2006年12月英語四級模擬試題(含答案及詳細(xì)解析)

KEY

Part I

Global Warming

In these times, people all over the world are starting to learn the influence that global warming has on people everywhere. it is a sad truth that this issue is affecting not only merely the weather, but not everyday lives as well.

These are numerous reasons to explain this; here I would like to explore some of the most important ones. The development of modern industry must be the biggest reason. Carbon dioxide exerted from some factories is believed to be contributing to the accelerated warming our atmosphere. In addition, the way that we are consuming a greater and greater amount of energy in the process of our day-to-day lives is only exacerbating this problem.

Talking into consideration those factors discussed above, I believe there are at least two measures we can take: on one hand, the government should come up with more effective and stricter laws for the regulation of industrial emissions and byproducts. On the other hand, as individuals, we need to get into the habit of saving energy. With joint effort from every one of us, we can certainly hope for a lasting solution to this problem one day.

Part II

1.F.當(dāng)出現(xiàn)all這種過于絕對的詞語時,考生應(yīng)該引起注意。一般這樣的命題多數(shù)是不正確的。首段中有句話:“All spiders produce silk, but only some construct webs to catch their food”命題中all的說法過于絕對。

2.T.該命題是對原文第二段首句話的同義改寫。

3.F.原文中第二段首句中寫到,“of the 600+ spiders in Britain only 12 are strong enough to pierce the human skin”,因此并不是命題中說的當(dāng)它們刺進(jìn)人的皮膚會經(jīng)常殺死人。

4.F.原文中說,“Arachne became depressed after this and in the end she hung herself.”注意代詞this指代上面的句子,結(jié)合上一句一起理解,命題顯然是錯誤的。

5. NG.文章中只出現(xiàn)過一次Tim Tegenaria,所以該題很好定位,即最后一段的第二句?墒俏恼轮胁]有出現(xiàn)tarantula spiders。

6.T.該命題定位在最后一段倒數(shù)第三句話處。

7.NG.首先定位Money spiders出現(xiàn)的位置是文章的最后的兩句,可是并沒有提到它是最小的。

8.32000

該題由關(guān)鍵詞species of spider定位在第二段倒數(shù)第二句。

9.looking at their pales

該題定位在倒數(shù)第二段的首句。

10.the Goliath spider

掃讀全文的時候注意有最高級的地方。由此我們可以將該題定位在文章最后一段的首句。

11. M: I forgot to bring my pencil and paper to take notes with in class.

W: That’s all right. I have enough for both of us.

Q: What will the woman most probably do next?

12. W: When is Jason coming?

M: Well, he said he’d be here at seven-thirty, but if you know him, it will be at least eight o’clock.

Q: What do we know about Jason?

13. M: Are you ready to check out?

W: Yes. I’ll pay the bill and you’ll call the desk and have our baggage taken out to the taxi.

Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?

14. M: Remember, you promised to help me with my homework for English class.

W: But I want to watch this program first. It is almost over. Wait a moment, please.

Q: What does the woman mean?

15. M: I was terribly embarrassed when some of the audience got up and left in the middle of the performance.

W: Well, some people just can’t seem to appreciate real-life drama.

Q: What are they talking about?

16. W: Professor Hook was so strange today.

M: I noticed that too. He was talking so quietly and then not giving us any homework at all. Can you believe that?

Q: What can be inferred about Professor Hook?

17. M: This room is so crowded. I can hardly breathe and I can’t see anything.

W: I don’t understand why they didn’t have this show in a bigger place. Do you?

Q: What is the woman complaining about?

18. M: The newspaper says that it’ll be raining today. What do you think?

W: I don’t believe it. Look, the sun’s shining.

Passage one

W: Sit down please, Mr. Johnson.

M: Introduce you, ma’am

W: I have read your letter here. You seem to have done very well in school. Can you tell me something about your schoolwork?

M: As you can see, my strongest subjects were art subjects. My best subject was history, and my second best was geography. However, my favorite subject was math, and the results I got in the math paper were quite reasonable..

W: That’ s true. Now, can you tell me why you think these subjects will help you in this job?

M: Well, ms’ am, I understand that you manufacture computers, prepare software, and advise diets on how to use them. Is that right?

W: What’s right.

M: And I’ve been told that working with computers needs a logical mind rather than great skills in mathematics. That’ s especially true, I believe, when it comes to writing programs. So I think my results show that I have some ability in logic and in mathematics, as well.

W: So, you would like to write material for computers, would you?

M: Yes, ma’am. That’s what interests me most about computers, writing programs. But I think the computer industry itself is still expanding enormously. I’ m sure that career prospects in the industry would be very good.

W: I see. Well, thank you. I’ve enjoyed our talk. We’ll be writing to you.

M: 1lmdc you, ms’ am. Good-bye.

Q1: According to the conversation, Mr. Johnson is NOT very strong in which subject?

Q2: Mr. Johnson thinks what can help him a lot in the job?

Q3: What would Mr. Johnson like to work as?

Passage two

M: Well, Cynthia, our first semester at university is almost over. I can’t wait for the holidays.

W: Me, too, Edward! Why don’ t we go somewhere far away and forget about lectures and essays and all that hard work.

M: Sounds good to me. Now, how long will we have before we have to be back here on campus for the next semester?

W: We’ve got about six weeks, I think.

M: How about if we go to the coast? It would be great to do some swimming and surfing.

W: The coast would be good, but let’s look at our other options. There are the mountains. They’re nice and cool at this time of year. And we can do some bush-walking. There’s also the desert, which I really enjoyed last year.

M: What about going to Sydney? I’ve never been there and they say it’s a great city to visit. Lots of things to do there, I’ve heard.

W: I agree Sydney would be good but there are too many tourists there at this time of year. And I’d rather get away from buildings and cars. There are enough of those around here. I vote for mountains.

M: All right, then, let’s do that. Now we have to decide where we’re going to stay and how we’re going to get there.

Q1: Where did the woman go for holiday last year?

Q2: Who are the two speakers?

Q3: Why does the man vote for Sydney?

Q4: What will the two speakers probably do next?

Passage One

An elderly woman yesterday made a legal claim against a department store because it had wrongly accused her of stealing a Christmas card. Ms. Doss white, 72 years old, is claiming $3,000 damages from the store for wrongful arrest and false imprisonment. Ms. White visited the store while doing Christmas shopping, but did not buy anything. She was followed though the town by a store manager. He had been told that a customer saw her take a card and put it in her shopping bag. He stopped her at a bookstore as she was reading a book. Ms. White said, “This man, a total stranger, suddenly grasped my bag and asked if he could look in it.” She was taken back to the store and shut in a small room in full view of shopper for 20 minutes until the police arrived. At the police station she was body-searched and nothing was found. Her lawyer said the department store sent an insincere apology and they insisted that she may have been stealing. The hearing continues today.

Q1. What does the story tell us about the old woman?

Q2. What was said to have been stolen?

Q3. What happened to Ms. White after she was taken back to the store?

Q4. What was now the attitude of the department store in this legal case?

Passage Two

My friend, Vemon Davies kept birds. One day he phoned and told me he was going away for a week. He asked me to feed the birds for him and said that he would leave the key to his front door in my mailbox.

Unfortunately, I forgot all about the birds until the night before Vemon was going to return. What was worse, it was already dark when I arrived at his house. I soon found the key Vernon gave me could not unlock either the front door or the back door. I was getting desperate. I kept thinking of what Vemon would say when he came back.

I was just going to give up when I noticed that one bedroom window was slightly open. I found a barrel and pushed it under the window. As the barrel was very heavy, I made a lot of noise. But in the end, I managed to climb up and open the window.

I actually had one leg inside the bedroom when I suddenly realized that someone was shining a torch up at me. I looked down and saw a policeman and an old lady, one of Vemon’s neighbours. “What are you doing up there?” said the policeman. Feeling like a complete fool, I replied, “I was just going to feed Mr. Davies’s birds.”

Q1. Why couldn’t the man open the door?

Q2. Why did the man feel desperate?

Q3. Why did the man feel like a fool?

Passage Three

When Iraq troops blew up hundreds of Kuwaiti oil wells at the end of the Gulf War, Scientists feared environmental disaster. Would black powder in the smoke from the fires circle the globe and block out the sun?

Many said, “No way; rain would wash the black power from the atmosphere. But in America, air sampling balloons have detected high concentrations of particles similar to those collected in Kuwait that didn’t catch fire. It has formed huge lakes in the Kuwaiti desert. They trap insects and birds, and poison a variety of other desert animals and plants.

The only good news is that the oil lakes have not affected the underground water resources. So far, the oil has not been absorbed because of the hard sand just below the surface.

Nothing, however, stops the oil from evaporating. The resulting poisonous gases are choking nearby residents.

Officials are trying to organize a quick cleanup, but they are not sure how to do it. One possibility is to burn the oil. Get those black-powder detectors ready.

Q1. What were the scientists worried about soon after the Gulf War?

Q2. What was the good news for scientists?

Q3. What are the officials trying to do at the moment?

Section C

These days people who do manual work often receive far more money than people who work in offices. People who work in offices are frequently referred to as “white-collar workers” for the simple reason that they usually wear a collar and tie to go to work. Such is human nature, that a great many people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the privilege of becoming white-collar workers. This can give rise to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a dustman for the Ellesmere Corporation.

When he got married, Alf was too embarrassed to say anything to his wife about his job. He simply told her that he worked for the Corporation. Every morning, he left home dressed in a smart black suit. He then changed into overalls and spent the next eight hours as a dustman. Before returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf did this for over two years and his fellow dustman kept his secret. Alf’s wife has never discovered that she married a dustman and she never will for Alf has just found another job. He will soon be working in an office. He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well worth the loss of money. From now on, he will wear a suit all day and others will call him “Mr. Bloggs”, not “Alf”.

Part IV

Section B

Passage 1

文章導(dǎo)讀:許多人認(rèn)為數(shù)字化給落后的國家?guī)砹艘粋迅速發(fā)展的機(jī)會,而另一些人認(rèn)為數(shù)字化加大了富國和窮國之間的距離,使窮國更加落后。作者分析了窮國的情況,認(rèn)為窮國應(yīng)該在更加基礎(chǔ)的方面得到幫助,而不是迅速普及電腦等先進(jìn)設(shè)施。

57. B 從第二段我們可以看出,作者認(rèn)為,窮國的人民關(guān)心更加現(xiàn)實的東西,比如食物、醫(yī)療和安全保障。即使提供給他們許多先進(jìn)的數(shù)字設(shè)備,他們也會因為缺乏知識或沒有電力而不能用。所以與其提供這些,不如提供更加基礎(chǔ)的援助,所以選B。第一段最后一句話說,作者認(rèn)為只是數(shù)字技術(shù)使窮國變富是一個神話,所以A錯誤。作者只是從數(shù)字設(shè)備和基礎(chǔ)設(shè)備兩個方面比較,而不是籠統(tǒng)的說富國應(yīng)該幫助窮國變富,所以C錯,從第二段可以看出,作者說即使提供給世界上每個家庭一臺計算機(jī),也不會有太多作用,顯然問題不在于能不能負(fù)擔(dān)起計算機(jī),所以D錯。

58. A divide的意思是分離,隔開。digital divide 可譯成“數(shù)字鴻溝”,即數(shù)字化使世界的貧富差距越來越大。所以A正確。在沒有數(shù)字化之前,世界上就存在貧富分化。數(shù)字化的出現(xiàn)只是 使其差距更大,而不是產(chǎn)生的原因,所以B,C,D錯誤。

59. D 文章的大意是窮國更需要基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和幫助,而第二段作者通過舉例和論證說明了論點(diǎn),所以本題選D。第二段雖然說了,窮國的人民因為沒有文化而不能使用計算機(jī),但這不是全部的原因,所以A錯。答案B過于籠統(tǒng),只說窮人無法使用電腦,而文章說明了窮人不能使用電腦是有具體原因的,所以B錯。讓每個家庭都有一臺電腦是作者的一個假設(shè),用于說明窮人無法使用電腦的原因,而不是討論這個假設(shè)可不可能實現(xiàn),所以C錯。

60. C 文章的第二段第二句說明了窮國更多關(guān)注的是"food, health care and security." 所以選C。作者分析了數(shù)字化在現(xiàn)階段大多數(shù)窮國沒有太多好處,但是并沒有否定數(shù)字技術(shù)的作用,所以A錯誤。在第一段的最后一句,作者說在給他們電腦和網(wǎng)絡(luò)等高級設(shè)備之前,應(yīng)該先晉級基礎(chǔ)設(shè)備。在這里移動電話只是基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的一個例子,并不是說一定要先擁有移動電話才能用電腦,所以答案D錯。

61. B 本題用排除法:移動電話只是一個例子來說明更加基礎(chǔ)的設(shè)備,所以答案A錯誤。建造鄉(xiāng)村電腦中心的好處與文章說明的問題無關(guān),所以答案C錯誤。解決糧食、健康、安全保障的問題范圍過于寬廣與本文主旨無關(guān),所以答案D錯,最后得出答案為B。

Passage 2

文章導(dǎo)讀:太空是個充滿了神秘的地方,同時也藏著危險。其中來自外太空的輻射尤為恐怖,但是,看完這篇文章,你會相信聰明的人總會找到一些解決辦法的。

62. A 問題問的是為什么大氣層對人類是至關(guān)重要的。文章的第四句說到了大氣層屏蔽了大量的外來射線。

63. B A,C,D選項內(nèi)容在文章中均沒有明確肯定,只有B對應(yīng)了原文的第二段的第四句話---問題在于很難發(fā)現(xiàn)輻射對人的損傷,當(dāng)事人當(dāng)時可能感覺良好,但是他的遺傳細(xì)胞可能受到損傷,將會影響到他的孩子,甚至后代。

64. D 從文章中我們得知,到現(xiàn)在為止還沒有報告顯示阿波羅號受到輻射損害,所以A,B,C選項均與文章意思相悖,只有D相對正確。

65. D 該題對應(yīng)了原文的最后一段。文章說雖然到現(xiàn)在為止還沒有報告顯示阿波羅號受到輻射損害,但畢竟它登月的時間短。人類能否長時間接受輻射照射還是個未知數(shù)。防輻射的藥雖然已經(jīng)研制出來,但只能削減輻射對人類的損害,還談不上根治。所以說防太空輻射不是容易的事情。

66. D 此文主要是談輻射的危害大以及防輻射的一些措施。D最準(zhǔn)確。

Part V

67. A

【解析】just在此為副詞,意為“剛剛”,做狀語。此句意為“一個事件剛剛發(fā)生,街上就有報紙報道詳情了。說明報紙對新聞的反應(yīng)之快。

68. A

【解析】to give和giving都合乎語法,但giving強(qiáng)調(diào)的是正在發(fā)生的動作,而此處重點(diǎn)表達(dá)的是“反應(yīng)快”,不是正在做什么。

69. A

【解析】消息,信息要靠收集。

70. D

【解析】后面的不定式短語表示目的。

71. C

【解析】提供信息的目的是為了讓他人知道,所以選C。

72. B

【解析】other意為“其他的”。此句意為:無線電,電報,電視,及其它發(fā)明,成為報紙的競爭對手。

73. A

【解析】根據(jù)句中的merely及其后所述內(nèi)容,應(yīng)選however,表轉(zhuǎn)折。

74. D

【解析】使用更新,更快的通訊工具,目的是提高速度。

75. C

【解析】報紙是印出來的,先印后看(讀)。

76. D

【解析】keep sb.+過去分詞是一種復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu),sb.與過去分詞為被動關(guān)系,意為保持這種關(guān)系的繼續(xù)。此句的意思是:報紙不斷地為讀者提供新聞信息。

77. C

【解析】關(guān)于politics之類的嚴(yán)肅話題,只能選educate。

78. B

【解析】此句意為:報紙通過廣告影響讀者在經(jīng)濟(jì)生活中的選擇。

79. B

【解析】大多數(shù)報紙依靠廣告收入來維持生存,此現(xiàn)象人人皆知。

80. C

【解析】報紙的售價之低,不足以抵付成本的一小部分。符合上下文關(guān)于廣告收入的說法。

81. A

【解析】收入來源應(yīng)該用source。因為source指河流,泉水的發(fā)源地;常指抽象事物的根源或來源以及資料,信息的出處或來源。origin起源,起因。指事物后來發(fā)生,發(fā)展變化的最初起點(diǎn),或指人的出身和血統(tǒng)。

82. D

【解析】succeed in為固定短語。此句意為:廣告業(yè)務(wù)的成功,取決于報紙在客戶(要打廣告的人)心中的價值。

83. C

【解析】根據(jù)上下文,此處應(yīng)該用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài),此句意為:報紙在客戶心中的價值,是靠發(fā)行量衡量的。

84. C

【解析】該句意為:發(fā)行量的大小,很大程度上取決于發(fā)行部門的工作及報紙所提供的服務(wù)功能和娛樂功能。

85. B

【解析】offered作services和entertainment的定語。

86. D

【解析】information后面接介詞about,表示“關(guān)于”。
