17、声呐系统是可以发现的,借此来进一步否定这个奇怪的声音是由鲸鱼发出的。此段结构此段并列结构,指出文章第一个观点,并提出了演讲者的反驳意见。Paragraph3Second,despitethestatementinthereadingpassagesuggestingthatthesoundswereemittedbygiantsquidthatapproachedthesubmarineswithcuriosity,theprofessorcontendsthatsquidshavealwayslivedintheoceanandthereforeitisunlikelythattheirso
18、undswerefirstdetectedin1960sbutdisappearedby1980.此段功能指出文章第二个观点,即大觥鱼会因为好奇而接近潜水艇进而发出奇怪的声响。然而在演讲中,教授反驳道大跳鱼是一直生活在海洋中的,所以他们发出的声音不太可能在二十世纪六十年代被探测到,然而在1980年又消失了。此段结构此段并列结构,指出文章第二个观点,并提出了演讲者的反驳意见。Paragraph4ThirdztheauthorassertsthattheQuakerswerecausedbyaforeignsubmarinewhiletheprofessorprovesthatthisclaimi

20、现在的技术条件下也不可能建造出那么迅速而静音的潜水艇。此段结构此段并列结构,指出文章第三个观点,并提出了演讲者的反驳意见。三、范文全篇总评1 .逻辑结构全文采用典型的总分结构,在首段指出文章与演讲观点相悖,接下来分三个方面阐述了演讲中的证据,以此来说明文章的观点不成立。2 .语言表达在文章的第四段,作者用一句话表达清楚了全部意思,值得学习。Third,theauthorassertsthattheQuakerswerecausedbyaforeignsubmarinewhiletheprofessorprovesthatthisclaimisindefensiblebypointingoutthatsubmarinescannotmoveorchangedirectionsoquickly,andthattheenginenoiseofallsubmarinesisthesamezmoreover,eventoday,itistechnologicallyimpossibletobuildthatkindsoffastandsilentsubmarines.在这个句子中,while的用法值得注意,放在句中表示对比和转折。by引导方式,后面两个that都引导pointout的宾语从句。另外moreover表示此外,引出另外一层含义。
