November and December 36 early snow and bone-chilling temperatures in much of the country, part of a year when, for the first time in two 37 , record-cold days will likely turn out to have outnumbered record-warm ones. But the U.S. was the exception; November was the warmest ever 38 , and current data indicates that 2013 is likely to have been the fourth hottest year on record.对很多美国人来说，2013年在极其寒冷中结束。

11月底和12月，美国的大部分地区都经历了初雪和寒冷刺骨的天气。

这段时间寒冷的天数可能超过温暖的天数，这种情况二十年来第一次在美国出现。

现有数据表明，2013年有可能是有记录以来第四个最热的年份。

2015年12月四级英语考试真题与答案解析作文（一）周思远题目：For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Learning is a daily experience and a lifelong mission。

”You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of lifelong learning。

You should write at least 120 words，no more than 180 words。

参考范文：Currently in this constantly changing world，learning becomes a seemingly convenient but actually more complex matter。

As an old saying goes，”Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission”。

Apparently，the meaning of this saying is that if we truly desire to learn something，we are supposed to devote our life to it。

There are several reasons accounting for this viewpoint。

For one thing，learning itself is an actually complicated and painful matter，and as a result，it is advisable for us to commit much more time even our whole life to it。

2015年12月英语四级综合练习（一）2015年英语四级选词填空练习题及答案分析(21)Americans are proud of their variety and individualty, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform. Why are uniforms so __1__ in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more __2__ than civilian clothes. People have become conditioned to __3__ superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform tends to __4__ more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the __5__ of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What an easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to __6__ professional identity than to step out of uniform? Uniforms also have many __7__ benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of __8__ experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without __9__, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act __10__, on the job at least.[A] skill[B] popular[C] get[D] change[E] similarly[F] professional[G] character[H] individuality[I] inspire[J] differently[K] expect[L] practical[M] recall[N] lose[O] ordinary2015年6月英语四级长篇阅读练习题(3)Green GrowthA．The enrichment of previously poor countries is the most inspiring development of our time. It is also worrying. The environment is already under strain. What willhappen when the global population rises from 7 billion today to 9.3 billion in 2050, as demographers(人口统计学家) expect, and a growing proportion of these people can'afford goods that were once reserved for the elite? Can the planet support so much economic activity?B .Many policymakers adopt a top-down and Western-centfic approach to such planetary problems. They discuss ambitious regulations in global forums, or look to giant multinationals and well-heeled (富有的) NGOs to set an example. But since most people live in the emerging world, it makes sense to look at what successful companies there are doing to make growth more sustainable.C．A new study by the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) identifies 16 emerging-market firms that they say are turning eco-consciousness into a source of competitive advantage. These highly profitable companies (which the study calls "the new sustainability champions") are using greenery to reduce costs, motivate workers and forge relationships. Their home-grown ideas will probably be easier for their peers to copy than anything cooked up in the West.D．The most outstanding quality of these companies is that they turn limitationsof resources, labor and infrastructure) into opportunities. Thus, India's Shree Cement, which has tong suffered from water shortages, developed the world's most water-efficient method for making cement, in part by using air-cooling rather than water-cooling. Manila Water, a utility in the Philippines, reduced the amount of water it was losing, through wastage and illegal tapping, from 63% in 1997 to 12% in 2010 by making water affordable for the poor.Broad Group, a Chinese maker of air conditioners, taps the waste heat from buildings to power its machines. Zhangzidao Fishery Group, a Chinese aquaculture (水产养殖) company, recycles uneaten fish feed to fertilize crops.E.Setting green goals is a common practice. Sekem, an Egyptian food producer, set itself the task of reclaiming ( 开垦) desert land through organic farming. Florida Ice & Farm, a Costa Rican food and drink company, has adopted strict standards for the amount of water it can consume in producing drinks.F.These firms measure themselves by their greenery, too. Florida Ice & Farm, for example, links 60% of its boss's pay to the triple bottom line of "people, planet and profit". The sustainability champions also encourage their workers to come up with green ideas. Natura, a Brazilian cosmetics company, gives bonuses to staff who find ways to reduce the firm's impact on the environment. Masisa, a Chilean forestry company, invites employees to "imagine unimaginable businesses" aimed at poorer consumers. Woolworths, a South African retailer, claims that many of its best green ideas have come from staff, not bosses.G.In emerging markets it is hard for companies to stick to one specialism, because they have to worry about so many wider problems, from humble infrastructure to unreliable supply chains. So the sustainability champions seek to shape the business environment in which they operate. They lobby (游说) regulators: Grupo Balbo, a Brazilian organic-sugar producer, is working with the Brazilian government to establish a certification system for organic products. They form partnerships with governments and NGOs. Kenya's Equity Bank has formed an alliance with groups such as The International Fund for Agricultural Development to reduce its risks when lending to smallholders. Natura has worked with its suppliers to produce sustainable packaging, including a new "green" plastic derived from sugar cane.H. The firms also work hard to reach and educate poor consumers, often sacrificing short-term profits to create future markets. Masisa organizes local carpenters into networks and connects them to low-income furniture buyers. Broad Group has developed a miniature device for measuring air pollution that can fit into mobile phones. Jain Irrigation, an Indian maker of irrigation systems, uses dance and song to explain the benefits of drip irrigation to farmers who can't read. Suntech, a Chinese solar-power company, has established a low- carbon museum to celebrate ways of reducing carbon-dioxide emissions.Rich became green, or green became rich?I.One could quibble (争辩)with BCG's analysis. Phil Rosenzweig of Switzerland's IMDbusiness school has argued that management writers are prone to "the halo effect": they treat the temporary success of a company as proof that it has discovered some eternal principle of good management. The fact that some successful companies have embraced greenery does not prove that greenery makes a firm successful. Some firms, having prospered, find they can afford to splurge ( 挥霍) on greenery. Some successful firrns pursue greenery for public-relations purposes. And for every sustainable emerging champion, there are surely 100 firms that have prospered by belching ( 喷出) fumes into the air or pumping toxins into rivers.J.Nonetheless, the central message of the WEF-BCG study--that some of the best emerging-world companies are combining profits with greenery--is thought-provoking. Many critics of environmentalism argue that it is a rich-world luxury: that the poor need adequate food before they need super-clean air. Some even see greenery as a rich-world conspiracy ( 阴谋): the West grew rich by industrializing (and polluting ), but now wants to stop the rest of the world from following suit. The WEF-BCG report demonstrates that such fears are overblown. Emerging-world companies can be just as green as their Western rivals. Many have found that, when natural resources are scarce and consumers are cash-strapped ( 资金短缺的), greenery can be a lucrative(利润丰厚的) business strategy.46. An air-conditioner manufacturer uses the waste heat from buildings to supply its machines with power.47. Many critics of environmentalism hold the view that greenery is a rich-world luxury because that's not what the poor people badly want.48. Workers of the sustainability champions are motivated to bring forward green ideas.49. It is meaningful to study what successful companies in the emerging world are doing to achieve more sustainable growth, since most people live there.50. It's difficult for companies in emerging markets to keep focusing on one specific problem because they have many wider problems to worry about.51. Although some successful firms have embraced greenery, it doesn't mean that greenery will lead to the success of a firm.52. It will probably be easier for companies to follow the home-grown ideas than those invented in the West.53. It has been found that greenery can be profitable when natural resources are scarce and consumers are short of cash.54. Sekem, which produces food in Egypt, set a goal to reclaim desert land through organic farming.55. To create future markets, the firms also make effort to reach and educate poor consumers, often at the cost of short-term profits.2014年12月英语四级阅读练习及答案(1)Section CDirections：There are 2 passages in this section．Each passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements．For each ofthem there are four choices marked A.，B.，C.and D.．You shouM decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre．Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on thefollowingpassage．With so many of the deaths each year from around the world directly related to poor healthchoices we make．world health leaders have set a goal of lowering the number of preventable deaths by 25％from 2010 rates by 2025．That would save 37 million lives over 15 years．Reporting in thejournal Lancet，public health experts note that the ways to prevent those deaths area’t surpris ing．But acting on those strategies will take individual and political will．Here’s how the experts hope to do it．Not smoke．The UN General Assembly set a target of cutting smoking around the world by 30％by 2025．Already,higher-income nations that already adopted smoking bans in public places and instituted tobacco taxes have seen drops in smoking rates，however,residents in lower-income nations continue to light up at high rates．Limit excessive drinking．While moderate amounts of alcohol have been linked to some health benefits，overindulging can increase the risk of certain cancers and liver disease，as well as contribute to high blood pressure．Educating people about the risks of excessive drinking，as well as instituting taxes on alcoholic products，has been somewhat successful in curbing(遏制)abuse．Cut back on salt．High sodium (钠)diets can increase blood pressure and contribute to heart disease and stroke，and in many developed countries，people eat several times the amount the salt their bodies need．In the U．S．，the average American consumes about 800mg more salt every day than health experts consider acceptable．Promoting alternatives，such as the citric acid in lemons，to satisfy the need for salt，Call help to bring sodiunl consumption down．Get blood pressure under control．Lack of exercise and high sodium diets contribute to hypertension(高血压)，and uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to stroke and heart disease．Monitoring blood pressure with regular screenings，and treating elevated levels with changes in diet and exercise，or medications if necessary,are the most effective ways to address this risk factor．Address diabetes．Closely tied to the obesity epidemic(肥胖病)that now affects developing as well as developed nations，diabetes can increase the risk of heart disease，kidney disease and other conditions that can shorten life．Studies show that lifestyle changes incorporating healthy diets low in sugar and phy’sical activity call be as effective as medications in keeping blood sugar levels in check．56．Wha t does the author mean by sayin9“acting on those strategies will take individual and political will”(Line 4-5，para．1)?A.Both politicians and individuals wish to put the strategies into practice．B.

2015年12月大学英语四级阅读真题及答案（一套）答案：GMBOI，DFJHNICKEB，FAHJGABACC，CBADDGMBOI，DFJHNICKEB，FAHJGABACC，CBADD2015年12月四级考试如期进行。

从笔者拿到的套题的阅读部分来看，整体难度适中，较往年趋于平稳。

选词填空部分(关于《children s cognitive abilities儿童认知能力》)首先从选项设计上看，四大词性(名、动、形、副)考查数量分布均匀(3233)，不确定形式(Ving 和Ved)共4个，另外只有advocate一个词属于一词多性的情况，相对选项设计总体难度属于中等偏易。

再看文章部分，谈论的是关于儿童认知(children s cognitive abilities)方面的知识的话题，属于小冷门，但文章语言表达适中，且短句占主体，平衡了话题生僻对考试带来的解题障碍。

其中cognitive还给出了中文注解，也正好应验了我们反复强调的中文重要性的应试知识要点。

同时，空格设置处的词性相对比较容易判断，例如，名词前给出了单复数的区别的代词those作为提示，又例如，非谓语动词只考查了一个正在进行时，而做后置定语或状语的高难度应用本篇没有涉及。

段落匹配部分(The Perfect Essay)首先看备选的十个小标题，均无长难句，同时出现大量重复信息，例如除了与文章title 本身密切相关的essay ，flaw，flawless，perfection以外，还有mother，criticism，从而能顺利预测出文章谈及的是通过母亲的有建设性的批评，提升作者的写作能力。

这也是我们要求的先题后文解决段落匹配的技巧。

从长文章的段落设计上看，一共11段(K)，属于段落数量适中的情况，也为匹配选择降低难度。

但对于所谓长阅读文章只看开头结尾的谬论，用真题再次给予回击，十道匹配中至少3题涉及段落中间部分，2题涉及对全段进行总结。
