大学英语四级口语考试流程、成绩描述及真题（近三年）汇总！
may come to a standstill, because bad weathers definitely cause flight delay and traffic jams. Measures should be taken immediately. Firstly, it is advisable that the authority enact related rules to limit the needless consumption and illegal acts. In addition, each one should enhance the environmental awareness and within our power do something beneficial. For example, we can carry around a canvas bag each time to replace plastic ones, eliminating white pollution. Only when all unit as one can we prevent the whole world from worse situation.社区活动的重要性As the pace of urbanization speeds up, a host of large communities have been formed, especially in metropolis. Therefore, organizing appropriate community activities becomes particularly vital. For one thing, given that we are occupied with work and rarely go out, the activities can provide us opportunities to chat or interact with neighbors and reduce unnecessary conflicts. For instance, community staff can hold parents-child campaigns, in which children make new friends and parents share their experience about raising a child. For another thing, community activities affect positively in various aspects, which not only enrich our daily life, but provide physical and mental benefits. Communities, coupled with hospitals, offer door-to-door service such as physical examination to the elderly, thus guaranteeing their health condition. All in all, contemporary society should concentrate on community activities, which aim to bring benefits to residents.存钱的重要性In terms of current depressed economic situation and potential risk, saving certain money seems to be agreed widely. The primary reason is to avoid short-term financial burden. When laid off or suffering from accidents and sickness, citizens have to take out sufficient money in order to go through the storm.On this condition, the money saved in advance matters a lot. Besides, after retiring, the elderly need abundant material resources to support themselves, so accumulating almost half of their salary from adulthood plays a significant role. Generally speaking, it is necessary to make budgets at the start of a month, which ensures that they can not only live a better life, but collect plenty of money.All in all, having a plan and following the schedule can do nothing but help you out in the long run.对整容的看法What do you think of plastic surgery?Nowadays, more and more people tend to have a plastic surgery. People want to become more beautiful and attractive and keep their youth for a longer time. However, while people keen on improving their appearance, they are more likely to neglect the potential dangers behind plastic surgery.For one thing, driven by the money, some hospitals and doctors make exaggerating advertisements to attract people's attention, even cheat them. The fact is that they do not have those high technologies. We can not imagine how dangerous to the patients if their doctors are not professional enough. Besides, there are many people whose body are sensitive and are under the great risks of infections and complications, even death. For another, the sufferers have to bear the curious looks from their friends and acquaintances after the operation. Sometimes, they themselves also have psychological problems for they think they are not real beauties, but artificial beauties.To sum up, in some extents, plastic surgery plays a positive role in our society , but we should never neglect those side effects I mentioned above. There are nothing wrong for one to pursue beauty, what we should do is to choose an appropriate method to achieve this goal and cherishwhat we have now.如何与他⼈友好相处Getting along well with others is an essential capacity for every individual in our daily lives especially in such a competitively fierce society. To do it well, some vital factors should be taken into consideration.First and foremost, we should be honest to the people contacted with. As far as I am concerned, honesty is one of the most valuable personality in human beings. It makes us feel comfortable and sincere when we get along with others. And being honest can also make us express ourselves freely and excitedly, which renders us enthusiastic. Only when people treat each other frankly and honestly, can they build a trustworthy relationship from the bottom of heart and get along well. In addition, responsibility is another one everybody should equip with, especially when others are in trouble. The sense of responsibility and accountability strengthen the relationship between people, which can pose great security and safety to others.Above all, getting along well with each other will exert great influence on our lives and trying to embrace honesty, responsibility and kindness is of great importance forever.增强中学⽣⽣活技能的重要性Promote Life Skills for Middle School StudentsEducation is about giving people the opportunity to develop their potential, their personality and their strengths. This does not merely mean learning new knowledge，but also developing abilities to make the most of life. These are called life skills-- including the inner capacities and the practical skills. We need to increase our life skills at every stage of life, especially the secondary education when students are in the stage of building their personality.For one thing, practical life skills are the kinds of manual skills the middle students need for the physical tasks they face. These are skills which are often available to middle school students leaving school. For another, in today's world all these skills are necessary, in order to face rapid change in society. They need to know how to cope with the flood of information and turn it into useful knowledge. They also need to learn how to handle changes in society and in their own lives.In conclusion, the middle school students should recognize the importance of life skills--both practical and psycho-social---as part of education which leads to the full development of human potential and to the development of society.话题讨论探望⽣病的同学A: Hey, Mona, I just heard that Lucy went through an small operation yesterday and is now in the hospital.B: Yes, I've heard that too.

英语四级口语考试等级划分
英语四级口语考试等级划分1. 嘿，宝子们！知道英语四级口语考试的等级划分不？就像爬山一样，有不同的高度阶段呢。
这等级划分可重要啦。
比如说，要是你想进外企，等级高那就是你的“敲门砖”。
它总共分A、B、C、D四个等级。
A就像山顶的明珠，那是最厉害的。
2. A级啊，那可不得了。
这就好比是学霸中的学霸，在口语的世界里那是“大神”级别的。
比如说那些可以和外国人流利对话，还能在辩论中说得对方心服口服的人。
在口语考试里，他们的语音语调就像音乐一样优美，用词精准得像神箭手射箭，百发百中。
这等级的人可不多，要是你能达到，哇塞，那简直酷毙了。
3. B级呢，也是相当不错的。
这就像是班级里的好学生，虽然不是最顶尖，但也很厉害。
就像我有个朋友，他口语挺顺溜的，能表达自己的想法，偶尔有点小错误，但不影响交流。
在四级口语考试里，B级的人语音语调大体准确，表达也比较清晰。
这就像是走在平坦大道上，虽然有点小石子，但不影响赶路。
4. C级的话，就有点像刚刚开始学走路的小孩，能走，但是走得不太稳。
我遇到过一些同学，他们能把自己的基本想法说出来，可是语法错误有点多，语音语调也不是很标准。
在四级口语考试中，C级的人就像是在迷雾里前行，虽然方向对，但是路走得有点磕磕绊绊。
不过也别灰心，只要努力，就能进步。
5. D级就有点糟糕啦，就像唱歌跑调跑得没边儿的人。
有个小伙伴跟我说他之前考四级口语就得了D级，他当时紧张得不行，说话结结巴巴，很多单词都发音错了，表达也很混乱。
在这个等级里，就像是一艘在暴风雨里迷失方向的小船，到处乱撞。
不过这也不是世界末日，下次再考就有经验啦。
6. 咱再来说说这A、B、C、D每个等级具体的评判标准哈。
A级呢，就像一个精心打磨的钻石，各个方面都闪闪发光。
语音语调纯正得就像英国皇室成员说话一样，表达超级流畅，用词那叫一个高级。
比如说，在描述一个场景的时候，能像诗人写诗一样，用各种美妙的词汇把场景描绘得栩栩如生。
7. B级在语音语调上就没有A级那么完美，有点像有点小瑕疵的美玉。

Mankind tendsto conquer and control the nature. They want to get a sense ofaccomplishment, but more often than not, they find it’s a so difficult task. Inthe face of nature, human being sometimes seems so tiny and so helpless.2.How should we cope with nature? Can we disregard the laws of nature?⏹First we should realize that the nature is more mighty than mankind canconquer. We should never disregard the laws of nature, otherwise it will takerevenge on us. Instead, we should try our best to know more about nature andfind more ways to deal with the disasters brought by nature. We shouldregard nature as our friends and try to live in harmony with it.3.What do you think war will bring to human being and nature?⏹War will bring heavy loss to people.

Sometimes, a war might be launched directly because of the naturalresources, such as oil.5.What’s your opinion about the relations between peace and war?⏹War and peace always exist side by side. As long as there are countries andhuman beings, there will be wars of various kinds. War can be categorizedinto 2 types: destructive wars (aggressive wars) and wars of justice(defensive wars). Aggressive war will certainly bring great disasters to theworld people. It threatens the world peace. At this time, we should launchwar of justice to protect the people and give the peace back to the people.Peace is what the war of justice fights for.6.What do you think are the reasons for a war?⏹Political reasons: World War I and II, Civil War in many countries, Warbetween Iraq and Iran, Vietnam War…⏹Religious reasons: War between Palestine and Israel…⏹Territory reasons: War in Malvinas Islands (between Britain and Argentina),War in Cashmere(between India and Pakistan)…⏹Energy reasons: Iraq War…⏹Other reasons: for beautiful woman (Trojan War)…Part II Discussion1.
