Figures show the number of male nurses has fallen in the last three years. Now, the number of men working in the nursing sector has reached a seven-year low. Numbers of male nurses increased between 2011 and 2014 and reached a peak of 7168. This figure has dropped to only 6924 in 2017. The UK Health Secretary said this is clearly a cultural problem, and probably one that exists in many parts of the world. But we can make efforts to change that now. We want to persuade males to think about career options of going into nursing. There is absolutely no reason why men can't go into this profession. The health secretary said that the government already has plans to attract a more varied workforce into nursing. She stated, we are leading the way on workforce planning. We will become the first nation in Europe to publish a national health and care workforce plan.Q1: What problem is Britain facing?A) The number of male nurses has gone down..B) There is discrimination against male nurses.C) There is a growing shortage of medical personnel.D) The number of nurses has dropped to a record low.Q2: What is the cause of the problem according to the UK Health Secretary?A) Cultural bias.B) Inadequate pay.C) Educational system.

These skills are extremely important for our professional, social, and intellectual lives. What are the best ways to improve them? One way is to expand your world view. Unfortunately, this takes time. Ultimately, it will help you better evaluate information and analyze different ideas and outcomes. Traveling is a great way to expand your world view, although it can be expensive. An entertaining way of enhancing your analytical skills is to engage them by playing brain games. These are games that challenge you to think deeply and to develop your analytical skills. These games will get you used to thinking in a certain way. As a result, they will help improve your ability to think. However, opinions vary on whether video games are effective. The general consensus is that the best ones avoid mindless violence, and instead focus on strategy and challenge us to solve problems and achieve broad goals. Joining a debate or reading club or group is also a good idea. This provides people with the opportunity to come together and discuss ideas, literature and problems. Groups like these will help you refine your analytical skills and enable you to express yourself better. Any social group that encourages free exchange of ideas and pursuit of knowledge is beneficial. It helps you to actively develop your analytical skills.Q16. What kind of ability do analytical skills refer to in the passage?A) Acquiring information and professional knowledge.B) Using information to understand and solve problems.C) Enriching social and intellectual lives.D) Expressing ideas and opinions freely.Q17. What does the passage say is an entertaining way of enhancing one's analytical skills?A) Improving mind-reading strategies. B) Reading classic scientific literature.C) Playing games that challenge one’s mind.D) Traveling to different places in the world.Q18. What else does the speaker advise people to do to improve their analytical skills?A) Give others freedom to express themselves. B) Expose themselves to different cultures.C) Discard personal biases and prejudices. D) Participate in debates or discussions.Passage TwoThere's an endless amount of scientific data proving that dogs can develop strong bonds with their owners. People aren't kidding when they say they love their dog or their dog loves them, but we’re rather ignorant about the nature of the relationships that form between dogs. In an effort to understand the matter further, I spoke with doctors Mark Beckhoff a researcher and former professor of animal behavior. The doctors' response to the question of whether or not dogs can fall in love like humans do was a straight "Of course!" He went on to say that if love is defined as a long-term commitment meaning dogs seek one another out when they're apart, they're happy when they're reunited, they protect one another, they feed one another, they raise their children together. Then, of course, dogs love each other. Now our furry friends don't really experience romantic love, like in the movies, but they can form deep and lasting bonds with their fellow dogs as well as humans. In fact, evidence shows almost dogs stay with one partner their whole lives. In actuality, love between dogs can be even more intimate than human relationships. When they interact, they aren't afraid to smell each other and will express themselves clearly and honestly. Once again, it seems we have a lot to learn from dogs.Q19. What does the passage say we don't know much about?A) The nature of relationships between dogs.B) The reason a great many people love dogs.C) Why dogs can be faithful friends of humans. D) How dogs feel about their bonds with humans.Q20. What does Dr. Mark Beckhoff say about dogs?A) They have an unusual sense of responsibility. B) They can respond to humans’ questions.C) They can fall in love just like humans.D) They behave like other animals in many ways.Q21. What does the speaker say about most dogs?A) They have their own joys and sorrows. B) They experience true romantic love.C) They help humans in various ways. D) They stay with one partner for life.Passage ThreeA piece of history has been found thanks to a boy tripping on a rare, 1.2-million-year-old animal fossil. In November 2016, Jude Sparks, now 10, was on an outing with his family near their New Mexico home, when he tripped over what he thought was a cow bone. Now, researchers at New Mexico State University preserving this discovery, which was identified as an ancient elephant-like animal. Kyle Sparks, father of Jude, said he let his son decide what to do with the fossil. So Jude reached out to Peter Houde, a professor at New Mexico State University who had experience with the same type of fossil in the past. The next day, Houde came out to see the fossil for himself. Houde told ABC News that he was quite excited about the find. It was fortunate that the family didn't try to dig up the fossil because that could destroy the specimen; they did the right thing by calling someone who would know what to do."It's great for the community because now everybody can appreciate it," he added. Houde and his fellow faculty members dug up the fossil in late May. They hope to return to the site with geologists for an additional search as there could be more fossils near the site. Jude and his family had been invited by the researchers tosee the fossil being preserved at the university.Q22. What did the boy Jude Sparks think he had discovered?A) A cow bone. B) A rare animal.C) A historical site. D) A precious stone.Q23. What are the researchers at New Mexico State University doing with the boy's discovery?A) Measuring it. B) Preserving it.C) Dating it.

B) The boy’s family had acted correctly.C) The boy should have called an expert. D) The channel needs to interview the boy.Q25. What do the researchers plan to do?A) Search for similar fossils elsewhere. B) Ask the university to reward Jude.C) Conduct a more detailed search.D) Seek additional funds for the search.答案1-7 AACBABD 8-15 CBDCADAC 16-25 BCDACDABBC。

For one thing, it's so commonly used. The only language that is used by more people is Chinese. W: Why is English spoken by so many people?M: It's spoken in many countries of the world because of the British Empire. And now of course there is the influence of America as well.W: Many students find English a difficult language to learn.M: Oh, all languages are difficult to learn. But English does have two great advantages.W: What are they?M: Well, first of all, it has a very international vocabulary. It has many German, Dutch, French, Spanish and Italian words in it. So speakers of those languages will find many familiar words in English. In fact, English has words for many other languages as well.W: Why is that?M: Well, partly because English speakers have travelled a lot, they bring back words with them. So English really does have an international vocabulary.W: And what is the other advantage of English?M: It's that English grammar is really quite easy. For example, it doesn't have dozens of different endings for its nouns, adjectives and verbs, not like Latin, Russian and German for example.W: Why is that?M: Well, it's quite interesting actually. It's because of the French. When the French ruled England, French was the official language, and only the common people spoke English. They tried to make their language as simple as possible. So they made the grammar easier.。

The company spent the last five years developing solar panels that are only about a quarter of an inch thick and are strong enough to stand up to heavy highway traffic without breaking or making the roads more slippery. The panels are also designed so that they can be installed directly on top of existing roadways, making them relatively cheap and easy to install.France isn’t the first country to kick around the idea of paving its roads with solar panels. In November 2015, the Netherlands completed a 229-foot-long bike path paved with solar panels as a test for future projects. However, this is the first time a panel has been designed to be laid directly on top of existing roads and the first project to install the panels on public highways.Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.Q3： What was France's purpose of constructing the Wattway?A)Finding cheaper ways of highway construction.B)Generating electric power for passing vehicles.C)Providing clean energy to five million people.D)Testing the efficiency of the new solar panel.答案：C) Providing clean energy to five million people.Q4： What is special about the solar panels used in the Wattway?A)They can stand the wear and tear of natural elements.B)They can be laid right on top of existing highways.C)They can only about half an inch thick.D)They are made from cheap materials.答案：B) They can be laid right on top of existing highways.News 3：Lions have disappeared from much of Africa, but for the past few years scientists have wondered if the big cats were hanging on in remote parts of Sudan and Ethiopia. Continuous fighting in the region has made surveys difficult.But scientists released a report Monday documenting, with hard evidence, the discovery of "lost lions."A team with Oxford University’s Wildlife Conservation Research Unit, supported by a charity organization, spent two nights in November camping in the National Park in northwest Ethiopia, on the Ethiopia-Sudan border. The researchers set out six camera traps capturing images of lions, and they identified lion tracks.The scientists concluded that lions are also likely to live in the neighbouring National Park across the border in Sudan. The International Union for Conservation of Nature had previously considered the area a "possible range" for the species, and local people had reported seeing lions in the area, but no one presented convincing evidence.Questions 5 and 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.Q5： What has made it difficult to survey lions in remote parts in Sudan and Ethiopia?A)Endless fighting in the region.B)The hazards from the desert.C)Inadequate funding for research.D)The lack of clues about the species.答案：A) Endless fighting in the region.Q6： What was the main purpose of the research?A)To observe the wildlife in the two national parks.B)To identify the reasons for the lions’ disappearance.C)To study the habitat of lions in Sudan and Ethiopia.D)To find evidence of the existence of the “lost lions”.答案：D) To find evidence of the existence of the "lost lions".Q7： What did the researchers find in the National Park?A) Lions walking.

How did you know?M： David told me you had a special birthday coming up.W：Oh…yeah that's right. This year will be my golden birthday.M： What does that mean? I've never heard of a golden birthday.W： I've actually just learnt this concept myself. Fortunately, just in time to celebrate. A golden or lucky birthday is when one turns the age of their birth date. So,for example, my sister's birthday is December 9th and her golden birthday would have been the year she turned nineyears old. Come to think of it, my parents did throw her a surprise party that year.M： Interesting. Too bad I missed mine. My golden birthday would've been four years ago. I assume you got big plans then.W： Actually yes. My husband is planning a surprise holiday for the two of us next week. I have no idea what he's got in mind, but I'm excited to find out. Has he mentioned anything to you?M： He might have.W： Anything you'd like to share? I'm dying to know what kind of trip he has planned on where we're going.M： You know nothing at all?W：Not a clue. Hard to imagine, isn’t it? Though I must say I think he's been having even more fun keeping the secret from me in the past few weeks.M： I'm sure both of you will have a fantastic time. Happy golden birthday! I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back.Questions 8 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Q8.

But I think successful negotiators have several things in common. They are always polite and rational people. They are firm but flexible. They can recognize power and know how to use it. They aresensitive to the dynamics of the negotiation. The way ofrises and falls and how it may change direction. They project the image of confidence, and perhaps most importantly, they know when to stop.W： And, what about an unsuccessful negotiator?M： Well, this is probably all of us when we start out. We are probably immature and over-trusting. Too emotional or aggressive. We are unsure of ourselves and we want to beliked by everyone. Good negotiators learn fast. Poor negotiators remain like that and go on losing negotiations.W： In your opinion, can the skills of negotiation be taught?M： Well, you can teach someone how to prepare for a negotiation. There are perhaps six stages in every negotiation. Get to know the other side. State your goals. Start the process. Clarify areas of disagreement or conflict. Reassess your position. Making acceptable compromises. And finally, reach some agreement in principle. These stages canbe studied. And strategies to be used in each can be planned beforehand. But I think, the really successful negotiator is probably born with six sense about responding appropriatelyto the situation at hand.W：The artistic sense you’ve just described?M：Yes. That’s rig ht.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Q12： What does the man say about good negotiators?A) They are sensitive to the dynamics of a negotiation.B) They see the importance of making compromises.C) They know when to adopt a tough attitude.D) They take the rival’s attitude into account.答案：A) They are sensitive to the dynamics of a negotiation.Q13： What does the man say may be the most important thing to a successful negotiator?A) They know how to adapt.

Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Some people wonder why countries spend millions of dollars on space projects. They want to know how space research helps people on Earth. Actually space technology helps people on Earth every day. This is called "spin-off technology."Spin-off technology is space technology that is now used on Earth.In early space programs, such as the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 1970s, and in the Space Shuttle missions today, scientists developed objects for the astronauts to use on the moon and in space. We now use some of these objects every day.For example, we have Quartz crystal clocks and watches accurate to within one minute a year. We purify the water we drink with a water filter designed for the astronauts' use in space.The cordless, hand-held tools we use in our homes, such as vacuum cleaners, flashlights, drills and saws came fromthe technology of these early space programs.On cold winter days we can stay warm with battery-operated gloves and socks, and specially made coats and jackets. All of these clothes are similar to the spacesuit designs that kept astronauts comfortable in the temperatures of the moon, and are spin-offs from space technology.These products are only a few examples of the many ways space technology helps us in our everyday lives. No one knows how new spin-off technology from the International Space Station will help us in the future.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you havejust heard.Q16： What do some people want to know about space exploration?A) When America’s earliest space program started.B) When the International Space Station was built.C) How many space shuttle missions there will be.D) How space research benefits people on Earth.答案： D) How space research benefits people on Earth.Q17： What did scientists do for the space shuttle missions?A) They accurately calculated the speed of the orbiting shuttles.B) They developed objects for astronauts to use in outer space.C) They tried to meet astronauts’ specific requirements.D) They tried to make best use of the latest technology.答案：B) They developed objects for astronauts to use in outer space.Q18： What does the speaker say about Quartz crystal clocks and watches?A) They are extremely accurate. C) They were first made in space.B) They are expensive to make. D) They were invented in the 1970s.答案：A) They are extremely accurate.Passage 2Well, if I could go back in history and live, I'd like to go back to the 18th century and perhaps in colonial America in Yankee, New England, where one of my ancestors lived, because it was the beginning of something.By the 18th century, there was a feeling of community that had grown. My ancestor was a preacher, traveling around the countryside. People lived in small communities. There were fishermen and farmers who provided fresh food that tasted and looked like food, unlike that in today's supermarkets, and there were small towns, and New York wasn't that far away. I'm deeply attached to the Puritan tradition, not in a religious sense, but they believed in working for something, working for goals, and I like that.They worked hard at whatever they did, but they had a sense of achievement. They believed in goodness in community and helping one another. I love the colonial fabrics, all the silver work, the furnishings, the combination of elegance and simplicity. I love it. The printing, the books, I'm very attached to all that kind of thing that may not all be very entertaining in the modern sense of the world. But I would have enjoyed spending my evenings in that environment, discussing new ideas, building a new world. And I can see myself sitting on a small chair by the fire doing needlework.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you havejust heard.Q19： Why does the speaker say she would like to go back and live in the 18th century America?A) It was when her ancestors came to America.B) People had plenty of land to cultivate then.C) It marked the beginning of something new.D) Everything was natural and genuine then.答案：C) It marked the beginning of something new.Q20： What does the speaker say about the Puritans?A) They believed in working for goals.

Don’t run blindly. If you must move, don’t follow a stream unless you know it, and in that case, you are not lost. Streams, normally flow through wetland before they reach a lake or a river.

名师推荐2019.12英语四级听力突击训练
第一步：预判(3-5分钟)
做题前，一定留出时间看题。
正式考试时看题时间约3分钟左右。
我们只能高效的看而非全面的看。
选项中最需要注意的是：高频词，主语，谓语等。
同时注意，相要保留，准确答案就在其间。
复合式听写部分也需要注意高频词汇。
例(2010年12月小对话)：
[A] Combine her training with dieting.
[B] Repeat the training every three days.
[C] Avoid excessive physical training.
[D] Include program.
很明显，考动作的动作题目，注意听懂第二句的动作即可。
例(长对话)
[A] marketing consultancy.
[B] Professional accountancy.
[C] luxury hotel management.
[D] business conference organization
选项都是某种行业，又因为此题是08年6月听力长对话中的第一题，所以就暗示自己注意长对话开始部分的行业词汇即可。
第二步：听力开始(35分钟)
2006年6月年后的四级听力放音时间约35分钟左右。
请不间断地听完一套题，中间不要停顿，强化自己的耐力注意力和定力。
记住，不要间断也不要提前看后方的答案。
第三步：查阅环节(时间因人而异)
1、对答案。
确定准确答案在原文中的位置。
同时确定错误答案为什么错。
2、查词和短语。
将选项和原文中所有不熟悉的单词和短语全部查阅清楚，不留死角。
3、翻译句子。
查阅词语结束后，可以用视译的方式看句子是否可以通顺的翻译明白。
若发现人有句子无法理解，那就是单词和短语的含义并未查阅正确。
例：2010年12月第22题B选项By on TV.
Commercial的含义不是“商业”而是“广告”。
例：2006年6月四级听力长对话原文，是一个面试：
What benefit package do you offer?
误译：你提供什么利益包裹?
正译：你们有什么样的福利计划?
无独有偶：2007年12月的面试长对话中，又出现了一次benefit
There is a list of extra benefits. (有一个福利清单。
)
第四步：视听和跟读原文(时间因人而异)
现在，你需要打开眼睛已经可以完全看懂的听力原文。
边放音边听，同时跟读和模仿。
跟不上的时候，可以以半句为单位甚至每个单词为单位。
本步骤可以纠正发音。
你可以读准这几个单词么?
Exhibit resume receipt fasten suite
另外，我们还需要特别注意连读或失去爆破在语句中的使用。
第五步：裸听(时间因人而异)
本步骤要求在没有原文的情况下，完全靠双耳能力听懂所有细节。
这是听力训练的最高环节。
你可能会发现刚才边看边听时没有任何理解难度的单词和短语都会出现不懂或模糊的情况，一旦如此，请回到第四步确定是什么词语让耳朵不够熟悉。
本环节的训练需要耐心和
坚持。
第六步：部分听写(时间因人而异)
为了提高四六级整体听写水平，同学可以在选话或长对话，甚至短文听力，用单句反复播放的形式写出来。
你需要耐心地把一句话重复听多遍，以求最终准确写出。
若发现单词或短语无法准确拼写，可以在整段播放完毕后进行统一确认。
注意：“时间因人而异”是指由于同学基础和能力有所差别，耗费的时间也会有差别。
