因为原著为美国人所写,单词采用美式拼法,不抄全文，也不用写序号。答完一空换行继续下一空作答。文中需听写单词或词组用[-No-]表示，句子用[---No---]表示。请边听写边理解文意，根据下面的TIPS训练听写。这样可以提高听力准确度，并为训练听译打下基础哦~~~
TIPS听写训练点：单词拼写，时态，单复数，连读，长难句（请边听边用符号先记下内容，然后自己回头组织语句，最后校对，不要逐字逐句听写）

Unfortunately, Wistar failed completely to recognize the bone's significance and merely made a few cautious and uninspired remarks to the effect that it was indeed a whopper.

第六章 势不两立的科学
1787年，新泽西州有个人--到底是谁，如今似乎已被忘却--在伍德伯里溪发现一根巨大的大腿骨戳出一处岸边。那根骨头显然不属于尚存的任何物种，也肯定不是新泽西州的。根据现在掌握的一点情况，人们认为它属于一只鸭嘴龙，那是一种长着鸭嘴的大恐龙。当时，人们还没有听说过恐龙。
骨头被送交给当时美国最杰出的解剖学家卡斯帕•威斯塔博士。同年秋天，他在费城召开的美国哲学学会的一次会议上作了描述。威斯塔没有完全认识到这根骨头的重要意义，只是小心翼翼地讲了几句不痛不痒的话，大意是，它真是个庞然大物。他就这样错过了先于别人半个世纪发现恐龙的机会。实际上，这根骨头没有引起多大兴趣，后来被放在贮藏室里，最后彻底不见了。因此，历史上第一根被发现的恐龙骨头，也是第一根被丢失的恐龙骨头。
