Script
Most people picture sharks as huge, frightening animals, ready at any moment to attack swimmers with their sharp teeth. This idea of sharks, however, contains many misunderstandings.
First, there are about 350 species of shark, and not all of them are large. They range in size from the dwarf shark, which can be only six inches long and can be held in the palm of the hand, to the whale shark, which can be more than 55 feet long.
A second misunderstanding concerns the number and type of teeth, which can vary tremendously among the different species of shark. A shark can have from one to seven sets of teeth at the same time, and some types of sharks can have several hundred teeth in each jaw. It is true that the fierce species do possess extremely sharp teeth used to rip their prey apart. Many other types of sharks, however, have teeth more adapted for grabbing and holding than for cutting.
Finally, not all sharks are ready to strike at humans without warning. In fact, only 12 of the 350 species of shark have been known to attack humans, and a shark needs to be stimulated in order to attack. The types of shark that have the worst record with humans are the tiger shark, the bull shark, and the great white shark. However, for most species of shark, even some of the largest types, there are no known instances of attacks on humans.
16.Which species of shark is the largest one?
A) The dwarf shark. B) The tiger shark. C) The bull shark. D) The whale shark.
正确答案为 D 你没有作答。 解析：
音频中提到共存在350种鲨鱼，但并不是所有种类的体型都很大，它们的个头有可以握在手掌中的仅仅6英寸长的侏儒鲨，也有长于55英尺的鲸鲨（...there are about 350 species of shark, and not all of them are large. They range in size from the dwarf shark, which can be only six inches long and can be held in the palm of the hand, to the whale shark, which can be more than 55 feet long），由此可以得出，鲸鲨的体型最大，所以选D。
