小伙伴們，托福考試大家復(fù)習(xí)的怎么樣了呢？下面是幫考網(wǎng)分享的一些托?？荚嚶犃Σ糠值膹?fù)習(xí)資料，一起來看看吧！

I understand your professor has been discussing several Eastern Woodland Indian tribes in your study of Native American cultures.

我了解你們的教授在你們的美洲原住民文化研究中已經(jīng)討論了一些東部森林印第安部落。

As you have probably learned, the Eastern Woodland Indians get their name from the forest-covered areas of the Eastern United States where they lived.

正如你可能已經(jīng)學(xué)習(xí)到的，東部森林印第安人從他們生活的東部美國的森林覆蓋區(qū)域得名。

The earliest Woodland cultures date back 9,000 years, but the group we\'ll focus on dates back only to about 700 A.D.

最早的森林文化要追溯9000年，但是我們將要集中討論研究的群體只要追溯到大約公園700年。

We now call these Native Americans the Mississippian culture, because they settled in the Mississippi River valley.

我們現(xiàn)在稱呼這些美洲原住民為Mississippian文化，因為他們定居在Mississippi河谷。

This civilization is known for its flat-topped monuments called temple mounds.

這種文明因它的被叫做廟丘的平頂紀(jì)念碑而聞名。

They were made of earth and used as temples and official residences.

Tampa由土制成，并且用作廟宇和官邸。

The temple mounds were located in the central square of the city, with the huts of the townspeople built in rows around the plaza.

廟丘位于城市廣場的中心，和圍繞著廣場的由市民修建的成排的小屋在一起。

The Mississippian people were city dwellers.

Mississippian人是城市居民。

But some city residents earned their living as farmers, tending the fields of corn, beans, and squash that surrounded the city.

但是有些市民靠當(dāng)農(nóng)民謀生，照顧圍繞著城市的玉米地，豆類和南瓜。

The city\'s artisans made arrowheads, leather goods, pottery, and jewelry.

城市的工匠制造箭頭，皮革制品，陶器和珠寶。

Traders came from far away to exchange raw materials for these items.

交易商從很遠過來交換這些物品的原材料。

In the slides I\'m about to show, you will see models of a Mississippian city.

在我即將演示的幻燈片中，你講看到一個Mississippian城市的模型。

I\'m going to talk about a train that exemplifies the rise and fall of passenger trains in the United States: the Twentieth Century Limited.

我將要談?wù)勛鳛槊绹瓦\列車興衰的例證的一列火車：二十世紀(jì)高級快車。

Let me go back just a bit.

讓我來回顧一下下。

In 1893, a special train was established to take people from New York to an exposition in Chicago.

在1893年，一列專列被設(shè)立，載人從紐約去芝加哥的一個博覽會。

It was so successful that regular service was then set up between these cities.

這事是如此的成功以至于定期的(客運)服務(wù)然后就在這些城市間建立了。

The inaugural trip of the Twentieth Century Limited was made in 1902.

二十世紀(jì)高級快車的首次旅行被安排在1902年。

The train was different from what anyone had ever seen before.

這個列車同之前任何人見到的都不一樣。

It was pulled by a steam engine and had five cars: two sleepers, a dining car, an observation car, and a baggage car, which, believe it or not, contained a library.

它由蒸汽機(車)牽引，并且有五節(jié)車廂：兩節(jié)臥鋪(車)，一節(jié)餐車，一節(jié)瞭望車，和一節(jié)行李車，那個(火車)，不管你信不信，包含了一個圖書館。

The 42 passengers the train could carry were waited on by a large staff.

能運載42名乘客的火車，被大量的職員服侍。

There were even secretaries and a barber on board.

甚至還有秘書和一個理發(fā)師在火車上。

It wasn\'t long before people had to wait two years to get a reservation.

不久，人們就不得不要等兩年來得到一個預(yù)約。

As time passed, technical improvements shortened the trip by a few hours.

隨著時間的推移，技術(shù)進步把旅行縮短到了幾個小時。

Perhaps the biggest technological change occurred in 1945, the switch from steam to diesel engines.

可能最大的技術(shù)的改變發(fā)生在1945年，從蒸汽機轉(zhuǎn)換為柴油機。

By the 1960\'s, people were traveling by car and airplane.

到二十世紀(jì)六十年代，人們乘坐汽車和飛機旅行。

Unfortunately, the great old train didn\'t survive until the end of the century it was named for.

很遺憾，這非常了不起的老式火車沒能幸存到它所得名的世紀(jì)的結(jié)束。
