2011英语专四预测试题答案：Part 1 Dictation
On Books
The greatest advantage of books does not always come from / what we remember of them, but from their suggestiveness. / A good book often serves as a match to light the powder within us / and wake up our latent possibilities. / We form many of our opinions from our favorite books. / The author whom we prefer is our best teacher: / we look at the world through his eyes. ! If we habitually read books that are elevating in tone, / pure in style, sound in reasoning, and keen in sight, / our minds develop the same characteristics. / If, on the contrary, we read weak or vicious books, / our minds contract the faults and vices of the books. / We can't escape the influence of what we read / any more than we can escape the influence of the air that we breathe. ! Whatever you read, learn to absorb the most knowledge / and convert it into character. /
【听写难点】suggestiveness启发；serves as起作用；latent潜在的；habitually习惯性地；elevating有教育意义的，高尚的：sound in reasonin9符合逻辑推理；vicious邪恶的，堕落的；contract染上；convert转变。

2011英语专四预测试题答案：Part 2 Listening Comprehension
Questions 1 to 3 are based on the following conversation.
W: Hi, Zach.
M: Hey, Lisa. What are you doing here?
W: I work here on weekends. How come you decided to come to the travel agency? Planning a trip?
M: Yeah, well, you know our breaks are coming, and I need a quick getaway trip somewhere.
W: Well, someone's got the money to burn. But [2] we hardworking students need a break too.
M: I'm going to tell you up-front Lisa. It's not what you think. I'm on a tight budget like everyone else here but I've got to get out of this town for a while.
W: where to?
M: Florida, maybe. I'll go to see a Miami Dolphin football game.
W: And [1] you need a flight for next week? Well, you are the one who leaves things to the last minute but hmm… let me take a look in the screen... United got one to Miami but a bit expensive so let me see if there's anything else available.
M: Preferably below $400 for return, can you swing it?
W: One by Phoenix Air for $350. [3]It's a small plane though. Are you sure you don't want me to check again for other flights. It would only take a second.
M: No, that sounds within my range.
W: All fight. Just let me phone in and confirm the times.
Keys: 1. [D] 2. [C] 3. [A]
Questions 4 to 7 are based on the following conversation.
M: I'm sorry I'm late, Rose.
W: That's all fight, Vic. My house isn't that easy to find. Many of my friends have trouble to find the way when they come for the first time. But you know, you wouldn't have gotten lost if you had a "smart" car.
M: A smart car? I have never heard of that before. What's a smart car?
W: [41I just read a magazine article about some new technology that can make a car smart. One device is a computerized map display/ and a synthesized voice. You must enter the address where you want to go, and the voice tells you how to get there, street by street.
M: Hey, that's just like my brother. [5]He never gets lost, and he's always telling me the best route. So what else will a smart car be able to do?
W: Well, [6] the article said that they will be equipped with radar warning systems that will warn drivers if they're getting too close to other cars with an alarm signal, and they will even put on the brakes if the drivers don't.
M: Tell me, Rose, will these cars be smart enough to fill themselves up with gas?
W: Not that I know of. Why do you ask?
M: Well, I'm not late because I got lost--[7] I'm late because I ran out of gas on the way over here.
Keys: 4. [A] 5. [B] 6. [D] 7. [B]
Questions 8 to 10 are based on the following conversation.
W: What do you plan to order?
M: I think I just have a salad and a cup of tea.
W: Is that all?
M: Yes, I'm on a diet. My doctor told me that I should lose some weight because I'm too heavy--and that's not healthy.
W: How do you feel?
M: [8] I feel fine. In fact, I've never felt better. Furthermore, some of my old clothes would fit me if I lost about 40 pounds.
W: How long will that take you?
M: Well, I've just started my diet, so it may take me six months to get down to my proper weight.
W: Do you plan to eat nothing but salads for 6 months?
M: No, [9] I'11 be able to eat fruit and certain meats and dairy products. But, most important, I should not eat anything containing sugar.
W: [10] Then you probably won't want to try the delicious pastries they serve here; I know the head cook is an excellent pastry chef.
M: Now that you mention it, I may have two or three of these delicious hot rolls. I usually have five or six.
Keys: 8. [B] 9. [B] 10. [C]
SECTION B PASSAGES
Questions 11 to 13 are based on the following passage.
Good evening. You are listening to Pop World of BCD International. I'm Susan. Well, first, [11] I would like to say a few words to my dear listeners who are not very familiar with this program.
Since many people want to listen to and understand pop songs, radio producers at BCD International have made hundreds of programs over the years. We not only have access to the stars of the music world, but we also have a vast library of "golden oldie" classics, as well as the "latest releases".
For those of you who like a bit of background with your favorite music--there's The History of Pop or The Road to Music. [12]If you want to hear from the artists themselves, there's a new series called About the Big Hits. This is based on interviews with popular singers and songwriters. [13] If you want to understand the words to the big music hits, Pop Words is the program for you. After all, it's hard enough for native English speakers to understand most pop songs--so, if English isn't your first language, you shouldn't be surprised if the words to many songs leave you in the dark.
Keys: 11. [D] 12. [A] 13. [C]
Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage.
We have tended to view Yoga as a kind of exotic religious exercise but in fact from a medical standpoint, the age-old set of exercises known in the West as "yoga" offers a significant variety of proven health benefits. [14]It increases the efficiency of the heart and slows the respiratory rate, improves fitness, lowers blood pressure and reduces stress. It also serves to improve coordination, posture, flexibility, concentration and digestion. Atypical session includes three disciplines: breathing exercises, body postures, and meditation. Each session usually begins with a set of gentle warm-up exercises. The teacher will then ask you to focus on your breathing, and may take you through several breathing exercises. At the very least, you will be asked to breathe through your nose, evenly through your nostrils. Then it's on to the yoga postures, a series of poses that typically must be held for periods of a few seconds to several minutes. [15]As you assume the various postures, you will be asked to move gently, without jerking or bouncing. Breathing techniques remain important. You will need to focus on exhaling during certain movements and inhaling during others. You will be allowed to rest after every three or four postures, [16land at the conclusion of the exercises, there is usually a period of rest or meditation.
Keys: 14. [A] 15. [C] 16. [B] 17. [A]
Questions 18 to 20 are based on the following passage.
[18]When I first went to London as a student, I sat alone during parties with my glass of wine. I hoped people would think that I was having great thoughts and that someone might come up to me and say "Excuse me, I hope you won't mind my coming up to you like this. I don't want to interrupt your thoughts. But really, you are the only interesting looking person in the room. May I talk to you?" It never happened. Here is some advice if you would like to be a good conversationalist. [20]Be an attentive listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. To be interesting, be interested. Ask questions that other people will enjoy answering. Encourage them to talk about themselves and what they have done. [19]Remember that the people you are talking to are a hundred times more interested in themselves and their problems than they are in you and your problems. A person's toothache means more to that person than a famine in Africa which kills a million people. Think of that the next time you start a conversation. Diogenes, the Greek philosopher said: "The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is so that we may listen more and talk less."
Keys: 18. [C] 19. [D] 20. [C]
SECTION C NEWS BROADCAST
Questions 21 and 22 are based on the following news.
[21]The Israeli military says two soldiers were killed in a fierce firefight_ with militants Friday who were planting explosives along the security fence in the southern Gaza Strip. Two other Israeli soldiers were evacuated to a hospital after being wounded in the exchange of fire, which the military blamed on Hamas, holding the militant group solely responsible for maintaining peace and quiet in the Gaza Strip. [22]Israel says its soldiers opened fire on the militants planting explosives, killing two of them. Friday's violence was some of the worst in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip since Israel's military offensive there more than a year ago. Two Palestinians, one a 10-year-old boy, were also wounded, Gaza hospital officials told the Associated Press.]
Keys: 21. [C] 22. [A]
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the following news.
The United Nations will host a major conference on the long-term recovery efforts for Iraq today at its main headquarters in New York. [23]UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon will co-chair the ministerial session with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. [24]Representatives from 20 nations will participate in the conference
including many Iraq's neighbors such as Iran, Kuwait and Syria. [25]The meeting will focus on a resolution adopted by the General Assembly last month to expand the UN's presence in Iraq. Also on the agenda is the international compact on Iraq of five-year economic and political recovery strategy.
Keys: 23. [C] 24. [D] 25. [D]
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the following news.
An infectious virus linked to two diseases is drawing the attention of public-health officials, who are investigating the potential threat to the nation's blood supply.
[26]It isn't clear if the virus, known as XMRV, poses a danger, and public-health officials say there isn't evidence of spreading infection. [27]But because of concern over the potential for widespread infection and preliminary evidence that XMRV is transmitted similarly to HIV, officials are quickly trying to determine if action is needed to protect the blood supply.
XMRV was discovered in 2006 when it was found in tumor samples from men with a rare form of familial prostate cancer. Research has also linked the virus to chronic fatigue syndrome and found it in measurable levels in the blood of healthy people. But the evidence isn't conclusive, as several other studies failed to find XMRV in the blood of people with chronic fatigue syndrome, [28]and it isn't known how prevalent the virus is or whether it causes disease.
Keys: 26. [B] 27. [C] 28. [D]
Questions 29 and 30 are based on the following news.
Conservationists say the Internet has emerged as one of the biggest threats to endangered species.
[29]It is easier than ever before to buy and sell anything from live baby lions to polar bear pelts on the Internet, as buyers and sellers take advantage_ of the anonymity and vast global market--the World Wide Web can offer. The findings were presented at the 175-nation Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, which is meeting in Doha, Qatar. Several proposals to give endangered species more protection were defeated. A proposal from the US and Sweden to regulate the trade in red and pink coral was defeated. [30]Delegates voted the idea down mostly over concerns the increased regulations might impact poor fishing communities.

2011英语专四预测试题答案：Part 4 Grammer Vocabulary
51．[B]【译文】谁来管理我们并不重要，重要的是他如何管理我们。
【解析】考查强调句型。英语中常用It is／was…who／that结构来强调句子的某一成分(一般是主语、宾语或状语)。在这个句型中，it没有词汇意义，只是引出被强调的成分。在这里被强调的是“谁来管理我们”，在主句中作主语，B符合。

【解析】考查主谓一致。more than one从意义上看，表示复数，但用作主语时，谓语用单数。故选B。
53．[A]【译文】昨晚忙到那么晚，今天早上你本不必来的了。
【解析】情态动词接完成体的用法。“needn’t+have done”表示“本不必做的事情却做了”。A符合旬意。shouldn’t have done表示“本不应该做的事却做了”；can’t have done则表对过去事情的否定推测，译成“不可能做过某事”；没有mustn’t have done的形式。

【解析】考查时态。她看见是真，而且已经发生，所以用过去时。
61．[A]【译文】晚装，深色西装比浅色好。
【解析】考查preferable的搭配。Preferable“更可取的”，本身就含有比较的意思，常与to连用，表比较。类似用法的单词还有：prefer，superior，inferior，senior，junior，prior，major，minor，etc．。
62．[B]【译文】他对物理学知之甚少，更不用说数学了。
【解析】考查比较级的否定形式。still less表示“更不用说，更何况”，and并列结构提示他对数学的了解应该是更不及物理学。故选B。

65．[B]【译文】“我正要去看电影，他提醒我说我已经看过了”这句话与下列哪个选项含义相当?

2011英语专四预测试题答案：Part 5 Reading Comprehension
TEXT A
【文章概要】
本文探讨是否该用晾衣绳在室外晾晒衣服。第l段指出干衣机不利环保，由此引出用晾衣绳晾衣服的话题；第2段介绍对用晾衰绳晒衣服的两种对立观点；第3段描述环保主义者Matt Reck用晾衣绳在室外晒衣服，并指出他的行为引发邻居的不满及业主委员会成员Otto Hagen的注意；第4段指出北卡罗来纳州立法者试图修订法律规定业主委员会对住户是否在室外晾衣无权干涉，法案却没有通过的原因；最后一段：Alexander Lee认为人们应该改变观念，为减少碳排放量贡献力量。
【答案解析】
81[D]细节判断题。考查使用干衣机的弊端，文章第1段第2句话对此有叙述：有些人认为干衣机浪费能源从而造成电的损耗．释放的二氧化碳污染空气，A、B、C选项分别列举了这些弊端，本题是逆向选择题，要求选出不是干衣机弊端的一项，故选D。
82．[C]细节判断题。第2段提到，户外晾衣绳不仅破坏优美的风景还降低房产价值，A、B都对。D与本段最后一句表述也相符。C无法从文中推断出来，故选C。
83．[C]观点态度题。考查HOAs协会的成员对限制使用晾衣绳的态度。第3段最后几旬提到，如果Matt继续使用晾衣绳，HOAs的成员Hagen就要直接出面说Matt了，这间接表明了HOAs协会的态度；另外，从第4段前两句，也可推知C正确。
84．[D]段落细节题。在最后一段，Alexander Lee提出，鉴于全球变暖我们的观念需要改变，至少要做到尽可能减少碳物质的排放。因此选项D符合题意。A与原文意思相反；B虽然是Alexander Lee的观点，却不是他要提倡的，故不选。C并不是Alexander Lee的观点。
85.[B]全文主旨题。本文就是否应该限制使用晾衣绳进行了探讨分析，文章最后呼吁人类改变观念，每个人都应为保护环境尽一份力。选项B符合题意。A太宽泛；C明显不对；D只体现了文中一些人的观点，过于片面。
Text B
【文章概要】
本文以个人无意泄漏电话号码和电子邮件为例引出对隐私问题的探讨。首段指出简单无意识地泄漏个人信息的行为可能事后会给自己带来麻烦；第2段讲述某些小公司利用泄漏个人信息来赢利，使得隐私成为一个棘手的问题；第3段进一步提到隐私问题不一定只涉及大机构，隐私在日常生活中就可能有意无意地受到侵犯；第4段讲到美国人对隐私问题的态度及作者对此的看法；第5段作小结指出美国人正面临着更多的监视。
【答案解析】
86．[C]细节判断题。首段第l句提到泄漏电话号码的例子，第2、3句指出这一行为可能带来的麻烦，故选C。A、B本身正确但只停留在例子本身，并没有指明举例要表明的问题；D在文中没有提及。
87．[B]细节推断题。根据Acxiom和Merlin定位到第2段第2旬。该句第2个破折号说明了这两家公司的性质，指出他们买卖个人信息就像买卖玉米和牛期货证券一样，故选8。文中提到Merlin公司出售那些未登记过的电话号码，这些号码汇编来源多样，A只是利用原文个别单词设置的干扰项；文中只是说这些公司买卖个人信息的方式就像在市场买卖玉米的方式一样，故C错；D“*如窃取个人信息的犯罪行为”在文中没有提及。
88．[D]段落细节题。由第3段第2句可知A错误；由该段倒数2、3句可知人们对隐私受侵犯并没有多深的意识，故B也错：But一句指出隐私问题并不一定只涉及大机构，冒号后所列举的例子即是对此观点的支持，可见C的说法也是不正确的；末旬指出司法部控告微软公司就是利用比尔·盖茨的邮件为证据，故D正确。
89．[A]推理判断题。第4段第l句指出调查和研究证明美国人对隐私问题漠不关心，但根据后文连续几个假设问句可以推断出。美国人实际上很关住他们的隐私问题，故C错误；B只是一种表面现象；文中没有提及他们对隐私的关注是否“迷惑”，D也不对。
90．[B]观点态度题。文章首段就提到了隐私无意间的泄漏可能会带来的麻烦，接下来几段分别从个人信息被滥用、隐私问题无处不在、美国人对隐私的态度等方面说明，在当今时代，由于通信技术的发达，个人隐私的保护问题越来越复杂．因此人们对隐私问题应给予更多的重视，故选B。A、C说法太过绝对；D项也不能概述作者的观点。
Text C
【文章概要】
第l段指出作家在写作前后，作品的内容往往可能发生极大的变化。第2段承接上文指出这一有机写作过程，往往能引领作者到达自我发现的境界：并指出作家在写作完成后的种种表现。第3段指出作家如果企图通过他人的评论了解自己塑造的形象，就相当于为取悦他人而写作。第4段指出作家需不断创作和修改作品的真正原因及作家追逐名利的危害。
【答案解析】
91．[D]细节判断题。根据familiar with，confess及各选项内容定位到第l段。第l段指出，这些作家在写作前后，作品的内容往往可能发生极大的变化，其中作者提到，有一位作家就将小说的背景从克什米尔搬到了苏格兰高地。由此可见，D的表述符合文意，为本题答案。文中指出，这些作家动笔之前不会有整篇的构思，也不会按学校所教的那样列出提纲，A、B可排除。文中只说作者开始写作时可能心中已经设定了一两个角色，并没有提到会否重新塑造或改变作品的主要角色，故C应排除。
92．[D]细节推断题。第l段明确指出，作者熟悉的那些作家在写作过程中没有既定的思路，情节设置也往往根据需要或更深了解素材后才做出相应的变化和调整，这就表明，写作过程有点“混乱”，构思也不很系统化；此外，第2段提到。如果作家脑海中出现了朦胧的形象，他们会在此基础上做任意的改动。由此可见，D正确。根据文中介绍，写作过程并没有完整的构思，也无法预见，只是在写作过程中不断完善，可很快将A、B排除。此外。作家在写作的过程中会更多地了解所搜集的素材，这也与经历无关，故C也排除。
93．[C]词义推断题。第3段指出作家如果试图拉近自己与读者的距离，企图通过他人的评论了解自己塑造的形象，就相当于为取悦他人而写作。四个选项中，较能概括这种行为性质的是C。此外，undoing有“毁灭”之义，故C为本题答案。
94．[B]因果关系题。根据题干中的no resting place定位到第4段。第4段段首提到：作家的才华体现在初稿，而艺术则体现在之后不断修改的稿子中。第2句以For this reason(鉴于此)引出作家不能休息的情形。由此可见，第4段首句的内容，即作家需不断创作和修改作品：以实现由才华到艺术的转变是作家无法休息的真正原因。故8为答案，A、C、D不合文意。
95．[C]细节判断题。末段末旬指出：“当他追逐名利时，他就脱离了自我生活，脱离了对自己内心最深处世界的探索”，故C符合文意，为本题答案。选项A、D均来自文中，但与末段无关，可排除。B与原文表述“作家的才华体现在初稿，而艺术则体现在之后不断修改的稿子中”不符，可排除。
Text D
【文章概要】
本文讲述一位盲人因一次意外事故失明后如何克服困难，重新定位自己，取得人生价值的故事。第1段叙述作者因一次意外事故失明，但失明没有使他丧失对生活的信心，反而让他更懂得珍惜他所拥有的东西；第2—4段讲述他如何走出阴影，最终找到了自己的位置，并发明了滚球(ground ball)；最后一段总结他的成功经验，即在生活中不断给自己设立目标并为之而奋斗。
【答案解析】
96．[C]细节判断题。第l段最后一句指出“所失去的让我更懂得珍惜现在拥有的”，故选C。作者失明是因为他从一辆货车(box car)A摔下来，而不是因为汽车事故，故排除A；B的推断没有原文依据；文中提到他渴望重见光明。D的表述与原文有出入。
97．[B]细节判断题。the most difficult thin9是The hardest lesson的同义改写，故可定位到第3段。该段首句指出最困难的事情是“相信自己”，But所在的句子做了更具体的解释即“对自己的一种坚信，我还是我，尽管不是完美的……坚信自己可以找到一个适合自己的位置”，故选B。A太笼统；由第2段可知他的生活并不是孤单的，他还有父母、老师等的支持，故C错误；D文中没有提到。
98．[C]句意理解题。本题可用排除法。第3段第3句提到，“如果我不坚信自己，我会崩溃，变成一个坐在轮椅里的废人了，在门廊前度此余生”，由此可知C正确。
99．[D]细节判断题。根据baseball定位到倒数第2段。从该段最后两句可知棒球和那个男人的鼓励给作者以启示和鼓舞．从而发明了一种叫“滚球”的运动，故选D。该段提到作者以为那个男人是在嘲讽他，但后来在他的激励下有所启发，故A错误；B“给作者留下了深刻印象”在文中没有提及；C中的directly错误，男人的话只是给了作者启发。
100．[B]细节判断题。最后一段第2、3句表明我们要意识到自己的局限性，在开始时尝试那些遥不可及的东西只会徒劳无益,故B正确；由该段第l句和最后一句可知作者为自己不断设立目标并实现了大部分的目标，故A错误：最后一句的anyway but可知C错误；文中并没有指出他每次尝试一个目标是因为他自己的局限，故D属干随意捏造。

2011英语专四预测试题答案：part 6 WRITING
SECTION A COMPOSITION
范文：
Is Civil Servant an Ideal Job?
Every year the number of applicants for government position vacancies increases sharply. Many people believe that being a civil servant is very nice because working for the government can bring you with comparatively higher and steadier salary, better welfare, and more comfortable working conditions. While others argue that a civil servant's work often prevents one from bringing his strongpoint into full play. In my opinion, civil servant is not a wise choice for some people.
First, civil servant is not an ideal job for those people with active characters. A civil servant's work is somehow regular and boring, so an active person may not stand doing almost the same work day after day and year after year. Second, civil servant is not a good choice for those people with creative talent. These people can do much better and contribute more in a creative job, such as becoming a drawer or a composer. And I cannot imagine what a tragedy it will be if a talented dancer puts away her beloved dance shoes, or a mathematician leaves his lovely numbers, just to rush for a high-paid position of civil servants.
Civil servant positions are not suitable for some people, so please look before you leap to apply for these jobs.
SECTION B NOTE-WRITING
