12月大学英语四级考试模拟题(2) Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.A growing world population and the discoveries of science may alter this pattern of distribution in the future. As men slowly learn to master diseases, control floods, prevent famines, and stop wars, fewer people die every year; and in consequence the population of the world is steadily increasing. In 1925 there were about 2,000 million people in the world; by the end of the century there may well be over 4,000 million.When numbers rise the extra mouths must be fed. New lands must be brought under cultivation, or land already farmed made to yield larger crops. In some areas the accessible land is so intensively cultivated that it will be difficult to make it provide more food. In some areas the population is so dense that the land is parceled out in units too tiny to allow for much improvement in farming methods. Were a large part of this farming population drawn off into industrial occupations, the land might be farmed much more productively by modern methods.There is now a race for science, technology, and industry to keep the output of food rising faster than the number of people to be fed. New strains of crops are being developed which will thrive in unfavorable climates: there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia and North America; irrigation and dry-farming methods bring arid lands under the plough, dams hold back the waters of great rivers to ensure water for the fields in all seasons and to provide electric power for new industries; industrial chemistry provides fertilizers to suit particular soils; aeroplanes spray crops to destroy locusts and many plant diseases. Every year some new means is devised to increase or to protect the food of the world.31. The author says that the world population is growing because_____.A) there are many rich valleys and fertile plainsB) the pattern of distribution is being alteredC) people are living longerD) new land is being brought under cultivation32. The author says that in densely populated areas the land mightbe more productively farmed if _____.A) the plots were subdividedB) a large part of the people moved to a different part of the countryC) industrial methods were used in farmingD) the units of land were made much larger33. We are told that there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle. This has been made possible by _____.A) producing new strains of cropsB) irrigation and dry-farming methodsC) providing fertilizersD) destroying pests and disease34. Which of these words is nearest in meaning to the word "strains"?A) types B) sizesC) seeds D) harvests35. The author's main purpose is to _____.A) argue for a belief B) describe a phenomenonC) entertain D) propose a conclusionPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.For some time past it has been widely accepted that babies-and other creatures-learn to do things because certain acts lead to "rewards"; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to bewidely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages,had to be directly related to such basic physiological(生理的) "drives" as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got foodor drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to "reward" the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed thata baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still go on making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children's responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement "switched on"a display of lights-and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result, for instance, two left or two right, or even to make as many as three turns to one side.Papousek's light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would "smile and bubble" when the display came on. Papousek concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the worldand bring it under intentional control.36. According to the author, babies learn to do things which .A) are directly related to pleasureB) will meet their physical needsC) will bring them a feeling of successD) will satisfy their curiosity37. Papousek noticed in his studies that a baby .A) would make learned responses when it saw the milkB) would carry out learned movements when it had enough to drinkC) would continue the simple movements without being given milkD) would turn its head to right or left when it had enough to drink38. In Papousek's experiment babies make learned movements of the head in order to .A) have the lights turned onB) be rewarded with milkC) please their parentsD) be praised39. The babies would "smile and bubble" at the lights because .A) the lights were directly related to some basic "drives"B) the sight of the lights was interestingC) they need not turn back to watch the lightsD) they succeeded in "switching on" the lights40. According to Papousek, the pleasure babies get in achieving something is a reflection of .A) a basic human desire to understand and control the worldB) the satisfaction of certain physiological needsC) their strong desire to solve complex problemsD) a fundamental human urge to display their learned skillsPart III Vocabulary (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

12月大学英语四级考试模拟试卷2015年12月大学英语四级考试模拟试卷Part I Reading Comprehension (50)Directions: In this section, there are 5 passages followed by five questions, each with four suggested answers marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the most appropriate answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passageSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles (困难). People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off (挡开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meetour social needs while at the same time distracting (转移…注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support—financial aid,material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.1. Interpersonal relationships are important because ________.A) they are indispensable to people’s social well-beingB) they awaken people’s desire to exchange resourcesC) they help people to cope with life in the information eraD) they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc2. Research shows that people’s physical and mental health ________.A) relies on the social welfare systems which support themB) has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersC) depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesD) is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “cushions” (Line 1, Para. 2)?A) Adds up to. B) Does away with. C) Lessens the effect of.D) Lays the foundation for.4. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of ________.A) instrumental supportB) informational supportC) social companionshipD) the strengthening of self-respect5. Social companionship is beneficial in that ________.A) it helps strengthen our ties with relativesB) it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakesC) it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyableD) it draws our attention away from our worries and troublesPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passageThere seems never to have been a civilization without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do. In the ancient world, as is today, most boys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with another. In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world.What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained are same. The changes have been mostly in terms of craftsmanship, mechanics, and technology. It is the universality of toys with regard to their development in all parts of the world and their persistence to the present that is amazing. In Egypt, the Americas, China, Japan and among the Arctic (北极的) peoples, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Variations depended on local customs and ways of life because toys imitate their surroundings. Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to technological leaps that characterize inventions for adult use. The progress from thewheel to the oxcart to the automobile is a direct line of ascent (进步). The progress from a rattle (拨浪鼓) used by a baby in 3000 BC to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations of available materials.。

第12届英语四六级模拟考试答案第12届英语四六级模拟考试答案四级Part 1 WritingAs is shown by the percentage in the chart, college students' book list has changed a lot. The number of the students reading the books about philosophy and society has been on the diminish from 1991 to 2011. On the contrary, more and more students would like to choose the books about foreign language and computer science. From the statistical data in the chart, it goes without saying that students pay more attention on language and science than before.There are at least two reasons accounting for this phenomenon. On the one hand, with the development of the society, science plays a more important role. As a student, most of us are willing to contribute to science to make our country stronger. On the other hand, the phenomenon that more students would rather choose foreign language than novels is due to the fact that communicating with others becomes more convenient. And the ability of communication influences one's work and life in some way. Maybe there are some other reasons, But it is generally believed that the reasons mentioned above are commonly convincing.As for me, I major in medical science. So most of the books I buy are about medical science. And I'm also interested in literature and music, I buy some books about these as usual. I hold the point of view that students should try to develop ourselves in all field.1~~5 BCADD 6~~10 BACDC 11~~15 ABBCA 16~~20DADDC21~~25 BACAB26._______melts__________ 31.____essential__________________27.______at risk___________ 32.____feed on_________________28.______survive__________ 33.___wipe out_________________29.______relatives_________ 34.______regulate________________30.______environmentally___ 35._____predict_________________36~~45 L C I A K E O F J G46~~55 B F D H A I C I H G56~~60 ABCDA 61~~65 DABCBPart IV TranslationChinese opera is a combination of Chinese drama and musical theatre, which roots back as far as the third century. There are numerous regional branches of Chinese Opera, of which the Beijing Opera (Jingju) is one of the most notable. The Beijing Opera arose in the late 18th century and became fully developed and recognized by the mid-19th century. It was extremely popular in the Qing Dynasty court and has been regarded as one of the cultural treasures of China. Masks are used in Chinese opera. Each color of the mask has a different meaning, portraying a character’s role and illustrating their emotional state and general character.。

XX年12月英语四级阅读模拟练习题及答案xx年12月英语四级阅读模拟练习题及答案The future population will be older than today, andthis in turn will change the patterns of social demands. However, Mexico will still be far from the "aging societies" that will most likely prevail (占优势 ) in the industrialized countries. In less than 25 years, the country will have to add almost as much infrastructure as it has already built up to now, simply to maintain services and production at the current levels. This will be a tremendous challenge, although a similar one was faced suessfully in the recent past, when availableinfrastructure was doubled in two decades or so. It is no wonder that much has been said about the need to reduce or preferably halt Mexico's population control which is taken for granted as both good and necessary. It has also gained supporters in the developing world, and Mexico is no exception. But the arguments about population are plicated, as the following discussion illustrates.Even if Mexico's population reaches 125 million by the year xx, its population density is still smaller than the 1985 population density of some 50 countries. By international standards Mexico will still not be overpopulated by the year xx. If wealth is generated by people, the more individuals there are, the greater thewealth that potentially could be generated. Why should Mexico control its population at density levels below those of the richer countries if more population represents the possibility of generating more wealth?On the other hand, it is often pointed out that once sustainability(支撑力) limits are near or are reached, there are decreasing productivity gains (or,perhaps more aurately, increasing productive losses) , and people bee a cost rather than an asset. If we assume that there are sustainability limits and that we are close to reaching these limits at a world level, then it is appropriate to check population growth.21. Aording to the passage, the population argument is focused on.A. whether more people are a property or a costB. whether Mexico should control its population growth or notC. whether the density of population in Mexico is large or smallD. what the standard international sustainability limit is22. Which of the following is TRUE aording to the first paragraph?A. Mexico has stepped into an aging society.B. It is not necessary for Mexico to control its population.C. Mexico population is younger than that of developed countries.D. It is not necessary for Mexico to develop its infrastructure.23. By "infrastructure"(Para. 2) the author means.A. buildingsB. the basic framework of a country, such as schools, services, etc.C. social demandsD. services and production24. It may be inferred from the 3rd paragraph that.A. it isn't necessary for Mexico to control its population growthB. population is likely to grow at a slower pace than in the pastC. the more people there are, the greater the wealth people could generateD. Mexico should control its population growth because she belongs to the developing countries25. To check population growth is necessary when.A. there are decreasing productivity gainsB. there are increasing productivity lossesC. we are close to reaching the sustainability limits at a world levelD. people bee a cost21. B 22. C 23. B 24. A 25. C。
