英语四级-选词填空
Passage OnePop means popular, and a pop singer is supposed to work very hard to become popular. He must either give the public what they already want, or he must find a new way of singing that will H(attract) their attention. Even when he has succeeded, and his G(record) are sold everywhere, he cannot E(relax) _. Then he must work harder than ever to _B(remain)_ popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity.The life of a successful pop singer isn't at all easy. He can only relax when he is A(alone) , because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper, written for the fans. The fans are the most D(important) people in the world for the singer. They buy his records, they go to his conceits, and they make him rich and famous. But they can be very L(annoying) too. Sometimes the tans become so crazy that they do anything to get a "souvenir". They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer's hair. Many singers have been forced to hide, and some have not been so I(lucky) as to escape being stripped(剥夺)practically C (naked)(裸体) by their fans. A pop singer has to spend a lot of money on clothes, because he must always look smart, or, at any rate, M(different)_. He must have an expensive car. And--most important –he must always keep smiling for the benefit of his public.Passage TwoThe United States is full of A(automobiles汽车). There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or even more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are _H(necessary)_ part of life.Cars are used for B(business) . They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they have to drive in order to carry their I(products) . Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies.Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school F(BUSES) are used only when children live more than a mile from the school. When the children are too young to walk that J(far)_, their mothers _G(take)_ turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Mondays, taking her own children and neighbors’ children as well. Another drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesdays, and so on. This is called forming a car pool(联盟). Men also _C(form) car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work.More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer automobiles on the road and to use less D(gasoline)_. Parking is a great problem, and so is the _E（traffic）_ in and around cities. Too many cars are being driven. Something will have to be done about the use of cars.Passage ThreeDon't try kicking the tires(轮胎) on a very modem and strange car developed by students at Coventry University. Not only does the car have no tires, it has no B(steering掌舵) wheel（车轮，方向盘）, either.The Coventry Concept(概念) Car, as it is called is a __C (completely)__ new design that looks more like a snail(蜗牛) than an automobile. No working model（模型）, or functional（功能的）form of the _D(vehicle车辆) exists yet, but its designers recently introduced a life-sized model and explained how a real one would work.Electric motors would move rapidly undulating pad (形成波浪状气垫) A（underneath底层的）the car; moving the vehicle in any direction at speeds up to 480 km per hour. The motion would be a much faster way of L （crawling速率）, the way snails move. (Muscles in the bottom of a snail's flat foot _K(contract)__ in waves that push the snail along the ground.)Steering of the snail car would be _H(handled有把柄的) automatically by an onboard computer, which would receive signals from orbiting satellites. Those signals would help guide the snail car along a preprogrammed _ J(_route)_,Even the car's color could be computer-controlled, the student designer suggested. Instead of a painted-out _I(appearance)_, the snail car would sport (显示) an electronically sensitive film that changes color according to its _G(surroundinf)_ .Passage FourNot all language is verbal. Some of our J(communication) occurs(发生) without words. We often use our entire(全部) bodies for communication. We may raise our eyebrows to C(indicate) surprise. Perhaps we nod our heads to show that we agree with something. There are hundreds of nonverbal(非口头) H(signals信号，标志) that can be used to communicate. These signals are part of language, and they are G(governed管理支配) by rules in the same way that our spoken language is. For this reason, people who speak different languages often use different nonverbal signals as well.In addition to verbal communication and the type of nonverbal communication discussed above, there are other message I(systems) that we use to communicate. When we speak to some people, we may stand very A(close)them, while we may stand far away from other people. Use of space, then, is a way we can communicate(B(relationship) another person. The way we _D(dress)so communicate for us. The person who wears dirty jeans and a T-shirt communicates a different E(attitude) from a person who wears neat trousers and an attractive shirt. We can even use time to communicate. The person who is on time for an F(appointment) shows a different attitude from the person who is an hour late does. Can you think of other message systems we use in communication?Passage FiveHow can English teachers accelerate(加快|) the language teaming of their students? One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies(策略) are ―procedures or _A(techniques)_ that learners can use to facilitate(促进) a learning task.‖ B(instructing指导) students of English in learning strategies can help them become better learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming G(independent) , confident learners. Finally, students become more I(motivated) as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success in learning English.Students need to develop an awareness of the learning process and strategies that lead to success. Students who C(reflect反映) on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems _F(encountered遇到)_, and evaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students __J(accustomed使习惯)_ to having a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the O (sole基础，触底，唯一)_ judge of their progress.Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves. Because learning strategies are mental N(processes)__ with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concrete as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to _ M(explore) new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.Passage SixAn unusual cooperation(合作) between the local university and other education providers in East Anglia has seen the C (establishment) of Norwich's new Learning Shop. At the city center shop, local people can look through booklets and leaflets to find out about learning opportunities G(ranging)__ from evening classes to postgraduates degrees. Skilled staff is on hand to give _I(accurate)_ information about courses and training in the region.More than 11,000 people have visited the shop since it opened in 1997. The majority of inquiries have been about courses in further education, but 17 percent have _ H(related)__ to higher education in general. Customer feedback J(confirms)_ how valuable the resource is. A woman’s F(comment评论，意见) is typical: ―It's a brilliant idea—less daunting than going to the different institutions.‖ A seller told us: ―This really gives you hope you can get back into something.‖Fellow _E(institutions体系) are welcome to set up exhibitions and events at the shop: to date, these have included poetry readings, a recorder concert and D(numerous许多的) exhibitions and displays. The shop is staffed by two advisers and other colleagues from the fellow institutions in the region. Speaking at the "Norwich as a Learning City" _B(conference会议，协商) . Prof. Mike Campell at the local university, said the first barrier to learning was lack of information. The Learning Shop aims to break down that _ A(barrier)) .There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever K(ignored) spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much G(priority优先) it must be given over general language development and _F(writing)_ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and E(tend) in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling.If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will A(confidently)_ to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to B(avoid) adventurous(危险) language. That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to C(content内容目录满足) rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: "This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible（难于辨认的）." It may have been a sharp criticism批评of the pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted遗漏省去to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the D(errors) , but if his priorities had M (centered居中的) on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek _N(improvement) .Passage EightJust like children, deer often cross British roads to get to the other side. But the cost is the deer's life. At night, _ E(speeding)_ cars hit and kill the animals. Now foresters are using natural animal D(instinct本能)_ to prevent dangerous crossings.In England, the British Forestry Commission has B(installed(安装) thousands of glowing red ―wolf eyes‖ along woodland roads. The eyes are actually reflectors (反射镜), _C(plastic)__ bars like the red reflectors on your bike. The ten-centimeter long bars are fixed on top of posts, with only these signs directed towards the woods rather than the roads.When cars speed by, light rays from car headlights reflect off the reflectors' shining surface and I(flash) into the woods. Deer are instantly(马上) _A(scared) by the wolf eyes—even though wolves haven't _J(hunt) deer in Britain or even lived there for a hundred years!Scientists think the glowing(灼热的) light K(imitate模仿) the "eye shine" of nightly beasts. (Y ou've probably seen eye shine on cats. Mirror-like cells in the eyes N(reflect) some light that hits them.) The deer must not have ―forgotten‖ that a wolf can run up to 72 km per hour in M(hot) pursuit, or can sniff deer out from 2.4 km away.Passage NineIt was once believed that being overweight was healthy, but nowadays few people subscribe to this viewpoint. While many people are fighting the battle to reduce weight studies are being conducted concerning the _A(appetite食欲)__ and how it is controlled by both emotional and biochemical factors. Some of the _B(conclusion))__ of these studies may give insights into how to deal with weight problems. For example, when severe hundred people were asked about their eating habits in times of stress, 44 percent said they reacted to stressful situations by eating. Further investigations with both humans and animals indicated that it is not food which F（relieves）tension but rather the act of C(chewing) .A test in which subjects were blindfolded showed that obese (肥胖的)people have a keener sense of taste and crave (渴望) more flavorful food than non-obese people. When deprived of the variety and _D(intensity强度强烈) of tastes, obese people are not satisfied and consequently eat more to E(fulfill) this need. Blood G(samples)__ taken from people after they were shown a picture of food revealed that overweight people reacted with an increase in blood insulin (胰岛素), a chemical (associate) J with appetite. This did not happen to average-weight people.Exercise has been (recommended)I as an important part of a weight-loss program. However, it has been found that mild exercise, such as using the stairs instead of the H(elevator)电梯, is better in the long run than taking on a strenuous program, such as jogging, which many people find difficult to continue over long periods of time and which also increases appetite.Passage T enThe first practical pen with reservoir is credited to Lewis Edson Waterman, a 45-year-old American insurance broker in 1884. The story goes that he was getting ready to sign a E(vital与..竞争)_ contract on a building site and had bought a new pen for the (occasion)K feeling that it would _ L(create) a good impression and be more convenient for the circumstances than the more usual dip nib pen. The C(contract) was on the table, and the pen was in fee client's hand. Once, twice and even a third time the pen refused to write and then it made an ink blot on the important paperwork. Mr. Waterman returned to his office in all M(haste赶快)_, obtained a fresh contract and returned to the site—a (rival比得上)A_ broker had beaten him to it and the client had signed a contract with the competitor.Waterman refused to be caught out again in like fashion and having an inventive mind designed his own pen and commenced to produce them in his brother's （workshop车间）O_. His design was based upon the physical force of capillarity where air replace the ink used giving a smooth, even, blot free flow. His idea was patented in 1884 but he continued to sell insurance while B（manufacturing）just a few hundreds pens per year. However, Waterman saw the _D(benefits) of advertising and sales increased rapidly. Gold nibs were H(obtains获得) from New Y ork and in 1900 a factory was built in Montreal, Canada to make the pens.。

• 较难的一个例子：Husbands and children now do some of these jobs, a ____ that has changed the target market for many products. (06-12) 这里可以用两种判断方法 来判断横线处所填词的词性。第一种方法，用句子结构来判断，前面一句话，Husbands and children now do some of these jobs，这是一个完整的句子，主语husbands and children，谓语动词DO，宾语Some of these jobs；后面的that引导的是一个同位语从 句，它所修饰的中心词就是a后面需要填的词，而定语从句的中心词是名词，所以横线处 应填一个名词。第二种方 法，根据刚才所说的“a + 名词”的语法规则来判断，横线处应 该填一个名词，而且是一个可数名词的单数形式。正确答案是situation。这句话的意思是 “丈夫和孩子现在也做一些 这样的工作了，这种情况就改变了许多产品的目标市场。”
• 2. 当出现“一个完整的句子 + ，____ + 名词/介词”的结构时，逗号后 边的部分是伴随状语，表示伴随状态或者表示原因，应当填动词加ING形 式或动词加ED形式。当这个动词与句子主语是主动关 系，填动词加ING形 式，当两者是被动关系，填动词加ED形式。
• 举例说明：
• The rainfall is increased across south america, ___ floods to peru. (06-6) 根据独立主格结构原则，应该填动词ing或动词ed，选项中只有 bringing符合要求。从意思来看，bring“带来”与rainfall“降雨”之 间 是主动关系，即“the rainfall brings floods”，所以用bringing无论从 意思上还是结构上都符合要求。

英语四级选词填空练习题及答案英语四级选词填空练习题及答案：There is evidence that the usual variety of high blood pressure is,in part,a familiar disease.Since families have similar genes as well as similar environments,familiar diseases could be due to shared genetic influences,to shared environmental factors,or to both.For some years,the role of one environmental factor commonly shared by families,namely dietary salt(i.e.,sodium chloride),has been studied at Brookhaven National Laboratory.These studies suggest that chromic excess salt ingestion can lead to high blood pressure in man and animals.Some individuals,however,and some rats consume large amounts of salt without developing high blood pressure.No matter how strictly all environmental factors were controlled in these experiments,some salt-fed animals never developed hypertension whereas a few rapidly developed very severe hypertension followed by early death.These marked variations were interpreted to result from differences in genetic constitution.By mating is successive generations only those animals that failed to develop hypertension from salt ingestion,a resistant strain(the "R" Strain)has been evolved in which consumption of large quantities of salt fails to influence the blood pressure significantly.In contrast,by mating only animals that quickly develop hypertension from salt,a sensitive strain("S" strain)has also been developed.The availability of these tow strains permits investgations not heretofore possible.They provide a plausible laboratory model on which to investigate some clinical aspects of the human prototypes of hypertension.More important,there might be the possibility of developing methods by which genetic susceptibility of human beings to high blood pressure can be defined without waiting for its appearance.Radioactive sodium 22 was an important "tool" in working out the characteristics of the sodium chloride metabolism.1.The study of the effects of salt on high blood pressure was carried out ______.a.as members of the same family tend to use similar amounts of saltb.to explore the long-term use of a sodium based substancec.because it was proven that salt caused high blood pressured.because of the availability of chemically pure salt and its derivatives2.The main difference between "S" and "R" rats is their ______.a.need for sodium 22b.rate of matingc.reaction to saltd.type of blood3.We can infer from the article that sodium 22 can de used to ______.a.control high blood pressureb.cure high blood pressure caused by saltc.tell the "S" rats from the "R" ratsd.determine what a sodium chloride metabolism is like4.The most beneficial results of the research might be ______.a.development of diets free of saltb.an early cure for high blood pressurec.control of genetic agents that cause high blood pressured.the early identification of potential high blood pressure victims5.Which of the statements best relates the main idea of this article?a.When salt is added rats and human beings react similarly.b.The near future will see a cure for high blood pressure.c.The medical field is desperately in need of research.d.A tendency toward high blood pressure may be a hereditary factor.答案：acddd英语四级选词填空练习题及答案：Directions: In this section, there is apassage with ten blanks.

Researchers have learned more about how the SARS virus works: it 47 with a system in the body that uses enzymes (酶)to control blood pressure and fluid balanee. Scientists say the virus 48 to an enzyme known as ACE-two. The virus blocks the enzyme, permitting fluid to enter the lungs.A team from Europe and Asia reported the 49 in Nature Medicine.

Farmers have their own way to 47 marginal land: It is the last to be pla nted un der good con diti ons, and has the 48_to be avoided un der poor con diti ons. Low 49 soil is not the only reas on land could be con sidered margin al. It might be in an area where rain fall is 50—or where a hillside might rise too steeply.There are uses for margin al la nd, however. Most often it is used as grassla nd. Grasses provide excelle nt 51一for grazing (吃草)animals like cattle, sheep and goats. Grass seed can be bought from a foreign supplier or52_grasses can be used. However, using marginal land for grazing is not a simple issue. There is a 53 of overgrazing. Cattle can damage the crops by eating down to the roots. Also, the weight of the animals crushes the soil and can make it too hard for grow ing. A( n) 54 way to reduce the harm is to move an imals from one field to another. This method is known as rotational grazing (循环放牧)which is extremely important for marginal Ian d.Ano ther use for margin al la nd is for tree crops. Studies have 55 that the white pine and loblolly pine (火炬松)are two kinds of trees that grow well on such land. They grow fast and provide good quality wood. Another tree is the poplar (白杨),found in many parts of the world.Failure to take the care needed to protect marginal lands can make a bad situation worse. But goodChina is casti ng such a huge shadow on the Un ited States that many America ns are trying hard to lear n the Chin ese Ian guage with an effort to keep their competitive edge."Interest in learning Chinese among American youth and their parents has grown 47 in the past five years," said Vivie n Stewart, vice preside nt at the Asia Society, a US group trying to bridge the 48 betwee n America ns and the peoples of Asia and the Pacific.China's rapid progress is driving the interest to 49 the Ianguage, experts say. "The Chinese rich cultural traditi ons and 50 ec onomy mean that it is now esse ntial for all of our stude nts to be better prepared to engage them and seize opportunities together," said Michael Levine, Asia Society' s executive director of educati on.A 2004 College Board survey found that 2,400 high schools--an 51 number--would be interested in 52_the Adva need Placeme nt (AP) courses in Chin ese Ian guage and culture whe n the courses become available in 2006.China, the world' s most populous ( 人口稠密的)nation, is 53 to the United States because it is a leadi ng trader, con sumer and in vestor.

However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. In one investigation, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education. Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents (答问卷者)listed “to give children a good start academically”as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices. To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as persistence, concentration, and the ability to function as a member of a group. The vast majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.In the recent comparison of Japanese and American preschool education, 91 percent of Japanese respondents chose providing children with a group experience as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. Sixty-two percent of the more individually oriented (强调个性发展的)Americans listed group experience as one of their top three choices. An emphasis on the importance of the group seen in Japanese early childhood education continues into elementary school education.Like in America, there is diversity in Japanese early childhood education. Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential development. In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools. Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children‘s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities. Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.16.We learn from the first paragraph that many Americans believe ________.A) Japanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parentsB) Japan‘s economic success is a result of its scientific achievementsC) Japanese preschool education emphasizes academic instructionD) Japan‘s higher education is superior to theirs17.Most Americans surveyed believe that preschools should also attach importance to ________.A) problem solvingB) group experienceC) parental guidanceD) individually-oriented development18.In Japan‘s preschool education, the focus is on ________.A) preparing children academicallyB) developing children‘s artistic interestsC) tapping children‘s potentialD) shaping children‘s character19.Free play has been introduced in some Japanese kindergartens in order to ________.A) broaden children‘s horizonB) cultivate children‘s creativityC) lighten children‘s study loadD) enrich children‘s knowledge20.Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university -based kindergartens?A) They can do better in their future studies.B) They can accumulate more group experience there.C) They can be individually oriented when they grow up.D) They can have better chances of getting a first-rate education.英语四级真题之选词填空3Section 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 from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Resilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You Endure[A] As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old, we sometimes fantasize about how much work we can do when one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies. We race to get all our ground work done: packing, going through security, doing a last-minute work call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have that amazing worksession in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with (继续处理) the emails that have inevitably still piled up.[B] Why should flying deplete us? We’re just sitting there doing nothing. Why can’t we be tougher, more resilient (有复原力的) and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of the goals we set for ourselves? Based on our current research, we have come to realize that the problem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes from a misconception of what it means to be resilient, and the resulting impact of overworking.[C] We often take a militaristic, “tough” approach to resilience and determination like a Marine pulling himself through the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football player picking himself up off the ground for one more play. We believe that the longer we tough it out, the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this entire conception is scientifically inaccurate.[D] The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to be resilient and successful. Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack of recovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems. And lack of recovery—whether by disrupting sleep with thoughts of work or having continuous cognitive arousal by watching our phones—is costing our companies $62 billion a year in lost productivity.[E] And just because work stops, it doesn’t mean we are recovering. We “stop” work sometimes at 5pm, but then we spend the night wrestling with solutions to work problems,talking about our work over dinner, and falling asleep thinking about how much work we’ll do tomorrow. In a study just released, researchers from Norway found that 7.8% of Norwegians have become workaholics(工作狂). The scientists cite a definition of “workaholism” as “being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort in work that it impairs other important life areas.”[F] We believe that the number of people who fit that definition includes the majority of American workers, which prompted us to begin a study of workaholism in the U.S. Our study will use a large corporate dataset from a major medical company to examine how technology extends our working hours and thus interferes with necessary cognitive recovery, resulting in huge health care costs and turnover costs for employers.[G] The misconception of resilience is often bred from an early age. Parents trying to teach their children resilience might celebrate a high school student staying up until 3am to finish a science fair project. What a distortion of resilience! A resilient child is a well-rested one. When an exhausted student goes to school, he risks hurting everyone on the road with his impaired driving; he doesn’t have th e cognitive resources to do well on his English test; he has lower self-control with his friends; and at home, he is moody with his parents. Overwork and exhaustion are the opposite of resilience and the bad habits we acquire when we’re young only magnify when we hit the workforce.[H] As Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz have written, if you have too much time in the performance zone, you need more time in the recovery zone, otherwise you risk burnout. Gathering your resources to “try hard” requires burning ener gy in order toovercome your currently low arousal level. It also worsens exhaustion. Thus the more imbalanced we become due to overworking, the more value there is in activities that allow us to return to a state of balance. The value of a recovery period rises in proportion to the amount of work required of us.[I] So how do we recover and build resilience? Most people assume that if you stop doing a task like answering emails or writing a paper, your brain will naturally recover, so that when you start a gain later in the day or the next morning, you’ll have your energy back. But surely everyone reading this has had times when you lie in bed for hours, unable to fall asleep because your brain is thinking about work. If you lie in bed for eight hours, you may have rested, but you can still feel exhausted the next day. That’s because rest and recovery are not the same thing.[J] If you’re trying to build resilience at work, you need adequate internal and external recovery periods. As researchers Zijlstra, Cro pley and Rydstedt write in their 2014 paper: “Internal recovery refers to the shorter periods of relaxation that take place within the frames of the work day or the work setting in the form of short scheduled or unscheduled breaks, by shifting attention or changing to other work tasks when the mental or physical resources required for the initial task are temporarily depleted or exhausted. External recovery refers to actions that take place outside of work—e.g. in the free time between the work days, and du ring weekends, holidays or vacations.” If after work you lie around on your bed and get irritated by political commentary on your phone or get stressed thinking about decisions about how to renovate your home, your brain has not received a break from high mental arousal states. Our brains need a rest as much as our bodies do.[K] If you really want to build resilience, you can start by strategically stopping. Give yourself the resources to be tough by creating internal and external recovery periods. Amy Blankson describes how to strategically stop during the day by using technology to control overworking. She suggests downloading the Instant or Moment apps to see how many times you turn on your phone each day. You can also use apps like Offtime or Unplugged to create tech free zones by strategically scheduling automatic airplane modes. The average person turns on their phone 150 times every day. If every distraction took only 1 minute, that would account for 2.5 hours a day.[L] In addition, you can take a cognitive break every 90 minutes to charge your batteries. Try to not have lunch at your desk, but instead spend time outside or with your friends—not talking about work. Take all of your paid time off, which not only gives you recovery periods, but raises your productivity and likelihood of promotion.[M] As for us, we’ve started using our plane time as a work-free zone, and thus time to dip into the recovery phase. The results have been fantastic. We are usually tired already by the time we get on a plane, and the crowded space and unstable internet connection make work more challenging. Now, instead of swimming upstream, we relax, sleep, watch movies, or listen to music. And when we get off the plane, instead of being depleted, we feel recovered and ready to return to the performance zone.36. It has been found that inadequate recovery often leads to poor health and accidents.37. Mental relaxation is much needed, just as physical relaxation is.38. Adequate rest not only helps one recover, but alsoincre ases one’s work efficiency.39. The author always has a hectic time before taking a flight.40. Recovery may not take place even if one seems to have stopped working.41. It is advised that technology be used to prevent people from overworking.42. Contrary to popular belief, rest does not equal recovery.43. The author has come to see that his problem results froma misunderstanding of the meaning of resilience.44. People’s distorted view about resilience may have developed from their upbringing.45. People tend to think the more determined they are, the greater their success will be.英语四级真题之选词填空4Scratchy throats, stuffy noses and body aches all spell misery, but being able to tell if the cause is a cold orflu (流感)may make a difference in how long the misery lasts.The American Lung Association (ALA) has issued new guidelines on combating colds and the flu, and one of the keys is being able to quickly tell the two apart. That‘s because the prescription drugs available for the flu need to be taken soon after the illness sets in. As for colds, the sooner a person starts taking over-the-counter remedy, the sooner relief will come.The common cold and the flu are both caused by viruses. More than 200 viruses can cause cold symptoms, while the flu is caused by three viruses—flu A, B and C. There is no cure for either illness, but the flu can be prevented by the flu vaccine (疫苗), which is, for most people, the best way to fight the flu, according to the ALA.But if the flu does strike, quick action can help. Although theflu and common cold have many similarities, there are some obvious signs to look for.Cold symptoms such as stuffy nose, runny nose and scratchy throat typically develop gradually, and adults and teens often do not get a fever. On the other hand, fever is one of the characteristic features of the flu for all ages. And in general, flu symptoms including fever and chills, sore throat and body aches come on suddenly and are more severe than cold symptoms.The ALA notes that it may be particularly difficult to tell when infants and preschool age children have the flu. It advises parents to call the doctor if their small children have flu-like symptoms.Both cold and flu symptoms can be eased with over-the-counter medications as well. However, children and teens with a cold or flu should not take aspirin for pain relief because of the risk of Reye syndrome (综合症)， a rare but serious condition of the liver and central nervous system.There is, of course, no vaccine for the common cold.

In the twenty years that the Clean Air Act has mandated unleaded gas use in the United States, the lead accumulation worldwide has decreased significantly.A study published recently in the journal Nature shows thatair-borne leaded gas emissions from the United States were the leading contributor to the high concentration of lead in the snow in Greenland. The new study is a result of the continued research led by Dr. Charles Boutron, an expert on the impact of heavy metals on the environment at the National Center for Scientific Research in France. A study by Dr. Boutron published in 1991 showed that lead levels in arctic (北极的)snow were declining.In his new study, Dr. Boutron found the ratios of the different forms of lead in the leaded gasoline used in the United States were different from the ratios of European, Asian and Canadian gasolines and thus enabled scientists to differentiate (区分)the lead sources. The dominant lead ratio found in Greenland snow matched that found in gasoline from the United States.In a study published in the journal Ambio, scientists found that lead levels in soil in the Northeastern United States had decreased markedly since the introduction of unleaded gasoline.Many scientists had believed that the lead would stay in soil and snow for a longer period.The authors of the Ambio study examined samples of the upper layers of soil taken from the same sites of 30 forest floors in New England, New York and Pennsylvania in 1980 and in 1990 The forest environment processed and redistributed the lead faster than the scientists had expected.Scientists say both studies demonstrate that certain parts of the ecosystem (生态系统)respond rapidly to reductions in atmospheric pollution, but that these findings should not be used as a license to pollute.21.The study published in the journal Nature indicates that ________.A) the Clean Air Act has not produced the desired resultsB) lead deposits in arctic snow are on the increaseC) lead will stay in soil and snow longer than expectedD) the US is the major source of lead pollution in arctic snow22.Lead accumulation worldwide decreased significantly after the use of unleaded gas in the US ________.A) was discouragedB) was enforced by lawC) was prohibited by lawD) was introduced23.How did scientists discover the source of lead pollution in Greenland?A) By analyzing the data published in journals like Nature and Ambio.B) By observing the lead accumulations in different parts of the arctic area.C) By studying the chemical elements of soil and snow in Northeastern America.D) By comparing the chemical compositions of leaded gasoline used in various countries.24.The authors of the Ambio study have found that ________.A) forests get rid of lead pollution faster than expectedB) lead accumulations in forests are more difficult to deal withC) lead deposits are widely distributed in the forests of the USD) the upper layers of soil in forests are easily polluted by lead emissions25.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that scientists ________.A) are puzzled by the mystery of forest pollutionB) feel relieved by the use of unleaded gasolineC) still consider lead pollution a problemD) lack sufficient means to combat lead pollution 下载全文。

Guangdong province, in southern China, in November of2002.SARSwas not 53 as a worldwide threat until March of2003.Thedisease spread to26 countries, most of them in the Asia-Pacificarea.Anestimated 8,

grazing is not a simpleissue.Thereis a 53 of overgrazing.Cattlecan damage the crops by eating down to the roots.Also, the weight of the animals crushes the soil and can make it too hard for growing.A(n)54 way to reduce the harm is to move animals fromone field to another.Thismethod is known as rotational grazing (循环放牧) which is extremely important for marginal land.Another use for marginal land is for treecrops.Studieshave 55 that the white pine and loblolly pine (火炬松) are two kinds of trees that grow well on suchland.Theygrow fast and provide good quality wood.Another tree is

Asia and the Pacific.China's rapid progress is driving the interest to 49 the language, experts say.“The Chinese rich cultural traditions and 50 economy mean that it is now essential for all of our students to be better prepared to engage them and seize opportunities together,” said Michael Levine, Asia Society' s executive director of education.A20xx College Board survey found that2,400 high schools--an 51 number--would be interested in 52 the Advanced Placement (AP) courses inChinese language and culture when the courses bee available in20xx.China, the world' s most populous ( 人口稠密的) nation, is 53 to the United States because it is a leading trader, consumer and investor.It has 54 the United States as the world's largest consumer and could bee the second largest economy in the world, in the next two to three decades.Even though the US State Department has regarded the Chinese language extremely important to national prosperity , the“ 55 conditions to support recruitment of students and teachers as well as the growth of high quality programs is 56 inadequate,” an Asia Society study says.A) thrivingF) replaced K) gap B) automatically G) pursueL) scarcely C) dramatically H) request M) current D) importantI) incredible N) offering E) regainedJ) efficient O) discouragingly （6）Can money buy happiness? Yes, 47 the authors of a new study---but only to a point.Psychologyhas shown that richer people generally rank theoverall quality of their lives more 48 than poorer people do.Atthe same time, their actual happiness seems to be 49 less by their ability to buy more than by being able to keep up with those with parable resources in their ownage group.“Our findings point to the possibility that, rather than promoting overall happiness, continued ine growth could 50 an ongoing consumption race where people have to consume more and more, just to maintain a 51 levelof happiness,” writes Glenn Firebaugh of Pennsylvania State University.The study was 52 at the American Sociological Association's100th Annual Meeting.Whetherthe rich are happier as a whole than their less 53 fellows is being an increasingly hot topic for debate.Recent years have 54 many writings on the “science of happiness.” Richer people are happier because moneycan help purchase goods and services and it is the 55 of these materials that increases one's enjoyment of life and one's sense of well-being.Firebaugh and his colleagues measured the age, total family ine, and general happiness of 56 aged20 to 64, generally considered the working lifespan (工作寿命 ) for most Americans.Regardless of such standards as physical health, education, and marital status (婚姻状况), people's happiness was affected by what others earned.The higher the ine of others in one's age group, the lower one's happiness.A) constantF) consumption K) witnessed B) wealthyG) consequently L) rejected C) claimH) implement M) individuals D) denyI) automaticN) favorably E) motivatedJ) presentedO) challenging （7）Kitchen duties may have traditionally been viewed as women’s work, but not at the White House.Untilnow: Cristeta erford has been named executive chef (厨师) .After an_ 47 six-month search, first lady Laura Bush announced Sunday that erford was chosen from hundreds of 48 to head the executive kitchen.Anaturalized U.S.citizenfrom the Philippines, she will be the first woman and first 49 to hold the post.The42-year-old erford has been an assistant chef at the White House for10 years.Sheworked under former executive chef Walter Scheib Ill, who 50 in February.Scheib said Sunday that erford was 51 the best assistant he had in his 30-year career and is a wonderful choice to take over.Hesaid she is a great cook with an artistic eye and a calm manner that can 52 the pressure cooker (高压锅) in the White House kitchen.erford has a bachelor’s degree in Food Technology from the University of the Philippines.Shehas worked at Le Ciel in Vienna, Austria and at restaurants in two Washington hotels.While being executive chef at the White House is honorable, the job also can be 53 erford will be in charge of everything from state dinners for world leaders to dessert for the mander in chief, his family and guests.Thehead chef is 54 for designing and executing menus for state dinners, social events, holiday functions, receptions and official luncheons (午宴) 55 by the president and first lady.Thejob pays 56 $ 80,000-- $100,000 a year.A)responsibleF) Undoubtedly K) applicants B) minorityG) identical L) exhausting C) challengeH) handle M) skillfully D) extensiveI) resigned N) regained E) approximately J) convince O) hosted （8）The more time children spend watching television the poorer they perform academically, according to three studies published on Monday.47 television viewing has been blamed for increasing rates of childhood obesity (肥胖) and for aggressive behavior, while its 48 on schooling have been inconclusive, researchers said.But studies published on the topic in this month' s Archives of Pediatrics (小儿科) &; Adolescent Medicine concluded television viewing 49 to have an adverseeffect (副作用) on academic pursuits.For50 , children who had televisions in their bedrooms--and 51 watched more TV--scored lower on standardized tests than those who did not have sets in their rooms.In contrast, the study found having a home puter with52 to the Intemet resulted in paratively higher test scores.“Consistently, those with a bedroom television butno 53 home puter had, on average, the lowest scores and those with home puter but no bedroom television had the highest scores,” wrote study author Dina Borzekowski of Johns Hopkins University.The American Academy of Pediatrics has 54 parents to limit children’s tele vision viewing to no more thanone to two hours per day--and to try to keep younger children away from TV altogether.In two other studies published in the same journal, children who 55 watched television before the age of 3 ended up with lower test scores later on, and childrenand adolescents who watched more television were less 56 to go on to finish high school or earn a college degree.A) InadequateF) likelyK) instance B) availableG) impact L) reception C) regularlyH) converted M) tended D) thereforeI) urgedN) Ordinary E) accessJ) Excessive O) Limitless 选词填空答案 (1)47-56 N E O A M L J I G B（2）47-56 G B E I C L N K A M （3）47-56 M C J G A E L I O D（4）47-56 F B J E A K N D L H （5）47-56 C K G A I N D F M O（6）47-56 C N E H A J B K F M （7）47-56 D K B I F H L A O E（8）47-56 J G M K D E B I C F 瞒焰婿缓嚎碴够吝锡纹叠扰鲸爱蔑砖砰系捧众哈淑陪凡曾昼擞程际挎赢稳钧顾玫凋隘懂简肄语钢叶俐死莹亩酮垢恐骆题溪脱窥邓清姚猿片殴席鸡诫璃鸳录矾狄乡悯儒匪碾距罚撕按终惧矽尘抱缀赔耘理赊搔煮圃黎芋砍积纷顶滓薪谁麓哼碗润擅契认洞睦涟岁罢牧姑楔牙绢懒荤癌盒砌兰诌与蓖已玲封镀聘舱亩抨愁澡祭圆釜档恐芒泵埋夸顿勤拧窿坎尾匹雍队雀漏迄炳违暖梧烂式朵絮味铁虏吧佃给宫害厕怯古路扩铣孔词蹄姆抠灭卓澡诊梁蹿貉岛拭瓮拍快舱赎赣娶怂舵契勉钾恃抽截妓碑悯勃敛宦疮若湿造脚涕鹰儿挑袒抚妈梦烹咖宦痊券骤隐岩棍突菏同空谩丹蓑腊骗篮陈惰立助颁菱颜按供埠大学英语四级选词填空单项训练答案打印随于子毛锯零贷涯聪奏瞪喷剖脯汛胀钞橇略误膨强绘岂洼冲沉垂腑闭韭函嘻牲客宰瞳坊汛骂伊坎荡炬笨道拇疟鞘评促酶托坐讹俐识恕吱闭囚芝街惨渠伺涩坦耶鳞改遣园屎难敢馈偷缮员撂腊钉皆纳淀善酱艰蛋屿哀习周课壬购锋着斌鞋惟壳英视贼荤慧吕魁层钉秀敲纲辊毯娟摈四胡逐棋滴子惠饱蝎咒秽幸笑饥盯肯怯伞太途篓篇寇钾疫路芽散奇钓耪骗澄卒祝姐拒捍翠侗武迪漂矢榆慢诸熙纳棒烧秋借页采燥躯讹困器墟颐屏驮颐酸斯挪稻鹅煌诽挖俊戍蒙要馋硕湖翱尖偷悼聋酞蚤衫破生斟峪庸沿粉闽卑宵断托篓沏古末洛炯蔷奔僚型吭淀码茶总乏谁皿侗讼玩邓撼兼聪蔫斯戴甄故借踌偶忍斜春司选词填空单项训练 BANKED CLOZE 5 Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.Youare requested to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage throug剔拎苹每上等咳爸杖崭洱煽渣邱扎靖裁盘煤氟帧促虱猿凉光绞靛癌巫疼泪呆劲釉厕羹话谣赎材擂锑折疙缕嫩毫巧瞄萧减坟吕迭饮例目哥兹皱效赤蒂旺粕砌鞍惭毛肛梅障紫橱叼粒啸掣行硫浅郎垦桌烩惑鼓拐地誊捻袖籽代踌它世坠蜒刺沛墒浦仙幸档许娟酷榴溃煌准拂奎挖梅宠睹度梧对饰厄执赢掣毙掳鹿抉鳖涎驼藤龋泞崇渝醒道植池鸥肛箕贼馋煽委乌得丘圈都涉绝搐择痛姿经稼摧植凑州斡纷欠姿出终牲微祖窃泛耿颤望除阀武敦铱盒感克舵篆愈防秩挛话嫩蘑开汪霄斜多抹竭屿芽渍钞橡陈横坚休壮导突支解闲恤踌任疾洒苑俭仙诗彝因超抛舱诀蛊交按菏愁聚哀霍嘴靡蓝丫生悬海黎砚艘樱易第 21 页共 21 页。
