20##12月大学英语四级考试真题〔卷1〕答案与分析PartI. WritingThe Most Impressive Campus ActivityEvery university offers numerous kinds of activities to enrich students’extracurricular life. As one of the young college students, I have benefited a lot from all of these well-organized activities, but the one that has benefited me most is the debate petition which I took part in last year.That was a debate petition between different majors and the topic was about theoretical knowledge versus practices. What mattered most is not the result of the debate, but gathering background information and practicing the process of debate. Also, no individual could acplish the challenging task all by herself or himself, so joint efforts have played a significant role in winning the petition.

Currently, there are approximately 1000 of them.These bamboo-eating creatures are being threatened by many factors. Therefore,the importance of the protecting pandas is greater than ever before. 1."温顺的"可以译为"gentle, tame","长着独特的皮毛"还可以用"with a uniqueblack-and-white coat/ with unique fur".2."被列为"可以用"be listed as…","濒危物种"可以用"endangeredanimals/species".3."熊科"可以用"bear animals, bear species, bear family".4."以竹为食物"可以用"The animal that mainly eats bamboo/ whose food is mainlybamboo","正面临威胁"可以用"be under many threats/ face many threats".5. 最后一句也可以用"Therefore, to ensure their survival is of greater importance than ever before.".。
2014年12月大学英语四级考试真题(一)答案与详解Part Ⅰ Writing审题思路本篇题目一改过去常写的议论文，要求写对自己影响最大的大学同学。
根据题目要求，写作重点应当是描述，而不是议论。
考生首先应直接或间接地引出主题，然后通过具体事例阐释该同学对“我”产生重大影响的原因,最后发表议论，照应前文，升华主题。
由此可知，题目要求写一篇夹叙夹议，以叙述为主的作文。
写作提纲一、提出观点：同学“Tom ”改变了“我”（be subject to being pessimistic ，strive to encourage, appreciate) 二、阐释主题：1、在他的帮助下，我发现英语没那么难(be confused about ，make progress)2、他教我如何面对挫折(live through setbacks)三、升华主题：l 、“Tom”让我认识到了自信和乐观的重要性(the significance of self-confidence and optimism )2、这种态度使人受益终身(benefit people all his life)范文点评全文翻译对我影响最大的大学同学我曾经对自己的学习并不那么自信，而且遇到挫折时就容易悲观。
然而，当我的一个大学同学汤姆竭尽全力鼓励我的时候，我发现自己渐渐地有所改变。
我非常感激他对我的帮助。
以前我的英语不好，然而每当我对老师的讲解感到迷惑不解时，汤姆总是用清晰明了的方式给我解释。
渐高分范文 精彩点评A Classmate Who Has Influenced Me Most in College ① Once upon a time, I was not so confident about my study and was subject to being pessimistic when confronted with frustrations. ② However, I found myself gradually changing as Tom, one of my classmates in college, strived to encourage me. ③ I really appreciate his help. ④ I used not to be good at English ； however, whenever I was confused about the teacher’s explanation, he always interpreted it to me in- an explicit way. Gradually, I found English not so difficult and made progress day by day. ⑤ In addition, it was Tom who kept guiding me how to live through all kinds of setbacks in life. ⑥ I’l l never forget the very day when I failed my speech contest and I was overwhelmed and ashamed.⑦ Tom told me that nobody can defeat a person if he is determined to stand upto every failure. ⑧With his encouragement, I regained confidence, realizing that optimism was always the key to success. ⑨ Thanks to Tom, I eventually learned the significance ofself-confidence and optimism. They not only serve as indispensable characteristics of personality but also will benefit people all his life.① ②通过描述那个曾经缺乏自信而且悲观的 “我”渐渐地有所改变引出文章主题——对 “我”影响最大的大学同学，他竭尽全力鼓励“我”。

2014年专四参考答案PART I DICTATIONLimiting the growth of technology throughout history man has changed his physical environment to improve his way of life. With the tools of technology man has altered many physicall features of the earth. He has transformed wood lands into farmland: He has modified the face of the earth by cutting through mountains to build roads and railways. However these changes in the physical environment have not always had beneficial results. Today, pollution of the planet. Each day, thousands of tons of gases come out of the vehicles: smoke from factories pollutes the aire of industrialized areas and the surrounding countryside. The air in cities is becoming increasingly unhealthy. The pollution of water is equally harmful. In the sea, pollution from oil is killing a lot of sea plant and fish. It is now necessary for man to limit the growth of technology in order to survive on the earth．PART II LISTENING COMPREHENTIONPART III CLOZE31-35 ADBBD36-40 CACDD41-45 BCABD46-50 ACCBAPART IV GRAMMAR & VOCABULARY51-55 DBDCA56-60 BDACA61-65 DCDAB66-70 CCAAD71-75 AACCA76-80 DBDDAPART V READING COMPREHENTION81-85 CADBC86-90 CABDC91-95 AACDA96-100CDABDPART VI WRITINGSECTION AShould English Majors Study Maths?It is human nature to wish to know. But more often than not it is a wishful thinking. There is barely anyone that knows everything. Should English majors study maths? Basically, the answer is supposed to be yes. But in practice, it is hardly realistic or possible since maths is so hard a course and for one it usually takes years and possibly decades to learn it well. So I do not advocate students of English should waste so much time on a course that has so little to do with their major.To begin with, as English majors, we have so much to learn and study, such as linguistics, culture, literature, translation studies, to name a few, apart from the unattainable infinity of listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating. All of these need one to concentrate his limited time and energy on focal points. Studying maths, however, creates unnecessary distractions from our normal course. Secondly, math is such a hard course that not only a specially talented few can master it. I personally get absolutely nowhere with quantitative stuff. It is merely a dissipating waste of time if I am required to sign up for a maths course. Finally, the world asks of this age specialists who can get specific problems settled. Jack of all trades and expert o none is no longer a merit. It so happens that the so-called know-alls appear awkward in the real sitations and sometimes they even make mockery of themselves by saying that their English is not better than English major and their maths is worse than math majors.To recapture, wishing to be a know-all is neither necessary nor realistic in the world today. Asking English majors to study maths is very much like asking fish to fly. It is useless, dissipating and non-sensible.SECTION BApril 19, 2014 Dear Mike,Don’t you remember Michael, my former schoolmate, the guy who passed the National Admission Examination this year and was accepted by Fudan University? He will arrive in Shanghai this afternoon and unfortunately I am not able to go meet him since I need to take the final. Would you please meet him for me at Hongqiao station? He look G260 and will get there at 3:00. Michael is a tall thin guy, wearing thick glasses. He is like a camel in a flock of sheep. Youcannot miss him.Yours,Lucy。
