To this end, we walk the dog, play golf, go fishing, sit in the garden, drink outside rather than inside the pub, have a picnic, live in the suburbs, go to the seaside, buy a weekend place in the country. The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk. And when joggers (慢跑者) jog, they don’t run the streets. Every one of them instinctively heads to the park or the river. It is my profound belief that not only do we all need nature, but we all seek nature, whether we know we are doing so or not.But despite this, our children are growing up nature-deprived (丧失). I spent my boyhood climbing trees on Streatham Common, South London. These days, children are robbed of these ancient freedoms, due to problems like crime, traffic, the loss ofthe open spaces and odd new perceptions about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found.The truth is to be found elsewhere. A study in the US: families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD—attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (多动症). Those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.A study in Sweden indicated that kindergarten children who could play in a natural environment had less illness and greater physical ability than children used only to a normal playground. A US study suggested that when a school gave children access to a natural environment, academic levels were raised across the entire school. Another study found that children playdifferently in a natural environment. In playgrounds, children create a hierarchy (等级) based on physical abilities, with the tough ones taking the lead. But when a grassy area was planted with bushes, the children got much more into fantasy play, and the social hierarchy was now based on imagination and creativity.Most bullying (恃强凌弱) is found in schools where there is a tarmac (柏油碎石) playground; the least bullying is in a natural area that the children are encouraged to explore. This reminds me unpleasantly of Sunnyhill School in Streatham, with its harsh tarmac, where I used to hang about in corners fantasising about wildlife.But children are frequently discouraged from involvement with natural spaces, for health and safety reasons, for fear that they might get dirty or that they might cause damage. So, instead, the damage is done tothe children themselves: not to their bodies but to their souls.One of the great problems of modern childhood is ADHD, now increasingly and expensively treated with drugs. Yet one study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children. However, we spend money on drugs rather than on green places.The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature. The increasing emphasis for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years. And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality.In wider and more difficult areas of life, there is evidence to indicate that natural surroundings improve all kinds of things. Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contactwith the natural world.Dr William Bird, researcher from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, states in his study, “A natural environment can reduce violent behaviour because its restorative process helps reduce anger and impulsive behaviour.” Wild places need encouraging for this reason, no matter how small their contribution.We tend to look on nature conservation as some kind of favour that human beings are granting to the natural world. The error here is far too deep: not only do humans need nature for themselves, but the very idea that humanity and the natural world are separable things is profoundly damaging. Human beings are a species of mammals (哺乳动物). For seven million years they lived on the planet as part of nature. Our ancestral selves miss the natural world and long for contact with non-human life. Anyone who has patted a dog, stroked a cat, satunder a tree with a pint of beer, given or received a bunch of flowers or chosen to walk through the park on a nice day, understands that.We need the wild world. It is essential to our well-being, our health, our happiness. Without the wild world we are not more but less civilised. Without other living things around us we are less than human.Five ways to find harmony with the natural worldWalk: Break the rhythm of permanently being under a roof. Get off a stop earlier, make a circuit of the park at lunchtime, walk the child to and from school, get a dog, feel yourself moving in moving air, look, listen, absorb.Sit: Take a moment, every now and then, to be still in an open space. In the garden, anywhere that’s not in the office, anywhere out of the house, away from the routine. Sit under a tree, look at water, feel refreshed,ever so slightly renewed.Drink: The best way to enjoy the natural world is by yourself; the second best way is in company. Take a drink outside with a good person, a good gathering: talk with the sun and the wind with birdsong for background. Learn: Expand your boundaries. Learn five species of bird, five butterflies, five trees, five bird songs. That way, you see and hear more: and your mind responds gratefully to the greater amount of wildness in your life.Travel: The places you always wanted to visit: by the seaside, in the country, in the hills. Take a weekend break, a day-trip, get out there and do it: for the scenery, for the way through the woods, for the birds, for the bees. Go somewhere special and bring specialness home. It lasts forever, after all.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。
作文:Nothing succeeds without a strong willThere is a prevalent joke around young people saying that ‘quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world, and I’ve done it for hundreds of times.’ This seemingly funny statement ironically reflects the fact that the determination of most youngsters is oftentimes started with enthusiasm, but the passion becomes increasingly weaker each day, and then diminishes as if there has been no such thing at all.It is obvious that their failure in ‘quitting smoking’ and decline of determination are all ascribed to their lack of will. Initially, every success involves several stages of setbacks and risks, and we need to summon up our will to conquer them. Moreover, there are enormous temptation in our path of pursuit of success. For instance, when we plan to quit smoking, our roommates may smoke freely in front of us; when we are eager to keep fit, our close friends may invite us to have late night snacks. Under these occasions, only strong will can assist us to resist the temptation, and persist in chasing our goals until we triumphantly realize them.In short, no dream will successfully come true if we do not have strong will. An old famous proverb says that ‘ where there is a will, there is a way’. Let us bear this motton in mind no matter how many thunders and thorns are on our roads ahead, then we will be successful with such precious and powerful spirit.[快速阅读]快速阅读1.

2011年12月英语四级真题word 清晰版-2011年12月大学英语四级真题Part Ⅰ Writing (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essayentitled Nothing Succeeds Without a StrongWill by commenting on the humoroussaying, "Quitting smoking is the easiestthing in the world. I've done it hundreds oftimes." You should write at least 120 wordsbut no more than 180 words.Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong WillWhy Integrity MattersWhat Is Integrity?The key to integrity is consistency- not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each and every day. One who has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical (道德上的) standards even when making life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation.What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse (缺失) of integrity also affects our relationships with others. Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus integrity must be one of our most important goals.Risky BusinessWe are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision, making process has been undermined by stress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in the future.Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn torecognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices. To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who doesn't know the rules a about plagiarism (剽窃) may accidentally use words or ideas without giving proper credit or one who fails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and cite sources as required. But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the misconduct, Ignorance is not a defense."But Everybody Does It"Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts but manage to fool themselves about the risks they're taking by using excuses: "Everyone else does it." "I'm not hurting anyone", or "I really need this grade." Excuses can get very elaborate: "I know I'm look at another's exam, even though I'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not cheating because I’m just checking my answers,not copying." We must be honest about our actions and avoid excuses, if we fool ourselves into believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see the real choice we're making - and that leads to bad decisions.To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if your actions were public and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. If you'd rather hide your actions, that's an indication that you're taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself.Evaluating RisksTo decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future as well as right now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself. Those who take risks they later regret usually focus on immolate benefits and simply haven't considered what might go wrong. The consequences of getting caught are serious and may include a "O" on a test or assignment, an"F" in the class, suspension (暂令停学) or dismissal from school and a ruined reputation. In fact, when you break a role or law, you lose control over your life and give others the power to impose punishment that you have no control over. This is an extremely vulnerable (脆弱的) position. There may be some matters of life and death or highest principle, which might justify such a risk, but there aren't many things that fall in this category.Getting Away with it - Or NotThose who don't get caught pay an even higher price. A cheater doesn't learn from the test, which deprives (剥夺) him her of an education. Cheating undermines confidence and independence: the cheater is a fraud, and knows that without dishonesty, he/she would have failed. Cheating destroys self-respect and integrity, leaving the cheater ashamed, guilty and afraid of getting caught.Worst of all, a cheater who doesn't get caught the first time usually cheats again, not onlybecause he/she is farther behind, but also because it seems "easier." This slippery slope of eroding ethics and bigger risks leads only to disaster. Eventually, the cheater gets caught, and the later he/she gets caught, the worse the consequences.Cheating Hurts Other, TooCheaters often feel invisible, as if their actions "don't count" and don't really hurt anyone. But individual choices have an intense cumulative (累积的) effect. Cheating can spread like a disease. Recent statistics suggest 30%or more of college students cheat. If a class is graded on a curve, cheating hurts others' grades. Even if there is no curve, cheating "poisons" the classroom, and others may feel pressured to join in. ("If I don't cheat I can't compete with those who do") Cheating also has a destructive impact on teachers. The real reward of goof teaching is seeing students learn. But a cheater says. "I'm not interested in what you're trying to teach, all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of theeffect on others." The end result is a destructive attack on the quality of your education. Finally, cheating can hurt the reputation of the university and harm those who worked hard for their degree.Why Integrity MartenIf cheating becomes the norm, then we are in big trouble. We must rely on the honesty and good faith of others, if not, we couldn't put money in the bank, buy food, clothing, or medicine from others, drive across a bridge, get on a plane, go to the dentist--the list is endless. There are many examples of the vast harm that is caused when individuals forget or ignore the effect their dishonesty can have. The savings and loan scandal, the stock market and junk bond swindles, and, of course, Watergate, have undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity of political and economic leaders and society as a whole. Such incidents take a tremendous toll on our nation's economy and our individual well-being. For example, but forthe savings and loan debacle, there might be funds available to reduce the national debt and pay for education.In sum, we all have a common stake in our school, our community, and our society. Our actions do matter. It is essential that we act with integrity in order to build the kind of world in which we want to live.1.

作文:Where There Is a Will There Is a Way1.坚强的意志是成功的重要保证。
2.意志坚定的人才能完成伟大的使命,3.学生也是这样,不刻苦学习,终究不会成为有用之才用。
【参考范文】Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will“Where there is a will,there is way”is an old proverb which almost everyone knows,but not all understand it so well.Actually,it means that if you are really resolved to do something,no matter how difficult it might be,never give up.In fact,strong will is a kind of good quality which successful people should own.A great man is always one who has a firm resolution and an inflexible spirit. One will never succeed all his life without a firm will to get the final victory. As a rule,great tasks are accomplished by men of strong will.For example,Dr.Sun Yatsen,the founder of the Republic of China,set the Chinese people free from the Manchurian rule through a long period of hard struggle.Many of his attempts failed and many of his followers were killed,but he had an inflexible spirit and stuck to his cause.Finally,he made the revolution of1911a success.The same is true of men in all walks of life.It is quite obvious that there is nothing difficult in the world,if you make up your mind to do it,you will certainly accomplish your end.That stands to reason. So as for students like us,we should have a good attitude towards failure.Facing with difficulties and failures,keep heads up and never give up.Besides,we should make full preparation,though strong will help us overcome the difficulties,it is not for person who has no preparation.Part I Writing【标准版】Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong WillNothing runs smoothly in our life.To achieve things successfully,a strong will is essential.Life is like a Marathon.Many people can’t get to the terminal.This is not because they are lack of vitality but because their will of success is not strong enough.To take quitting smoking as an example,some regard it as a piece of cake.They make up their minds to quit it in the morning,but in the evening they feel that the smell of cigarettes is tempting.Their throats are sore,their mouths are thirsty,and their hands are shaking.After the painful mental struggle,they tell themselves that“One cigarette is enough.Just take one,and the next day I will quit it.”By doing this,they surrender to their weak will.In the end,they have quitted smoking“a hundred times”,but in no time they succeed.Just like quitting smoking,nothing succeeds without a strong will.To be successful in one’s life,a strong will means that you know where you go and you will persist on the road you choose.Undoubtedly success belongs to those who overcome their weak will and who hang in there until the last minute.【文章点评】本文属于话题类作文,只看题目“Nothing Succeeds without a strong will”考生会觉得比较抽象,难以下手。

Part Ⅰ Writing (30 minutes)注意:此部分试题在答题卡1上. For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will by commenting on the humorous saying, "Quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I've done it hundreds of times." You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)Why Integrity MattersWhat is Integrity? The key to integrity is consistency--not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each day. One who has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical standards even when making life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation. What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse of integrity also affects our relationships with others. Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals. Risky Business We are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision-making process has been undermined by stress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did, and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in the future. Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices. To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who doesn't know the rules about plagiarism may accidentally use words or ideas without giving proper credit, or one who fails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and cite sources as required. But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the misconduct. Ignorance is not a defense."But Everybody Does It" Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts, but manage to fool themselves about the risks they're taking by using excuses: "Everyone else does it," "I'm not hurting anyone,” or "I really need this grade." Excuses can get very elaborate: "I know I'm looking at another's exam, even though I'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not cheating because I'm just checking my answers, not copying." We must be honest about our actions, and avoid excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions. To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if your actions were public and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. Would you feel proud or ashamed of your actions? If you'd rather hide your actions, that's a good indication that you're taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself.Evaluating Risks To decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future as well as right now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself. Those who take risks they later regret usually focus on immediate benefits ("what's in it for me"), and simply haven't considered what might go wrong. The consequences of getting caught are serious, and may include a "0" on a test or assignment; an "F" in the class; suspension or dismissal from school; transcript notation; and a tarnished reputation. In fact, when you break a rule or law, you lose control over your life, and give others the power to impose punishment: you have no control overwhat that punishment might be. This is an extremely precarious and vulnerable position. There may be some matters of life and death, or highest principle, which might justify such a risk, but there aren't many things that fall in this category.Getting Away With It--Or Not Those who don't get caught pay an even higher price. A cheater doesn't learn from the test, depriving him/herself of an education. Cheating undermines confidence and independence: the cheater is a fraud, and knows that without dishonesty, he/she would have failed. Cheating destroys self-esteem and integrity, leaving the cheater ashamed, guilty, and afraid of getting caught. Worst of all, a cheater who doesn't get caught the first time usually cheats again, not only because he/she is farther behind, but also because it seems "easier." This slippery slope of eroding ethics and bigger risks leads only to disaster. Eventually, the cheater gets caught, and the later he/she gets caught, the worse the consequences. Students have been dismissed from school because they didn't get this simple message: Honesty is the ONLY policy that works.Cheating Hurts Others, Too Cheaters often feel invisible, as if their actions "don't count" and don't really hurt anyone. But individual choices have a profound cumulative effect. Cheating can spread like a disease, and a cheater can encourage others just by being seen from across the room. Recent statistics suggest 30% or more of college students cheat. If a class is graded on a curve, cheating hurts others' grades. Even if there is no curve, cheating "poisons" the classroom, and others may feel pressured to join in. ("If I don't cheat, I can't compete with those who do.") Cheating also has a destructive impact on teachers. The real reward of good teaching is seeing students learn, but a cheater says, "I'm not interested in what you're trying to teach; all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of the effect on others." The end result is a blatant and destructive attack on the quality of your education. Finally, cheating can hurt the reputation of the University, and harm those who worked hard for their degree.Why Integrity Matters If cheating becomes the norm, then we are in big trouble. We must rely on the honesty and good faith of others every day. If not, we couldn't put money in the bank, buy food, clothing, or medicine from others, drive across a bridge, get on a plane, go to the dentist--the list is endless. There are many examples of the vast harm that is caused when individuals forget or ignore the effect their dishonesty can have. The savings and loan scandal, the stock market and junk bond swindles, and, of course, Watergate, have undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity of political and economic leaders and society as a whole. Such incidents take a tremendous toll on our nation's economy and our individual well-being. For example, but for the savings and loan debacle, there might be funds available to reduce the national debt and pay for education. In sum, we all have a common stake in our school, our community, and our society. Our actions do matter. It is essential that we act with integrity in order to build the kind of world in which we want to live.1. A person of integrity not only sets high moral and ethical standards but also _______。

注意:此部分试题在答题卡1上.For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will by commenting on the humorous saying, "Quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I've done it hundreds of times." You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) Why Integrity Matters What is Integrity? The key to integrity is consistency--not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, each day. One who has responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical standards even when making life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation. What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse of integrity also affects our relationships with others. Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals. Risky Business We are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision-making process has been undermined by stress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake by understanding why we acted as we did, and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in the future. Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices. To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who doesn't know the rules abouto keep plagiarism may accidentally use words or ideas without giving proper credit, or one who fails careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and cite sources as required. But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the misconduct. Ignorance is not a defense. "But Everybody Does It" Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts, but manage to fool themselves about the risks they're taking by using excuses: "Everyone else does it," "I'm not hurting anyone," or "I really need this grade." Excuses can get very elaborate: "I know I'm looking at another's exam, even though I'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not cheating because I'm just checking my answers not copying." We must be honest about our actions, and avoid excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions. To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if your actions were public, and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. Would you feel proud or ashamed of your actions? If you'd rather hide your actions, that's a good indication that you're taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself. Evaluating Risks To decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future as well as right now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself. Those who take risks the later regret usually focus on immediate benefits ("what's in it for me"), and simply haven't considered what might go wrong. The consequences of getting caught are serious, and may include a "0" on a test o assignment; an "F" in the class; suspension or dismissal from school; transcript notation; and a tarnished reputation. In fact, when you break a rule or law, you lose control over your life, and give others the power to impose punishment: you have no control over what that punishment might be.

School of International Business Administration,ZISUSolutions to Assignment A(Note: Assignment A should be finished and handed in on May 2, 2012)I. Interpret the following terms and concepts. (5x3 =15 points)1. Economics: Economics is the study of how individuals and societies choose to use the scarce resources that nature and previous generations have provided.2. Equilibrium: The condition that exists when quantity supplied and quantity demanded are equal.3. Price elasticity of demand: The ratio of the percentage of change in quantity demanded to the percentage of change in price; measures the responsiveness of demand to changes in price.4. Opportunity cost: The best alternative that we give up when we make a choice or decision.5. Marginal benefit: The benefit of a one-unit increase in an activity, or it is what you gain when you get one more unit of something.II. Answer the following questions briefly. (4x5 =20 points)1. What are the three basic questions that microeconomics must answer?Answer: what gets produced? How is it produced? Who gets what is produced?2. What are the five types of elasticity?Answer: Perfectly inelastic, inelastic, unitarily elastic, elastic, perfectly elastic.3. List several key factors that influence the quantity of a product demanded by a single household. Answer: The price of the product, the income available to the household, the household’s accumulated wealth, the prices of other products available to the household, the household’s tastes and preferences, the household’s expectations about the future income, wealth and prices.4. How to distinguish between a change in quantity demanded and a shift of demand?Answer: Change in price of a product leads to change in quantity demanded, ceteris paribus, which is some movement along a demand curve. Change in income, preferences, or prices of other products leads to change in demand, holding price constant, which is a shift of the demand curve.III. Problems solved by calculation (10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 50 points)1. Suppose the demand and supply curves for eggs in United States are given by the following equations: Q d =100 -20P; Q s =10 +40P, where Q d = millions of dozens of eggs Americans would like to buy each year; Q s = millions of dozens of eggs U.S farms would like to sell each year; P=price per dozen eggs. (10 points)b. Use the information in the table to find the equilibrium price and quantity.c. Graph the demand and supply curves, and identify the equilibrium price and quantity.Answer:b. Equilibrium means quantity demanded equals quantity supplied. From Q d =100 -20P = Qs =10 +40P, we obtain the equilibrium price P $1.50 and equilibrium quantity Q = 70 million dozen eggs.c.1.50Quantity5.002. By using the midpoint formula, calculate elasticity for each of the following changes in demand by a household. Judge the household ’s demand for each of the following good or service is elastic, inelastic or unit elastic. (10 points)第3页Answer:a. 5.02/4.01.0-=-=∆P P ;667.02/900300==∆Q Q 33.15.0667.0==∆∆=PP Q Q e d >1 So t he household’s dem and for long-distance telephone is elastic.b. 237.069.14.0==∆P P ;154.0132-=-=∆Q Q 65.0237.0154.0==∆∆=PP Q Q e d <1 So t he household’s demand for orange juice is inelastic.c. 286.05.103==∆P P ;286.075.15.0-=-=∆Q Q1=∆∆=PP Q Q e dSo t he household’s demand for cooked shrimp is unit elastic.3. The following table gives a hypothetical total utility schedule for Tom (a person ’s name) to consume cookies. (10 points)a. Calculate Tom ’s marginal utility schedule.b. Draw a graph of total and marginal utilityc. Suppose Tom knows his total utility schedule for him to consume cookies. If cookies cost Tom 5 cents each, what is the maximum number of cookies he would most likely buy?Answer: a.450Number of cookies10015020025030035040010Number of cookies2030405060708090100c. The maximum that he would most likely buy would be 6 because the seventh yields no marginal utility.4. Assume that Jim is a rational consumer who consumes only two goods, good X and good Y .Jim ’s utility function is , where X and Y represent the quantities consumed of goods X and Y , respectively. (10 points)a. Assume that Jim ’s income is $90, the price of good X is $5 per unit, and the price of good Y is $10 per unit. What is Jim ’s consumer equilibrium? Sketch the equilibrium point on an indifference curve graph.b. If the price of good X is increased to $10 per unit while the price of good Y is decreased to $5 per unit, what is Jim ’s consumer equilibrium? Sketch the equilibrium point on an indifference curve graph.c. If Jim ’s income is increased to $180 while the prices of the two goods do not change, what is Jim ’s consumer equilibrium? Sketch the equilibrium point on an indifference curve graph.Answer:a . The utility-maximizing combination is called consumer equilibrium.First, Jim ’s consumer equilibrium is achieved when there existsSecond, Jim ’s consumer equilibrium must be made on his budget line which is given by the equation ,where and represent prices of good X and good Y, respectively; represents Jim ’s income.Marginal utility function for good X is equal to utility function ’s partial derivative to good X, i.e., Similarly, marginal utility function for good Y is given by(1)4/12/14Y X U =yyx x P MU P MU =M Y P X P y x =+x P y P M()4/12/14/12/124Y X X Y X X U MU x -=∂∂=∂∂=()4/32/14/12/14-=∂∂=∂∂=Y X YY X Y U MU y y y x x P MU P MU =Y X Y X Y X 410524/32/14/12/1=⇒=⇒--第5页(2)By solving equations (1) and (2), we gain Jim ’s consumer equilibrium:So Jim would buy 12 units of good X and 3 units of good Y to maximize his utility 。

2011年12月英语四级真题及答案1作文真题范文及点评Nothing Scucceeds Without a Strong Will by commenting on the humorous saying, "Quitting smoking is the eaiest thing in the world. I'va done it hundreds of times." You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.Part I WritingNothing Succeeds Without a Strong WillNothing runs smoothly in our life. To achieve things successfully, a strong will is essential. Life is like a Marathon. Many people can’t get to the terminal. This is not because they are lack of vit ality but because theirwill of success is not strong enough.To take quitting smoking as an example, some regard it as a piece of cake. They make up their minds to quit it in the morning, but in the evening they feel that the smell of cigarettes is tempting. Their throats are sore, their mouths are thirsty, and their hands are shaking. After the painful mental struggle, they tell themselves that “One cigarette is enough. Just take one, and the next day I will quit it.” By doing this, they surrender to th eir weak will. In the end, they have quitted smoking “a hundred times”, but in no time they succeed.Just like quitting smoking, nothing succeeds without a strong will. To be successful in one’s life, a strongwill means that you know where you go and you will persist on the road you choose. Undoubtedly success belongs to those who overcome their weak will and who hang in there until the last minute文章点评:本文属于话题类作文,只看题目“Nothing Succeeds without a strong will”考生会觉得比较抽象,难以下手。
临近四级考试还有一个月的时间,不妨将该月平均划分三期,前10天为第一期,中间10天为第二期,最后10天为第三期(可按自身情况制定不同时间间隔,但确保三阶段)。
之所以如此,是基于所谓的过程化管理理论,即将目标散化并合理置于各管理阶段中,以有效完成阶段性管理任务,从而实现最终目标。
而且,从实际操作角度来说,对三个10天的分别操控,难度上大大低于对一个30天的操控,考生可以在充实有效地复习过程中不知不觉完成最后的备考直至冲刺。
那么这三期中,前期重点为阅读和听力,中期重点为写作(含翻译)和听力。
最后一期为全套模拟题训练。
之所以如此安排,是因对阅读和写作而言,前者目标更难达至,故置前,只因阅读作为一种输入过程,不由己身,视输入对象而有不同心理感触和答题反应;而写作,作为一种输出过程,由己而发,得分高低跟内心句型储存量成正比,在模版盛行的今天,倒是可以通过多背记一些普适性优秀句型,从而得分,不会毫无斩获。
另外,这三期中听力是从始至终贯穿的,它除了起到良好的催眠作用外,每天坚持两个小时的精听和一个小时的泛听对提高听力成绩很有帮助,它最能证明坚持就是胜利的道理。
精听可以往年真题或模拟题(甚或六级听力题目)为材料,并做题,重点是长对话和短文听力,泛听即找来一些新闻类(BBC/VOA/CRI)或者网络下载听力材料进行训练,无需做题。
相信这样点面结合,坚持30天左右,会亲眼看到成效。
下面是具体的操作建议。
(1)前期----第一个10天期间,重点:阅读和听力。
上午:首先阅读然后听力。
题目来源即是往年真题,若已做过,再快速做一遍,对于曾做错的题目进行重复回看,教训要吸取,痛楚要记恨,如:“沉着气地将四个选项看完后再做选择,不可轻易选择着急付出”,并将此类教训醒目地贴于每天必看之处,(如床头,镜前等等)。

Life is like a Marathon. Many people can’t get to the terminal. This is not because they are lack of vitality but because their will of success is not strong enough. To take quitting smoking as an example, some regard it as a piece of cake. They make up their minds to quit it in the morning, but in the evening they feel that the smell of cigarettes is tempting.

名师何凯文:2012四六级四六级考试的作文题目无非就是两类:第一.和自己发展有关的个人成长成功话题;第二.和社会现象相关的学校社会热点话题;而四六级的写作结构很固定:第一段:引出话题第二段:阐释话题第三段:总结话题第一类话题需要大家说自己的认识,其实就是喊出一些无用的口号,并且的变了方的把这些口号喊的比较复杂,人在成长成功过程中的品质通常包括了:某种品质对成功很重要:可能出现的主题词:顺境与逆境( Favorable Circumstances and adverse Circumstances)勤奋(diligence; painstaking work)谨慎和坚毅(prudence and determination)热情和乐观(, enthusiasm and optimism)博学和求知(learnedness and seeking knowledge/pursuit of knowledge)绝望和坚持(Frustration and perseverance)独立性问(independence)感恩(gratitude)创新( creation and innovation)鼓励(encouragement)自满和谦逊(self-satisfied and modest)合作(cooperation)等:注意替换主题词就可以了.All in all, by cooperation among each other, we will be able to explore a wider world and reach further horizon. Furthermore, whatever difficulty or situation we are confronted with, those who have the spirit of cooperation and team work are nearer to success. Just as John Adams, the second U.S. president quoted from the ancient Greek Aesop’s Fables,“United we stand, divided we fall.”自信:(confidence)Take us youngsters born in the 1990s for example, without confidence/independence , how can we be through with the “GaoKao”, the toughest test in the world, and earn the opportunity to attend this test ? Without confidence, how can we plan to pursue a master or PHD degree?Without confidence, how can we contribute all our energy and enthusiasm to our academic study in the college life ? Obviously, a man is created to strive for excellence and challenge limit. As Martin Luther King put it, “ to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.”(可以把独立换成考场上需要你写的主题词,比如,the spirit of impendence等)以上两个例子字数也就是180个字,希望同学们背一下,即使这次四六级用不了,下次考研也能用的上的!社会和学校话题:对于学校社会话题同样是喊出口号,分析利弊,不可能写出太多实质的话题:常见的话题:1. 资源保护(Energy and Resource Saving)环境保护( Environmental protection)低碳环保(low-carbon life)旅游对环境的影响(2. 人口增长(The growth of China’s population)3. 家庭问题(The Problem of Domestic or Family Violence)4. 社会保障问题(Social security fund)5. 假冒伪劣产品问题( Counterfeits and unqualified products)食品安全(food safety)6. 消费者权益保护问题( The protection of consumers rights and interests)7. 社会诚信的缺失(Honest is the best policy . It pays to be honest.)It is not hard to notice that without honesty/credibility, hardly can individuals or organizations make money, take profits, let alone obtain wealth in the long term, especially in this fiercely competitive modern world, I argue.我认为,不难发现,要是没有诚信在这样一个竞争激烈的现代社会中,从长期来看个人和组织是很难赚到钱,赚到利润的,更不必说获得财富了。

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7 choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentence with the information given in the passage.Why Integrity MattersWhat Is Integrity?The key to integrity is consistency- not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each and every day. One who has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical (道德上的) standards even when making life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation.What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse (缺失) of integrity also affects our relationships with others. Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus integrity must be one of our most important goals. Risky BusinessWe are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision, making process has been undermined by stress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in the future.Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices. To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who doesn't know the rules a about plagiarism (剽窃) may accidentally use words or ideas without giving proper credit or one who fails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and cite sources as required. But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the misconduct, Ignorance is not a defense."But Everybody Does It"Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts but manage to fool themselves about the risks they're taking by using excuses: "Everyone else does it." "I'm not hurting anyone", or "I really need this grade." Excuses can get very elaborate: "I know I'm look at another's exam, even though I'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not cheating because I’mjust checking my answers, not copying." We must be honest about our actions and avoid excuses, if we fool ourselves into believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see the real choice we're making - and that leads to bad decisions.To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if your actions were public and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. If you'd rather hide your actions, that's an indication that you're taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself.Evaluating RisksTo decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future as well as right now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself. Those who take risks they later regret usually focus on immolate benefits and simply haven't considered what might go wrong. The consequences of getting caught are serious and may include a "O" on a test or assignment, an "F" in the class, suspension (暂令停学) or dismissal from school and a ruined reputation. In fact, when you break a role or law, you lose control over your life and give others the power to impose punishment that you have no control over. This is an extremely vulnerable (脆弱的) position. There may be some matters of life and death or highest principle, which might justify such a risk, but there aren't many things that fall in this category.Getting Away with it - Or NotThose who don't get caught pay an even higher price. A cheater doesn't learn from the test, which deprives (剥夺) him her of an education. Cheating undermines confidence and independence: the cheater is a fraud, and knows that without dishonesty, he/she would have failed. Cheating destroys self-respect and integrity, leaving the cheater ashamed, guilty and afraid of getting caught.Worst of all, a cheater who doesn't get caught the first time usually cheats again, not only because he/she is farther behind, but also because it seems "easier." This slippery slope of eroding ethics and bigger risks leads only to disaster. Eventually, the cheater gets caught, and the later he/she gets caught, the worse the consequences.Cheating Hurts Other, TooCheaters often feel invisible, as if their actions "don't count" and don't really hurt anyone. But individual choices have an intense cumulative (累积的) effect. Cheating can spread like a disease. Recent statistics suggest 30%or more of college students cheat. If a class is graded on a curve, cheating hurts others' grades. Even if there is no curve, cheating "poisons" the classroom, and others may feel pressured to join in. ("If I don't cheat I can't compete with those who do") Cheating also has a destructive impact on teachers. The real reward of goof teaching is seeing students learn. But a cheater says. "I'm not interested in what you're trying to teach, all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of the effect on others." The end result is a destructive attack on the quality of your education. Finally, cheating can hurt the reputation of the university and harm those who worked hard for their degree.Why Integrity MartenIf cheating becomes the norm, then we are in big trouble. We must rely on the honesty and good faith of others, if not, we couldn't put money in the bank, buy food, clothing, or medicine from others, drive across a bridge, get on a plane, go to the dentist--the list is endless. There are many examples of the vast harm that is caused when individuals forget or ignore the effect their dishonesty can have. The savings and loan scandal, the stock market and junk bond swindles, and, of course, Watergate, have undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity of politicaland economic leaders and society as a whole. Such incidents take a tremendous toll on our nation's economy and our individual well-being. For example, but for the savings and loan debacle, there might be funds available to reduce the national debt and pay for education.In sum, we all have a common stake in our school, our community, and our society. Our actions do matter. It is essential that we act with integrity in order to build the kind of world in which we want to live.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。
