http://www.xiexiebang.com, a career network Website, did a survey of 239 HR professionals.According to the results, 77 percent of respondents believe that an online degree earned at an accredited institution like Duke or Stanford is more credible than one earned at an Internet-only institution.Other sources, such as Thomas L.Russell of North Carolina State University, did studies that revealed that there is little if any difference in the quality of education received through online distance learning versus traditional classrooms.John Losak at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale found similar results in his own study.He analyzed graduation rates, time to graduation, and knowledge, as well as other elements.He found the students performed as well or better in online courses.As more and more people get online degrees and use them in the workforce, HR managers and hiring managers will begin to feel more secure about the quality of education these people have.If the studies that were done by Thomas L.Russell and John Losak — showing the quality of online education to be as good as or better than that of traditional education — hold up on a larger scale, then the future of getting jobs and advancements based on online degrees will be bright.Until then, choose schools carefully, and check for accreditation and strong programs.When you’ve completed the degree, go to job interviews armed with information to counter any questions about the quality or validity of your degree.Make sure the interviewer knows how you achieved the degree, how you worked it into a busy schedule, how you overcame any obstacles.It will show a self-motivation and discipline that may be just the qualities the company is looking for.http://www.xiexiebang.companying slides.B)One that is simply put online as text.C)One without video or audio.D)One with interaction during the lecture.4.Great content is more easily absorbed if it’s done in a ________ manner.A)static and innovative B)traditional and obsolete

5.What is the most important part of online communication?
A)To use chat rooms and instant messaging to communicate.B)To find a program that has interaction built into it.C)To find an established method for interaction.D)To use video conferencing to communicate.http://www.xiexiebang.companies are looking for according to the passage?
A)Quality of your degree.B)Validity of your degree.C)Self-motivation and discipline.D)Ability to overcome obstacles.8.A school that is dedicated to its online programs will have the _______ and the support staff to make it successful.9.The reputation of the school, however, may not be as __________ as you think.10.Students, particularly __________, learn more by doing than by simply listening.(Reading in Depth)(25 minutes)
■ Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage through carefully before making your choices.Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 11 to 20 are based on the following passage.http://www.xiexiebang.communicate, perpetuate and develop their own knowledge about and attitudes towards life.”
Why is it important that you 12 about other cultures? There are a number of reasons.Some may do it 13 because they find fascinating the different ways that people think, speak, act, evaluate, and communicate.But let me assume that you are a more pragmatic sort of person, and are 14 in the “cash value” of a course like this — apart, that is, from the grade you will receive at the end of it.What is a class like this good for? Let me make a couple of suggestions on how what you learn in this class may prove 15 to you in the future:
Business: Geert Hofstede’s excellent book on culture is 16 not primarily out of academic theory, but out of his study of the practical problems faced by one particular modern corporation(IBM), which exists across national and cultural 17.In the world we live in, understanding 18 in general and also specific individual cultures in particular can make the difference between success and failure in the global market and economy.Politics and Diplomacy: If your career goal involves anything that relates to international politics and diplomacy, then understanding other cultures is 19.Neighbors: If none of these previous factors 20 you, then you can just look at this class as a lesson in good neighborliness in the global village.A)learn I)boundaries
B)written J)ways
C)means K)motivates
D)simply L)important
E)exactly M)disturbs
F)interested N)read
http://www.xiexiebang.common sense: Wash your hands frequently, cover your coughs and sneezes and stay home from work or school if you feel ill.These guidelines may seem basic, but they’re effective in warding off the spread of infections.Richard Besser, acting director of the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC), said, “Control of an outbreak of infectious disease is a shared responsibility.It’s important that individuals realize they have a key role to play in reducing their own likelihood of getting infected.”
Specifically, people are wise to wash their hands often with soap and warm water for 15 to 20 seconds at a time or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer if water isn’t accessible.The CDC also recommends avoiding touching your eyes, nose and mouth to prevent the spread of germs.Symptoms of swine flu are similar to those of regular seasonal influenza.People with swine flu often get a fever, headache, cough, sore throat, body aches, chills and fatigue.Some also have gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea or vomiting.Swine flu is a virus that usually affects pigs but appears to have acquired the ability to pass from person to person, though it’s unclear how easily it can be transmitted this way.http://www.xiexiebang.come sick, stay home for the period of infection, which is typically seven days, although children may be contagious for longer.Once on the mend, don’t return to work or school until at least a day after symptoms have disappeared, Besser said.“Wearing a face mask when out in public isn’t warranted in most cases,” he said.“I know some people feel more comfortable having a mask, and there are certain circumstances where that may be of value, but I would rather people really focus on hand-washing, as well as covering coughs and sneezes.”
Other social practices may need to be adjusted, such as the salutary kiss that’s customary in some regions.“If you’re in an affected area or you have the swine flu, it’s probably best not to give a kiss,” Besser said.“But we’re not recommending the end of affection during the period.”
21.To protect yourself from swine flu, it is a good idea to __________.A)have baths frequently B)cover your coughs and sneezes
C)stay home from work or school if you feel tired D)eat an apple every day
22.The underlined phrase “warding off” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_______”.A)investigating B)increasing C)preventing D)decreasing
23.What does Richard Besser mean by saying “Control of...getting infected.”?
A)It is the government’s responsibility to fight against infectious diseases.B)It is the patients’ responsibility to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.C)It is everybody’s responsibility to control the outbreak of infectious diseases.http://www.xiexiebang.comfortable and is affordable.C)It isn’t as effective as hand-washing and covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze.D)It is more effective than hand-washing and covering coughs and sneezes.Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Sixteen-year-old Karlos Dearman’s future is looking much brighter than he might previously have imagined.“I’ve always been into bikes, but never thought I’d end up working with them,” he says.“This scheme has changed my life.”
Karlos is learning to refurbish(翻新)old bicycles in the workshop of ReCycle Bikes, a local community charity in Sheffield, which has a contract with the city council to provide training opportunities for young people aged 14 to 16, particularly those struggling in mainstream education or excluded from school.http://www.xiexiebang.community charity that provides training opportunities for young people.C)It is a contract signed between a local community charity and the city council.http://www.xiexiebang.community organizer for a small Chicago church-based group for three years, helping poor South Side residents 42 with a wave of plant closings.He then attended Harvard Law School, and in 1990 became the first 43-American editor of the Harvard Law Review.He turned down a 44 judicial clerkship, choosing instead to practice civil-rights law back in Chicago, 45 victims of housing and employment 46 and working on voting-rights legislation.He also began teaching at the University of Chicago Law School.Eventually he 47 as a Democrat for the state senate seat from his district, which included both Hyde Park and some of the poorest ghettos on the South Side, and won.In 2004 Obama was 48 to the U.S.Senate as a Democrat, representing Illinois, and gained national attention by giving a rousing and 49 keynote speech at the Democratic

Vocational Choices
Vocational choices mean what kind of positions you want to take after graduation.Different people hold totally different attitudes towards vocational choices.http://www.xiexiebang.comprehension of professional knowledge.Reading Comprehension
(Skimming and Scanning)
1.A)。参见Online Learning Programs小标题下“Online degree programs follow much the same routines as traditional learning, with a few twists....”可知,网络教育项目在很多方面沿袭着传统的学习方式,但是还是有些许不同。比如说,如果举行讲座,你不必亲自到场参加就可以听到。
2.A)。题干问为什么有些学校在开始的时候要求有训练营?参见Online Learning Programs小标题下最后一段可知,在训练营中你会见到其他学生、指导老师以及其他辅助人员;你会学习如何使用技术,如何使用图书馆以及检索系统,并开始你的课程。
3.D)。参见Evaluating the Program小标题下第一个要注意的问题的相关内容可知,老师做讲座的方式应该认真考察一下,从哪些方面考察,哪些是比较好的方式呢?比如是否使用幻灯片,是否使用音频视频材料,讲座中间是否有互动,讲座是否只是以文本的形式挂在网上等等。
4.C)。参见Evaluating the Program小标题下列举的第一个要注意的问题的相关内容可知,如果以充满活力和创新的方式授课,那么主要内容可以更容易掌握。
5.B)。在线交流的关键问题是什么?参见Evaluating the Program小标题下列举的第二个要注意的问题的相关内容可知,考察一个在线交流的项目,关键是看这个项目是否设计或要求互动。
6.B)。参见The Employer’s View小标题下第三段第一句可知,越来越多的人获得网络教育学位,并在职场中使用这样的学位,雇主对他们所受教育的质量也开始更加信任了。
http://www.xiexiebang.common sense: Wash your hands frequently, cover your coughs and sneezes and stay home from work or school if you feel ill.”可知,保护自己远离swine flu或其他传染病的最好方法是掌握一些常识,比如:勤洗手,咳嗽或者打喷嚏的时候遮住口鼻,如果不舒服就待在家里不要出门。结合四个选项可以判断答案为B)。
22.C)。根据第二段首句“These guidelines may seem basic, but they’re effective in warding off the spread of infections.”可知,这些方法看起来很简单,但是却可以有效防止传染病的扩散。结合四个选项可以判断答案是C)。
23.C)。根据第二段Richard Besser所说的话“Control of an outbreak of infectious disease is a shared responsibility.It’s important that individuals realize they have a key role to play in reducing their own likelihood of getting infected.”可知,控制传染病的传播每个人都应该担负起责任,C)选项表达的意思与文章内容相符。
24.D)。根据第五段“Swine flu is a virus that usually affects pigs but appears to have acquired the ability to pass from person to person, though it’s unclear how easily it can be transmitted this way.”可知,swine flu通常在猪的身上发病,但是现在看来,已经开始在人类之间传播。故D)选项为正确答案。
25.C)。根据倒数第三段Richard Besser所说的话可知,虽然人们感觉带口罩比较放心,而且在某种环境下口罩确实起到一定作用,但是,在大多数情况下,在公共场所即使佩戴带口罩也起不到保护作用,所以,Richard Besser还是建议人们把预防的重点放在勤洗手以及打喷嚏和咳嗽时遮住鼻口上面。
http://www.xiexiebang.community charity in Sheffield...”可知,Recycle Bikes是一家社区慈善机构,该机构与城市委员会有一个合同,旨在为14到16岁的年轻人提供培训机会。结合四个选项可以判断答案为B)。
27.A)。根据第四段的首句可知,这家慈善机构最初主要是通过修理公众捐赠的破旧自行车,翻新卖出后获得运营经费。
28.A)。根据第五段首句可知,整个句子的意思是,大学生群体是一个很大的潜在消费市场,因此该慈善机构与Sheffield大学合作,在校园出售价格优惠的自行车。
29.C)。根据倒数第二、三两段可知,该慈善机构在成立之初只有Pearce一人,现在该机构已经发展成为拥有很多员工并有一定资源的组织。他们可以对完成培训的学员的职业发展进行跟进了解,而最初他们通常是通过侧面从学校了解一些情况。由此可以推断,最初他们不能做到跟进了解的原因是他们没有足够的能力(人力、财力)。
30.D)。根据文章最后一句Pearce的讲述可知,大部分孩子都骑过自行车,而且知道怎么给车链子上油、怎么修理最常见的损坏。自行车是一种价格不高的交通工具,而且骑自行车给人独立自由的感觉。同时骑自行车还有利于环保,无怪乎自行车销量增长,年轻人对修自行车感兴趣。

大学英语四级考试全真预测试题一答案与解析
Part ⅠWriting
【写作思路】
本文是一篇关于代沟的议论文。从代沟的现象开始讨论,接着提出代沟产生的家庭原因以及社会原因。
【参考范文】
Generation Gap
Generation gap seems a hot topic between the old and the young.Parents complain that children don‟t show them proper respect and obedience, while children complain that their parents dont understand them at all.Often they discover that they have very little in common.One cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life.In traditional societies, children lived in the same area as their parents, married people their parents knew and approved of, and often continued the family occupation.In our society, people often move out of the home at an early age, marry or live with people their parents have never met, and choose occupations that are rather different.Parents often expect their children to be better than them.However, these ambitions for their children are another cause of the division between them.Finally, the speed of change in our society is another cause of it.In the traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date.No doubt, the generation gap will continue to be a feature of our life.Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society, and in the rapid pace at which society changes.Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)
原文精译
动物的运动
除了缺少剧情音乐之外,这看上去就像《大白鲨》影片中的一个场景:一条巨大的鲨鱼在水中慢慢地游着,尾巴就像钟摆一样来回地摆动。
突然,它敏感的皮肤神经末梢感受到了猎物游动时发出的震动。瞬间,它就变成一台高效致命的死亡机器。它绷紧肌肉,快速地在水中砍出一条通道。眨眼之间,它便用强有力的嘴巴咬住了它的猎物,一条大鱼。随后,它来回扭动着头,从猎物的身上撕下大块大块的肉,把它们吞了下去。很快地,猎食活动就结束了。
为了生存而移动
鲨鱼追逐猎物的过程以一种夸张的方式证明了移动(或者运动)对于动物的重要作用。
像鲨鱼一样,大部分的动物通过移动来发现食物。他们还利用移动来逃避敌人、寻找配偶、开拓新的地盘。移动的方法包括:爬行、跳跃、滑行、飞行、飘浮或者漫步。
借助各种有助移动的发明,人类加强了其移动优势,可以在任何环境下移动。汽车、火箭、潜艇能把人类从深海运输到遥远的月亮。然而,对于其他的动物而言,移动来源于数百万年的进化。鲨鱼是其中最成功的例子。它能够以接近零的时间快速地捕获猎物,这给科学家们留下了深刻的印象。但是,经过仔细地研究,美国杜克大学的海洋生物学家S.A.Wainwright、F.Vosburgh和J.H.Hebrank才发现了鲨鱼是如何做到这一点的。在研究中,科学家们对位于佛罗里达州圣奥古斯丁海上乐园泳池中游泳的鲨鱼进行了观察。他们拍摄了鲨鱼的运动情况,对它们进行了分析,同时也对鲨鱼的皮肤和肌肉进行了研究。
皮肤是关键
生物学家们发现,鲨鱼的皮肤是它们在水中高效游动的关键。鲨鱼的皮肤中含有许多纤维,像子午线轮胎的内部一样交错在一起。这些纤维被称为胶原纤维。随着它们的放松或拉紧,这些纤维可以储存或释放大量的能量。当拉伸纤维时,纤维中蓄满了能量,就像绷紧的弓弦一样。能量被释放后,纤维就松弛了。
杜克大学的生物学家发现,最大拉伸发生在鲨鱼弯曲身体游动的时候。当身体前后移动时,弯曲处外侧的纤维受到强烈的拉伸,大量的潜能被储存在纤维中。当鲨鱼朝另一个方向迅速掉头时,这种能量就被释放出来了。
随着能量在鲨鱼身体两侧交替地储存和释放,它的尾巴就像鞭子一样强烈地来回摆动。这种像皮鞭一样的动作促使鲨鱼像发射的子弹一样在水中穿来穿去。
能量的来源
是什么让纤维能存储如此多的能量呢?在追寻答案的过程中,杜克大学的科学家们发现,鲨鱼与子午线轮胎的相似性并不仅仅存在于皮肤上。正如子午线轮胎是由压力膨胀的一样,在鲨鱼胶原辐射处的下方也有一个膨胀区。但是,鲨鱼体内的压力可能来自于血液压缩胶原纤维而产生的压力,而不是来自于空气的压力。
当鲨鱼缓慢游动时,纤维内的压力相对较低。纤维比较松弛时,鲨鱼就能以锐角的角度弯身。在寻找食物或只是游动时,鲨鱼以这种方式进行移动。但是,当它发现重要的食物来源时,一些奇妙的变化就自动发生了。
鲨鱼内部的压力可能会增加10倍,胶原纤维在这种压力下剧烈拉伸,蓄积了大量的能量。
接着,这种能量被转移到尾巴上,鲨鱼快速运动起来,剩下的事情就可想而知了。
海豚是速度最快的纪录保持者
海豚是另一种快速的海洋动物,这种海洋哺乳动物的速度为每小时20英里。研究海豚的生物学家们发现,就像鲨鱼一样,海豚的快速游动可以追溯到其皮肤。海豚的皮肤是这样构成的:它对流过其身体的水流产生的阻力很小。通常情况下,当鱼或其他动物在水中缓慢游动时,水流会平稳地流过它们的身体。这种平稳的水流被称为层流。然而,当鱼快速移动时,其周围的水流就变得湍急起来。这种乱流使摩擦加大,降低了鱼的速度。
海豚的皮肤弹性很大,可以随着水波的波形而弯曲。
实际上,水波是被卷进了海豚皮肤的皱褶处。这样,其余的水就以层流的方式从其身边平稳地流过。其他动物快速游动时,由于受到乱流的阻碍,其速度就降低了;但是,海豚却能够以破纪录的速度在水中快速穿行。
其他的低速动物
并不是所有的动物都能像鲨鱼和海豚一样快速地游动。在运动效率方面最大的输家可能是蛞蝓(鼻涕虫)。它看起来就像没有壳的蜗牛,其爬行过的地方会留下一条细细的踪迹。它要使用大量的能量制造黏滑的黏液,以便在其上爬行。移动同样的距离,老鼠只需要其所耗费能量的十二分之一。
科学家们认为,由于蛞蝓(鼻涕虫)利用能量的效率很低,所以它的生活必然受到一定的限制。换句话说,它们都被迫把自己束缚在很小的区域之中来搜寻食物和寻找合适的生活条件。人类曾经面临过这样的问题吗?
1.【答案】D)
【解析】属同义转换题,本题是一种排除选择题。根据题干中的中心词“movement to do something”,可以将答案定位在小标题“Moving to Survive”下第二段的前两句话,“Like the shark, most animals use movement to find food.They also use locomotion to escape enemies, find a mate, and explore now territories”。该句与题干是一种同义转换,选项A)、B)和C)在原文中均有提及,所以不是正确选项;答案D)在原文没有提及,所以是正确答案。
2.【答案】B)
【解析】属细节推断题。题干考查汽车、火箭和潜艇的例子是为了说明什么,其中的“examples of automobiles, rockets and submarines”是关键词,可以将答案定位在文章小标题“Moving to Survive”下第三段的前两句话,“Humans have the added advantage of using their various inventions to move about in just about any kind of environment.Automobiles, rockets, and submarines transport humans from deep oceans to as far away as the moon”,第二句话所举例子正是为了说明第一句话的内容,这与B)项意思一致,而其他选项在文中均未提及。
3.【答案】A)
【解析】属细节推断题。分析题干,本题考查鲨鱼在水中快速游动的关键是什么。其中的“key”是关键词,可以将答案定位在小标题“Skin Is the Key”下首段的第一句话,“The biologists discovered that the skin of the shark is the key to the animal‟s high efficiency in swimming through the water”,这与选项A)完全一致,所以直接选择A)即可。其他选项在文中均有提及,但是都不符合题干的要求。
4.【答案】D)
【解析】属细节推断题。题干中的“the Duke University scientists”是关键词,可以将答案定位在小标题“Skin Is the Key”下第二段的第一句话,“The Duke University biologists have found that the greatest stretching occurs where the shark bends its body while swimming”。这与选项D)的内容完全一致,所以答案选D)项,而其他选项原文均未提及,为干扰项。
5.【答案】C)
【解析】属细节推断题。题干中“a belted radial tire”是关键词,可以将答案锁定在文章小标题“Source of Energy”下第一段的第三句话,“Just as a radial tire is inflated by pressure, so, too, is the area just under the shark‟s collagen „radials‟”。其中的“just as”和“so”正说明了两者的相似之处在于“inflated by pressure”,所以答案应该是C)。选项A)和B)是两者的不同之处,选项D)在文中没有提及。
6.【答案】A)
【解析】属细节推断题。题干中的关键词是“a laminar flow”,所以可以将答案锁定在文章小标题“Dolphin Has Speed Record”下,根据该节第一段的倒数第三、四句话,“Normally when a fish or other object moves slowly through the water, the water flows smoothly past the body.This smooth flow is known as laminar flow.”。题干是对这两句话的改写,所以正确答案是A)选项。其他三个选项的意思均不符合“a laminar flow”的定义,与题干要求不符。
7.【答案】C)
【解析】属同义转换题。题干中“a slug”和“a mouse”均为关键词,可以直接定位在小标题“Other Animals Less Efficient”下第一段的第二句话,“It uses so much energy...a mouse traveling the same distance uses only one twelfth as much energy”。题干是对该句的同义改写,所以正确答案是C)12 times,其他选项均与原文内容不符。
8.【答案】feeling the vibrations of a struggling prey
【解析】鲨鱼靠感受猎物游动的震动来发现猎物。
9.【答案】collagen fibers
【解析】在Skin Is the Key中,第二、三句话,The fibers are called collagen fibers。
10.【答案】some fantastic involuntary changes
【解析】 在Source of Energy中,第二段倒数第一句话就是本题答案。Part ⅢListening Comprehension

W:It wasn‟t that easy.She had to mow the lawn and water the house plants.And when Eric house-sat for Dr.Cohen, he had to take care of her pets.M:House-sitting sounds like a good job.I guess it‟s a little like baby-sitting, expect you are taking care of the house instead of children.W:The Student Employment Office still has a few jobs posted.M:Do you have to fill out an application?
W:Margaret and Eric had to interview with the house owners and provide three references each.M:That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.W:Well, the house owners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitter.You know, they want to make sure you‟re not the type who‟ll throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you.M:House-sitters who do that sort of things probably aren‟t paid then?
W:Usually they‟re paid anyway just because the house owners don‟t want to make a fuss.But if the house owner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn‟t be able to get another job.So why don‟t you apply?
M:Yeah, I think I will.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19.What does the man want to do this summer?
20.What did the Dodds do when they went away last summer?
21.What is one responsibility the house-sitter probably wouldn‟t have?
22.How do house owners determine the reliability of a house-sitter?
19.【答案】D)

21.【答案】C)
【解析】 House-sitting sounds like a good job.I guess it‟s a little like baby-sitting, expect you are taking care of the house instead of children.从这句话中可看出 house-sitting的工作类似于保姆 baby-sitting,只是除了要照顾孩子。
22.【答案】B)
【解析】 Margaret and Eric had to interview with the house owners and provide three references each.从这句话中可以看出房屋主人对应聘者进行了面试,并且每位应聘者分别提供三份介绍信。
Conversation Two
M:You‟ve worked in a university before, haven‟t you?
W:Yes, in Britain, yes.M:What, how do students go about getting jobs when they graduate?
W:Well, most universities have a Careers Advice Service.I used to know the people in the Careers Advice Service in Newcastle University and they, in fact, seem fairly successful in finding jobs for students.They are able to get jobs for 30%~40% of new graduates.M:That seems a fairly low percentage.W:Well...it‟s not if you consider the various other options which people take up.For example, there are a fair number of people I don‟know the exact number, who go into further study, who carry straight on into master‟s degrees.Either at the same university or another university.So that‟s fair chunk.Then there are others, a second group of people, who decide not to take a career job immediately after university.Instead, they decide to take time off, maybe see the world, and...and...well there is a third group, the people who can‟t actually get the jobs they wait for,a job they really want.So when I say 30%~40% find jobs through the careers service, that doesn‟t mean that only that number find jobs.A lot of other people find jobs through the newspapers.M:So it is quite high really, yes.W:Oh, I think so, relatively, yes.And quite a lot of other people of course look in newspapers and the particular journals or magazines which advertise jobs in the fields they‟re interested in.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23.What are the man and the woman talking about?
24.What is the percentage of college graduates getting jobs through university help?
25.What do most college graduates in Britain do when they graduate?
23.【答案】C)

Section B
Passage One
Is your family interested in buying a dog? A dog can be a happy addition to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, the consequences can cause you a lot of trouble.Families should sit down and thoroughly discuss the problems involved before buying a dog.Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dogs, the parents are the ones who are really responsible for seeing that the animal is properly cared for.If you don‟t know much about dogs, it‟s a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA for books about various kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy.When a book describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it probably means that the dog won‟t be happy living in a small apartment.Dog breeds vary in popularity as the years go by.One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd.This is because it provides protection as well as companionship.The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children to handle.If space is limited, a toy dog may be a good choice.These dogs are very small and easy to train.They don‟t need to be walked daily, since they can exercise in the space available in the home.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26.What is the main topic of the talk?
27.According to the speaker who was really responsible for the dog‟s welfare?
28.When is the toy dog a good choice?
26.【答案】A)
【解析】 本文主要讲了养小狗做家庭宠物要十分细心慎重。如果选择不慎的话,会带来许多问题。
27.【答案】C)
【解析】 说话者认为父母才是最应该对小狗负责的人。从这句话中就可以看出来:the parents are the ones who are really responsible for seeing that the animal is properly cared for.28.【答案】C)
【解析】 当你的住房面积很小的时候,养一只小型狗是很好的选择。文中有明确地指出:If space is limited, a toy dog may be a good choice.Passage Two
Everywhere we look, we see Americans running.They run for every reason anybody could think of.They run for health, for beauty, to lose weight, to feel fit, and because it is the thing they love to do.Every year, for example, thousands of people run in one race, the Boston Marathon, the best known long distance race in the United States.In recent years there have been nearly 5,000 official competitors and it takes three whole minutes for the crowd of runners just to cross the starting line.You may have heard the story of the Greek runner, Pheidippides.He ran from Marathon to Athens to deliver the news of the great victory 2,500 years ago.No one knows how long it took him to run the distance.But the story tells us that he died of the effort.Today no one will die in a Marathon race.But at the finish line, we see what this race is about;not being first, but finishing.The real victory is not over one‟s fellow runners, but over one‟s own body.It is a victory of will-power over fatigue.In the Boston Marathon, each person who crosses that finish line is a winner.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29.How long does it take for the runners to cross the starting line in recent Marathon race?
30.Why did the Greek runner run from Marathon to Athens?
31.Why is a person who crosses the finish line a winner?
29.【答案】A)
【解析】 细节题。第一段提到在最近的比赛中,选手们穿过起跑线都需要3分钟的时间。
30.【答案】C)
【解析】 细节题。见第二段,“He ran from Marathon to Athens to deliver the news of the great victory 2,500 years ago”,由此可知,是为了传达胜利的消息。
31.【答案】C)
【解析】推断题。见第二段,“The real victory is not over one‟s fellow runners, but over one‟s own body”,可知真正的胜利不是战胜对手,而是战胜自己。
Passage Three
Of all the stars the sun is the nearest to the earth.Millions of other stars are even bigger and brighter than the sun.They look small only because they are much father away.You can‟t see them in the daytime.But if you go out at night, you‟ll be able to see thousands of them.The earth is one of the sun‟s planets, and the moon is the nearest to the earth in space, and men have visited it already.No man has traveled farther than the moon, but spaceships without people have reached other planets.Many countries have sent up man-made satellites to circle the earth.With their help, people have done much research in many fields of science.Our countries sometimes have sent up manmade satellites to send and receive TV programs.This has helped the people of China and other countries to understand each other better.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32.What do we learn about the sun?
33.Which planet have some people reached?
34.What can we do because of the manmade satellites?
35.What do we learn from the passage?

Part ⅣReading Comprehension(Reading in Depth)
Section A
原文精译
近年来,越来越多的外国人参与了美国的教学项目。当然,在教学中使用外国教职员工既有优点,又有缺点,这必须予以考虑。可以这样说,国外背景使外国教职员工具有价值的同时,也给学校和个人的调整带来一些问题。外国学者通常把自己孤立在实验室中,以此作为一种保护;然而,他所需要的是把自己融入一个具有高度组织的大学体系中,这种体系与其国家的体系截然不同。在日常工作中,他要面对哲学、课程安排和教学方法上的差异。访问教授和他的学生在各自的文化方面都缺乏一种共同点,所以外国教授需要明白美国学生已经了解了那些概念。在帮助外国教授使其适应新环境的同时,学校也必须作出某些调整,以充分发挥新人的优势。如何创造性地利用外国教职教员并不总为人所知,特别是在一些较小的学校中。这被认为是需要进一步研究的领域,其研究成果将对拥有外国教职员工的学院和大学产生重大的价值。
47.【答案】H)
【解析】选of。使用外国教师的优点和缺点必须仔细权衡,此处空格填介词of。
48.【答案】C)
【解析】选considered。consider意思是“考虑,认为”。使用外国教师的优点和缺点必须仔细权衡,此处用被动语态。
49.【答案】F)
【解析】选create。create意思是“产生,制造”。国外的教师资源也会产生些问题。
50.【答案】L)
【解析】选however。本句与前一句意思为转折关系,而且转折词在前,因此用连词however。
51.【答案】O)
【答案】选that。他必须适应管理严密的大学体系,而这一点是与他国内的大学体系大不相同的。that是指代大学体系。
52.【答案】K)
【解析】选lack。所有外来教授和他的学生都缺乏文化共同性。
53.【答案】G)
【解析】选required。外来教授需要接受美国学生头脑里已存在的那些概念。
54.【答案】J)
【解析】选make。“做些调整”用动词make。大学必须做出适当的调整。
55.【答案】E)
【解析】选offer。offer意思是“提供,供应”。
56.【答案】A)
【解析】选field。field意思是“领域”。这是一个有待进一步研究的领域。
Section B
Passage One
原文精译
报纸的分类栏目中出现了一种新型的、越来越普遍的小型广告。虽然它不是工作招聘,但有时却被放置在“招聘广告”中;尽管它也不是个人求职,有时却出现在“求职广告”中。它所做的是向申请工作的人提供帮助。
“写申请前同我们联系”,或者“利用我们多年的经验来为您精心设计您的简历或工作经历”,这种广告经常这样宣传。当然,这种专业服务的出现和成功是当前高失业率的一种反映,也是简历(或工作经历)日益重要的表现,说明简历现在本身也是一种艺术形式。
有一段时间,求职者只是简单地写求职信。当我离开学校时,给首次求职的年轻人提供的一般建议是,“写上你的姓名、地址、年龄以及你是否通过了所有的考试”。信仅仅是写给开启的人的,其他的一切可以或者应该等到面试时再解释。在那些充分就业的日子里,起作用的是技术。求职信证明的是你能写,你可以工作。你充满热切的脸和明智的答复已经表明了其他的一切。
后来,随着你的职位的提升,你的求职信中就需要一些稍微复杂的东西。建议你在求职信中增加一些使你与其他人区别开来的内容。它可能是种激进的方式。“不要再搜寻了,我就是你要招聘的那个人”,这是一种广泛使用而且偶尔会成功的伎俩。或者它也可能是一些专门为面试而设计的特点。
但是,接受过大学全面教育的求职者越来越多,从而使得简历愈加重要,这一点是毫无疑问的。
57.【答案】B)
【解析】 细节题。文章从报纸上刊登的招聘启事小广告说起,说到了高失业率问题以及找工作投递简历等问题。该题有一定难度。根据题干,解答该题应定位在第一段。第一段第二行说“它有时放在„situations vacant‟(招聘)栏目……,”其中招聘加了引号,再加上随后的让步从句明确否定了给人提供工作,所以A)项应排除。第三行说“它有时放在„situations wanted‟(求职)栏目……,”随后的让步从句也明确否定了D)项。而选择正确答案应根据最后一句话“What it does is to offer help in applying for a job.” B)项正确。C)项“把现有的工作分成各种类型”文章没有提及,也应排除。
58.【答案】C)
【解析】 细节题。解答该题只需正确理解第二段第二句“The growth and apparent success of such a specialized service is, of course, a reflection on the current high levels of unemployment.”(这种特别服务的出现和成功反映了当今的高失业率。)这正是C)项的内容。该题属“倒着考”题型。
59.【答案】D)
【解析】 细节题。最关键的提示句应该是第三段第三句“The letter was really just for openers, it was explained, everything else could and should be saved for the interview.”言外之意,在信中不必写得太详细,应该在得到面试机会时再透露更多细节。D)项为正确选项。
60.【答案】A)
【解析】 细节题。文章第四段第一行中的“as you moved up the ladder”对应了题干中的“as one went on to apply for more important jobs”。因此,随后的内容即为答案:“Something slightly more sophisticated was called for.The advice then was to put something in the letter which would distinguish you from the rest.” A)项正确。B)项说“有关申请人个性的隐含信息”,C)项说“申请人申请工作时相对于其他人的优势”,这两项均不正确,D)项表示“用主动积极的方法偶尔玩点花招”,这只是引人关注的其中一种方法,不如A)具有概括性。
61.【答案】B)
【解析】细节题。本题问个人履历为什么重要。只要正确理解最后一段,就可做出正确选择,最后一句实际上是强调句型:“...it is increasing number of applicants with university education at all points in the process of engaging staff that has led to the greater importance of the curriculum vitae.”明确讲明是越来越多的具有大学教育背景的求职者使得个人履历更显重要。“it is”后的内容也即是B)项的内容,所以B)项正确。A)、C)、D)项文中都没有涉及,均应排除。
Passage Two
原文精译
在实行房租管制的城市中,市政府设定了房东出租公寓所收取的最高租金。支持房租管制的人认为,这种措施保护了公寓居住者。房租不增加,他们就不存在没有住房的危险。然而,批评家们认为,长期的房租管制可能会产生负面的影响。房东知道自己不能靠增加房租而赢利,所以他们就转向投资于其他能够赢利的行业,而不会投资建设同样受房租管制的新公寓。结果,新公寓就不会增加,许多需要公寓的人也找不到公寓。批评家们认为,房租管制最终会造成城市公寓的缺乏。
有些理论家认为,最低工资法也以同样的方式造成了一些问题。联邦政府规定了雇主必须支付给工人的最低工资额。最低工资为寻找不熟练劳动和低额工资的人提供了帮助。然而,如果最低工资额增长,雇主可能会雇用较少的工人。它们会用机器来代替工人。由于雇主必须支付给工人的工资增加,在其他条件不变的情况下,雇主雇用工人的数量就会减少。因此,批评家们认为,提高最低工资标准可能会导致失业。有些穷人会失业而不是在最低工资水平处就业。
支持最低工资的人认为,最低工资有助于人保持自己的尊严。由于受法律限制,工人不能以低于最低工资额的价格出售他们的服务。另外,用人单位也不能强迫工人接受不公平的工资而工作。
经济理论预测了经济决策的结果,比如关于农产品、房租管制和最低工资的决定;但是,这些预测仅仅在“其他条件不变的情况下”是正确的。经济学家们在某些预测方面并未取得一致意见。在不同决定的价值方面,他们也存在不同意见。有些经济学家支持某个特别的决定,但另外一些人则对它提出批评。但是,经济学家们都同意,经济问题没有简单的答案。
62.【答案】A)
【解析】 细节题。本文讨论了限制最高租房金额以及最低工资等问题,以及相应引起的经济现象。本题问规定最高租金可能会导致什么结果。文章第一段明确指出,landlords(房东)收取租户的租金有了最高限额,他们的利润会受到影响,也可能导致他们投资其他行业,鉴于此,C)、D)两项都是错误的。B)项“使租房为家的人担忧”文中没有涉及,也不对。依据第一段最后一句话“..., the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.”可知A)项为唯一选项。
63.【答案】C)
【解析】细节题。依据第一段第四句“However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects.”可断定C)项正确。A)、B)、D)诸项都含绝对意味,都不符合文中意思。
64.【答案】A)
【解析】 细节题。解答该题只要准确理解第二段的含义,尤其从第三行开始“However, if the minimum is high,...Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment.”此题较简单。
65.【答案】B)
【解析】 主旨题。本文从rent control和最低工资控制两方面讨论了政府控制可能造成的后果。进一步说,许多政府行为可能保护某些利益,但从长远看,也会带来许多问题。B)项正确。A)项说(文章叙述了)供需关系;C)项说(文章叙述了)政府控制的必要性;D)项说(文章叙述了)摆脱政府控制的紧迫性。文章并没有深入谈及这三项内容,显然不能成为文章主旨。
66.【答案】D)
【解析】推断题。依据第四段第二行“The predictions may be correct only if „other things are equal‟.”可得知A)项是对的。从第二段可得知规定最低工资会使得雇主雇佣更少的工人,会考虑用机器替代工人,也就会导致更多的人失业,所以B)项应该是可以成立的说法。C)项的内容实际上就是A)项的另一种说法,也可成立。依据第四段内容,可得知D)项不正确。经济理论应该有相当的参考价值,只是还需考虑方方面面的因素。
Part ⅤCloze
原文精译
对于许多人来说,现在的阅读已经不再是一种放松了。为了继续他们的工作,他们必须阅读信件、报告、贸易出版物、办公室的文件,更不用说报纸和杂志了:永远不会结束的大量的字词。在获得工作或提升时,快速阅读和理解的能力就意味着成功和失败的差别。然而,不幸的是,我们当中的大多数人都不善于阅读。我们大多数人在早期养成了不好的阅读习惯,而且没有将其改掉。主要的困难在于语言的自身要素——词语。除非它们组合成词、句子和段落,单个的词语本身并没有意思。但是,不幸的是,没有受过训练的读者不会阅读词组。他每次都费力地阅读一个词,还经常回头去重读词语或文章。回头重读,就是再返回去看自己
已经阅读过的东西,是一种常见的不良阅读习惯。另一种降低阅读速度的习惯是发声阅读——阅读时发声或默读每个单词。
为了克服这些坏习惯,一些阅读诊所采用了一种名为快速阅读器的工具,在页面上以预定的速度来移动一行(或者一页)。为了提高读者的阅读速度,设定的一行速度稍微快于读者感觉到舒服的速度。快速阅读器迫使读者加快阅读速度,使其不可能再逐字阅读、回顾文章内容或者默读。首先,理解以牺牲速度为代价。但是,当你学会阅读理念和概念时,你不仅会提高阅读速度,而且会提高理解能力。许多人发现,在经过训练后,他们的阅读能力获得了极大提高。以商务经理人Charlce Au为例,在接受训练前,他合理可靠的阅读速度是每分钟172个单词,现在他的阅读速度提高到每分钟1378个单词。在较短的时间内,他可以阅读完大量的材料,这让他非常欣慰。
67.【答案】D)
【解析】本句意思是“谁如果想谋得一份差事”。A)项applying需加for,意思是“申请”;B)项、C)项均不符合题意,只有D)项(获得)适合。
68.【答案】A)
【解析】本句意为“快速阅读与理解的能力,是关系到成败的关键所在”只有quickly与原意吻合。easily(容易地);roughly(粗略地);decidedly(果断地)均与原文内容不符。
69.【答案】C)
【解析】英语中,阅读速度快的人称为good reader,反之,就是poor reader。根据上下文的内容,多数人都属于poor reader,因此选poor(差的)。其他选项不妥。
70.【答案】B)
【解析】此处的意思是“大多数人早期养成看书慢的习惯”因此选habits(习惯)。training(训练,培训);situations(形势);custom(风俗习惯)。
71.【答案】A)
【解析】 此处说的是“主要的困难在于语言的自身要素,即单词”。combines联合;touches接触;involves包括,这三项的词义与原文不符。而lies与in构成搭配,意为“在于”。
72.【答案】C)
【解析】 这里的意思是“如果单个地看这些字,它们并没有什么意义”。some有点;a lot许多;dull单调的。此三项不合题意。只有little(很少)是否定词,合乎逻辑。
73.【答案】D)
【解析】此句意为作者对未受过阅读训练的人不会读句子组合感到遗憾。fortunately幸运地;in fact事实上;logically合乎逻辑地,均不妥。unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句意。
74.【答案】B)
【解析】 此句意为“在阅读时经常重读(反复读)”因此,选reread重读。reuse再使用;rewrite重写;recite背诵。
75.【答案】A)
【解析】 此处所填的词既是look back over的宾语,又是you have just read的宾语,只有what能充当这种双重成分。
76.【答案】C)
【解析】 scales down按比例减少;cuts down削减,此两项不合题意。measures不能与down搭配。只有slow与down搭配的意思“放慢”,在此合适。
77.【答案】B)
【解析】 本段前文已经出现you,在此选one(泛指人们、我们、你)来代替you。some one无此用法。如果用reader,前面应加定冠词。he不能与该段逻辑一致。
78.【答案】A)
【解析】 此句意为“训练快速阅读所使用的工具必然与提高阅读速度有关”,因此选accelerator(快读器)。actor演员;amplifier放大器;observer观察者。
79.【答案】D)
【解析】前面的faster决定了应当选than,构成比较级。
80.【答案】C)
【解析】 此句意为“快速阅读器迫使你加快阅读速度,使你再也不能逐字阅读,回顾前文内容或者默读”。enabling相当于making possible;leading引导;indicating指出,表明。都不合题意。只有making(使,使得)最合适。
81.【答案】B)
【解析】 这里的意思是“速读最初会影响理解”,所以选comprehension(理解力)。meaning意义,意思,指词或词组表示的意义;gist大意,要旨;regression回顾。
82.【答案】A)
【解析】 与前半句中的not only相呼应,构成句式“不仅……,而且……”,只有选but,而nor,or或for均不能构成固定用法。
83.【答案】C)
【解析】 本句中的主语是第三人称复数,物主代词必然是their。
84.【答案】B)
【解析】take与后面的for instance构成短语,意为:“以……例”,其他三项不能构成搭配。
85.【答案】D)
【解析】 这里提到受训之前与受训之后进行比较、对比,因此选before。
86.【答案】D)
【解析】 此处意为:在较短时间内,读完众多的材料。master掌握;go over复习;present呈现,展现。此三项均不妥。只有get through(读完)最恰当。
Part ⅥTranslation
87.【答案】would not have finished so early
【解析】 本题考查虚拟语气would have done,表示本该发生的事没有发生。本句使用的是否定形式。“but for”表示“要不是……”。
88.【答案】delaying making
【解析】本题考查mind的用法,这里应填入的是动名词形式。
89.【答案】to have no access
【解析】access这里的意思是“(使用或见到的)机会,权利”,have access to为固定搭配,即“有机会做某事”。本句中使用的是否定。
90.【答案】we may/might as well walk home
【解析】本题重点在“不妨”的译法。may as well表示“不妨,最好”。
91.【答案】singing and dancing to their heart‟s content
【解析】本句需填入的成分在句中起补充说明的作用,因此用动名词形式。“尽情地”译为“to one‟s heart‟s content”。

2009 年 12 月英语四级写作范文及解析
1、建设绿色校园很重要
2、绿色校园不仅指绿色的环境……
3、为了建设绿色校园,我们应该…… Creating a Green Campus Recently the topic of a green campus has been widely debated which has aroused public attention.Undoubtedly, a green campus, the indispensable part for the development of college students, has a profound impact on both individulas and society,for its significance cannot be denied。A green campus environment, rather than anything else, plays a decisive role in the growth of college students.Needless to say, a green campus includes not only the places where the students live, but also the mental environment.If there were no green surrounding among the college students, their soul would be not as pure as we wish.In that case, in no place other than campus should we attempt to make a green atmosphere。In view of the seriousness of the situation, it is imperative for us to take effective measures to creat a green campus.In the first place, it is essential that law and regulations be worked out and enforced by the government and authorities.Furthermore, it is ripe time that we enhanced the awareness of the students themselves.Only in this way, can we get a satisfactory results.With these measures taken, it is reasonable for us to believe that a green campus will be achieved in the near future。
历 年四级作文题及范文(2009-06)[2009/06/26] 越来越多的博物馆免费开放的目的是什么? 也会带来一些问题 你的看法 Free Admission to Museums(满分版)Nowadays, an increasing number of museums are admission-free to visitors home and abroad.The hidden reason behind this is not hard to analyze as there’s a growing awareness for the authorities regarding the urgency of popularization of culture, knowledge and history with every average person in our society.Only with free access to this live ‘database’, can most people fully enjoy what museums could offer to them.However, free admission to museums might lead to some social problems as well.The most obvious problem is that it might give museums a very heavy economic burden which directly impedes the sustainable development of these organizations.As a result, our government has to work out other ways to collect funds from different channels, which might be difficult to operate or control.On the other hand, free admission attracts too many visitors, some of which might not be well-purposed and do some conscious or unconscious damage to the valuable treasures which used to be well-preserved in the museums.As a university student, I am in favor of the free-admission conduct.Yet it is proposed that some measures should be taken to solve the potential problems caused by it.For example, museums can make some regulations to guide the behavior of visitors or set some ‘closed’ days for museums for regular maintenance.Only in this way can free-admission to museums become a long-lasting phenomenon and have sustainable development.历 年四级作文题及范文(2008-12)[2008/07/26] 1.一次性塑料袋曾被广泛的使用 2.造成的问题 3.限制使用塑的意义 Limiting the Use of Disposal Bags ? These days disposal products often hit the headlines of newspapers and have been brought into focus of the public.Indeed, it is widely accepted that they have gained increasing popularity among people in all walks of life.Taking a look around you, you can find examples too numerous to list: When you walk on the street, you can see plastic bags flying over your head;When you ramble along the river, you can find plastic bottles floating on the water;When you stroll in the park with your lover, you can notice waste paper thrown everywhere.? Among the most important reasons often cited by people is the quickening pace of modern life.They are often too busy to wash dirty dishes or glasses, as a
result they can do nothing but use disposal products.Also playing a part is the improvement of people's life.As a result of the policy of opening and reform, an increasing number of people are much richer than before and can afford disposal products.(原因)? Admittedly, they might benefit us in a short term.Unfortunately, they will do us harm in more than one way.The major harm is(that)they are sure to pollute the environment.To make matters worse, they are likely to have potential harm to public health.To illustrate this point, I can think of no better example than HP, the river through S.As a result of disposal products in it, the water has caused some diseases in the local people.(影响)? To sum up, for the factors mentioned before, we can safely reach the conclusion that the prevalence of disposale products is bound to cause a chain of undesirable effects.In view of the present situation, it is high time that the government tried every means to protect the environment.Only in this way, can we have a bright future.历年四级作文题及范文(2008-06)[2008/06/25] 1.有人认为网络可以让学习、工作更有效率 2.还有人认为网络让青少年沉迷,进而影响学习3.你对于网络的看法 Recreational Activities In the era of information and technology, there are all kinds of recreational activities.Some people think those recreational activities are great and necessary, because they can help people relax from the hard work and study.Some of the activities, such as hiking, jogging, can help people relax physically;while some of them, such as surfing the Internet, can help people relax mentally.However, some people think that so many kinds of recreational activities may have a bad effect on our lives.Some people may not resist some temptations from those activities, and indulge themselves in those activities.At last they are lured away from their study or their work.In my opinion, we should pay more attention to the advantages of various recreational activities and make the most of them.Meanwhile, we should learn how to use those activities positively, and make them a helpful tool for our development.来源:江涛英语第一时间解析 2008 年 6 月 21 日四级写作 分析: 此次写作题目与昨天我们预测的写作题目之一 The Internet 重合度非常高,都属于正反论证类,需要考生论述正反两方的观点,并最终表明自己的观点。写 作中可用的句型和表达也与 The Internet 的范文达到高达 70%的重合度。具体参 加下面的预测范文。Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic The Internet.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese: 1.有人认为网络可以让学习、工作更有效率 2.还有人认为网络让青少年沉迷,进而影响学习
历年四级作文题及范文(2007-12)[2007/12/25]
1、各学校开了各种各样的选修课
2、学生选课有不同的原因
3、就我而言 范文一 Nowadays, there usually exists a wide selection of electives for college students to choose from.However, students have quite different plans for their future so they always end up learning courses based on their own ideas.Some students may choose to learn a certain course in order to obtain an extra certificate for their job hunting after graduation.Because they assume that some more knowledge could ensure more chances of winning in finding a good job.Others may have their choice made just for fun.They tend to hold the idea that college life could be more colorful if they could widen their knowledge through elective courses.As far as I’m concerned, I’m inclined to choose electives based on both the value of the courses and the interest of my own.范文二 Nowadays many college students prefer to
have electives in their spare time because the courses can offer a variety of skills and abundant knowledge apart from what they learn in the daily courses.There are many factors that may account for it, and the following are the most conspicuous aspects.To start with, many students want to get another degree besides their own, so that they can have more competence when they seek a job.Furthermore, as for me, I don’t care about degree or job, I just want to obtain some necessary skills to make my college life worthwhile.What I’m concerned most is how to own more skills that may be necessary for my future.Finally, some students want to learn anything that is different from what they are learning now.The science students, for example, want to know about Shakespeare while the art students want to tell how a vehicle works and how to deal with it when it breaks down.So, they can all get what they think is useful to their college life.On the whole, the phenomenon is one of the results of multi-demand of the employment market.There is still a long way for us to improve the elective itself, but as a student myself, I find it rewarding and interesting.作文评析: 今年四级的作文,从题目看是明显的议论文。按照我们曾经介绍过的议论文模式,可以用模版来写一 些,开头可以用议 论文典型的开头,比方说,Many students nowadays prefer to have electives because ….., 或者,With the development of the employment market, many students would like to have another course……这样在文章的开篇就提出了明确的主题现 象。第二段可以按照题目要求,根据自己的经历和现在学校的状况,举例说明 这种选修课给自己所带来的利弊,如果自己倾向于上选修课,那么可以多举些优 例如: a ______ majored student myself, I prefer to choose ______ as As 势的例 子,my elective, and I find that _________.比如可以丰富自己的学科范围,扩大知识 面,增强竞争力等。第三段可以说这种现象的劣势,比如: Good as______ is, it has, unfortunately, its disadvantages also.The apparent example is _______.就你自己的经历来看,可 能有比方说,耽误了正课的时间,学习太多无法消化,精力分散等。最后可以总结,On the whole, above all, 等等,陈述你的观点。

1、许多人喜欢在除夕夜观看春节晚会
2、但有些人提出取消春节晚会.
3、我 的看法. The approach of the Chinese Lunar New Year poses a national issue concerning the necessity of holding the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.Its established status is being challenged by a growing number of people, especially by younger
generations.It is increasingly difficult to cater for all tastes.Some individuals deem that it should be canceled or replaced by other programs.These young people focus their attention on other forms of celebration instead of immersing themselves in TV.Despite that, the majority of mid-aged people and senior citizens uphold the importance of the traditional performance.The most striking feature of this gala is its traditionally close link with ordinary people's lives.Most of people view this gala as an annual staple on the traditional Chinese Spring Festival Eve.They all have a restless night and glue their eyes on the television.I am not supportive of the view that the grand gala should be abandoned.Undoubtedly, it plays a vital role in the celebration of Chinese New Year.To increase its appeal and meet young adults' need, the upcoming performance should invite some big names including super stars from Hongkong and Taiwan.We are all eagerly anticipating this unforgettable evening show.【点评】 本次四级考试作文总体上来说并不是很难。但表现出两个出人意料:一是体 裁,二是题材。对于体裁来说,本次四级作文属于正反对比论证类的文体。比较出人意料,又回到了老的考查模式。很多学生把考前死背的作文模板派上了用场。但是这 只 能得到最基本的分数。虽然模板对于考查学生的语言表达并不益处,但还能测试 出考生的语言基本功。从四级考试写作的测试目的来看,还是注重考查学生对基 本 语法、基本词汇运用能力的掌握情况。所以除了模板之外,考生还要在基本 表达上狠下功夫,只有在平时多操练,在考场上才游刃有余。除此之外,学生还 要在作文 中多采用闪光点,这样就会使作文在基本分数上有所提升,有所突破。

You should write at Least 120 words following the outline given below : 1.名校校园正成为旅游新热点 2.校园是否应对游客开放,人们看法不同 3.我认为…… 〔参考作文〕Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists? 〔参看范文一〕 One can always find visitors taking pictures and enjoying the scenery in university compus.During the May Day Holiday, National Day Holiday, summer and winter vacations, many University campuses become popular tourist sites.In my opinion,university campus should be open to tourists.In fact, there are many royal gardens and parks, all of them obviously better than the scenery in the Universities.Why do you think people prefer visiting here with their children? That is because it is a dream goal for many Chinese parents and young ambitious students.Besides this, as more tourists come to visit universities, these universities can widen their influence as well and they can also make some profit from the tourism.In a word, I think the university compus should be open to the tourists 〔参看范文二〕 In university compus, especially in some famous ones, such as Peking University and Qinghua University, tourists are always seen looking around everywhere.Although most of them visit with hope and repect, I think university compus should not be open to tourists.First, tourists' visit will disturb the normal teaching.They always get into teaching buildings, libraries and so on.They will make noise and throw rubbish everywhere.Second, some tourists trample grass to take photos, and sculpture on trees to leave words.These will affect the environment of the compus badly.The university is a holy place for study, not for tourism.So It should not be open.2
