Hello, Ricky.M: Hello. [1.A]Yes I looked at the provision of training by employers in this country, and found that most have a 'winner-takes-all' approach to training. Despite low-levels of basic skills, companies spend most of their training budgets on their most qualified employees, particularly managers. This simply doesn't result in the quality we need.W: But does this really matter?M: Yes, because even though there have been enormous efforts to make training available to everyone, the under-development of the workforce in this country is a major factor in our poor productivity. It's also true that the time people spend being trained is below the average of the world's industrialized economies.W: [2.A]Training is particularly bad in the fast-food industry, isn't it?M: Well, [2.B]the industry certainly has the image of offering low-paid, low-prestige jobs with no future prospects. And there are jobs that don't demand a great deal of skill, for instance using the latest technology for cooking. [2.A][2.B]But in fact, that image isn't entirely accurate.Not only are pay and conditions improving, but [2.D]some fast-food chains are better than many other service sector employers at combining commercial success with the development of its workforce.W: Can you give us an example?M: Well, the Burger House chain gives its staff the chance to take courses in all sorts of things, not just those needed for cooking or serving. When the annual training programme is circulated, staff plan with their managers which courses to attend. They encourage people to spend as much time being trained as they think they can benefit from. In the long term, the company gains financially, because it creates a source of potential managers.W: But still, working in a fast food establishment is much worse than in an expensive restaurant, isn't it?M: [3.A]In both cases, the work can resemble a production line, [3.B]with the pressure limiting the chances of job satisfaction. [3.D]But, expensive restaurants depend on the reputation of one or two individuals; the rest have little chance to move from low to high-skilled work. In some fast-food chains, almost half the managers have worked their way up from the kitchens.And while the type of service varies, I've seen good and bad quality in expensive restaurants and fast-food places, and that depends on training.W: Where will the pressure for improved training come from?M: In fact, it's internal. [4.A][4.B]Although customers are affected by the end result of training, they also tend to be sensitive to prices. So, [4.C]in fact, it's mostly people who have already worked their way up to managerial levels who want to help others in the same way.[4.D]Another advantage of course, is that training attracts job applicants, which makesrecruitment easier.W: What recommendations did you make in your report?M: [5.A]My main one is that the government should support training by letting companies claim tax relief. Many companies already get this for certain types of training, but the proposal would particularly help unskilled workers aiming at intermediate qualifications. [5.B]The government should also work with the sector skills council to improve training and working conditions in those industries where it's necessary.W: Do you think the government will act on your proposals?M: Well, [5.D]I want to reintroduce the idea of people getting grants, so that they can choose training for themselves, but there were problems with this a few years ago, so the political will probably isn't there to try it again. [5.C]I'm confident we'll see a review of all the vocational qualifications, though, which would remove some of the inconsistencies that are there now.And to be honest, my idea for all workers to spend a minimum time on training is unlikely to be introduced just yet.W: Ricky Bland, thank you.M: Thank you.【答案解析】 11。

长喜英语4级考前预测作文(30篇)

大学英语四级考前预测作文预测作文1. More People Choosing Overseas Destinations for Their HolidaysDirections:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled More People Choosing Overseas Destinations for Their Holidays based on the statistics provided in the chart below. Please give a brief description of the chart first and then make comments on it. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.【范文】More People Choosing Overseas Destinations for Their Holidays From the chart given above, we can observe that the number of people traveling abroad experienced some changes during the past several years. From 1993 to 2003, the number of Chinese people choosing overseas destinations for their holidays increased rapidly from less than 5 million to 20 million, and then to 70 million in 2011.What exactly contribute to this phenomenon? Reasons can be listed as follows: for one thing, the authorities have issued some preferential policies to promote the development of the overseas tourism industry, which encourages a sudden emergence of travel agencies that can provide customers with convenient overseas tourism services. For another, with the improvement of financial status and purchasing power, a considerable number of Chinese people can afford the once-deemed-expensive traveling expenses.By observing the past trends, we may forecast that the growth tendency will continue. However, it is also a highly variable industry which is vulnerable to seasons and climates, international politicalsituation, fluctuations in exchange.预测作文2. On Cosmetic Surgeries1. 近年来，整容现象屡见不鲜2. 出现这一现象的原因3. 我对这一现象的看法和建议【范文】On Cosmetic SurgeriesIn recent years, there have appeared more and more artificial beauties around us. Not only those actresses but also many ordinary women are crazy about cosmetic surgeries. They fail to resist the temptation of becoming more beautiful by changing some parts of their bodies within a few hours’ surgery.What are responsible for the prevalence of cosmetic surgeries? Firstly, thanks to the development of shaping techniques, the chances of successful surgeries have increased greatly, which makes more people begin to believe and accept cosmetic surgeries. Secondly, with the improvement of living standard, people have more money to satisfy their nature of pursuing beauty.From my point of view, cosmetic surgeries have their necessity of existence in modern society. They do help some people build confidence by giving them a beautiful face or figure. However, cosmetic surgeries cannot bring permanent beauty and might be dangerous. Besides, I think one’s inner beauty is more important. Therefore, I suggest that people should think twice before deciding to accept cosmetic surgeries.预测作文3. Goal Setting Is ImportantDirections:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Goal Setting Is Important by commenting on John Ruskin’s famous remark, “Living without an aim is like sailingwithout a compass.” You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.【范文】Goal Setting Is Important“Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass.” This philosophical wisdom by John Ruskin, one of the greatest British writers, tells us that goal setting is extremely important in life.Why is goal setting so important? The main importance of goal setting is that it provides us with direction and purpose. When we have goals, we know what we want to achieve so that we can focus our mindson a single worthwhile target and avoid getting distracted easily. Personal goal setting also provides us with motivation to achieve what we want to achieve.Goal setting is of especial significance for today’s students. A study reveals that when students set goals, they learn the importance of taking responsibility, of minimizing excuses and of helping others. Goal setting is a lifelong skill that first helps students succeed in school and then later in life.预测作文4. Shopping through Media1. 目前许多人通过媒体购物2. 媒体购物有利有弊3. 我的看法【范文】Shopping through MediaWith the development of science and technology, it is much more common for people to buy goods through different kinds of media than before. People can buy things such as computers and necklaces through TV, radio, the Internet, etc.Shopping through media is welcomed by most people due to various reasons. From theperspective of consumers, it can save time for people who don’t have much spare time. For retailers, it can cut costs for those without much circulating funds. However, there are still some defects in shopping through media. First, compared with face-to-face deal, it seems less reliable and trustworthy. Second, people will lose the fun of bargaining.In my view, although shopping via media brings great convenience to us, we still should be brings great convenie nce to us, we still should be careful when we “go shopping” through media. We should check the information released by the media. Only in this way can we fully enjoy the convenience brought by media shopping without the concern of being cheated.预测作文5. Parents’ Being Slaves to Children1. 现在有些父母成为“孩奴”2. 出现这种现象的原因3. 这种现象可能产生的影响【范文】Parents’ Being Slaves to ChildrenParents’ being slaves to their children or “child’s slave” is nowadays a hot topic in China. It refers to young parents who have to spend a large part of their income on children. These parents feel great strain under the burden of raising a child and struggle hard to make as much money as possible.The cost of raising a child in China is becoming greater and greater. But economic pressure is not the only reason that makes young parents “child’s slave”. Parents’ competing with each other in trying to provide the best possible living conditions for their children should also be blamed.If this problem continues, it would affect parents and the development of our country. These parents would suffer from huge economic pressure, which may pose a threat to their marriages or physical and mental health. On the other hand, to avoid being slaves, some couples are unwilling to have children.预测作文6. Due Attention Should Be Given to Speaking1. 如今不少学生在英语学习中不重视口语2. 出现这种现象的原因是……3. 为改变这种状况，我认为……【范文】Due Attention Should Be Given to SpeakingNowadays fewer and fewer students pay attention to their spoken English, which results in a dramatic increase in the number of students who can spell English words but are incapable of speaking them fluently or correctly. This phenomenon has aroused many people’s attention.Why does such a phenomenon emerge? As far as I’m concerned, there are possibly two r easons contributing to this phenomenon. On the one hand, exam-oriented education makes many schools lay emphasis on passing the English exams, which leads to the lack of speaking environment for students to practice their spoken English. On the other hand, students themselves don’t realize the importance of the a b i l i t y t o s p e a k E n g l i s h w h i c h h a s a g r e a t i n f l u e n c e o n t h e i r f u t u r e study and career development.To change this situation, I think, we can take the following measures. First, the importance of oral English should be emphasized to raise students’ awareness of the necessity of speaking English. Second, exams should be modified to make students pay attention to their spoken English. Third, schools can organize various activities to arouse students’ in terest in speaking English.预测作文7. Creating a Harmonious Campus1. 建设和谐校园很重要2. 和谐校园不仅指和谐的环境3. 为建设和谐校园我们应该……【范文】Creating a Harmonious CampusA harmonious campus is of vital importance. It is just like a solid, colorful and appealing textbook. It nurtures the students’ mentality, beautifies their minds, sparks their aspirations, enlightens their wisdom and accelerates their overall development.When it comes to a harmonious campus, we do not merely mean a beautiful environment on campus. We also mean a healthy interpersonal relationship, where teachers and students get along well, while students respect and care for each other. We mean a sustainable campus that brings teachers and students to fully play their enthusiasm and positivism as well, while at the same time reinforce campus regulations and campus order.The creation of a harmonious campus needs joint efforts of institutes and students. Colleges and universities should introduce advanced campus culture which encourages a variety of creative extra-curricular activities and puts first staff, faculty and students. As students, we should behave ourselves, learn to be tolerant and respect each other.预测作文8. Free Admission to Parks1. 越来越多的公园免费开放，目的是什么2. 也会带来一些问题3. 你的看法【范文】Free Admission to ParksTo encourage people to go outside and relax, a mounting number of parks offer free admission now. People benefit from it, especially during these tough economic times. With free entry, more people will have the opportunity for affordable vacations for families, taking pleasure in the natural landscape.Fresh air and landscapes in parks are good for people. However, too many people flocking into parks might not be so good for the parks.For example, some visitors leave their garbage behind, which may cause environmental pollution. And people’s barbeques and stamping will also bring damage to the grassland and other greeneries in parks.As a university student, I’m in favor of free admission to parks. Free entry to parks not only saves people’s expenditu re, but also makes things fairer — people like the poor and students can go to parks frequently as well. On the other hand, visitors should be informed to preserve the environment while enjoying the beauty of the nature.预测作文9. Green Consumption1. 绿色消费的概念在中国日渐流行2. 中国推行绿色消费还存在许多困难3. 如何解决这个问题【范文】Green ConsumptionThe conception of green consumption has gradually become popular in China. More and more green foods are making their appearance on the market and more and more people are becoming conscious of environmental protection.However, there still exist quite a few difficulties in the further promotion of green consumption. On the one hand, many people are still not quite clear of the advantages of green foods. On the ot he r h and, du e t o hi gh p ro fi t s, m an y f a ke gr e en f ood s ar e foun d i n t he market. Moreover, many consumers don’t want to pay extra money for green foods.There may be several ways to solve these problems. Firstly, the government should supervise the good quality strictly to protect consu mers’ interests. Secondly, the conception of green consumption should be further promoted and emphasized. Thirdly, the government should work together with manufacturers to make the price more reasonable.预测作文10. The Internet1. 有人认为网络可以让学习、工作更有效率2. 有人却认为网络让青少年沉迷，影响学习3. 我的看法【范文】The InternetIn the era of information and technology, the Internet plays an important role in our society. However, people’s opinions are still divided on this point. Those who are in favor of the Internet claim that it has a lot of advantages. Firstly, information searching is no longer a tough job with the help of all kinds of search engines. Secondly, we can contact friends or business partners via e-mails or software such as Internet Meeting and Yahoo Messenger.Those who are opposed to the Internet hold that its disadvantages are numerous. In the first place, using the Internet costs considerable time, money and energy, especially for those with poor self-control. In the second place, increasing young people are indulged in online games and unhealthy information, which are extremely harmful to their development.In my opinion, its pros outweigh the cons. The past twenty years have witnessed the fast development of the Internet along with the national economy. A brighter future is awaiting us if we make good use of the Internet.预测作文11. Youngsters’ Worship1. 大学生现在过分崇拜大明星2. 分析产生这一现象的原因3. 我的看法【范文】Youngsters’ WorshipNowadays, star-worshiping is popular among teenagers, especially many university students.Why? When it comes to the symptoms of worshiping a star, the main factor I’d like to mention is imitation. With a blind love for their idols, teenagers firmly believe that their choices are the best. As a result, the stars’ clothes, hairstyles and hobbies, as well a s their behaviors in public, are closely observed or followed, though, to some extent, they may be considered improper or even ridiculous.In my opinion, having idols is not a bad thing. However, we should make it clear who are the real “heroes”. As far as I am concerned, the real heroes are those who are making the most contributions to our society, such as teachers, doctors and scientists. As students, we should learn from them. Only in this way can we become useful persons in the future.预测作文12. On Moral Building on Campus1. 校园道德建设十分重要2. 因此，学校可以……3. 我们自己应当……【范文】On Moral Building on CampusRecently, if you search the internet or other media, you would see reports on demoralization now and then. Universities are no exception. These demoralization shows in the following aspects: theft, lack of credibility, cheating in examinations, plagiarism in papers, improper interaction with the opposite sex etc. In sum, moral building on campus is of critical importance in students’ all-round development.On one hand, this requires the universities to attach great importance to natural environment planning and building. A good campus environment plays an active role in cultivating students’ ideology and moral education. On the other hand, the staff in the university should find the best in both Chinese and Western culture to educate the students. Students can learn important lessons from Western cultures, adding to our profound morality.We, as students in the university, should be aware of the importance of moral building. We should do something to support the moral building work, starting from little things around us. Students Unionshould organize some activities for students to take part in, highlighting the importance of moral building.预测作文13. On Dishonesty in Tourism1. 近年来旅游行业中不诚信现象比较普遍2. 出现这一现象的原因3. 我对这一现象的看法和建议【范文】On Dishonesty in TourismSince 1980s, the economy of China has developed greatly. With more money in their pockets, people are spending more money on travelling, which has brought prosperity to tourism. Nevertheless, many travel agencies or agents are reported to cheat their customers and make money in a dishonest way.The reason for dishonesty in tourism is various. First and for most, money is the spur. Some travel agencies use all means to cheat their customers in order to get more money. Secondly, to survive in the fierce competition, travel agencies have to make enough profits. To realize profit maximization, they cheat. Last but not least, their victims seem to have little sense of defending their rights.To regulate travel agencies and protect the rights of tourists, the government has issued various laws. However, I think tourists can take the following tips to avoid travel scams. First, choose a trustworthy travel agency for your trip. Secondly, use your common sense and keep alert while travelling. Finally, defend yourself if your rights are violated.预测作文14. On Card Slave“卡奴”是指一个人使用大量的现金卡、信用卡，但负担不出缴款金额或是以卡养卡、以债养帐等方式，一直在还利息钱的人。

王长喜四级英语作文范文

王长喜四级英语作文范文王长喜四级英语作文范文下面是店铺整理的王长喜四级英语作文范文，希望对大家有帮助。

王长喜四级英语作文范文：1. 目前大学接受社会捐赠现象很普遍2. 人们对这一现象看法不同3. 我的看法【参考范文一】Universities 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 indir ectly. Therefore, universities’ taking donations should be advocated.【参考范文二】Universities Taking DonationsDonations to universities have become commonplace with the rapid economic development and people’s emphasis on education. Some donations universities receive come from the individuals, most of who are their alumni, while some are made by large companies, domestic or international ones.People differ on universities’ taking donations. Supporters say receiving donation helps universities develop faster. It also provides chances to those willing to promote higher education. Critics, however, maintain that universities are sacrificing independence, since most largedonations are conditional ones. For example, many large donors would require schools to publicize their contributions, such as naming a teaching building after their names.Personally, I think universities should be careful in receiving endowment. A general rule: donations that are given with no conditions can be accepted. Besides, universities should examine the sources of the donations and resist the commercial pressures which are put on them.王长喜四级英语作文范文：1. 现在有不少家长付钱让孩子做家务2. 有人对此赞成，也有人表示反对3. 我的看法【参考范文一】Paying 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. Suppo rters say tying kids’ allowances tohousework 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.【参考范文二】Paying Kids for Chores?To foster a love for work and help them become accustomed to it, many Chinese, especially those in big cities, pay their only child to do chores at home. Usually the amount of money given to the child depends on the child’s age, the family’s income and the child’s expenses.var script = document.createElement('script'); script.src = '/resource/baichuan/ns.js'; document.body.appendChild(script);People’s opinions vary towards this phenomenon. Some people think it’s a good idea for parents to pay kids to do housework. It motivates children to do more jobs around the house, as paying chores shows them that they have to work in order to get allowances. Others, however, argue that it’s improper for parents to take this approach, since paying them makes them lazy. They say many children now refuse to do anything unless there is some kind of compensation. I’m in thecamp that parents should pay their children in return for work done around the house. On the one hand, it teaches children that they should work for what they want in life. On the other hand, it provides solid lessons and opportunities related to money management.王长喜四级英语作文范文：1. 目前有不少大学生开车上学2. 人们对此看法不一3. 我的看法【参考范文一】Students’ Driving to SchoolStudents’ driving to school is no longer as rare as it was t wo decades ago. According to a news report, in Chongqing University alone, the number of student drivers now reaches over 50. MBA students included, the number will be up to 500.People have different views on students’ driving to school. Some people say it is a natural phenomenon connected with China’s growth —millions of families can afford private cars now. Some consider it improper, since it will cause parking problems in the already crowded school. Still, there are people who worry that driving to school is showing off to some extent and might lead to blind comparison among students.In my opinion, as long as students own cars and get driving licenses, they should be allowed to drive themselves to schools. After all, car is a transportation tool. Like cycling and walking, driving just serves as a way to travel between school and home. Therefore, there is nothing to fuss over driving to school, even if the drivers are college students.【参考范文二】Students’ Driving to SchoolWith the development of society, more and more families possess private cars, and many college students now drivethemselves to school. This sparks off a heated debate on students’driving to school.Some are in favor of students’ driving to school. They claim that it can save time to go to school or go home, especially for those living far off the campus. Besides, driving is a basic skill for future work, which is always required in job recruitment. On the contrary, some are against it. They hold that young drivers, known as road killers, are not careful enough in driving. “Li Gang Gate” incident is a typical lesson and should be prevented forever. What’s more, they believe that it is a way of showing off, an ill mental state.For my part, I object to students’ driving to school. For one thing, driving to school adds a financial burden to many families. For another, parking is a serious problem. As more and more cars are parked in campus, our beautiful schools will be messy parking lots.。

王长喜教你过四级

王长喜十二句作文法第一节：六级作文试题分析一．六级作文试题分类六级作文从试题角度可以分为现象解释型、对比选择型、问题解决型、观点论证型与应用文五种类型。

（一）现象解释型此类作文在六级考试作文中最为常见。

命题主要要求考生对某一社会现象进行解释并加以评论，其基本结构是：首先说明现状；其次阐述这种现状产生或存在的原因；最后做出分析，提出建议或总结观点。

例如：1．现象解释六级真题（2003年6月）（二）对比选择型此类作文同样是六级考试中常见的类型，它的标志十分明显。

作文题目要求较明确，富有针对性，即直接要求考试比较两种观点或做法，进而表明自己对问题或事务的态度或观点，也就是做出选择。

例如：（2000年6月，1999年6月）（三）问题解决型此类作文要求考生从提示性文字或图表、图画入手，解释提示性文字、图表、图画反映出的问题，提出问题的危害性或解决这一问题的紧迫性；然后对问题展开分析，提出解决问题的方案或应对措施；最后一段要求考生表明自己的态度、做法等。

如2000年1月真题。

（四）观点论证型此类作文往往要求考生根据题目给出论点，按照提纲的结构要求对其下论证，然后表明自己的立场和看法。

通过摆事实、讲道理的方式剖析事物，论述事理，发表意见，确立或否认某一主张。

如：1999年1月六级真题。

（五）应用文应用文中的信函，也是六级作文设计的试题之一。

在这类题型中，考生会读到一个特定的场景，试题要求考生按照这个场景给相关人士写一封短信，并在信中明确表达自己写信的原因、动机、目的和愿望等。

文章所设及的内容多种多样，但大部分都与日常生活比较贴近。

书信的类型可能变化万千，如邀请信、申请信、感谢信、道歉信等，但是万变不离其宗，只要掌握了英语书信的格式，并应用恰当的句式和语句，就一定能够写出好的文章来。

二．解决方案1．建议考生分解作文观点，扩充内容。

2．建议考生在写作时只选择自己能够驾奴的句式和词语。

3．建议考生在文章中长短句搭配使用，用短句表达观点，长句推理分析。

访谈实录-王长喜四六级冲刺辅导

访谈实录：王长喜四六级冲刺辅导主持人：各位网友晚上好，今天很荣幸邀请到了北文学校的首席英文教师王长喜老师，为各位做四六级的考试冲刺辅导，北文学校是非常著名的学校，那么北文学校在CET考试辅导当中有哪些优势？王长喜：从北文学校来讲，现在几乎是聚集了前面所有的优秀老师。

这是我们在CET的另外一方面我们的优势，也就是说我们目前已经出版过100多种书。

这100多种书里面包含了大量的资料，从资料储备上讲，一个是从资料储备上我们占有优势，一个是老师我们占很大的优势。

主持人：离四六级开考只有几天的时间了，那么在这几天里头应该怎么样安排好时间，进行最有效的学习，取得最好的成绩，是广大网友最关心的问题。

有些网友问，阅读很一般，在余下的时间里应该怎么样复习阅读，是不是应该拼命的做阅读，还是可以背一些作文，有没有什么帮助？王长喜：其实这里面是三个问题，第一个问题，九天了我们应该怎么复习，从时间安排来说，这九天的时间我们还是要做模拟试题，这是第一个，第二个也可以听一下串讲这种类型的，那么涉及到串讲的时候，就涉及到了关于作文，就是第二个问的问题，从作文来讲背范文起到一定的作用，但是不能够起到决定性的作用，我们背范文，我们从作文来讲，应当是分三个层次，如果是好的学生，他应当按照审题，然后写提纲，再去写文的正文，按照这种思路，这种思路适合于高端的学生，另外还有中等的学生，就适合背句型，感觉程度最差的才背范文。

刚才这个网友问的问题，就是背范文在迫不得已的情况下才去背范文，因为背范文的风险最大，刚才我们讲的三种，高端的学生风险最小，中段的居中，那么低端的学生风险最大，因为一旦出来的题与你所背的不一样，那么得分就不会很高，但是我们实在是没办法了，那么要去背范文，所以对于范文的这种做法，应该正确的认识，从心理上都有准备，有的同学问，背范文，可以达到及格分数吗？这也是两说的，一如果你背的范文和出题的方向是一致的，你的及格分可能会达到10分甚至是12分，如果你背的范文，跟出题完全不一致，那么最后可能会得3－5分，这里面还涉及到关于作文的技巧问题，背范文不是一个完全的技巧，只能是作为一项准备。

2、长喜英语四级预测翻译(10篇)

Part IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2.1儒家思想由孔子（Confucius）在春秋时期创立，并迅速成为中国文化的核心内容之一。

儒家重视道德和人与人之间的关系，着力于关注人类社会的秩序的和谐安定；对于虚无飘渺的神灵（illusory divine）世界，尽量采取回避的态度，或按照自己的观念加以改造而得到强化。

儒学对中国文化产生了巨大的影响，其价值观念渗透在中国人民的生活、思想和习俗中。

Confucius established the Confucian school of thought during the Spring and Autumn Period. Confucianism quickly became one of the pillars of Chinese culture. Confucian philosophy attaches great importance to ethics and interpersonal relationships and is concerned about the harmony and stability of the order of human society. It adopts the attitude of trying as much as possible to evade the illusory divine world or intensifying the concept through the transformation of divine world according to one’s own ideology. Confucianism has had a great influence on Chinese culture with its values permeating the life, thinking and customs of the Chinese people.2汉语是中国汉民族使用的语言，汉语历史悠久，在3000多年前就有了相当成熟的文字。

M: I hear you are thinking about moving back into the dorm next semester.W: Who told you that? I‟d never give up my apartment.Q: What does the woman mean?12. M: I can‟t understand why Mary didn‟t telephone me.W: She did. Didn‟t I tell you? She said she was sorry she couldn‟t come for dinner, but hoped to be able to next time she came to town.Q: What does the woman say about Mary?13. W: Y ou can change planes in either Chicago or Denver.M: Y ou mean there‟s not a direct flight from New Y ork to Phoenix?Q: Where does the man want to go?14. W: Will Jim be able to come to the meeting?M: I don‟t know yet. When I phoned just now, his friend said he had taken his girlfriend out to the movies.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?15. M: Where can I learn more about your health and fitness training program? I think I would like to join your club.I really haven‟t taken very good care of myself.W: I will have you speak with the new account director.Q: What is the man going to do next?16. W: Hello, Mr. Green. I‟ve something to tell you. Would you mind if I called on you?M: Not at all. When would you like to come?Q: What does the woman want to do?17. M: Kathy, I want to hang this new picture, do you have a hammer I can borrow?W: No. But you could use this old shoe.Q: What does Kathy suggest the man do with the old shoe?18. W: I hope I haven‟t made this dish too hot for you.M: Too hot for me? It couldn‟t be. I love spicy food.Q: What does the man mean?Now you will hear the two long conversations.Conversation OneM: Morning, Alice. Still having problems with your faucet?W: No, got that fixed. But I have another headache — trying to make a decision about credit cards. Well, I need one but which one?M: Y es, that is tricky, especially since the rates are not standard.W: That‟s right. What people don‟t realize is that the credit associations like Visa and MasterCard don‟t issue credit cards or set terms and interest rates as individual banks do.M: So you will need to investigate what interest rates are charged by different issuers.W: Yes, also how the rates are actually calculated, I think.M: Alice, you should remember to ask them what rules you must follow to maintain these rates. If you don‟t pay off your bill, all new charges will begin rising immediately.W: Y es, that‟s another problem and banks charge varying amounts for annual membership, late payments and exceeding your credit line.M: Y ou know, I read somewhere that 70% of people with credit cards pay interest on their purchases and only about 2% of the cardholders knew the interest rate they were being charged. Nearly all credit card debt carries an interest rate of 24% or more.W: Wow, I guess I should ask a few hard questions.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What’s the woman’s problem?20. Why is it important for the woman to know her grace period?21. What will the woman probably do next?Conversation TwoM: Hi, Susan, do you have anything planned for this Saturday?W: Uh, I‟m kind of busy. Why do you a sk?M: Oh, I was wondering if you‟d like to get together and do something, like watch a movie or take a walk down by the lake.W: I‟d love to, but I‟m really going to be busy all day on Saturday.M: What do you have going on that day?W: First, my mom asked me to help clean the house in the morning, and then I have a dentist appointment at 12:30. I can‟t miss that because I‟ve canceled twice before.M: Well, what about after that?W: Well, I‟m going to be running around all day. After the dentist appointmen t, I need to meet Julie at 2:00 to help her with her science project that‟s due on Monday morning at school.M: Okay, but are you free after that?W: Hardly. Then I have to pick up my brother from soccer practice at 4:30, and my mom asked me to cook dinner for the family at 5:30. I feel like a slave sometimes. Then, I have to clean the dishes and finish reading my history assignment. Who knows how long that‟ll take.M: Wow, sounds like you‟re going to have a full day. Hey listen, why don‟t I come over later in the evening, and we can make some popcorn and watch a movie.W: Oh, that‟d be great, but our video machine is broken.M: Huh. Well, let‟s just play a game or something.W: Sounds good, but give me a call before you come. My mom might try to come up with something else for me to do.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. Where does Susan have to go at 12:30?23. When is Susan going to meet Julie?24. What will Susan do after she cooks dinner?25. Why can’t the speakers watch a video at Susan’s house?Section BPassage OneNext time you bring your kids in for a checkup, don‟t be surprised if the doctor asks about their tastes and entertainment. 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 play, website they visit on the Internet, whether they view R-rated videos with the company of their parents, what music they like and what books they read. Doctors are worried that kids who spend too much time in front of the tube don‟t get enough exercise and can become overweighted. The Academy is also concerned that the message the 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 Doctor Marien Barren, who chair 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 could have a quiet place to read, study, play or just relax.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What unusual question may doctors ask when giving kids a checkup next time?27. What does the academy suggest children under age two should do?28. What do we learn about children’s bedrooms from the report?Passage T woAn allowance is an important tool for teaching kids how to budget, save and make their own decisions. Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly. How large an allowance is appropriate? Experts say there is no right amount. Actual amounts differ from region to region, and from family to family. To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work up a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenditures such as movies and snacks. Next, include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare, and school supplies. “If you make the child responsible for these …bills‟,” says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist, “he or she will learn to budget for necessary exp enditures.” Finally, add some extra money to make saving possible. If you can, keep your child‟s allowance in line with that of his friends. A child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers can feel left out. It can be tough, but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to a child‟s daily chores. Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of a family. Y ou might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home, which can develop his or her initiative.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. What is the passage mainly about?30. What do the experts say about the appropriate allowance for a child?31. What do experts advise?Passage ThreeWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology. With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today‟s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memories.In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medic ine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medic ine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on — in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.32. Which is the main cause for human death now according to the passage?33. In the speaker’s opinion, in which aspect does today’s most important advance in technology lie?34. Why humans may live longer in the future?35. What can we learn from the passage?Section CPocket electronic dictionaries, popular with students, are raising concern among local educators. Used primarilyby students studying English, it contains dictionaries and general information. The products range in price from several hundred yuan to several thousand, depending on the functions “The electronic dictionary lightens both my school bag and my work load,” said a middle school student. “Most of my classmates use electronic dictionaries for the convenience.” he said.Even some teachers defend electronic dictionaries. “Electronic dictionaries often allow students to read more,” said an English teache r. “they prefer to look up words they don‟t understand without having to leaf through a dictionary. They often find ordinary dictionaries are too complicated.”However, educators have expressed some concerns about the potential risks of allowing students to use these products.“The definitions are simplified and somewhat unclear compared with those in ordinary print dictionaries” said an official with an education commission. “Most of these devices do not include sample sentences which are of vital importance if a student is to learn correct usage.” he said.Another teacher provided an amusing example of what can happen when a student does not use a proper dictionary. “One of my students wrote in a composition …He asked her to marry him, but she garbaged him,‟ he said. I questioned him about his use of the noun …garbage‟ in this context and discovered that he wanted to use the verb …refuse‟, but he was not sure of its meaning, then he looked it up in a cheap dictionary, and saw refuse garbage!。

You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below：1、低碳生活方式受到人们的欢迎2、低碳生活的意义3、我们应当……Recently, low-carbon becomes a high-frequency and fashionable word which gets the greatest concern in the world. Low-carbon life means a kind of lifestyle in which people do their best to reduce energy consumption and carbon greenhouse gas emissions.It is of vital importance for the whole world to practice the low-carbon lifestyle. Firstly, our natural resources and energy are limited; therefore, it is absolutely necessary for us to save and protect them. Secondly, in order to protect our environment from serious greenhouse effect, we need a low-carbon emission. It is low-carbon life that enables our next generations to live a better and superior life.What we should bear in mind is that the earth is common home. Thus, every one is well advised to practice this lifestyle and there are several ways for us to do this. Firstly, every one is expected to cultivate their awareness of saving energy. Then, we are also hoped to help our families and friends to live a low-carbon life. Only by doing so can we hope to create a world where all humans enjoy a clean and tidy environment. (185words)2. 与前文相关主题Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China1．中国的污染的现状2．导致污染的因素3．解决的办法It is reported that ten big cities in China are being ranked among the top twenty cities with the highest pollution index in the world. This means it is high time we did something to bring the situation under control.Many factors are contributing to the deteriorating situation: industrial wastes pumped into the air, the lakes and rivers; a increasing number of automobiles crowding into the streets; the widespread use of plastic bags etc.To my view, stiffer laws and regulations must be implemented to check pollution. Industries that release wastes without permission should be heavily fined. Cars should be equipped to minimize the exhaust they release into the air. And the use of plastic bags and disposable meal boxes should be banned. What’s more, the media should play an important role in implanting a sense of environmental consciousness into people’s mind.If everybody works toward a common goal of making the environment better, we can create a cleaner and lovelier world for us and for the coming generation.3 世博主题：Better City, Better Life(太长，用时需改短)Nowadays, with the fast development of economy of the world, many cities become bigger and bigger and many modern cities are appearing. Thus, we face the complex problem: Urbanization. Urbanization has been a subject of heated discussion for a long time. Some people are in favor, while others are opposed.In my opinion, urbanization benefits human beings rather than do harm to them.Two reasons may account for my conclusion.Firstly, urbanization enriches our life.We can imagine what will happen without convenient traffic system, without big department stores, without KTVs and many other entertainments? To some extent, it is impossible for human beings to live in this world. Urbanization make it possible for us to enjoy our life more than before, Also, urbanization quicken the pace of science, especially in the communication field, in the early time, if we want to connect with our family members or friends, the only way we can choose is writing letters. But urbanization changed this situation, we can talk with the friends in the foreign countries with our any difficulties through the Internet, we gain whatever information we need on the internet. These conveniences are brought by the urbanization.Secondly, urbanization also raise our country economy.As we all know, the policy of Reform and Opening give our country a golden opportunity to develop our economy, we have a direct feeling about the dramatic increasing of our living standard, many productions that we cannot afford in the past time can be owned in today. This phenomenon proves that urbanization benefits our life basically. With the fast step of urbanization, many job opportunities are supplied in the occupation market which makes many rural migrant workers get a solid work in the urban area. They also contribute to the economic development in the urban area. These prosperities are definitely brought by the urbanization.I live in Shanghai, and it is a typical big city in China. I found that we also have many negative sides of urbanization. For instance, we can talk to the friends thousands miles away, but we don’t know our neighbors in the high-rises; many migrant workers do not enjoy the same profits and rights as the permanent unban residents and this will make their living without and insurance system.But we don’t need to be so pessimistic of the situation at hand. It is evident that the advantages of urbanization outweigh the disadvantages. What we should do is to remain the positive side , meanwhile to conquer the negative side. Our governmentwill also introduce many effective policies to narrow this contradictory. So we have enough reasons to believe the situation will become better and better so that we can reach our aim ”better city, better life ” !3. 国学热 SinologyDirection: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of “The rehabilitation of Sinology”.

四级预测试卷及答案

一：Part I WritingIs Offering Seats Compulsory for Young Passengers?In recent years, there have been many disputes about young’s giving seats to the elderly on buses. Some people maintain that the elderly are physically weak and are more prone to falling and getting hurt when standing on a moving bus. Therefore, young people, especially those taking the priority seats, have obligation to offer the seats to senior citizens to prevent potential hurt.Some people, however, think the other way. Young passengers, they say, pay for the bus trip, so they enjoy the same right as senior citizens to use seats on the bus. Besides, many young riders, though physically strong, can’t escape being exhausted by a day’s work and are in great need of the seats on buses too. Forcing them to give up the seats seems inhuman and unfair.In my view, whether it is compulsory for the young to give up their seats to needy riders depends on the kind of seats they take. In general, it is a moral requirement for young passengers on regular seats to do so. However, for those sitting on priority seats, it is a legal obligation.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. D)2. B)3. A)4. B)5. D)6. C)7.

I’ve told you several times, but you just turn a deaf ear to me. Can you listento my words for once?M: Shut up! You’re driving me mad with your constant complaining.Q: What does the woman complain about the man?12. W: Bill, will you tell me Mary’s phone number?M: Well, it’s just at the tip of my tongue, but I have to look it up in my notebook.Q: What does the man mean?13. M: My father wants me to see a new kid — a guy named Tom. How about going with me?W: Okay. I might as well go. Nothing better to do.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?14. W: Have Michael and Joan Smith had a baby yet? They’ve been married for two years now.M: Michael indicated to me that they’d postpone having children until he gets his law degree.Q: How do the Smiths feel about children?15. W: Mr. David, you are such a nice young man and you have been taking good care of me ever since I first arrived here.I shall always feel grateful to you for everything you’ve done for me.M: It’s very kind of you to say so, but really I don’t think I had done nearly enough.Q: What does the man mean?16. M: I’ve been working out at the gym since February so… I’d been waiting to get in better shape.W: You look terrific! Seems like all your hard work has paid off.Q: What does the woman mean?17. M: Why did Margaret call yesterday?W: She wanted to pick up some magazines she lent me.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?18. M: You know I had to leave the basketball game halfway through last night, so I never found out who won.W: Well, don’t look at me. I was just a few minutes behind you.Q: What does the woman mean?Now you will hear the two long conversations.Conversation OneW: Well, it seems to me that everybody’s talking about E-mail nowadays. When you exchange cards with others, you’ll feel out of time and start at a disadvantage if your card hasn’t an E-mail address on it.M: I wouldn’t be surprised, because, you know, it’s the easiest way to communicate with other users over a network. W: Is it? But I was told that we must set up an E-mail system on the network before we can communicate with other users. Is that true?M: Yes, it’s not tough to create such a system. However, you need some hardware and software to support it. W: Let me know the hardware needed first.M: A computer and a line that connects your computer with the Internet.W: All right. I was told that I need an account for my E-mail. Where can I get it?M: You can contact an ISP, I mean an Internet Service Provider, to get an account.W: How much do I have to pay for it?M: It varies. You can also get a free E-mail account if you don’t have to cons ider too much for the security of your mails. I know many people prefer free E-mails and they say their correspondence through that kind of account doesn’t involve commercial information needed to be strictly kept secret. You can get such a free account simply at home if you have got access to a website with such a service.W: It’s so convenient. I may prefer the free E-mail. What about the software?M: You don’t need any additional software. Just the IE, the Internet Explorer, bound with Windows, the operating system.W: Thank you so much for your help.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. According to the man, why is E-mail so popular?20. Which is the disadvantage of a free E-mail account?21. What is the necessary software to support the E-mail system?22. What will the woman probably do after the conversation?Conversation TwoW: Hi, Peter.M: Hi, Laura.W: How was your final?M: Absolutely no idea. Anyway, it’s just wonderful to have finished the exam.W: Yeah, to sleep in every morning.M: Well, I’ve got a lot to do before I leave for Chicago. I’ve got a lot of things I can’t take back with me and I don’t know what to do with them. I’m wondering if I can sell them to someone before going back to Chicago.Perhaps you could give me some advice.W: Well, it depends on what sort of things they are.M: There are quite a lot. I have a computer which is second-hand and not worth much. What I really want to get rid of is the furniture, the fridge and other kitchen stuff. Oh, there are some clothes and books as well.W: I see. Well, there are several alternatives. First of all, you could put up notices around the university about the books, you know, on the notice boards in the student union building, and anywhere the second-and third-year students will see them. People are always keen to buy cheap textbooks.M: Then what should I say on the notices?W: Just put the titles, authors and prices you want. Don’t forget to put your phone number.M: That’s a good idea. What about the furniture?W: You could try the same thing, but usually students are away all summer so they don’t want to buy furniture now.Another place to try might be a second-hand shop. Someone from the shop will usually come around and give you a free quote, and th en you can decide. But normally you won’t get much money for that sort of stuff. Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23. Which items does Peter want to sell?24. What is Laura’s suggestion about the books?25. What does Laura think of the second-hand shop?Section BPassage OneRemembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.When you hear a person’s name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.Ask the other person to recite and repeat.You can let other people help you remember their names. After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and p ronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, “I’m working to reme mber names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?”Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng —tall, black hair.” To reinforce your associati ons, write them on a small card as soon as possible.When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names.Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That’s fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others — an automatic review for you.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?27. What may you do if you can’t remember someone’s name?28. What is it better to do when you meet a group of people?Passage TwoSports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal shoul d be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. A nd best of all, it’s free.Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. Which is the speaker most probably in favor of?30. What do we know about golf from the passage?31. Why does the speaker use power walking as an example?32. W hat is the speaker’s main purpose of giving this speech?Passage ThreeYou’re about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your patent’s money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do yo u ever stop to wonder why you’re going?Relax. You’re making the right decision. First of all, you’ll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. College is also a lot of fun —after you graduate, you’ll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduates earn about twice the income of those who never attended college.Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, JohnsonReview is here to help you every step ofthe way.*Researching Schools. To us, the most important decision you’ll make is to choose the school that reallyfits you best — not the one that is the most competitive or has the best-equipped rooms.*Applying to School. On , you’ll find hundreds of actual college applicat ions and links to many more.*Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learningthe ways t o get financial aid. If you really do your research, you’ll learn that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost.For more information, call 600-3681 or visit . Wherever you go, have a nice trip! Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. How many reasons for going to college does the speaker mention in the passage?34. What does the speaker advise you to do to pay the high cost of college?35. What’s the speaker’s purpose of giving this talk?Section CMillions of people are enrolled in evening adult education programs across America. Community colleges have become popular and their enrolments have increased rapidly. Large universities are offering more courses in the evenings for adult students. In this way, the demand for more education is being met.One reason for this is that many older people are changing their professions. They are looking for different careers. Another reason is that repair costs of many household things greatly increased. Adults are taking courses like plumbing and electrical repair. This way they hope that the high costs for repairs can be avoided.Advanced technology is the most important reason for the rise in adult education. Engineers, businessmen are taking adult education classes. They have found that more education is needed to do their jobs well. Various courses are offered, among which foreign languages, computers and communication courses are popular. Accounting and business courses are also taken by many adult students. Some students attend classes to earn degrees. Others take courses for the knowledge and skills they can receive. The lives of many people have been enriched because of adult education.二：Part I Writing 【范文】Should We Give Gifts to Teachers on Teachers’ Day?Whether we should give gifts to teachers on Teachers’ Day has become a topic of debate in China recently. Some people say we should for two reasons. The first reason is that gifts presented to teachers show our respect and appreciation for teachers’ contribution. Second is that teachers deserve the gifts and it has been a tradition for thousands of years.Some people, on the contrary, say we should ban gifts on Teacher’s Day. The festival, they say, has been materialized as more students’ parents turn to expensive gifts or even cash to offer teachers for some personal interests. It has put much pressure on parents that are not rich. Worse still, it may lead to the corruption of teachers.In my view, gifts still serve as a good way to express people’s love and respect toward hono urable teachers and should not be banned. However, people should give small and meaningful rather than expensive gifts to teachers for the sake of students, parents and teachers. After all, it is not the price of the gift but just the heart you put into it that is meaning and important.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. C)2. B)3. D)4. A)5. B)6. D)7.

What’s the matter?M: I don’t know... things seem to be worse. Sometimes I feel my girlfriend seems to take me for granted. If onlyI had a job or something ——then at least I’d feel I’m really doing something.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?12. W: You never speak English unless you absolutely have to. I’ll h elp you if you promise to speak nothing butEnglish all the time.M: All right. Maybe I’ll do that. It’s the only way I’ll be able to learn English fast enough, I guess.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?13. M: How long does the journey take if I go by bus?W: It depends on the traffic. I think the Airport Express is your best bet.Q: Where is the man probably going to?14. W: Has Andrew ever worked on a newspaper before?M: No, not exactly, but he used to edit a magazine in his spare time when he was in college.Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?15. W: There’ll be a meeting for the handicapped the week after next. They decided that every participant shouldwear a uniform.M: Yeah. I’m the right man up to the designing job.Q: What is the man going to do?16. M: Do you really want that much? You usually have only a cup of milk for breakfast at home.W: Well, it’s different. I don’t have to fix breakfast here. When you don’t have to cook, you enjoy the meal more.Q: What does the woman mean?17. M: You can teach Jim a more pleasant way. You’ll spoil his appetite.W: Maybe you’re right. I shouldn’t have blamed him before I taught him.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?18. W: Well, in my opinion, the news shows are extremely su perficial; they don’t tell you anything.M: Oh, I don’t know about that. I think the news reports are excellent. Presenting the news is what TV does best.Q: What does the man mean?Now you will hear the two long conversations.Conversation OneM: Lesley, again and again these days we hear the words “he’s on drugs” and many people feel that these illegal drugs are harmful and people should be prevented from getting hold of them in any way at all, because of the damage they can do. What do you feel about this?W: Oh, yes, you… you’ve got to have some sort of control, because it has been proved that these some sort of thing can do irreparable damage, and I know a horrible story about a 6-year-old kid who is in mental hospital now. Shewent to a party and she t ook something there and now she’s convinced she’s an orange and she won’t go out of the room for fear somebody’s going to crush her.M: Lesley, how widespread is the use of so-called illegal drugs in England?W: Well, as regards cannabis... um... I think as yet little is known about it. I think it may be a rash thing to legalize it now when so little is known, but it must be said that no positive harm has been proved.M: In view of hostility towards the so-called illegal drugs in things like newspapers and television, why do so many young people take drugs?W: Well, I think there are many reasons. One of the reasons is because of hostility. It’s the job of the younger generation to reject all the values of the older generation, and it’s just as well for huma n society that this is so, because otherwise we would never change it or make it better.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What does Lesley think drugs can do?20. What is the 6-year-old kid afraid of?21. Why would legalizing cannabis be unwise?22. According to Lesley, what is the job of the younger generation?Conversation TwoM: Ok, Amy. Before we can find the right man for you, just tell us what kind of person you’d like to date. Don’t be shy. W: Well, OK. I’ve n ever done this before. I feel kind of silly, but here goes. I guess I really like men who have a sense of humor. I love to laugh and be happy. That’s the most important thing. But I don’t like men who are really loud, I mean, I like men to laugh, but I don’t want them to sound like donkeys.M: OK, what else?W: Oh, I like men who are intelligent and open-minded. Those two things go together, don’t they? Good conversations are important. I love talking about books and movies and politics. I really hate men who think they’re always right, you know, the stubborn ones who won’t listen to new ideas. They always get into bad moods if you don’t agree with them. I don’t like men who are moody.M: Now, Amy, tell me about the perfect Saturday night date.W: Hmm. Well, he comes over to my place, and we cook dinner together. Then we put on some jazz, sit down to eat and talk about important things. Of course, he offers to help with the dishes. It really bothers me when a man won’t help clean up.M: Sounds romantic. OK. L ast question. Is there anything you really don’t like?W: Well, sure. I really don’t like men, or people, who don’t respect other people.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.23.What kind of men does Amy like to date?24. W hat do you know about the perfect Saturday night date in Amy’s mind?25. What is the most probable relationship between the two speakers?Section BPassage OneA year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift —＄7,000, a legacy from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. “It really made a difference when we were going under financially,” says Dave.But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches’ generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in others, it was more than $100,000.It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than $3 million — they were an elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They thrived on comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices before making a new purchase.Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn’t afford it. “Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything,” says their friend Sandy Van Weelden. “They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do them.”Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches had their farmland distributed. It was the Hatches’ wish that their legacy — a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cents — should enrich the whole community and last for generations to come.Neighbors helping neighbors —that was Ish and Arlene Hatch’s story.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What do we learn about the Fusses from the passage?27. What do we learn about the Hatches according to the speaker?28. Why would the Hatches routinely go from store to store?29. What can we learn from the passage?Passage TwoToo much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to l earn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.A second study, looking at nearly 1,000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don’t rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters may watch lots of TV.The study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2.5 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn’t have TVs in their bedrooms.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.30.What do we learn about the low-scoring group according to the California study?31. What is the researchers’ understanding of the New Zealand study results?32. What can we learn from the end of the passage?Passage ThreeFor many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause o f their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely.In this speech I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is —politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg — the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority —someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress. So in the following speech I’ll suggest some ways out of the trap or find a solution for the parent-teen problems.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. Why does the speaker compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?34. Why do parents and teens want to be right?35. What will the speaker most probably discuss in the speech that follows?Section CThe Home Secretary, Charles Clarke, will today guarantee that the personal details contained on the national identity card will not go beyond those currently on passports. He will write the guarantee into the legislation which The bill specifies that only name, date and place of birth, gender, address, nationality and immigration status can be recorded on the ID database. The Home Secretary has promised that fresh legislation will have to be introduced if extra personal details such as health records, criminal records or other background information were added.Mr. Clarke will also promise that everyone will be able to access their entry on the national ID card database and see which organizations had been confirming their identity. At the same time ministers will table new government amendments to ensure that those who access the national ID cards register will not be able to tell who has a criminal record on the police national computer.The government has said that the cost of a combined 10-year passport will be 93 pounds. The Home Office has opened talks with departments likely to benefit from the introduction of the scheme to see if they can recoup some of the overall costs. The departments include work and retirement fund, health, transport and local councils.The Home Office minister, Andy Burnham, said scanners and readers needed for the national identity card scheme would have to be introduced anyway to updepartments which would make savings as a result of the introduction of ID cards would make a contribution. The use of more secure identity confirmation systems would mean cuts in social security, housing benefits and council tax deception.三：Part I Writing 【范文】ID Registration Policy for Mobile Phone UsersPeople were not required to show and have their identities registered when they bought a sim card before. Except some sim cards designated for particular people, you could get almost what you wish — no matter what。
