英語(yǔ)四級(jí)聽(tīng)力真題對(duì)備考四級(jí)的重要性不言而喻，聽(tīng)力在四級(jí)考試中的占比不小，同學(xué)們還需努力，盡量少丟分。以下是小編整理的關(guān)于2020年12月英語(yǔ)四級(jí)聽(tīng)力真題(含音頻) 短文(3)的資料，希望對(duì)備考四級(jí)的同學(xué)們有所幫助！
Thanks to the International Space Station we know quite a bit about the effects of low gravity on the human body, but NASA scientists want to learn more. To that end, they have been studying how other species deal with low gravity, specifically focusing on mice. The results are both interesting and humorous.
多虧了國(guó)際空間站，我們對(duì)低重力對(duì)人體的影響有了一些了解，但美國(guó)宇航局的科學(xué)家們還想了解更多。為此，他們一直在研究其他物種如何應(yīng)對(duì)低重力，尤其是老鼠。結(jié)果既有趣又搞笑。
The scientists first send some mice in a specially designed cage to the International Space Station. The cage allowed them to study the behavior of the mice remotely from Earth via video. As you noticed in the video, the mice definitely seem uncomfortableat the beginning of the experiment. They move around clumsily, drifting within the small confines of the cage and do their best to figure out which way is up, but without success. However, it's not long before the mice begin to catch on. They adapt remarkably well to their new environment and even using the lack of gravity to their advantage as they push themselves around the cage.
科學(xué)家們首先把一些老鼠放在一個(gè)特別設(shè)計(jì)的籠子里送到國(guó)際空間站。在這個(gè)籠子里，他們可以通過(guò)視頻從地球上遠(yuǎn)程研究老鼠的行為。正如你在視頻中注意到的，在實(shí)驗(yàn)開(kāi)始的時(shí)候老鼠看起來(lái)肯定很不舒服。它們笨拙地四處走動(dòng)，在籠子的小范圍內(nèi)漂移，盡力想知道哪個(gè)方向是向上的，但都沒(méi)有成功。然而，沒(méi)過(guò)多久老鼠們就開(kāi)始喜歡上了。它們能很好地適應(yīng)新環(huán)境，甚至利用失重的優(yōu)勢(shì)在籠子里推來(lái)推去。
That's when things really get wild. The 11th dayof the experiment shows the mice are not just dealing with the gravity change but actually seem to be enjoying it. Several of the mice are observed running around the cage walls.
事情到了真正瘋狂的時(shí)候。實(shí)驗(yàn)的第11天表明，老鼠不僅能應(yīng)對(duì)重力變化，而且似乎還樂(lè)在其中。有幾只老鼠被觀察到繞著籠子的墻壁跑。
The scientists wanted to see whether the mice would continue doing the same kinds of activities they were observed doing on Earth. The study showed that the mice kept much of their routines intact, including cleaning themselves and eating when hungry.
科學(xué)家們想知道這些老鼠是否會(huì)繼續(xù)做他們?cè)诘厍蛏嫌^察到的同樣的活動(dòng)。研究表明，老鼠的日常活動(dòng)基本保持沒(méi)變，包括清潔自己以及饑餓時(shí)進(jìn)食。
