主要谈到蝙蝠正在经历一种fungus带来的严重危机,数量大减,为了保护它们,应该做三件事:
1、人们少去蝙蝠洞穴,因为他们把fungus带了过去;
2、研究学习欧洲的一种resist fungus的bats,然后也许能帮助保护;
3、加热洞穴heating caves来消灭fungus。
听力反驳:
1、说人不是主要因素。因为真菌主要是靠蝙蝠在洞之间来回飞传播的,重点是有的洞cave人没进去过还是被fungus传染了,说明控制人这一方面没有多大作用;
2、引进欧洲蝙蝠实用性不强。因为那个蝙蝠免疫的特征是一个复杂的环境因素造成的,然后研究人员对造成这个特点的原因理解还不是特别深入,还需要长时间调查。但是真菌传播很快,可能还没等搞明白fungus早就扩散了,所以这种方法也不靠谱
3 、heating cave人工稍微提高洞穴温度也不现实。因为它可能给蝙蝠造成一种错觉就是他们以为夏天到了,然后蝙蝠就会提前醒来,醒来因为是冬天没吃的,最后还是会大量的蝙蝠被饿死。所以说这种方法虽然杀死了真菌但是也不能保护蝙蝠数量减少所以还是不管用。

In times of economic crisis, local governments often reduce the money they spend in some areas. In your opinion, if a local government is facing economic problems, which of the following areas should it spend less money on?
--Libraries
--Public transportation
--Police
Libraries, public transportation, and police forces are all important parts of society, but they are not all equal when it comes to keeping society running. If one area had to have its funding reduced, it would probably be best to pick libraries.
Law enforcement is necessary to keep society functioning safely, so it would be unacceptable to reduce funding in this area. If we deprive police forces of the resources they need to maintain peace and order, then people would not be able to use things like libraries or public transportation without a sense of fear. They might get ambushed on the way to the library, for example, or mugged while taking public transportation late at night. In fact, these things already happen now—can you imagine how much worse it would be with more poorly-equipped police?
Public transportation is also essential to the functioning of modern society, so cutting corners here would be a bad idea as well. Because modern cities must accommodate enormous populations, weakening public transportation in any way would prove disastrous for millions of people who could no longer get to work or school. If you’ve ever lived in a major city, you’ll know that it’s disruptive enough on days when only a single subway line breaks down; if we cut funding for public transportation, we can expect things to be even worse. And it’s not as if everybody could just drive or bike to work either: the roads in our cities were not built to support entire present-day populations of people all traveling by car or bicycle at once.
Compared with law enforcement and public transportation, libraries are much less relevant to modern society. The main reason is that text materials can now be stored in digital form. Even though libraries are useful to have around for other reasons, their primary purpose as repositories of books can be largely filled by computers and the internet now. Maintaining a brick-and-mortar library costs a lot more than just maintaining a server with digital books. And how many of us really go to libraries anyway? If we looked at the statistics, we would doubtlessly discover that people sought out textual resources in digital form online far more often than they did in book form at libraries.
For those reasons, it seems that libraries are less crucial to the operations of society than both police forces and public transportation. Thus, we should probably choose libraries if we are ever presented with the dilemma of where to cut funding.
