Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph fromwhich the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Eachparagraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the correspondingletter on Answer Sheet 2.Good Things Come to Those Who Actively WaitA) In highly volatile markets, a company’s success or failure is often attributed to luck. Turbulentmarkets throw out opportunities whose timing, nature and magnitude managers can neither predict nor control. The same holds true for threats. In such a competitive casino, you place your bets and hope for the best. It is better to be lucky than good.B) For the past six years I have studied more than 20 pairs of comparable companies in unpredictableindustries such as telecommunications, airlines and enterprise software and in countries such as China and Brazil. By pairing similar companies, I showed how they responded differently to the same unforeseen threats and opportunities.C) I found the more successful companies were luckier, in the sense that time and again they respondedmore effectively to unexpected shifts in regulation, technology, competition, macroeconomics or other volatile factors. Such luck is too important to leave to chance. The most successful companies exemplified “active waiting”, an approach to strategy in highly unpredictable markets that consists of anticipating and preparing for opportunities and threats that executives can neither fully predict nor control.D) But all opportunities are not equal. In volatile markets, companies face countless small andmid-sized opportunities and the periodic golden opportunity – a chance to create value disproportionate (不相称的) to resources invested in a short period of time. Typical golden opportunities include acquisition of a large competitor to gain global scale, such as the Royal Bank of Scotland’s acquisition of NatWest; explosive demand in an emerging market such as China or India; or pioneering a new product or service such as the iPod.E) Golden opportunities occur only when external circumstances throw open several windows ofopportunity at the same time. Consider the opportunity for middleware –software that links a company’s applications –which IBM and BEA converted into billion-dollar businesses. Several developments occurred at once: the internet created demand for software that could get applications to talk to one another; available technology was up to the task; early leaders such as NCR andNovell were distracted by other markets; the paucity (少量) of venture capital funding prevented many start-ups chasing the same market.F) Timing is everything in these circumstances. Had IBM or BEA entered the market a year or twoearlier, customers’ pain would have been less acute and the technology fix less developed. A few years later, and new entrants flush with venture capital cash might have established a lead.G) Managers can neither predict nor control golden opportunities. But they can prepare their companiesto capitalize on one when it arrives. The trick lies not in heroic efforts in the middle of golden opportunity, but in the quiet actions taken during periods of relative calm between the storms.H) Keep the priorities clear: In unpredictable markets, managers often try to hedge against everypossible contingency (突发状况) by running countless experiments and launching a flurry of new initiatives. This is a big mistake. Employees and managers are overwhelmed by multiple, often conflicting, priorities. In attempting to pursue too many priorities simultaneously, executives dissipate (浪费) resources and hinder co-ordination across units. Managers must exercise ruthless discipline in choosing a small number of objectives to pursue first, putting other valid concerns to one side for the time being. Equally important, they must decide what to stop doing to free up time, attention and resources to make sure the truly critical objectives are met.I) Conduct reconnaissance (事前考察) into the future: Prudent executives will consciously take steps toinvestigate a foggy future. First, they should send out probes in a few directions to broaden the search for opportunities rather than staking everything on a single way forward. Exploratory forays include investing in or partnering with start-ups, or running small-scale experiments to test the market. Second, when conducting reconnaissance, managers must remain alert to anomalies (反常) –new information that surprises them or conflicts with expectations. In turbulent markets, a manager’s mental map quickly becomes outdated, and anomalies provide clues as to where the map is wrong.J) Keep a reserve: During periods of relative calm, executives should build a war chest of cash to deploy quickly when a golden opportunity emerges. This requires restraint. Spreading a company’s chips across too many probes or doubling down on too many bets at the same time leaves little cash in reserve when a big opportunity comes along. To avoid this risk, senior executives should scrutinize (详查) the company’s resource allocation process, cap the number of probes, and increase investment only after explicit evaluation.K) Keep the troops battle-ready: During periods of active waiting, executives must push through operational improvements –cutting costs, strengthening distribution, improving products. More efficient rivals can survive storms that drown rivals. Operating improvements during the lulls (暂时平静) contribute to the war chest, but also build the credibility required to seize the golden opportunity. The Royal Bank of Scotland, for example, won NatWest because the Scottish bank’strack record of execution convinced the capital markets that it was the buyer most likely to make the deal work.L) Declare the main effort: One of the greatest challenges in active waiting is deciding when to commit reserves and go for broke (孤注一掷). Periodically, executives encounter an opportunity or threat so important that it demands the company’s full focus. Declaring it the main effort creates a sense of urgency, focuses the organization, prioritizes resource allocation and lays the groundwork for coordinated effort. Yet many executives say that this was the most difficult decision they ever made.Playing it safe in the short term can prove hazardous in the long term. Companies that pass on every golden opportunity will eventually find themselves eclipsed (遮蔽,使失色) by players that can both wait actively and strike decisively.M) Fortune favors the well prepared: In unpredictable markets, good luck is too important to leave to chance. By actively waiting in the lulls between major opportunities and threats, managers can increase their odds of seizing the moment.46. Managers should investigate the future to search for opportunities and identify gaps in the market.47. Periodic golden opportunity is a good chance for companies to quickly create more value thanresources invested.48. By making operational improvements during periods of active waiting, you can raise enough moneyand credibility to seize the golden opportunity.49. Managers should set aside enough money to fund major opportunities when they emerge rather thanspend too much money on too many smaller ones.50. Although golden opportunities are unpredictable and uncontrollable, managers can prepare theircompanies to catch one when it comes.51. Several developments occurred at the same time bringing all kinds of opportunities among whichgolden opportunities emerge.52. Declare that an opportunity is your company’s main effort in order to seize it faster than rivals.53. Successful companies were usually luckier in highly unpredictable markets, which showed goodexamples of “active waiting”.54. Managers must choose a small number of objectives to pursue first and decide what to give up tosave time, attention and resources for those truly critical tasks.55. IBM or BEA entered the IT market just in time to establish a lead.阅读Section B模拟训练(三)Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Section BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph fromwhich the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Eachparagraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the correspondingletter on Answer Sheet 2.How Dangerous Are Swans?A) Since ancient times and in many countries the swan has been a symbol of gracefulness and a favoritemotif for music, art, literature and legends. In Greek mythology, Zeus in the form of a swan courted Leda and fathered Apollo. One of Wagner's operas is woven around the old German story of Lohengrin, the knight of the swan. "Swan Lake" is the famous ballet by Tschaikovsky. Those huge birds float like great white flowers on the water. Their extremely long snaky necks allow them to reach deep down and feed on the roots and stems of underwater plants or to be hoisted high like periscopes to spy over the country.B) However, at nesting time swans usually become aggressive. Habitats with abundant food and withsuitable nesting sites may be highly fought over. Those intruding on their territory, including large wildfowl, land mammals and people, may be warded off with an aggressively fast swimming approach often accompanied with hissing and busking which is a threat display where the swans neck is curved back and its wings are half raised. Mute swans tend to use the power of their wings to attack rather than their beaks. Mute swans often defend in pairs, says Julia Newth, research officer at the Wildlife and Wetlands Trust. The male swan is especially dangerous, even vicious. Children and dogs coming near the nest are often badly beaten or dragged into the water and drowned. A blow from his powerful wing has been known to break a man's leg.C) In 2012, a man has drowned after being attacked by a swan, which knocked him out of his kayak andstopped him swimming to shore. So how dangerous are these graceful white birds?D) Anthony Hensley, 37, worked for a company that provided swans to keep geese away from property.On Saturday morning, the married father of two set out in a kayak across a pond at a residential complex in Des Plaines, just outside Chicago, where he was tending the birds. One of the swans charged his boat, capsizing it, says Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, whose deputies investigated the death. Mr. Hensley tried to swim to shore but eyewitnesses told the sheriff's investigators the swan appeared to have actively blocked him. "I find myself still scratching my head," says Sheriff Dart."This truly is one of the ones that keep you from saying “I've seen everything now.” According to ornithologists, the swan's aggressive reaction is typical for the species, the mute swan, whendefending a nest. "It's presumably a male swan and it's presumably paired, and it's set up home for the spring," says Chris Perrins, Her Majesty's Swan Warden and a retired Oxford ornithologist. "It's going to defend that territory." The males are fierce in defense of their nests, especially during the spring nesting season - April to June.E) In April 2010, a swan on the River Cam in England made the news after repeatedly attacking rowers.Over the last few years the bird has attacked any boat which gets too near, even chasing after motor boats and capsizing canoes. It was nicknamed Mr. Asbo, named after the Anti-Social Behavior Orders issued by UK courts at the time. Two years later, there are still calls for it to be removed from the river, as the seasonal attacks go on. Attempts had also been made to move him further up river, away from traffic, however he always found his way back. Rower Tony Smythe, 43, said: 'It had become a really serious problem and we wanted him to be removed before he injured someone so badly that they had to go to hospital. 'He has been here several summers and every year his behavior seems to get worse. 'Lately he has been attacking every boat that goes past. If you are sculling in a boat on your own there is nothing you can do when he comes for you. ” The Conservators of the River Cam, who manage the waterway, agreed the swan's behavior was getting "out of control" and he and his should be moved with his mate. Now, the pair has been taken to a site more than 50 miles away and outside the county before the spring nesting season begins. “We’re relieved he has finally gone.” said Rower Tony Smythe.F) But such incidents are very rare, says John Huston of the Abbotsbury Swannery in Dorset, wherethere are 1,000 swans but no recorded attacks on humans in the colony's 600-year history. "If you approach a swan nest on the river, they might get aggressive and hiss and flap their wings, but the danger is over-rated and it's a myth that they will break your leg or arm with their wings.”“They are not that strong and it's mostly show and bluster." He says he has spent many years handling swans and never been injured, just received the odd bruise. "They do fairly vigorously defend their little patch this time of year. Once the eggs are hatched he'll stay with the family and defend it. "They have a reputation for being a bit aggressive, but it's only that it's a matter of size, I guess.Presumably a duck wouldn't attack you because you look a bit big."G) John Faaborg, a biologist at the University of Missouri and president of the American Ornithologists'Union, has known people who were hurt by geese attacks. "And I am sure that swans can do major damage given that they are so big." In fact, mute swans are the largest waterfowl in the world, weighing up to 13kg (28lbs) and with a wing span of up to 2.4m (7.9ft). They are among the heaviest flying birds. In the case in Chicago, he says, it's understandable that someone in a river with their clothes and shoes on was unable to overpower a swan and swim to shore. So people should be aware that a large swan can give a thump, and the best advice is to stay away from the nest, which is often a place along the bank or shore where the reeds are flattened and the female is sitting.46. The sheriff of the Cook County assigned his deputies to investigate the death of a man caused by anaggressive swan which is truly a puzzle.47. The swan, a symbol of gracefulness, sometimes would become very bad-tempered and evendangerous.48. People should be warned not to approach swans’ territory during the nesting season. (G)49. The swan and its mate have been moved to a suitable receptor site which is 50 miles away from theirCambridge home.50. A scientist who studied birds believed that the murderer must be a male swan who was defending itsnest.51. It is also believed that swans, the largest waterfowls and the heaviest flying birds, are big enough todo major damage.52. The swan on the River Cam in England has reportedly attacked river users on a number ofoccasions.53. The swan’s danger is thought to be exaggerated and in reality a swan is unable to break a man’s legwith its wings.54. Swans are very big waterfowls that feed chiefly on plants.55. A swan would curve its neck, half raise its wings, hiss aloud as a threat and swim fast towardintruders to drive them away from their territory.阅读Section B模拟训练(四)Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Section BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph fromwhich the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Eachparagraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the correspondingletter on Answer Sheet 2.A) In 1843, a young student named William Ebb Ellis at Rugby School in England, seemingly tired ofthe restrictions placed on him during a traditional game of association football, picked up the ball and ran with it down the field. While Ellis had violated the golden rule of football, that it is illegal to touch the ball with one’s hands, the students and staff at Rugby were intrigued by the prospect of a game which involved carrying, rather than dribbling with, the ball. The result was the game we now call Rugby. By 1845, a set of rules had been developed. Large goal posts were erected on the school’s playing field, and it was decided that players who touched the ball down over the goal line would be permitted a try at goal, and would receive points for successfully kicking the ball over the cross-bar which lay between the posts.B) The game of Rugby quickly increased in popularity. More schools, and later private clubs, wereintrigued by the sport and leagues began to develop. The school’s invention was even exported to Canada. There are records of the sport being played at Trinity College in Montreal by the 1860s.C) Like several other popular sports including ice hockey and basketball, American football as we knowit today first developed on college campuses. In the 1870s, colleges began to challenge each other toa game which followed almost exactly the rules laid down in Rugby thirty years earlier. In 1874,Harvard and the Canadian college McGill faced each other in their first game of Rugby, and Harvard challenged Yale a year later.D) Intrigued by the game, representatives from Harvard, Columbia, Princeton and Yale met to discussthe adaptation of the rules of Rugby to suit their own needs. The meeting became known as the Massoit Convention of 1876. The delegates made only minor adjustments to the rules, essentially preserving the original principles of the sport. At the same meeting, the representatives agreed to form the Intercollegial Football Association.E) The game finally began to evolve into the modern version of American football under the influenceof Walter Camp, head coach at Yale. Camp decided that the number of players on each team ought to be reduced from fifteen to eleven. He also introduced a new scoring system in which a “touchdown”would be worth six points; a principle that still exists today.F) It was also Walter Camp who introduced the most significant difference between Rugby andAmerican football; the system of “downs”, in which a team is only given a certain number of plays to cover a particular area of the field before they are forced to give up possession of the ball to their opponents. In addition, one of the fundamental principles of Rugby, that the ball can only be passed backwards, was eliminated from the new version of the rules. Camp would remain a strong influence on the development of the sport until his death in the 1920s.G) This new version of the game caught on quickly at other colleges, and games were soon being playedaccording to Camp’s new rules. Unfortunately, the development of Camp’s system of “downs” led to increasingly vicious tackling, and observers soon became concerned about whether or not the sport was safe enough to be played on college campuses. Their concerns were not without foundation; a number of players had been seriously injured, or even killed, playing the sport by the early 1900s.Eighteen players were reportedly killed in 1905 alone. One of the observers who expressed concern for the safety of the students was none other than Theodore Roosevelt, the President of the United States then, who implored Walter Camp to save the sport by reassessing the rules and suggesting alternatives which might make the game safer.H) Adaptations introduced to make the game safer included the introduction of a neutral zone and a totalban on interlocking formations, in which the players would link arms to create a human barrier with the aim of protecting a teammate who was in possession of the ball. It was also decided that at least six players should be on the line of scrimmage (争球)(this later became seven) at the beginning ofa play, to help prevent vicious tackling. The adaptations were successful, as the number of deathsand injuries decreased dramatically. The introduction of the new rules made the game recognizable as the modern version of the sport.I) The first professional football player is thought to have been Yaleman William Heffelfinger, whoaccepted money to play for the Alleghery Athletic Association against their rivals, the Pittsburgh Athletic Club, in 1892. However, the first professional league was not established until 1910.Between 1920 and 1912, the administration of professional leagues was disorganized to say the least.Players had little incentive to remain loyal to a single team, and often acted as “freelance” athletes, selling their services to a team temporarily before moving quickly to another club. By 1920, it was decided that it would be in the best interests of the sport to develop a body that would oversee a major football league and bring some organization to the game. It was with this intention that delegates from major teams came together in Canton, Ohio, to discuss the future of the sport. They formed the American professional Football Association, renamed the National Football league (NFL) by 1922. The representatives drafted a constitution and made a number of important decisions, including a motion that would reduce the constant movement of players and encourage team loyalty.Jim Thorpe, who had found fame as an athlete and as a football and baseball player, was the first person to be elected president of the new organization.J) The NFL flourished in the remainder of the 20th century, and American football became increasinglypopular, even stepping outside of the shadow of baseball in the years following World War II. This massive increase in popularity owed a lot to technological developments, most notably in 1939, when the game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Philadelphia Eagles made history as the first to be broadcast on television. Indeed, although over six hundred NFL players had fought for their country and twenty-one had been killed, the sport recovered quickly from the disruption imposed by the War, and an increasing number of Americans began to enjoy games, as more families began to purchase television sets.46. Many schools and private clubs were keen on the game of Rugby and leagues began to develop.47. Water Camp was the person who introduced the most significant difference between Rugby andAmerican football.48. During a traditional game of association football, it was illegal to touch the ball with one’s hands.49. The representatives from Harvard, Columbia, Princeton and Yale met to discuss the adaptation of therules of Rugby to suit their own needs.50. Jim Thorpe was the first person to be elected President of the American Professional FootballAssociation by 1922.51. At the Massoit Convention of 1876, the Intercollegial Football Association was agreed to form.52. Like ice hockey and basketball, American football first developed on college campuses.53. American football became more popular because of technological developments.54. Because the development of Camp’s system of “downs”led to increasingly vicious tackling,observers soon became concerned about the safety of the sport.55. Adaptations introduced in order to make the game safer and successfully decreased the number ofdeaths and injuries.翻译专题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.中华文明是世界古代文明中始终没有中断、连续5000多年发展至今的文明。

全国英语等级考试四级听力辅导材料全国英语等级考试四级听力辅导材料说到英语听力,相信许多小伙伴们都会觉得有压力吧,毕竟分值的比重较大,以下是店铺为大家搜索整理的全国英语等级考试四级听力辅导材料,希望对正在关注的您有所帮助!材料一Protesters Join Funeral of Former British Prime MinisterAs the funeral procession made its way to the cathedral, opponents of Thatcher lined the route...Turning their backs on her coffin as it made its way through central London.They chanted “waste of money” in protest at the millions of dollars spent on Wednesday’s funeral and waved anti-Thatcher signs.While in power, Thatcher became an enemy of many on the left. A Conservative prime minister, she pursued privatization and deregulation, cut taxes on the rich and attacked trade unions.On Wednesday, her opponents said they had not forgiven her.“It’s a mark of not wanting to be involved in the pageantry really and the celebration of her life - because I don’t think it was a life to celebrate," said one woman.“I’m here and I’m so happy today that she’s dead," said a man.Wednesday was not the first protest since Thatcher’s death.On Saturday, her opponents poured into London’s Trafalgar Square to “celebrate.”They said they were protesting against her politics and the legacy they say she’s left behind - rising inequality and highcosts of living in Britain.Many Britons have been critical of those “celebrating” - but Thatcher’s opponents they say it’s a good chance to address divisions in British society.A man handing out pamphlets Wednesday for a talk on Thatcher’s legacy said, “Britain is still a very divided society. She’s probably one of the most controversial prime ministers. So hopefully by having this protest and by raising the issue and showing there’s an alternative people will begin to tackle her legacy.”Tha tcher’s death, he hopes, will ignite fresh debate about Britain’s future.材料二Detroit Government Retirees Struggle to Keep BenefitsDon Taylor spent 26 years of his life as a police officer in Detroit, the city where he was born and raised. It was a dangerous job, but one he is fond of.It also provided a dependable paycheck, as well as a guaranteed pension and health care coverage in retirement. Or so he thought. “There’s a dispute on the pensions, you know," he said.“Borrowing a billion dollars to fund your pension, yes the pension is funded, but now it’s done through more debt," said Eric Scorsone of Michigan State University. He is on the team helping the city of Detroit emerge from its fiscal crisis.“It’s probably as bad as any city has ever see n in terms of a fiscal crisis. My part is to work on tax and revenue forecasting and tax issues in general for the city as they work on a plan to move forward," he said.The plan includes figuring out how to pay for retirementpensions funded with borrowed money, and how to pay for health care plans for current and retired public sector employees.“The city really should be paying hundreds of millions of dollars more than it is right now, but there’s no money to do it, so the question is how do you fund that liability or do you reduce the liability by reducing benefits," said Scorsone.Taylor says the pensions and health care plans of retirees are already modest.“There are a lot of misconceptions too that in the city of Detroit, that the people’s benefits are “Cadillac” plans, and they’re overpaid, where the average pension is only $30,000," he said.“I cannot believe that they could do any more cutting," said retired Detroit police officer Greg Trozak, who has two sons on the police force. While he is concerned about cuts to his own benefits, he is more worried about future benefits.“I’m sure the active people are going to be hurting a lot more than a lot of us retirees are," he said.“The elected officials in the city of Detroit should have seen this reduction in revenue coming, and should have seen that the population was declining years ago and should have adjusted for that, but they failed to do so. Now it’s resting on the backs of the employees and retirees," said Taylor.The clock is ticking to turn De troit’s finances around. Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr has less than eighteen months to make difficult decisions that would bring about the Motor City’s eventual solvency.材料三Company Finds, Trains Technology Workers in AfricaA new Nigerian technology company plans to produce someof the best software developers in the world.The company is based in Lagos. It is called Andela. It performs work for large companies, most of which are in the United States. At the same time, it trains software developers. The training period is four years. During that time, Andela teaches workers programming languages and skills.“Our goal is to basically train 100,000 software developers who are world class, in Africa, over the next 10 years,” said Seni Sulyman. He is the compan y’s director of operations.Sulyman says after the developers train at Andela, they can work for major tech companies such as IBM and Microsoft.Recently, several groups showed their support for Andela by investing $24 million in the company.The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative was one of the investors. That group -- created by Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan -- issued a statement praising Andela. The statement said Andela’s “innovative model of learning” was one of the reasons the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative invested in the company.Others have also praised Andela for providing high-quality training. Bankole Oluwafemi is the editor of a technology news website. He said Andela is different from other technology companies in Africa because it focuses on education.“Andela is kind of like, attack that problem, and they’re kind of like, unique in that they’re one of the first, if not the first, to attack that problem at scale, the problem of education,” he said.Seni Sulyman says the company hopes to use the money it recently received to increase the number of workers it recruits.Andela hires only about 12 new people every three months.It chooses them from about 3,000 to 5,000 applications.Sulyman said Andela would also like to find more companies to complete projects for, and to expand into a third country in Africa. Andela now works in Nigeria and Kenya.Sulyman noted the recent investment of $24 million seems like a lot of money. But, he said, Andela has so many things it wants to do that he’s sure the company will figure out ways to spend it.I’m Christopher Jones-Cruise.材料四Now, the Special English program WORDS AND THEIR STORIES.There are many American expressions about insects -- like bees, for example. Bees are known as very hard workers. They always appear to be busy, moving around in their homes, or hives. So you might say you were as busy as a bee if you spent your weekend cleaning your house.In fact, you might say your house was a beehive of activity if your whole family was helping you clean. You also might say you made a beeline for something if you went there right away. When we go to see a movie, my friend always makes a beeline for the place where they sell popcorn.Here is an expression about bees that is not used much any more, but we like it anyway. We think it was first used in the nineteen twenties. If something was the best of its kind, you might say it was the bees knees. Now, we admit that we do not know how this expression developed. In fact, we do not even know if bees have knees!If your friend cannot stop talking about something because she thinks it is important, you might say she has a bee in herbonnet. If someone asks you a personal question, you might say that is none of your beeswax. This means none of your business.Speaking of personal questions, there is an expression people sometimes use when their children ask, where do babies come from? Parents who discuss sex and reproduction say this is talking about the birds and the bees.材料五TimeTime is tangible. One can gain time, spend time, waste time, save time, or even kill time. Common questions in American English reveal this concrete quality as though time were a possession. “Do you have any time?”, “Can you get some time for this?”, “How much free time do you have?” The treatment of time as a possession influences the way that time is carefully divided.Generally, Americans are taught to do one thing at a time and may be uncomfortable when an activity is interrupted. In businesses, the careful schedu ling of time and the separation of activities are common practices. Appointment calendars are printed with 15-, 30-, and 60-minute time slots. The idea that “there is a time and place for everything” extends to American social life. Visitors who drop by without prior notice may interrupt their host’s personal time. Thus, calling friends on the telephone before visiting them is ge nerally preferred to visitors’ dropping by. (157 words)材料六CartoonistIn a good cartoon, the artist can tell in a few lines as much as a writer can tell in half a dozen paragraphs. The cartoonist not only tells a story but he also tries to persuade the reader to hisway of thinking. He has great influence on public opinion. In a political campaign, he plays an important part. Controversial issues in Congress or at meetings of the United Nations may keep the cartoonist well-supplies with current materials.A clever cartoonist may cause laughter because he often uses humour in his drawings. If he is sketching a famous person, he takes a prominent feature and exaggerates it. Cartoonists, for instance, like to lengthen an already long nose and to widen an alrea dy broad grin. This exaggeration of a person’s characteristics is called caricature. The artist uses such exaggeration to put his message across. (144 words)。

大学英语四级辅导材料写作

大学英语四级辅导材料写作

四级作文辅导根据教育部颁布的大学英语教学大纲的要求,大学英语四级考试的命题形式有以下几种:首尾句作文、提纲作文、图表作文、命题作文、书信体作文等。

一、首尾句作文首尾句作文是根据段首(尾)句续写短文。

段首句作文也称主题句作文,因为作文题中所给的段首句往往是段落主题句。

其特点是以题目为中心,一般情况下将文章分为三个段落,每段首句即为该段的主题句(topic sentences)。

考生要按主题句的要求组织材料,提出论据,用一些辅助句(supporting sentences)来支持或说明主题句,写英文段首句作文要注意:所写的内容要紧扣主题,辅助句应围绕段首句续写。

保证段内每个句子的内容与段首句紧密展开各个段落,如:例证、因果、定义、比较对比、程序等。

要注意句与句之间,特别是段首句与辅助句之间的自然衔接。

另外,所给的段首句有时是一个完整的句子,有时不是一个完整的句子,只是句子的一部分,这就要求考生一定要审好题。

找出其中表示中心思想的关键词,围绕这些关键词去扩展、描述或说明。

1. Directions :For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition about Women in the Modern World in three paragraphs. You are given the first sentence of each paragraph and are required to develop the idea in completing the paragraph; your part of the composition should be about 100 words, not including the words given. Remember to write clearly.[范文]Women in the Modern WorldWomen are playing an increasingly important role in society. Successful women who are government officials, writers, scientists, doctors and teachers can be found everywhere. It is true that many jobs that once were dominated by men can be done well by women.With the changes in their social role, women’s position in the family has been improved as well. The husband is no longer the only bread maker in the family and the wife no longer lives on others. They share comforts and hardships with each other.In spite of these changes, the liberation of women has not been completely realized. Women still face many difficulties and obstacles due to traditional roles and limited economic strength. Women still have a long way to go in their struggle for complete equality with men.第一段首句是讲妇女在社会上的作用,因而续写的内容紧紧围绕妇女的社会作用,比如,妇女可以是政府机关的工作人员、科学家、教师等;第二句的段首句是关于妇女在家庭中的地位也提高了,续写的内容也是有关夫妻患难与共;第三句的段首句是讲妇女解放仍然任重而道远,续写的部分提出了妇女所面临的问题,整个续写的部分紧扣段首句。

From my perspective, under no circumstances should we undervalue the power of doing small things. Instead, we should regard small things as the source of experience, skills and the prerequisite of success. “Great achievement only belongs to those who can do small things perfectly.” Aristotle once said.

1. 简要描述图片: 简要描述,即,描述图中主题,并引出相关的主题即可, 故可以结合考研春季基础班讲义,使用描述句式如下:


A:简单型 As we can see from the picture,there are two persons, debating about the importance of doing small things before undertaking something big, who are a father and his son. B:复杂型 As is vividly depicted in the picture, two men, who are a father and his son,are talking about what should be done firstly,the small thing or the big ones. Simple as it is, what the picture conveys to us is thoughtprovoking.

大学英语四级考试写作辅导

大学英语四级考试写作辅导

大学英语四级考试写作辅导2012年6月大学英语四级考试写作辅导(1)记叙文的思路与练习记叙文是以叙述人物的记忆和事物的进展变化过程为要紧表现形式的一种文体。

记叙文既能够以写人为主,又能够以写事为主。

写记叙文要注意记叙文的“六大要素”即:时刻(When)——何时发生,有没有具体时刻?地方(Where)——何地发生,有没有地方变化?人物(Who)——何人参与,谁是主角?事件(What)——发生了啥,有何特点?缘故(Why)——事件的起因?结果(How)——事件的通过及结局?普通讲来,在一篇记叙文中这六大要素是缺一别可的。

记叙文的思路就环绕这六大要素充分展开。

【例】四级考试中,只浮现过一次特意的记叙文体裁的写作,即“An Early Morning Walk”(1988.6.),2003年6月浮现过包含记叙文的作文,即“An Eye-Witness Account of a Traffic Accident”。

关于“An Early Morning Walk”,懂命题要求后,我们就要开始构思了。

When:题目已规定了是“清晨”,在那个时候,“我”去散步。

Where:到哪儿散步?去公园?在校园里?在街上(街上空气不行,依然别去!)。

Who:在公园里看到晨练的人:中老年人、年轻人、孩子子;在校园里看到读书背单词的学生。

What:人们热火朝乾坤做操,随音乐跳舞,打球,等等。

Why:清晨空气清新,适合锻炼;一日之际在于晨,背背书,读读单词。

固然,由那个题目能够令人想到非常多东西,因篇幅所限,我们做了删减。

参考范文An Early Morning WalkOne morning I got up very early, and everything around was very quiet.The sun had just risen, shining brilliantly and everything seemed to be covered with a layer of golden silk. There were only some birds singing occasionally in the tall trees. I strolled along the street toward the park, breathing the fresh air and feeling extremely happy.When I arrived at the park, I found, to my surprise, that there were so many people there. Men and women, boys and girls, all were enjoying themselves in their various activities. Some were doing morning exercises, some were playing badminton and some old people were having their tea while talking to each other cheerfully.I wandered around the park. To my delight, I found a few middle-school students talking to each other in English in one corner of the park. I went up and spoke to them in English. We soon became friends. I was very glad to find another opportunity to practice my spoken English. On the way home, I realized that an early morning walk really was good and healthful. Taking early morning walks makes one healthy and wise.【点评】文章按照时刻顺序(in chronological order),第一句话点明时刻(One morning)、人物(第一人称“I”),并简要描述了凌晨的特点(What was the setting),继续第二段第一句话交代地方(in the park),然后介绍公园里人们及作者的活动(What was happening),最终在文章结尾点题,即,归纳中心思想——Taking early morning walks makes one healthy and wise. 仅仅189个单词既满脚了记叙文的“六大要素”,又有明确的中心思想和生动的细节,行文方式符合要求。

[A]和[C]项误解了be tied up with的含义,分别将该短语理解为“喜欢”和“厌恶”;[D]项是说太忙而没有时间学习化学,这与女士所说的“一直忙着学习化学”相矛盾,注意too...to的表达方式。

13. M: Make thirty copies for me and twenty copies for Mr. Brown.W: Certainly, Sir. As soon as I finish typing the letter.Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?【解析】选[C]。

听力技巧一:学会取舍,理解内容听力考试中最忌讳的就是词词计较,力求听懂所有词。

其实,听懂所有词首先没必要,其次也不可能。

我们在日常生活中听中文时,无论听什么,注意力都不会在每一个字或词上面,而是对文段或对话内容的整体的理解上。

大学英语四级考试复习材料

大学英语四级考试复习材料

大学英语四级考试复习材料备考英语四级需要的资料首先:一本英语四级词汇书。

现在市面上有多种多样的词汇书,但整理也就分为两大类,一是正序版的词汇书,另一类是倒序版的词汇书。

选择适合自己的就可以。

第二,一个背单词的app。

手机有很多背单词的app,单词生动形象,而且可以利用零碎的时间来背单词,比单纯的背单词书能更快的掌握单词。

第三,历年真题。

买历年真题进行刷题。

历年真题的选择比较简单,最好有近5年的真题,真题有详解的答案,包括听力原文、阅读原文、每道题的答案详解及注释等等,越全面越好,对自己做题后对答案有很大帮助。

做错的题要进行勾画复习,找出做错的原因,不认识的单词抄下来背诵,不懂的语法知识点进行百度,实在搞不清楚要问同学问老师。

多刷几遍真题,争取做到可以领会出题者的意图,知道考察点,这样一定可以过四级。

如何准备四级考试1. 扩大英语词汇量四级要求大约4000个以上的词汇量,扩大词汇量是准备四级最基本的要求。

如果每天背50个新单词,两个月就可以积累3000个单词。

加上以前知道的单词,超过4000个应该没有问题。

2. 系统掌握英语语法从四级考试中可以看出,有很多与语法紧密相关的题目,如阅读理解题、完形填空、纠错题、翻译题、写作题等,都包含了对语法知识的考查。

考生在复习语法知识时,要重点掌握10大类单词的用法,16大时态和语态的用法,各种句子的用法等。

因此学好了语法,才能提高答题正确率。

3. 练习不同类型问题的听力理解特别是复合式听写部分,要求考生不仅要理解它是什么,还要写出正确的答案,尤其是比较难的单词拼写。

因此大多数考生在练习听力的过程中特别要加强书写能力,平时可以练习比较复杂的单词拼写,在考试的听写部分会比较有用。

4. 集中精力做阅读理解练习阅读理解题在整个考试中占有很高的分数,同时阅读理解题中的后两篇文章难度较大,所以做题的时间比较长。

因此,考生在备考时需要大量练习这类题型,在做题型的过程中要积累经验和掌握做题型的技巧,在判断句子的正误和填空时要重视细节点。

大学英语四级辅导材料(三)----成段--- 全文的“纽带意识”段落是根据文章内容划分的写作实体,一般有若干个相互关联的句子组成,用来表达一个中心思想。

一个段落如同一篇“微型文章“,它的内容完整、连贯、展开自如。

段落的内容完整指的是段落中的句子都要求紧扣段落主题。

内容连贯指的是文字条理清晰,层次结构清楚,句子与句子之间具有内在的逻辑联系。

展开自如指的是用恰当方法来展开段落。

段落的长短要视文章的具体要求来定,一般来说,一篇相对较长的文章,它的段落也相对较长,表达相对复杂的主题,段落太短是不行的。

在四级作文中,因受字数的限制,段落比较短,平均也就40-50字。

就段落内容而言,如此短的段落只能对段落提示的内容做一个高度的概括和相对精炼的解释和说明。

与长篇文章的段落“错落有致”要求不同,四级作文的段落要求相对均衡,略有侧重,切忌“头重脚轻”和“头轻脚重”。

段落是文章的骨架,文章的优势往往在段落中可见一斑,写好段落是文章成功的关键。

前面一章在讲谋篇(全文框架)时,涉及的只是全文完整性、连贯性层面上的段落结构和写作方法,主要将重点放在如何按照中文的段落提示,把全文中的段落安排好、衔接好。

本章的重点则力图把段落内部的结构解释清楚,即“如何连句成段,如何为全文主题构建筋骨-纽带”。

一、段落的结构一般来说,段落主要由三个部分组成,即用段落主题句( the topic sentence ) 开头,用拓展句(the supporting sentence)进行阐述或举例说明,用结尾句子( the concluding这样的段落在首、尾分别强调了段落的重点,中间展开阐述,因此常被人称为“三明治式段落。

例如:The topic sentence is usually the most important element of a paragraph (主题句). It points to the direction in which the paragraph should move (拓展句1). Moreover, it offers information more important than those offered by other sentences in the paragraph (拓展句2).To sum up, the topic sentence defines a paragraph and emphasize its main idea (结尾句).———主题句一般是段落中最重要的部分。
