14本次四级作文探讨的是最近的热点话题之一——互联网网购。目前网购的风靡程度是众所周知,因此,考生对于该话题还是比较熟悉的。但是,比较特殊的是,题干所列出的要求的是考生从一个客观的角度来阐述该话题,而不是简单陈述自己的意见。所以,考生应当审清楚题,在写作时不仅仅要列出网购的优点,还必须给出相应的缺点。按照四级作文的要求,考生在第一段时应该总述现象并引出话题;第二段考生应当从正反两方面来论述网购,分别铺陈其优缺点;关于优点,网购的优点很多,考生可择其最突出显著的方面来阐述,比如说网购可以节省很多时间;网购可以节省很多成本开支等;其次,缺点方面考生可以把重心放在诚信方面;为了不至于跟优点相比,缺点方面太轻,考生可以考虑稍微提一下其他缺点,比如说与传统购物相比,网购少去了很多砍价的乐趣;第三点要求考生对于第二段列出的缺点给出自己的建议。此处我们可以根据第二段列出的缺点方面给出相应的防范应对措施。整篇作文话题比较好展开,难度不大,只要考生审好题,列出相应点,相信作文不会他是难题。外教版Onlineshoppinghasbeenaboontomanyindustriesandcompanieslookingtoexpandtheirmarkets.Also,it'sconvenientforshopperswhoaretoobusytoleavethehouse.However,insomecasesnothingcanreplaceatruefacetofaceshoppingexperience.Internetshoppingisconvenientforthemotherswhospendalldaydoinghousechoresandforthefatherswhoworkafull-timejob.Ontheotherhand,therearelimitstoshoppingonline,forexample:guessingthecorrectsizeofclothingonacomputerscreencanbeveryfrustrating.Forthebusymotherandfather,onlineshoppingisaveryusefulandconvenienttool.But,thereareinstances,likeclothesshopping,wherenothingbeatstherealthing.点评:作者在第一段描述了网购作为一种时尚给大家的生活带来了便利,然后话锋一转,说网购仍然取代不了面对面的购物交流。第二段主要还是从正反两方面分析了网购的优势和不足,以此描述大家对网购的不同反应。第三段作者表明了自己的观点,对网购的便利和不足之处都做了描述。
15综合来讲,本篇文章观点明确,结构清晰,语言表达地道,有不少闪光词汇,但是,内容深度上来讲还有些欠缺,另外,最后一部分表达个人观点,和第二段稍有重复。考生需要注意观点的清晰,不宜模棱两可。PartIIReadingComprehension(SkimmingandScanning)1.B.Itsbadtaste解析:题干中generallyknownfor对应原文areputationfor,根据原文第一句WhydoesBritishfoodhaveareputationforbeingsobad?Becauseitisbad!可知关键词为bad,故选B。2.A.aninadequatesupplyofproduction解析:由题干关键词theSecondWorldWar可以定位到原文第四段,二战之前,英国的食品都是进口的,二战之后,食品供应船只遭到攻击,只能依靠配给。故选A,食品供给不足。3.B.Itspeoplecaredmoreforquantity解析:由competewithsomeofitsneighbouringcountries可以定位到原文第6段,theyweren'tlookingfor…,theywerelookingfor…,thisprioritizationofquantityoverqualityprevailedfordecades.可见他们对数量的追求高于质量,因此选B。4.C.allkindsofoverseasvisitors解析:由题干关键词culinary定位到原文第7段,根据最后一句…itsabilitytopleasethetastesofanyinternationalvisitor.而anyinternationalvisitor就等同于答案allkindsofoverseasvisitors。故选C.5.C.Newideasandpresentations解析:问题是按照DavidTamlyn的观点,香港的饮食者喜欢什么。先根据DavidTamlyn这个人名定位到原文第八段,再根据最后一句话HongKongdinersareextremelyresponsivetonewideasorpresentations,…这里的areextremelyresponsiveto在意思上等于题干中的welcome。6.D.maintainBritishtraditionaltastes解析:一些饭店修改菜谱,采用新样式,而另外一些则保留英式口味,再根据Tamlynisinthesecondcamp,可知Tamlyn属于后者,即保留原汁原味。故答案选D。7.B.Theyareproducedonexcellentorganicfarms解析:由NeilTomes定位到原文第12段,根据最后两句话…Ithasexcellentorganicfarms,beautifullycraftedcheeses,high-qualitymeats可选出答案B,NeilTomes喜欢英国原料的原因就在于原料产于优秀的有机农场。8.thelocalmarkets
16解析:根据原文,…whichmeanswetakeourvegetablesfromthelocalmarkets,…即除了从英国直接进口,还有部分蔬菜从本地市场购买的。9.inaBritishway解析:先定位到ThePhoenix那一段,再找到下一段,Weusealotofingredientsthatpeoplewouldn'tperhapsassociateasBritish,butarepresentedinaBritishway.10.sharetheirmeals解析:AtYorkshirePudding,Hillsaysthathisstaffasksdinerswhethertheywouldliketosharetheirmeals.餐厅之所以在上菜之后再供应碟子,原因就在于可能会有人愿意和别人分享食物。PartIIIListeningComprehensionSectionA11.M:Shawn'sbeentryingformonthstofindajob.ButIwonderhowhecouldgetajobwhenhelookslikethat.W:Oh,thatpoorguy!Hereallyshouldshavehimselfeveryotherdayatleastandputonsomethingclean.Q:WhatdowelearnaboutShawn?答案:A.Heiscarelessabouthisappearance.解析:男生首先对肖恩能否找到工作表示怀疑,因为他邋遢。女生接着提到肖恩不修边幅,又说他应该每隔一天刮一次胡子,把自己弄得整洁干净一点。由此可知,肖恩是一个对仪容仪表不太注重,比较粗线条的人shave,刮胡子;becarelessabout不在乎,不介意;12.W:IwishJanewouldcallwhensheknowshe'llbelate.Thisisnotthefirsttimewe'vehadtowaitforher.M:Iagree.Butshedoeshavetodrivethroughveryheavytraffictogethere.Q:Whatdoesthemanimply?答案:A.Janemaybecaughtinatrafficjam.解析:本题是推理题,在做题时要注意仔细推敲。女生说:“Jane已经不是第一次迟到让我们等了,我希望她能事先打电话告诉我们一下”,可见女生对Jane迟到的作法是不满的。男生又说:“Iagree.Butshedoeshavetodrivethroughveryheavytraffictogethere.”(我同意。但是她到这里的确要遭受很拥堵的交通。)由此得出,男生对此事的态度是理解或宽容的。Jane可能被堵在半路了。
1713.M:Congratulations!IheardyourbaseballteamisgoingtotheMiddleAtlanticChampionship.W:Yeah,we'reallworkingrealhardrightnow!Q:Whatisthewoman'steamdoing?答案:A.TrainingfortheMid-AtlanticChampionship.解析:对话开头男生提到女生所在的棒球队要参加Mid-AtlanticChampionship.女生说:“we'reallworkingrealhardrightnow!”(我们现在正紧锣密鼓地练习呢!)由此可知,女生所在的棒球队正在进行赛前训练。此题还有一个迷惑选项B,Makingpreparationsforatrans-Atlantictrip,必须注意的是:这里并不是准备旅行,而是准备参赛。14.W:John'sbeenlookingafterhismotherinthehospital.Shewasinjuredinacaraccidenttwoweeksagoandstillincriticalcondition.M:Oh,that'sterrible.Andyouknowhisfatherpassedawaylastyear.Q:WhatdowelearnaboutJohn?答案:D.Hehasbeenhavingahardtime.解析:根据听力原文可知,“John'smotherisinthehospitalandhisfatherdiedlastyear.”(约翰的母亲出车祸住院了,父亲两年前也过世了)由此可见,John的近况还是蛮悲惨的;答案也就显而易见了。15.M:Whataboringspeaker!Icanhardlystayawake.W:Well,Idon'tknow.Infact,Ithinkit'sbeenalongtimesinceI'veheardanyoneisgood.Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?答案:DThewomanthinkshighlyofthespeaker解析:根据听力原文可知,男生觉得演讲无趣,女生却很淡定地说:“其实我已经很久没有听到那么好的发言了”。由此可见,女生对发言还是很肯定的。选项D中“thinkshighlyof”即“对…评价高”,故D是正确答案。16.W:I'mhavingalotoftroublewithlogicanditseemsmyprofessorcan'texplainitinawaythatmakessensetome.M:Youknow,thereisatutoringserviceoncampus.Iwasabouttodropstatisticsbeforetheyhelpedmeout.Q:Whatdoesthemanmean?答案:C.Thewomanshouldseekhelpfromtutoringservices.
18解析:首先女生说她逻辑学得很辛苦,接受不了老师的讲课方式也理解不了课程内容。而后男生说学校有辅导班,他在参加之前几乎要挂科了,辅导班帮了他大忙。言下之意是推荐女生也去上辅导班。17.M:Thisisastylishovercoat.Isawyouwearingitlastweek,did'tI?W:Oh,thatwasn'tme.ThatwasmysisterJill.She'sinyourclass.Q:Whatdoesthewomanmean?答案:C.Jillworetheovercoatlastweek.解析:首先男生问女生上周是否穿过拉风外套,然后女生说:“ThatwasmysisterJill.She'sinyourclass.”(那是我姐姐Jill,她和你同班)也就是说男生很有可能看到的那个穿着拉风外套的人是女生的姐姐Jill。18.M:Jane,supposeyoulostallyourmoneywhiletakingavacationoverseas,whatwouldyoudo?W:Well,IguessI'dsellmywatchorcomputerordosomeoddjobstillIcouldaffordareturnplaneticket.Q:Whatarethespeakerstalkingabout?答案:B.Animaginarysituation.解析:根据原文录音可知,对话开头男生讲到:“Jane,supposeyoulostallyourmoneywhiletakingavacationoverseas,whatwouldyoudo?”这里的"suppose"表明“假定、料想”由此可见,两人谈论的是一个虚拟场景。ConversationOne听力原文M:Hello,professorJohnson.W:Hello,Tony.Sowhatshallweworkontoday?M:Well,theproblemisthatthiswritingassignmentisn'tcomingoutright.WhatIthoughtIwaswritingonwastotalkaboutwhatparticularsportmeanstomewhenIparticipatein,W:Whatsportdidyouchoose?M:Idecidedtowriteaboutcross-countryskiing.W:Whatareyougoingtosayaboutskiing?M:That'stheproblem.IthoughtIwouldwriteabouthowpeacefulitistobeoutinthecountry.W:Sowhyisthataproblem?

20这篇对话主要考察对文章大意的理解,而不是纠结于一词一句的得失,因此,大家在做题时,也要注意把握主干,不要因为听到了一个自己不太熟悉的运动就舍本逐末。ConversationTwoW:Goodeveningandwelcometothisweek'sBusinessWorld.Itprogramforandaboutbusinesspeople.TonightwehaveMr.AngelenowhocametotheUSsixyearsago,andisnowanestablishedbusinessmanwiththreerestaurantsintown.TellusMr.Angeleno,howdidyougetstarted?M:WellIstartedoffwithasmalldiner.Ididallthecookingmyselfandmywifewaitedontables.Itwasreallytoomuchworkfortwopeople.Mycookingisgreat.Andwordgotaroundtownaboutthefood.Withinayear,Ihadtohireanothercookandfourwaitresses.Whenthatrestaurantbecameverybusy,Idecidedtoexpandmybusiness.Nowwiththreeplacesmymainconcerniskeepingthebusinesssuccessfulandrunningsmoothly.W:Doyouadvertise?M:Ohyes.Idon'thaveanyTVcommercials,becausetheyaretooexpensive.ButIadvertisealotonradioandinlocalnewspapers.Mychildrenusedtodistributeads.innearbyshoppingcentres,butwedon'tneedtodothatanymore.W:Whydoyoubelieveyou'vebeensosuccessful?M:Em,IalwaysservethefreshestpossiblefoodandImaketheatmosphereascomfortableandaspleasantasIcan,sothatmycustomerswillwanttocomeback.W:Soyoualwaysaimtopleasethecustomers?M:Absolutely!WithoutthemIwouldhavenobusinessatall.W:ThankyouMr.Angeleno.Ithinkyouradvicewillbehelpfulltothosejuststaringoutinbusiness.Questions23to25arebasedontheconversationyouhavejustheard.22Whatisthewoman'soccupationD)Hostessoftheweekly“BusinessWorld”23whatdowelearnaboutMr.Angeleno'sbusinessatitsbeginningB)Heandhiswifedideverythingbythemselves.24whatdoesMr.Angelenosayaboutadvertisinghisbusiness.B)Headvertisesalotonradioandinnewspapers.25Whatdoesthemansaycontributetohissuccess?
21B)Therestaurantatmosphere22.D)Hostessoftheweekly“BusinessWorld”解析:从对话中可以听出,这是一个访谈节目,因此这个女性是节目主持人。23.B)Heandhiswifedideverythingbythemselves.解析:题目问的是,刚开始的时候,Angeleno的生意怎么样?对话中提到,Ididallthecookingmyselfandmywifewaitedontables.Angeleno负责做菜,他妻子负责接待,对应选项B。24.B)Headvertisesalotonradioandinnewspapers.解析:从ButIadvertisealotonradioandinlocalnewspapers.一句中,可以得到对应选项。25.B)Therestaurantatomsphere解析:题目问的是,什么有助于餐厅的成功?对话中提到,IalwaysservethefreshestpossiblefoodandImaketheatmosphereascomfortableandaspleasantasIcan,sothatmycustomerswillwanttocomeback.可见,Angeleno会提供尽可能新鲜的食物和舒适的用餐环境以吸引顾客,因此,对应选项B,也许,有童鞋会问,为什么不选C?注意,C选项是指各种各样的食物,与文意中“新鲜的食物”不符,是错误选项。这篇对话是一篇较为简单的访谈节目,主要涉及一些细节问题,其中,关键细节包括餐馆经营情况,广告宣传情况等,也是考点所在。童鞋们在听时,可以相应地做些简单的笔记,从而准确地选出选项。SectionBPassageOneTherearemanycommonlyheldbeliefsabouteyeglassesandeyesightthatarenotprovenfacts.Forinstance,somepeoplebelievethatwearingglassestoosoonweakenstheeyes.Butthereisnoevidencetoshowthatthestructureofeyesischangedbywearingglassesatayoungage.Wearingthewrongglasses,however,canproveharmful.Studiesshowthatforadultsthereisnodanger,butchildrencandeveloplossofvisioniftheyhaveglassesinappropriatefortheireyes.Wehaveallheardsomeofthecommonmythsabouthoweyesightgetsbad.Mostpeoplebelievethatreadingindimlightcausespooreyesight,butthatisuntrue.Toolittlelightmakestheeyesworkharder,sotheydogettiredandstrained.Eyestrainalsoresultsfromreadingalot,readinginbed,andwatchingtoomuchtelevision.However,althougheyestrainmaycausesomepainorheadaches,itdoesnotpermanentlydamageeyesight.Anothermythabouteyesisthattheycanbereplaced,ortransferred

23选项。PassageTwoWhenpeoplecareforanelderlyrelative,theyoftendonotuseavailablecommunityservicessuchasadultdaycarecenters.Ifthecaregiversareadultchildren,theyaremorelikelytousesuchservices,especiallybecausetheyoftenhavejobsandotherresponsibilities.Incontrast,aspouseusuallythewife,ismuchlesslikelytousesupportservicesortoputthedependentpersoninanursinghome.Socialworkersdiscoverthatthewifenormallytriestotakecareofherhusbandherselfforaslongasshecaninordernottouseuptheirlifesavings.Researchershavefoundthatcaringfortheelderlycanbeaverypositiveexperience.Theelderlyappreciatedthecareandattentiontheyreceived.Theywereaffectionateandcooperative.However,evenwhencaregivingissatisfying,itishardwork.Socialworkersandexpertsonagingoffercaregiversandpotentialcaregivershelpwhenarrangingforthecareofanelderlyrelative.Oneconsiderationistoaskparentswhattheywantbeforetheybecomesickordependent.Perhapstheyprefergoingintoanursinghomeandcanselectoneinadvance.Ontheotherhand,theymaywanttolivewiththeiradultchildren.Caregiversmustalsolearntostatetheirneedsandopinionsclearlyandaskforhelpfromothersespeciallybrothersandsisters.Brothersandsistersareoftenwillingtohelp,buttheymaynotknowwhattodoQuestions29to32arebasedonthepassageyouhavejustheard.29.Whyareadultchildrenmorelikelytousecommunityservicestohelpcareforelderlyparents?答案:D)Theyhavejobsandothercommitments.解析:细节题。本题询问原因,文章开头很快就给出了本题答案"becausetheyoftenhavejobsandotherresponsibilities."注意D选项中的commitments的意思是“承诺,保证;承担义务”和responsibilities意思相近。这也是四级考试中常见的选项设置,用同义词或近义词替换掉文中的词汇。这要求考试在备考时,重点词汇及其同义词反义词都要有所了解。其他选项文中没有提及,可排除。30.Whyaremostwivesunwillingtoputtheirdependenthusbandsintonursinghomes?答案:A)Theydon'twanttouseupalltheirlifesavings.解析:细节题。关键词"wives""husbands"。本题不难,文章中已经直接给出答案"inordernottouseuptheirlifesavings"。

26本文提要:本篇属于科技类文章,主要围绕时间和运动的关系展开;用谚语开篇引出全文,很有吸引力。中间引用爱因斯坦的相对论相关概念,具体阐述主题。答案:36.survive解析:文章描述:运动越快,时间变慢得也更快,这也就意味着宇航员有朝一日可以在太空中生存(survive)很久,如此一来他们就可以在遥远(distant)的未来重返地球。37.distant解析:这个空在future前面,所以预判该填形容词常用搭配无非near,close,distant等,根据听力原文,如上所述,确定是遥远的未来;填distant。38.backward解析:速度达到光速,时间静止;根据常识推断,若速度快于光速,那么时间将后退,即movebackward,根据听力原文可确定这一推断。39.discovered解析:空缺部分作后置定语,从音频可知是发现(discovered),用其过去完成时态。40.scientific解析:该空后接名词,应为形容词,scientific。41.motion解析:原文描述,实验已证明运动加快会使宇航员的时间延长。这里的运动为motion。42.predicted解析:爱因斯坦在1905年时作出预测,用过去时predicted。43.introduced解析:这是爱因斯坦提出的一个相对时间的概念,用过去时introduced。44.thatmoveataspeedgreaterthanlight,andtherefore,mightserveasourpassportstothepast.解析:当下进行的研究旨在证实,是否有这样的物质,即能以超光速运行,并可以作为我们回归过去的“通行证”。填句只需意思相近就可以,关键抓住核心:超光速运行,可帮助人类回到过去。45.seemstohavebeenapartofhumanityforaslongashumanhaveexisted.解析:人类对时间的节约,获取,浪费以及流失等的着迷,自人类诞生以来就一直是其生活的一部分。核心:人类诞生以来就一直存在的,如影随形的。46.usedadefinitionoftimeforexperimentalpurposes,asthatwhich
27ismeasuredbyaclock.解析:人类也对时间的含义非常着迷,爱因斯坦就曾提出一个试验性的定义,这个定义下的时间可以用钟表来测量。核心意思:试验性的定义,可以用钟表来测量。解题密钥:听类似文章时首先要注意把握逻辑结构,也即听第一遍听时把握大意,先不要急于填写所有空缺,重点是要缕清思路,听懂文章在说什么,记录关键信息词;有了对文章整体的把握后,第二遍听时就容易许多,这时就可以把空缺进量补齐,注意填句部分不一定非得按原文填写,只要意思相近就行;第三遍是最后一遍,此时要边听边检查已填写空缺,另外也可补填遗漏。听力音频结束后,可对所填词汇进行检查,此时主要根据语法知识保证词形,词性准确无误;另外也可重新组织语句,完善填句部分。PartIVReadingComprehension(Readingindepth)SectionA文章大意:47Ntend48Lnegative49Hefficiently50Bassociated51Aalert52Jfunction/53Fdefinitely54Oyounger55Econtinuing56Gdifferent文章大意:本文主要讲述的是关于老年人睡眠的问题:是否老年人与年轻人相比只需要较少的睡眠时间?47.tendto固定搭配;表示“倾向于;”符合句意;48.空格后是effect,前面是a(n),由此可见,该处需要填入一个形容词;题目给出的形容词有negative,sufficient,younger;根据前后语意,填入negative最为恰当,表示“少的睡眠时间对大脑的活动有负面的影响。”49.根据推测,该处应该填入一个副词,题目给出的副词有efficiently,definitely,formally;前面提到,老年人在睡觉的时候更容易被打断,而后面用while提出一个对比的概念,年轻人相比起来能获得更_______
28的睡眠;综合起来,选用efficiently(最有效率的)最为准确。50.beassociatedwith固定搭配;表示“与…联系在一起”;本句话表示“更多的睡眠通常都与健康度联系在一起”;51.先看整句话的含义,“如果他们能睡更长的时间,他们的感觉应该会更好以及…”那么,该处应该填入一个褒义词,选择alert比较恰当,表示“更加警觉,机灵”;52.根据判断,此处应该填入一个动词,剩下的动词有cling,function;整句话的意思是“当我们上了年纪的时候,我们一觉睡到天亮的能力下降了,但是,我们需要…的睡眠量并没有改变;”空格后的单词是well,cling在这里并不合适,一般与to连用;选用function最为适合;53.作者在首段已经提出这个观点是一个myth,那么显而易见最后一段中出现的myth是作为一种强调手段,应填入definitely;54.空格的前面是whentheywere…,“当他们年轻的时候”;应填入younger;55.本句的意思是“我们的数据显示老年人将从…获益;”空格的后面是“得到和他们在三十多岁的时候能得到的睡眠一样多”;根据上下文意思,该处应填入“continuing”;56.differentfrom固定搭配;表示“和…不同”;总的说来,建议大家在做题之前对所给的所有词汇进行一下简单的词性分类,这样,更有助于考生快速有效地从最小的范围内选出答案。SectionBPassageOne57.Whatcanwelearnfromsomerecentstudies?答案:D.Interraciallodgingmayhavediverseoutcomes.关键词:recentstudies,butalso定位:题干中somerecentstudies提示答案定位在第一段第一句话。解析:问题提问从最近的研究中我们可以了解到什么?第一段第一句中Severalrecentstudiesfoundthat…与题干对应,由此可知that后的就是recentstudies的内容,即beingrandomlyassignedtoaroommateofanotherracecanleadtoincreasedtolerancebutalsotoagreaterlikelihoodofconflict。其中“beingrandomlyassignedtoaroommateofanotherrace”对应了选项D中的“interraciallodging”,“can…butalso…”说明了interraciallodging是有利有弊的。因此D选项符合文意。而C选项“弊大于利”不符合文意,A“不同种族学生之间的争执是不可避免的”选项与B“不同种族的学生相互存在偏见”原文中没有明确提及58.WhatdoesSamBoakye'sremarkmean?答案:D.Beingsurroundedbywhitepeersmotivatesablackstudenttowork
29hardertosucceed.关键词:surrounded,somethingtoprove定位:题干中出现的人名SamBoakye提示答案定位在第四段第一句话。解析:问题提问SamBoakye的话是什么意思?通过定位可以找到SamBoakye的那段话,即ifyou'resurroundedbywhites,youhavesomethingtoprove.这句话前面的插入语-theonlyblackstudentonhisfreshmanyearfloor-介绍了SamBoakye作为黑人学生的背景,帮助我们理解之前那句话:如果你的周围都是白人,那么一定会去证明些什么,言下之意就是选项D“白人同伴的存在会激励黑人学生更加努力地去取得成功”。而选项A,B,C在文中没有明确提及。本题选项C有个干扰信息“thefreshmanyear”,在原文中出现。某些考生看到这个词,不假思索就选择了这个选项,但没有搞懂原文的意思,导致错误选择。请考生留意。59.WhatdoestheIndianUniversitystudyshow?答案:A.Interracialroommatesaremorelikelytofallout.关键词:IndianUniversity,morelikely,定位:题干中出现的机构名称IndianUniversity提示答案定位在第七段第一句话。解析:问题提问IndianUniversity的研究显示了什么?通过定位可以发现研究结果显示Interracialroommatewerethreetimesaslikelyastwowhiteroommatestonolongerlivetogether,与选项A中的morelikelytofallout对应,因此选择D。此处,fallout应该理解为“散伙,分开”有些考生可能因为不理解意思而产生歧义,请考生留意。60.WhatdoesAlecWebleyconsidertobethe“definitionofintegration”?答案:D.Theschoolrandomlyassignsroommateswithoutregardtorace.关键词:AlecWebley,definitionofintegration定位:题干出现的人名AlecWebley提示答案定位在第十段第一句。解析:通过定位找到人名,人名后出现“Thisisthedefinitionofintegration”,由“this”可知人名前就是我们要找的答案,即theprocessthrowsyoutogetherrandomly,“throwyoutogetherrandomly”与“randomlyassign”对应。意思与选项D符合。因此,此处选择D。61.WhatdoesGraceKaosayaboutinterraciallodging?答案:A.Itisunscientifictomakegeneralizationsaboutitwithoutfurtherstudy.关键词:GraceKao,generalizations定位:题干中出现的人名GraceKao以及generalizations提示答案定位在文章最后一段。根据最后一段意思:要得出Interraciallodging
30的一般规律,需要对学生的背景特征有更多的研究,与选项D的意思相同。而选项ABC在文中没有明确提及。PassageTwo本篇文章主要是围绕一份来自GlobalHumanitarianForum的报告展开的,在解题之前,通过对5个题干的浏览,以及在原文中的定位,可以发现,这篇文章是严格按照顺序原则来出题的。每一个题干中都有大写的字母,这些首字母大写的单词既是关键词,也是定位词,可以有效地帮助我们到原文中准确定位,节省答题时间。62.WhatisthefindingoftheGlobalHumanitarianForum?答案:B.Ratesofdeathfromillnesseshaverisenduetoglobalwarming.关键词:GlobalHumanitarianForum定位:第一段、第二段解析:一般而言,四级的阅读题目大致遵循顺序原则,此篇文章正好是遵循此规律的。在文章的第一段,第一行,我们看到“…300,000deathsandabout$125billion…”,根据这里,我们可以把答案锁定在选项A(economic)和选项B(Ratesofdeath),然后我们接着往下看,可以发现,第二段就没有再提到金钱方面了,而都是在讲死亡和疾病的话题,如第二段的第三行“…deathratesfromillnesses…”。所以,最后正确的选项是B。63.WhatdowelearnabouttheForum'sreportfromthepassage?答案:A.Itwaschallengedbysomeclimateandriskexperts.关键词:learn、Forum'sreport定位:第三段解析:根据顺序原则,我们在接下来的第三段里就找到了63题的答案。第三段的第一行就讲到“thereportdrewcriticismfromsomeexpertsonclimateandrisk”,这和A选项是完全相一致的,challenged是criticism的同义替换。B选项中的“interest”表示“兴趣”,主要用于好的事物,这里讲的都是对theForum'srepor的批评,显然就不合适了。C选项表达的意思跟原文正好相反,这个是肯定要排除的。然后,有的同学可能会选到D选项,可能是受到文中第四段“…primarilyinpoorcountries,werebeingseriouslyeffected…”这句话的影响。但是D选项中“abigstir”“一阵巨大的骚乱”文中是完全没有提到的。64.WhatdoesDr.PielkesayabouttheForum'sreport?答案:B.Itisinvalidintermsofmethodology.关键词:Dr.Pielke、say定位:第五段解析:在第五段,我们可以很快找到Pielke,然后找到他说的话,第二行“theForum'sreportwas‘amethodologicalembarrassment'”,然后在第六行“butthereport,hesaid‘willharmthe…itissodeeplyflawed'”
31。根据这两句话,选项中invalid是flawed的同义替换,我们可以很容易地选到B。65.WhatisSorenAndreasen'sviewofthereport?答案:D.Itsroughestimatesaremeanttodrawtheattentionofworldleaders.关键词:SorenAndreasen定位:第六段解析:在第六段的第二行和第三行,可以看到“thenumberwereroughestimates.Hesaidthereportwasaimedatworldleaders…”,根据这两句话,我们就能较轻松地将正确答案锁定在D选项。66.WhatdoesKofiAnnansayshouldbethefocusoftheCopenhagenconference?答案:D.Howrichcountriescanbetterhelppoorregionsreduceclimatehazards.关键词:KofiAnnan、focusoftheCopenhagenconference定位:第七段(即文中的最后一段)解析:最后一段是KofiAnnan说的一段话。我们在最后一段的第二行,focuson后面“…fromrichtopoorregionstohelpreduce…”后面的内容就无需再花时间去看了,因为他focus(关注)的地方,在此就已经陈述清楚了,正确答案就是D。PartVCloze文章大意:67.to68.specific69.key70.different71.prevent72.in73.focus74.over75.rather76.consumed77.vital78.amazed79.contain80.interact81.on
3282.up83.fill84.avoid85.doubt86.impact这是一篇关于科学饮食的科技新闻。为了让学生快速进入语境,文章第一段没有挖空。从第一段中,我们可以获得全文主旨:科学饮食的真谛是从大处着眼,67.第二段首句有个定语从句:科学饮食远不止分析每一口放到嘴里的饭。这里要选择一个介词,lift的原意是高举,在这里的意思就是“放到嘴边”,to表示方向。between表示在某某之间,不合题意。inside表示静态,与lift这个动作相矛盾。同理,B选项through,表示穿过,lift这个动作,到嘴边就结束了,并没有穿过嘴巴。68.按照原文的逻辑,接下来的一句话,表达过去人们如何如何,是为了给出“靶子”加以批评,所以,我们需要继续往后读,读到作者提倡的做法,然后反向理解一下,便可选出答案。69.根据语法搭配,只有key才可以和后面的to相搭配,所以选择A选项。70.句首的but,是题眼,表达对比之意,所以,下文开始讲述“另一种”“不同的”饮食习惯。因此,选择B选项,different。71.这里是个不定式短语,需要一个动词,由宾语heartdisease可知,“prevent”(预防)是最佳搭配。72.考察和general搭配的介词,只有in符合语法。73.需要一个动词和on搭配,语法上四个选项都可以搭配,只能从词义上判断,turnon表示打开,focuson表示注重,puton表示穿衣,carryon表示执行。根据宾语,“更广的层面”,可知应该选择focuson。74.需要一个和“时间段”搭配的介词,overaperiodoftime表示一段时间以来,符合题意。75.这里表示“是什么而不是什么”,应该用ratherthan才能准确达意。76.这是个分词短语作后置定语修饰前面的“thisorthat”,这里的thisorthat代指食物。convey是表达,不搭配。enter可以表示“输入,记下”,也不和食物搭配。和食物搭配的只有B和D,consume表示,消费或消耗。exhaust表示耗尽。很明显,这里的食物并不会耗尽,所以只能选B选项。这里我们可以回过头来,看一下第68题,文章的主旨是,“Scientistnowfocusonthebroaderpictureofthebalanceoffoodeatenoverseveraldaysoraweek”即“科学家现在注重最近几天内的均衡饮食”,与此能够形成对比的,“单个营养元素的定量摄入”,这里能表达特定量的词只有“certain”或者“specific”
33,这里用certain更自然,但是没有提供选项,因此就只能选择specific,表示“特定的”。77.需要个形容词,做后置定语,和forgoodhealth搭配,这里只有vital能和for搭配,表示“对…重要”。78.这里是一个Themore…themore的固定表达,表示“越……越……”,这里用amazed表达科研人员,对新发现所产生的“惊奇之感”。79.这里的they表示食物,结合后面的动词,构成定语从句,修饰“必备营养元素”,这里的用contain才能准确达意,“食物包含必备营养元素”80.需要一个动词和with搭配,只能选择A和B,但从语义上判断,必备营养元素之间会相互反应,肯定不会相互干扰。因此只能选择interact。81.这里需要一个介词和track搭配,只有ontherighttrack才符合语法82.这里根据题意,“蔬菜、水果和谷物构成了饭菜的四分之三”,这里makeup表达“构成”之意。83.这里需要一个动词,宾语是“剩余的四分之一”,从语义上理解,我们需要选择“填充”,因此,fillin是符合语法的。84.这里需要一个动词,结合题意,这个空应该表达“不吃”,才能和前面的eat形成对比,这里的avoid,表达避免的意思,比delete(删除)更切题。85.文章在最后一句,要下一个结论,这里用withoutadoubt表达“毫无疑问”,符合题目要求。86.这里需要一个名词,和on搭配,只有impact符合题意。总之,今年四级的完型填空,涉及3处名词,5处介词,7处动词,4处形容词和1处副词。只有1题(第68题)需要整体把握,其余部分只要在句子内部或者句子之间进行上下文逻辑比对或语法搭配,即可完成。PartVITranslation87.Theuniversityauthoritiesdidnotapprovetheregulation,nordidtheymakeanyexplanation/nordidtheygivethereasonfordoingso(也没有解释为什么).解析:本题考察了两个知识点。①nor的倒装句用法,后半句表示“也不”的否定意义,注意助动词的时态与上半句保持一致;②对某事做出解释的表达,考察了汉译英中动词转名词的技巧,explain→explanation,或者nordidtheygivethereasonfordoingso同样可以。88.Janeistiredofdealingwithcustomercomplaintsandwishesthatshecouldbeassigned(to)anotherjob(能被分配做另一项工作)解析:本题考察了wish从句的虚拟语气用法(can→could)和“分配某人做某事”
34的词组搭配,assignsb.tosth.或者assignsb.sth.89.Johnrescuedthedrowningchildattheriskofhisownlife(冒着自己生命危险).解析:本题考察了“冒着…的危险/风险做某事”的词组搭配,可以用attherisk/expenseofone'sownlife(冒着某人的生命危险做某事)90.Georgecalledhisbossfromtheairportbutit①washisassistantwhoanswered/pickedupthephone;②turnedoutthathisassistantanswered/pickedupthephone(接电话的却是他的助手)解析:该句比较灵活,在句法上,既可以使用强调句结构,也可以采用turnout的惯用搭配;在“接电话”的表达上,可以用pickup/answerthephone。强调句结构为itbesb.whodosth.,而turnout变化则较多,可以用turnouttobesb.whodosth.或者turnout+that+从句。91.Althoughhewasinterestedinphilosophy,hisfatherpersuadedhiminto/talkedhiminto(他的父亲说服他)majoringinlaw.解析:本题考察“说服某人做某事”的表达,persuade/talksb.intodoingsth.整体评价:今年6月的翻译题难度适中,89和91题的词组搭配是拿分题,而87题的倒装结构和88题的虚拟语气用法也是广大四级考生的“老朋友”,不熟悉实在说不过去。
