They called it the "great queue of China". It was, with the famous structure snaking to the horizon behind him completely hidden by a mass of other tourists. The vast imperial palace, the Forbidden City, at one point welcomed more than 180,000 visitors in a single day. In the desert at Dunhuang, at least two camels transporting tourists reportedly died from overwork in the Golden Week. And Chinese media said road traffic was up by thirteen percent on last year, causing unprecedented jams.英语四级听力新题型模拟听写训练(第1套) 短篇新闻(2)Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.These days, German government has been criticized for not doing enough to commemorate the 100th anniversary of World War I.Germany has spent less on events than some other European countries.And the events which have taken place have been seen as half-hearted by critics.Traditionally in Germany the First World War is overshadowed by the Second World War. History teaching in German schools tends to focus on the crimes of the Nazis rather than what happened a generation earlier.And since 1945 there's been a strong aversion in Germany to anything that might be seen as glorifying militarism.So many people here are uncomfortable with any anniversary of a war or a battle.There's still some disagreement among historians about who was responsible for World War I. But having spent the last 70 years making up for Nazi guilt,many Germans have little appetite to now take on the blame for the First World War, too. Question 3.What makes the German government be criticized recently?Question 4.What's the attitude of German people towards militarism?问题3和问题4是基于下面这则新闻的。

英文对照:Pigs are not native to North America. They were first introduced to California by Spanish and Russian explorers and settlers many centuries ago. In the early times, pigs were allowed to wander freely and search of food. This practice also allowed many pigs to escape from farms and live in the wild, which became a problem.猪并非是美国的本土物种。
多个世纪前，西班牙和俄罗斯的探险家和定居者首次将它们引入加利福尼亚州。

Like most of his childhood friends, Ronaldo began his soccer career playing barefoot in the streets of his neighborhood. (11) At the age of 14, he joined a soccer club and only two years later became the star of the club scoring a total of 58 goals in 60 matches and (12) earned himself a reputation for his explosive pace and outstanding finishing skills. His goal-scoring record and unusual alertness led him to be included in the Brazilian World Cup winning team the following year. After the World Cup, many top European football clubs were trying to sign him. Since his transfer to the Dutch team, Ronaldo’s biography is one of success after success. Since the 1998 World Cup he has suffered two serious knee injuries that have severely limited his appearances. Just when people began to wonder whether Ronaldo would be able to continue with his football career, he proved to the world that he still could play. (13)In the World Cup held in Korea and Japan, the magical striker won the Golden Shoe award. He helped Brazil capture its fifth World Cup championship. It was the third time that Ronaldo has ever played in the World Cup.1．Ronaldo first became the star of a soccer club at the age of________.A．twelveB．fourteenC．sixteenD．eighteen正确答案：C 涉及知识点：短文2．Which is NOT mentioned as Ronaldo reputation?A．Outstanding agility.B．Explosive pace.C．Finishing skills.D．Unusual alertness.正确答案：A 涉及知识点：短文3．When did Ronaldo prove to the world he still could play?A．In the Brazilian World Cup.B．In the English World Cup.C．In the 1998 World Cup.D．In the Korean and Japanese World Cup.正确答案：D 涉及知识点：短文听力原文：English speakers continue to invent new words by linking old words together. A good example is the words “motor” and “hotel”. Many years ago someone linked them together into the word “motel”. (14) A motel is a small hotel near the road where people travelling in cars can stay for the night. Other words come from the first letters of names of groups or devices. A device to find objects that cannot be seen called Radio Detecting and Ranging became “Radar”. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is usually called NATO. (15) Experts say that English has more words that explain the same thing than any other language. For example, the words “large,”“huge,”“vast,”“massive,” and “enormous” all mean something really “big”. People often ask how many words there are in the English language. Well, no one really knows. (16)The Oxford English Dictionary lists about six hundred fifteen thousand words. Yet the many scientific words not in the dictionary could increase the number to almost one million. And experts are never really sure how to count English words. For example, the word “mouse”, a mouse is a small creature having pointed nose and small ears with hairless tails. But “mouse”has another very different meaning. A “mouse”is also a hand-held device used to help control a computer, If you are counting words do you count “mouse” two times?4．A motel is usually for people who________.A．have no place to stayB．lose their waysC．travel in carsD．live far from roads正确答案：C 涉及知识点：短文5．We can learn from the passage that experts believe_______.A．English has many words to explain the same thingB．English speakers always invent combined wordsC．the number of English words could be countedD．words of two meanings shouldn’t be counted twice正确答案：A 涉及知识点：短文6．The Oxford English Dictionary lists about _______A．615,000 wordsB．650,000 wordsC．1,615,000 wordsD．1,650,000 words正确答案：A 涉及知识点：短文听力原文：The British summer is extremely beautiful. Trees, flowers, birds and butterflies make the whole country like a big garden. However, many British people have noticed that butterflies have been gradually disappearing from this picturesque scenery during the past several years. What has happened to them? Butterfly Conservation in the UK is running a survey to help answer this question. The result is more serious than people expected. (12) According to the survey, among 59 butterfly species found in the British Isles, more than three-quarters of them are suffering a declining population. Moreover, half of all butterfly species are on the verge of extinction. The numbers of butterflies have dropped to a low record in the past three years largely because the summer in the UK is getting cooler and their habitat is also degrading. Fortunately, Britain is experiencing a long hot summer this year compared to the last few summers. Conservationists believe the warm weather will bring some benefit to the butterflies. Sir David Attenborough, President of Butterfly Conservation, said, “(13) Butterflies in profusion tell us that all is well with nature. When they decline it’s a warning that other wildlife will soon be heading the same way”. The organizers hope the survey will help raise public awareness of the value of butterflies in the UK. Butterflies give an indication of the well-being of nature and the environment.7．According to the passage, a survey about butterflies is carried on by________.A．British IslesB．British Butterfly ConservationC．Environment Conservation in the UKD．Sir David Attenborough正确答案：B 涉及知识点：短文8．How many percent of butterfly species are suffering the population declination?A．More than 59%.B．More than 50%.C．More than 45%.D．More than 75%.正确答案：D 涉及知识点：短文9．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A．Butterflies in profusion tell us that all is well with nature.B．Butterfly species’ declining indicates that other wild lives will face extinction.C．The butterflies’ situation tells us the relationship between nature and human being.D．The butterflies survey makes public aware of the importance of butterflies.正确答案：C 涉及知识点：短文听力原文：Before we start our first lab, I’d like to tell you a little bit about the workbook we’ll be using. (14)The first thing I’d like to point out is that the workbook contains a very large amount of material—far more than you could ever handle in a single semester. (15)What you’re supposed to do is choose the experiments and activities that you want to do—within a certain framework, of course. Part of my job is to help you make your choices. Next, I’d like to mention that in each workbook chapter, there are usually two subsections. The first is called “Experiments”and the second is called “Activities”. (16) In the “Experiments”section, the workbook gives full instructions for all the experiments, including alternate procedures. Choose the procedure you wish—there’s plenty of equipment available. In the “Activities” section, you will find suggestions for projects that you can do on your own time. You’ll see that there are usually no detailed instructions for the activities—you’re supposed to do them in your own way. If there are no questions, let’s turn to Chapter One now.10．How long does it take to cover the workbook material?A．For more than a term.B．For less than a semester.C．For no more than a term.D．For no less than a year.正确答案：A 涉及知识点：短文11．According to the passage, students would choose the experiments and activitiesA．under a set structureB．in accordance with instructionsC．based on discussionsD．within some frameworks正确答案：D 涉及知识点：短文12．Where can you find detailed procedures in the workbook?A．In “Preface” section.B．In “Directions” section.C．In “Experiments” section.D．In “Activities” section.正确答案：C 涉及知识点：短文听力原文：While nearly all men are poor at public speaking, women are even worse. This is partly because women cannot tell jokes, but also because we are better at self-awareness and therefore know that our speech is average and the audience would rather be doing something else—(17) thoughts that do little to enhance performance. (18) To combat fear and innate hopelessness, I try quite hard to be better. Every time a book about public speaking arrives on my desk, I skim it for tips. Mostly they tell you to “relax”and to “be yourself”—(19)which is downright irresponsible. This works only for the one in a billion who is born a brilliant speaker. Being good, for everyone else means reaching such an elevated level of nervousness and artifice that you can present an entirely convincing picture of authenticity and relaxation. I have only come across two bits of helpful advice. The first is practice, practice, practice. This is a bore because it takes a lot of time, but there is no way round it. (20)The second is to junk all aids-PowerPoint is a crutch. It is an ugly thing in itself and must be thrown away if you want to talk smoothly. Equally, you must never read a speech. Write it, learn it and then leave it at home, speaking with minimal notes.13．Which is NOT mentioned as the reason why women are poor at public speaking?A．Women cannot tell jokes.B．Women are better at self-awareness.C．Women do little to enhance performance.D．Women know their speech is average.正确答案：C 涉及知识点：短文14．According to the passage, which of the following statements is CORRECT?A．Men are poorer than women at public speaking.B．Books on public speaking work for people poor at speaking.C．Being good means reaching a usual level of artifice.D．The speaker tries hard to combat innate hopelessness.正确答案：D 涉及知识点：短文15．What’s the speaker’s attitude towards books about public speaking?A．Positive.B．Grateful.C．Neutral.D．Distrustful.正确答案：D 涉及知识点：短文16．The speaker suggests all the following EXCEPT________.A．writing a speechB．using PowerPointC．practicing moreD．taking minimal notes正确答案：B 涉及知识点：短文。
2021年12月英语四级(第2套)听力真题短文(1)Analytical skills are our ability to understand and solve problems using information we have available. These skills are extremely important for our professional, social, and intellectual lives. What are the best ways to improve them? One way is to expand your world view. Unfortunately, this takes time. Ultimately, it will help you better evaluate information and analyze different ideas and outcomes. Traveling is a great way to expand your world view, although it can be expensive. An entertaining way of enhancing your analytical skills is to engage them by playing brain games. These are games that challenge you to think deeply and to develop your analytical skills. These games will get you used to thinking in a certain way. As a result, they will help improve your ability to think. However, opinions vary on whether video games are effective. The general consensus is that the best ones avoid mindless violence, and instead focus on strategy and challenge us to solve problems and achieve broad goals. Joining a debate or reading club or group is also a good idea. This provides people with the opportunity to come together and discuss ideas,literature and problems. Groups like these will help you refine your analytical skills and enable you to express yourself better. Any social group that encourages free exchange of ideas and pursuit of knowledge is beneficial. It helps you to actively develop your analytical skills.分析技能是我们利用现有信息理解和解决问题的能力。
2021年12月英语四级(第2套)听力真题短文(3)Passage Three篇章三Take care of your teeth and your teeth will take care of you.好好保护你的牙齿，牙齿不会亏待你的。
Your teeth are a living part of your body. They have nerves and blood vessels.牙齿是身体的有机部分。
他们也有神经和血管。
Diseased teeth can cause pain, die and fall out.龋齿会疼痛、死亡，然后脱落。
Plaque is the main enemy of healthy teeth. Everyone has plaque.牙斑是一口好牙的劲敌。
每个人都有牙斑。
It is a sticky colorless film that coats the teeth.它是一种无色的黏着薄膜，覆盖在牙齿上。
Plaque is always forming on the teeth, especially at the gum line.牙斑总是在牙齿表面形成，牙龈线上尤其常见。
If plaque is not removed, it builds up and gets under the gum line.如果不把牙斑清掉，它就会一点点累积起来，侵蚀牙龈线。
Plaque that is left on the teeth for some time hardens; the result is tooth decay and gum disease.被留在牙齿表面的牙斑，一段时间以后变硬，最终导致蛀牙和牙周炎。
The bacteria in plaque live on sugar.牙斑中的细菌靠糖类生存。
They change sugar into acids, which break down the tooth's harder outer covering.他们把糖转化成酸，酸会分解坚硬的牙齿外壳。
There is a big difference between town life and country life in England. In the country, everybody knows everybody else. They know what time you get up, what time you go to bed and what you have for dinner. If you want help, you will always get it and you will be glad to help others.In a large town like London, however, it can sometimes happen that you have never seen your next door neighbor and you do not know his name or anything about him. People in London are often very lonely. This is because people go to different places in the evenings and at weekends. If you walk through the streets in the centre of London on Sunday, it is like a town without people. One is sorry for old people living on their own. They could die in their homes and would not be discovered for weeks or even months.Change in Women’s LifeThe important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full-time or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them. Useful Words and Expressions:1. life-pattern生活方式2. SharePopular Pastime of the English PeopleOne of the best means of understanding the people of any nation is watching what the do with their non-working time.Most English men, women and children love growing things, especially flowers. Visitors to England in spring, summer or autumn are likely to see gardens all they way along the railway lines. There are flowers at the airports and flowers in factory grounds, as well as in gardens along the roads. Each English town has at least one park with beautifully kept flower beds. Public buildings of every kind have brilliant window boxes and sometimes baskets of flowers are hanging on them.But what the English enjoy most is growing things themselves. If it is impossible to have a garden, then a window box or something growing in a pot will do. Looking at each other’s gardens is a popular pastime with the English.Useful Words and Expressions:1. window box:窗台上的花盆箱消遣，娱乐Swimming is my favorite pastime.and American Police OfficersReal policemen, both in Britain and the ., hardly recognize any common points between their lives and what they se on TV—if they ever get home in time.Some things are almost the same, of course, but the policemen do not think much of them much of them.The first difference is that a policeman’s real life deals with the law. Most of what he learns is the law. He has to know actually what actions are against the law and what facts can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a lawyer, and what’s more, he has to put it into practice on his feet, in the dark and, running down a narrow street after someone he wants to talk to. Little of his time is spent in talking with beautiful girls or in bravely facing cruel criminals. He will spend most of his working life arranging millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, ordinary people who are guilty--- or not of stupid, unimportant crimes.Useful Words and Expressions:1. think much of 重视，尊重2. in court 在法庭上3. criminal 罪犯，犯罪者4. guilty 犯罪的，有罪的 SpaceHow much living space does a person need What happens when his space needs are not met Scientists are doing experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have enough living space, they eat well, sleep well and produce their young well. But if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior and even their health change obviously. They can not sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and worry become clear. The more crowded they are, and more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus, for rats, populations and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well Is enough space not only satisfactory, but necessary for human survival These are interesting questions.United NationsIn 1945, representatives of 50 nations met to plan this organization. It was called the United Nations. After the war, many more nations joined.There are two major parts of the United Nations. One is called the General Assembly. In the General Assembly, every member nation is represented and has an equal vote. The second part is called the Security Council. It has representatives of just 15 nations. Five nations are permanent members: the United States, Russia, France, Britain, and China. The 10 other members are elected every two years by the General Assembly.The major job of the Security Council is to keep peace in the world. If necessary, it can send troops from member nations to try to stop little wars before they turn into big ones.It is hard to get the nations of the Security Council to agree on when this is necessary. But they did vote to try to stop wars.Useful Words and Expressions:1. representative 代表2. General Assembly 联合国大会3. permanent 永久的，持久的4. Security Council 联合国安全理事会We use plastic wrap to protect our foods. We put our garbage in plastic bags or plastic cans. We sit on plastic chairs, play with plastic toys, drink from plastic cups, and wash our hair with shampoo from plastic bottles!Plastic does not grow in nature. It is made by mixing certain things together. We call it a produced or manufactured material. Plastic was first made in the 1860s from plants, such as wood and cotton. That plastic was soft and burned easily. The first modern plastics were made in the 1930s. Most clear plastic starts out as thick, black oil. That plastic coating inside a pan begins as natural gas.Over the years, hundreds of different plastics have been developed. Some are hard and strong. Some are soft and bendable. Some are clear. Some are many-colored. There is a plastic for almost every need. Scientists continue to experiment with plastics. They hope to find even ways to use them!of GoodsAre supermarkets designed to persuade us to buy moreFresh fruit and vegetables are displayed near supermarket entrances. This gives the impression that only healthy food is sold in the shop. Basic foods that everyone buys, like sugar and tea, are not put near each other. They are kept in different aisles so customers are taken past other attractive foods before they find what they want. In this way, shoppers are encouraged to buy products that they do not really need.Sweets are often placed at children’s eye level at the checkout. While parents are waiting to pay, children reach for the sweets and put them in the trolley.More is bought from a fifteen-foot display of one type of product than from a ten-foot one. Customers also buy more when shelves are full than when they are half empty. They do not like to buy from shelves with few products on them because they feel there is something wrong with those products that are there.Useful Words and Expressions:1. aisle 走廊，过道2. trolley 手推车3. checkout 收款台EinsteinAlbert Einstein was born in Germany in 1879, His father owned a factory that made electrical devices. His mother enjoyed music and books. His parents were Jewish but they did not observe many of the religion’s rules. Albert was a quite child who spent much of his time alone. He was slow to talk and had difficulty learning to read. When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass. The child was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction—to be north. He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move. Their answers about magnetism and gravity were difficult for the boy to understand. Yet he spent a lot of time thinking about them. He said later that he felt something hidden had to be behind things.Useful expressions and words:1. device 装置，设备leave to one’s own devices 听任某人自行其是，允许某人按自己的意愿做事She left the child to her own devices for an hour in the afternoon.她允许孩子在下午有一个小时的自由支配时间。

Feeding birds has become so popular that prepared feed mixtures are readily available. We feed birds for many reasons.喂养鸟类已经变的如此普遍以至于鸟食随处可见。
我们喂养鸟类有很多原因。
Many pleasant hours can come from watching birds. A hobby often develops into a serious study of their habits.观察鸟类可以让我们度过很多愉快的时光。
爱好经常发展为一项严肃的鸟类习性研究。
Accurate identification of birds is usually the first goal. But observations that an amateur bird-watcher can make are really limitless.准确地辨认鸟类往往是第一个目标。
但是业余鸟类观察者可以做的观察确实是无止境的。

2021年12月英语四级(第2套)听力真题短文(1)All parents know it is difficult to get children to eat their vegetables. Some of them offer rewards or treats for children finishing their share. But researchers have discovered that youngsters who are not praised for trying vegetables are more likely to eat them eventually. The study found that the best way to get children to eat food they do not like is simply to give them repeated exposure to it. Psychologists from Ghent University in Belgium studied 98 children. They gave them five kinds of vegetables to eat-mushrooms, peas, eggplants, carrots and cabbages. The taste tests revealed that carrots were the least-liked vegetable among youngsters. The children were then given a bowl of boiled carrots and told to choose how much to eat. After 8 minutes, they were asked to rate the dish as “delicious,”“just OK” or “disgusting.” The trial went on twice a week for a month, with a follow-up taste test after 8 weeks. Children were split into three groups, with one group asked to try the bowl of carrots repeatedly with no further encouragement. The other two groups were given rewards of a toy or verbal praise. Afterthe trial, 81% of children who simply tried the carrots consistently liked them. This is in contrast to 68% for the group given a toy and 75% for the group given verbal praise.所有的父母都知道让孩子吃蔬菜很难。

hat Kind Of Dogs Are Sled Dogs?
In books and movies like Call of the Wild, huge, vicious huskies pull sleds for hundreds of miles over the Alaskan tundra. A Moment of Science wonders, what kind of dogs are sled dogs?
Husky
Most champion sled dogs are not pure husky： in fact, the “Alaskan Husky” isn’t really a breed at all：it’s a mix of various breeds. Although not pure bred, every sled dog must be carefully bred for life on the trail.
The dogs need heavy coats to protect them from the cold, and tough feet to prevent injuries. Unlike the tough dogs in the movies, dogs with softer feet wear booties when they run.
Sled Dogs
The dogs also need compact bodies to maximize endurance. The sled dogs’ remarkable endurance is t hanks to their large heart-to-body ratio, and their ability to carry oxygen from the lungs to the muscles, which is about three times that of a human being
On film, large dogs seem powerful, but their size decreases their ability to use oxygen efficiently. In competitive dog-sledding, dogs usually weigh less than 55 pounds and can comfortably trot over 70 miles a day.
Temperment
A sled dog also needs the right temperament. They must love running and be sociable and obedient. Like wild dogs, each team has a hierarchy, but the dogs struggle for position by taking aggressive or submissive postures such as squealing and rolling. Real dogfights are rare because the dogs are carefully introduced and trained before going out on the trail.
The careful crossing of northern dogs, like Malamutes, with southern breeds like Greyhounds produces dogs with the right stuff to be sled dogs.
雪橇狗是什么品种？
在书里或者在像《野性的呼唤》之类的电影里，巨型凶猛的哈士奇在阿拉斯加的冻原上可驰骋数百英里。
《科学一刻》栏目想知道，到底什么样的狗是雪橇狗呢？
哈士奇
绝大部分冠军雪橇狗都不是纯种哈士奇：事实上，所谓的“阿拉斯加哈士奇”根本就不是一个品种，而是由多个品种杂交而成。
即使并非纯种，每条雪橇狗在其拉雪橇的生涯中都需精心喂养。
狗狗们需穿戴厚重的保暖服以免受寒，以及拥有强健的足部以防止受伤。
与电影里面强壮的狗狗不同，足部柔软的狗狗在奔跑时会穿上短靴。
雪橇狗
狗狗们需要结实的身躯以使自身耐力化。
雪橇狗耐力持久，主要是因为它们的心脏对比其身体来说相当之大，并且它们将肺部的氧气供给给肌肉的水平是人类的三倍。
在电影里，体型巨大的狗狗看起来很强壮，而事实上它们的体型弱化了它们利用氧气的水平。
在雪橇狗竞技当中，通常体重在55磅以下的狗狗每天能够轻松地慢跑70英里。
性情
雪橇狗需性情温和。
他们必须热爱奔跑，温顺友好。
正如野狗一样，每个狗群都有头狗，但是狗狗们通过极具侵略性的长吠或者表达顺从的滚地等动作来获取位置。
狗狗们混战的机率较小，因为在进入雪橇队之前他们就已经受到了良好的引导和训练。
北方的爱斯基摩狗与南方品种如长腿猎狗等交配得当，那么他们的后代将具备成为雪橇狗的优良基因。
