Seneca's thinking is still applicable today 问题：What are researchers rediscovering through their studies 解析：问题题干中的“researchers”和“today”是解题的关键，对应到文中第一段的“Now scientists are bringing this ancient wisdom up-to-date”。选项中“Seneca’s thinking “ 对应到“this ancient wisdom” ，而“still applicable”对应到“bring…up-to-date”,故答案为A。 47.B.

全国英语四级考试方法和技巧（实用篇） 一．听力 1．短对话 ①.答案往往在后半人的话语中（带有转折词、原因词、总结性的 ），重点也会引申推出选项答案。 ②.从答案选项中推敲，往往关键词听到与材料一致的， 很可能是陷阱（答案往往是总结、规纳性、替换词、意思一致性） ③.场景考点（每年必考），即听关键词（材料中心词往往对应于相应的 场合）比如，看电影想到影剧院，吃、点菜想到餐馆，时间飞机定票等 想到机场更多得自己不断总结此类关键词。 以后便能条件反射迅速选出答案 总结：听懂抓住重点部分信息，关键中心词必须会把握（语气、转折性 、总结性词等后为主），答案以同义词转换 +意思一致，不改变义反映。切忌无中生有，凭主观来选择。 实在是没听懂或没把握住意思和中心词，看选项来确定（同词不选， 与对话内容无关不选，意思和其他完全不一致排除，带大写性关键词 独一的也不选） 更多在于根据真题总结，以上尽为参考和练习 (充分利用时间提前看题为之重要 ) 2．短文 正题：听到什么与选项对应，意思不变情况下往往是答案 此类型关键就是一个能听及时，准确，把握此特点那听到什么与选项 一致就是答案；另一点误区选项意思与文章无关、无中生有、作者主 观臆断、某一选项与其他选项无关、相差太大往往是误区项；还有一 点题目是按照文章顺序来的，答案也往往顺着题目来的。 总结重点：关键性、重点和中心词必须听到，听之前各选项一定有所 了解，确定中心词并带着它有针对性去听文章。更多在于自己的总结 ，以上仅为参考和供练习。 3 填词 听之前有所了解文章大意， 第一遍听把单一性词填个大概并写点第一句关键意思和单词 ;第二遍完全填满单词并附带着写下第一长句， 确定和大概写出第二、三句长句关键词 ; 第三遍校对单词，并尽量补满长句。 更多在于自己的总结和听写的练习。 二．仔细阅读 1. 做之前花一、二分钟了解大意思（必要） CET4知识点

We’ve (礼仪) experts to come up with the following guidelines for 30using the alterative ways of delivering difficult messages. First of all, choose how personal you want to be. A face-to-face communication is the most 31 .Other choices, in descending order of personalization, are: a real-time phone call, a voice-mail message, a handwritten note, a typewritten letter, and the most 32is email. Some of these may change order according to the 33 situation or your own preferences; for example, a handwritten note might seem more personal than voice mail.

Colleges taking another look at value of merit-based aid Good grades and high tests scores still matter—a lot—to many colleges as they award financial aid. But with low-income students projected to make up an ever-larger share of the college-bound population in coming years, some schools are re-examining whether that aid, typically known as “merit aid”, is the most effective use of precious institutional dollars. George Washington University in Washington, D.C., for example, said last week that it would cut the value of its average merit scholarships by about one-third and reduce the number of recipients(接受者), pouring the savings, about $2.5 million, into need-based aid. Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa., made a similar decision three years ago. Now, Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y., says it will phase out merit scholarships altogether. No current merit-aid recipients will lose their scholarships, but need-based aid alone will be awarded beginning with students entering in fall 2008. Not all colleges offer merit aid; generally, the more selective a school, the less likely it is to do so. Harvard and Princeton, for example, offer generous need-based packages, but many families who don’t meet need eligibility(资格)have been willing to pay whatever they must for a big-name school. For small regional colleges that struggle just to fill seats, merit aid can be an important revenue-builder because many recipients still pay enough tuition dollars over and above the scholarship amount to keep the institution running. But for rankings-conscious schools in between, merit aid has served primarily as a tool to recruit top students and to improve their academic profits. “They’re trying to buy students,”says Skidmore College economist Sandy Baum. Studies show merit aid also tends to benefit disproportionately students who could afford to enroll without it. “As we look to the future, we see a more pressing need to invest in need-based aid,”says Monica Inzer, dean of admission and financial aid at Hamilton, which has offered merit scholarships for 10 years. During that time, it rose in US News & World Repor t’s ranking of the best liberal arts colleges, from 25 to 17. Merit aid, which benefited about 75 students a year, or about 4% of its student body, at a cost of about $ 1 million a year, “served us well,”Inzer says, but “to be
