Lindsey Stallworth, a high school student from Alabama, is on her way to a promising career in paleontology
(古生物学) due to an unexpected discovery on family property. For years, she had been collecting fossils on their
land in Monroe County, unaware of significant scientific value. However, her teacher at the Alabama School of
Math and Science, Dr. Andrew Gentry, a paleontologist himself, took an interest when she showed him her
collection.
“Upon examining the fossil shark teeth Lindsey presented, I quickly identified one and became eager to learn
about its origin,” said Andrew.
Lindsey guided her teacher through the rural area where she had unearthed various relics, including shark
teeth. Before long, they encountered an especially significant find on the grounds: a large bone from a 34-million-
year-old whale skeleton! This led the pair to launch the huge project of uncovering the rest of the bones. After two
months of hard work, they’ve managed to find the animal’s skull (颅骨).
“Assuming the entire skeleton is present, it may require several years for us to have the entire animal back in
the lab,” Andrew explained.
Lindsey secured a research scholarship to persist in her fossil-digging expeditions alongside her instructor.
Her enthusiasm for the project was at an all-time high, though she had never imagined a childhood pastime would
lead her down this road. “We would go out and pick up shark teeth and fossil shells, but we never knew anyone
that could tell us anything about them,” she recalled. “We just thought they were cool.”
“The Research Fellows Program allows Lindsey to gain real-world experience in scientific research and even
present that research at professional conferences,” Andrew said. “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a high
school student to stand out when applying to college and maybe even discover a new career path.”
4. Why was Andrew fascinated by Lindsey’s finds?
A He had a personal interest in geography.
B. He recognized the significance of one fossil.
C. He was hoping to be financially independent.
D. He wanted to start a paleontology club at school.
5. What inspired Andrew and Lindsey to start a fossil uncovering project?
A. A primitive whale’s bone. B. Some fossil shells.
C. An animal’s skull. D. Some shark teeth.
6. Which of the following best describes Andrew and Lindsey’s project?
A. Risky but interesting. B. Dangerous but rewarding.
C. Demanding but motivating. D. Boring but groundbreaking.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The unexpected joy of discovering fossils.
B. The additional benefits of applying to college.
C. Lindsey’s potential to become a high school teacher.
D. Lindsey’s unique opportunities for future development.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了 Alabama 高中学生 Lindsey Stallworth 在自家土地上意外发现了
3400 万年前的鲸鱼化石，与其古生物学家老师 Andrew Gentry 共同挖掘研究，这一经历帮助她开启古生物
学职业生涯。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“For years, she had been collecting fossils on their land in Monroe County,
unaware of significant scientific value. However, her teacher at the Alabama School of Math and Science, Dr.
Andrew Gentry, a paleontologist himself, took an interest when she showed him her collection.(多年来，她一直
在门罗县的土地上收集化石，却不知道这些化石具有重大的科学价值。然而，当她向阿拉巴马州数学与科
学学院的老师、古生物学家安德鲁·金特里博士展示她的藏品时，他很感兴趣)”以及第二段““Upon
examining the fossil shark teeth Lindsey presented, I quickly identified one and became eager to learn about its
origin,” said Andrew.(安德鲁说：“在检查了林赛展示的鲨鱼牙齿化石后，我很快发现了一颗，并渴望了解
它的起源。”)”可推知，安德鲁对林赛的发现如此着迷是因为他认识到了一块化石的重要性。故选 B
项。
