Such words are called“learned”,andthe(20)--between them and the “popular”words is of great importance to a right understanding oflinguistic process.1.A.at B.with C.by D.through2.A.study B.imitate C.stimulate D.learn3.A.mates B.relatives C.members D.fellows4.A.which B.that C.those D.ones5.A.even B.despite C.even if D.in spite of6.A.mind B.concern C.care D.involve7.A.hire B.apply C.adopt e8.A.in public B.at most C.at large D.at best9.A.right B.privilege C.share D.possession10.A.consists prises C.constitutes poses11.A.seldom B.much C.never D.often12.A.prospect B.way C.reason D.necessity13.A.primary B.first C.principal D.prior14.A.tips B.mouth C.lips D.tongue15.A.besides B.and C.or D.but16.A.hear of B.attend C.hear from D.listen17.A.former B.formula C.formal D.formative18.A.theme B.topic C.idea D.point19.A.border B.link C.degree D.extent20.A.diversion B.distinction C.diversity D.similarity三、阅读理解(共25分)Obviously television has both advantages and disadvantages.In the first place,television is not only a convenient source of entertainment,but also a comparatively cheap one.With a TV set in thefamily people don’t have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre,the cinema,or the opera.All they have to so is to push a button or turn a knob,and they can see plays,films,operas and shows of every kind. Some people,however,think that this is where the danger lies.The television viewers need do nothing.He does not even have to use his legs if the has a remote control.He makes no choice and exercises,no judgment.He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort in his part.Television,it is often said,keeps one informed about current events and the latest developments in science and politics.The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one’s sitting room.It could be argued that the radio performs this service as well; but on television everything is much more living,much more real.Yet here again there is a danger.The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm for us.We get so used to looking at the movements on it,so dependent on its pictures,that it begins to control our lives. People are often heard to say that their television sets have broken down and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time to do things and the they have actually begin to talk to each other again.It makes one think,doesn’t it?There are many other arguments for and against television.We must realize that television itself is neither good nor bad.It is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society.1.What is the major function of paragraph1?A.To arouse the reader’s concernB.To introduce the theme of the wholeC.To summarize the wholeD.To sate the primary uses of TV2.Television,as a source of entertainment,is______.A.not very convenientB.very expensiveC.quite dangerousD.relatively cheap3.Why are some people against TV?A.Because TV programs re not interestingB.Because TV viewers are totally passiveC.Because TV prices are very high.D.Because TV has both advantages and disadvantages4.One of the most obvious advantages of TV is that______.A.it keeps us informedB.it is very cheapC.it enables us to have a restD.it controls our lives5.According to the,whether TV is good or not depends on_______.A.its qualityB.people’s attitude towards itC.how we use itD.when we use it四、书面表达:(满分15分)请你写封信给你的朋友marry告诉他,请他关照下你的朋友,内容重点如下:1.告诉这个消息2.请他给你朋友一些建议并给予指导注意:字数应为120词左右参考答案:一、选择题:1-5题:CACCA11-15题:DBABD11-15题:ADCAB16-20题:BBABB二、完型填空1【.答案】B本句中由with which引导的定语从句,修饰先行词those words。

The Games have been a great success in promoting international friendshiop and understanding,and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sport.One small source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games,however,has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able-bodied.Perhaps a few more years are still needed to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athlets should not be excluded.1.The first games for the desabled were held _____ after Sir Ludwig Guttmann arrived in England.A.40 yearsB.21 yearsC.10 yearsD.9 years2.Besides Stoke Mandeville,surely the games for the disabled were once held in _____.A.New YorkB.LondonC.RomeD.Los Angeles3.In Paragraph 3,the word "athletes" means _____.A.people who support the gamesB.people who watch the gamesC.people who organize the gamesD.people who compete in the games4.Which of the following statements in NOT true?A.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an early organizer of the games for the disabled.B.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an injured soldier.C.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is from Germany.D.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is welcomed by the British government.5.From the ,we may conclude that the writer is _____.A.one of the organizers of the games for the disabledB.a disabled person who once took part in the gamesC.against holding the games for the disabledD.in favour of holding the games for the disabled四、书面表达:请起草一份中学学校通知,用一段话说明以下要点:参观日期: 3月25日,星期天时间:早上8点钟出发。

They are retired, so they don't workanymore. My grandfather is 68 and my grandmother is 67, but they are not tooold to be active. They exercise by playing golf and they go out for mealsand to the theater. Sometimes they take me out, too. We have a good time. Theyalso go on great holidays. Last year, they went to China and walked along theGreat Wall!Sometimes, my grandparents like to criticize me. They think that childrentoday have an easy life. Life was very different when they were young and thereare many things about my life that they do not understand. They tell me, overand over, how they had to start work at 16. They know that I will go on touniversity and won't be getting a job until I am 22! They also think that Ihave too many possessions, such as mobile phones, computers and PSPs. When theywere young, they did not have anything like that. What they do not realize isthat they cannot compare children at present time.

In their search for precision,scientists have turned to atomic clocks that depend on various vibrating atoms or molecules to supply their "ticking".This is possible because each kind of atom or molecule has its own characteristic rate of vibration.The nitrogen atom in ammonia, for example,vibrates or"ticks"24billion times a seconD.One such atomic clock is so accurate that it will probaly lose no more than a second in3000years.It will be of great improtance in fields such as astronomical is a sesium atom that vibrates9.2billion times a second when heated to the temperature of boiling water.An atomic clock that operates with an ammonia molecue may be used to check the accuracy ofpredictions based on Einstein's relativity theories,according to which a clock in motion and a clock at rest should keep time differently.Placed in an orbiting satellite moving at a speed of18000miles an hour,the clock could broadcast its time readings to a ground station,where they would be compared with the readings on a similar model.Whatever differences develop would be checked against the differences predicteD.1.Scientists expect that the atomic clocks will be______.A.more preciseB.absolutely accurateC.more durableD.indestructible2.The heart of the atomichron is_______.A.acesium atomB.an ammonia moleculeC.a nitrogen atomD.a hydrogen3.From theselection,we may assume that temperature

check______.A.the effect of outer space on an atomic clockB.the actual speed of an orbiting sateliteC.the accuacy of predictions based on theories of relativityD.all of Einstein's theories5.Implied but not stated:_______.A.Precise timekeeping is essential in scienceB.Scientists expect to disprove Einstein's relativity theoriesC.Atomic clocks will be important in space flightD.The rate of vibration of an atom never varies二、完型填空完型填空(一)Exercise is good for you,but most people really know very little about how to exercise properly.1when you try,you can runsintostrouble.Many people2that

大学英语英语四级练习卷(及答案) (5)

大学英语四级试练习卷一、阅读理解阅读理解(一)The United States is a federal union of 50 states.The capital of national government is in Washington,D.C.(District of Columbia).The federal constitution sets up the structures of the national government and lists its powers and activities.The constitution gives Congress the authority to make laws which are necessary for the common defense and the good of the nation.It also gives the federal government the power to deal with national and international problems that involve more than one state.All powers that are not given to the federal government by the constitution are the responsibility of the individual states.The federal government has three branches--the executive,the legislative,and the judicial.The legislative brandch makes the laws,executive branch carries out the laws,and judicial branch interprets the laws.The President heads the executive branch and the Supreme Court heads the judicial branch.The legislative branch includes both houses ofCongress--the Senate and the House of Reprsentatives.The constitution limits the powers of each branch and prevents one branch from gaining too much power.For example,Congress can pass a Law the President may sign it.Nevertheless,the Supreme Court can declare the law unconstitutionaland nullify it.All government in the United States is "of the people,by the people and for the people".The people elect the President and the members of Congress.However,the President appoints the heads of federal departments and the Supreme Court judges.Every citizen votes in secret.Consequently,no one knows for whom and indevidual votes.The people believe that their government should provide a frameword and order within which they are left free to run their own lives.1.Who makes the laws?A.The Congress.B.The Federal government.C.The President.D.The supreme Court.2.The capital of the United States lies in _____.A.the state of the COlumbiaB.none of the fifty statesC.the state of New YorkD.the state of Washington3.Based on what you can know from the ,which of the following statements is true?A.The heads of federal departments are elected by the people.B.The President sets up the structures of the federal governmentC.The judicial branch has the authority to explain the laws.D.The constitution gives all powers to the federal government.4.The constitution limits the powers of each branch of the federal government because _____.A.the U.S. has fifty statesB.the individual states have their own governmentsC.the federal government has three branchesD.any one branch should not have too much power5.The main point of this is ______.A.the three branches of the U.S. governmentB.American governmentC.the Federal ConsititutionD.the people should be left free to run their own lives阅读理解(二)Though England was on the whole prosperous and hopeful, though by comparison with her neighbors she enjoyed internal peace, she could not evade the fact that the world of which she formed a part was torn by hatred and strife as fierce as any in human history. Men were still for from recognizing that two religions could exist side by side in the same society; they believed that the toleration of another religion different from their own. And hence necessarily false, must inevitably destroy such a society and bring the souls of all its members into danger of hell. So the struggle went on with increasing fury within each nation to impose a single creed upon every subject, and within the general society ofChristendom to impose it upon every nation. In England the Reformers, or Protestants, aided by the power of the Crown, had at this stage triumphed, but over Europe as a whole Rome was beginning to recover some of the ground it had lost after Martin Luther’s revolt in the earlier part of the century. It did this in two ways, by the activities of its missionaries, as in parts of Germany, or by the military might of the Catholic Powers, as in the Low Countries, where the Dutch provinces were sometimes near their last extremity under the pressure of Spanish arms. Against England, the most important of all the Protestant nations to reconquer, military might was not yet possible because the Catholic Powers were too occupied and divided: and so, in the 1570’s Rome bent her efforts, as she had done a thousand years before in the days of Saint Augustine, to win England back by means of her missionaries.These were young Englishmen who had either never given up the old faith, or having done so, had returned to it and felt called to become priests. There being, of course, no Catholic seminaries left in England, they went abroad, at first quite easily, later with difficulty and danger, to study in the English colleges at Douai or Rome: the former established for the training of ordinary or secular clergy, the other for the member of the Society of Jesus, commonly known as Jesuits, a new Order established by St, Ignatius Loyola same thirty years before. The seculars came first; they achieved a success which even the most eager could hardly haveexpected. Cool-minded and well-informed men, like Cecil, had long surmised that the conversion of the English people to Protestantism was for from complete; many—Cecil thought even the majority—had conformed out of fear, self-interest or—possibly the commonest reason of all —sheer bewilderment at the rapid changes in doctrine and forms of worship imposed on them in so short a time. Thus it happened that the missionaries found a welcome, not only with the families who had secretly offered them hospitality if they came, but with many others whom their first hosts invited to meet them or passed them on to. They would land at the ports in disguise, as merchants, courtiers or what not, professing some plausible business in the country, and make by devious may for their first house of refuge.

大学英语英语四级练习卷(及含答案) (3)

大学英语四级试练习卷一、阅读理解阅读理解(一)President Clinton’s decision on Apr.8to send Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji packing without an agreement on China’s entry into the World Trade Organization seemed to be a massive miscalculation.The President took a drubbing from much of the press,which had breathlessly reported that a deal was in the bag.The Cabinet and Whit House still appeared divided, and business leaders were characterized as furious over the lost opportunity.Zhu charged that Clinton lacked“the courage”to reach an accord.And when Clinton later telephoned the angry Zhu to pledge a renewed effort at negotiations,the gesture was widely portrayed as a flip-flop.In fact,Clinton made the right decision in holding out for a better WTO deal.A lot more horse trading is needed before a final agreement can be reached.And without the Administration’s goal of a“bullet-proof agreement”that business lobbyists can enthusiastically sell to a Republican Congress,the whole process will end up in partisan acrimony that could harm relations with China for years.THE HARD PART.Many business lobbyists,while disappointed that the deal was not closed,agree that better terms can still be had.And Treasury Secretary Robert E.Rubin,National Economic Council Director Gene B.Sperling,Commerce Secretary William M.Daley,and top trade negotiator Charlene Barshefsky all advised Clinton that while the Chinese had made a remarkable number of concessions,“we’re not there yet,”according to senior officials.Negotiating with Zhu over the remaining issues may be the easy part. Although Clinton can signal U.S.approval for China’s entry into the WTO himself,he needs Congress to grant Beijing permanentmost-favored-nation status as part of a broad trade accord.And the temptation for meddling on Capital Hill may prove over-whelming.Zhu had barely landed before Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott(R-Miss)declared himself skeptical that China deserved entry into the WTO.And Senators Jesse A.Helms(R-N.C.)and Emest F.Hollings(D-S.C.)promised to introduce a bill requiring congressional approval of any deal.The hidden message from these three textile-state Southerners:Get more protection for the U.S.clothing industry.Hoping to smooth the way, the Administration tried,but failed,to budge Zhu on textiles.Also left in the lurch:Wall Street,Hollywood,and Detroit.Zhu refused to open up much of the lucrative Chinese securities market and insisted on “cultural”restrictions on American movies and music.He also blocked efforts to allow U.S.auto makers to provide fleet financing.BIG JOB.Already,business lobbyists are blanketing Capitol Hill to presale any eventual agreement,but what they’ve heard so far isn’tencouraging.Republicans,including Lott,say that“the time just isn’t right”for the deal.Translation:We’re determined to make it look as if Clinton has capitulated to the Chinese and is ignoring human, religious,and labor rights violations;the theft of nuclear-weapons technology;and the sale of missile parts to America’s enemies.Beijing’s fierce critics within the Democratic Party,such as Senator Paul D. Wellstone of Minnesota and House Minority leader Richard A.Gephardt of Missouri,won’t help,either.Just how tough the lobbying job on Capitol Hill will be become clear on Apr.20,when Rubin lectured19chief executives on the need to discipline their Republican allies.With business and the White House still trading charges over who is responsible for the defeat of fast-track trade negotiating legislation in1997,working together won’t be easy.And Republicans—with a wink—say that they’ll eventually embrace China’s entry into the WTO as a favor to Corporate America.Though not long before they torture Clinton.But Zhu is out on a limb,and if Congress overdoes the criticism,he may be forced by domestic critics to renege. Business must make this much dear to both its GOP allies and the Whit House:This historic deal is too important to risk losing to any more partisan squabbling"1.The main idea of this passage is"[A].The Contradiction between the Democratic Party and the RepublicanParty.[B].On China’s entry into WTO.[C].Clinton was right.[D].Business Lobbyists Control Capitol Hill."2.What does the sentence“Also left in the lurch:Wall Street, Hollywood,Detroit”convey?"[A].Premier Zhu rejected their requirements.[B].The three places overdid criticism.[C].They wanted more protection.[D].They are in trouble."3.What was the attitude of the Republican Party toward China’s entry into the WTO?"[A].Contradictory.[B].Appreciative.[C].Disapproving.[D].Detestful."4.Who plays the leading part in the deal in America?"[A].White House.[B].Republicans.[C].The Democratic Party.[D].Businessmen."5.It can be inferred from the passage that"[A].America will make concessions.[B].America will hold out for a better WTO[C].Clinton has the right to signal U.S.approval for China’s entry.[D].Democratic party approve China’s entry into the WTO.阅读理解(二)Accreditation is a system for setting national standards of quality in education.The United States is unique in the would because its accreditation system is not administered by the government,but rather by committees of educators and private agencies,like the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and the Society of Engineers.Before registering to study in any educational institution in the U.S.,a student should make certain that the institution is accredited in order to assure that the school has a recoginized standard of organization,instruction,and financial support.Foreign students should be particularly careful to check an institution's accreditation because other governments or future employers may not recognize a degree earned from a school that has not recevied accreditation.If a college is accredited,catalogues and brochures will usually indicate the accreditation status.If you are not sure about a certain school,don't hesitate to check its requtation with an education officer at the nearest U.S.embassy.1.The word'unique'in line2most nearly means_______.A.unusualB.firstC.standardrge2.What school students do in order to check the accreditation of a school that may interest them?A.Write to the schoolB.Write to the U.S.Ministry of EducationC.Register to study at the schoolD.Consult a U.S.embassy offical3.From this,it may be concluded that an unaccredited school____.A.does not coffer degreeB.may close because of financial disorganizationC.is administered by the governmentD.is better than an accredited school4.The title that best expresses the ideas in this is_____.A.studying in the untied statesB.accreditationC.how to find the best schoolD.the middle states association of colleges and secondary schools二、完型填空完型填空(一)Most people have no idea of the hard work and worry that goes into the collecting of those fascinating birds and animals that they pay to see in the zoo.One of the questions that is always asked of me is(1)I became an animal collector in the first(2).The answer is that I

Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourthlevel, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!1. A good title for this is ____.A. SleepC. DreamsB. Good HealthD. Work and Rest2. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means ____.A. sickC. asleepB. stand upD. a little sleepy3.

I remember going to the airport with my parents when I was 13 and reading the destinations board, seeing all the places that I could go to : Los Angeles, Chicago, London.But the trains passed by and the planes took off without me, so I wandered theworld through books. I went to Victorian England in the pages of Middlemarch and A Little Princess, and to St. Petersburg before the fall of the tsar(沙皇) with Anna Karenina.My home was in a pleasant outside Philadelphia. But really lived, truly lived, somewhere else. I lived within the covers of books. I traveled, not only to the other worlds, but into my own. I learned who I was and I wanted to be, what I might achieve, and what I might dare to dream about my world and myself.I travel today in the way I once dreamed of traveling as a child—on airplanes and in rains. And the irony (具有讽刺意味的事) is that I don’t care for it very much.I am the sort of person who prefers to stay at home, surrounded by family, friends, books. The only thing I do like about traveling is the time on airplanes spent reading.(S4) It turns out that when my younger self thought of taking wing, she wanted only to let her spirit soar. Books are the plane, and the road. They are the real destinations, and the journey too. They are home.( ) 1. What did the writer do as a curious child?A) She visited Victorian England and Tsarist Russia.B) She flew to Los Angeles, Chicago and London with her parents.C) She read all kinds of books.D) She spent lots of time traveling on trains.( ) 2. How does the author feel about travel today?A) She doesn’t like it very much.B) She takes great pleasure in it.C) She feels tired of it.D) She feels as excited as when she was young.( ) 3. What did the author learn from books as a child?A) About many foreign places.B) About many historical figures.C) About the outside world as well as her own self.D) About the ironies of life.( ) 4. We can infer from the passage that when traveling by air, the author spends most of her time on the way ___________.A) reading booksB) resting herselfC) imagining thingsD) letting her spirit soar( ) 5. In this passage the author mainly talks about ________.A) the wonders of travelB) her growth from an innocent child to a learned womanC) the benefits of readingD) the difference between childhood dreams and life’s realitiesPassage twoThis story began about 10 years ago. I was coming out of a very bad marriage. For seven long years my husband spent his every waking moment telling me just what was wrong with me. When I finally asked for a divorce, he answered by telling me that I would never find anyone to love me because I was just so unattractive. This went on for about two years. One night one of my friends convinced me to go out with her. We went to a nightclub and that is when I met him.Clint was playing a game with a girl. I sat in the corner watching him. I didn’t feel that I had whatever it took to get up and mix with others because of my self-esteem (自尊心) problem. Finally I got up the courage to order a drink for him. When he got it, he gave me the most dazzling (感人的) smile. We spent the rest of the evening talking until I realized that it was almost morning. I figured that he was simply being nice to me because I had bought him a drink, but the very next day he called and told me that he could not stop thinking about me and that he wanted to meet my kids too.About 3 months later, my divorce was final and Clint sat my boys down and asked them if it was all right with them if he asked me to marry him because he could not imagine life without the three of us anymore. I was so touched that he went to my boys and asked their approval (同意) because they were the “men of the house” at the ripe old ages of 2 and 4. They said yes and we have all been together ever since. Clint gave me and my boys a second chance at a wonderful life. Not a day goes by that he doesn’t tell us that we are the best thing that ever happened to him and that he loves us.1. The writer’s first marriage was unsuccessful because _______.A) her husband often woke her up at midnightB) her husband kept criticizing herC) she was unattractiveD) she had a self-esteem problem2. When the writer asked for a divorce, her husband ________.A) told her that she would never find one who loved her as he didB) delayed two years before giving her a replyC) accused her of having an affairD) said that she was unattractive and not worth loving3. When the writer first met Clint, she felt that ________.A) she should have listened to her friend and met Clint earlierB) Clint was a nice, dazzling young manC) Cline could not be really interested in herD) she would find true love in Clint4. The writer was particularly touched by Clint because ________.A) he loved the kids and asked for their approval of the marriageB) he said that he could not imagine a life without her and the houseC) he believed that at 2 and 4, the two kids were the “man of the house”D) he kept her company and talked with her until the next morning5.
