175 Parasitic wasps lay their eggs directly into the eggs of various host insects in exactly the right numbers for any suitable size of host egg. If they laid too many eggs in a host egg, the developing wasp larvae would compete with each other to the death for nutrients and space. If too few eggs were laid, portions of the host egg would decay, killing the wasp larvae.

Which of the following conclusions can properly be drawn from the information above?

(A) The size of the smallest host egg that a wasp could theoretically parasitize can be determined from the wasp’s egg-laying behavior.

(B) Host insects lack any effective defenses against the form of predation practiced by parasitic wasps.

(C) Parasitic wasps learn from experience how many eggs to lay into the eggs of different host species.

(D) Failure to lay enough eggs would lead to the death of the developing wasp larvae more quickly than would laying too many eggs

(E) Parasitic wasps use visual clues to calculate the size of a host egg


A選項中的size做何解?
最小宿主蛋的大小(數量)取決於大黃蜂下蛋的行為?

If they laid too many eggs in a host egg, the developing wasp larvae would compete with each other to the death for nutrients and space.

由原文~
大黃蜂下蛋的行為在說下蛋的多寡,
若是某一宿主只被下一個蛋,就可判斷出最小宿主蛋的大小.

Re: [問題]OG175

文章haijung » 2005-09-08 16:10

想要請問(C)選為什麼不可以呢?

(C) Parasitic wasps learn from experience how many eggs to lay into the eggs of different host species.

OG的解釋是 "wasps could have inborn abilities to pay appropriate numbers of eggs"

不過這樣會不會太遷強ㄚ? 用了一個 "could" 那是代表可能囉? 如果是題目已經清楚說明了wasp都有天生可以辨別要生幾個蛋的能力... 那就沒問題, 不過沒有ㄚ.... 感覺(C)蠻好的哇... 因為生太多太少都不可以, 所以他們後來就由經驗學到要生幾個. 這樣來當題目的conclusion感覺沒問題ㄚ...

請教各位是不是我有迷失了什麼點呢?

另外ㄚ... (不好意思ㄛ, 要問就通通一起問了唄), (A)選說到

(A) The size of the smallest host egg that a wasp could theoretically parasitize can be determined from the wasp's egg-laying behavior.

我個人認為此選項沒什麼不好, 但是ㄚ... 最後可以由什麼determine的部份, 感覺怪怪的, 為什麼是wasp's egg-laying behavior呢? 如果他說可以由the number of the eggs laid by wasps來determine, 會不會比較清楚呢?

以上麻煩高人指點~~ 感激~~

Parasitic wasps lay their eggs directly into the eggs of various host insects in exactly the right numbers for any suitable size of host egg..

立論中已經明確指出 wasp下蛋的數目跟宿主蛋的大小有直接關係

C 從經驗中去學習要下多少蛋
題目已經說是本能的反應
後面的描述只是去說明過多或過少的影響 而不是說wasp經由學習
才知道這些資訊

A wasp's egg-laying behavior
the number of the eggs laid by wasps來determine
在我看來 這兩個只是換句話說 而且A沒有超出範圍 僅就文章
內容來承述 在歸納類型的題目中 算是破題關鍵

(A) The size of the smallest host egg that a wasp could theoretically parasitize can be determined from the wasp』s egg-laying behavior.
答案是A沒錯 不過有的地方要解釋一下

我一開始的解釋 是 最小宿主蛋的大小可以被大黃蜂下蛋的行為所取決or決定

如果這樣翻譯 很奇怪的意思對吧 說白了 黃蜂下蛋的行為會影響最小宿主蛋的大小

所以真正的問題在determined from 這個字 應翻成 測定或推測

cambridge 的網路字典查出determined 有 to discover the facts or truth about something:的意思

這樣的翻譯變成

The wasp』s egg-laying behavior discover the size of the smallest host egg that a wasp could theoretically parasites

大黃蜂下蛋的行為可以推測出最小宿主蛋的大小

這樣解釋不是合理又符合原意嗎 這題被ETS搞好久

the size of the smallest 其實不是討論重點

175 Parasitic wasps(這裡沒有could/may/are likely to, 他使用現在式, 帶表示一個事實) lay their eggs directly into the eggs of various host insects in exactly the right numbers for any suitable size of host egg. (黃蜂下蛋數量剛剛好符合宿主的蛋的大小) If they laid too many eggs in a host egg, the developing wasp larvae would compete with each other to the death for nutrients and space. If too few eggs were laid, portions of the host egg would decay, killing the wasp larvae. (完全沒有提及學習的行為, 不像有一篇鳥類的築巢行為是經過文化薰陶而非天生的那一篇文章)

Which of the following conclusions can properly be drawn from the information above?

(A) The size of the smallest host egg that a wasp could theoretically parasitize can be determined from the wasp’s egg-laying behavior.
黃蜂能夠寄宿的最小的蛋的尺寸, 能夠從黃蜂的下蛋行為中被判斷出來.
(暗示, 黃蜂下蛋的數量假設是5000>=x>=1000顆, 只要不能承載1000顆的蛋, 黃蜂是不會去下蛋的, 最少最少要可以負荷1000顆蛋, 黃蜂蛋最多大約是5000, 所以最大宿主的蛋可能也可以被推測出來.)
(B) Host insects lack any effective defenses against the form of predation practiced by parasitic wasps.
對抗掠食者? 扯蛋
(C) Parasitic wasps learn from experience how many eggs to lay into the eggs of different host species.
把很多但下到宿主的蛋上面的方法, 黃蜂從這經驗中學習下蛋法?
1. 沒提到學習
2. 下蛋的方法, 還是下蛋的數量控制?
迷惑選項, 文章沒講不要先考慮他.
(D) Failure to lay enough eggs would lead to the death of the developing wasp larvae more quickly than would laying too many eggs
速度, 無關
(E) Parasitic wasps use visual clues to calculate the size of a host egg
