第35题答案：neck

对应原文：This particular stork made history because of the long spear in its neck which incredibly had not killed it

答案解析：stork和spear均可提示大家答案即将到来，空前词in its在录音中原词出现，再加上事先可以根据题干猜测出空上应该填某个身体部位，由此确定答案为neck。

第36题答案：evidence

对应原文：This was a truly defining moment in the history of ornithology  it was the first evidence that storks spend their winters in sub-aharan Africa.

第39题答案：recovery

对应原文：This is still common practice today and relies upon what is known as‘recovery’

答案解析：虽然没有明确的关键词提示大家答案即将到来。但题干中词汇的替换都比较明显，depend on对应rely on，called对应known，由此锁定recovery为正确答案。

第40题答案：atlas

对应原文：In 1931,an atlas was published showing where the most common species of European birds migrated to

答案解析：听到1931年意识到答案即将到来，从题干可以推测出空上应该填名词。因为句子结构几乎没有改变，因此很容易锁定atlas，但要拼写出来却不太容易。
