专业英语八级(听力)模拟试卷6(题后含答案及解析) 题型有:1. LISTENING COMPREHENSIONPART I LISTENING COMPREHENSION (35 MIN)SECTION A MINI-LECTUREDirections: In this section you sill hear a mini-lecture. You will hear the lecture ONCE ONLY. While listening, take notes on the important points. Your notes will not be marked, but you will need them to complete a gap-filling task after the mini-lecture. When the lecture is over, you will be given two minutes to check your notes, and another ten minutes to complete the gap-filling task on ANSWER SHEET ONE. Use the blank sheet for note-taking.听力原文:Effective Note-taking Good morning, everyone! Today I’d like to continue our series of talks about study skills in university. This morning I’m going to discuss how to take notes effectively. [1]As we all know, note-taking is difficult since spoken language is more diffuse than written language and its organization is not immediately apparent. In addition, spoken language is quickly gone, which makes analysis difficult. So it can be seen that to achieve such a complex task as note-taking, a high level of ability in many separate skills is required. Now let’s discuss these skills in details. Before taking notes, prepare yourself mentally. [2]Be sure of your purpose and the speaker’s purpose. Review your notes and other background material if available because increased knowledge results in increased interest. Besides, a clear sense of purpose on your part will make the speaker’s content more relevant. Be ready to understand and remember. Anticipate what is to come, and later evaluate how well you were able to do this. While taking notes, the student has to understand what the lecturer says as he says it. The student cannot stop the lecture in order to look up a new word or check an unfamiliar sentence pattern. This puts the non-native speaker of English under a particularly severe strain. Often he may not be able to recognize words in speech which he understands straightaway in print. He’ll also meet words in a lecture which are completely new to him. [3]While he should, of course, try to develop the ability to infer their meanings from the context, he won’t always be able to do this successfully. He must not allow failure of this kind to discourage him, however. It is often possible to understand much of a lecture by concentrating solely on those points which are most important. But how does the student decide what is important? It is, in fact, the second skill I want to talk about today. [4]Probably the most important piece of information in a lecture is the title itself. If this is printed beforehand, the student should study it carefully and make sure he is in no doubt about its meaning. Whatever happens he should make sure that he writes it down accurately and completely.A title often implies many of the major points that will later be covered in the lecture itself. [5]Be alert to the speaker’s emphasis through tone, gesture, repetition and illustration on the board. A good lecturer, of course, often signals what is important orunimportant. He may give direct signals or indirect signals. Many lecturers, for example, explicitly tell their audience that a point is important and that the student should write it down. It is worth remembering that most lecturers also give indirect signals to indicate what is important. [6]They either pause or speak slowly or speak loudly or use a greater range of intonation, or they employ a combination of these devices, when they say something important. Conversely, their sentences are delivered quickly, softly, within a narrow range of intonation and with short or infrequent pauses when they are saying something which is incidental. It is, of course, helpful for the student to be aware of this and for him to focus his attention accordingly. Having sorted out the main points, however, the student still has to write them down. And he has to do this quickly and clearly. [7]In order to write at speed, try to develop a suitable system of mechanics: jot down words or phrases, not entire sentences; develop some system of shorthand and be consistent in its use; leave out small service words; use contractions, abbreviations and symbols. Most students find it helpful to abbreviate. [8]They also try to select only those words which give maximum information. These are usually nouns, but sometimes verbs or adjectives. Writing only one point on each line also helps the student to understand his notes when he comes to read them later. An important difficulty is, of course, finding time to write the notes. If a student chooses the wrong moment to write, he may miss a point of greater importance. Connecting words or connectives may guide him to a correct choice here. [9]Those connectives which indicate that the argument is proceeding in the same direction also tell the listener that it is a safe time to write. “Moreover”, “furthermore”, “also”, etc., are examples of this. Connectives such as “however”, “on the other hand”or “nevertheless”usually mean that new and perhaps unexpected information is going to follow. Therefore, it may, on these occasions, be more appropriate to listen. After taking notes, review and reword them as soon as possible. Don’t just recopy or type without thought. Reminiscing may provide forgotten material later. Rewrite incomplete parts in greater detail. Fill in gaps as you remember points heard but not recorded. [10]Arrange with another student to compare notes. Sharpen your note-taking technique by looking at other students’notes. How are they better than your own? How are your notes superior? Compare the information in your notes with your own experience. Don’t swallow everything uncritically. Don’t reject what seems strange or incorrect. Check it out. Be willing to hold some seeming inconsistencies in your mind over a period of time. Make meaningful associations. Memorize that which must be memorized. OK. In today’s lecture, we’ve discussed several skills that can help one in taking notes effectively. In our next lecture, we’ll explore how to read effectively.Effective Note-taking The difficulty of taking notes: Note-taking requires a high level of ability due to the 【B1】______ of spoken language. 【B1】______ I.

In today’s lecture, I will talk about the skills required to get a good job. Well, it is true that now competition for employment is more so than ever. So it begs the obvious question, how do you stand out? There will be three main points I will be discussing. They are academic, personal management, and teamwork skills. I will give you examples of these skills, and reasons why these skills are important for you to get a job. First of all, academic skills. Academic skills are probably the most important skill you will need to get a job. It is one of the or the first thing an employer looks for in an employee. They are skills which give you the basic foundation to acquire, hold on to, and advance in a job, and to achieve the best results. Academic skills can be further divided into three sub-groups: communication, thinking, and learning skills. [1]Communication skills require you to understand and speak the languages in which business is conducted. You must be a good listener, and be able to understand things easily. One of the most important communicating skills should be reading. You should be able to comprehend and use written materials including things such as graphs, charts, and displays. One of the newest things we can add to communicating skills would be the Internet, since it is so widely used all around the world, [2]and hence you should have a good understanding of what it is and how to use it. Then, thinking skills. [3]Thinking critically and acting logically to evaluate situations will get you far in your job. Thinking skills consist of things such as solving mathematical problems, using new technology, instruments, tools, and information systems effectively. Some examples of these would be technology, physical science, the arts, skilled trades, social science, and much more. After that, learning is very important for any job. For example, if your company gets some new software, you must be able to learn how to use it quickly and effectively after a few tutorials. You must continue doing this for the rest of your career. It is one thing that will always be useful in any situation, not just jobs. The second major job skill I want to discuss is management skills. [4]Personal management skill is the combination of attitudes, skills, and behaviors required to get, keep, and progress on a job and to achieve the best results. Personal management skills can be further divided into three sub-groups just as academic skills, which are positive attitudes and behaviors, responsibility, and adaptability. Positive attitudes and behaviors are also very important to keep a job. You must have good self-esteem and confidence in yourself. [5]You must be honest, have integrity, and personal ethics. You must show your employer you are happy at what you are doing and have positive attitudestoward learning, growth, and personal health. [6]Show energy and persistence to get the job done, these can help you to get promoted or a raise. Responsibility and adaptability are also essential. Responsibility is the ability to set goals and priorities in work and personal life. It is the ability to plan and manage time, money, and other resources to achieve goals, and accountability for actions taken. [7]While adaptability means having a positive attitude toward changes in your job, and recognition of respect for people’s diversity and individual differences. Creativity is also important. You must have the ability to identify and suggest new ideas to get the job done. Last but not least, I want to emphasize teamwork skills. [8]Employers now focus on employees’teamwork skills simply because teams can bring more talent, experience, knowledge and skill to the problem situation and teamwork can be more satisfying and morale boosting for people than working alone. There are two reasons. First, team recommendations are more likely to be carried out than recommendations by an individual because people are more willing to support an effort that they have helped to develop. Second, teams can react to a variety of problems that are beyond the technical competence of an individual, since teams can be composed of individuals cross department and division lines. Teamwork skills are those skills needed to work with others co-operatively on a job and to achieve the best results. You should show your employer you’re able to work with others, understand and contribute to the organization’s goals. Involve yourself in the group, make good decisions with others and support the outcomes. [9]Don’t be narrow-minded, listen to what others have to say and give your thoughts toward their comments. [10]Be a leader not a loner in the group. In conclusion, I would like to say that all these skills I have discussed are critical to getting and keeping a job and to achieve the best results possible for you. Of these skills though academic skills would be the most important skills you will learn, I think. So if you keep at these skills you will be happy with what you are doing unlike a lot of people who are forced to get jobs that they do not like. After you get a desirable job, here comes the second question on how to advance in the job you have already acquired. Of course this is the topic we shall discuss in the next lecture. Thank you for your attention.The Skills Required to Get a Job I. Academic skills: basic foundation 1.

(1) Roar and buzz belong to onomatopoeic motivation.(2)Miniskirt and hopeless belong to morphological motivation.(3) The leg of a table and the neck of a bottle belong to semantic motivation.(4) Titanic and panic belong to etymological motivation.50. Associative meaning comprises four types:(1)Connotative meaning . It refers to the overtones or associations suggested by the conceptual meaning,traditionally known as connotations. It is not an essential part of the word-meaning, but associations that might occur in the mind of a particular user of the language. For example, mother , denoting a ‘female parent’, is often associated with ‘love’, ‘care’, etc..(2)Stylistic meaning. Apart feom their conceptual meanings, many words have stylistic features, whichmake them appropriate for different contexts. These distinctive features form the stylistic meanings of words . For example, pregnant, expecting, knockingup, in the club, etc., all can have the same conceptual meaning, but differ in their stylistic values.(3)Affective meaning. It indicates the speaker’s attitude towards the person or thing in question. Wordsthat have emotive values may fall into two categories :appreciative or pejorative. For example, famous, determined are words of positive overtones; notorious, pigheaded are of negative connotations implying disapproval, contempt or criticism.(4)Collocative meaning. It consists of the associations a word acquires in its collocation. In other words,it is that part of the word-meaning suggested by the words before or after the word in discussion. For example, we say : pretty girl, pretty garden; we don’t say pretty typewriter. But sometimes there is some overlap between the collocations of the two words.Chapter 6 Sense Relations and Semantic Field (练习5)I.Each of the statements below is followed by four alternative answers.

the education of the common man had occupied his thoughts for decades. He believed ignorance (无知) to be the enemy of freedom, and he wanted to correct what he considered to be the weaknesses of educational institutions (机构) modeled on European settings. He imagined that an “academical village” around a tree-lined lawn would provide an ideal setting in which to pursue higher education. The center of such a village would be a Temple of Knowledge that would house the university library.When Virginia decided to set up a state university in 1818, the retired U.S. President finally was able to devote his talent, time, and energy to creating this new kind of educational institution. By the time he was finished with his design, Jefferson had invented an entirely new American setting for higher education: the college campus.In 1812, Jefferson chose to begin building his “academical village,” the University of Virginia, in Charlottesville, VA, far away from the city center. He intended this spot to promote learning because it was natural and unspoiled, and far from anything that could distract or harm the students. The University consists of two rows of houses, five on each side, leading to a main building. This main building, the Rotunda, became the most important part of the University, because it contained the library. By focusing his entire institution on the library, instead of around the church, Jefferson revolutionized American university architecture.Jefferson’s aim was to create a new institutional form for his ideal educational system, a system he thought should give every citizen the information he needs for carrying out his daily business. This new approach to citizensip and education demanded a new type of university, one where students and professors could coexist and share ideas. He attempted to create this environment by combining the professors’ houses and students’ classrooms, and linking all the buildings with covered walkways so intellectual exchanges between departments could go on smoothly. Jefferson had also recognized the importance of the students’ whole life, and given much thought and planning to设施).分)分)分)A.give everyone the information he needs for conducting his businessB.be one under which every citizen enjoys equal opportunityC.provide students with a natural and unspoiled setting for learning分)A.Intellectual exchange.B.Students’ learning.C.Both students’ and professors’ life.D.Professors’ teaching.分)分)分)分)分)分)A.Little did I knewB.Little did I know分)分)分)分)A.bring outB.let outC.leave outD.make out1.

英语专业四级试卷册
英语专业四级试卷册As an English major, the prospect of taking the English Proficiency Test (CET-4) can be both daunting and exciting. On one hand, it is an opportunity to showcase my language skills and academic knowledge. On the other hand, it can be a source of stress and anxiety, as it is a comprehensive test that covers a wide range of topics and requires a high level of proficiency in English. The CET-4 test is not only a measure of language ability, but also a test of one's ability to think critically, analyze information, and communicate effectively in English.From a practical perspective, passing the CET-4 test is often a requirement for graduation and for pursuing further studies or employment opportunities. Many universities and employers in China require students and job applicants to have a certain level of English proficiency, and passing the CET-4 test is often the standard measure of that proficiency. Therefore, for many English majors, taking the CET-4 test is a necessary step in their academic andprofessional development.From an academic perspective, the CET-4 test is an opportunity to demonstrate the knowledge and skills that I have acquired throughout my studies. It covers a wide range of topics, including reading comprehension, listening comprehension, writing, and translation, which are all essential components of English language and literature studies. Therefore, preparing for the CET-4 test is not only about passing a requirement, but also about consolidating and applying the knowledge and skills that I have acquired as an English major.From a personal perspective, the CET-4 test can be a source of both pride and pressure. As an English major, I take pride in my language skills and academic achievements, and passing the CET-4 test is a validation of those skills and achievements. At the same time, the pressure to perform well on the test can be intense, as it is a high-stakes exam that can have a significant impact on my academic and professional future. Therefore, preparing for the CET-4test requires not only academic knowledge and languageskills, but also mental and emotional resilience.In conclusion, the CET-4 test is a multifaceted challenge for English majors, encompassing practical, academic, and personal perspectives. It is a necessary step for graduation and for pursuing further studies or employment opportunities, an opportunity to demonstrate academic knowledge and language skills, and a source of both pride and pressure. As an English major, preparing for the CET-4 test requires a comprehensive approach that addresses all of these perspectives, and a determination to succeed despite the challenges.。

The modeling and the composition of apron, Lintel and paper-cut for window decoration are so dissimilar among each floor, which seem flexible too. Ruishi Diaolou was mainly made of three parts: the main part, the balcony part and the roof part .The composition of the main part which includes the first to the fifth floor give priority to squares, so the sculpts are very simple. The balcony part which includes the sixth one is surrounded by Roman Stoa composed of Ionic orders and arcades.

The history and the function of Ruishi Diaolou
In the past, this village is an area with under civilization characterized by street violence, drug-taking, theft and high criminal cases. The human life and property were not protected very well. At this time, HuangBiXiu aged of fifty-nine had succeeded in his business. In order to protect their parents and his wife who lived at home, HuangBiXiu aged of fifty-nine spent hk$ thirty thousand in building the household Diaolou construction in1921.
