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)的拼写；industrialization工业化；sacrifice牺牲；technological技术的；后一句用了虚拟语气，注意stop要用过去时。

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.

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.

W: Anything else?

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.

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.
Keys: 11. [C] 12. [A] 13. [D]
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.

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.

83．[D]细节判断题。根据题干中的1960s定位到第2段。根据第2段可知，超市及大批量生产的廉价食品越来越多，女性从家务中解放出来并开始出去工作；不再有人在家烘烤蛋糕和手工制面了。因此A、B、C选项都是60年代后所发生的变化，本题为逆向选择题，因此D符合题意。

85．[C]全文主旨题。本文探讨了饮食变革及给人的启示，文章后一段指出，民以食为天，人类如果只是将食物看成能让我们加速前进的能量就大错特错了，这样会加速整个地球及能源的消耗，从而造成难以想象的后果，因此选项C符合题意。

91．[A]句意理解题。文章首句提到，一个有钱的单身汉，总需要一位妻子，故选项A符合题意。
92．[B]细节判断题。考查Mr．Bingley的性格特征，从Mrs．Bennet与Mr．Bennet的对话中可以得知，Mr．Bingley是个富有、大方的单身汉。选项A、C、D都是对这些特征的描述，本题为逆向选择题，要求选出不符合Mr．Bingley性格特征的一项，故答案为8。
93．[C]细节判断题。文中Mrs．Bennet与Mr．Bennet谈话目的就是希望丈夫能去拜访新的邻居从而为她的某个女儿创造机会。故选C。
94．[B]观点态度题。根据文章后一段可知，Mr．Bennet对太太的提议无动于衷并打趣说让她自己带着女儿去，或许Mr．Bingley在晚会上喜欢她。因此选项B符合题意。
95．[A]全文基调问题。本文的作者用讽刺的语言，向我们描绘了一幅母亲试图为自己女儿创造一段姻缘的场景。因此选项A符合题意。
TEXT D
【文章概要】
本文描述了柯南道尔的生平及创造福尔摩斯的过程。首段分析柯南道尔作品中福尔摩斯的特征；第2-3段介绍柯南道尔的生平及家庭背景；末段讲述了他的成名过程。
【答案解析】
96．[B]细节判断题。考查福尔摩斯的人物性格特征，定位到第l段。第1段描写福尔摩斯是一个总是拿着卷曲烟斗、嗜好古柯碱、善于推理和伪装的一个人，因此A、C、D选项都是对福尔摩斯这一人物特征的描绘，而选项B (社交广的)并未在文中提及，本题是逆向选择题，因此选项B是答案。
97．[D]细节判断题。考查柯南道尔的家庭背景，定位到第3段。本段提到柯南道尔出生在一个中产阶级家庭但是生活很不容易，也对他的父亲进行了介绍。但是对于他的母亲文章只提到柯南道尔给其母亲写信并未提及其母受教育情况，因此选项D是答案。
98．[D]细节判断题。考查柯南道尔对伦敦的印象，定位到第3段。根据第3段末句可知，第伦敦之旅给柯南道尔留下难以磨灭的记忆，故答案D符合题意，同时排除其他三项。
99．[C]细节推断题。从后一段的描述可知，柯南道尔在经历了失败和挫折之后终才取得了成功，故选项C符合题意。Bell能够从手上老茧的位置来判断一个人的职业，A误读了原文。柯南道尔的小说A Study in Scarlet以Bell为原型，但不能以此说明作者总是根据亲身经历来创作。
100．[A]细节判断题。考查柯南道尔的小说后的结果，定位到后一段。根据末段末句可知，柯南道尔发表在Strand Magazine上的短篇小说A Scandal in Bohemia中的男主角风靡一时，柯南道尔的人生也将由此发生改变．因此A选项符合题意。

2011英语专四考试预测题参考答案：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．
