2017年12月大學英語四級衝刺模擬題 第四套(含答案)

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

Television is one of today's most powerful and widespread means of mass communication. It directly influences our lives on both a short and long term basis; it brings worldwide situations into our homes; it affords extensive opportunities for acquiring higher education; and it performs these tasks in a convenient yet effective manner. We are all aware of the popularly accepted applications of television, particularly those relative to entertainment and news broadcasting.

Television, however, has also been a vital link in unmanned deep space exploration (such as the Voyager Ⅰ and Ⅱ missions), in providing visions from hazardous areas (such as proximity to radioactive materials or environments) in underwater research, in viewing storms moving across a metropolitan area (the camera being placed in a weather protective enclosure near the top of a tower), etc..The earth's weather satellites also use television cameras for viewing cloud cover and movements from 20,000 miles in space. Infrared filters are used for night views, and several systems include a spinning mirror arrangement to permit wide area views from the camera. Realizing the unlimited applications for today's television, one may thus logically ponder the true benefits of confining most of our video activities to the mass entertainment field.

Conventional television broadcasting within the United States centers around free enterprise and public ownership. This requires funding by commercial sponsors,and thus functions in a revenue producing business manner. Television in USSR subjected areas, conversely, is a governmentowned and maintained arrangement. While such arrangements eliminate the need for commercial sponsorship, it also has the possibility of limiting the type of programs available to viewers (a number of purely entertainment programs similar to the classic “Bewitched”, however, have been seen on these government controlled networks. All isn't as gray and dismal as the uninformed might unnecessarily visualize).

A highly modified form of television called Slow Scan TV is presently being used by many Amateur Radio operators to provide direct visual communications with almost any area of the world . This unique visual mode recently allowed people on the tiny South Pacific country of Pitcairn Island to view, for the first time in their lives, distant areas and people of the world. The chief radio Amateur and communications officer of Pitcairn, incidentally, is the legendary Tom Christian great, great grandson of Tom Christian of “Mutiny on the Bounty” fame. Radio Amateurs in many lands worked together for several months establishing visual capabilities for Pitcairners. The results have proven spectacular, yet the visual capabilities have only been used for health education, or welfare purposes.

Commercial TV is still unknown to natives of that tiny country. Numerous other forms of television and visual communication have also been used on a semi restricted basis. This indicates the many untapped areas of video and television which may soon be exploited on a more widespread basis. The old cliché of a picture being worth a thousand words truly has merit.

21.According to the passage, applications of television are easily accepted in ____.

A) metropolitan area

B) deep space exploration

C) programs about entertainment and news

D) remote areas

22.Which of the following statements is true in the eyes of the writer?

A) Applications of television are beneficial to big cities.

B) Applications of television are believed to be good activities.

C) Applications of television are restricted to television systems.

D) Applications of television do benefit to the mass entertainment field.

23.According to the passage television in USSR ____.

A) is limited to a revenue producing business manner

B) requires funding by commercial sponsors

C) puts away the need of commercial aid

D) is badly in need of commercial help

24.In the passage, the author tries to tell us purely entertainment programs similar to the classic “Bewitched” ____ .

A) are as good as those in the U.S.

B) have been seen on many government controlled networks

C) are as gray and dismal as the uninformed might unnecessarily visualize

D) are not as gloomy as the uninformed might

25.The author's attitude toward television programs is ____ .

A) positive B) indifferent

C) critical D) dangerous

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:

I came across an old country guide the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in each village in my part of the country, and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one's own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.

Nowadays a superficial traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. Admittedly there has been a contraction of village commerce, but its vigour is still remarkable.

Our local grocer's shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queueing up(anonymously) at a supermarket. And the proprietor knows well that personal service has a substantial cash value.

His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old age pensioner who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing, the more affluent customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to knit at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced figure, instantly obtains it from them.

The village gains from this sort of enterprise, of course. But I also find it satisfactory because a village shop offers one of the few ways in which a modest individualist can still get along in the world without attaching himself to the big battalions of industry or commerce. Most of the village shopkeepers I know, at any rate, are decidedly individualist in their ways. For example, our shoemaker is a formidable figure: a thick set, irritable man whom children treat with marked respect, knowing that an ill judged word can provoke an angry eruption at any time. He stares with smouldering contempt at the pairs of cheap, mass produced shoes taken to him for repair: has it come to this, he seems to be saying, that he, a craftsman, should have to waste his skills upon such trash? But we all know he will in fact do excellent work upon them. And he makes beautiful shoes for those who can afford such luxury.

26.The writer considered the old country guide interesting because he found in it ____ .

A) the names of so many of the shops in the village around

B) the many people selling to, and doing jobs for, residents in local villages at the time it appeared

C) the variety of shops and services available in Victorian days in Britain

D) information about all the jobs there were in his own and surrounding villages at the time it appeared

      27.The local grocer's shop is expanding even though ____ .

A) women spend a lot of their time there just gossiping

B) town shops are larger and rather cheaper

C) people like to shop where they are less well known

D) people get personal service in his shop

28.The writer implies that one disadvantage of town shops is that ____.

A) their prices are higher

B) people cannot telephone them

C) their staff may take less trouble to satisfy customers

D) one has to queue up in them

29.The writer appreciates the village shop because ____.

A) he welcomes competition with organized business

B) he likes the idea that a humble person can be successful

C) this is a case of individual success in a world of increasing

D) he welcomes an example of private enterprise surviving in an age of giant companies

30.What is the village shoemaker's reaction to mass produced shoes?

A) He considers they are not worth the effort of mending properly.

B) He is angry with the customers for bringing in such rubbish.

C) He despises their quality.

D) He feels exasperated because people waste their money on inferior shoes.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

Black Americans have served with honor in every American military action, though this fact is often omitted in history books. Even though black men almost had to beg to be allowed to serve in the Revolutionary War, they went on to serve well. Two blackmen, Oliver Cromwell and Prince Whipple, were with Washington when he crossed the Delaware on Christmas Day, 1776, to attack the British at Trenton. A black man named Estabrook captured the Royal Army's general Prescott Newport, and Peter Salem, a black, killed Major Pitcairn as he was savoring his expected victory at Bunker Hill.

Even though they were forced to serve in separated units, black soldiers distinguished themselves in combat. This was despite the fact that whites had long believed that blacks could neither command nor use firearms. In 1863, William Carney of the Massachusetts Colored Infantry received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his role in battles with the Plains Indians. Isaiah Dorman, Coster's black scout, served and died at the Little Big Horn in 1876.Henry Flipper was the first black graduate of West Point in 1877.

In World War Ⅰ, 40,000 black American combat soldiers served with the French command. Neither U.S. nor British commanders would use these men. But Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts, soldiers in the 369th Infantry's black “Hellfighters” were still the first Americans to win the Croix de Guerre, France's top military award.

During World War Ⅱ over 600,000 black men and women served in the armed forces, including some 400,000 who served overseas. Dorie Miller, a black mess attendant in navy, was one of our first heroes in this war. At Pearl Harbor during the Japanese sneak attack, he manned a machine gun and shot down four planes. The black fighter pilots of Benjamin Davis, Jr. distinguished themselves throughout the war. They served most courageously during the Italian campaign. During the war in Vietnam, mainly because of civil rights pressures in America but also owing to the fine record of black military units, all American forces were fully integrated. Once again blacks played vital roles. And 13.2 percent of all war deaths were of blacks, even though blacks constitute only 11 percent of all Americans. Black American soldiers continue to serve their land well.

31.The main idea of this passage is that ____ .

A) black Americans made contributions in the Revolutionary War

B) black Americans have admirably served their country in at least five wars

C) black Americans suffered a larger portion of war deaths in Vietnam than did any other minorities

D) black Americans served under the French command in World War Ⅰ

     32.Benjamin Davis, Jr. was ____ .

A) one of black fighter pilots during World War Ⅰ

B) commander of a group of black fighter pilots during World War Ⅱ

C) one of the soldiers who crossed the Delaware with Washington in 1776

D) a scout for Coster and died at the Little Big Horn

33.The passage implies that ____ .

A) black Americans were forced to fight in World War Ⅰ

B) black Americans served in the military for a good life

C) Americans have been ignorant of the fact that blacks have played in America's military history

D) black Americans went into war because of their courage

34.The meaning of the word “savoring” is ____ .

A) demanding B) commanding

C) assuring D) enjoying

35.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A) Black Americans played an important role in the wars in America.

B) None of the white fight pilots joined World War Ⅱ.

C) The portion of deaths of blacks is larger than that of the whites.

D) All the statements are true.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

The island of Great Britain being small(compared with the size of Australia),the natural place for holiday relaxation and enjoyment is its extensive coastline, above all its southern and eastern coasts, though Blackpool, which is probably the best known and most crowded seaside town, and the favorite resort of the mass population of industrial Lancashire, is on the north west coast. Distant and little inhabited areas like Northern Scotland, are too remote for the development of large seaside resorts.

For most children, going to the seaside suggests a week or fortnight of freedom on the beach, ideally a sandy one providing ample opportunity for the construction of sandcastles, fishing in pools for stranded shrimps, paddling in shallow water or swimming in deep. Children's entertainments may include the traditional knockabout puppet show “Punch and Judy”, donkey rides, paddleboats in artificialponds, mini golf and the swings and roundabouts in local fairgrounds. Their parents spend sunny days swimming in the sea and sunbathing on the beach. Not that the British sun can be relied on and the depressing sight of families wandering round the town in mackintoshes and under umbrellas is only too common. However there are always the shops with their tourist souvenirs, plenty of cafes and, if the worst comes to the worst, the cinema to offer a refuge. The average family is unlikely to seek accommodation in a hotel as they can stay more cheaply in one of the many boarding houses. These are usually three or four storeyed Victorian buildings, whose owners spend the summer season letting rooms to a number of couples or families and providing three cooked meals a day at what they describe as a reasonable price, with the hope that in this way they will add enough to their savings to see the winter through. Otherwise there are the caravan and camping sites for those who prefer self catering.

Nowadays, even when an increasing number of people fly off to Mediterrane an resorts where a well developed suntan can be assured, or explore in comfort Swiss lakes and mountains or romantic Italian or Spanish cities, the British seaside is still the main attraction for families, especially those with younger children. As they queue for boat trips, cups of tea or ice cream under grey skies and in drizzling rain, the parents are reliving their own childhood when time seemed endless, their own sandcastle the most splendid on the beach, the sea always blue and friendly and the sun always hot.

36.A reason suggested in the first paragraph for the appeal of the British seaside is that ____ .

A) it is an ideal place for children

B) most holiday resorts are in the warmer south and east

C) it is within easy reach

D) a large number of people enjoy going there

      37.Children enjoy the seaside because ____ .

A) they can be sure to play on a sandy beach

B) they are allowed to do anything they like

C) it provides a period of enjoyable escape from school routine

D) there are a variety of enjoyable ways of spending time there

38.It is suggested that as a form of holiday entertainment the cinema ____.

A) is visited only if there is nothing better to do

B) is the only place there is to go to in bad weather

C) has nothing whatever to recommend it

D) is the best place there is to go to in bad weather

39.What reason is suggested for running a boarding house?

A) The owners earn their living by doing this.

B) This helps to pay for the upkeep of a large house.

C) The resulting supplementary income will ensure a living for several months.

D) The money they make will keep them through the winter.

40.What attraction has the British seaside got for many parents in comparis on with European resorts?

A) They can take their families with them in their own country.

B) There are more ways of enjoying themselves there.

C) It takes them less time to get there.

D) They can relive happy memories.

短文大意

作者偶而發現了一本陳舊的鄉下導遊手冊,從這本書中悟出了一系列的道理,不論在遙遠、偏避的鄉村小店,還是在大都市的豪華的超級商場只要服務到家,物美價廉,生意就會興旺發達,反之就會蕭條,逐漸走下坡路。

  26. 答 案B。【參考譯文】作者認爲這本陳舊的鄉下導遊手冊有意思是因爲他發現……【試題分析】考察學生對上下文的理解能力。【詳細解答】作者認爲這本陳舊的鄉下 導遊手冊有意思是因爲他發現:這本書出現的那個時期,有許多商人向當地村民賣東西,給村裏人做工及向來訪者兜售古玩。因此, B) 正確回答了本題要回答的問題。此答 案可在短文的第二段中找到:Nowadays a superficial traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visitors. (當今,在英格蘭鄉下即使一個膚淺的旅遊者也會得出結論:如今生意仍很興隆的鄉村商人們要麼向村民們兜售冷凍食品,要麼向來訪者兜售古玩。 )作者進一步得出結論: Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. Admittedly there has been a contraction of village commerce, but its vigour is still remarkable. (然而,這只是一種假象,有一種普遍看法,雖然這種鄉村商業已收減,但其活力仍然顯而易見。 ) 從文中可以看出,如今的鄉村貿易,雖然規模減小了,但仍很興旺。可想而知,在這本導遊手冊出現的那個時期,商業該是多麼興旺! A) 村子周圍許多商店的名字。文章中並沒提到許多商店的名字,而且作者對此也不感興趣。 C) 在英國維多利亞時期的各種商店和服務。作者所感興趣的是現在的當地商店的各種服務,而不是維多利亞時期的。D) 這本書出現時期,有關他本村和周圍村子裏勞務信息。以上三項選擇都不能正確回答本題主旨,故均不能入選。

27. 答 案B。【參考譯文】當地的雜貨店儘管有……,但實際上在擴大。【試題分析】考學生的對關鍵詞語的理解能力,只要有一定的詞彙量,就不難從字行裏找到答 案。【詳細解答】 B) 項選擇可在文章的第三段開頭找到:Our local grocer's shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town.(例如,我們這裏的雜貨店儘管有來自附近城鎮裏超級商店的競爭,但實際上正在擴大。這種競爭主要是指超級商場的優勢,商店大,貨物便宜)。A) 婦女們花大量時間在那裏聊天。C) 人們喜歡到不被人們注意的地方買東西。D) 人們可以在他的店裏得到個人服務。

28. 答 案C。【參考譯文】作者暗示城鎮商店的不足之處是……【試題分析】本題考察一般的閱讀能力,需從字行裏找答 案。【詳細解答】根據題意,作者暗示城鎮商店不足之處是: C) 其商店僱員沒下功夫來滿足顧客的需要。相反鄉村商店對顧客有求必應,服務到家,其店員不辭勞苦,犧牲中午吃飯時間送貨上門,這種情況和城市超級商店的服務形成鮮明對照,故選 C) 比較  恰當。 A) 他們的價格較高。事實上,他們的價格不是較高,而是較低。故不能入選。B) 人們不能和他們通話。事實上非如此。大商店設施齊全,價格便宜,只是服務趕不上鄉村商店而已;故不符合本題要求。 D) 人們必須在那裏排長隊;這也不是主要理由,原因是沒有良好的服務。

29. 答 案B。【參考譯文】作者欣賞鄉村商店的原因是……【試題分析】本題考察學生對整篇文章的理解能力。【詳細解答】作者欣賞鄉村商店的原因是: B) 他欣賞那種地位低下的人獲得成功的想法。選擇此項要從整篇課文的主題入手。文章中作者贊成什麼,欣賞什麼是顯而易見的。他之所以對這本導遊手冊感興趣,就是因爲他發現農村中普通商店,普通老百姓那種孜孜不倦的“敬業”精神和成功範例。 A) 他歡迎同有組織的商店進行競爭。C) 這是一個在發展中的世界裏個人成功的例子。 D) 他欣賞這是一個從大公司時代生存下來的私人企業樣板。 A), C)和 D) 都不能反映作者欣賞農村商店的理由,故不能入選。

30. 答 案C。【參考譯文】鄉村鞋匠對大批生產的鞋子的反應是什麼 ?【試題分析】本題考察學生對某一段文字的全面理解能力。【詳細解答】 C) 項回答了這個問題。他的反應是:瞧不起它們的質量。鞋匠的這種反應表現在文章的最後一段: He stares with smouldering contempt at the pairs of cheap,massproduced shoes taken to him for repair: has it come to this, he seems to be saying, that he, a craftsman, should have to waste his skills upon such trash? (他盯着那雙拿到他跟前、批量生產而又便宜的鞋子,眼中流露出掩飾不住的輕蔑。他似乎在說,就這麼一雙破爛貨還需要像他這樣的手藝人勞神費力去修補嗎?由 此可以看出他是多麼地瞧不起這種鞋子。 A) 他認爲這種鞋不值得好好修補。雖然他瞧不起其質量,但他還是認認真真地進行修補。文章的最後一句就說明了這個問題。 B) 他對拿這種質量很差的鞋子讓他修補的顧客感到惱火。事實上是,他雖然瞧不起這種質量很差的鞋子的質量,但對工作還是非常認真負責的,對顧客並沒有發火或有不禮貌之舉。 D) 他感到惱火是因爲顧客們在這些質量很差的鞋子上花費了錢財。鞋匠做鞋和補鞋,其目的之一是爲了生計,爲了賺錢,沒有必要爲顧客在質量差的鞋子上花錢而生氣,所以無論從語言文字上或邏輯上,他沒有、也沒必要爲此生氣。

本文主要反映了美國黑人幾乎參加了在美國曆史上所有戰爭的作戰。他們令人欽佩地至少在五次大戰爭中服過役。他們在各次戰爭中傷亡的比例是白人的 數十倍,然而,美國人對黑人在美國軍事歷史上所起的作用卻一無所知,在美國的歷史書上黑人的榮譽與地位往往被“忽略”掉,從中不難看出美國的種族歧視的歷 史淵源和根深蒂固。

    31. 答 案B。【參考譯文】本篇短文的主題思想是……【試題分析】本題考察學生的綜合概括能力。【詳細解答】本篇短文的主題思想是,美國黑人令人欽佩地至少在五次 戰爭中服過役。和其它三項相比較, B) 項所反映的情況比較全面客觀。在文章中所談到的五次戰爭中黑人都表現出色,這是本文所敘述的主要內容。 A) 美國黑人在革命戰爭中所做出  的貢獻。這一項不能全面反映黑人在各個戰爭中所做的貢獻,所以也就不足以構成本文主題。 C) 美國黑人在越戰中傷亡比例大於其它美國少數民族。文章中並未談及其它美國少數民族的傷亡情況。在所有戰爭中黑人的傷亡比例爲 13. 2%,並不光指越戰的傷亡比例。D) 美國黑人在第一次世界大戰時曾服役於法國人的麾下。此項反映的只是黑人蔘戰情況的一部分,不能反映他們參戰的全貌,因此也構不成主題。

32. 答 案B。【參考譯文】 Jr.本傑明?戴維是……【試題分析】本題考察學生對某一段文字的理解能力,如何從字裏行間找答案。【詳細解答】 A) Benjamin Davis, Jr.在第一次世界大戰中是黑人戰鬥飛行員之一,在文章的第四段中有這樣一個句子: The black fighter pilots of Benjamin Davis, Jr. distinguished themselves throughout the war. (Jr. 本傑明?戴維的黑人戰鬥飛行員在整個戰爭中表現出色。)黑人戰鬥飛行員是在本傑明的指揮下,他是指揮員而並不是戰鬥員。他所指揮的部隊是在二戰中參戰,而 不是在一戰。時間上的差異是最重要的區別,故A) 不能入選。B) 本傑明在二戰期間指揮一支黑人戰鬥飛行隊伍,正符合本題題意。C) 1776年隨同華盛頓穿過特拉華河的士兵之一。1776年隨同華盛頓穿過特拉華河的是另外兩名黑人,一個是 Oliver Cromwell, 另一個是Prince Whipple。時間上,一個是1776年,另一個是二次世界大戰,時間相差懸殊。D) Coster 的偵察兵,在Little Big Horn 犧牲。在Little Big Horn 犧牲的是Isia Dorman, 而不是本傑明。

33. 答 案C。【參考譯文】本文的含義是……【試題分析】本題考察學生的綜合分析能力。【詳細解答】只有通過全面理解和分析全文才能得出本文作者所暗指的是什麼。 A) 美國黑人被迫參加一次大戰。這種說法不全面,應該排除。B) 美國黑人蔘軍是爲了過好生活。文章中沒有這樣的描述,也沒有作者的暗指,也應排除。 C) 美國人對黑人在美國軍事歷史上所起的作用這一事實一無所知。作者在文章中列舉了大量的美國黑人在各個歷史時期參戰的事實和例子,以說明黑人在戰爭中所起的作用,其目的就在於讓美國人民瞭解這一歷史事實,故本題爲正確答案。 D) 美國黑人蔘戰是因爲他們的勇氣。這種說法帶有片面性,不是作者的本意,故不能入選。

34. 答 案D。【參考譯文】單詞 savoring的意思是……【試題分析】本題考察學生的詞彙量和辨析能力。【詳細解答】 A) demanding 要求、需要;B) commanding 指揮、控制;C) assuring 確信、放心;D) enjoy 享受…的樂趣、欣賞、喜歡,和savoring 意義近似,故可入選。

35. 答 案B。【參考譯文】以下幾種說法哪一種不真實 ?【試題分析】本題考察推理和判斷能力。【詳細解答】本題的要求是回答下面幾種說法中哪一種不對。 A) 美國黑人在美國各次戰爭中起了重要的作用。這一說法符合事實,並在文章中多有描述,故不在否定之列。 B) 沒有一個白人戰鬥飛行員參加過第二次世界大戰,這種說法不符合歷史事實, 美國的飛行員包括黑人,但主要的還是白人。所以 B) 爲本題最佳選擇。C) 黑人的傷亡比例要比白人的傷亡比例高;這也是事實。從文章的這句話裏可以看出: And 13. 2 percent of all war deaths were of black, even though blacks constitute only 11 percent of all Americans. (雖然黑人僅佔美國人口的11%,但是所有戰爭中的13. 2%的犧牲者是黑人。)由此可見黑人的傷亡比例遠高於白人。因此不能入選。D) 所有這些說法都正確;顯然不合題意,應該排除。

短文大意

本文以生動誘人的筆調描述了大不列顛海濱的秀麗風光。和大自己數倍的澳大利亞相比,其面積實在太小,但這裏卻是吸引人們旅遊觀光,度假休閒的好 地方。在這裏不僅孩子們可以盡情嬉戲,如壘沙堡,盪船,騎小毛驢,看木偶戲,在微型高爾夫球場上打球等,而且大人們也可以重溫幸福的童年。

36. 答 案C。【參考譯文】第一段文章裏提出的英國海濱誘人的原因是……【試題分析】考察學生對某段文章的理解能力,如何從字裏行間找答 案。【詳細解答】在文章的第一段裏,作者陳述了英國海濱吸引人的理由是人們很容易到達那裏,和澳大利亞相比,大不列顛島很小,這是主要原因,故選 C)。B)節假日休閒勝地大多都在溫暖的南方和東方,在第一段裏沒有提到,提到的是北蘇格蘭人煙稀少的邊遠地區太偏僻,不易開發爲大的海濱休閒勝地,所以 B)項不能入選。D)許多人喜歡到那裏去,第一段裏也沒談及到此事,另外,沒有說出人們喜歡去那裏的理由和原因,故也不能入選。

37. 答 案D。【參考譯文】孩子們喜歡海濱是因爲……【試題分析】本題考察學生的推理和總結能力。【詳細解答】孩子喜歡去海邊是因爲: D)那裏有各種各樣的度假休閒的開心方式;如… ideally a sandy one providing ample opportunity for the construction of sandcastles, fishing in pools for stranded shrimps, paddling in shallow water or swimming in deep.(孩子們的娛樂還包括觀看木偶戲,騎小毛驢,在人工湖裏盪船,在微型高爾夫球場打高爾夫球等 );故選D)最爲恰當。其它三項都不構成孩子們喜歡海濱的主要理由,故不在入選之列。

     38. 答 案A。【參考譯文】電影院作爲一種娛樂場所在這裏卻是……【試題分析】考察學生對作者意圖的理解。【詳細解答】人們光顧電影院只是在沒有任何別的更好的娛 樂休閒方式的情況下才去那裏。 A)項選擇可在短文的第二段中的最後一句裏找到:if the worst comes to the worst, the cinema to offer a refuge.(在最糟的情況下,電影院便可以提供“避難”所 )。B)、C)和D)都不符合本題題意,故都在排除之列。

40. 答 案D。【參考譯文】和歐洲度假勝地相比,吸引家長們去英國海濱的誘人之處是什麼 ?【試題分析】考察學生的對某一段文章的理解能力。【詳細解答】所提問題是:和歐洲的度假勝地相比,吸引家長們去英國海濱的誘人之處是什麼 ?A)他們可在本國帶自己的家人去那裏;B)那裏有能夠讓他們開心的各種活動; C)去那裏所花時間要少。根據文章最後一段的最後一句不難看出吸引家長們去那裏  的原因是 D)他們可以重溫幸福的回憶(即童年的回憶)。因此選D)最爲恰當。

Part Ⅲ

41. 答 案A。【參考譯文】一般來說他非常沉默寡言,但有時說到自己便侃侃而談。【試題分析】本題爲搭配辨析題,與語法正誤無關,主要是考察形容詞與系動詞搭配是否符合整句的邏輯關係。【詳細解答】 reserved沉默寡言的。B)serious嚴肅的;認真的;用在這裏,語法是對的,但語義上不能和 talks freely about himself形成反差。C)sociable好交際的;友善的;好交際和侃侃而談不能形成對照。D)peaceful和平的;安靜的;反義詞是 violent和noisy,也不能和talks freely形成反差。所以只有A)reserved符合題意。

     48. 答 案D。【參考譯文】在這種天氣裏飛行,飛行員一定是……【試題分析】本題爲形近詞辨析題。 B、C、D形體類似,其意義完全不同。A爲混淆項。【詳細解答】 insane(=mad, senseless)瘋狂的;不理智的。題意:在這種天氣裏飛行,飛行員一定是發瘋了。 A)clever聰明,明智的;如果飛行員聰明或理智的話就不會在這種惡劣的天氣裏飛行。B)sensuous感官方面的;感覺上的;在意思上有大的區別,更不適用。C)sane指心理健全的,神態清楚的,和insane意義相反。

61. 答 案D。【參考譯文】他兒子期待開辦一個商店。【試題分析】本題爲搭配辨析題,主要考察語義上的用法。【詳細解答】 set up(=cause to start in business or in some other activity)開辦;創立;建立。題意:他兒子期待開一個商店。A)reside居住;B)construct建造; construct a reservoir建造一座水庫;創立(學說等)。C)eliminate除去,刪去。同義詞有:banish, abolish, eradicate, erase, exterminate, get rid of, do away with。根據題意A)、B)和C)均不合適。

65. 答 案D。【參考譯文】我們必須非常準確地在同一時間出發,所以我們對了對手錶。【試題分析】本題爲詞尾形近詞用法辨析題。 A項爲陪襯選擇,其它詞結尾近似。【詳細解答】 synchronized(使)在時間上一致。A)transfix刺穿;B)stabilize使安定;使鞏固;C)temporize拖延,敷衍。

67. 答 案C。【參考譯文】星期五之前你一定報名參加這次考試,所以要儘快把錢帶到辦公室來。【試題分析】本題近義詞辨析題。在語法上無正誤關係,但在語義和邏輯上有較大區別。【詳細解答】 enter for報名參加(比賽或考試等)。參加考試的表達有:take the examination或sit for the examination。A)pass及格,過關,pass the examination是考試及格的意思,所以A)、B)和D)均不是正確答 案。

68. 答 案D。【參考譯文】發言人說大多數人都認爲政府的經濟政策是成功的。【試題分析】本題爲詞義搭配辨析題,主要考察動詞和副詞的搭配及用法。【詳細解答】 look on(=regard as)。A)look out朝外看;察看,慎重考慮; B)look up向上看;尊敬;仰望;C)look ahead(=to try to see a long way in front of one)儘量向(某人的)前方看。look和介詞或副詞構成動詞短語,有不同的意義和用法。look on除了有regard as的意義之外,還有to watch instead of doing sth.(袖手旁觀)之意。

69. 答 案C。【參考譯文】人們覺得他缺乏那種把所承擔的困難任務進行到底的精神。【試題分析】本題爲形近詞用法辨析題, A和C爲一類,B和D爲一類。【詳細解答】 commitment承擔的責任和義務;承諾(複數)。A)engagement約束;保證;約會;約定。在事先約定做某事,或有約在先,可用此詞。 e.g. He has a speaking engagement for next week.(有人約他下星期去做報告。)用在本題不當。B)persuasion說服;說服的話;主張;見解。persuasion從persuade派生出來,意思是勸說(說服)某人做某事; e.g. the method of persuasion and education(說服教育的方法)。D)preservation保存;保管,用於對某些物品的儲藏或保管,也不合題義。

   70. 答 案D。【參考譯文】輪胎爆破後,傑克在駕駛班所學的規程使他渡過了難關。【試題分析】本題爲搭配辨析題,主要考察動詞和副詞的搭配及用法。【詳細解答】 carry…through(=to save by supporting sb. during trouble time)使(某人)渡過(困難、危險等)。A)carry away運走;拿走或搬走。B)carry forward發揚;發展;e.g. They carry forward the traditions of the past.(他們發揚以往的傳統。 ) C)carry off奪走;搶走。根據題意,D)是正確答 案。

Part Ⅳ

71. 【參考答 案】as後加上a。【詳細解答】某一家庭、某一組織或某一羣體的成員之一,應該是 as a member of…或者as one member of…,這裏應該加上一個不定冠詞a。

72. 【參考答 案】able改爲capable。【詳細解答】 (be) able to (do sth.)相當於can do sth.能夠做某事,表示能力; able to後跟to不定式,capable跟介詞of+名詞或動名詞表示“有…本領”。

73. 【參考答 案】it改爲them。【詳細解答】 them代表groups(複數形式)。如果group是單數,a group,用 it來代它,那就對了。

74. 【參考答 案】everything改爲anything。【詳細解答】注意 everything和anything的用法區別。everything的意思是“每件事;事事”,一般用在肯定句中。 anything的意思是“什麼事(物)”;“任何事(物)”,常用於疑問句、否定句、條件從句中,或與含有疑問、否定意義的詞連用。…is capable of anything except intelligent action and realistic thinking.意思是“它(crowd)任何事情都行就是沒有明智的行動和現實的思想”。

75. 【參考答 案】Assembling改爲Assembled。【詳細解答】 assembling現在分詞作狀語,常常表示正在進行着的動作,叫做伴隨狀態 (attending circumstances),說明動作正在發生。e.g. Laughing and singing they came into the classroom.他們說着笑着走進了教室。Laughing和singing的動作和動詞謂語的動作幾乎同時發生。assembled是過去分詞,表 示狀態,含有被動意味。Assembled in a crowd…相當於一個狀語從句:When they are assembled in a crowd,…因此,必須將Assembling改爲Assembled。

76. 【參考答 案】chose改爲choice。【詳細解答】這是一個名詞誤用的問題,只要認真觀察,就不難發現問題。

77. 【參考答 案】that改爲where。【詳細解答】把 that改爲where是因爲that在這裏起什麼作用不明確。它既不是關係代詞代替前面 的 point引導句子,也不是作to have的賓語(to have的賓語是any judgement)。where是關係副詞,引導一個定語從句修飾point。

78. 【參考答 案】for改爲to。【詳細解答】這是習慣用法問題。 to be subject to易受…的;常遭…的,所以要把for改爲to。

79. 【參考答 案】behave改爲behaves。【詳細解答】這是一個最普遍的動詞時態用法問題。只要細心檢查,就不難發現錯誤。

80. 【參考答 案】does改爲dose。【詳細解答】這是一個相形字區別的問題,記單詞不僅記其意,而且要記其形。

Part Ⅴ

Rechoice of Professions—A Social Problem

Nowadays more and more persons are out of work. They are called laid off personnel. They are now confronted with the difficulty of rechoice of professions. People may doubt why there are so many persons becoming unemployed. Will they be able to be employed again? How will they adapt themselves to the changed social environment? Is it necessary for them to alter their views of obtaining employment? To solve all these problems, we should help them have a clear understanding of the present situation, change their views of rechoice of professions, build up a firm confidence in obtaining employment again.

China's economy has grown rapidly in the past decades since the adoption of the policy of reforms and opening to the outside world. Investment from abroad has taken root in China's economy. Hightechnology has been applied in various fields and great changes have taken place in China's socialist economic structure. This is a law of economic development.
