Q: What do we know from the conversation?
Conversation One

M: As far as preparation is concerned, there will never be an end to it.
Q: What does the man imply?
15.
W: Could you spare me a few minutes to go over a letter I have just written? You see I've never written a letter in English before, so I've probably made lots of mistakes.
Conversation Two
W: Now I've got your background. Let's talk about the management trainee scheme. What exactly do you think a manager does?

M: The Dean just announced that Dr. Holden’s going to take over as chairman of the historydepartment.W: I knew it all along! He’s the obvious choice. All the other candidates are no match for him!Q: What does the woman mean? [D]12. W: Hey, let me know how your summer’s going! I’ll miss you guys while I’m here working inthe library.M: I’ll be working, too! But I’ll send you an email or call you once in a while. When we all get back to school, we can have a party or something.Q: What do we learn about the two speakers? [A]13. W: I know it’s the end of the season, but those peaches are such a bargain that I couldn’t helpbuying them! Have one please!M: Thank you! Actually, they seem past their prime.Q: What do we learn from the conversation? [B]14. M: The assignment on physics is a real challenge. I don’t think I can finish it on time all bymyself.W: Why don’t we join our efforts together? It may be easier then.Q: What does the woman suggest? [C]15. M: Jean really lost her temper in Dr. Brown’s class this morning.W: Oh, did she? But I think her frankness is really something to be appreciated.Q: What does the woman mean? [A]16. W: We heard that when you were a kid, you submitted a story to Reader’s Digest.M: Well, I don’t remember this story exactly, but my idea of a great time then was a pad of lined paper and a new blue pen. I thought of myself as a Reader’s Digest’s staff member at the age of six.Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation? [A]17. M: Your son certainly shows a lot of enthusiasm on the tennis court.W: I only wish he’d show as much for his studies.Q: What does the woman imply about her son? [D]18. W: We’re supposed to meet John here at the railway station.M: That’s like looking for a needle in a hay stack.Q: What does the man imply? [C]Conversation OneM: Sally, I heard from the radio that over half the world’s seven thousand languages are in danger of disappearing. Every two weeks one language disappears.W: So fast?M: Yes, so Mr. Harrison and Mr. Anderson are heading Living Tongues, an organization to study and protect endangered languages.W: Why do these languages disappear?M: Sometimes a language disappears immediately when the last person speaking it dies. Or,a local language might disappear more slowly. This happens when an official language isused more often and children stop learning the local language of their parents. This is nota new process. Official languages often represent a form of control over a group ofpeople.W: Can you explain it a bit further?M: Throughout history, the language spoken by a powerful group spreads across a civilization. The more powerful culture rarely respects the language and culture ofsmaller ethnic groups. So, smaller cultures lose their local language as the language ofthe culture in power becomes the stronger influence.W: I can see your point now.M: The Internet could be thought of as a new method of language control. The United Nations cultural organization, UNESCO, says that ninety percent of the world’s languages are not represented on the Internet.W: I guess we do need to protect these languages.M: Experts say protecting languages is very important for many reasons. Languages contain the histories, ideas and knowledge of a culture. Languages also contain valuable information about local medicines, plants and animals. Bringing back threatened languages is not easy, but it is very important work.W: No doubt.19. What is the organization Living Tongues aimed at? [A]20. Why do some cultures lose their local languages? [C]21. What is the Internet blamed for? [B]22. What does the speakers stress in the end? [D]Conversation TwoM: Look at all the equipment here. They must be used for some kind of sport.W: You are right. They are for climbing mountains. Have you ever tried that before?M: No, never, have you?W: Almost for five years.M: Five years? Wow! Isn’t it a bit dangerous? I heard that a 21-year-old college student lost his life when climbing the cliff the other day.W: Yes, it does happen from time to time, most often by people who just try when they are not yet ready for any risk.M: Are there any climbing clubs for freshmen to join?W: Yes, for sure. But you need time to pick out the best one. Nowadays, too many of these climbing clubs are too eager to initiate trips without checking properly the skill levels of the climbers.M: Well, as a veteran, what experience do you think you can share with others?W: Well, climbing success is considered by most to be almost 100 percent dependent on fitness and natural ability. But in reality, climbing is a much more subtle and complicated skill that needs not just fitness, but strategy and psychology.M: That’s interesting to hear.W: Over the years, I’ve picked up numerous tricks and techniques that have allowed me to occasionally beat a stronger competitor. At the grass-roots level, it is possible to just outride your opponents, but as you get into the higher categories and the gap in ability narrows, strategy becomes increasingly important.M: Well, Katrina, thanks for your kind suggestion.W: My pleasure.23. What can be inferred about the woman? [B]24. According to the woman, why do most climbing accidents occur? [A]25. What are more important to climbing success in the long run? [C]Section CPassage OneI had flown from San Francisco to Virginia to attend a conference on multiculturalism. Hundreds of educators from across the country were meeting to discuss the need for greater cultural diversity in the school curriculum. I took a taxi to my hotel. On the way, my driver and I chatted about the weather and the tourists. The driver was a white man in his forties. “How long have you been in this country?”he asked. “All my life!”I replied, “I was born in the United States.”With a strong southern accent, he remarked, “I was wondering because your English is excellent.”Then I explained as I had done many times before, “My grandfather came here from China in the 1880s. My family has been here in America for over a hundred years.”He glanced at me in the mirror. Somehow, I did not look “American”to him. My appearance looked foreign. Questions like the one my taxi driver asked make me feel uncomfortable. But I can understand why he could not see me as an American. He had a narrow but widely-shared sense of the past: a history that has viewed Americans as descendants of Europeans. Race has functioned as something necessary to the construction of American character and quality. In the creation of our national identity, American has been defined as “white”. But America has been racially diverse since our very beginning on the Virginia shore, where the first group of Englishmen and Africans arrived in the 17th century. And this reality is increasingly becoming visible everywhere.26. What was the theme of the conference the speaker was to attend? [C]27. Why did the taxi driver ask the speaker how long he has been in the US? [D]28. What message did the speaker wish to convey? [A]Passage TwoLaws have been written to govern the use of the American National Flag, and to ensure proper respect for the flag. Custom has also governed the common practice in regard to its use. All the armed services have precise regulations on how to display the national flag. This may vary somewhat from the general rules. The national flag should be raised and lowered by hand. Do not raise the flag while it is folded. Unfold the flag first, and then hoist it quickly to the top of the flagpole. Lower it slowly and with dignity. Place no objects on or over the flag. Do not use the flag as part of a costume or athletic uniform. Do not print it upon cushions, handkerchiefs, paper napkins or boxes. A federal law provides that the trademark cannot be registered if it comprises the flag, coat of arms, or badges of the United States. When the flag is used in unveiling a statue ormonument, it shouldn’t serve as a covering of the object to be unveiled. If it is displayed on such occasions, do not allow the flag to fall to the ground, but let it be carried high up in the air to form a feature of the ceremony. Take every precaution to prevent the flag from becoming soiled. It should not be allowed to touch the ground or floor, nor to brush against objects.29. How do Americans ensure proper respect for the national flag? [A]30. What is the regulation regarding the raising of the American National Flag? [B]31. How should the American National Flag be displayed at an unveiling ceremony? [D]32. What do we learn about the use of the American National Flag? [C]Passage ThreeIn some large American city schools, as many as 20~40%of the students are absent each day. There are two major reasons for such absences: one is sickness, and the other is truancy, that is, staying away from school without permission. Since school officials can’t do much about illness, they are concentrating on reducing the number of truants. One of the most promising schemes has been tried in Florida. The pupils there with good attendance have been given free hamburgers, toys and T-shirts. Classes are told that if they show improved rates of attendance, they can win additional gifts. At the same time, teachers are being encouraged to inspire their students to come to school regularly. When those teachers are successful, they are also rewarded. “We’ve been punishing truants for years, but that hasn’t brought them back to school,”one school principal said. “Now we are trying the positive approach. Not only do you learn by showing up every day, but you earn.”In San Francisco, the board of education has had a somewhat similar idea. Schools that show a decrease in deliberate destruction of property can receive the amount of money that would’ve been spent on repairs and replacements. For example, 12,000 dollars had been set aside for a school’s property damages every year. Since repair expenses of damaged property required only 4,000 dollars, the remaining 8,000 dollars was turned over to the student activities fund. “Our democracy operates on hope and encouragement,”said the school board member. “Why not provide some positive goals for students and teachers to aim at?”33. Which reason for students’ absences is discussed in great detail? [C]34. Who will benefit from the scheme being tried in Florida? [D]35. What measure has been taken in San Francisco to reduce the destruction of schoolproperty? [B]。

2012级四级模拟考试二答案Part I Writing (15%)Sample:This picture shows us a satirical fairy tale. During recruitment (job interview) in the forest, a cat wearing a graduation cap (mortar board) is interviewed for a job by a tiger. The cat says arrogantly, “Since I have such an excellent degree, I should be king of the forest.”The picture means to show that the cat can‟t evaluate his own abilities accurately. He attaches too much importance to his diploma while neglecting what he is actually capable of, thereby becoming blindly proud and wants to become the kind of the forest.This is a reflection of the real world. We often see people who achieved high marks in college but are incapable of applying in real life what they have learned. Some people have PhDs in medicine but can‟t treat patients. Some have master‟s degrees in finance but can‟t even use a cash register. This phenomenon can be seen in almost all fields, and it has already had a profoundly negative impact. If left unresolved, this problem will hinder the development of the society.We, as the architects of our country, should lay emphasis not only on diplomas, but also on personal capabilities. Employers should also be reminded not to continue their common practice of concentrating only on diplomas during the hiring process.Part II Reading Comprehension (Long Passage) (10%)1- 5 F I D E L 6-10 B C J H EPart III Listening Comprehension (35%)11-15 C C D B B 16-20 C A D C A 21-25 B A C B A26-30 A A D C B 31-35 A D C B B36) views 37) spirit 38) situation 39) illustrate 40) yield to41) particularly 42) ignore 43) abides by 44) arrest 45) figure outPart IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25%)46-50 M D O J E 51-55 I G B C K56-60 C D A C B 61-65 A D A C BPart V Translation (15%)Chinese knot is a unique Chinese handicraft with a long history.

That way you can get the message out to the entire campus.[07:05.75]M: Uh-oh, that means I had better come up with an article pretty quickly.How about if I write it up and I‟ll let you be the first to read it? How about after English class tomorrow?[07:21.81]W: Sounds like a plan. I‟ll see you then.[07:25.70]M: Y ou‟re the greatest. I don‟t think I would have known what to do without your help.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard. C A B[07:41.33]19. What are the two speakers mainly talking about?[08:00.39]20. What can the woman‟s friend who works at the campus print shop help to do? [08:20.69]21. What does the man think of the woman?Conversation Two[08:41.69]M: Last time we talked about the history of paper, but do you know what paper is used for?[08:49.15]W: Oh, that‟s an easy question. Paper is used for newspapers, books, writing paper, envelopes, wrapping paper, paper bags...[09:00.44]M: Y es, actually only half of the paper that is made is used for such purposes. Have you got an idea about other uses of paper?[09:12.66]W: No, I‟m afraid not.[09:15.29]M: There are many other uses. Paper is very good for keeping you warm. Houses are often prevented against cold by paper. Y ou have perhaps seen homeless people asleep on a large number of newspapers.[09:33.53]W: Yes, I have. So they are preventing themselves against cold.[09:39.25]M: Y ou are right. In Finland, it is very cold in winter. It is sometimes 40 degrees Centigrade below zero. The farmers wear paper boots in the snow. Nothing could be warmer. [09:55.06]W: Oh, that‟s unbelievable.[09:57.90]M: Now more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper plates, cups and dishes for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper.[10:12.66]W: Amazing![10:14.81]M: People have made paper boats, but they have not yet made paper planes or cars. Just wait, they probably will.[10:24.22]W: Well, you have become an expert on paper. How do you know all that?[10:30.43]M: Y ou know, I‟m preparing for a presentation on paper, so I‟ve looked up a lot of material.[10:38.48]W: Well, I‟m sure your presentation will go really well.[10:42.51]M: Thank you.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard. A C B A[10:53.23]22. What function does paper perform in house-building?[11:12.53]23. Why do farmers of Finland wear paper boots in winter?[11:32.40]24. What do we learn about paper planes and cars?[11:51.62]25. How has the man got to know so much about paper?[12:10.78]Section B Passages[12:43.80]Passage One[12:45.78]When I was 11, I loved rock …n‟ roll, and more than anything else.[12:52.23]I wanted a record player for Christmas. Dad‟s army salary went only so far, [12:59.53]so he took a 1-dollar-an-hour job in the Post Exchange, swallowing his pride and working to buy me that record player.[13:10.22]A couple of months later, my father needed to have a heart surgery.[13:15.89]Tragically, the doctor made a mistake and gave him the blood of wrong type, and Dad‟s organs broke down, one by one. For five days he knew he was dying.[13:30.24]On his last day he wrote me a letter.[13:33.47]Mom handed me this letter only after I was honored along with other kids[13:39.73]at a seventh- and eighth-grade awards dinner.[13:43.85]When my dad died in my mother‟s arms, the last thing he said to her was,[13:50.12] “Make sure Jimmy gets to that dinner and don‟t tell him about this until it‟s over.”[13:56.67]Mom and Dad had only one serious argument.[14:01.07]He wanted mortgage insurance on our home.[14:04.68]He said, “It‟s the only investment we have, and if anything happens to me,[14:10.25]you and the kids will have the house.”“We can‟t afford it,” Mom said.[14:15.81]Six months after this argument, Dad died, and Mom thought we‟d lose the house. But three weeks later the insurance company sent an employee[14:26.86]with a check for the entire mortgage.[14:29.79]My father had somehow scraped the money together.[14:33.18]He was the most remarkable man I have ever known,[14:37.31]and he cared for his family above all.[14:42.53]Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard. A A D[14:50.02]26. How did the speaker‟s father manage to buy him the record player?[15:10.67]27. Why did the father‟s heart surgery fail?[15:29.39]28. What do we learn about the father‟s investment?[15:48.29]Passage Two[15:51.16]As a young man, Howard White of Portland, Oregon, was a basketball star at the University of Maryland and was drafted by the NBA, but knee injuries interrupted his career. [16:04.98]White is now vice-president of Jordan Brand for Nike Inc.[16:10.68]He considers himself a fortunate man[16:13.50]and thinks that his good fortune has been aided by his belief,[16:17.74]that is, small things in life, such as a simple polite greeting, can lead to large outcomes.[16:25.83]He works at a company where there are thousands of employees.[16:30.27]Though he doesn‟t know them all by name, he knows a fair share of them.[16:35.41]And almost all of them know him. It‟s all based on one simple principle:[16:42.26]he believes every single person deserves to be acknowledged.[16:46.72]For him, that begins with “hello.”[16:51.26]One day when White was about 10 years old, he was walking down the street with his mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee.[17:01.14]White was busy trying to hit the “O” in the stop sign with a rock and didn‟t pay any attention to Mr. Lee. After they passed Mr. Lee his mother said something that has stuck with him from then on.[17:16.25]She said, “Y ou let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody[17:22.14]and not open up your mouth to speak,[17:25.07]because even a dog can wave its tail when it passes you on the street.”[17:30.96]That phrase sounds simple but it‟s been a guideline for Howard White[17:35.72]and the foundation of who he is.[17:41.13]Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard. C B A D [17:48.40]29. What do we learn about Howard White?[18:07.03]30. What is the belief that contributes to Howard White‟s good fortune?[18:25.98]31. Why could most of the employees in the company know Howard White? [18:45.63]32. Why did White‟s mother blame him?[19:03.32]Passage Three[19:05.52]Many deaths from home fires are the result of burns and panic,[19:11.57]but most are caused by deadly smoke and gases.[19:16.20]These fatal fires are often caused by such careless acts as throwing away a lighted match or cigarette, allowing rubbish to pile up, overloading electrical wires, or misuse of heating and cooking equipment.[19:35.70]Few families go to bed at night without first checking to make sure that the doors and windows are locked, but they overlook a very basic fire safety rule.[19:48.83]This rule states that people should sleep with their bedroom doors closed.[19:55.18]Nighttime fires are most serious because the family is asleep and the discovery of fire is usually too late.[20:04.99]A closed bedroom door gives extra protection by delaying the gases and fire, thus giving the family a few minutes to escape.[20:16.31]Not everyone flees quickly from a burning home.[20:20.19]Children often panic and hide in closets or under beds.[20:26.12]Being prepared or knowing what to do in case fire breaks out can mean the difference between life and death.[20:35.46]All members of the family should know certain basic steps.[20:40.75]Everyone should know an escape route and second route from each room in the house.[20:48.38]A family should determine a way in which any members can sound an alarm. [20:55.12]And family members should be taught not to waste time getting dressed or collecting valuable possessions. Speed is necessary in escaping from fire.[21:10.81]Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard. C B B [21:18.28]33. What is the main cause of death during home fires?[21:38.26]34. What is the basic fire safety rule before people go to bed at night?[21:59.34]35. How do children often react in case of fire?Section C Spot DictationWhat does it mean to obey the law? That depends on where you are. Different cultureshave very different 36) views of obeying the law. In some cultures, law-abiding citizens try to keep the letter of the law. That is, whatever the law says, they do. In other cultures, good citizens live by the 37) spirit of the law. They see the law only as a general guideline. Often they obey the law only when someone official is looking. The 38) situation in America fits into the first category. That doesn‟t mean all Americans keep the law. But American culture teaches people to respect the law—even to the smallest detail.Driving habits 39) illustrate American respect for the law. A driver will usually stop for a red light, even when there are no other cars around. People treat the lines marking streets and roads as definite boundaries, not just decorations. V ehicles 40) yield to those with the right of way—41) particularly pedestrians. Actually, though, drivers don‟t always keep traffic rules. For example, many drivers 42) ignore freeway speed limits. But Americans generally drive with careful attention to the traffic rules.Of course, not everyone in America 43) abides by the law. Crime is a growing problem. For that reason, law enforcement officials will never be out of a job. Police officers have their hands full trying to 44) arrest lawbreakers. Detective agencies spend countless hours trying to 45) figure out unsolved crimes. Nevertheless, most Americans still like to believe that the law will eventually catch the bad guys.。

1. 盗版软件比比皆是2. 盗版软件猖獗的原因3. 如何打击盗版软件Part ⅡReading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions:In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1.For questions 1--7, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Theft Deterrent System To deter the vehicle theft, the system is designed to give an alarm and keep the engine from being started if any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is forcibly unlocked or the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnected when the vehicle is locked. The alarm blows the horn intermittently and flashes the headlights, tail lights and other exterior lights. The engine cannot be started because the starter circuit will be cut. SETTING THE SYSTEM 1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position and remove it. 2. Have all passengers get out of the vehicle. 3. Close and lock the front, sliding and back doors and hood.The indicator light will come on when the front, sliding and back doors and hood are closed and locked. As the front doors are locked, the system will give you a preparation time of 30 seconds before the setting, during which the front, sliding and back doors and hood may be opened to prepare for the setting.Be careful not to use the key when opening either front door. This will cancel the system. 4. After making sure the indicator light starts flashing, you may leave the vehicle. The system will automatically be set after the preparation time elapses. The indicator light will flash to show the system is set. If any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is opened at that time, the setting is interrupted until it is closed and locked. Never leave anyone in the vehicle when you set the system, because unlocking from the inside will activate (使启动)the system. WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET Activating the system, the system will give the alarm and cut the starter circuit under the following conditions: If any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is unlocked without using the key. If the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnected, after one minute, the alarm will automatically stop with the starter circuit cut kept on. Reactivating the alarm Once set, the system automatically resets the alarm each time the front, sliding and back doors and hood are closed after the alarm stops. The alarm will be activated again under the following conditions: If any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is opened. Stopping the alarm Turn the ignition key from the “LOCK” to “ACC” position. The alarm will be stopped with the starter circuit cut kept on. Stopping the alarm in this manner will keep the alarm from being reactivated when any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is opened. Interrupting the setting With the system set, the back door can be opened with the key without activating or canceling the system. While it is open, the front and sliding doors and hood may be opened in addition, and the system can be activated only by the battery terminal disconnection. To resume the setting, close and lock the front, sliding and back doors and hood. The back door must be closed with the key removed. CANCELLING THE SYSTEM Unlock either front door with the key, or unlock the sliding door with the key when it has been closed. This cancels the system completely and the starter circuit cut will be cancelled at once. INDICATOR LIGHT The indicator light gives the following three indications when the system is in use. When the light is: FLASHING—The system is set. You need the key to open the front, sliding and back doors and hood. ON—The system will automatically be set when the time comes. The front, sliding and back doors and hood may be opened without a key. OFF—The system is inactive. You may open any door and hood. TESTING THE SYSTEM 1. Open the driver’s and front passenger’s windows. 2. Set the system as described above. The front doors should be locked with the key. Be sure to wait until the indicator light starts flashing. 3. Unlock one of the front, sliding and back doors from the inside. The system should activate the alarm. 4. Cancel the system by unlocking either front door with the key. 5. Repeat this operation for the other doors and hood. When testing on the hood, also check that the system is activated when the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnected. If the system does not work properly, have it checked by your Toyota dealer.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

model test 2 答案
Model Test 2PART IV GRAMMAR AND VOCABULARY51. 参考答案:DTIP:在“It is/was/will be the first time + that分句”结构中,当主句动词为is/will be时,that分句动词一律用现在完成时,引导词that可以省略。
当主句动词为was时,that分句动词通常用过去完成时。
52. 参考答案:BTIP:fast强调速度快,且保持不变,又指钟表的时间超过准确的时间;hasty指匆忙、急促,涉及因此而引起的慌乱、疏漏;quick强调动作、行为发生得突然且持续时间短;rapid指就整个过程来讲速度快,但并不一定指这一过程的速度始终均匀不变。
原句意为“别匆忙下结论”,故答案选B。
53. 参考答案:BTIP:该题考点为集体名词作主语时的主谓一致,如主语是由“a committee of / a panel of / a board of +复数名词”构成,随后的动词通常用单数。
计划要做还没有做的事用“to+不定式”的结构。
54. 参考答案:CTIP:used to表示过去习惯动作或状态,这种情况现已不复存在。
其在肯定疑问句中可有两种形式:“Used you to ...?”或者“Did you use to ...?”,故答案选C。
55.参考答案:CTIP:在既指人又指事物的两个或两个以上的先行词后面应用关系代词that,故答案选C。
56. 参考答案:ATIP:由if only 引导的句子习惯上要用虚拟语气——与过去事实相反则谓语动词用had done;与现在事实相反谓语动词用did。
57. 参考答案:BTIP:考查“more ... than ...”表示“不是……而是”、“更像……而不像”、“与其……不如”的用法。
在理解时要注意more前面的not。
原句的大意是:然而,这可能更像是在威胁环境,而不是威胁人类发展。
或:然而,这与其说是威胁了人类发展,还不如说是威胁了环境。
ModelTestAnswer
ModelTestAnswerModel Test 1快速阅读1.答案为Y;题目意思是:汽车尽管在生活中必不可少,但给城市生活的各个方面带来了负面影响。
根据全文,尤其是小标题,不难得出答案为Y。
2. 答案为N;题目意思是:汽车产生的社会隔离问题在郊区并不存在,因为汽车在郊区不普及。
而原文第二段第二句表明这一问题不仅在郊区存在,而且更为突出,所以题目错误。
3. 答案为Y;题目意思是:人们步行、骑车或是乘坐公交车辆时,会更关注环境。
与原文第三段第四句中“feel a sense of responsibility for the environments”的意思相同,因此本句答案为Y。
4. 答案为Y;题目意思是:汽车交通引起的噪音、危险和污染是街区生活和社会交往减少的原因。
原文第四段开头两句话就指出,街区生活随着车辆在街道上的增加而消失,并指出直接原因是噪音、危险和污染,因此题目正确。

根据原文第十段最后一句的内容判断本句答案为Y。
6. 答案为N;题目意思是:由于更高的汽车技术,在美国,汽车所消耗的国民收入在减少。

7. 答案为NG;题目意思是:在南亚,将近一半的市区土地被用来建造汽车公路。
而原文第十五段谈论汽车公路的占地问题是以美国为例,没有提到亚洲的情况。
8. 答案为the car;题目意思是:造成美国年轻人死亡最主要的原因是什么?根据原文第八段第三句话指出汽车是造成美国年轻人死亡最主要的原因。

Finally, it is also difficult to prevent the net from theinvasion of hackers and viruses.Nevertheless, we should not give up eating for fear of choking.

Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions:In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Entertainment in London (PP.13-15)Buying BooksLondoners are great readers. They buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and even of books especially paperbacks, which are still comparatively cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. They still continue to buy “proper” books, too, printed on good paper and bound between hard covers.There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book-selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charing Cross Road in the very heart of London. Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which boasts of being "the biggest bookshop in the world" to the tiny, dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dickens' time. Many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books of philosophy, politics or any other of the various subjects about which books may be written. One shop in this area specializes solely in books about ballet!Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books, Charing Cross Road is not the cheapest. For the really cheap second-hand volumes, the collector must venture off the busy and crowded roads, to Farringdon Road in the East Central district of London. Here there is nothing so grand as bookshops. Instead, the booksellers come along each morning and tip out their sacks of books on to barrows(推车) which line the gutters (贫民区). And the collectors, some professional and some amateur, who have been waiting for them, pounce towards the sellers. In places like this one can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old volume that may be worth many pounds.Both Charing Cross Road and Farringdon Road are well-known places of the book buyer. Yet all over London there are bookshops, in places not so well known, where the books are equally varied and exciting. It is in the sympathetic atmosphere of such shops that the loyal book buyer feels most at home. In these shops, even the life-long book-browser is frequently rewarded by the accidental discovery of previously unknown delights. One could, in fact, easily spend a lifetime exploring London's bookshops. There are many less pleasant ways of spending time!Going to the TheatreLondon is very rich in theatres: there are over forty in the West End alone-more than enough to ensure that there will always be at least two or three shows running to suit every kind taste, whether serious or lighthearted.Some of them are specialist theatres. The Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, where the great opera singers of the world can be heard, is the home of opera and the Royal Ballet. The London Coliseum now houses the English National Opera Company, which encourages English singers in particular and performs most operas in English at popular prices.Some theatres concentrate on the classics and serious drama, some on light comedy, some on musicals. Most theatres have a personality of their own, from the old, such as the Theatre Royal (also called the “Haymarket”) in the Haymarket, to the more modern such as the recently opened Baibican centre in the city. The National Theatre has three separate theatres in its new building by Waterloo Bridge. At the newBarbican centre the Royal Shakespeare Company has their London home-their other centre is at Stratford-on-Avon.Most of the old London theatres are concentrated in a very small area, within a stone's throw of the Piccadilly and Leicester Square tube stations. As the evening performances normally begin either at seven-thirty or eight p. m., there is a kind of minor rush-hour between seven-fifteen and eight o'clock in this district. People stream out of the nearby tube stations, the pavements are crowded, and taxis and private cars maneuver into position as they drop theatre-goers outside the entrance to each theatre. There is another minor rush-hour when the performance finishes. The theatre in London is very popular and it is not always easy to get in to see a successful play.Before World War II, theatre performances began later and a visit to the theatre formal occasion. Nowadays very few people "dress" for the theatre (that is, wear formal evening dress) except for first nights or an important performance. The times of performance were put forward during the war and have not been put back. The existing times make the question of eating a rather tricky problem: one has to have either early dinner or late supper. Many restaurants in "theatreland" ease the situation by catering specially for early or late dinners.Television and the difficulty of financing plays have helped to close many theatres. But it seems that the worst of the situation is now over and that the theatre, after a period of decline, is about to pick up again. Although some quite large provincial towns do not have a theatre, there are others, such as Nottingham, Hull, Coventry or Newcastle, which have excellent companies and where a series of plays are performed during one season by a resident group of actors. Some towns such as Chichester or Edinburgh have theatres which give summer seasons. Even in small towns a number of theatres have been built in the last few years to cater for the local population.Music in BritainIt is debatable whether the tastes of kings reflect those of their subjects. However, three English monarchs certainly shared their people's linking for music. Richard I (1157-1199), the “Lionheart”, composed songs that he sang with hismusician, Blondel. It is said that when the king was a prisoner in Austria, Blondel found him by singing a song known only to him and the king, who took up the tune in the tower of the castle in which he was secretly imprisoned. Henry VIII (1491-1547), notorious for his six wives, was a skilled musician and some of his songs are still known and sung. Queen Victoria (1819-1901) and her husband, Prince Albert, delighted in singing ballads. The great composer and pianist Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) was a welcome guest at their court, where he would accompany the Queen and the Prince when they sang.The British love of music is often unfamiliar to foreigners, probably because there are few renowned British composers. The most famous is Henry Purcell (1659-1695), whose opera Dido and Aeneas is a classic. The rousing marching song Lillibulero attributed to Purcell, now used by BBC as an identification signal preceding Overseas Service news bulletins, was said to have "sung James II out of three kingdoms" when he fled from Britain in 1688. Sir Edward Elgar (1857-1934) is known for his choral and orchestral works, some of which have been made more widely known by the famous violinist Yehudi Menuhin. Benjamin Britten (1913-1976), a composer with a very personal style, has become world-famous for such operatic works as Peter Grimes and Billy Budd. Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) was deeply influenced by English folk music, as is shown by his variations on the old tune Green-sleeves (which most people consider a folk song). In recent years there has been a great revival of folk music, and groups specializing in its performance have sprung up all over Britain. This phenomenon has its roots in the work of Cecil Sharp (1859-1924), who collected folk songs and dances.Present-day concern with music is shown by the existence of something like a hundred summer schools in music, which cater for all grades of musicians, from the mere beginner to the skilled performer. These schools, where a friendly atmosphere reigns, provide courses lasting from a weekend to three or four weeks, and cover a wide range, from medieval and classical music to rock-and-roll and pop. There are also important musical festivals in towns such as Aldeburgh, Bath, and Cheltenham. Pop-music festivals draw thousands of people, especially young people. In the greatcities there are resident world-famous orchestras and from all over the world great performers come to play or sing in Britain. In many towns there are brass bands, and the players are often such people as miners or members of the local fire brigade, for music in Britain is not just an elegant interest, it is above all democratic.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

卡内基基金会的报告表明一种狭隘的职业教育观在大学里盛行。
在大学里,培养学生的各种技能成为了教育的目的,而学生的综合素质教育却被忽视。
