Of the thousands of different kinds of animals that exist in the world man has learned to make friends with an enormous number. Some are pets， and offer him companionship; some give protection， and some do hard work which man cannot do for himself. Dogs， which serve man in all three capacities， are found in various breeds in all countries of the world. The Husky can live in the cold polar regions， and the Saluki is at home in the hottest parts of Central Africa. The inhabitants of certain countries are dependent for their very lives on the camel. In the West Indies the little donkey， strong and sure-footed， carrying heavy loads even in mountainous places， is a familiar sight.
Trained and tamed for many generations， domestic animals are not accustomed to roaming （到处走动） in search of food and shelter. They look to their masters to provide for their needs，and as long as these are supplied， they are content to do what their masters require.
All domestic animals need proper food. It must be suitable for them， sufficient in quantity，fresh and clean. Some people feed a pet dog or cat on odds and ends of table scraps， and then wonder why the animal seems listless（倦怠的） and dull. The quantity of food depends on the size of the animal and the amount of exercise it takes. Overfeeding is as bad as underfeeding. Containers for food and water must be washed regularly if the animal is to maintain good health.
Even well cared for animals may sometimes fall ill. If this happens， the wise master seeks the best advice he can get. All sorts of medicines and treatments are available for sick animals，and in some countries organizations exist to provide them free or at a cheap price. Useful，friendly， hardworking animals deserve to have some time， money and attention spent on their health.
1. What main idea does the author want to convey in the first paragraph？
A） There exists thousands of species of animals in the world.
B） Man came to establish a close relationship with a number of animals.
C） In some regions a donkey seems to be a very useful beast.
D） An animal will be useless unless domesticated.
2. When an animal is underfed， it will probably ____.
A） refuse to obey its master
B） immediately fall ill
C） require its master to offer some food
D） seek for food on its own
3. Which of the following is NOT true of dogs according to the passage？
A） They can act as friends， guards， and servants to man.
B） They have great adaptation for the environment.
C） There live a great variety of breeds of dogs on the globe.
D） The Husky and the Saluki are the strongest breed ever known in the world.
4. To keep a domestic animal physically fit， its owner is advised ____.
A） not to hesitate to spend enormous amount of money on it
B） to pay attention to its proper feeding
C） not to allow it to take excessive amounts of exercise
D） to join some sort of pet-keeping organizations
5. Which of the following would be best TITLE for this passage？
A） Domesticated Animals - Man’s Best Friend
B） Proper Diet - the Road to Health
C） The Advantages of Raising Domestic Animals
D） Some Tips on Pet-keeping
答案：
1.B）Man came to establish a close relationship with a number of animals. 黑体部分为第一段两个要点，A只包含了一个要点，C只提到了一头驴。。。D则完全与第一段无关。这道选错了要面壁哦。
2.A）refuse to obey its master对应原文Some people feed a pet dog or cat on odds and ends of table scraps（即题干中的When an animal is underfed，所以要在这句话中找答案～）， and then wonder why the animal seems listless（倦怠的） and dull. 由于答案比较隐晦，先保留A， B（直接得病）、C（要求食物）和D（自己觅食）均未从此句中得到丝毫体现，所以A为最接近答案。因为我
家养过狗，所以比较清楚， refuse to obey its master的一个表现就是listless and dull，简单的说，就是你逗它它没反应。。。
3.D）The Husky and the Saluki are the strongest breed ever known in the world完全无法对应原文。。。A）They can act as friends， guards， and servants to man对应原文Dogs， which serve man in all three capacities; B）They have great adaptation for the environment对应原文Husky 存在于两极和Saluki存在于非洲的叙述，两极和非洲都能适应，说明它们有很强的适应环境的能力; C）There live a great variety of breeds of dogs on the globe对应原文的are found in various breeds in all countries of the world.
4.B）to pay attention to its proper feeding对应原文All domestic animals need proper food. 整个第3段都是围绕着how to keep a domestic animal physically fit展开的。
5.A）Domesticated Animals - Man’s Best Friend为最合适答案，本文正是充满感情地围绕着这个话题展开。虽然文章对驯养家养动物提出了很多宝贵建议，但B选项没说是给人Proper Diet还是给狗Proper Diet; C选项是饲养家养动物的好处，也不对; D选项是喂养宠物的建议，但只有第三、四段包含了建议的内容，不全面。关于这一点，如果不能理解，请参考上一期关于空调（air conditioning）的阅读的最后一题的答案详解，这种类型的阅读理解的最后一道题往往要综合全文篇幅来看，看作者总体说了什么，而非作者着重说了什么。呵呵，大概是这样吧。
在成千上万种现存于世的动物中，人类已学会与许多物种交朋友。这些动物中有的成为人的宠物，与他作伴；有的起保护作用；有的做一些人们自己做不了伙伴关系的重活。北美洲爱斯基摩的厚毛狗考试大可以生活在寒冷的极地地带，萨卢基狗生活在中非最炎热的地区。某些国家居民的生计依靠骆驼。在西印度群岛，脚步稳健的小驴，在山上驮载重物的景象也屡见不鲜。
经过许多代的驯养之后，家畜已不习惯在野外四处寻觅食物和寻找栖身之处。它们要靠主人提供生存必需品，只要需求得以满足，它们乐意为主人效力。
所有的家畜都需要合适的食物。食物必须适合它们的需要，此外还要数量充足，新鲜干净。有些人用饭桌上剩下的残羹冷炙喂养小猫小狗，之后搞不懂为什么这些动物变得好像有点无精打采、缺乏灵气。喂食的多少取决于动物的大小和它的运动量。喂得过多和喂得过少一样有害。要想动物健壮，食物和饮水的容器必须经常清理干净。
即使是精心照料的动物有时也会生病。如果发生这种情况，精明的主人会竭力寻求最佳建议。为生病的动物提供的各种药物和治疗到处都可以得到，有些国家还成立了组织为生病动物提供廉价或无偿的药物和治疗。对有用的、友善的和拼命干活的动物，主人理应为其健康投入一些时间、金钱并给予关心照顾。

3 大学英语四级阅读理解试题及答案（四） 十六 Trees should only be pruned when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and , fortunately,the number of such reasons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away of obergrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way. First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size. The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut diseaed or dead wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the centre and so preventing the free movement of air. One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease, but itis a wound that will heal. Often there is a race between the healing and the desease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce which has been pruned smooth and clean, for healing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hurs and then paint it with one of the substances available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is usually without interference from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts yu make will bleed. If this does happen,it is, of course,impossible to paint them properly. 1.Pruning should be done to ______. a.make the tree grow taller
1. When I was growing up, the whole world was Jewish. The heroes were Jewish and the villains were Jewish. The landlord, the doctor, the grocer, your best friend, the village idiot, and the neighborhood bully: all Jewish. We were working class and immigrants as well, but that just come with the territory. Essentially we were Jews on the streets of New York. We learned to be kind, cruel, and smart and feeling in a mixture of language and gesture that was part street slang, part grade-school English, part kitchen Yiddish. One Sunday evening when I was eight years old my parents and I were riding in the back seat of my rich uncle's car. We had been out for a ride and now we were back in the Bronx, headed for home. Suddenly, another car sideswiped us. My mother and aunt shrieked. My uncle swore softly. My father, in whose lap I was sitting, said out the window at the speeding car, “That's all right. Nothing but a few Jews in here.” In an instant I knew everything. I knew there was a world beyond our streets, and in that world my father was a humiliated man, without power or standing. When I was sixteen a girl in the next building had her nose straightened; we all went together to see Selma Shapiro lying in state, wrapped in bandages from which would emerge a person fit for life beyond the block. Three buildings away a boy went downtown for a job, and on his application he wrote “Anold Brown”instead of “Anold Braunowiitz.”The news swept through the neighborhood like a wild fire. A name change? What was happening here? It was awful; it was wonderful. It was frightening; it was delicious. Whatever it was, it wasn't standstill.Thing felt lively and active. Self-confidence was on the rise, passivity on the wane. We were going to experience challenges. That's what it meant to be in the new world. For the first time we could imagine ourselves out there. But whom exactly do I mean when I say we? I mean Arinie, not Selma. I mean my brother, not me. I mean the boys, not the girls. My mother stood behind me, pushing me forward. “The girls goes to college, too,” she said. And I did. But my going to college would not mean the same thing as my brother's going to college, and we all knew it. For my brother, college meant going from the Bronx to Manhattan. But for me? From the time I was fourteen I yearned to get out of the Bronx, but get out into what? I did not actually imagine myself a working person alo ne in Manhattan and nobody else did either. What I did imagine was that I would marry, and that the man I married would get me downtown. He would break the perils of class and race, and some how I'd be there alongside him. 1.In the passage, we can find the author was____.
Passage1 Reading leadership literature, you’d sometimes think that everyone has the potential to be an effective leader. 读领导文学，你有时会认为每个人都有可能成为一个有效的领导者。 I don’t believe that to be true. In fact, I see way fewer truly effective leaders than I see people stuck in positions of leadership who arc sadly incompetent and seriously misguided about their own abilities. 我不相信这是真的。事实上，我认为真正有效的领导者的方式比我看到的人都陷在领导的职位上，遗憾的是他们自己的能力不称职，严重误导了他们。 Part of the reason this happens is a lack of honest self-assessment by those who aspire to（追求）leadership in the first place. 对产生这种现象的原因一部分是由那些渴望缺乏诚实的自我评估（追求）放在首位的领导 We've all met the type of individual who simply must take charge. Whether it's a decision-making session, a basketball game, or a family outing, they can't help grabbing the lead dog position and clinging on to it for dear life. They believe they're natural born leaders. 我们都遇到了个人的类型，他们必须负责。无论是决策会议，篮球比赛，还是家庭外出，他们都不能不抓住领导的狗的地位，并紧紧抓住它，因为亲爱的生命。他们相信他们是天生的领袖。 Truth is, they're nothing of the sort. True leaders don't assume that it's their divine（神圣的）right to take charge every time two or more people get together. Quite the opposite. A great leader will assess each situation on its merits, and will only take charge when their position, the situation, and/or the needs of the moment demand it. 事实是，他们没有什么样的。真正的领导者不认为这是他们的神圣（神圣的）负责每次两个或两个以上的人在一起吧。恰恰相反。一个伟大的领导者会对每一个情况进行评估，并在他们的位置、情况和/或需要的情况下，只会负责。 Many business executives confuse leadership with action. They believe that constant motion somehow generates leadership as a byproduct. Faced with any situation that can’t be solved by the sheer force of activity, they generate a dust cloud of impatience. Their one leadership tool is

大学英语四级阅读理解（1）We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把......按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning. In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyse and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher. Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every
As the pace of life continues to increase ,we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through lift,being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body. Stress is an natural part of everyday lift and there is no way to avoid it. In fact ,it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be .A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation adn give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health. The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress,and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress,in whatever form,we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "fight" or "flight" and in more primitive days the choice made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme,but however little the stress,it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long,through continued exposure to stress,that health becomes endangered.Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress.Since we cannot remove stress from our lives(it would be unwise to do so even if we could),we need to find ways to deal with it. 1.People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_____. a.they do not know how to enjoy themselves b.they do not believe that relaxation is important for health c.they are travelling fast all the time d.they are becoming busier with their work 2.According to the writer ,the most important character for a good manager is his ________. a.not fearing stress b.knowing the art of relaxation c.high sense of responsibility d.having control over performance 3.Which of the follwing statements is ture? a.We can find some ways to avoid stress b.Stress is always harmful to people
大学英语四级阅读理解试题 Many people believe the glare from snow causes snowblindnenss. Yet, dark glasses or not , they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes,and even snowblindness,when exposed to several hours of "snow light" . The United States Army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snowblindness in troops in a snow- covered , a man's eyes frequently find nothing to foucs on in a broad expanse of barren snow-covered terrain. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of tsomething to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never sotp searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature offsets this irritation by producing more and fluid which covers the eyeball. The fluid coversthe eyeball in increasing quantity until vision blurs, then is obsured,and the result is total, even though temporary,snowblindness. Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts ahead of a main body of troops are
