2007年专四真题及答案

TEXT AIf you like the idea of staying with a family, living in house (guest house 1. 小旅馆2. （大房子旁供客人居住的）客房) might be the answer.[81]Good landladies (a woman from whom you rent a room, a house, etc. 女房东；女地主; a woman who owns or manages a pub or a guest house （酒吧或招待所的）女店主，老板娘)---those who are superb cooks and launderers (洗衣工. thunderer 怒喝的人大声说话的人. blunderer 犯大错的人), are figures as popular in fiction as the bad ones who terrorize（to frighten and threaten people so that they will not oppose something or will do as they are told 恐吓；恫吓；威胁）their guest and overcharge （to make somebody pay too much for something 多收（某人的）钱）them at the slightest opportunity. The truth is probably somewhere between the two extremes. If you are lucky, the food will be adequate, some of your laundry may be done for you and you will have a reasonable amount of comfort and companionship. For the less fortune, house rules may restrict the freedom to invite friends to visit, and shared cooking and bathroom facilities can be frustrating and row-provoking (/raʊ/ a serious disagreement between people, organizations, etc. about something 严重分歧；纠纷; a noisy argument between two or more people 吵架；争吵) if tidy and untidy guest (a person who is staying at a hotel, etc. 旅客；房客) are living under the same roof. //[82]The same disadvantages can apply to flat sharing, with the added difficulties that arise from deciding who pays for what, and in what proportion. One person may spend hours on the phone, while another rarely makes calls. If you want privacy with guest, how do you persuade the others to go out; how do you persuade them to leave you in peace, especially if you are student and want to study?[83]Conversely, flat sharing can be very cheap, there will alwaysbe someone to talk to and go out with, and the chores (A routine task, esp. a household one家务活), in theory, can be shared.//81.According to the passage, landladies are ________ually strict.B.always mean.C.adequately competent.D.very popular with their guest.解析：此题答案为：C。

For questions 1-7, choose thebest answer from the four choices marked A), B),C) and D). For questions8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Univeraities Branch OutAs never before in their long story, universities have become instruments of nationalcompetition as well as instruments of peace. They are the place of the scientific discoveries thatmove economies forward, and the primary means of educating the talent required to obtain andmaintain competitive advantages. But at the same time, the opening of national borders to the flowof goods, services, information and especially people has made universities a powerful force forglobal integration, mutual understanding and geopolitical stability.In response to the same forces that have driven the world economy, universities have becomeMore self-consciousy global: seeking students from around the world who represent the entirerange of cultures and values, sending their own students abroad to prepare them for global careers,offering courses of study that address the challenges of an interconnected world and collaborative（合作的）research programs to advance science for the benefit of all humanity. Of the forces shaping higher education none is more sweeping than the movement across borders. Over the past three decades the number of students leaving home each year to study abroad has grown at an annual rate of 3.0 percent, from 8000,000 in 1975 to 2.5 million in 2994. Most travel from one developed nation to another, but the flow from developing to developed countries id growing rapidly. The reverse flow, from developed to developing countries, is on the rise, too. Today foreign students earn 30 percent of the doctoral degrees awarded in the United States and 38 percent of those in the United Kingdom. And the number crossing borders for undergraduate study is growing as well, to 8 percent of the undergraduates at America’s best institutions and 10 percent of all undergraduates in the U.K. In the United States, 20 percent of the newly hired professors in science and engineering are foreign-born, and in China many newly hired faculty hired faculty members at the top research universities received their graduate education abroad.Universities are also encouraging students to spend some of their undergraduate years in another country. In Europe, more than 140,000 students participate in the Erasmus program each year, taking courses for credit in one of 2, 2000 participating institutions across the continent. And in the United States, institutions are helping place students in summer internships（实习）abroad to prepare them for global careers. Yale and Harvard have led the way, offering every undergraduate at least one international study or internship opportunity and providing the financial resources to make it possible.Globalization is also reshaping the way research is done. One new trend involves sourcing portions of a research program to another country. Yale professor and Howard Hughes Medical Shanghai’s Fudan University, in collaboration with faculty colleagues from both schools. The Shanghai center has 95 employees and graduate students working in a 4,300-square-meter laboratory seminars with scientists from both campuses. The arrangement benefits both countries;Xu’s Yale lab is more productive, thanks to the lower costs of conducing from a word-class scientist and his U.S. team.As a result of its strength in science, the United States has consistently led of the world in the world in the commercialization of major new technologies, from the mainframe computer and integrated circuit of the 1960s to the internet infrastructure(基础设施)and applications software ofthe 1990s.The link between university-based science and industrial application is often indirect but sometimes highly visible: Silicon Valley was intentionally created by Stanford University, andRoute 128 outside Boston has long housed companies spun off from MIT and Harvard. Around the world ,governments have encouraged copying of his model, perhaps most successfully in Cambridge, England, where Microsoft and scores of other leading software and biotechnology companies have set up shop around the university.For all its success, the United States remains deeply hesitant about sustaining the research university model. Most politician recognize the link between investment in science and nationalEconomic strength, but support for research funding has been unsteady. The budget of the National Institutes of Health doubled between 1998 and 2003,but has risen more slowly than inflations since then. Support for the physical sciences and engineering barely kept pace with inflation during that same period. The attempt to make up lost ground is welcome, but the nation would be better served by steady, predictable increases in science funding at the rate of long-term GDP growth, which is on the order of inflation plus 3 percent per year.American politicians have great difficulty recognizing that admitting more foreign students can greatly promote the national interest by increasing international understanding. Adjusted for inflation, public funding for international exchanges and foreign-language study is well below the levels of 40 years ago. In the wake of September 11,changes in the visa process caused a dramatic decline in the number of foreign students seeking admission to U.S. Universities, and a corresponding surge in enrollments in Australia, Singapore and the U .K. Objections from Americans university and business leaders led to improvements in the process and a reversal of the decline ,but the United States is still seen bymany as unwelcoming to international students.Most Americans recognize that universities contribute to the nation’swell-being through their scientific research, but many fear that foreign studentsthreaten American competitiveness by taking their knowledge and skills back home.They fail to grasp that welcoming foreign students and like immigrants throughouthistory-strength the nation; and second, foreign students who study in the UnitedStates become ambassadors for many of its most cherished(珍视) values when theyreturn home. Or at least they understand them better. In America as elsewhere, few Instruments of foreign policy are as effective in promoting peace and stability aswelcoming international university students.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

Pianist and composer Felix Mendelssohn has composed a fair amount of music by the time he was eleven. His forth opera was produced in Berlin, when he was only eighteen. John Stewart Mill, the nineteenth century British philosopher, read Greek at three and had worked his way through elementary geometry and a large body of literature and history by the time he was twelve. Even though there has been a fascination with prodigies for centuries, there has been little serious study of them until recently. Some surprising common characteristics have been identified. The vast majority are boys. They are usually first born children of middle-class families. Often their parents are past the usual childbearing age. Many are born by operation rather than by natural child birth. They often have parents who seem to be trying to realize their own ambitions through their amazing children. And prodigies usually have a strange sense of humor. Although a child may be born with outstanding genetic potential, this potential will not necessarily develop. “Just having the gene is not enough.” says Harvard University psychologist Howard Gardener. “Something in the environment must nourish the potential.”And although many prodigies enjoy the satisfaction of the extraordinary achievement, public praise, and material wealth, even the most successful sometimes question the value of their lives and the accomplishment. “I have a longing which grows stronger as I get older.” confesses the famous American concert pianist Eugene Eastman, “to be ordinary.”11．What was John Stuart Mill?A．A historian.B．A composer.C．A philosopher.D．A mathematician.正确答案：C12．What has been found about children of unusual talent?A．Many of them are from middle-class families.B．There are more girls than boys among them.C．They are mostly born by natural childbirth.D．Their parents are usually ambitious and humorous.正确答案：A13．What can be inferred from the talk?A．Material wealth goes hand in hand with mental emptiness.B．Environment plays a decisive role in the development of prodigies.C．Success has not always brought happiness to prodigies.D．Public praise will help prodigies to find the value of their lives.正确答案：B听力原文：M: You experimented with a lot of musical styles. What’s next?W: It’s hard to say where I’m going next, because my next record isn’t finished.M: You used to go to acting classes before you got into music. Did you ever consider becoming an actress?W: That’s what I wanted to do initially. I left school and joined a traveling theater company. We didn’t have money for hotels. So we used to camp in parks. It was brilliant. Then I met William. He liked my voice and decided I should be a singer. It was queer because singing was something I never had in mind.M: Is it true that the best time of a woman’s life is in her thirties?W: Well. Someone’s been telling me that it really starts at forty. She is a wonderful woman. And she says the 30s are just as hard as the 20s, hut in a different way. They are just confusing. But when you get to forty, it’ s just extraordinary. Apparently, the whole world opens up.M: What would you like to achieve before you’re... say.., sixty?W: I’d love to learn how to play the violin but not before I’m sixty. I’d like to do it in the next year or so. One of the first instruments I learned was the drums. And I am quite good at that coordination in a strange way.14．When did Beth Orton begin singing?A．After she met William.B．Before she went to acting classes.C．After she dropped out of school.D．Before she joined a traveling group.正确答案：A15．When is the best time of a woman’s life, as Beth Orton was told?A．In her 60s.B．In her 40s.C．In her 30s.D．In her 20s.正确答案：B16．What does Beth Orton want to do in the next year or so?A．Improve her skills in playing the drums.B．Learn how to play the violin.C．Try some strange musical instruments.D．Train herself in coordination.正确答案：B听力原文：M: The prevailing attitude about premarital contracting is that it spoils the whole concept of marriage, love, and trust. How do you counter that? F: First of all, most of us hear about premarital contracting when someone rich and famous gets divorced and about all the battles they are going through. I know when my husband and I decided that we wanted to have a premarital contract, my son said “Why you guys doing that? Don’t you trust each other?” So it’s not surprising that people’s initial reaction is a negative one. But in fact, premarital contracting is a way that we can learn more about each other, make each other feel more comfortable about issues that are of concerns, and certainly clarify money concerns. This way, we can talk about them, decide together how we want our marriage to work, and if necessary, and only if necessary, we put it in a premarital contract, a legal document. M: Each year, there is one divorce for every two marriages. And a substantial portion of those who have divorced remarry. Is the notion of the premarital contract simply for those who are entering second marriages, or is it also something for the people getting married for the first time? W: Premarital contracting is a communication process.I think all of us, whatever age we are, whatever financial status we have, we have things to talk about. And if we avoid doing that and wait until there are problems, it’s almost too late. I think that no matter what age, whether we’ve been married once or not, whether we have stepchildren, whether we have assets, it’s important to communicate and consider a legal document.17．How do people see premarital contracting in general?A．It is unfeasible and unnecessary.B．It has no effect on true love.C．It is only effective for someone rich and famous.D．It suggests distrust between the two partners.正确答案：D18．What does the woman think of premarital contracting?A．It helps a couple know more about each other.B．It makes a couple’s relationship more stable.C．It helps to develop genuine love in a couple.D．It makes a couple feel more comfortable with each other.正确答案：A19．What is the divorce rate, according to the interviewer?A．50%.B．30%.C．20%.D．10%.正确答案：A20．What is essential in premarital contracting, according to the woman?A．Financial status.B．Legal documents.C．Attitude to marriage.D．Communication.正确答案：DSection II Use of English (15 minutes)Directions: Read the following text.

A recent General Accounting Office report estimates that as many as 750,000 Americans are victims of identity theft every year. And that number may be low, as many people choose not to report the crime even if they know they have been victimized.Identity theft is ―an absolute epidemic,‖ states Robert Ellis Smith, a respected author and advocate of privacy. ―It’s certainly picked up in the last four or five years. It’s worldwide. It affects everybody, and ther e’s very little you can do to prevent it and, worst of all, you can’t detect it until it’s probably too late.‖Unlike your fingerprints, which are unique to you and cannot be given to someone else for their use, you personal data, especially your social security number, your bank account or credit card number, your telephone calling card number, and other valuable identifying data, can be used, if they fall into the wrong hands, to personally profit at your expense. In the United States and Canada, for example, many people have reported that unauthorized persons have taken funds out of their bank or financial accounts, or, in the worst cases, taken over their identities altogether, running up vast debts and committing crimes while using the victims’names. In many cases, a victim’s losses may included not only out-of-pocket financial losses, but substantial additional financial costs associated with trying to restore his reputation in the community and correcting erroneous information for which the criminal is responsible.According to the FBI, identity theft is the number one fraud committed on the Internet. So how do job seekers protect themselves while continuing to circulate their resumes online? The key to a successful online job search is learning to manager the risks. Here are some tips for staying safe while conducting a job search on the Internet.1. Check for a privacy policy.If you are considering posting your resume online, make sure the job search site your are considering has a privacy policy, like . The policy should spell out how your information will be used, stored and whether or not it will be shared. Y ou may want to think twice about posting your resume on a site that automatically shares your information with others. Y ou could be opening yourself up to unwanted calls from solicitors (推销员).When reviewing the site’s privacy policy, you’ll be able to delete your resume just as easily as you posted it. Y ou won’t necessarily want your resume to remain out there on the Internet once you land a job. Remember, the longer your resume remains posted on a job board, the more exposure, both positive and not-so-positive, it will receive.2. Take advantage of site features.Lawful job search sites offer levels of privacy protection. Before posting your resume, carefully consider your job search objective and the level of risk you are willing to assume., for example, offers three levels of privacy from which job seekers can choose. The first is standard posting. This option gives job seekers who post their resumes the most visibility to the broadest employer audience possible.The second is anonymous (匿名的) posting. This allows job seekers the same visibility as those in the standard posting category without any of their contact information being displayed. Job seekers who wish to remain anonymous but want to share some other information may choose which pieces of contact information to display.The third is private posting. This option allows a job seeker to post a resume without having it searched by employers. Private posting allows job seekers to quickly and easily apply for jobs that appear on without retyping their information.3. Safeguard your identity.Career experts say that one of the ways job seekers can stay safe while using the Internet to searchout jobs is to conceal their identities. Replace your name on your resume with a generic(泛指的) identifier, such as ―Intranet Developer Candidate,‖ or ―Experienced Marketing Representative.‖Y ou should also consider eliminating the name and location of your current employer. Depending on your title, it may not be all that difficult to determine who you are once the name of your company is provided. Use a general description of the company such as ―Major auto manufacturer,‖or ―International packaged goods supplier.‖If your job title is unique, consider using the generic equivalent instead of the exact title assigned by your employer.4. Establish and email address for your search.Another way to protect your privacy while seeking employment o nline is to open up an email account specifically for your online job search. This will safeguard your existing email box in the event someone you don’t know gets hold of your email address and shares it with others.Using an email address specifically for you job search also eliminates the possibility that you will receive unwelcome emails in your primary mailbox. When naming your new email address, be sure that it doesn’t contain references to your name or other information that will give away your identity. The best solution is an email address that is relevant to the job you are seeking such as salesmgr2004@.5. Protect your reference.If your resume contains a section with the names and contact information of your references, take it out. There’s no sense in safeguarding your information while sharing private contact information of your references.6. Keep confidential (机密的) information confidential.Do not, under any circumstances, share your social security, driver’s license, and bank account numbers or other personal information, such as race or eye color. Honest employers do not need this information with an initial application. Don’t provide this even if they say they need it in order to conduct a background check. This is one of the oldest tricks in the book – don’t fall for it.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。
