12、en out by our family doctor when he read the thermometer and found you were running a slight fever. Part II Reading Task Text A Comprehension Possible answers to content questions: 1. His major was natural history. He was especially interested in the study of insects. 2. Professor Agassiz told Scudd

13、er to take a fish from a huge jar of specimens and look at it. As to the care of the specimen, he instructed Scudder to keep the fish before him in a tin tray, occasionally moisten the surface with alcohol from the jar, and always take care to replace the stopper tightly. 3. The specimens were kept

14、in huge neckless glass bottles with leaky, wax-besmeared corks, which were half eaten by insects, and begrimed with cellar dust. 4. He felt a passing feeling of disappointment. Gazing at a fish was not a pleasing idea to an ardent entomologist. 5. Scudder thought in ten minutes he had seen all that

15、could be seen in that fish. During the next few hours of observation, he gazed at the fish from various angles and could discover little more except that his mute companion looked ghastly. 6. In the afternoon, it occurred to Scudder that he would draw the fish. When he tried to draw the creature, he

16、 began to discover new features in it. 7. By saying “a pencil is one of the best of eyes,” Professor Agassiz meant that when his student began to draw the fish with a pencil, he necessarily had to examine the object under observation more closely and more attentively and consequently he would discov

17、er more about it. It was in this sense that a pencil was deemed one of the best eyes. 8. Professor Agassiz commented that Scudder had not looked very carefully, and that he hadnt even seen one of the most conspicuous features of the animal, which was plainly before his eyes as the fish itself. He fu

18、rther instructed that Scudder should look again. 9. Scudder was piqued and mortified by Professor Agassizs criticism. But when he set himself to the task with a will, he discovered one new thing after another, until he saw how just the Professors criticism had been. 10. Scudder found it disconcertin

19、g because he must not only think of his fish all night, studying what that unknown but most visible feature might be, without the object before him, but also give an exact account of his discoveries the next day, without reviewing them. 11. The fishs most conspicuous feature Scudder missed at first

20、was that the fish had symmetrical sides with paired organs. 12. Look, look, look, was the Professors repeated injunction. Scudder considered this the best entomological lesson he ever had because its influence had extended to the details of every subsequent study. It was a legacy of inestimable valu

21、e the Professor had left to him and so many others which they could not buy, with which they could not part. 20 Text Analysis 1.

22、n the afternoon, Scudder discovered new features in the fish but failed to notice its most conspicuous characteristic. Scudder discovered one new feature after another when he began to work in earnest and saw how just the Professors criticism had been. By the end of the third day, Scudder had learne

23、d the best entomological lesson in life, one that was to guide his subsequent study and research. The eight months Scudder spent studying haemulons was of greater value to him than years of later investigation into insects. Part Three Paras14-18 Part Four Paras 19-24 Part Five Paras 25-28 2.

He was particularly good, I recall, on apes and monkeys, rushing about, waving his arms and hooting ferociously. Not that he was a ferocious character.
