2019年大学英语四级听力练习(1)

2019年大学英语四级听力练习(1)An area known as a dead zone develops every spring in the Gulf of Mexico near the mouth of the Mississippi River. Itcan spread as much as 13,600 square kilometers, extending all the way to the eastern Texas coast. Scientists know what causes the dead zone -- too much nitrogen, but the solution might be hard to accept.Bayani Cardenas is a professor of water studies at the University of Texas at Austin. He says the movement of rivers usually removes material like nitrates. So he wondered whythat natural filtration process does not remove nitrates from the Mississippi River.Dead pogies float in a fish kill in a pass near Bay Joe Wise on the Louisiana coast, Thursday, Sept. 16, 2010.Professor Cardenas says his recent study shows that more than 99 percent of the river's water does pass through theriver's sediment which is on the shore or bottom of the river. But he says the study found that there is so much nitrogen in the river system that is simply can not filter all of it.The water that has nitrogen still in it supports the growth of algae. As the algae dies, it sinks to the bottom of the river where it breaks down or decomposes. It then takes oxygen from the water. This condition is called hypoxia andit is deadly to fish and shrimp.Where does all this nitrogen come from? The answer is farms. The Mississippi River system carries water from 33American states and part of Canada to the gulf of Mexico. Along the way nitrogen and other chemicals used in farming enter the system. Farmers say these chemicals must be used to produce enough food for a growing world population.Aaron Packman is a professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Northwestern University. He says farmers may be able to better control the amount of nitrate fertilizer they put on fields."How much fertilizer do you need to give you good yields and then how much is maybe a marginal gain from adding lots more fertilizer? There is really a question here： can you maybe [reduce the amount] and get close to the same level of yield without having such a negative impact?" said Packman.The water in the Mississippi River system should be able to clean itself naturally as it flows down stream. But flood controls and other human-made structures have hurt this filtering process.Storms in the next few month will mix the gulf water and the dead zone will disappear, but it will return next year. And scientists say it will grow larger in years to come, if something is not done to reduce the amount of nitrogen in the Mississippi River.。

on Answer Sheet2.Is Breakfast Really the Most Important Meal of the Day?[A]Along with old classics like“carrots give you night vision”and“Santa doesn’t bring toys to misbehaving children”,one of the most well-worn phrases of tired parents everywhere is that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.Many of us grow up believing that skipping breakfast is a serious mistake,even if only two thirds of adultsin the UK eat breakfast regularly,according to the British Dietetic Association,and around three-quarters of Americans.[B]“The body uses a lot of energy stores for growth and repair through the night,”explains diet specialist Sarah Elder.“Eating a balanced breakfast helps to up our energy, as well as make up for protein and calcium used throughout the night.”But there’s widespread disagreement over whether breakfast should keep its top spot in the hierarchy(等级)of meals.There have been concerns around the sugar content of cereal and the food industry’s involvement in pro-breakfast research—and even one claim from an academic that breakfast is“dangerous”.[C]What’s the reality?Is breakfast a necessary start to the day or a marketing tactic by cereal companies?The most researched aspect of breakfast(and breakfast-skipping) has been its links to obesity.Scientists have different theories as to why there’s a relationship between the two.In one US study that analysed the health data of50,000 people over seven years,researchers found that those who made breakfast the largest meal of the day were more likely to have a lower body mass index(BMI)than those who ate a large lunch or dinner.The researchers argued that breakfast helps reduce daily calorie intake and improve the quality of our diet—since breakfast foods are often higher in fibre and nutrients.[D]But as with any study of this kind,it was unclear if that was the cause—or if breakfast-skippers were just more likely to be overweight to begin with.To find out, researchers designed a study in which52obese women took part in a12-week weightloss programme.All had the same number of calories over the day,but half had breakfast,while the other half did not.What they found was that it wasn’t breakfast itself that caused the participants to lose weight:it was changing their normal routine.[E]If breakfast alone isn’t a guarantee of weight loss,why is there a link between obesity and breakfast-skipping?Alexandra Johnstone,professor of appetite research at the University of Aberdeen,argues that it may simply be because breakfast-skippers have been found to be less knowledgeable about nutrition and health.“There are a lot of studies on the relationship between breakfast eating and possible health outcomes, but this may be because those who eat breakfast choose to habitually have health-enhancing behaviours such as regular exercise and not smoking,”she says.[F]A2016review of10studies looking into the relationship between breakfast and weight management concluded there is“limited evidence”supporting or refuting(反驳) the argument that breakfast influences weight or food intake,and more evidence is required before breakfast recommendations can be used to help prevent obesity.[G]Researchers from the University of Surrey and University of Aberdeen are halfway through research looking into the mechanisms behind how the time we eat influences body weight.Early findings suggest that a bigger breakfast is beneficial to weight control.Breakfast has been found to affect more than just weight.Skipping breakfast has been associated with a27%increased risk of heart disease,a21%higher risk of type2diabetes in men,and a20%higher risk of type2diabetes in women.One reason may be breakfast’s nutritional value—partly because cereal is fortified(增加营养价值)with vitamins.In one study on the breakfast habits of1,600young people in the UK,researchers found that the fibre and micronutrient intake was better in those who had breakfast regularly.There have been similar findings in Australia,Brazil,Canada and the US.[H]Breakfast is also associated with improved brain function,including concentration and language use.A review of54studies found that eating breakfast can improve memory,though the effects on other brain functions were inconclusive.However,one of the review’s researchers,Mary Beth Spitznagel,says there is“reasonable”evidence breakfast does improve concentration—there just needs to be more research.“Looking at studies that tested concentration,the number of studies showing a benefit was exactly the same as the number that found no benefit,”she says.“And no studies found that eating breakfast was bad for concentration.”[I]What’s most important,some argue,is what we eat for breakfast.High-protein breakfasts have been found particularly effective in reducing the longing for food and consumption later in the day,according to research by the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation.While cereal remains a firm favourite among breakfast consumers in the UK and US,a recent investigation into the sugar content of“adult”breakfast cereals found that some cereals contain more than three-quarters of the recommended daily amount of free sugars in each portion,and sugar was the second or third highest ingredient in cereals.[J]But some research suggests if we’re going to eat sugary foods,it’s best to do it early.One study recruited200obese adults to take part in a16-week-long diet,where half added dessert to their breakfast,and half didn’t.Those who added dessert lost an average of40pounds more—however,the study was unable to show the long-term effects.A review of54studies found that there is no consensus yet on what type of breakfast is healthier,and concluded that the type of breakfast doesn’t matter as much as simply eating something.[K]While there’s no conclusive evidence on exactly what we should be eating and when,the consensus is that we should listen to our own bodies and eat when we’re hungry.“Breakfast is most important for people who are hungry when they wake up,”Johnstone says.“Each body starts the day differently—and those individual differences need to be researched more closely,”Spitznagel says.“A balanced breakfast is really helpful,but getting regular meals throughout the day is more important to leave blood sugar stable through the day,which helps control weight and hunger levels,”says Elder.“Breakfast isn’t the only meal we should be getting right.”36.According to one professor,obesity is related to a lack of basic awareness of nutrition and health.37.Some scientists claim that people should consume the right kind of food at breakfast.38.Opinions differ as to whether breakfast is the most important meal of the day.39.It has been found that not eating breakfast is related to the incidence of certain diseases in some countries.40.Researchers found it was a change in eating habits rather than breakfast itself thatinduced weight loss.41.To keep oneself healthy,eating breakfast is more important than choosing what to eat.42.It is widely considered wrong not to eat breakfast.43.More research is needed to prove that breakfast is related to weight loss or food intake.44.People who prioritise breakfasts tend to have lower calorie but higher nutritional intake.45.Many studies reveal that eating breakfast helps people memorise and concentrate. Section CDirections:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A), B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions46to50are based on the following passage.Textbooks represent an11billion dollar industry,up from$8billion in2014. Textbook publisher Pearson is the largest publisher—of any kind—in the world.It costs about$1million to create a new textbook.A freshman textbook will have dozens ofcontributors,from subject-matter experts through graphic and layout artists to expertreviewers and classroom testers.Textbook publishers connect professors,instructors and students in ways that alternatives,such as open e-textbooks and open educational resources,simply do not.This connection happens not only by means of collaborative development,review and testing,but also at conferences where faculty regularly decide on their textbooks and curricula for the coming year.It is true that textbook publishers have recently reported losses,largely due to students renting or buying used print textbooks.But this can be chalked up to the excessively high cost of their books—which has increased over1,000percent since 1977.A restructuring of the textbook industry may well be in order.But this does not mean the end of the textbook itself.While they may not be as dynamic as an iPad,textbooks are not passive or lifeless. For example,over the centuries,they have simulated(模拟)dialogues in a number of ways.From1800to the present day,textbooks have done this by posing questions for students to answer inductively(归纳性地).That means students are asked to use their individual experience to come up with answers to general questions.Today’s psychology texts,for example,ask:“How much of your personality do you think you inherited?”while ones in physics say:“How can you predict where the ball you tossed will land?”Experts observe that“textbooks come in layers,something like an onion.”For an active learner,engaging with a textbook can be an interactive experience.Readers proceed at their own pace.They“customize”their books by engaging with different layers and linkages. Highlighting,Post-It notes,dog-ears and other techniques allow for further customization that students value in print books over digital forms of books.46.What does the passage say about open educational resources?A)They contribute to teaching as much as to learning.B)They don’t profit as much as traditional textbooks do.C)They can’t connect professors and students as textbooks do.D)They compete fiercely for customers with textbook producers.47.What is the main cause of the publishers’losses?A)Failure to meet student need.C)Industry restructuring.B)Emergence of e-books.D)Falling sales.48.What does the textbook industry need to do?A)Reform its structures.B)Cut its retail prices.C)Find replacements for printed textbooks.D)Change its business strategy periodically.49.What are students expected to do in the learning process?A)Think carefully before answering each question.B)Ask questions based on their own understanding.C)Answer questions using their personal experience.D)Give answers showing their respective personality.50.What do experts say about students using textbooks?A)They can digitalize the prints easily.B)They can learn in an interactive way.C)They can purchase customized versions.D)They can adapt the material themselves.Passage TwoQuestions51to55are based on the following passage.When we think of animals and plants,we have a pretty good way of dividing them into two distinct groups:one converts sunlight into energy and the other has to eat food to make its energy.Well,thosedividing lines come crashing down with the discovery of a sea slug(海蛞蝓)that’s truly half animal and half plant.It’s pretty incredible how it has managed to hijack the genes of the algae(藻类)on which it feeds.The slugs can manufacture chlorophyll,the green pigment(色素)in plants that captures energy from sunlight,and hold these genes within their body.The term kleptoplasty is used to describe the practice of using hijacked genes to create nutrients from sunlight.And so far,this green sea slug is the only known animal that can be truly considered solar-powered,although some animals do exhibit some plant-like behaviors. Many scientists have studied the green sea slugs to confirm that they are actually able to create energy from sunlight.In fact,the slugs use the genetic material so well that they pass it on to their future generations.Their babies retain the ability to produce their own chlorophyll,though they can’t generate energy from sunlight until they’ve eaten enough algae to steal the necessary genes,which they can’t yet produce on their own.“There’s no way on earth that genes from an alga should work inside an animal cell,”says Sidney Pierce from the University of South Florida.“And yet here,they do.They allow the animal to rely on sunshine for its nutrition.So if something happens to their food source,they have a way of not starving to death until they find more algae to eat.”The sea slugs are so good at gathering energy from the sun that they can live up to nine months without having to eat any food.They get all their nutritional needs met by the genes that they’ve hijacked from the algae.51.What is the distinctive feature of a sea slug?A)It looks like both a plant and an animal.B)It converts some sea animals into plants.C)It lives half on animals and half on plants.D)It gets energy from both food and sunlight.52.What enables the sea slug to live like a plant?A)The genes it captures from the sea plant algae.B)The mechanism by which it conserves energy.C)The nutrients it hijacks from other species.D)The green pigment inherits from its ancestors.53.What does the author say about baby sea slugs?A)They can live without sunlight for a long time.B)They can absorb sunlight right after their birth.C)They can survive without algae for quite some time.D)They can produce chlorophyll on their own.54.What does Sidney Pierce say about genes from an alga?A)They are stolen from animals like the sea slug.B)They can’t function unless exposed to sunlight.C)They don’t usually function inside animal cells.D)They can readily be converted to sea slug genes.55.What do we learn about sea slugs from the passage?A)They behave the way most plant species do.B)They can survive for months without eating.C)They will turn into plants when they mature.D)They will starve to death without sunlight.Part IV Translation(30minutes)Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet2.中国的家庭观念与其文化传统有关。

Life in the city has many attractions. For example, living in the city allows easy access to a wide variety of cultural events, such as concerts, museums, andtheaters. Access to public transportation also makes it easyto get around. However, city living also has disadvantages, such as higher living costs and increased pollution. It is important to weigh these factors when deciding where to live.Passage TwoMany people these days work in open-plan offices where there are no partitions between the different areas. Thiskind of working situation can bring many benefits, both forthe workers and for the companies they work for. For one thing, it can help to increase the sense of teamwork. Workers can communicate more easily and get to know each other better, which can help to improve job satisfaction and productivity. Furthermore, it's also possible for companies to make better use of their office space when they use the open-plan layout.Passage ThreeFor some people, the idea of living without a car wouldbe unthinkable. However, in many situations it is entirelypossible to get by quite comfortably without one. There are many places, especially in cities, where it's much easier to use public transportation than to deal with the traffic and parking problems that come with owning a car. And for short trips around town, walking or riding a bike can be an even better option. With the increasing cost of fuel and the environmental problems caused by cars, it's no wonder that many people are choosing to live car-free lives.Section CConversation OneW: How are you doing, Bob? You look terrible.M: I'm just really tired. I didn't sleep well at all last night.W: Why not? What happened?M: There was a wild party going on in the apartment upstairs until 3 a.m. and I couldn't sleep at all.Conversation TwoM: Have you seen my sunglasses anywhere?W: Yes, I think I put them in the drawer of the coffee table for you.M: Oh, thanks. I've been looking for them everywhere.W: No problem. Have a good time at the beach.M: I will, thanks.Conversation ThreeW: There's a new Italian restaurant nearby. Do you want to give it a try this weekend?M: That sounds great. I love Italian food. Where is it located?W: It's on Main Street, next to the library. We can walk there in 5 minutes.M: Alright, I'm in. Let's make a reservation for Saturday night.。
