大学英语四级考试大纲
Syllabus for College English Test
—Band Four(CET-4)—
总则
国家教委在印发理工科本科和文理科本科用的两种《大学英语教学大纲》的通知中指出，大纲执行两年后，开始对结束四、六级学习的学生进行统一的标准化测试。大学英语四级考试(CET-4)就是根据这一规定而设计的。考试的目的在于全面考核已修完大学英语四级的
学生是否达到教学大纲所确定的各项目标。这种考试属于尺度相关常模参照性考试
(criterion-related norm-referenced test)。
教学大纲指出：大学英语教学的目的是培养学生具有较强的阅读能力、一定的听的能力(理工科适用的大纲还规定一定的译的能力)以及初步的写和说的能力，使学生能以英语为工具，获取专业所需要的信息，并为进一步提高英语水平打下较好的基础。为此，本考试主要考核学生运用语言的能力，同时也考核学生对语法结构和词语用法的掌握程度。
本考试是一种标准化考试。由于目前尚不具备口试的条件，暂时只进行笔试。考试范围主要是教学大纲所规定的一级至四级的全部内容(说与译的内容除外)。为保证试卷的信度，除短文写作是主观性试题外，其余试题都采用客观性的多项选择题形式。短文写作部分旨在较好地考核学生运用语言的能力，从而提高试卷的效度。
本考试于每学期结束前后举行，由大学英语四、六级标准考试设计组负责和实施。每年举行两次。
考试内容
本考试包括五个部分：听力理解、阅读理解、词语用法与语法结构、完形填空、短文写作。全部题目按顺序统一编号。
第一部分：听力理解(Part 1：Listening Comprehension)：共20题，考试时间20分钟
。这一部分包括两节：A节(Section A)有10题，每题含一组对话，对话后有一个问句。B节(Section B)有10题，分别安排在若干篇听力材料之后，每篇后有二至四道题，每题为一个问句。
听力部分的每个问句后有约15秒的间隙，要求考生从试卷所给出的每题四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案。录音的语速为每分钟约120词，念一遍。
选材的原则是：
1、话部分为日常生活中的一般对话，句子结构和内容不太复杂；
2、短篇听力材料为题材熟悉、情节不太复杂的故事、讲话、叙述等；
3、所用词语不超出教学大纲词汇表四级规定的范围。听力理解部分的目的是测试学生获取口头信息的能力。
第二部分：阅读理解(Part Ⅱ：Reading Comprehension)：共20题，考试时间35分。
要求考生阅读若干篇短文，总阅读量不超过1000词。每篇短文后有若干个问题。考生应根据文章内容从每题四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案。
选材的原册是：
1、题材广泛，可以包括人物传记、社会、文化、日常知识、科普常识等，但是所涉及的背景知识应能为学生所理解；
2、体裁多样，可以包括叙述文、说明文、议论文等；
3、文章的语言难度中等，无法猜测而又影响理解的关键词，如超出教学大纲词汇表四级的范围，用汉语注明词义。
阅读理解部分主要测试下述能力：
1、掌握所读材料的主旨和大意；
2、了解说明主旨和大意的事实和细节；
3、既理解字面的意思，也能根据所读材料进行一定的判断和推论；
4、既理解个别句子的意义，也理解上下文的逻辑关系。
阅读理解部分的目的是测试学生通过阅读获取信息的能力，既要求准确，也要求有一定速度。
第三部分：词语用法和语法结构(Part Ⅲ：Vocabulary and Structure)：共30题，考试时间20分钟。题目中40%为词和短语的用法，60%为语法结构。要求考生从每题四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案。
词语用法和语法结构部分的目的是测试学生运用词汇、短语及语法结构的能力。考试范围包括教学大纲词汇表及语法结构表一级至四级的全部内容。
第四部分：完形填空(Part Ⅳ ：Cloze)：共20题，考试时间15分钟。在一篇题材熟悉、难度适中的短文(约200词)中留有20个空白，每个空白为一题，每题有四个选择项，要求考生在全面理解内容的基础上选择一个最佳答案，使短文的意思和结构恢复完整。填空的词项包括结构词和实译词。
完形填空部分的目的是测试学生综合运用语言的能力。
第五部分：写作(Part Ⅴ：Writing)：共1题，考试时间30分钟。要求考生写出一篇100-120词的短文，试卷上可能给出题目，或规定情景，或要求看图作文，或给出段首句要求续写;或给出关键词要求写成短文。要求能够正确表达思想，意义连贯，无重大语法错误。写作的内容包括日常生活和一般常识。
短文写作部分的目的是测试学生运用英语书面表达思想的初步能力。
答题及计分方法
客观性试题用机器问卷，要求考生从每题四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题纸(Answer Sheet)上该题的相应字母中间用铅笔划一条横线。试卷(Test Paper)上不能作任
何记号。每题只能选择一个答案，多选作答错处理。多项选择题记分只算答对的题数，答错不扣分。主观性试题按科学的评分标准评分。试卷各部分记分采用计权的方法,折算成百分制，以60分为及格标准。凡达到及格标准的发给大学英语四级考试合格证书，达到85分的注明“优秀”字样。
试卷五个部分的题目数、计分和考试时间列表如下：
大学英语四、六级考试计分体制和成绩报道说明
自2005年6月考试起，大学四、六级考试的原始分数在经过加权、等值处理后，参照常模转换为均值为500、标准差为70的常模正态分数。同时，四、六级考试不设及格线，考试合格证书改为成绩报告单。
四、六级考试报道总分计算公式为：
式中X表示每个考生加权、等值处理后的原始分数，Mean表示常模均值，SD表示常模标准差。
目前，四、六级的分数常模群体由1987年的全国若干所重点大学的近万名本科生组成。四、六级考试委员会计划在2006年对常模进行第一次修订。
常模正态分数的特点是能够报道考生在常模群体中所处的百分位置。举例如下(参见表1和表2)：·某考生四级报道总分是450分，则其在常模群体中的百分位是24%，表示这名考生的英语成绩优于常模群体中24%的人。
·某考生六级报道总分是500分，则其在常模群体中的百分位在48%～57%之间，表示这名考生的英语成绩至少优于常模群体中48%的人，但不会优于57%的人。
四、六级考试单项分的报道分为四个部分，这四个部分以及各部分所占的分值比例分别为：听力(20%)、阅读(40%)、综合(25%)、作文(15%)。各单项报道分的满分分别为：听力142分；阅读284分；综合178分；作文106分。各单项报道分相加之和等于报道总分。
四、六级的单项报道分也是常模正态分数，但参照的常模是相应的单项常模。因此，单项报道分能够报道考生在各单项常模群体中所处的百分位置。举例如下(参见表1和表2)：
·某考生四级作文报道分数是62分，则其在常模群体中的百分位是在77%～86%之间，表示这名考生的英语成绩至少要优于常模群体中77%的人，但不会优于86%的人。
·某考生六级听力报道分数是100分，则其在常模群体中的百分位是54%，表示这名考生的英语听力成绩优于常模群体中54%的人。
表1 大学英语四级考试(CET-4)报道分数百分位对照表
对于四六级考试具有一个新的题型，新的题型和旧的题型最大的改变是什么？
江涛：首先是今年12月份的新四级的覆盖面是全国1000多所高校，这是覆盖面的问题。第二，从改革的精神来讲，新四级的改革精神是听说领先，原来听力的分值只占原分值的20%，但是今年12月份考试听力会上升到35%，这是第一个。口语的会下降。以前我们四级的准入分数线是80分，你会有资格，但是现在这个分数，你可能及格或者是只打了425分或者是475分，相当于及格线你就有权利或者是极限参加这个权利。第一个是听说能力上升了，第二是主观题加重了。这个对于很多大学生来讲是噩耗。为什么说是一个噩耗呢？以前除了25%是需要你自己写出来，大部分题型是A、B、C、D你可以抓阄。现在的主观题，新增主观题中，复合式听写成为了必考题，阅读理解增设了快速阅读理解和篇章的词汇，还有原先三选一当英译中变成了现在的中译英。主观题大概是35%，可能是降低了一些同学猜题或者是懵题这样的比例。
我举个例子，听力，有些单词不仅需要你听明白了，你要选出来，以前是听出来之后，你可以选出来A、B、C、D，现在你听懂了之后，你要把这个单词写出来。这样难度就会增加，加强了对这个考生的基本
功的拼写能力的查证。这是第二个比较大的改变。
还有更多的一些改变，就体现在具体的一些题型。刚才我也看在这个网站上有同学提出来，在考务上
发生了很大的变化。
在新四级与老四级的题型的变化当中，我们应该如何应对呢？
江涛：我总是试图通过这种方式来给我们广大的网民或者是同学更有效，更实际的方式和方法。首先第一，我们拿听力来讲，因为听力从原来的20%上升到了35%，并且改革发生了大的改变，以前只有两个部分。每个部分占10%，现在增加了一个长对话。并且复合式听写扩充到50%，我刚才听彭校长刚才在说的时候，我也有同感。比如说老师说，听说怎么样提高。先从语音课去攻克。我举个例子，在听力的时候，我们很多同学听力不是听不懂，是反应太慢。打个比方，我们0.1秒应该反应出来的，他可能要花2秒或者是3秒才反应出来。为什么我说发音呢？我们当声波传到耳膜之后我们在快速查对，我们在脑子里存的声波符号和这个符号能不能对应上。如果能对应上，就是这个意思。如果这个发音关过不了，在大脑里存的声波富豪是一个错的，正确的过来以后，自然而然会增强你的反应时间。我先说到这个地方，从这一点上来讲的话，我们的彭校长在这方面绝对是一个专家。在这儿我也代表广大网民，发音的细节性的东西，
请彭校长给大家发音方面的一些具体的建议
如何对作文第一关，就是不同的结构性分析的话，如何来写这个作文？这个作文他应该如何来写，才
能写到一个标准的分数？
江涛：这个其实很难说，因为通过这种方式的话，没有这个黑板或者是没有范文的话，很难通过这个镜头来观看这次访谈的同学们有一个质的把握。但是我想，写作文的话，其实现在在新四级的改革之后，这个作文，其实是提到一个很战略性的位置。以前我们很多同学认为，作文是一个写，无论前面发挥得怎么样，作文是最后一个部分了。12月份我们将要碰到的四级考试，作文是作为第一块出来的。我们要把它提到一个战略高度来准备这个作文考试。其实说一千道一万，在作文考试的准备当中，我个人觉得，无外乎这样几的步骤。首先第一个就是要审题，很多同学可能会自以为然，可能会觉得，我不需要审题。我觉得四级的作文题目非常容易，但是实际证明我们在阅卷过程当中，很多同学写来写去，写偏了。我举几个简单的例子。2002年12月份，有一篇文章，中文名字叫做诚信是值得的。当时的考试要求是，他有两点。第一点，请您列举一些社会上不诚信的例子。第二，让您谈一谈，做人做事应该诚信。其实在四级作文当中只要求你写120个字就可以了。我经常开玩笑说，同学，你想一想，去掉标题，去掉几个关键词，实际上剩下来不需要你写太多的字。我们如果分重点的话，那前面实际上举一两个例子就可以了。花三四十个篇幅够足够了。后面相对来讲来论证一下诚信。而我们很多同学，这个脑袋会很大，列举一会儿，又是上车被小偷扒了，一会儿买米里头搀沙子了，前头写了90个字，后来写了一两句话。实际上这是属于审题
不当。这个说一千道一万，这是非常重要的。
第二个就是审题之后，我真的建议很多同学能够打一些腹稿，很多同学往往说，前面我经常建议大家，30分钟的写作怎么去花呢？五分钟的审题和打腹稿，20分钟用于来正式写作，还有5分钟用于检查。实际上我们很多人无限的把中间20分钟写作文的时间膨胀了。一个头，一个尾。很多中国的大学生不注意平时的训练，前面五分钟，后面五分钟收掉了。这样会导致什么问题呢？为什么有很多同学不愿意花前面五分钟构思，去打腹稿，他会觉得浪费时间。但我告诉很多大学生，你为了要节省前面的五分钟，从而抛弃前面的审题和构思打腹稿的这个时间的话，未来你在写作过程当中，卡壳，咬着铅笔在冥思苦想的时间要多于五分钟。学生考试的时候，我经常在教室外头看一看这些学生，很多学生在写作的时候咬一个笔头，因为写到这些句，前面构思不好，不知道下面写什么。这是一个时间。还有最后检查的五分钟也是非常有必要的。我们经常有一些同学犯很多错误。这样的错误，任何人花三分钟，五分钟，心平气和看一看，都可以使你的作文能够上一个档次。这些东西，大家平时不注意的，如果你们注意了，都会再提高你们的分数。如果要是说在作文方面，你需要了解更多的信息的话，也请关注我们的讲座信息。可能在未来的专题讲座当中，有关于作文的东西，我们可以通过黑板，BBT文件或者是散发我们的讲义。
四级和六级的线，今年过去的考试，定的分数线是425分，相当于以前的60分。你四级过了425分之后的话，那么你下一次有资格去参加六级考试，但是教育部考试中心规定的参加六级的资格一共有如下几个。首先第一个是你修完了大学四年的英语课程。一般的大学，一般是非英语专业，大四就没有英语课程了。一般报考六级首先是大二、大三的学生。第二，已经通过了四级的425分的分数线。这样两个标准才有可能报考六级。
为什么还有困难呢？是因为你们没有把英语作为一个工具在用它，没有把它作为一个技巧在练它，我在这里告诉每一位同学，如果在今天开始，你改变学习英语的方法的话，将来你的进步一定会出现质的飞跃。怎么改变呢？从现在开始，把英语作为一个工具，每天去用它。英语不是研究出来的，英语是用出来的。就像我儿子学中文一样，不是学中文，而是用了中文，由于他用了中文，所以他学会了英文。他的读和写不行，他只会用听。你在英语学习过程中间，一定要以听说为切入点，这是语言的第一功能。
首先第一，你考不考四六级，教育部说了不算，教育部考试中心说了不算，你们学校说不了算。谁说了算呢？市场说了算。因为在未来，你要说一份非常好的工作，而现在我们的四六级从去年开始改革以来，连及格证书都没有了，只有一个单。对于大家来讲，短时间内想谋求一个非常好的工作，找到一个很好的落脚处，有一个非常高的人生起步的话，我真的很建议，我们广大的大学生朋友能够非常严肃，也非常认真的来对待这次四级考试，尽可能的考出高分出来。

大学英语四级专项训练——选词填空 （一） Americans are proud of their variety and individualty, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform.

The television repairman who wears a uniform tends to __4__ more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the __5__ of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform.

They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes. Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of __8__ experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without __9__, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act __10__, on the job at least.

Cognitive( 认识派的) researchers, who study various aspects of mental life, maintain that rewards often destroy creativity by encouraging dependence on __2__ and gifts from others. The latter view has gained many supporters, __3__ among educators. But the careful use of small __4__ rewards speaks creativity in grade school children, suggesting that properly presented inducements( 刺激) indeed __5__inventiveness, according to a study in the June Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. “If kids know they’re working f or a reward and can focus on a relatively __6__ task, they show the most creativity,” says Robert Eisenberger of the University of Delaware in Newark. “But it’s easy to __7__ creativity by giving rewards for poor performance or creating too much anticipation for rewards.

大学英语四级考试模拟试卷及参考答案(第 一套） Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes) Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is foll owed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fou r choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and ma rk the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method o f answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships betwee n observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to o rganize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniq ues, and procedures for implementing the finding of science. Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progr ess in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comp rehend the universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy an d certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or disli kes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover m ay shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unple asant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of re fusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice

Calculate for a moment what could be done with even a part of those hours. Five thousand hours, I am told, are what a typical college undergraduate spends working on a bachelor's degree. In 10,000 hours you could have learned enough to become an astronomer or engineer. You could have learned several languages fluently. If it appealed to you, you could be reading Homer in the original Greek or Dostoyevsky in Russian. If it didn't, you could have walked around the world and written a book about it. The trouble with television is that it discourages concentration. Almost anything interesting and rewarding in life requires some constructive, consistently applied effort. The dullest, the least gifted of us can achieve things that seem miraculous to those who never concentrate on anything. But Television encourages us to apply no effort. It sells us instant gratification(满意). It diverts us only to divert, to make the time pass without pain. Television's variety becomes a narcotic(麻醉的), nor a stimulus. Its serial, kaleidoscopic (万花筒般的)exposures force us to follow its lead.

Capturing your attention—and holding it—is the prime motive of most television programming and enhances its role as a profitable advertising vehicle.

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different.
