Legal Age for Marriage
Throughout the United States, the legal age for marriage shows some difference. The most common age without parents’ consent is eighteen for both females and males. However, persons who are under age in their home state can get married in another state, and then return to the home state legally married. Each state issues its own marriage license. Both residents and nonresidents are qualified for such a license. The fees and ceremonies vary greatly from state to state. Most states, for instance, have a blood test requirement, but a few do not. Most states permit either a civil or religious ceremony, but a few require th e ceremony to be religious. In most states, a waiting period is required before the license is issued. This period is from one to five days depending on the state. A three-day wait
is the most common. In some states, there’s no required waiting period.

More Pressure From Academic Studies Does No Good To Us
Nowadays, we may often hear people around us complain that they are under great pressu re in their daily life. It is true that no pressure, no motivation. But, how about much mor e pressure? Different people have different views of point. As for me, I firmly think too much pressure in essence prevents people from achieving academic accomplishment rather than do good to us.
The causes are obvious. Firstly, in our opening society, people have to acquaint with a va st number of new things so as to obtain better lives, which request them transfering more times from academic studies to other fields, lessening their academic pressure. Secondly, more pressure from academic studies will make people produce mental problems such as s
tress and qualm, in the long run, which will make academic studies become impossible. Therefore in my opinion, those who would achieve academic accomplishment must not be
given more pressure. It is a good academic air that does good to us.

【参考译文】作者为何“完全困惑不解”？
【试题分析】本题为细节题。

【试题分析】本题为细节题，可用排除发解答。
【详细解答】根据短文第六段第二句“... I sat on it, quite na turally，since it happened to b e the chair I wanted to sit in”，可排除选项A和B；根据倒数第二段中的“since I’d walke d through the restaurant ahead of my wife．．．I had got there first，after all．” 可排除选项D；只有选项C不是男士就座的理由，故为正确答案。

【参考译文】作者对于礼节与妇女解放问题的态度如何？
【试题分析】本题为推理题。
【详细解答】从作者的叙述方式看，作者在讨论举止风度以及妇女解放问题时带有调侃语气。例如，在第四段的第二句中，作者说，他拒绝用一些过时的礼节来麻烦女士(事实上对女性表示礼貌恭维谈不上是“麻烦”)，而且之所以这样，乃是出于一种尊敬。又如，在第五段第二句中，作者将自己看作是那些具有“天然风度”(natural grace)的男士，而所谓“天然”，却是一切顺其自然，不受社会礼仪规范所约束。由此可以确定选项A为正确答案。
80．答案：B
【参考译文】下列哪一项最能体现短文大意？
【试题分析】本题为主旨题。
【详细解答】这篇文章的主题就是谈论礼节的，重点强调对旧有礼节的突破，人们的观念可以更新，并不是说现在就不需要礼节，女士就不需要男士的帮助和尊重。选项A、C、D都

2013年英语专四真题及答案解析--汇总 【2013年英语专四真题及答案解析--听写部分参考答案】 What is a dream for One theory is that we dream to release the deep, secret desires. We do not express these desires in real life because of the rules of polite society. Another theory is that dreams allow us to solve problems that we can't solve in real life. We go to sleep with a problem and wake up with the solution. This may be a way to use our dreams rather than a purpose of dreaming. If you believe that your dreams are important, then analyzing them may help you to focus on the problem and help you to find the solution. The modern image is that dreams are the brain's way of cleaning up the computer’s hard disk. Dreams organize the events of the day into folders and delete what is not needed. But we all know that very little of what we dream is concerned with what happened to us that day. 【2013年英语专四真题及答案解析--语法部分】 51.

2016年英语专业四级考试词汇语法真题 参考答案与解析 11. How can I concentrate if you _________ continually ______ me with silly questions? A. have… interrupted B. are… interrupted C. had… interrupting D. were… interrupting 选A。虽然我觉得更应该说you are continually interrupting me with silly questions。不过这里用现在完成时表示的是一个动作发生过成为过去经历，有可能多次发生，也就是打断一次、两次、三次等等不断重复到现在。 12.
