2011年大学英语四级模拟测试三参考答案新2011年大学英语四级模拟测试三参考答案Part I Writing (15%)Should Parents Send Their Kids to Art ClassesNowadays, many parents send their kids to art classes in order to cultivate their artistic talent. They make their children study painting, play the piano, dance, and so on, greatly expecting them to be successful and famous one day.People hold different opinions when it comes to this phenomenon. Some people stand by the parents who send their kids to art classes. First, they believe art classes can broaden their kids’ horizons and let them acquire new knowledge in a variety of fields. Second, they think that attending art classes is inevitably beneficial to their kids’ character development. However, other people don’t think there is any need to send kids to art classes. In their opinions, kids even in primary schools have a tight schedule, and are always burdened with their homework. In addition, some children have no interest in art. They can hardly do as well as their parents expect them to do.From my perspective, parents should be patient to listen to their children’s opinions. Children know what they like and what they dislike. As parents, they should help their kids choose the proper classes, instead of forcing them to do what they are not interested in. Only in this way, can the children have a happier childhood and a brighter future.1-7 BDCABBD 8. risk of injury 9. stretching 10. fibromyalgia 11-18 CDCBCBBD 19-25 BBABABC26-28 DBC 29-32 CCDB 33-35 DAC36. various 37. walks 38. equal 39. promotion 40. fortnightly41. unfeasible 42. choice 43. unknown44.

The American Academy of Medicine suggested last week that doctors work with parents to evaluate how much TV kids watch and what they see, what video and computer games they play, which websites they visit on the Internet, whether they view R-rated videos without the company of their parents, what music they like and what books they read. Doctors are worried that kids who spend too muc h time in front of the tube don’t get enough exercise and can become overweight. The academy is also concerned that the messages kids get from entertainment media can make them more violent and sexually active.The academy recommends that children under age two not watch any TV. “Children need activities to stimulate the brain during the first two years of life,”says Dr. Miriam Baron, who chairs the academy’s committee on public education. “They need feedback and socialization.”Older children, she says, should watch TV in a common area. Their bedrooms should be “electronic media-free”zones where they can have a quiet place to read, study, play or just relax.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q26. What unusual question may doctors ask when giving kids a checkup next time?Q27. The academy suggests that children under age two_____.Q28. According to the report, children’s bedrooms should____.Passage TwoMy first semester of college was the worst I’ve been through. I had made plans during the summer to share an apartment with t wo of my close friends from high school. But before we moved in, problems started developing.One of the two girls I was to share an apartment with was going to work instead of going to college. However, a week before we were to move in, she found out that she didn’t get the job. She was forced to live at home and look for work. Therest of the two of us lasted for a month and then agreed that we couldn’t make it with the higher monthly rent payments. I started looking around.I found another apartment and the rent wasn’t bad. The place was noisy, but it was the best I could afford for the time. However, one day when I returned, there was smoke coming from the back of the house. The cottage had caught fire, and my room was a burned mess. I was once more out of a place to stay.I finally gave up looking around and moved home. I had to drive forty miles to school every day, so I almost spent as much on gas as I would have on lodging. I was very bored. I almost lost the will to study. It had been really a bad semester.Q29. What was the speaker’s plan before her firs t college semester began?Q30. What was the first lodging problem the speaker encountered?Q31. Why did the speaker move back home finally?Q32. Why does the speaker think her first semester of college was the worst?Passage ThreeThe French are at heart traditionalists. Though they dearly love revolutions, they disapprove of shifts in behavior. Everything must be done properly, an expression that applies equally to getting married and getting drunk, stuffing a duck and filling in a form, addressing an envelope and addressing a teacher. There is an established order of things, and the order was established by the French.The desire to maintain standards is best seen on any holiday in the summer. Where the Italians, the British, and even the Germans, relax sufficiently to leave there faces unshaven, ormealtimes become irregular, or dresses become strange, the French behave as though they were still under the microscope of real life.French men and women take two hours over their morning making up. Watch any Frenchman at a campsite in the summer and see how long he spends shaving, trimming his moustache, and on general showers.Wives cook three-course lunches which they serve to their husbands in the stuffy heat at little tables with linen napkins and polished dishware. The white wine must stand in an ice bucket. Everything is correct---the bread, the cheese, the sauce.Mr., eats greedily, Mrs. stands behind him, and a little to the side, nodding happily. She will do the washing-up immediately after the meal is finished. All will be neat and tidy before any other activity is even considered.Q33. Which people are keen on order, according to the passage?Q34. What will the wife do after the meal?Q35. What is characteristic of French people’s lives according to the passage?Section CIt is often through good dinners that one makes friends. In Japan, there are (36) various “Dining Groups” or “Wine Groups”, formed by people of different (37) walks of life but of more or less (38) equal standing, having as their common object, good living and the (39) promotion of friendship. They meet weekly or (40) fortnightly or on the birthday of one of the members, who play host in turn. As a rule, the dinner is held in one’s own home, unless for some reasons this is (41) unfeasible, in which case it can be held in a (42) choice restaurant. On eachoccasion, the host may include a couple of guests (43) unknown to the others. Thus one makes new friends and keeps old friendship in constant repair. Sometimes, similar feasts are held for the sake of art and literature. (44) Though the primary object of these meetings is different, through cooking, fellowship and understanding are enhanced. As to the part that delicious food can play in smoothing negotiation, this must be a common experience of every man of affairs. (45) Millions change hands in commercial transactions yearly as a result of a fine lunch or a fine dinner. “Will you lunch with me?” is a familiar phrase in the business world either in prefacing(作开场白) a successful deal or in celebrating one. (46) No great event in history ever happened without its being previously planned ordetermined at a feast.。

2011级大学英语四级考试模拟试题参考答案Key to Model Test OnePart I WritingUniversities Taking DonationsIt is common now for people to give and universities to take donations. Many universities, especially those elite ones, can receive millions from the individuals and companies every year. For example, Zhejiang University was reported to have accepted more than 520 million yuan in 2010 from its alumni.People have different views on universities‟ taking donations. Some believe that more funds will contribute to a better development of the university, and donations can aid students who come from low-income families. Others, however, argue that colleges shouldn‟t accept endowment, since the governmental funds allocated to universities are enough for their development. They also point out that many universities fail to make good use of the donations and most money don‟t go to poor students.In my opinion, taking donations benefits not only the university but also its students. Even if most donations are not given to poor students directly, they help update teaching facilities and improve the school environment, which will benefit the students indirectly. Therefore, universities‟ taking donations should be advocated.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. C)2. B)3. D)4. A)5. D)6. B)7.

Have you posted an advertisement in the local newspaper?Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?13. W: Are you listening to me? You are not really with you at the moment.

What‟s up?W: I have this great job lined up to manage a clothing store at the mall.M: Oh, say in detail, please.W: Well, one of the professors in my department just told me about a summer practice program that is available. She thinks I might be able to practice in the office at the Wayfarer Hotel here in town.M: That sounds like a great opportunity, too. Why not take advantage of it?W: I‟d love to, especially since I‟m studying hotel management. It would be a great way to get some practical experience in my field.M: And you never know, it might lead to something with them after graduation. They‟re one of the biggest hotel chains in the area.W: You‟re right. But the problem is that I wouldn‟t be making nearly as much money as I would be working in the clothing store. Not to mention the discount I‟d get on clothes there.M: How much money can you get from your practice work?W: Very little money. But I can get a free room and board for the summer.M: Well, if I were you, I‟d take it anyway. You can always get a job during the school year next year to make a few extra bucks.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. Why does Denise like to talk to Ken?20. Why might the summer practice be a good opportunity for Denise?21. What’s the main disadvantage of the summer practice for Denise?22. What does Ken suggest Denise do?Conversation TwoM: Hello, this is John Burns from the Top Company Ltd. I‟m phoning to return Ms. Thompson‟s call.W: Oh, hello, Mr. Burns. This is Susan Thompson speaking. I‟m glad you ring back so soon. There‟s a serious problem, I‟m afraid. You know that order for 500 cases of Top Whiskey we put recently?M: Oh, yes. I saw to it myself. What‟s the problem? Hasn‟t it arrived?W: Well, in a way, but it‟s stuck at the customs. There‟s something wrong with the declaration, it seems. Some kind of omission or error.M: Oh, really? That‟s strange. Do you know what it is?W: Well, I only heard that some of the details were incomplete and the customs can‟t let the consignment through. M: Ms. Thompson, I‟ll tell you what I‟ll do. Our forwarding agents are handling this delivery and they‟re generally very reliable. Er, let me just get on to them.W: Yes, if you would. And can you let me know as soon as possible when I can have the Whiskey? Time‟s rather short and our customers are waiting for the wine, you know.M: Of course. I‟ll see to it, Ms. Thompson, and if at all possible, you‟ll get a call today.W: Well, getting the delivery today would suit me better. Oh, one other thing, I‟m out of the office after 12 o‟clock.If you call me after this time, would you leave a message with our switchboard operator? I‟ll tell her to expect your call.M: Yes, I spoke to her before. I‟ll get things moving as quickly as I can.W: Right. Thanks. Goodbye then, Mr. Burns.M: Goodbye. You‟ll be hearing from us very soon.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. What do we know from the woman’s complaint?24. What does the man say about their forwarding agents?25. What is the man asked to do at the end of the conversation?Section BPassage OneI was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother‟s words as if it were yesterday —“Carol, I don‟t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him.”AIDS wasn‟t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father‟s other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.We couldn‟t afford all the necessary medication for him, and because dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldn‟t even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost. The teacher‟s words were drowned as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.I did not share my burden with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the non-profit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn‟t want to call attention to AIDS. I do.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What does Carol tell us about her father?27. Why did Carol keep her father’s disease a secret?28. Why did Carol write the passage?Passage TwoTo get a driver‟s license, you must take a series of tests. The first test is the vision test. This test checks your eyes to see if you have to wear glasses when you drive. The second test is a written test that checks your knowledge of highway and traffic regulations. You can prepare for this test by studying a booklet that you can get at the driver‟s license office. After you pass the written test, you receive an instruction permit. This permit allows you to practice driving with an experienced driver. The last test you have to take is a road test. This checks your driving ability. If you pass it, you will receive your driver‟s license.When you go to the driver‟s license office to take the road test, you must provide your own vehicle. First, the license examiner checks the mechanical condition of your car. Then, the examiner gets into the car with you and asksyou to drive in regular traffic. While you are driving, the examiner tests you for such things as starting, stopping, turning, backing up, and parking. If you can‟t control the car properly, or if you violate a traffic regulation while you are taking the test, you fail the examination. You will have to practice driving more until you take the road test again and pass it.Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. What does the second test check?30. What does the instruction permit allow you to do?31. What do we learn about the road test?32. Who are the most probable readers of the passage?Passage ThreeMargaret, married with two small children, has been working for the last seven years as a night cleaner, cleaning offices in a big building.She trained as a nurse, but had to give it up when her elder child became seriously ill. “I would have liked to go back to it, but the shifts are all wrong for me, as I have to be home to get the children up and off to school.”So she works as a cleaner instead, from 9 p.m. till 6 a.m. five nights a week for just ￡90, before tax and insurance. “It‟s better than it was last year, but I still think that people who work unsocial hours should get a bit extra.”The hours she‟s chosen to work mean that she sees plenty of the children, but very little of her husband. However, she doesn‟t think that puts any pressure on their relationship.Her work isn‟t physically very hard, but it‟s not exactly pleasant, either. “I do get angry with people who leave their offices like a place for raising pigs. If they realized people like me have to do it, perhaps they‟d be a bit more careful.”The fact that she‟s working all night doesn‟t worry Margaret at all. Unlike some dark buildings at night, the building where she works is fully lit, and the women work in groups of three. “Since I‟ve got to be here, I try to enjoy myself — and I usually do, because of the other girls. We all have a good laugh, so the time never drags.”Another challenge Margaret has to face is the reaction of other people when she tells them what she does for a living. “They think you‟re a cleaner because you don‟t know how to read and write,” said Margaret. “I used to think what my parents would say if they knew what I‟d been doing, but I don‟t think that way any more. I don‟t dislike the work though I can‟t say I‟m mad about it.”Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. Why did Margaret quit her job as a nurse?34. Why does Margaret get angry with people who work in the office?35. How does Margaret feel when at work?Section CMany businesses, such as department stores, restaurants, hotels and airline companies, use a credit system for selling their products and (36) services. In a credit system, the seller (37) agrees to sell something to the buyer without (38) immediately receiving cash. The buyer (39) receives the goods or services immediately and (40) promises to pay for them later. This “buy-now-pay-later” credit system is quite old. People have been buying things on credit for centuries. But (41) nowadays people use credit cards. There are two types of credit cards. One type is (42) issued directly by a store to a customer. Many large department stores issue credit cards to their customers. The store credit card can be used to make (43) purchases only at a particular store. The other kind of credit card is issued by a credit company. (44) Credit cards from credit companies can be used to buy things almost anywhere. If you have a major credit card, you can buy airplane ticket, stay at hotels, and eat at restaurants with it. (45) Most large credit companies are connected to large banks. So if you want a credit card from a credit company, you generally have to make an application at a bank. (46) After an applicant receives a credit card, he or she can use the card to make purchases.Key to Model Test TwoPart I WritingPaying Kids for Chores?A rising proportion of parents pay their children to do chores around the house nowadays. For example, some parents will give their kids allowances if they clean the room, do laundry, set the table, or prepare simple food for the family.People differ on whether parents should pay their kids for doing housework. Supporters say tying kids‟ allowances to housework is a good way to teach kids accountability and responsibility. It also helps children learn about money and how it works. But critics of this approach say children should do routine housework for free. The reason is simple: chores are part of a family, and everyone does chores.Personally, I don‟t think parents should adopt the pay-for-work view. Paying kids to help out sends the wrong massage: they are entitled to freely have everything parents provide for them while the contributions they make to the family have to be paid for. It risks creating teenagers who would worship money and who are likely to drive a hard bargain just to take out the garbage.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. C)2. D)3. B)4. B)5.

What‟s wrong, John? Did you stay up very late last night?M: Oh, no. Well, you know, I‟ve been here for only a few days. In my home country, it is still late at night now. I am suffering from jet lag. It‟s so hard to overcome this.Q: What does the man mean?12. M: Hey, I‟ve rented a horror film from the shop near the college. Could you come over and enjoy it with me?W: You told me last night you‟re going to study this morning. Your plans are always good enough, yet you rarely carry them out.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?13. M: I can‟t believe I can‟t get a plane ticket for the summer holiday. I mean, it‟s only March.W: Well, you know I wouldn‟t worry about it too much. People cancel their reservations all the time.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?14. W: John‟s room was in a mess. It seemed that he had never cleaned it.M: This problem is not uncommon for a young man from home.Q: What does the man mean?15. M: I think I‟ll get my second-hand books at the Student Union this year. So many of the books we are using arethe same print.W: I hope you‟re not planning to take your time going there. They are usually snapped up within the first week.Q: What does the woman mean?16. M: You‟re going to make a trip to San Francisco, aren‟t you?W: Yes. But I haven‟t got the plane ticket yet. I‟m thinking of postponing the trip to next month since this is the busiest month for the airlines.Q: What do we know about the woman from this conversation?17. W: The bank near the supermarket opens on Sundays, quite different from the other banks in the same street.M: On Sundays people have time to go there. It is really convenient for people. Besides, they offer quite satisfactory service.Q: What does the man think of the bank?18. W: Did you go to see the doctor about your cough?M: The doctor said if I keep smoking it will increase my chance of having a heart attack or, lung disease. And I am thinking about quitting smoking as the problems seem to be quite serious.Q: What do we know about the man?Now you will hear the two long conversations.Conversation OneM: I really don‟t know what to do this summer. I can‟t afford to just sit around, and there don‟t seem to be any jobs available.W: Why don‟t you try house-sitting? Last summer my friend Margaret house-sat for the Dodds when they went away on vacation. Mr. Dodd hired Margaret to stay in their house because he didn‟t want it left empty.M: You mean the Dodds paid Margaret just to live in their house?W: It wasn‟t that easy. She had to mow the lawn and water the house plants. And when Eric house-sat for Dr. Cohen, he had to take care of her pets.M: House-sitting sounds like a good job. I guess it‟s a little like baby-sitting — except you‟re taking care of a house instead of children.W: The Student Employment Office still has a few jobs posted.M: Do I just have to fill out an application?W: Margaret and Eric had to interview with the home owners and provide three references each.M: That seems like a lot of trouble for a summer job.W: Well, the home owners want some guarantee that they can trust the house-sitter. You know, they want to make sure you‟re not the type who‟ll throw wild parties in their house, or move a group of friends in with you.M: House-sitters who do that sort of thing probably aren‟t paid then.W: Usually they‟re paid anyway just because the home owners don‟t want to make a fuss. But if the home owner reported it, then the house-sitter wouldn‟t be able to get another job. So why don‟t you apply?M: Yeah, I think I will.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What does the man want to do this summer?20. What did the Dodds do when they went away last summer?21. What is one responsibility the house-sitter probably wouldn’t have?22. How do home owners determine the reliability of a house-sitter?Conversation TwoM: So, you must have a lot of contact with overseas students in your work helping people coping with daily existence.W: Sometimes. You know the life of a social worker is not all wonderful and working to help people in their daily life. I have to spend a lot of time pushing paper, and writing reports too. But when I do get out, yeah, I see a lot of foreigners. And sometimes they come in because life in America has just beaten them down and they can‟t cope financially or emotionally.M: Really? I would think that they had a good support network in place, especially university students.W: They do have a network, and a variety of support groups, but these can‟t meet all of the students‟ needs. They can‟t help with paying bills, dealing with American neighbors and customs, fitting in, getting a driver‟s license, etc. They try, but very often the student has to figure out a lot of this stuff by himself. And if he or she is shy, they don‟t have the courage to ask other people, even other people from their nationality.M: So what are some of the things that overseas students struggle with?W: This might interest you, but they struggle with the food, especially Chinese. You know, they come here knowing that Americans love Chinese food so much. They think that there will be good restaurants with Chinese food that they love. But they get here and they are extremely surprised. Americans enjoy totally different flavors.M: So what do they do?W: If they‟re brave and curious, they look around and test all the restaurants. There is usually at least one restaurant in every town that has almost quality food.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. In which aspect does the woman help people in her work?24. Why do people come to the woman for help?25. How did Chinese students expect the American-made Chinese food before they came to the U.S?Section BPassage OneIt was the summer of 1965. DeLuca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for t he future. “I‟m going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” DeLuca recalls saying. “Buck said, yo u should open a sandwich shop.”That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After doing some resear ch, Buck wrote a check for $1,000. DeLuca rented a storefront in Connecticut, and when they couldn‟t cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1,000.But business didn‟t go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing poorly, but we didn‟t know how badly, because we didn‟t have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. They‟d meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, …We are so successful, we are opening a second store.‟” And they did — in the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.But the partners‟ learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliv er the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn‟t necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca says.And having a goal was also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down. You just have to keep working toward your goal,” DeLuca adds. DeLuca ended up founding Subway Sandwich, the multimillion-dollar restaurant chain.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What was DeLuca’s purpose in opening the first sandwich shop?27. What can we learn about DeLuca and Buck’s first shop?28. Why did DeLuca and Buck decide to open a second store?29. What contributes most to their success according to the speaker?Passage TwoSilence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness. In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and he fears silence more than anything else. Even his conversation is an attempt toprevent a fearful silence. If he is introduced to another person, and a number of pauses occur in the conversation, he regards himself as a failure. He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure.The aim of conversation is for the most part, to communicate ideas; it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito. But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person. Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people‟s ears. They have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel. At the end of an evening, during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time, they just prove themselves to be successful conversationalists.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.30. What is people’s purpose in making conversation according to the speaker?31. What do people usually talk about to their neighbors according to the passage?32. What is the speaker’s purpose in giving this speech?Passage ThreeThroughout history man has changed his physical environment in order to improve his way of life. With the tools of technology he has altered many physical features of the earth. He has transformed wood lands into farmland, and made lakes and reservoirs out of rivers for irrigation purposes or hydroelectric power. Man has also modified the face of the earth by draining marshes and cutting through mountains to build roads and railways.However, man‟s changes to the physical environment have not always had beneficial results. Toda y, pollution of the air and water is an increasing danger to the health of the planet. Each day thousands of tons of gases come out of the exhausts of motor vehicles; smoke from factories pollutes the air of industrialized areas and the surrounding areas of countryside. The air in cities is becoming increasingly unhealthy.The pollution of water is equally harmful. In the sea, pollution from oil is increasing and killing enormous numbers of algae (a very simple plant without stems or leaves that grows in or near water), fish and birds. The whole。

2011年6月英语四级考试全真预测试卷：仔细阅读3Passage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.There are people in Italy who can’t stand soccer. Not all Canadians love hockey. A similar situation exists in America, where there are those individuals you may be one of them who yawn or even frown when somebody mentions baseball. Baseball to them means boring hours watching grown men in funny tight outfits standing around in a field staring away while very little of anything happens. They tell you it’s a game better suited to the 19th century, slow, quiet, and gentlemanly. These are the same people you may be one of them wholove football because there’s the sport that glorifies “the hit”.By contrast, baseball seems abstract, cool, silent, still.On TV the game is fractured into a dozen perspectives, replays, close-ups. The geometry of the game, however, is essential to understanding it. You will contemplate the game from one point as a painter does his subject; you may, of course, project yourself into the game. It is in this projection that the game affords so muchspace and time for involvement. The TV won’t do it for you.Take, for example, the third baseman. You sit behind the third base dugout and you watch him watching home plate. His legs are apart, knees flexed. His arms hang loose. He does a lot of this. The skeptic still cannot think of any other sports so still, so passive. Butwatch what happens every time the pitcher throws: the third baseman goes up on his toes, flexes his arms or brings the glove to a pointin front of him, takes a step right or left, backward or forward, perhaps he glances across the field to check his first baseman’s position. Suppose the pitch is a ball. “Nothing happened,” you say. “I could have had my eyes closed.”The skeptic and the innocent must play the game. And this involvement in the stands is no more intellectual than listening to music is. Watch the third baseman. Smooth the dirt in front of youwith one foot; smooth the pocket in your glove; watch the eyes of the batter, the speed of the bat, the sound of horsehide on wood. If。

But a new study shows how washing your hands 67 , and at the right time, can have a big impact on your family’s risk of getting sick.Most studies on hand washing focus on 68 and food service workers. But this month’s American Journal of Infection Control focuses on washing hands at 69 as a way to stop infections from 70 . Several studies show hands are the single most important 71 route for all types of infections.Even though most people know to wash their hands after using the toilet or handling a diaper (尿布), studies 72 many people are still ending up with germs on their hands.One study looked in homes of 73 recently vaccinated against polio (脊髓灰质炎). After vaccination, the virus is74 to be shed in the baby’s feces (粪便). Researchers found the virus on 13 percent of bathroom, living room and kitchen surfaces. 75 the virus from the vaccine didn’t pose a health risk, feces-borne viruses can 76 through the home.Doorknobs and toilet flush handles are key 77 of germ transmission in the home. That’s why people should focus on cleaning such surfaces 78 and always wash their hands after touching them. In one study, a 79 touched a door handle contaminated with a virus. He then shook hands 80 other volunteers, and spread the virus to six people.The study authors note that the timing of hand washing is key. It’s 81 to wash hands after using the toilet, before eating or handling food. Other crucial times for hand washing are after 82 a diaper or cleaning up after a pet, or after touching garbage cans, dish rags and utensils that may have come 83 contact with raw food.While it may be hard to 84 that something as simple as regular hand washing can make a difference in your family’s health, consider what happened during the 2003 outbreak of SARS. The outbreak 85 extensive public and community health measures, including regular hand washing. Not only was the SARS outbreak contained, 86 other cases of illnesses dropped sharply.67.

This is because the current education system is not aimed at quality, but only at developing students’ability to perform well on tests. As a result, many students, even those with high scores, often do poorly when it comes to the practical application of what they’ve learned.Therefore, China is challenging examination-oriented education by advocating quality-oriented education. The alternative will focus on the students’ability as a whole. The exam results will no longer play a key role in evaluating a student.Personally, I firmly believe in the effectiveness of this new policy. I have seen in my mind’s eye the more dedicated study, the looser environment, yet the more creative minds of the future students.

As he was leaving the court, he said to the lawyer, “My gift to the judge was quite successful, wasn’t it?”The lawyer was even more shocked than before, and said, “What?

Suddenlythere was something wrong with the machine while it was flying in the air. The smoke was everywhere in the plane. The pilot told the people there were only four parachutes (降落伞). They all become worried and started to make excuses.“I must go and mend the machine,” said the pilot, taking one of the parachutes. There was nothing he could do so he jumped out.The first person stood up. “I’m a doctor,” he said, “ I help people live longer and I save lives.” He als o took a parachute and jumped out.The next person said, “I must have a parachute. I’m a very clever person. I have to attend an important sports match. I know I’ll win the game because I’ll be the cleverest person there.” He picked up a pack and jumped ou t.Two men were left —an old business and a young mountain climber. By this time the plane was going down fast. The businessman said, “Young man, I’m old but you are still you ng. You take the last parachute.” The young mountain climber smiled. “Don’t worry,” he said, “we can both jump to safety because there are still two parachutes.

It may be said that we think with muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but also with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on theradio, he is tempted to direct the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent conductor on the job.Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all the possible enjoyment form music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels” himself into the music with more or less pronounced motions of his body.The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less pronounced.56. Some psychologists maintain that thinking is ________.A. not a mental processB. more of a physical process than a mental actionC. a process that involves our entire bodiesD. a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain57. The process of thinking and that of listening are similar in that ________.A. both are mental actsB. muscles participate in both processesC. both processes are performed by the entire bodyD. we derive equal enjoyment from them58. Few people are able to listen to familiar music without ________.A. moving some part of their bodyB. stopping what they are doingC. directing the orchestra playing itD. wishing that they could conduct music properly59. Body movements are necessary in order for the listener to ________.A. hear the musicB. appreciate the musicC. enjoy the music fullyD. completely understand the music60. According to the selection, muscle participation in the process of thinking is________.A. deliberateB. obviousC. not readily apparentD. very pronouncedPassage 4Under proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected from a hillside or other such obstruction. Sound travels at the rate of about one fifth of a mile per second. If the hill is eleven hundred feet away, it takes two seconds for the sound to travel to the hill and back. Thus, buy timing the interval between a sound and its reflection (the echo), you can estimate the distance to an obstruction. During World War II the British used a practical application of this principle to detect German planes on their way to bomb London long the enemy was near the target. They used radio waves instead of sound waves, since radio waves can penetrate fog and clouds. The outnumbered Royal Air Force (RAF) always seemed to the puzzled Germans to be lying in wait at the right time and never to be surprised. It was radio echoes more than anything else that won the Battle of Britain.Since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the RAF planes and the distance to send them (their range of flight, in other words), the device was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials the word radar was coined.61. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the ________.A. height of the hillB. speed of soundC. distance to the hillD. intensity of sound62. Practical application of this principle resulted in ________.A. new electronic instruments for planesB. a radio directing and ranging deviceC. new radio sets for RAF bombersD. an electronic detecting device63. The British used radio waves because they ________.A. were more exact than sound wavesB. could not be detectedC. could penetrate fog and cloudsD. were easier to use than sound waves64. Which of the following is NOT stated but implied in the passage?A. Light waves could be used in a device similar to radar.B. Radar was a practical application of a well-known principleC. Radar greatly increased the effectiveness of RAF.D. Sound waves are reflected from a hillside under all conditions.65. The author of this selection probably intended to explain ________.A. exactly how radar worksB. why the British used radio waves in their deviceC. how the word “radar” cam e into beingD. how radar helped the British win the Battle of BritainPart IV Cloze 完形填空(10%)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passages.

partI Writing (30 minute) 注意：此部分试题在答题卡1上。

Directions:For this part ,you are allowed 30minute to write a short essay on the topic of students selecting their fectures.You should write at least 120 words following the outline when bellow: 1.有些⼤学允许学⽣⾃由选择某些课程的任课教师 2.学⽣选择教师时所考虑的主要因素 3.学⽣⾃选任课教师的益处和可能产⽣的问题 On Students Selecting Lecturers 范⽂： On Students Choosing Lecturers Nowadays, some universities give students the right to choose who teaches some of their classes. This has led to some debate over whether students should be given this much power. There are several factors that students consider when choosing a lecturer, including the teaching style of the lecturer, the lecturer’s academic background, and the lecturer’s reputation among students. The ideal lecturer is one who has an interesting teaching style, a diverse academic background, and a good reputation among students. There are both positive and negative aspects to allowing students to choose their lecturers. Giving students the choice encourages them to take ownership for their classes, and also puts pressure on teachers to improve their teaching quality. However, the factors that students consider might not be the ones that lead to the highest quality of education. Schools might end up with lecturers who teach interesting classes without much content.Part II Reading comprehension (skimming and scanning ) (15 minute) Directions: In this part,you will have 15 minute to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer sheet1 For questions 1-7,mark Y(for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N(for NO) if statement cintradicts the information given in the passage; NG(for NOT CIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. for question 8-10 ,complete the sentenced with the information given in the passage. Highway A goverment study recommended a national highway systerm of33,920 miles,and congress passed the Federcal-Aid Highway Act of 1944,which called for strict,centrakky controlled desert criterra. The interstate highway system was finally launched in 1956 and has been hailed as one of the greatest public works projects of the century .To bulid its 44,000-mile web of highways,bridge.and tunnels hundreds of unique engineering designs and solutions had to be worked out.Consider the many geographic ,features of the country:mountains,steepgrades,wetlands,rivers,desorts and plains.Variables included the slope of the land,the ability of the pavement to support the load.Innovative, designs of roadways,tunnels,bridges,overpasses,and interchanges that could run through or bypass urban areas soon began to weave their way across the country ,forever altering the face of American . Long-span,segmented-concrete,cable-stayed bridges such as Hale Boggs in Louisiana and the Sunshine Skyway in Florida,and remarkable tunnels like Fort Mchenry in Maryland and Mr.bakerin Washington developed under the nation’s physical challenges,Traffic control systems and methods of construction developed uder the interstate program soon influenced highway construction around the world,ang were invaluable in improving the condition of urban streets and traffic patterns. Today .the interstate system links every major city in the U.S,and the U.S with Canada and Mexico,Built with safety in mind the highways have wide lanes and shoulders,dividing medians,or barriers,long entry and exit lanes,ourves engineered for safe turns,and limited access,The death rate on highways is half that of all other U.S roads (0.86 deaths per 100 million passenger miles compared to 1.99 deaths per 100 million on all other roads) By opening the North American continent,highways have enabled consumer goods and services to reach people in remote and rural areas of jobs,access to the growth options in terms of jobs access to cutural progreams health care ,and other benefits.Above all,the interstate system provides individuals with what they enerish most:personal freedom of mobility. The interstate system has been an essential element of the nation’s economic growth in terms of shipping and job creation:more than 75 percent of the nation’s freight deliveries arrive by truck.and most products that arrive by rail or air use interstates for the last leg of the journey by vehiole. Not only has the highway system affected the American economy by providing shipping routes,it has led to the growth of spin-off industries like service stations ,motels,restaurants,and shopping centres.It has allower the rwlocation of manufacturing plants and other industries from urban areas to rural. By the end of the century there was an immense network of paved roads ,residential streets,expressways,and freeways built to support millions of vehicles,The high way system was officially renamed for Eisenhower to honor his vison and leadership.The year construction began he said:"Together,the united forces of our communication and transportation systems are dynamic elements in the very name we bear -United States.Without them ,we would be a mere alliance of many sepaeate parts." 8.The greatest benefit brought about by the interstate system was___________ 9.Trucks using the interstate highways deliver more than__________________ 10.The interterstate systerm was renamed afterEisenhower in recognition_____________ 参考答案：1.Y N NG 2.

You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once. Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage. Perhaps like most Americans you have some extra pounds to 47 . You may even have tried a fad diet or two, but found yourself right back where you started. The key to weight loss is regular 48 activity. And surprisingly, you don’t have to give up eating or make the gym your second home to see long-term, 49 effects. You body needs a certain amount of energy to maintain basic 50 such as breathing, blood circulation and digestion. The energy required to keep your organs functioning is referred to as the resting or basal metabolic rate. Any time you are active, 51 energy is required. It is obtained from glycogen and fat stored in the blood, liver, and muscles. The key to losing weight is to draw on the fat rather than on the carbohydrate reserves. Which of the two energy sources you use depends on the intensity and 52 of your activity. The higher the intensity, the more your body will pull from the stored carbohydrates. The lower the intensity, the more your body will 53 on fat as its fuel. Aerobic exercise is most 54 for weight loss. When you perform aerobic activities you 55 contract large muscle groups such as your legs and arms. Walking, running, rollerblading, swimming, dancing, and jumping jacks are all forms of aerobic activity. Surprisingly, if your aerobic activity is low to moderately intense and of long duration, you will burn more fat than if you had 56 in a short burst of high-intensity exercise. In short, a brisk 30-minute walk will burn fat while a 100-yard sprint will burn glycogen. [A] positive [B] additional [C] duration [D] effective [E] shed [F] physical [G] food [H] functions [I] participated [J] rely [K] cut [L] repeatedly [M] uses [N] little [O] obvious Section B Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statement. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C]and [D]. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage. There are many ways of defining success. It is accurate to say that each of us has our own concept of success to the extent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily. Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorable environments in which to express these abilities, it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly. For some people, simply being able to live their life with a minimum of misery and suffering is considered a success. Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep, enjoys his frugal life with his family in the beauty of nature, and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of and accepted by his and his society. On the other hand, it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions, many of them seem to be miserable and consider themselves unsuccessful when judged by their own standards of success. Because not all ventures can be successful, one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success, but if one has self-confidence it would be unfortunate to set one’s goals at too low a level of achievement. A wise counselor once said to a young man who was experiencing frustration with his own professional success: "You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling. Sometimes one can be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park or riding the subway downtown," The counselor added, " You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like, and to which you havegiven you best effort." 57. In the first paragraph, the author implies that ________ are essential in achieving success. [A] ability and goals [C] ability and environment [B] goals and determination [D] goals and environment 58. The word "frugal" (Line 2, Para. 2) means ________. [A] wealthy [C] thrifty [B] wasteful [D] miserable 59. Some rich people consider themselves unsuccessful because ________. [A] their life is miserable [C] their goals are too low [B] they do not live in peace [D] they are not rich enough by their own standards. 60. The last paragraph implies that ________. [A] we should have high goals [C] success means taking a walk in the park [B] success means achieving great goals [D] success means trying one’s best at what one really likes 61. This passage mainly talks about ________. [A] the definition of success [C] how to set goals [B] how to achieve success [D] the importance of goals Passage Two Questions 62 to 66 are based in the following passage. When Mike Kelly first set out to build his own private space-ferry service, he figures his bread-and-butter business would be lofting satellite into high earth orbit. Now he thinks he may have figured wrong. "People were always asking me when they could go," says Kelly, who runs Kelly Space Technology, "I realized the real market is in space tourism." According to preliminary market surveys, there are 10,000 would-be space tourists willing to spend $1 million each to visit the final frontier. Space Adventures in Arlington have taken more than 130 deposits for a two-hour, $98,000 space tour tentatively set to occur by 2005. This may sound great, but there are a few hurdles. Putting a simple satellite into orbit—with no oxygen, life support or return trip necessary—already costs and astronomical $2,200/kg. And that doesn’t include the cost of insuring rich and possibly litigious(爱打官司的)passengers. The entire group of entrepreneurs trying to corner the spacetourism market has between them "just enough money to blow up one rocket". The U.S. space agency has plenty of money but zero interest in making space less expensive for the little guys. So the little guys are racing to do what the government has failed to do: design a reusable launch system that’s inexpensive, safe and reliable. Kelly Space’s prototype looks like a plane that has sprouted rocket engines. Rotary Rocket in California has a booster with rotors to make a helicopter-style return to earth. The first passenger countdowns are still years away, but bureaucrats at the Federal Aviation Administration in Washington are already informally discussing flight regulations. After all, you can’t be too prepared for a trip to that galaxy far, far away. 62. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? [A] Take Vacations in Space [C] Flight Regulations in Space Travels [B] Building Hotels in Space [D] Cost of Space Traveling 63.
