閱讀內容：
❶ Revealing Coloration 00:45 seconds
❷ Many animals use coloration to protect themselves from predators. ❸ One defensive strategy involving the use of coloration is what is known as revealing coloration. ❹ Animals employing this strategy have an area of bright color on some part of their body, this bright color is usually hidden from predators’ view. When approached by a predator, the animal suddenly reveals the area of bright color, this unexpected display of color startles or confuses the predator and provides the would-be-prey with an opportunity to escape.
文字分析
Title:
Revealing Coloration
考生對Coloration一詞較熟，可預測段落解釋重點放在Revealing上。
定義:
❸中重複出現了標題Revealing Coloration，並且有非常明顯的提示詞known as 。結合內容，動物保護色是動物進行自我防禦的一種策略。因此，該句是定義句。
注意點:
很多考生認爲定義句一般出現在段落開頭，但❷中指出許多動物用顏色作爲保護，以預防捕食者的襲擊。這屬於背景敘述，不是定義句。
❹中是對動物保護所採取的strategy的的具體描述，因爲從句較長，考生應該對內容加以概括或適當捨棄。

聽力內容：
❶ There’s a large tropical insect called the Peanut Bug. Yes, like the peanuts you eat. Um, and the ❷ Peanut Bugs front wings are colored so they blend in with their surroundings. But its back wings, which are usually closed and hidden, have these bright colorful spots on them. ❸ And when the Peanut Bugs are attacked, it suddenly opens its back wings and out pop these bright colors. And that surprises the predator and gives the Peanut Bug a chance to get away.
Um, ❹ then you have a butterfly called the morpho butterfly. And parts of the morpho butterfly wings are very shiny. They reflect a lot of sunlight. ❺ When this butterfly is resting, this shiny part of its wings is hidden. ❻ Now morpho butterflies are often attacked by birds. So when a bird approaches, the morpho flies away. And when the morpho flaps its wings, all the bird can see are flashes of light reflected from the morpho’s wings. Those flashes of light make it very difficult for the bird to follow the morpho. And the morpho is usually able to get away.
關鍵點
1 Example :
教授在講座中會用一個例子闡述閱讀材料中的學術話題。在這種情況下，考生在複述過程中，應該儘可能地講出該例子中的細節，並注意細節與細節之間的邏輯關係。
2 Examples:
或者，教授會在講座中用兩個例子闡述閱讀材料中的學術話題，兩個例子可能是有關於教授自身的經歷，也有可能是來自其他方面。
注意點:
如果講座中，教授講述的是一個實驗或者一項研究，考生務必從實驗對象、實驗過程、實驗結果三個方面去論述閱讀中的academic topic.
2 Examples:
❶ 中教授以the Peanut Bug爲例來說明解釋說明Revealing Coloration。
❷ 中，教授說道，Peanut Bugs的前翅是有顏色的，因此呈現出與周圍的環境很和諧的效果。❸中，指出Peanut Bugs一旦被襲擊，就會開啟後翅out pop these bright colors，然後給自己可以逃離捕食者的機會。
❹中教授講了另一個例子the morpho butterfly，來進一步解釋說明Revealing Coloration。❺中指出，當這種butterfly休息的時候，翅膀的閃亮的部分就會被藏起來。❻中，教授繼續說道，morpho butterflies 會遭到鳥類的攻擊，而翅膀的保護色會讓鳥類難以找到它們，而趁機逃跑。
兩個例子可以從“自身擁有保護色”和“藉助保護色逃離被捕食”兩個角度分別敘述。
筆記
2 Examples:
Peanut Bug
前翅colored , 與環境和諧

Morph. butterf.

attacked ,difficu. follow
答題要點：
Example 1:
The first example is peanut bug. The peanut bug’s back wings are usually closed and have bright colorful spots on them. When peanut is attacked, it suddenly opens its back wings to show its bright colors that surprise its predators
Example 2:
The second example is morpho butterfly. Parts of Morpho Butterfly’s wings are very shiny. When the butterfly is resting, the wings are hidden. When the butterfly is attacked by birds, it flaps the wings to reflect flashes of light that can make it hard for birds to catch the butterfly.
答題模板：
In the reading, the article talks about___❶___, (which means___❷___)
In the listening, the professor gives out one/ two example(s) to explain the title.
For instance, ___________❸____________.
The second is___________❹____________.
Therefore, by giving out this/these example(s), the professor tells us the meaning of ______❺______.(optional)
模板解析：
根據拿到閱讀材料，立刻記下標題的原則，❶中說出具體title，之後根據提示詞找出定義句，❷中具體說出definition。如果定義太長或難以概括，可以省略不說。
聽講座時，帶着“老師用什麼例子來進行說明”這個問題去聽。聽力材料的前兩句話，老師會給出所聽內容的概括性介紹。再結合閱讀給出的概念。再聽舉例說明。其方法通常是舉出擴展事例，舉反例或是短文中概念的實際應用。
❸和❹處分別複述講座中教授是如何用一個或者兩個例子，具體說明閱讀材料中的academic topic的。
最後，如果時間有多餘，可以加上結尾句，在❺處重新說出閱讀標題，概括整個回答。
