2. C) 根据上句,飞机在飞行过程中,突然出现了异常的晃动,根据非语言线索即常识可知这时一般空中小姐要出来解释一下或察看有没有受伤的乘客,另外根据词汇线索即下文出现的she可指,选项C为正确答案。Steward指男性的乘务员,pilot意为“飞机驾驶员”,crew为“机组”都不合适。

3. B) 根据上下文可判断此句句义:空姐迅速但是小声地告诉大家飞机驾驶员昏了过去。四个选项中announce, report是不及物动词,不符;inform是及物动词,意为“通知”,一般可用在短语inform sb. of sth.或inform sb. that...中,例如:Have you informed the m of your intended departure?你已经通知他们你要离开吗?We were informed that two prisoners had escaped from the prison.我们获知两名犯人从监狱中逃了出来。

8. C) 根据语义线索可知此时飞机飞行在机场上空,另外根据语法线索此空需要一个可以放在名词后面修饰的副词,故只有below正确。

9. B) 根据上下文由于开飞机的人并不是飞机驾驶员,他只能靠地面机场传送来的指令操作飞机,由此可以判断飞机非常贴近地面,也非常危险。故此处使用介词close to。

10. A) 根据语义线索和词汇线索可知选项A为正确答案。to one’s relief是固定搭配,意为“令人欣慰的”。

11. B) 根据句义和语法线索可知选项B had to为正确答案。

参考答案及详解

1. A) 根据句义“现在那些东西(指以上提到的打字机、地球仪、百科全书)显得太落后了”可知,本空正确答案为A items

2. C) 通过分析本句结构可知此空所在句是一个从句,作主句的原因状语,结合选项可知此空需要动词的过去分词表示“确信、相信”的意思,故选项C为正确答案,因为“be conv inced that”意为“确信、相信”。

3. B) 主句中动词为insist时,一般宾语从句应该使用虚拟语气,并且一般情况下省略should。

4. B) 此空前it的使用法在语法上叫“虚义”it,因此它无法和talk abo ut, mention搭配使用。come to 有几种意义分别为“归因是”,“结果是”;“谈到”,“想到”;“总共”,“共达”等。Turn to意为“转向,指向”等。根据上下文可推断句义为“当谈到计算机的问题时,…”,由此可见此空应选B come to。

5. A) 根据句义“许多学校在没有制定良好的教学计划前,就屈从了家长们的压力购买了电脑。”可判断此空应使用介词without。

6. A) 根据上下文可知学校迫于家长的压力不得不购买了电脑,这使得老师们处于两难境地,即家长的压力和明智正确的教育方针,故此空选A。clever一般用来指人。

7. A) agree on意为“同意”某某观点。Agree with后接人。

8. D) that用于此空引导定语从句。

9. C) 此句句义为“很多钱被用来购买电脑教学资料,但是研究表明用纸和笔教学能达到同样的教学效果。”可知,此空词应使此句构成比较结构,而选项A和B都没有此功能,选项D意义不符,故选项C 为正确答案,just as well原为固定搭配,意为“幸亏,幸而”,但在此处是省略了第二个as的比较结构。

10. C) 根据句意“潜在的危险”可知此空正确答案为选项C。

11. C) adapt to意为“适应”。Devote …to意为“奉献,献身于”意义不符。

12. B) 根据上下文可推断句义为:不是每个学校都能买得起电脑。故此空选B。

13. D) 此空涉及yet的用法。首先可用排除法排除already, of course, i n addition,因为他们要么意义不符,要么用法不符。Yet既可作副词也可作连词。作副词时意为“还、仍然、尚”,常用于否定句中,如Much remain yet to be done. / He has not yet hear d the good news.有时意为“已经”,常用于疑问句中。作连词时意为“而,然而,可是”。此空yet符合第一种用法。

14. A) “agitate for”意为“鼓动,赞成”。

15. D) where用于此空引导非限定性的定语从句。

4. Have you ever wondered what our future is like?Practically all people _1_ a desire to predict their future _2_.Most people seem inclined to _3_ this task using causal reasoning.First we _4_ recognize that future circumstances are _5_ caused or conditioned by present ones.We learn that getting an education will _6_ how much money we earn later and that swimming beyond the reef may bring an unhappy _7_ with a shark.

Second,people also learn that such _8_ of cause and effect are probabilistic(可能的) in nature.That is,the effects occur more often when the causes occur than when the causes are _9_, but not always.Thus,students learn that studying hard _10_ good grades in most instances,but not every time.Science makes these concepts of causality and probability more _11_ and provides techniques for dealing _12_ then more accurately than does causal human inquiry.In looking at ordinary human inquiry,we need to _13_ between prediction and understanding.Often,even if we don't understand why,we are willing to act _14_ the basis of a demonstrated

predictive ability.

Whatever the primitive drives _15_ motivate human beings,satisfying them depends heavily on the ability to _16_ future circumstances.The attempt to predict is often played in a _17_ of knowledge and understanding.If you can understand why certain regular patterns _18_,you can predict better than if you simply observe those patterns.Thus,human inquiry aims _19_ answering both "what" and "why" question,and we pursue these _20_ by observing and figuring out.

参考答案及详解

1. C) 根据上下文,此空应该为介词,故选项A和B可被排除,因为它们后边不能直接跟名词短语。根据句义,选项C为正确答案。

2. D) 根据语义线索(报纸有一个基本目的就是以最快速度从新闻来源处得到新闻)可知选项D为正确答案。

3. C) 根据语义线索选项C know 为正确答案。

4. B) 此题涉及other, another 两词的用法。Other可以单独使用也可以和定冠词the一起使用,other一般用来修饰表示不确定所指的复数可数名词,意为“其他”;the other用来指代或修饰特定范围内的第二者或第三者等,不合适。Another一般修饰可数名词单数,不合适One another是相互代词,不能作限定词。综上,根据语法线索,选项B为正确答案。

5. A) 根据上下文,该句句义有转折,故表示转折意义的关系副词选项A However为正确答案。其它三词:and为表示并列关系的并列therefore和so为表示因果关系的关系副词。

6. D) 根据上下文,报纸报道新闻应该发展更新更快的通讯方式,可知其目的是为提高速度从而提高效率。故选项D为正确答案。

7. C) 此题可用排除法。根据语义线索(今天印刷的和人们阅读的报纸比以往任何时候都多)可将A,B 和D排除。

8. D) 此题涉及动词keep的用法。动词keep后可接复杂宾语结构,即宾语+宾语补语的结构。形容词, ed分词,ing分词等都可作宾补。其中,ed分词表示被动含义;ing分词表示主动含义。此句句义为“除了使读者知悉最新的新闻外…”,因此根据语法线索,含有被动意义的选项D为正确答案。

9. B) 根据句义可知此空应使用意为“通过”的介词。故选项B through 为正确答案。

10. B) 根据上下文可推断此句大概句义为“报纸通过广告维持它们的存在”,故选项B existence“存在”为正确答案。

11. C) 根据上下句句义可以推断,报纸不是通过出售其本身所得来维持其生存,而是通过刊登广告的收入来维持其生存,并且对于大多数的报纸来说主要的经费来源是商业广告,而不是出售报纸,因此可以猜测出报纸的售价不能涵盖其制作印刷成本,因此选项C为正确答案。其它三项意义不符。

12. A) 根据上句可推断此句的答案只能从A、B两项之间产生。Origin意为“起源,根源”不合适。故选项A source“来源”为正确答案。

13. C) 根据此句义“这(报纸对广告商的价值)是以报纸的发行量来衡量”及上下文可推断此空应填动词的被动形式,故选项C为正确案。

14. B) 选项B为 ed分词作后置定语。

15. D) 根据词汇线索和语义线索可知,此处需要使用介词about,表示“关于社区、国家和世界的信息”。

6. The United States is well known for its network of major highways designed to help a driver get from one place to another in the shortest possible time. ___1___ these wide modern roads are generally ___2___ and well maintained, with___3___ sharp curves and straight sections, a direct route is not always the most ___4___ one.

14. A. lying B. laying C. laid D. lied

15. A. there B. when C. which D. where

参考答案及详解

1. A) 此空四个选项都是从属连词,但是它们的属性是不同的,例如:although是表示转折关系的;since,because,therefore是表示原因关系的。通过阅读此空所在句得知大概句义为:“尽管这些宽阔的现代化公路通常很平坦且维护良好,转弯也很少,但是一直保持笔直的公路不总是令人赏心悦目”。根据语义线索和语法线索可知此空应填表示转折关系的选项A。

2. C) 根据词汇线索和词义搭配可知,stable,splendid和complicated一般不能用来修饰roads。

3. B) 根据语义线索可推断此空正确答案为选项B few。

4. C) 根据上下文可推测出如果高速公路总是保持笔直,对于驾驶者来说是非常枯燥的,因此本空的正确答案为C enjoyable。

5. D) 介词by能和动词pass搭配,意为“经过,掠过”。

6. B) 本句中的联系副词Furthermore说明本句是对上一句的进一步补充和信息的增加,由此可推测本句句义为高速公路不仅经过风景区和乡村,通常还“将庞大的都市中心区连接起来”。故正确答案为B。

7. D) “交通拥挤”用heavy 和traffic搭配。

8. A) 通过分析可知,这里使用的是一个非限定性定语从句,四个选项中只有A when 具备此语法功能。

9. B) 根据上下句关系可推断此句为条件句,故选项B为正确答案。

10. A) 根据主句中的“older ... roads”可推断此空需要填一个比较意义的副词,以构成对比关系,故选项A relatively“相应地,相对地”为正确答案。其他三词词义分别为:regularly“有规律地,定期地”;respectively “各自地”;reasonably“有理由地”。

11. B) 根据此空前后词及结构可断定此空应使用比较级,故可排除A和D。另外根据上下文可推测此空应为less,因为“more heavily traveled”意为“车辆拥挤的”公路,与常识不符。

12. D) 从下文的others可知此空正确答案为D some。

13. B) 根据上文的slopes和下文的hillsides就可以断定这里需要一个表示路况不好的词,选项A rocks 意义不符,故只有B cliffs “悬崖”为正确答案。

参考答案及详解

1. A) 此空四个选项都是从属连词,但是它们的属性是不同的,例如:although是表示转折关系的;since,because,therefore是表示原因关系的。通过阅

读此空所在句得知大概句义为:“尽管这些宽阔的现代化公路通常很平坦且维护良好,转弯也很少,但是一直保持笔直的公路不总是令人赏心悦目”。根据语义线索和语法线索可知此空应填表示转折关系的选项A。

2. C) 根据词汇线索和词义搭配可知,stable,splendid和complicated一般不能用来修饰roads。

3. B)根据语义线索可推断此空正确答案为选项B few。

4. C) 根据上下文可推测出如果高速公路总是保持笔直,对于驾驶者来说是非常枯燥的,因此本空的正确答案为C enjoyable。

5. D) 介词by能和动词pass搭配,意为“经过,掠过”。

6. B) 本句中的联系副词Furthermore说明本句是对上一句的进一步补充和信息的增加,由此可推测本句句义为高速公路不仅经过风景区和乡村,通常还“将庞大的都市中心区连接起来”。故正确答案为B。

7. D) “交通拥挤”用heavy 和traffic搭配。

8. A)通过分析可知,这里使用的是一个非限定性定语从句,四个选项中只有A when 具备此语法功能。

9. B)根据上下句关系可推断此句为条件句,故选项B为正确答案。

10. A)根据主句中的“older ... roads”可推断此空需要填一个比较意义的副词,以构成对比关系,故选项 A relatively“相应地,相对地”为正确答案。其他三词词义分别为:regularly“有规律地,定期地”;respectively“各自地”;reasonably“有理由地”。

11. B)根据此空前后词及结构可断定此空应使用比较级,故可排除A和D。另外根据上下文可推测此空应为less,因为“more heavily traveled”意为“车辆拥挤的”公路,与常识不符。

12. D)从下文的others可知此空正确答案为D some。

13. B)根据上文的slopes和下文的hillsides就可以断定这里需要一个表示路况不好的词,选项A rocks 意义不符,故只有B cliffs “悬崖”为正确答案。

14. A)根据题目和选项可断定此空应为towns的后置定语,由此可猜测句义为“位于深谷中的城镇”,“位于”lie是不及物动词,不能以过去分词的形式出现作名词的后置修饰语,故正确答案为lie的现在分词形式lying。

15. D)定语从句修饰places用where来引导。

8. There was a time when parents who wanted an educational present for the ir children would buy a typewriter, a globe or an encyclopedia set. Now those ___ 1___ seem hopelessly old fashioned; this Christmas, there were a lo t of personal computers under the tree. ___ 2___ that computers are the key to success, parents are also frantically insisting that children ___ 3___ taught to use them in schoo l—as early as possible. The problem for schools is that when it ___ 4 ___ computers, parents don’t always know best. Many schools are yielding to parental impatience and are purchasing hardware ___ 5___ sound education al planning so they can say, “OK, we’ve moved into the computer age.”Teachers found themselves caught in the middle of the problem—between parent pressure a nd ___ 6___ educational decisions. Educators do not even agree ___ 7 ___ how computers should be used. A lot of money is going for computerized e ducational materials ___ 8___ research has shown can be taught ___ 9 ___ with pencil and paper. Even those who believe that all children should h ave access to computers, warn of potential ___ 10___ to the very young. The temptation remains strong largely because young children ___ 11___ s o well to computers. First graders have been seen willing to work for two hours on math skills. Some have an attention span of 20 minutes. ___ 12___ sch ool can afford to go into computing, and that creates ___ 13___ another problem: a division between the haves and have nots. Very few parents are agita ting ___ 14___ computer instruction in poor school districts, ___ 15 ___ there may be barely enough money to pay the reading teacher.

1. A. items B. toys C. sets D. series

2. A. Given B. Provided C. Convinced D. Believed

3. A. are B. be C. are being D. were

4. A. talks about B. comes to C. turns to D. mentions

5. A. without B. with C. through D. for

6. A. wise B. clever C. slow D. enough

7. A. on B. with C. to D. about

13. A. already B. of course C. in addition D. yet

14. A. for B. against C. to buy D. use

15. A. for B. in any case C. although D. where

参考答案及详解

1. A) 根据句义“现在那些东西(指以上提到的打字机、地球仪、百科全书)显得太落后了”可知,本空正确答案为A items

2. C) 通过分析本句结构可知此空所在句是一个从句,作主句的原因状语,结合选项可知此空需要动词的过去分词表示“确信、相信”的意思,故选项C为正确答案,因为“be conv inced that”意为“确信、相信”。

3. B) 主句中动词为insist时,一般宾语从句应该使用虚拟语气,并且一般情况下省略should。

4. B) 此空前it的使用法在语法上叫“虚义”it,因此它无法和talk abo ut, mention搭配使用。come to 有几种意义分别为“归因是”,“结果是”;“谈到”,“想到”;“总共”,“共达”等。Turn to意为“转向,指向”等。根据上下文可推断句义为“当谈到计算机的问题时,…”,由此可见此空应选B come to。

5. A) 根据句义“许多学校在没有制定良好的教学计划前,就屈从了家长们的压力购买了电脑。”可判断此空应使用介词without。

6. A) 根据上下文可知学校迫于家长的压力不得不购买了电脑,这使得老师们处于两难境地,即家长的压力和明智正确的教育方针,故此空选A。clever一般用来指人。

7. A) agree on意为“同意”某某观点。Agree with后接人。

8. D) that用于此空引导定语从句。

9. C) 此句句义为“很多钱被用来购买电脑教学资料,但是研究表明用纸和笔教学能达到同样的教学效果。”可知,此空词应使此句构成比较结构,而选项A和B都没有此功能,选项D意义不符,故选项C 为正确答案,just as well原为固定搭配,意为“幸亏,幸而”,但在此处是省略了第二个as的比较结构。

10. C) 根据句意“潜在的危险”可知此空正确答案为选项C。

11. C) adapt to意为“适应”。Devote …to意为“奉献,献身于”意义不符。

12. B) 根据上下文可推断句义为:不是每个学校都能买得起电脑。故此空选B。

13. D) 此空涉及yet的用法。首先可用排除法排除already, of course, i n addition,因为他们要么意义不符,要么用法不符。Yet既可作副词也可作连词。作副词时意为“还、仍然、尚”,常用于否定句中,如Much remain yet to be done. / He has not yet hear d the good news.有时意为“已经”,常用于疑问句中。作连词时意为“而,然而,可是”。此空yet符合第一种用法。

14. A) “agitate for”意为“鼓动,赞成”。

15. D) where用于此空引导非限定性的定语从句。

9.As the plane circled over the airport, everyone sensed that something was wrong.The plane was moving unsteadily through the air, and although the passengers ha d ___ 1___ their seat belts, they were suddenly thrown forward.

13. A. road B. path C. flight D. run

14. A. Outdoors B. Away C. Beside D. Outside

15. A. for B. in C. over D. on

参考答案及详解

1. B) 根据语义线索可知,故事发生在飞机上,人们坐飞机的时候都要系安全带。“系安全带”用动词fasten seat belts。故选项B为正确答案。

2. C) 根据上句,飞机在飞行过程中,突然出现了异常的晃动,根据非语言线索即常识可知这时一般空中小姐要出来解释一下或察看有没有受伤的乘客,另外根据词汇线索即下文出现的she可指,选项C为正确答案。Steward指男性的乘务员,pilot意为“飞机驾驶员”,crew为“机组”都不合适。

3. B) 根据上下文可判断此句句义:空姐迅速但是小声地告诉大家飞机驾驶员昏了过去。四个选项中announce, report是不及物动词,不符;inform是及物动词,意为“通知”,一般可用在短语inform sb. of sth.或inform sb. that...中,例如:Have you informed the m of your intended departure?你已经通知他们你要离开吗?We were informed that two prisoners had escaped from the prison.我们获知两名犯人从监狱中逃了出来。

4. B) 根据语义线索和语法线索可确定if为正确答案,句义为:…问是否有人知道一些机械原理或至少怎样开车。

5. A) 根据语义线索可知此空应使用介词after,意为:在一阵犹豫之后。

6. A) 根据上文可知飞行员已经昏了过去,所以只有把他移到move一边去,故选项A为正确答案。

7. D) 根据句义:这个人把飞行员移到一边后,坐在了飞行员的位置上,从而可以确定选项D为正确答案。其他三项意义或用法不符。

8. C) 根据语义线索可知此时飞机飞行在机场上空,另外根据语法线索此空需要一个可以放在名词后面修饰的副词,故只有below正确。

9. B) 根据上下文由于开飞机的人并不是飞机驾驶员,他只能靠地面机场传送来的指令操作飞机,由此可以判断飞机非常贴近地面,也非常危险。故此处使用介词close to。

10. A) 根据语义线索和词汇线索可知选项A为正确答案。to one’s relief是固定搭配,意为“令人欣慰的”。

11. B) 根据句义和语法线索可知选项B had to为正确答案。

13. D) 根据文章可知飞机在经过很长的滑行后才停下,故选项D为正确答案。另外其他三项的词义在此处不符。

14. D) 根据上下文可推测当飞机着陆的时候,许多乘客的家人或有关人员非常焦急地在飞机外边等候,故outside为正确答案。Outdoors意为“室外”,用在此处意义明显不符。

15. D) 根据词汇线索可知选项D为正确答案,意为congratulate ...on... 是固定搭配,例如:Tom congratulates me on my success in passing the test.汤姆祝贺我通过了这次考试。

1. Today, as in every other day of the year, more than 3,000 U.S. adolescents will smoke their first cigarette on their way to becoming regular smokers as adults. During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3,000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths attributed to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death. Since the late 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised. First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors exceeded that among female by nearly 10 percent. The statistic is reversing. Third, several recent studies have indicate high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent . Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade, no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking levels among youth. 1. According to the author, the deaths among youth are mainly caused by _____. A. traffic accidents B. smoking-related diseases C. murder D. all of these 2. Every day there are over _____young people who will become regular smoker. A. 75 B. 23 C. 30 D. 3,000 3. By "dropout" (in paragraph 3) the author means______. A. students who failed the examination

专四听写与听力理解上外12套模拟题答案6-12 Model Test 6 Authority and Creativity In many countries, authority is seldom questioned, either because it is highly respected, or because it is feared . Sometimes, too, because rank has been important in certain societies for a long time, people have been trained never to question those in authority. In other countries, including America, children are trained to question and search for answers. When a child asks a question, he will often be told to go to the library and find the answer for himself. By the time students reach the age of 14 or 15, they may be developing exciting new ideas in all fields of science and arts . To encourage such creativity, there are many national prizes offered to students every year for their scientific discoveries and artistic accomplishments. This interest in questioning and searching may be considered by some people as bad for young people's manners. This impression may be created when visitors notice young Americans asking questions and arguing with older people . 1-5 CABDB 6-10 DCBDC 11-15 DACBC 16-20 DCADC 21-25 CBDBA 26-30 CDBAC Model Test 7 Driving in the US When driving in the United States, it’s a good idea to have an internaitonal driver’s license if you don’t have a state license. Each of the 50 states has its own traffic laws. For example, in some states drivers can pump their own gas at “self-service islands”, while in others this is not allowed. Drivers are expected to know and understand the laws even if they don’t live in the state. Get information when you cross the border into a state at a tourist information center. There is a national speed limit of 55 miles per hour, or about 80 kilometers per hour. Americans usually start and stop slowly and are generally polite about letting cars enter busy streets. They usually stop for people who are walking and let them cross the street first. In many states, you may turn right after stopping at a corner, even if there a red light. 1-5 DBABB 6-10 CCBBD 11-15 CBACD 16-20 BAACD 21-25 BABBD 26-30 CDADB Model Test 8 Why Do People Smoke

2014年英语专业四级真题及答案(阅读理解)

TEXT A After breakfast the boys wandered out into the play-ground. Here the day-boys were gradually assembling. They were sons of the local clergy, of the officers at the Depot, and of such manufacturers or men of business as the old town possessed. Presently a bell rang, and they all trooped into school. This consisted of a large, long room at opposite ends of which two under-masters conducted the second and third forms, and of a smaller one, leading out of it, used by Mr. Watson, who taught the first form. To attach the preparatory to the senior school these three classes were known officially, on speech days and in reports, as upper, middle, and lower second. Philip was put in the last. The master, a red-faced man with a pleasant voice, was called Rice; he had a jolly manner with boys, and the time passed quickly. Philip was surprised when it was a quarter to eleven and they were let out for ten minutes' rest. The whole school rushed noisily into the play-ground. The new boys were told to go into the middle, while the others stationed themselves along opposite walls. They began to play Pig in the Middle. The old boys ran from wall to wall while the new boys tried to catch them: when one was seized and the mystic words said - one, two, three, and a pig for me - he became a prisoner and, turning sides, helped to catch those who were still free. Philip saw a boy running past and tried to catch him, but his limp gave him no chance; and the runners, taking their opportunity, made straight for the ground he covered. Then one of them had the brilliant idea of imitating Philip's clumsy run. Other boys saw it and began to laugh; then they all copied the first; and they ran round Philip, limping grotesquely, screaming in their treble voices with shrill laughter. They lost their heads with the delight of their new amusement, and choked with helpless merriment. One of them tripped Philip up and he fell, heavily as he always fell, and cut his knee. They laughed all the louder when he got up. A boy pushed him from behind, and he would have fallen again if another had not caught him. The game was forgotten in the entertainment of Philip's deformity. One of them invented an odd, rolling limp that struck the rest as supremely ridiculous, and several of the boys lay down on the ground and rolled about in laughter: Philip
