After the reading, decide on the best choice from the options given to each question.(15%)How and why do popular astrology and supernatural beliefs thrive in the West, especially in the USA? Americans are strong promoters of the thesis "man makes his destiny," where "destiny" places considerable emphasis on money, power, and life's comforts. Based on this criterion, not every life is obviously a success story. Some people feel left behind by the system. They are alienated(疏远), because by definition they see themselves as failures. Moreover, the structured work-oriented daily life in the USA may contribute to a setting in which many persons find themselves alone and lonely. This applies especially to traditional families in which men are employed and women raise children and take care of household chores. These families, especially the women, experience a critical turning point in their liveswhen their children, one-by-one, reach college age and leave home. A more permanent separation follows when the children start their own lives. The lively home of the past is suddenly transformed into a grave full of silence.Alienation, loneliness, boredom, monotony of routines can have "robotizing" influence on people. These personal situations are worsen in recent years by a perception of deeper problems in the system. The apparently democratic process - elections - can only change the representatives, but not this environment or system. The perception adds frustration, pessimism, and a sense of hopelessness. The high and rising rates of divorce, crime, homelessness, and alcohol and drug addiction in the USA may be studied from different perspectives, but collectively they represent the other side of the "American Dream." People who feel left behind and bored are motivated to find ways of passing time. Traditional solutions seem no longer satisfactory for all. Many people are attracted to astrology.1. In the passage, the author mainly discusses______.A. American dreamB. causes of astrology and superstitionsC. the cheating nature of superstition学生答案:B2. The sentence that man makes his destiny means______.A. Man can succeed through his own effortB. Man is destined to have certain resultC. Man can know his destiny through astrology学生答案:A3. High rates of divorce, crime, homelessness, and alcohol and drug addiction in theUSA show that ______.A. There is an urgent need to solve these problemsB. Some people just don‟t have …American Dream‟, so they are left behindC. Many people fail to realize their dreams, so they just give up trying学生答案:C。

2024年6月大学英语四级考试真题第四套全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇1University English Test Level 4June, 2024Version 4Part I Writing (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: How to Balance Study and Work. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below:1. 现在大学生不仅要学习还要工作,如何平衡学习和工作?2. 你的做法是?3. 你的看法How to Balance Study and WorkIn today's society, many college students need to balance between study and work, as it becomes increasingly difficult forthem to solely focus on their academic studies. However, finding this balance is crucial to their success and well-being.To balance study and work effectively, students should first prioritize their tasks and set clear goals. By dividing their time between study and work, they can better manage their responsibilities and avoid feeling overwhelmed. Additionally, students should create a schedule that allows them to allocate sufficient time for both academic studies and work commitments. This will help them stay organized and on track towards achieving their goals.In my own experience, I have found that setting priorities and creating a schedule have been instrumental in balancing study and work. By staying organized and disciplined, I have been able to successfully manage my academic workload while also excelling in my job. Moreover, I have learned the importance of self-care and taking breaks when needed to avoid burnout.Overall, balancing study and work requires careful planning and self-discipline. By prioritizing tasks, creating a schedule, and practicing self-care, students can effectively manage their responsibilities and achieve success in both areas. It is important for students to remember that finding this balance is a process that requires continuous effort and adaptability.Part II Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

In fact, Lincoln only grew a beard after receiving a letter from an (4) who suggested he would look better with one. The 11-year-old girl, Grace Bedell, wrote to Lincoln during the presidential campaign of 1860, advising him to grow a beard to improve his appearance. In response, Lincoln began growing his beard, and by the time he was elected president, he had (5) the full beard that would become his signature look.Lincoln's beard not only changed his appearance but also (6) his image in the eyes of the American people. In an era when beards were not common among politicians, Lincoln's beard helped to set him apart and make him more memorable to voters. His beard became a (7) tool in his political career, helping to shape his identity as a strong and capable leader.In conclusion, Lincoln's beard was not just a facial feature; it was a symbol of his character and leadership.

Studies have shown time and time again that children who are exposed to arts programs perform better in school, have higher test scores, and are more likely to attend college.Despite this knowledge, arts programs in schools are often the first to receive cuts when budgets are tight. School administrators and policymakers often view arts programs as non-essential, focusing instead on core subjects like math and science. This mentality severely limits the opportunities availableto children and deprives them of the numerous benefits that arts education can provide.Arts programs play a crucial role in fostering creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Through visual arts, music, dance, and theater, children are able to explore their creativity and express themselves in ways that may not be possible through traditional subjects. Additionally, arts programs help to develop important skills such as communication, teamwork, and self-confidence, which are essential for success in today's society.Furthermore, arts education has been shown to have a positive impact on students' academic performance. Studies have found that students who participate in arts programs tend to have higher grades, better attendance records, and improved social and emotional development. They are also more likely to excel in other subjects and demonstrate higher levels of creativity and critical thinking.In light of these benefits, it is clear that arts education should be considered a vital part of every child's education. By providing children with access to arts programs, we are not only enriching their lives but also preparing them for success in an increasingly complex and competitive world.Questions:9. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The benefits of arts programs in schoolsB. The impact of arts education on children's academic performanceC. The challenges facing arts programs in schoolsD. The importance of arts education in fostering creativity10. Why do school administrators and policymakers often cut arts programs?A. Because arts programs are non-essentialB. Because arts programs are too expensiveC. Because they believe core subjects are more importantD. Because they do not value arts education11. What skills can children develop through arts programs?A. Reading and writing skillsB. Discipline and obedienceC. Creativity and critical thinkingD. Physical fitness and coordination12. How do arts programs impact students' academic performance?A.

Unit 4: Flight 93: What I Never Know(第93次航班:我所无法理解的事)Introductory RemarksSince Sept. 11, 2001, the story of the passengers who fought their hijackers on United Airlines Flight 93 has become a model account of good thwarting evil. No one will ever know exactly what happened on that plane. But the last-minute calls made by some of the passengers give us a more complete account of the struggle of these everyday people. Here is one of the stories of courage and heroism.United Airlines Flight 93United Airlines Flight 93 was a Boeing 757 –222 flight that regularly flew from Newark International airport to San Francisco International airport, continuing on to Narita International Airport in Tokyo, Japan, on a different aircraft. On September 11, 2001, the aircraft on the flight was one of the four planes hijacked as part of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. It was the only one of the four planes that did not reach its intended target, instead crashing into the field in south Pennsylvania. It is believed that the pilot, flight attendants and some of the passengers fought back. The crash might have resulted from the hijackers either deliberately crashing the aircraft or losing control of it as they fought with the passengers.

Passage 1A Working Man Is a Healthy ManOK, you're only 30-years-old - or maybe even 40 or 50 - and are already fantasizing about retiring. You've got the (fill in the blank: stock options, trust fund, rich wife) in place and now the only question is when. What's the best time to devote yourself full-time to golf?A dreadful thought, perhaps - particularly if working for a living has never agreed with you. But epidemiological analyses of every variety have long concluded that men who retire early don't live as long as men who keep working late into geezerhood. Given the opportunity to fill our days with nothing but recreational activity, we get in trouble - get beaned by a shanked golf ball, fall off a fishing boat after a beer, too many, that kind of thing.Anything that removes us too much from the nurturing world of women is simply bad for our health. That's not to say that we don't suffer some ill effects from work. Men are the victims of more than 90 percent of all job-related accidents. Our highly competitive instincts also propel us to advance in our professions and climbing the ladder can be stressful (although interestingly, most CEO's are in excellent health; they're highly resilient, born leaders).Any job in which the tasks are slightly beyond our reach is going to cause stress - along with the high blood pressure, depressed immunity and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. But, then, raising children is stressful. Unemployment is really stressful. Vacations can be stressful. Driving in Milan is even a nightmare.The point is that, in terms of the picture, not working, whether by choice or not, is worse for us than working. This has always been true, but now there are some modern wrinkles on this truism that reflect changing gender roles.REW ARDS OF SUCCESSWork is good for men - especially if the proper conditions are in place. For instance - and this is not likely to sit well with social egalitarians - men who are married to "homemaker" wives are more likely to have upwardly mobile careers. That's the conclusion of the Cornell University Retirement and Well-Being Study, which also found the converse to be true: Men married to women who work full-time are more likely to have downwardly mobile careers. From other data, we know that a successful and accomplished man is a healthy and happy man.A recent Scottish study also points to the effects changing gender roles are having on men's working life. The increased number of women in both part-time and full-time work, the researchers say, may indirectly be responsible for rising rates of suicide and depression in men, at least in the British Isles. For men, the resultant loss of status as sole financial provider for the family and the perceived loss of social status could all be risk factors for depression.Family life also affects the benefits a man obtains from work. After having a baby, American men work longer hours, particularly if the child is a boy."We can only guess that having a son increases the value of marriage and family for men," says Shelly Lundberg, a psychologist at the University of Washington, an economics professor who did the research. Using data from the U.S. Panel Study of Income Dynamics1, he found that the birth of a first son generated an average increase in a man's work time of84 hours every year after the boy's birth - the equivalent of more than two additional weeks on the job. Men added only 31 hours after having a daughter. They also discovered a "fatherhood premium" that raised men's hourly wages by about 5 percent every time they fathered a child.RETIREResearch repeatedly has shown that a working family man with more disposable income is a happier, healthier man.Still not convinced? The findings of people who study retirement suggest some good reasons not to retire. For one thing, newly retired men experience more marital conflict than non-retired men. Your wife simply finds it stressful to wonder whether you've been beaned by a golf ball or bobbing in the ocean next to your empty beer can.The good news is that you can regain whatever you may have lost by retiring - and then going back to work. Psychologists Jungmeen E. Kim and Phyllis Moen of Cornell found that men who retire often gain a new lease on life when they decide to go back to work."Post-retirement employment appears to be beneficial for their psychologicalwell-being," says Kim. Those who are retired and re-employed report the highest morale and lowest depression. And men who are retired and not re-employed experience the lowest morale and most depression.Their study of 534 married men and women between 50 and 74 found the work-status links to morale and depression were regardless of age, income and health.So suck it up, buddy, and plan to work until you drop. It's one prescription for longevity that is known to work.(804 words) 1.

[题数:5;分数:10分;参考时间:10分0秒]题6 - 10Passage 2A Stateless Language That Europe Must EmbraceEnglish is already Europe's lingua franca and it's time for politicians and educators to acknowledge this.The language policy in the European Union1 is both ineffective and hypocritical, and its ideas of linguistic equality and multilingualism are costly and cumbersome illusions. Why have these illusions been kept up for so long? First, because the French with their traditionally superior position in Europe cannot accept the decline of their own linguistic power; second, because the politically-correct ideologies of some sociolinguists constantly fuel opposition against the idea of English as a European lingua franca; and third, because powerful translators' lobbies fight for their raison d'etre. In the name of the high ideal of linguistic equality a time-consuming, expensive and increasingly intractable translationmachinery is maintained that is doing its best to translate the illusion of equality into illusions of multilingualism and translatability.The translations produced in the world's largest translation bureau are taken as tokens for equality: what counts is that they exist, not what they are like - many EU officials doubt their accuracy and openly prefer to read the more reliable English and French originals. Also, the supposed linguistic equality in the EU is a relative one: some languages are more "equal" than others, and minority languages inside the member states do not count at all.The EU's ostensible multilingualism sets it apart from other international organisations. Instead of having opted for a "workable" number of working languages, all the official languages of the member states were given equal status. For a smooth functioning of the EU institutions, however, whose legislation ordinary people do not understand anyway, the use of English as a lingua franca would be infinitely better.English is particularly suitable as Europe's lingua franca because of its functional flexibility and spread across the world, and because English is already "de-nativised" to a large extent: the global number of non-native speakers is now substantially larger than its native speakers (about 4:1). English is no longer "owned" by its native speakers because acculturation and nativisation processes have produced a remarkable diversification of the English language into many non-native varieties.The point is that we can no longer say that English is one monolithic, "hegemonic" voice, it is a diversity of different voices. The multiplicity of voices behind English as a lingua franca implies that differences in interactional norms between speakers using English as a language for communication remain unaltered. And it is this deep diversity in the use of English by speakers with different mother tongues that invalidates the claim that English is an imperialist adversary, an eliminating "killer language" - which English, we may ask?Is it those localised, regionalised or otherwise appropriated varieties of English whose speakers creatively conduct pragmatic and cultural shifts? Surely not. Arguments such as the ones brought forward by the anti-English league are simply outdated. The Empire has Struck back already. Non-native speakers of English have created their own discourse norms and genres. And they do this out of their own free will, happily ignoring the "linguistic domination" ascribed to them. In other words there is no didactic-linguistic replay of formerly colonial and militaristic means.English as a lingua franca is nothing more than a useful tool: it is a "language for communication", a medium that is given substance with the different national, regional, local and individual cultural identities its speakers bring to it. English itself does not carry such identities, and it is not a "language for identification". And because of the variety of functional uses of global English, English has also a great potential for promoting international understanding. Its different speakers must always work out a common behavioural and intercultural basis.Paradox as this may seem, the very spread of English can motivate speakers of other languages to insist on their own local language for identification, for binding them emotionally to their own cultural and historical tradition. There is no need to set up anold-fashioned dichotomy between local languages and English as the "hegemonic aggressor": there is a place for both, because they fulfill different functions. To deny this is to upholdoutdated concepts of monolingual societies and individuals.Using English as a lingua franca in Europe does not inhibit linguistic diversity, and it unites more than it divides, simply because it may be "owned" by all Europeans - not as a cultural symbol, but a means of enabling understanding.(875 words) 6. Why are the translators against English as Europe's lingua franca?____[A] They want to fight for linguistic equality and multilingualism.[B] They want to maintain a time-consuming, expensive translation machinery.[C] They want to maintain the existence of their profession.[D] They want to keep the current positions of various languages in Europe.7. The author thinks that the diversities of English used in European countries can be used as a proof to show that ____.[A] the differences in interactional norms between speakers using English for communication is unchanged[B] the localised or regionalised varieties of English have brought cultural shifts[C] English is an imperialist aggressor, an eliminating "killer language"[D] non-native speakers of English may give up their own language when using English as a lingua franca.8. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?____[A] The use of English can change other European languages, gradually destroying their identities.[B] The use of English can change the structural and discourse conventions in other European languages.[C] The spread of English can promote speakers of other languages to find a common behavioral and intercultural basis[D] The spread of English can motivate speakers of other languages to insist on their own local language for identification.9. The word "uphold" (Line 5, Para. 9) most probably means "____."[A] refuse[B] support[C] raise[D] defeat10. What is the author's purpose in writing this article?____[A] To show that translations are taken as tokens for linguistic equality.[B] To emphasize that EU's multilingualism sets it apart from other organizations.[C] To argue that English should be used as a lingua franca in Europe.[D] To explain that English is one monolithic, "hegemonic" voice.选词填空Directions:Fill in the blanks with the words given below.

Mitochondrial (粒线体的) DNA, found in the cells of both males and females, is passed down through the mother's lineage. Y-chromosomes (染色体), which are 31. Which of the following exists only in the cells of males? ____[A] Mitochondrial DNA.[B] X-chromosomes.[C] Y-chromosomes.found only in the cells of males, can be usedto trace the roots of the father's side of the family. By comparing cheek-cell DNA to a worldwide database of ethnic groups, Jackson's team can reveal the donors' links to Africa. But Africa has the longest and most diverse genetic history of any continent, which makes pinpointing a person's specific region of origin using only the cheek cell an extremely difficult task. And Jackson warns against overrating the DNA-reading process in general. "It will probably be the most powerful technology for identifying human beings, but it was never meant to be used as a stand-alone tool," he cautions. "DNA is not a magic bullet." When he was examining his own mitochondrial DNA, for example, Jackson had the benefit of a strong oral history from his mother's side as well as a long record of his father's family at St. Luke's Episcopal Church — both of which made piecing together his lineage easier.Still, DNA technology might be an innovative tool when it comes to luring African Americans to the field of biology. "The number of African American scientists is so small that we want to use the project as a way of interesting young kids of color during the years when they're establishing for themselves what they want to be in life," says Jackson, who believes interest in being a scientist peaks by the fifth grade. "By the time they get to high school, science isn't even on their radar screen."No one expects the Roots Project to turn all children into scientists, but Jackson is confident that it will spark students' interest in science, biology, and the genetic underpinnings of their ancestry. (355 words)[D] Check cell.32. The word "overrating" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ____.[A] putting too high a value on[B] failing to see or notice[C] setting something aside without consideration[D] making something weak33. According to Jackson, DNA technology can be used to ____.[A] trace the roots of the father's side only[B] help identify the origin of different people[C] reveal the doner's link to their mother's side only[D] examine African-Americans' oral history34. By saying "DNA is not a magic bullet"( Para. 2), Jackson means ____.[A] DNA is not a powerful tool to solve every problem[B] DNA is not a bullet used by a magician[C] DNA is not applicable to all persons in the world[D] DNA is not a useful tool at all35. Which of the following is true in Jackson's opinion? ____[A] The aim of the Root Project is to turn every child into a scientist.[B] The number of African American scientists is small because of their DNA.[C] DNA technology will controlchildren's life plan.[D] DNA technology can make children interested in science。
第一套B D B A B AC BD C A D (好象前5题之中还差一个)BD ADCCaging healthy old age meant proper c and e start it later ExtendedB A DC AD A C B CHealthy AgingMaybe it sounds odd, but it’s true that the moment we are born, we are marching towards death. Researchers suggest that, to attain healthy aging, we should stop smoking, eat more fruits, vegetables and have sports often.In my view, apart from the above-mentioned methods, we need further to correct our former understanding of aging. For many years, people tend to refrain from the thought of aging because that has always been associated with such negative meanings as weakness and impotence. Consequently, in order to appear “young”, people always do somethi ng that they believe only young people would do, for example, staying up very late days on a row. However, such activities often cause heavy burden both on people’ physical and mental health.In conclusion, so long as we have a mature attitude towards the aging, attend to our eating habit and have sports from time to time, we are certain to attain the healthy aging.B D B D B B D D A AD C B C A B Afive yearsthe General Assenblythe U.S.第二套1-5 CBBCD6-10 CCBBC11-15 DAACB16-18 CDB19.how-to-get-in 20.follow 21.hardest 22.would rather 23.toughest 24.in general 25.extracurricular 26.to the extent 27.tell 28.rather than29-33 BDAAC34-38DCABAHuge amounts of people wondered if there is really a secret fomular for admissions.However,asJacques Steinberg says,there certainly isno formular,but some common factors that affect your admissions do exists,like your taking the hardest courses and so on.For me, a good student's qualifications are not all about good results of studying.Good results can illustrate nothing but you're good at examinations.If you want to be a good student,you should have guts to try the hardest class,and have the constant will to concentrate on something.What's more,a good student first should be a decent person.It means a good student need a nice personality.In short, a good student is not what peole traditionally regard as.It needs more than high results.50-54 DAACC55-59 DAACB60-64 BACAD65-66 BC67.much more energy is wanted as heat68.making social changebined heat and power第三套1-5 C A C D D 6-10 A D D A C11-15 B D A D C 16-18 C A B19 following 20 representatives21 clean up 22 making changes23 take 24 spokesman 25 creates26 install 27 cut 28 deadline29 C 30 B 31 D 32 B 33 A 34 C 35 A 36 B 37 C 38 D口语原文39.

Air quality has improved quite dramatically in the U.S. over about the last 30 years, since the Clean Air Act, the federal law, was enacted.Although the representatives of some plants are making effort to change this state, this problem hasn't been resolved yet. The reason is that controlling emissions takes much money, and new technology. For example, just one piece of equipment to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions can cost 100 million dollars each to install, which gives much pressure to the finance of an entrepreneur.In a word, it’s not enough of the government to promulgate a law to control the pollution,financial and technological support should be attached much importance to.。
