The Polluted Environment
Our environment is being polluted faster than nature and man's present efforts can prevent it. / Time is bringing us more people, / and more people will bring us more industry, / more motor vehicles, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials. / What can explain and solve this problem? / The fact is that pollution is caused by man / --by his desire for a modem way of life. / We make increasing industrialization our chief aim. / For its sake, we are willing to sacrifice everything: / clean air, pure water, good food, our health and the future of our children. / There is a constant flow of people from the countryside into the cities, / eager for the benefits of modem society. / But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, / so pollution has become a serious problem. / Isn't it time we stopped to ask ourselves where we are going and why? /
[注意]vehicles(交通工具)的拼寫；industrialization工業(yè)化；sacrifice犧牲；technological技術(shù)的；后一句用了虛擬語氣，注意stop要用過去時。

SECTION A CONVERSATIONS
Questions 1 to 3 are based on the following conversation.
M." We've got a lot of work to do now, but take your time over this project. We don't want to make any mistakes.
W: Ok. I should have it finished by Friday afternoon. Then I can check those accounts over the weekend. We need to have them finished by Monday, right?
M: That's right. We'll finish them just in time. The financial analysis project can wait for the time being. We need to spend several days on that project, [l]but it isn't due to be finished until the end of the month, so we have plenty of time to get it done.
W: From next week on, we should be in less of a rash.
M: [2] I'm going to give everyone on the team an extra day off. Everyone deserves it.
W: [2] Don't say that yet. A new project could suddenly appear.
M: That's true. Right, [3] I'm going back to the meeting. It's been going on for hours and there's no indication that it'll end soon.
W: Carol said that she would spend some time checking that everyone is up-to-date with their work.
M: Good. I have to go right now. I really hope this meeting doesn't last too long.
W: They usually go on for ages.
M: I'll stop by if I have time later. Make sure everyone knows that we must stick to the deadlines.
W: I will. Enjoy your meeting!

Questions 4 to 6 are based on the following conversation.
M: Hello. Is this the registration office?
W: Yes. This is Kate speaking. How can I help you?
M: Well, I have a slight problem here. [4]I have been in Chemistry 302B class for a month, and today Prof. Anderson told me I wasn't registered in his latest class list. I thought all the while I was registered in his class and this really comes as a surprise.
W: Well, why don't you give me your student ID and I'll just check to see if you are officially registered.
M: 37754.
W: Just a minute. And you are John Ashton, right?
M: Yes, that's me.
W: John, the computer shows that you are registered in Chemistry 302A and that's Dr. Bolton's class. Perhaps you have mixed up the two.
M: Oh no, I thought I'd made a switch from Bolton to Anderson. How did this confusion occur? I dropped Bolton's class and switched to Anderson's in the first week. I still have the add/drop form with me.
W: In that case, [6] I suggest you come to the registration office with the add/drop form and we'll try to sort it out for you. [51I don't role out there could have been a mistake that occurred during the add/drop process.
M: I'll be there first thing in the morning to sort out this mess. You know, I wouldn't want to switch professors when I'm now half way through.
W: I can understand that. See you tomorrow.

Questions 7 to I0 are based on the following conversation.

W: Anything else?
M: No that's all for now. Hey, honey, you know, they're organizing a company basketball team, and I'm thinking about joining. What do you think?
W: Humph.
M: "Humph"! What do you mean "Humph"? I was the star player in high school.
W: Yeah, twenty-five years ago. Look, I just don't want you to have a heart attack running up and down the court.
M: So, what arc you suggesting? Should I just abandon the idea? I'm not that out of shape.
W: Well... [8] you ought to at least have a physical check before you begin. I mean, [9] it has been at least five years since you played at all.
M: Well, okay, but...
W: And you need to watch your diet and cut back on the fatty foods, like ice cream. And you should try eating more fresh fruits and vegetables.
M: Yeah, you're probably right.
W: And [10] you should take up a little weight training to strengthen your muscles or perhaps try cycling. Oh, and you need to go to bed early instead of watching TV half the night.
M: Hey, you're starting to sound like my personal fitness instructor!
W: No, I just love you, and I want you to be around for a long, long time.

SECTION B PASSAGES
Questions 11 to 13 are based on the following passage.
Most children in the United States have a summer holiday of almost three months mostly because it was difficult to hold classes in the hot summer weather.
American schools began to experiment with changing this system. One idea was for children to attend school all year round. [11] Students who attend year-round' schools in the United States do not go to class every day of the year. But the time is organized differently. For example, some students attend school five days a week for nine weeks. Then they have three weeks off before going back to school for another nine weeks. In the summer they have about five weeks of holiday.
Supporters of year-round schooling say it improves student learning. They say students in the traditional system often forget what they have learned during a long summer holiday. They say schools can offer special classes during the short holidays for students who need extra belp.
[12]People opposed to year-round schooling say the research has not proved that it improves learning. Families report problems organizing activities and travel when children in different schools have different holidays. Some parents want their children to have an extended summer away from the pressures of school. People who operate summer camps for children oppose the idea. So do businesses that employ teenagers in the summer.

Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage.
To be successful in a job interview, [14] you should demonstrate certain personal and professional qualities. You need to create a good image in the limited time available, usually from 30 to 45 minutes. You must make a positive impression which the interviewer will remember while he interviews other candidates. The following are some qualities you should especially pay attention to during an interview. First of all, you should take care to appear to be properly dressed. [15]The right clothes worn at the right time can win respect of the interviewer and his confidence in your judgment. It may not be true that clothes make a man. But the first and often last impression of you is determined by the clothes you wear. Secondly, you should pay close attention to your manner of speaking, since speech is a reflection of personality. [16]You should reflect confidence by speaking in a clear voice, loud enough to be heard, without being aggressive or overpowering. You should be prepared to talk knowledgeably about the requirements of the position you are applying for. [17]Finally, to be really impressive you must convey a sense of self-confidence and enthusiasm for work. If you display these characteristics, with just a little luck, you'll certainly succeed in the typical personal interview.

Sandburg's book "Abraham Lincoln" is often considered the greatest biography of modern time. He won the Pulitzer Prize in 1940 for "The Prairie Years" and "The War Years". His first novel was "Remembrance Rock" in 1948. [20]Again in 1951 he received the Pulitzer Prize for his Collected Poems.

The protest comes two days after regional elections in which President Nicolas Sarkozy's centre-fight UMP party suffered a heavy defeat.

Questions 23 to 25 are based on the following news.

The second blast at Park Kultury, which is six stops away from Lubyanka, came about 40 minutes later. It struck at the back of the train as people were getting on board.

Officers needing a larger size will be given a year to slim down or face being kicked off the force, he said.
Key: 28. [C]
Questions 29 and 30 are based on the following news.
The US Capital, Washington DC, is fighting an epidemic of HIV/AIDS that's affecting 3% of the city's population. [29]The rate of infection is the highest in the US and higher than a number of African nations. Washington's H1V/AIDS problem is getting worse, not better. There's been a 20% increase in cases in the past two years. The city's department of health says that 3% of its residents over the age of twelve are now living with HIV/AIDS. In Washington the majority of those infected are African American. Men aged between 40 and 50 have been the hardest hit. The city is discussing ways of tackling the problem with an emphasis on more testing. [30]But Washington's Mayor says that so far the message appears to be going in one ear and out the other.

2011英語專四考試預(yù)測題參考答案：Part 5 Reading Comprehension
TEXT A
【文章概要】
本文探討飲食變革以及給人們帶來的啟示。第l段介紹作者孩提時候意大利家庭的生活方式及飲食；第2段描述超市的出現(xiàn)及食物批量生產(chǎn)對意大利家庭生活及飲食的改變；第3段闡釋這一改變所帶來的利弊并提出作者對此的觀點：第4-6段闡述了飲食變革給人們帶來的啟示。
【答案解析】
81．[C]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)文章第l段的描述：在作者孩提時代的意大利家庭里，母親們很少外出工作，祖孫三代同居一室．家人必須聚在一起用餐，吃的東西除了配料來自市場外，大部分蔬菜都是自己種植，肉類則是來自朋友或熟人喂養(yǎng)的牲畜，因此選項C符合題意。B表述與原文有出入。D中的fresh沒有原文依據(jù)。
82．[A]詞義理解題。第2段指出20世紀60—70年代家烘的蛋糕和手工面食已經(jīng)不受歡迎了，取而代之的是工廠加工的食品；而到了80年代末期，食品加工已發(fā)生……變革。再結(jié)合該段末句的loss和threatened可知，隨著時間的推移，飲食變革對人們的影響越來越大，故選項A正確。
83．[D]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)題干中的1960s定位到第2段。根據(jù)第2段可知，超市及大批量生產(chǎn)的廉價食品越來越多，女性從家務(wù)中解放出來并開始出去工作；不再有人在家烘烤蛋糕和手工制面了。因此A、B、C選項都是60年代后所發(fā)生的變化，本題為逆向選擇題，因此D符合題意。
84．[D]段落細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第5段后一句可知，如果將過去的思想應(yīng)用到日漸復(fù)雜的社會，那么我們將會擁有一個平和的未來和一個寧靜的世界。因此選項D符合題意。在本段中，無法推斷出作者對食品變革感到失望，因此不選A。
85．[C]全文主旨題。本文探討了飲食變革及給人的啟示，文章后一段指出，民以食為天，人類如果只是將食物看成能讓我們加速前進的能量就大錯特錯了，這樣會加速整個地球及能源的消耗，從而造成難以想象的后果，因此選項C符合題意。
TEXT B
【文章概要】
本文講述了科技帶來的負面影響。第l段指出網(wǎng)絡(luò)、電子商務(wù)和全球化使新的經(jīng)濟時代成為可能；第2段作者通過調(diào)查．指出新科技給人們的生活帶來的負面影響；第3-6段分析科技從哪些方面影響人們的生活；第7段表明了作者的看法．一味追求高效率的科技也許會使人們喪失比時間更寶貴的東西。
【答案解析】
86．[C]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)corporate executives定位到第2段。從每個人的回答“沒有，正好相反”可推斷C正確；公司經(jīng)理們的回答和接下來講到的時間更長，壓力更大，更不耐煩等等可知他們要強調(diào)的是科技給他們帶來的負面影響，故A、B、D都可排除。
87．[B]細節(jié)判斷題。從第3段可知A中的free是文中l(wèi)iberate的同義替換，故A不選；第3段說到網(wǎng)絡(luò)生活開始奴役我們。但并不是說網(wǎng)絡(luò)一代變成了技術(shù)的奴隸，故B錯誤，為正確答案；從Instead可推知，技術(shù)專家們向人們保證“使生活變得更方便，節(jié)省更多的時間”的諾言沒有實現(xiàn)，相反科技的進步占用了人們更多的時間，C、D的說法是正確的。
88．[C]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)resource定位到第4段第2句。第2句明確指出，各種業(yè)務(wù)占據(jù)了我們的閑暇時光，時問反倒成了稀少的資源，故選C。
89．[D]細節(jié)推斷題。第6段后一個疑問旬“是不是這種高速文化使大家失去了耐心，不愿意傾聽、服從，不愿意深思熟慮?”由此可知D正確。該段第l句指明社會保守派將人們變得沒有禮貌歸咎于道德規(guī)范和宗教價值的淪喪．故A錯誤；B項是社會保守派的觀點，故排除；C“高速文化導(dǎo)致了文明的淪喪”這與該段后一句是有出入的，故C也可排除。
90．[B]主旨大意題。文章主要講述了新的科技革命本著為人類節(jié)約時間、節(jié)約能量的宗旨，但事實上卻給人們帶來了很多的負面影響，使人們更加忙碌不堪。A“新的網(wǎng)絡(luò)生活”太過籠統(tǒng)；C“科技復(fù)興的失敗”，不符合文意；D “生活質(zhì)量的下降”這只是第2段公司經(jīng)理們的觀點，過于片面，故選B。

Academic Dishonesty on Campus
It is shown in the recent surveys that many college students copy papers from the Internet to save the trouble of doing their homework．In my opinion，this kind of academic dishonesty is very harmful to these students．
First，copying papers from the Internet makes students lazy．Copying papers from the Internet seems easy and can save some time and trouble，therefore，students will do this more and more often and seldom work hard to complete their papers on their own．In other word，students will become lazier and lazier．Second，students can lean little from copying others’ work．Students cannot improve their abilities just by downloading papers from the Internet without their own thinking and working．What’s worse, once students get used to academic cheatin9，they may also cheat in other cases in the future，which will be very dangerous for them．
To prevent academic dishonesty on campus，some punishment by the school may be necessary．But the most important thing is that teachers should talk to those students，and make them aware of the fact that copying others’ work cannot bring them any knowledge and that only by working hard Can they improve themselves．

M." We've got a lot of work to do now, but take your time over this project. We don't want to make any mistakes.
W: Ok. I should have it finished by Friday afternoon. Then I can check those accounts over the weekend. We need to have them finished by Monday, right?
M: That's right. We'll finish them just in time. The financial analysis project can wait for the time being. We need to spend several days on that project, [l]but it isn't due to be finished until the end of the month, so we have plenty of time to get it done.
W: From next week on, we should be in less of a rash.
M: [2] I'm going to give everyone on the team an extra day off. Everyone deserves it.
W: [2] Don't say that yet. A new project could suddenly appear.
M: That's true. Right, [3] I'm going back to the meeting. It's been going on for hours and there's no indication that it'll end soon.
W: Carol said that she would spend some time checking that everyone is up-to-date with their work.

Questions 4 to 6 are based on the following conversation.
M: Hello. Is this the registration office?
W: Yes. This is Kate speaking. How can I help you?
M: Well, I have a slight problem here. [4]I have been in Chemistry 302B class for a month, and today Prof. Anderson told me I wasn't registered in his latest class list. I thought all the while I was registered in his class and this really comes as a surprise.
W: Well, why don't you give me your student ID and I'll just check to see if you are officially registered.
M: 37754.
W: Just a minute. And you are John Ashton, right?
M: Yes, that's me.
W: John, the computer shows that you are registered in Chemistry 302A and that's Dr. Bolton's class. Perhaps you have mixed up the two.
M: Oh no, I thought I'd made a switch from Bolton to Anderson. How did this confusion occur? I dropped Bolton's class and switched to Anderson's in the first week. I still have the add/drop form with me.
W: In that case, [6] I suggest you come to the registration office with the add/drop form and we'll try to sort it out for you. [51I don't role out there could have been a mistake that occurred during the add/drop process.
M: I'll be there first thing in the morning to sort out this mess. You know, I wouldn't want to switch professors when I'm now half way through.

M: Well, okay, but...
W: And you need to watch your diet and cut back on the fatty foods, like ice cream. And you should try eating more fresh fruits and vegetables.
M: Yeah, you're probably right.

SECTION B PASSAGES
Questions 11 to 13 are based on the following passage.
Most children in the United States have a summer holiday of almost three months mostly because it was difficult to hold classes in the hot summer weather.
American schools began to experiment with changing this system. One idea was for children to attend school all year round. [11] Students who attend year-round' schools in the United States do not go to class every day of the year. But the time is organized differently. For example, some students attend school five days a week for nine weeks. Then they have three weeks off before going back to school for another nine weeks. In the summer they have about five weeks of holiday.
Supporters of year-round schooling say it improves student learning. They say students in the traditional system often forget what they have learned during a long summer holiday. They say schools can offer special classes during the short holidays for students who need extra belp.
[12]People opposed to year-round schooling say the research has not proved that it improves learning. Families report problems organizing activities and travel when children in different schools have different holidays. Some parents want their children to have an extended summer away from the pressures of school. People who operate summer camps for children oppose the idea. So do businesses that employ teenagers in the summer.

Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage.
To be successful in a job interview, [14] you should demonstrate certain personal and professional qualities. You need to create a good image in the limited time available, usually from 30 to 45 minutes. You must make a positive impression which the interviewer will remember while he interviews other candidates. The following are some qualities you should especially pay attention to during an interview. First of all, you should take care to appear to be properly dressed. [15]The right clothes worn at the right time can win respect of the interviewer and his confidence in your judgment. It may not be true that clothes make a man. But the first and often last impression of you is determined by the clothes you wear. Secondly, you should pay close attention to your manner of speaking, since speech is a reflection of personality. [16]You should reflect confidence by speaking in a clear voice, loud enough to be heard, without being aggressive or overpowering. You should be prepared to talk knowledgeably about the requirements of the position you are applying for. [17]Finally, to be really impressive you must convey a sense of self-confidence and enthusiasm for work. If you display these characteristics, with just a little luck, you'll certainly succeed in the typical personal interview.

His first novel was "Remembrance Rock" in 1948. [20]Again in 1951 he received the Pulitzer Prize for his Collected Poems.

2011英語專四考試預(yù)測題參考答案：Part 5 Reading Comprehension
TEXT A
【文章概要】
本文探討飲食變革以及給人們帶來的啟示。第l段介紹作者孩提時候意大利家庭的生活方式及飲食；第2段描述超市的出現(xiàn)及食物批量生產(chǎn)對意大利家庭生活及飲食的改變；第3段闡釋這一改變所帶來的利弊并提出作者對此的觀點：第4-6段闡述了飲食變革給人們帶來的啟示。
【答案解析】
81．[C]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)文章第l段的描述：在作者孩提時代的意大利家庭里，母親們很少外出工作，祖孫三代同居一室．家人必須聚在一起用餐，吃的東西除了配料來自市場外，大部分蔬菜都是自己種植，肉類則是來自朋友或熟人喂養(yǎng)的牲畜，因此選項C符合題意。B表述與原文有出入。D中的fresh沒有原文依據(jù)。
82．[A]詞義理解題。第2段指出20世紀60—70年代家烘的蛋糕和手工面食已經(jīng)不受歡迎了，取而代之的是工廠加工的食品；而到了80年代末期，食品加工已發(fā)生……變革。再結(jié)合該段末句的loss和threatened可知，隨著時間的推移，飲食變革對人們的影響越來越大，故選項A正確。
83．[D]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)題干中的1960s定位到第2段。根據(jù)第2段可知，超市及大批量生產(chǎn)的廉價食品越來越多，女性從家務(wù)中解放出來并開始出去工作；不再有人在家烘烤蛋糕和手工制面了。因此A、B、C選項都是60年代后所發(fā)生的變化，本題為逆向選擇題，因此D符合題意。
84．[D]段落細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第5段后一句可知，如果將過去的思想應(yīng)用到日漸復(fù)雜的社會，那么我們將會擁有一個平和的未來和一個寧靜的世界。因此選項D符合題意。在本段中，無法推斷出作者對食品變革感到失望，因此不選A。
85．[C]全文主旨題。本文探討了飲食變革及給人的啟示，文章后一段指出，民以食為天，人類如果只是將食物看成能讓我們加速前進的能量就大錯特錯了，這樣會加速整個地球及能源的消耗，從而造成難以想象的后果，因此選項C符合題意。
TEXT B
【文章概要】
本文講述了科技帶來的負面影響。第l段指出網(wǎng)絡(luò)、電子商務(wù)和全球化使新的經(jīng)濟時代成為可能；第2段作者通過調(diào)查．指出新科技給人們的生活帶來的負面影響；第3-6段分析科技從哪些方面影響人們的生活；第7段表明了作者的看法．一味追求高效率的科技也許會使人們喪失比時間更寶貴的東西。
【答案解析】
86．[C]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)corporate executives定位到第2段。從每個人的回答“沒有，正好相反”可推斷C正確；公司經(jīng)理們的回答和接下來講到的時間更長，壓力更大，更不耐煩等等可知他們要強調(diào)的是科技給他們帶來的負面影響，故A、B、D都可排除。
87．[B]細節(jié)判斷題。從第3段可知A中的free是文中l(wèi)iberate的同義替換，故A不選；第3段說到網(wǎng)絡(luò)生活開始奴役我們。但并不是說網(wǎng)絡(luò)一代變成了技術(shù)的奴隸，故B錯誤，為正確答案；從Instead可推知，技術(shù)專家們向人們保證“使生活變得更方便，節(jié)省更多的時間”的諾言沒有實現(xiàn)，相反科技的進步占用了人們更多的時間，C、D的說法是正確的。
88．[C]細節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)resource定位到第4段第2句。第2句明確指出，各種業(yè)務(wù)占據(jù)了我們的閑暇時光，時問反倒成了稀少的資源，故選C。
89．[D]細節(jié)推斷題。第6段后一個疑問旬“是不是這種高速文化使大家失去了耐心，不愿意傾聽、服從，不愿意深思熟慮?”由此可知D正確。該段第l句指明社會保守派將人們變得沒有禮貌歸咎于道德規(guī)范和宗教價值的淪喪．故A錯誤；B項是社會保守派的觀點，故排除；C“高速文化導(dǎo)致了文明的淪喪”這與該段后一句是有出入的，故C也可排除。
90．[B]主旨大意題。文章主要講述了新的科技革命本著為人類節(jié)約時間、節(jié)約能量的宗旨，但事實上卻給人們帶來了很多的負面影響，使人們更加忙碌不堪。A“新的網(wǎng)絡(luò)生活”太過籠統(tǒng)；C“科技復(fù)興的失敗”，不符合文意；D “生活質(zhì)量的下降”這只是第2段公司經(jīng)理們的觀點，過于片面，故選B。

【答案解析】
96．[B]細節(jié)判斷題?？疾楦柲λ沟娜宋镄愿裉卣鳎ㄎ坏降趌段。第1段描寫福爾摩斯是一個總是拿著卷曲煙斗、嗜好古柯堿、善于推理和偽裝的一個人，因此A、C、D選項都是對福爾摩斯這一人物特征的描繪，而選項B (社交廣的)并未在文中提及，本題是逆向選擇題，因此選項B是答案。

2011英語專四考試預(yù)測題參考答案：PART VI WRITING
Academic Dishonesty on Campus
It is shown in the recent surveys that many college students copy papers from the Internet to save the trouble of doing their homework．In my opinion，this kind of academic dishonesty is very harmful to these students．
First，copying papers from the Internet makes students lazy．Copying papers from the Internet seems easy and can save some time and trouble，therefore，students will do this more and more often and seldom work hard to complete their papers on their own．In other word，students will become lazier and lazier．Second，students can lean little from copying others’ work．Students cannot improve their abilities just by downloading papers from the Internet without their own thinking and working．What’s worse, once students get used to academic cheatin9，they may also cheat in other cases in the future，which will be very dangerous for them．
To prevent academic dishonesty on campus，some punishment by the school may be necessary．But the most important thing is that teachers should talk to those students，and make them aware of the fact that copying others’ work cannot bring them any knowledge and that only by working hard Can they improve themselves．
