M: Let’s see we should probably start by reviewing the four stages the (ants) go to. You know when the developing from the eggs.7 @/ H6 W( S6 [, I5 \
W: Yeah. I wrote that down somewhere on my notes.& N- C* r5 F7 H2 y) F
M: I got right here! Let’s see, they start off the egg, the ant (lays) the eggs after I don’t remember exactly how long they turn...
1 K9 f  t+ ~1 ]; J7 q/ W/ t9 ?W: Oh yeah, yeah here says it. The eggs are very tiny and they hatch in a few days and become (larvae 幼虫)
  ~3 n2 y  Q3 j3 TM: And then they turn into (pupae 甬). That’s one not move at (all and then they)
) O( ~  C$ K# o6 e5 ]8 }8 ]W: I remember something interesting about the pupae stage that’s before they are full in mature and they can get captured by other ants and they become sort of slaves in other [ants] colony.- i, b- S7 R- l6 ?9 ~1 [
M: Yeah, Doctor Lucy even use the term slave maker ants, they’ll be slave maker ants but go into other nests and steal the pupae. So when the pupae grow to adults they are like the slave of the other ants.3 Q+ z3 v4 m7 [( [
W: And these slaves, they actually do the work as the other ants would have to do themselves.. `' l3 q! U7 O
M: Right!
  O6 X5 a  _0 W) J9 CW: But most of the slave maker ants they could do the work for themselves couldn’t they?
- D4 {+ K. L; R2 w! O# r  pM: I guess so, but then there are those (Amazon) ants. Amazon?+ [' m5 n& D7 g0 m
W: The Amazon ants, oh, those were the slave maker ants that are actually depended on the ants they slaved. Now where we start again?
7 N; S% S1 M7 L+ EM: Let me see, here it is. The size of their (mandible 上颚) yeah, it was because they have these really long <curvy> mandibles.7 x1 c! d5 x1 o- G4 v8 W& F4 N
W: Oh, yeah! Those are the (jaws 颚).
7 Q; d; u4 @2 |' B. u! fM: Right! And (those) mandibles are so big that the Amazon ants can’t even get their own food or dig nests for themselves. So they need (the) slaves to get the food and dig the nests for them." a8 L9 c0 F& V7 s. V0 w! h& L. I: d
W: That makes sense! Now could (we) go back (to the part) on how they capture the slaves? We were talking before about how some slave maker ants go into other nest and bring back pupae to become slave. But they can also take over a whole colony, right?1 e; v) L% r. j: H
M: Yeah. Yeah. The queen ant after she mates, she is carrying her own eggs (and) what she does is she goes into another colony of another specie. She takes over the colony and those other ants the slaves start working for her and then she lays her eggs.
+ L( M/ m/ R/ Z; ]W: But the colony she (is there is) already got its own queen, so…8 m+ H; m7 k! N3 K
M: Yeah, if she doesn’t cooperate, the slave maker ant will kill (that) queen and then when she has own eggs, they become adults and they become slave maker ants too.: @8 A* x" m2 Z( F4 P9 {* W

( A' G9 i3 X' ]( x) U* C" y7 WM: Now let’s see professor [Stone] spent a lot of time talking about how animals walk and run. I' {7 m. _; F/ h3 x4 L
remember she started by describing how humans move, and later we went over the (gaits 步态，步法) of different two(-legged) and four(-legged) animals. Like cats, camels, lizards
+ Z/ o5 c4 Y1 fW: Wait. I think I missed (the) class when you (went over) how lizards move. At least, I don’t have any notes on it.
2 ]1 r- v, h1 F/ w+ vM: Well, we talked (in) class about how modern reptiles like lizards run. I think I even copy the diagram the professor drew on the board. Here it is. Now, look at this. Lizards run with (what’s called as) (sprawling 懒散的) gait, their feet (are well out) on either side of their body and they move (diagonally 对角线的) opposite (feet) together. The left (fore foot 前腿) with the right (hind foot 后腿) and the right fore foot with the left hind foot. They use this way of moving when they’re going slowly or quickly. When they move, they bend their bodies from side to side. And they time this bending so that they (increase) the length of their steps.
/ \0 S( O7 P5 J: [# E0 KW: Okay. That makes sense. But I remember reading that, in general, animals evolves so that (their feet) are right (under) their bodies. But I don’t see why?/ K; k- W! o8 d# m/ e
M: That’s because even the (sprawling) gaits suits lizards pretty well, there’s a major disadvantage to this arrangement. Reptiles can’t run and breathe at the same time. They stop (briefly) between short breaths of anywhere from 2 to 12 (strides 一大步距离) because when they move from side to side, the muscles of the left and right sides contract at different times. To breathe though, (these) muscles have to contract at the same time. Mammals don’t have this problem because they don’t move from side to side. Their feet are in the different position.) q* v- {3 Y.

这篇依旧是有很多都听不懂，说明我还是积累的太少，还有就是记笔记时总是试图想记下所有东西，到最后其实记下一大堆没有用的，而关键的却被那些暴力色彩很强的词所掩盖了。

lz每天坚持听写+跟读，按小时计算，大约需要多长时间？

这根据每个人的水平不同，我听写一般要将近2个小时，跟读至少1个小时（一般都不够，1小时达不到盲读的效果）。
