专业英语四级（阅读）模拟试卷113(题后含答案及解析)题型有：1. 2.SECTION AIn this section there are several passages followed by ten multiple-choice questions. For each question, there are four suggested answers marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Choose the one that you think is the best answer.How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion. Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boy’s hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull. What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats, for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more American men followed his example. There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion. In the 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War Two, they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter until the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again. Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “untidy” look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashions of the top fashion houses. At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choose our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater; and it would be discourteous to visit some distinguished scholar looking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depressed if you don’t look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and you’ll see that no one else does either!1．The author thinks that people are ______.A．satisfied with their appearanceB．concerned about appearance in old ageC．far from neglecting what is in fashionD．reluctant to follow the trends in fashion正确答案：C解析：根据文章第1段可知，我们当中几乎没有人有胆量忽视时尚潮流，这和C的意义相符，故为答案。

be at risk of hearing loss as a result of(32)________to unsafe levels of recreational noise,according to a recent World Health Organization report.To make matters worse,this kind of hearing loss doesn’t show up on(33)________tests. Researchers are calling it a hidden epidemic.“We think this problem is(34)________prevalent,but it’s difficult to measure because the tools we have available today are not sensitive enough,”says Konstantina Stankovic,an auditory neuroscientist and surgeon at Massachusetts Eye and Ear,and Harvard Medical School,in Boston.Stankovic is now working with colleagues at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne to develop imaging(35)________that would allow us to see this kind of neural damage in living brains.This could help with early diagnosis.Others are developing drugs that

patrons.Stankovic thinks more will need to be done to change(40)________accepted norms around recreational noise.“I think it will require a public health effort similar to the efforts for limiting smoking,because of the peer pressure associated with loud music and noisy environments,”she says.PARTⅤREADING COMPREHENSION[35MIN] SECTION A MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONSIn this section there are three passages followed by ten multiple choice questions.For each question,there are four suggested answers marked[A],[B],[C]and[D].Choose the one that you think is the best answer and mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET TWO.PASSAGE ONE(1)What is the nature of the scientific attitude,the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics,biology,chemistry,geology,engineering,medicine or any other science?(2)We all know that science plays an important role in the societies in which we live.Many people believe, however,that our progress depends on two different aspects of science.The first of these is the application of the machines,products and systems of applied knowledge that scientists and technologists develop.Through technology,science improves the structure of society and helps man to gain increasing control over his environment.(3)The second aspect is the application by all members of society of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work.(4)What are these special methods of thinking and acting?First of all,it seems that a successful scientist is full of curiosity—he wants to find out how and why the universe works.He usually directs his attention towards problems which he notices have no satisfactory explanation,and his curiosity makes him look for underlying relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected.Moreover,he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.(5)He is a good observer,accurate,patient and objective and applies logical thought to the observations he makes.He utilizes the facts he observes to the fullest extent.For example,trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum.(6)He is skeptical—he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available—and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth.Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively to verify them.(7)Furthermore,he is not only critical of the work of others,but also of his own,since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.(8)Lastly,he is highly imaginative since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete.Furthermore,he needs imagination if he wants to make hypotheses of how processes work and how events take place.(9)These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.41.Many people believe that science helps society to progress through________.[A]applied knowledge[B]more than one aspect[C]technology only[D]the use of machines42.Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about curiosity?[A]It gives the scientist confidence and pleasure in work.[B]It gives rise to interest in problems that are unexplained.[C]It leads to efforts to investigate potential connections.[D]It encourages the scientist to look for new ways of acting.43.According to the passage,a successful scientist would not________.[A]easily believe in unchecked statements[B]easily criticize others’research work[C]always use his imagination in work[D]always use evidence from observationPASSAGE TWO(1)Over the past several decades,the U.S.,Canada,and Europe have received a great deal of media and even research attention over unusual phenomena and unsolved mysteries.These include UFOs as well as sightings and encounters with“nonhuman creatures”such as Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster.Only recently has Latin America begun to receive some attention as well.Although the mysteries of the Aztec,Mayan,and Inca civilizations have been known for centuries,now the public is also becoming aware of unusual,paranormal phenomena in countries such as Peru.(2)The Nazca“lines”of Peru were discovered in the1930s.These lines are deeply carved into a flat,stony plain,and form about300intricate pictures of animals such as birds,a monkey,and a lizard.Seen at ground level, the designs are a jumbled senseless mess.The images are so large that they can only be viewed at a height of1,000 feet—meaning from an aircraft.Yet there were no aircraft in300B.C.,when it is judged the designs were made. Nor were there then,or are there now,any nearby mountain ranges from which to view them.So how and why did the native people of Nazca create these marvelous designs?One answer appeared in1969,when the German researcher and writer Erich von Daniken proposed that the lines were drawn by extraterrestrials as runways for their aircraft.The scientific community did not take long to scoff at and abandon von Daniken’s theory.Over the years several other theories have been put forth,but none has been accepted by the scientific community.(3)Today there is a new and heightened interest in the Nazca lines.It is a direct result of the creation of the Internet.Currently there are over60sites dedicated to this mystery from Latin America’s past,and even respected scientists have joined the discussion through e-mail and chat rooms.(4)Will the Internet help explain these unsolved mysteries?Perhaps it is a step in the right direction.44.Which of the following statements is INCORRECT?[A]Latin America has long received attention for unusual phenomena.[B]Public attention is now directed towards countries like Peru.[C]Public interest usually focuses on North America and Europe.[D]Some ancient civilizations have unsolved mysteries.45.According to the passage,the Nazca lines were found________.[A]in mountains[B]in stones[C]on animals[D]on a plain46.We can infer from the passage that the higher the lines are seen,the____the images they present.[A]smaller[B]larger[C]clearer[D]brighterPASSAGE THREE(1)Graduation speeches are a bit like wedding toasts.A few are memorable.The rest tend to trigger such thoughts as,“Why did I wear such uncomfortable shoes?”(2)But graduation speeches are less about the message than the messenger.Every year a few colleges and universities in the U.S.attract attention because they’ve managed to book high-profile speakers.And,every year, the media report some of these speakers’wise remarks.(3)Last month,the following words of wisdom were spread:(4)“You really haven’t completed the circle of success unless you can help somebody else move forward.”(Oprah Winfrey,Duke University).(5)“There is no way to stop change;change will come.Go out and give us a future worthy of the world we all wish to create together.”(Hillary Clinton,New York University).(6)“This really is your moment.History is yours to bend.”(Joe Biden,Wake Forest University).(7)Of course,the real“get”of the graduation season was first lady Michelle Obama’s appearance at the University of California,Merced.“Remember that you are blessed,”she told the class of2009,“Remember that in exchange for those blessings,you must give something back...As advocate and activist Marian Wright Edelman says,‘Service is the rent we pay for living...it is the true measure,the only measure of success’,”(8)Calls to service have a long,rich tradition in these speeches.However,it is possible for a graduation speech to go beyond cliche and say something truly compelling.The late writer David Foster Wallace’s2005 graduation speech at Kenyon College in Ohio talked about how to truly care about other people.It gained something of a cult after it was widely circulated on the Internet.Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs’address at Stanford University that year,in which he talked about death,is also considered one of the best in recent memory.(9)But when you’re sitting in the hot sun,fidgety and freaked out,do you really want to be lectured about the big stuff?Isn’t that like trying to maintain a smile at your wedding reception while some relative gives a toast that amounts to“marriage is hard work”?You know he’s right;you just don’t want to think about it at that particular moment.In fact,as is the case in many major life moments,you can’t really manage to think beyond the blisters your new shoes are causing.(10)That may seem anticlimactic.But it also gets to the heart of one of life’s greatest,saddest truths:that our most“memorable”occasions may elicit the fewest memories.It’s probably not something most graduation speakers would say,but it’s one of the first lessons of growing up.47.The graduation speeches mentioned in the passage are related to the following themes EXCEPT________.[A]death[B]success[C]service[D]generosity48.It is implied in the passage that at great moments people fail to________.[A]remain clear-headed[B]keep good manners[C]remember others’words[D]recollect specific detailsPASSAGE FPUR(1)Cultural rules determine every aspect of food consumption.Who eats together defines social units.For example,in some societies,the nuclear family is the unit that regularly eats together.The anthropologist Mary Douglas has pointed out that,for the English,the kind of meal and the kind of food that is served relate to the kinds of social links between people who are eating together.She distinguishes between regular meals,Sunday meals when relatives may come,and cocktail parties for acquaintances.The food served symbolizes the occasion and reflects who is present.For example,only snacks are served at a cocktail party.It would be inappropriate to serve a steak or hamburgers.The distinctions among cocktails,regular meals,and special dinners mark the social boundaries between those guests who are invited for drinks,those who are invited to dinner,and those who come toa family meal.In this example,the type of food symbolizes the category of guest and with whom it is eaten.(2)In some New Guinea societies,the nuclear family is not the unit that eats together.The men take their meals in a men’s house,separately from their wives and children.Women prepare and eat their food in their own houses and take the husband’s portion to the men’s house.The women eat with their children in their own houses. This pattern is also widespread among Near Eastern societies.(3)Eating is a metaphor that is sometimes used to signify marriage.In many New Guinea societies,like that of the Lesu on the island of New Ireland in the Pacific and that of the Trobriand Islanders,marriage is symbolized by the couple’s eating together for the first time.Eating symbolizes their new status as a married couple.In U.S. society,it is just the reverse.A couple may go out to dinner on a first date.(4)Other cultural rules have to do with taboos against eating certain things.In some societies,members of a clan,a type of kin(family)group,are not allowed to eat the animal or bird that is their totemic ancestor.Since they believe themselves to be descended from that ancestor,it would be like eating that ancestor or eating themselves.(5)There is also an association between food prohibitions and rank,which is found in its most extreme form in the caste system of India.A caste system consists of ranked groups,each with a different economic specialization. In India,there is an association between caste and the idea of pollution.Members of highly ranked groups can be polluted by coming into contact with the bodily secretions,particularly saliva,of individuals of lower-ranked castes. Because of the fear of pollution,Brahmans and other high-ranked individuals will not share food with,not eat from the same plate as,not even accept food from an individual from a low-ranking caste.49.According to the passage,who will NOT eat together?[A]The English.[B]Americans on their first date.[C]Men and women in Near Eastern societies.[D]Newly-weds on the island of New Ireland.50.According to the passage,eating together indicates all the following EXCEPT________.[A]the type of food[B]social relations[C]marital status[D]family tiesSECTION B SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONSIn this section there are five short answer questions based on the passages in Section A.Answer the questions with NO more than TEN words in the space provided on ANSWER SHEET TWO.PASSAGE ONE51.What does the passage mainly discuss?PASSAGE TWO52.Why are people increasingly interested in the Nazca lines?PASSAGE THREE53.According to the passage,what kind of memories do most graduation speeches tend to recall?54.What is“one of the first lessons of growing up”?PASSAGE FOUR55.What does the passage mainly discuss?PARTⅥWRITING[45MIN] It was recently reported in a newspaper that six students who shared a dorm at a local university hired a cleaner to do laundry and cleaning once a week.And each of them paid her60yuan a month.This has led to a heated debate as to whether college students should hire cleaners.Write on ANSWER SHEET THREE a composition of about200words on the following topic:Should College Students Hire Cleaners?You are to write in three parts.In the first part,state clearly what your view is.In the second part,support your view with appropriate reasons.In the second part,support your view with appropriate reasons.In the last part,bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.Marks will be awarded for content,organization,grammar and appropriateness.Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.—THE END—PARTⅡLISTENING COMPRENSIONSECTION A TALK下列各题必须使用黑色字迹签字笔在答题区域内作答，超出红色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效。

专业英语四级写作分类模拟380WRITING1. When people try to express their views on the importance of gifts, some might say that those without talent should not be supposed to learn a foreign language. What do you think? Write a composition in NO LESS THAN 200 words on the following topic:Is Talent an Important Factor in Learning a Foreign Language?You are to write in three parts.In the first part, state specifically what your opinion is.In the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your opinion.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or make a summary.Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.答案：[范文]Is Talent an Important Factor in Learning a Foreign Language?"Genius is 1% talent and 99% hard work." The saying eloquently points out that the importance of diligence outweighs that of talent. In learning a foreign language, I think it is still true: talent is less important than hard work.Hard work keeps us on the ground, while talent tends to make us self-satisfied and lazy. To master a foreign language, we need to have sufficient exposure to the language, which means hours and hours of effort put into it. We might listen to 10,000 hours of materials until we have no difficulty in communicating with a native speaker. We might read extensively before we are able to read native newspapers with ease "Practice makes perfect." This aged-old saying is particularly true in learning a foreign language. Talented people may be less inclined to sharpen their linguistic skills in a hardheaded manner. They would presume that they will get the same result with half of the effort, so they spend less time in reading and listening. At the first stage, probably talent could help them memorize a word or mimic a native pronunciation much quicker than the less talented people. But ultimately, their tricks will run out of effect, because hard effort cannot be replaced by mere talent.In conclusion, the best scenario is to have both talent and hard work. If not, we should work harder. As Thomas Edison said, "There is no substitute for hard work".[解答] 本题属于“立场选择型”作文，涉及的题材是“文化教育”。
