣的練習,學習者不僅能有效提高自身的英語聽說能力,還能對自然界有更深的理解。

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
