Nopain, no gain.我们的安排是这样的，第一遍用听力软件精听材料（建议做单句听写，听写的时候不要偷看我给的挖空题），然后按照我给的挖空题填关键词，回复后即可看到听力原文和文章精解，我将把难点和易错点oneby one 分析给大家。
回复填空答案格式如下：1____2____3____...et.al.
If you liked the colorful animals we just saw, you're going to love these next animals. Frogs. You might not normally think of frogs as being colorful, but these frogs definitely are. They are the dart-poison frogs of Central and South America. Look at their striking colors --- often yellow with black ______ or deep blue with black ______.
Beyond being nice to look at, these markings have a _____.They warn predators that these frogs are ______.When threatened, these frogs secrete a _______through their skin that would easily kill whatever animal might try to eat them. Their bright colors communicate this, and so most animals tend not to hunt them.
Now, speaking of hunting, for centuries these frogs were sought after by hunters. As you might think, the hunters didn't want to eat the frogs, but rather, they captured them for their poison. They would add the poison to the tips of their hunting arrows --- of course, nowadays most hunters use guns.
These days dart-poison frogs are of less interest to hunters than to medical researchers. Researchers believe that they can make new heart medicine from the poison, because it acts as a stimulant on the body's nervous system. Researchers think they could use it to stimulate a weak heart.
There is, however, a problem with doing research on these frogs. Those that are caught in the wind will produce their poison until they die. However, those that are born in captivity, like the ones you see here, will not produce any poison at all.
