Passage One

Questions 56 t0 60 are based on the following passage.

It was once thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic.Today, we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution,the problem is literally worldwide.On several occasions over the past decade,a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic.In fact,the very climate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution.

Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels(coal and oil)is creating a“greenhouse effect”-holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the world’s average temperature.If this view is correct and the world’s temperature is raised only a few degrees。much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New Y0rk,Boston,Miami,and New Orleans will be under water.

Another view, less widely held,is that increasing particulate matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous.A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to new ice age and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.

At present we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen,though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely.Perhaps,if we are very lucky, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will stay about the same as it is now.

56.According to the passage,people today think that air pollution________.

A)exists merely in urban and industrial areas

B)may have an effect on the entire earth

C)causes widespread damage in the countryside

D)is not so serious as it used to be

57.The“greenhouse effect” results from________.

A)the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air

D)the blocking of sunlight

58.What does the author think of the possibility of a new ice age?

Passage One

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.

Thousands of years ago man used handy rocks for his surgical operations.Later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and more recently, rubber and plastic and that was where we stuck,in surgical instrument terms,for many years.In the l960s a new tool was developed,one which was,first of all,to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also,in time,to revolutionize the art and science of surgery,The tool is the laser and it is being used by more and more surgeons all over the world,for a very large number of different complaints.The word“laser”means:light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.As we all know,light is hot,any source of light—from the sun itself down to a humble match burning—will give warmth.But light is usually spread out over a wide area.The Light in a laser beam,however,is concentrated.This means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinpoint-sized beam.Experiments with these pinpoint beams showed researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells.It is now possible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of human eye without harming the front of the eye,simply by passing a laser beam right though the eye-ball.No knives,no stitches,no unwanted damage—a true surgical wonder.Operations which once left patients exhausted and in need of long period of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable。So much more difficult operations can now be tried.The rapid development of laser techniques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting.Perhaps some cancers will be treated with laser in a way that makes surgery not only safer but also more effective.Altogether, tomorrow may see more and more information coming to light on the diseases which can be treated medically.

56.Which of the following is NOT a tool used for surgical operations before the 1960s?

A)Bone.

B)Metal knives.

C)Scissors.

D)Rubber and plastic.

57.The appearance of the laser in the l960s results in_____.A)a complete revolution in the,science of surgical techniques

B)an end to pain brought by all diseases

C)medical help accessible to more common people

D)complete changes in man’s approach to surgery

英语四级培训:http://edu.21cn.com/kcnet1820/ 英语四级一对一咨询qq:1613508081

58.What is the reason mentioned in the passage that the laser beam is so strong?

A)It sends out light to cover a wide area.

B)It has many sources of light.C)It is a highly concentrated beam of light.

D)The source of its heat comes from the sun.59.The author cites the example of eye surgeons to illustrate that

A)pinpoint beams have an extensive energy source

B)pinpoint beams with different sources have different effects

C)pinpoint beams have effects on living cells

D)pinpoint beams enable surgeons to do the most different operation

60.The rapid development of laser techniques means that

A)in another ten years we shall be able to cure cancer

B)we shall be capable of treating all the diseases

C)patients do not have to suffer any pain

D)surgery is likely to improve considerably

Passage Two

Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.

Most people would agree that,although our age exceeds all previous ages in knowledge,there has been no corresponding increase in wisdom.But agreement ceases as soon as we attempt to define“wisdom” and consider means of promoting it.

There are several factors that contribute to wisdom.Of these I should put first a sense of proportion:the capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight.This has become more difficult than it used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the special knowledge required of various kinds of technicians.Suppose,for example,that you are engaged in research in scientific medicine.

The work is difficult and is likely to absorb the whole of your mind.You have no time to consider the effect which your discoveries or inventions may have outside the field of medicine.You succeed(let us say)as modem medicine has succeeded,in enormously lowering the infant death—rate,not only in Europe and America,but also in Asia and Africa.This has the entirely unintended result of making the food supply inadequate and lowering the standard of life in the parts of the world that have the greatest populations.To take an even more dramatic example,which is in everybody’s mind at the present time:you study the makeup of the atom from a disinterested(无利害关系的)desire for knowledge,and by chance place in the hands of a powerful mad man the means of destroying the human race.

Therefore,with every increase of knowledge and skill,wisdom becomes more necessary, for every such increase augments(增强)our capacity for realizing our purposes,and therefore augments our capacity for evil,if our purposes are unwise.

61.Disagreement arises when people try to decide

A)how much more wisdom we have now than before

B)what wisdom is and how to develop it,C)if there is a great increase of wisdom in our age

D)whether wisdom can be developed or not

62.According to the author, “wisdom” is the ability to______

A)carefully consider the bad effects of any kind of research work

B)give each important problem some careful consideration

C)acquire a great deal of complex and special knowledge

D)give suitable consideration to all the possible elements in a problem

63.Lowering the infant death-rate may____

A)prove to be helpful everywhere in the world

B)give rise to an increase in population in Europe

C)cause food shortages in Asia and Africa

D)raise the living standard of the people in Africa

64.The author uses the examples in the passage to illustrate his point that

A)it’s extremely difficult to consider all the important elements in problem

B)success in medical research has its negative effects

C)scientists may unknowingly cause destruction to the human race

D)it’s unwise to be totally absorbed in research in scientific medicine

65.What is the main idea of the passage?

A)It is unwise to place the results of scientific research in the hands of a powerful mad man.

B)The more knowledge one has,the wiser one becomes.

C)Any increase of knowledge could lead to disastrous results without the guidance of Wisdom.

D)Wisdom increases in proportion to one’s age.

56. 【解析】C。细节题。第一段前两句提到,数千年前,轻便的石头被用于外科手术中。之后,人类还使用了锋利的骨头或角、金属制的刀和塑胶。文中没有提到剪刀。故答案为C。

57. 【解析】A。细节题。第一段最后一句提到,这种新的手术工具为外科医学带来了革命性的影响。故答案为A。

58. 【解析】C。细节题。第二段最后一句提到,当一束普通的光聚集成针尖那么大小时,它的能量会非常强。故答案为C。

59. 【解析】 B。细节题。第三段第一句提到,实验证明,来源不同的激光只会对某些特定的活细胞产生作用,即激光来源不同,作用也不同。文章接着就举出了眼科医生治疗眼睛的例子。故答案为B。

60. 【解析】 D。推理题。最后一段提到,将来,激光技术的迅速发展也许能治愈某些癌症,也会使手术既安全又更加有效。由此可推知,医学有望大大进步。故答案为D。

61. 【解析】B。细节题。文章开始作者提出大多数人对“our age exceeds all previous ages in knowledge,there has been no corresponding increase in wisdom.”这种看法

抱着一致的态度。第二句指出“„agreement ceases as soon as we attempt to define“wisdom”and consider means of promoting it.”,所以正确答案是B。

62.【解析】 D。语义题。本题询问“wisdom”在本文中的所指。文章的第二段中对“wisdom”下的定义是“the capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight”。选项D的内容能够反映作者在文中所表达的观点。

63. 【解析】C。细节题。本题询问的细节是:降低婴儿的死亡率可能会出现的情况’。根据文章第二段的描述,我们知道降低婴儿的死亡率可以同时导致“making the food supply inadequate and lowering the.standard of life in the parts of the world that have the greatest populations.”选择项C概括文中所涉及到的本题的内容。

64. 【解析】 A。推理题。作者在第二段中用了两个例子都是为了说明一个主题,即如何理解“wisdom”的含义;第二段第二句对“wisdom”下了定义;第三句作者又阐述了自己的看法“This has become difficult than it used to owing to the extent and complexity of the special knowledge required of various kinds of techniques.”接下来的两个例子都是论证这一观点。选项A准确地表达了这一思想。

65. 【解析】C。主旨题。根据文章的最终结论(即最后一段)可以推断本文的中心思想为:知识的增长还需要智慧的引导,否则会造成灾难性的后果。

Dear fellow students,Good evening.Here comes the coverage of the final basketball match of our school league.The match was held in the school stadium in the morning.One team was from the English Department, and the other from the Maths Department.The game began at 8:30.All the players brought their potential into full play.Both teams took the lead by turns.The biggest margin was less than ten points.It was really the closest game I have ever watched.When there was 5 seconds left, the team from the English Department lagged narrowly behind by two points.At the last second, Li Qiang scored a three pointer and put the English team in lead by one point.The audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.At last, the English team screwed a 7574 win over the Maths team.All of the players on both teams played marvelously, with the leading scorer Li Qiang.He scored 26 points, 10 of them in the decisive final quarter.Besides, he also snatched 9 rebounds.No wonder he was elected the MVP of the game.That’s the exciting report on the game.Thank you.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Letter to the University President about the Goods Promotion on Campus.You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given below in Chinese:

A Letter to the University President

about the Goods Promotion on Campus April 21, 2006

Dear Mr.President,Nowadays the goods promotion on campus is on the rise.When you are taking a nap on the dormitory, you will be disturbed by knocks on the door by a salesman.Most of those goods promoted are of poor quality.Worse still, this poses a potential danger on the security of the dormitory.Why is the goods promotion so pervasive on campus? Firstly, many salesmen believe that college students are naive and can be easily deceived.Secondly, a number of students, especially the freshmen, are in great need of various necessities at the beginning of each semester.Thirdly, some students want to take part-time jobs and earn some money.As for this kind of phenomenon, I’d like to put forward some suggestions.On the one hand, those professional salesmen should not be allowed to enter the dormitory to promote their goods.On the other hand, no promotion activity should be allowed during noon break.I hope in this way our campus life will be left undisturbed.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Letter of Application for a School Loan.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

College Graduates Work as Village Officials

Nowadays many college graduates choose to work as village officials in the remote areas.To this, people’s attitudes differ sharply.Some hold the positive view while others are against it.As far as I am concerned, I believe that it is a wise choice.Above all, college graduates can contribute a lot to the development of the countryside.First, they can apply their professional knowledge there.Secondly, they can introduce new concepts to the countryside and speed the development of rural culture.As a result, the gap between the city and the countryside can well be bridged.In addition, these graduates can benefit a lot from working as village officials.While too many college graduates are fighting for the handful of positions in big cities, these graduates can find themselves a wider stage of development and realize their value.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: How to Keep Psychologically Healthy.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

How to Keep Psychologically Healthy?

One in four people will experience some kind of mental health problem in the course of a year.When you fail to manage to control these problems, they are likely to cause various mental illnesses and, as a result of physiological imbalance, physical illnesses.You may not be able to live a normal life, let alone a fulfilling one.The causes of mental health problems often vary a lot from one case to another.In today’ society, a good number of people are suffering from heavy pressure.Others are lacking in communication skills and feel they are living in an isolated world.In addition, a lot of people are ignorant of psychological knowledge about how to keep mentally fit.There are a lot of ways to curb mental health problems and keep psychologically healthy.Firstly, find the real cause of your mental health problem and see whether you can do something to make a change.Secondly, learn to relax yourself and take exercise to release the pressure.After all, your health is what counts most.Lastly, you may find it helpful to talk to your partner, a relative or a friend about your problems, or seek support and advice from a psychological consultant.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic On a Harmonious Dormitory Life.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

On a Harmonious Dormitory Life

Dormitory life is an indispensable part of college life.But sometimes the harmony in the dormitory will be disturbed in one way or another.For example, some members listen to music late into the night and make those light sleepers restless.Worse still, the smell of some students socks is powerful enough to drive other members out of the room.As is known to all, a harmonious dormitory life is important to college students and benefits all the members.On one hand, we can have a good rest and put our heart into study.On the other hand, we will have a good mood and enjoy being together.In contrast, an unharmonious life will be depressing and counterproductive.There are several ways to create and maintain a harmonious dormitory life.Firstly, you have to evaluate your life style and try to get rid of your dirty habits, if there are any.Secondly, when an annoying situation arises, you’ll just have to learn to tolerate each other and coexist.Thirdly, you’ll have to share with each other and make good friends.In conclusion, we should try our best to build a harmonious dormitory life for the purpose of good study and good life.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic How to Deal with Sub health.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

Study under a Work study Program

Nowadays more and more college students are taking part time jobs as they have more time at their disposal.Some are eager to gain experience and improve their practical skills.Others want to earn some money and relieve the financial burden on their families.But every coin has two sides.On the one hand, part time jobs do much good for us.We can develop our skills and improve our material life as well.On the other hand, we may not be able to put our heart into study in the “gold rush”.Worse still, those who fail to resist the temptation from society will take a wrong road, and even end up in prison.In conclusion, the outcome of study under a work study program depends on how we handle it.We should allot plenty of time to our study, keeping in mind that study should have priority over anything else for us college students, and money is not our purpose but a means to provide us with comfort.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Job searching Experience.You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given below in Chinese:

1.介绍得到这次求职信息的途径

2.叙述这次求职经历的全过程

3.谈谈你对这次经历的感受或体会

A Job searching Experience

Last Friday my English teacher told me that one of her friends was looking for an English governess.I asked for her friend name and phone number and determined to seize the chance.I was a little bit nervous when I went to the woman house.I was told that the talk between us that day would decide whether I could take the job.However, when the woman, Lucy as she was called, welcomed me into her house, I felt much relaxed.I thought as long as I was sincere and friendly I would perform well.The conversation went on smoothly.She seemed much more interested in my habits and hobbies than how good I was at English.Then it seemed that I did the most talking that day.I told her about my family and school life.Obviously I succeeded and from then on I went to teach her English every weekend.Lucy told me later that it was my sincerity that makes her willingly accept me.It is true that there are many tips while seeking for a job, but remember to be sincere.It’s the secret of my success.7

2014年6月英语四级听力真题(第一套)

1.B 本题考查计划或者建议。考点在第二个男士的提议。Use a ladder to help her reach the tea.strain: v.表示拉伸,扭伤,strain your shoulder 拉伤肩膀。

2.D 本题考查对话场景。通过女士提到的“new exhibits”和男士提到的“favorite painters”可推出:Outsidean art gallery.3.B 本题考查语义推断。考点在第二个女士的回应,面对男士的说法,她并没有表示认同,而是婉转表达了质疑。“unfair evaluation”意思是“不公平的评价”。

4.C 2014年6月四级听力短对话解析:本题考查事实细节。考点在第二个男士的话。原文中男士说的 “dosome of them”指的就是修理书架。

5.D 本题考查因果关系。考点在第二个男士所解释的原因。“position”即“职位”,“firm”即“公司”,“turndown”是拒绝的意思,与问题中的“quit”即“放弃,辞职”的意思相同。

6.A 本题考查转折关系。考点在第二个男士语义转折之后的内容。选项 中的“finish”同义替换原文中的 “getit over”,而 “as soon as possible”则改写了

“within this weekend”.7.D 本题考查事实细节。考点在第二个男士所说的话,习惯用语 “dirt cheap”就是“很便宜,白菜价”的意思。选项D中的 “inexpensive”同义改写了“dirt cheap”。

8.B 本题考查语义推断。考点要结合女士的提问和男士的回答。“mechanic”指“机械工”,“busrepairers”指“公车修理师”。Conversation One:

9.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:前2句都是礼节性问答,第3句开始出现新人物 “Janet Holmes”, 即考点预警信号。关键信息就是女士接下来的回答: submitted a job application提交工作申请,asked her infor an interview 通知她面试,对应A选项:She had a job interview to attend.10.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:前文刚刚提到“Janet Holmes”所遇到的问题(因面试不能上课交作业),接着就提到了解决这一问题的方法,关键听取原文中“I’m calling to see whether it would be OK if Igave you her essay.”对应选项C:Submit her roommate’s assignment。

11.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:从四个选项都以特殊疑问词开头的特征可以预判,本题考点是某人的疑问。关键信息是女士在最后所提到的问题:“And Dr.Ellis, one more thing, could you tell me whereyour office is?”对应选项A.Where Dr.Ellis’s office is located.Conversation Two:

12.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:第一题完全符合“前3句出考点”的套路,考点信息出现在明显的信号词 “But”之后:“But it’s bearable now that I’ m used to it”。bearable 表示可以忍受的,be used to 表示为习惯做某事。对应选项C:He can handle it quite well.13.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:本题考查时间细节,所听即所选。关键信息是“It was terrible atfirst, especially getting up before dawn to catch that 6:30 train” 对应选项B:The 6:30 train.14.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:本题考点再次出现在明显信号词But之后:“But now I quite enjoyit.”对应选项C:The time on the train is enjoyable 15.2014年6月四级听力长对话解析:长对话最后一题往往对应整个对话的结尾部分。女士最后问男士在车上如何消磨时光,男士的回答则是考点信息:“In the morning, I just sit in comfort and read the papersto catch up with the news.”对应选项A:Reading newspapers.Section B 16.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:根据短文理解“前3句出考点”原则,如果本文前1、2句的因果关系没有成为考点,考点则顺延到第3句和第4句,关键信息为“They need to extract as much information aspossible from the first or second reading.” extract表示提取、选取,对应选项D:Get keyinformation by reading just once or twice.17.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:从第二段开始,marking skill被反复提到,无疑是重要考点。就做标记的技巧,作者一共提了3个建议,其中

“Third, decide on your own system for marking”几乎完整地被选项A照搬下来:Choose one's own system of marking.根据所听基本即所选原则,答案就是A。18.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:最后一题考察了转折结构,考点信息出现在明显的信号词 ‘Instead”之后:“Instead, you just need to review your marks and you can save a lot of time.”对应选项B:Byreviewing only the marked parts.19.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:答案出现在明显的信号词 “But”之后,即:“But everyone needs somerest to stay alive.”对应选项D:Everybody needs some sleep for survival.20.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:答案出现在明显的信号词 “But”之后,即:“But a man named AlHerpin turned out to be a rare exception”对应选项C:It is a rare exception.rare表示稀有的,少见的。

21.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:根据顺序出题原则,本题对应文章结尾部分。文章最后提到医生对AlHerpin不用睡觉感到困惑,紧接着就解释了原因。“clue”(表示线索)是本题的考点信号词,随后就是考点信息:“He remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he hadbeen born.” 对应选项B:His mother's injury just before his birth.22.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:本题略有难度。考点即没有出现在前3句话,也没有出现在明显的信号词之后,但是只要提前记好了本题关键词,根据“所听基本即所选”原则还是可以找到答案C:She developed a strong interest in finance.该选项对应原文信息

“At the age of six she started reading the daily financial newspapers and openedher own bank account.”

23.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:本题略有难度。考点紧跟在上一题考点句之后,即 “Her father diedwhen she was 21 and she inherited 7.5 million dollars.”对应选项D.She inherited a big fortunefrom her father.24.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:本题难度较大。错误选项中的细节有较强干扰性,但如果考生对最后一段的整体结构有所把握,并且知道第一句中提到的“meanness”的意思,即:吝啬,小气,就能理解后文内容都属于次要信息,是对meanness的举例说明。对应选项A.She was extremely mean with her money.25.2014年6月四级听力短文解析:本题考点就是本文最后一句话 “her daughter built a hospital with hermoney”对应选项B.She built a hospital with her mother's money.26.identical 27.approach 28.back and forth 29.opposite 30.indicates 31.referring to 32.parallel to 33.reserved 34.at a right angle 35.embarrassing

大学英语四级作文练习-记叙文

距离2012年6月份的英语四级考试越来越近,考生应在有限的时间内做好大学英语四级作文练习,在此为大家整理记叙文的思路及大学英语四级作文范文。

大学英语四级作文练习之记叙文的思路与练习

记叙文是以叙述人物的经历和事物的发展变化过程为主要表现形式的一种文体。记叙文既可以以写人为主,又可以以写事为主。写记叙文要注意记叙文的“六大要素”即:

时间(When)—— 何时发生,有没有具体时间?

地点(Where)—— 何地发生,有没有地点变化?

人物(Who)—— 何人参与,谁是主角?

事件(What)—— 发生了什么,有何特点?

原因(Why)—— 事件的起因?

结果(How)—— 事件的经过及结局?

一般说来,在一篇记叙文中这六大要素是缺一不可的。记叙文的思路就围绕这六大要素充分展开。

【例】四级考试中,只出现过一次专门的记叙文体裁的写作,即“An Early Morning Walk”(1988.6.),2003年6月出现过包含记叙文的作文,即“An Eye-Witness Account of a Traffic Accident”。

对于“An Early Morning Walk”,知道命题要求后,我们就要开始构思了。

When:题目已规定了是“清晨”,在这个时候,“我”去散步。Where:到哪儿散步?去公园?在校园里?在街上(街上空气不好,还是不去!)。

Who:在公园里看到晨练的人:中老年人、年轻人、小孩子;在校园里看到读书背单词的学生。

What:人们热火朝天地做操,随音乐跳舞,打球,等等。

Why:清晨空气清新,适合锻炼;一日之际在于晨,背背书,读读单词。

当然,由这个题目可以令人想到很多东西,因篇幅所限,我们做了删减。

大学英语四级作文范文

An Early Morning Walk

One morning I got up very early,and everything around was very quiet.The sun had just risen,shining brilliantly and everything seemed to be covered with a layer of golden silk.There were only some birds singing occasionally in the tall trees.I strolled along the street toward the park,breathing the fresh air and feeling extremely happy.When I arrived at the park,I found,to my surprise,that there were so many people there.Men and women,boys and girls,all were enjoying themselves in their various activities.Some were doing morning exercises,some were playing badminton and some old people were having their tea while talking to each other cheerfully.I wandered around the park.To my delight,I found a few

middle-school students talking to each other in English in one corner of the park.I went up and spoke to them in English.We soon became friends.I was very glad to find another opportunity to practice my spoken English.On the way home,I realized that an early morning walk really was good and healthful.Taking early morning walks makes one healthy and wise.
