Members of the city council and distinguished guests, it is my privilege to introduce to you today Mr.Robert Washington, chief of our city’s police force.He will address us on the subject of the Community Policing Program.Most of you know that Mr.Washington has a distinguished record as head of our police force for more than ten years.However, you may not know that he also holds a master’s degree in criminology and studied abroad for a year with the international police force which deals with crimes around the world.Mr.Washington first introduced the Community Policing Program 8 years ago.The idea behind the program is to get the police officers out of their cars and into our neighborhoods where they can talk directly to merchants and residents about the real dynamics of our city.These officers do more than make arrests.They try to find ways to help solve the problems that contribute to crime in the first place.Often that means hooking people up with services offered by other city agencies, such as schools, hospitals, housing, drug treatment centers.And the program seems to be working: crime is down and our citizens report that they feel more secure.Today Mr.Washington is going to tell us more about this program.Now let’s welcome Mr.Robert Washington.26.What is the purpose of the speaker’s remarks?

There are between 3000 and 6000 public languages in the world, and we must add approximately 6 billion private languages since each one of us necessarily has one.Considering these facts, the possibilities for breakdowns in communication seem infinite in number.However, we do communicate successfully from time to time.And we do learn to speak languages.But learning to speak languages seems to be a very mysterious process.For a long time, people thought that we learned a language only by imitation and association.For example, a baby touches a hot pot and starts to cry.The mother says, “Hot, hot!” And the baby, when it stops crying, imitates the mother and says, “Hot, hot!” However, Noam Chomsky, a famous expert in language, pointed out that although children do learn some words by imitation and association, they also combine words to make meaningful sentences in ways that are unique, unlearned and creative.Because young children can make sentences they have never heard before, Chomsky suggested that human infants are born with the ability to learn language.Chomsky meant that underneath all the differences between public and private languages, there is a universal language mechanism that makes it possible for us, as infants, to learn any language in the world.This theory explains the potential that human infants have for learning language.But it does not really explain how children come to use language in particular ways.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 30.Why does the speaker say there are great possibilities for communication breakdowns?
There are numerous public and private languages.Question 31.What is Chomsky’s point on the ability to learn a language?
Human infants are born with the ability to learn language and the potential to learn any language in the world.Question 32.What does Chomsky’s theory fail to explain according to the speaker?
It does not really explain how children come to use language in particular ways.四級(jí)聽(tīng)力 Passage Three
When US spacewoman Joan Higginbotham is not flying and working in space, she might be found somewhere on earth giving a speech.Higginbotham, who grew up in Chicago and became an engineer before joining NASA, that is the National Air and Space Administration, gives about a dozen speeches a year.Each speech is different because she tailors her remarks to each audience.Through interviews and E-mails, she finds out in advance her listeners' educational level and what information they want to know.On the subject of space walks, for example, audiences vary in their interests and how much complexity they can comprehend.To elementary school children, Higginbotham may discuss a problem that many kids want to know about.“How do spacemen in a spacesuit eat, drink, and go to the bathroom?” Her answer is “the spacesuit is really a small spacecraft with room for food and water-containers, and a waste-collection system.” To a high school audience, she might satisfy a curiosity that often arises in her
pre-speech interviews with students who obviously have seen many science fiction movies.“Do spacemen carry weapons in case they encounter enemies in space?” Her answer is “No”.To scientists, she might provide technical details on such topics as the design of spacesuits that protects spacemen from the deadly temperature extremes of space.Just as elaborate preparation is required for success in space, Higginbotham says that it’s important for speakers to learn as much as possible about their listeners before a speech because every audience is different.33.What did Joan Higginbotham do before joining in NASA?
34.How does Higginbotham prepare her speech on space walks?
35.What does the high school audience want to know about space travel?

Crime is increasing worldwide.There is every reason to believe the trend will continue through the next few decades.Crime rates have always been high in multi-cultural industrialized societies such as the United States.But a new phenomenon has appeared on the world scene: rapidly rising crime rates in nations that previously reported few offences.Street crimes such as robbery, rape, murder and auto theft are clearly rising, particularly in Eastern European countries, such as Hungary, and in Western European nations, such as the Untied Kingdom.What is driving this crime explosion? There are no simple answers.Still, there are certain conditions associated with rising crime.Increasing heterogeneity of population, greater cultural pluralism, higher immigration, democratization of governments, changing national borders, greater economic growth and the lack of accepted social ideas of right and wrong.These conditions are increasingly observable around the world.For instance, cultures that were previously isolated and homogenous, such as Japan, Denmark and Greece, are now facing the sort of cultural variety that has been common in America for most of its history.Multiculturalism can be a rewarding, enriching experience, but it can also lead to a clash of values.Heterogeneity in societies will be the rule in the 21st century, and failure to recognize and plan for such diversity can lead to serious crime problems.

Attracting and feeding wild birds are entertaining activities that have long been enjoyed by people all over the world.Feeding birds has become so popular that prepared feed mixtures are readily available.We feed birds for many reasons.Many pleasant hours can come from watching birds.A hobby often develops into a serious study of their habits.Accurate identification of birds is usually the first goal.But observations that an amateur bird-watcher can make are really limitless.There is, however, responsibility associated with bird feeding, including a disease hazard.Attracting numbers of birds continually to the same spot can be harmful to them, particularly species that pick food from the ground contaminated by the droppings of other birds.In winter feeding efforts are most satisfying to people and are of greatest benefit to birds.During this time when fewer natural foods are available and air temperatures are lower, extra feeding can keep a bird warm and well.Once begun, feeding should never stop during these lean months.If you start a local increase of birds, be prepared to do what may be required to eliminate hazards to those you want to befriend.A constant supply of food should be given until the cold is over and spring has come.If feeding is stopped during severe weather, birds used to relying upon the feeders must starve.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you?ve just heard.Q26 What does the speaker say about bird watching?
Q27 What does the speaker say about birds fed continually on the same spot? Q28 What does the speaker suggest we do in feeding birds in winter? Passage 2 My friend Leo makes up weak and poor excuses whenever there is something he doesn?t want to do.Just two weeks ago, he was at my house when he decided he didn?t want to go into work.He called his boss and said he had to get a new set of tires put on his truck.Then he sat down and watched TV with me.Not only had he lied but his excuse wasn?t a very convincing one.Another time, he cancelled a date with his girlfriend at the last minute telling her he had to get a new battery for his truck.She was angry and refused to go out with him again until he apologized.Last weekend, Leo offered the poorest excuse yet.He?d promised he?d help me move some furniture, from my parents? house to my new apartment.He was supposed to bring his truck over about 8 o?clock Saturday morning.I waited, and then called and left a message on his machine.About 11:30, he called and said he was sorry but he?d been getting a new set of tires put on his truck.I guess he?d forgotten he used the same excuse when he called his boss from my house.I think I need a new set of friends.I?m beginning to get tired of Leo?s excuses.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you?ve just heard.Q29 What does the speaker tell us about her friend Leo?
Q30 What did his girlfriend do when Leo canceled a date with her at the last minute? Q31 What favor did the speaker ask Leo to do last weekend? Passage 3
In Hollywood, everybody wants to be rich, famous and beautiful.Nobody wants to be old, unknown and poor.For Hollywood kids, life can be difficult because they grow up such an unreal atmosphere.Their parents are ambitious and the children are part of the parents? ambitions.Parents pay for wasteful grand parties, expensive cars and designer clothes.When every dream can come true, kids don?t learn the value of anything because they have everything.A thirteen-year-old boy, Trent Maguire, has a driver, credit cards and unlimited cash to do what he wants when he wants to.“One day, I?ll earn more than my dad!” he boasts.Parents buy care and attention for their children because they have no time to give it themselves.Amender?s mother employs a personal trainer, a bodyguard, a singing coach and a councilor to look after all her fifteen-year-old daughter?s needs.Often, there is no parent at home most days, so children decide whether to make their own meals or go out to restaurants, when to watch television or do homework.They organize their social life.They play no childhood games.They become adults before they?re ready.Hollywood has always been the city of dreams.The kids there live unreal lives where money, beauty and pleasure are the only gods.Will children around the world soon start to think the same? Or do they already?
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you?ve just heard.Q32 Why is life said to be difficult for Hollywood kids?
Q33 What does the speaker say about Trent Maguire, a thirteen-year-old boy? Q34 Why does Amender?s mother employ other people to look after her needs? Q35 What will probably have negative effects on the lives of Hollywood kids? Compound Dictation
Around 120 years ago, Ebbinghaus began his study of memory.He concentrated on studying how quickly the human mind can remember information.One result of his research is known as the total time hypothesis, which simply mean the amount you learn depends on the time you spend trying to learn it.This can be taken as our first rule of learning.Although it is usually true that studying for 4 hours is better than studying for 1, there is still the question of how to use the 4 hours.For example, is it better to study for 4 hours straight or to study for 1 hour a day for 4 days in a row? The answer, as you may have suspected, is that it is better to spread out the study times.This phenomenon through which we can learn more efficiently by dividing our practice time is known as the distribution of practice effect.Thus, our second rule of learning is this.It?s better to study fairly briefly but often.But we are not finished yet.We haven?t considered how we should study over very short periods of time.Let?s say you are trying to learn some new and rather difficult English vocabulary using a stack of cards.Should you look at the same word in rapid succession or look at the word and then have some delay before you look at it again? The answer is it is better to space up the presentations of the word you are to learn.2009年6月英語(yǔ)四級(jí)真題參考答案
Free Admission to Museums(滿分版)Nowadays, an increasing number of museums are admission-free to visitors home and abroad.The hidden reason behind this is not hard to analyze as there?s a growing awareness for the authorities regarding the urgency of popularization of culture, knowledge and history with every average person in our society.Only with free access to this live ?database?, can most people fully enjoy what museums could offer to them.However, free admission to museums might lead to some social problems as well.The most obvious problem is that it might give museums a very heavy economic burden which directly impedes the sustainable development of these organizations.As a result, our government has to work out other ways to collect funds from different channels, which might be difficult to operate or control.On the other hand, free admission attracts too many visitors, some of which might not be well-purposed and do some conscious or unconscious damage to the valuable treasures which used to be well-preserved in the museums.As a university student, I am in favor of the free-admission conduct.Yet it is proposed that some measures should be taken to solve the potential problems caused by it.For example, museums can make some regulations to guide the behavior of visitors or set some ?closed? days for museums for regular maintenance.Only in this way can free-admission to museums become a long-lasting phenomenon and have sustainable development.Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)閱讀答案

W: Oh, where are we going? M: I want to show you something.W: I know, but what is it? M: A farm.It’s just down this road.It’s a small place, but at least it would be our own.W: A farm? How can we afford to buy a farm? M: It isn’t very large, only 40 acres.We wouldn’t have to pay very much right now.W: Is there a house on the place?

Members of the city council and distinguished guests, it is my privilege to introduce to you today Mr.Robert Washington, chief of our city’s police force.He will address us on the subject of the Community Policing Program.Most of you know that Mr.Washington has a distinguished record as head of our police force for more than ten years.However, you may not know that he also holds a master’s degree in criminology and studied abroad for a year with the international police force which deals with crimes around the world.Mr.Washington first introduced the Community Policing Program 8 years ago.The idea behind the program is to get the police officers out of their cars and into our neighborhood when they can talk directly to merchants and residents about the real dynamics of our city.These officers do more than make arrests.They try to find ways to help solve the problems that contribute to crime in the first place.Often that means hooking people up with services offered by other city agencies, such as schools, hospitals, housing, drug treatment centers.And the program seems to be working: crime is down and our citizens report that they feel more secure.Today Mr.Washington is going to tell us more about this program.Now let’s welcome Mr.Robert Washington.26.What is the purpose of the speaker’s remarks?
He will address us on the subject of community policing program.27.What does the speaker say about Mr.Robert Washington?
Most of you know that Mr.Washington has a distinguished record as head of our police force for more than ten years.However, you may not know that he also holds a master’s degree in criminology and studied abroad for a year with the international police force which deals with crimes around the world.Mr.Washington first introduced the community policing program 8 years ago.28.What is the idea behind the Community Policing Program?
The idea behind the program is to get the police officers out of their cars and into our neighborhood when they can talk directly to merchants and residents about the real dynamics of our city.29.How has the Community Policing Program turned out to be?
And the program seems to be working, crime is down and our citizens report that they feel more secure.26 A)To introduce the chief of the city’s police force B)To comment on a talk by a distinguished guest C)To address the issue of community security D)To explain the functions of the city council 27 A)He has distinguished himself in city management B)He is head of the International Police Force C)He completed his higher education abroad D)He holds a master’s degree in criminology 28 A)To coordinate work among police departments B)To get police officers closer to the local people C)To help the residents in times of emergency D)To enable the police to take prompt action 29 A)Popular B)discouraging C)effective D)controversial
Passage Two
There are between 3000 and 6000 public languages in the world, and we must add approximately 6 billion private languages since each one of us necessarily has one.Considering these facts, the possibilities for breakdowns in communication seem infinite in number.However, we do communicate successfully from time to time.And we do learn to speak languages.But learning to speak languages seems to be a very mysterious process.For a long time, people thought that we learned a language only by imitation and association.For example, a baby touches a hot pot and starts to cry.The mother says, “Hot, hot!” And the baby, when it stops crying, imitates the mother and says, “Hot, hot!” However, Noam Chomsky, a famous expert in language, pointed out that although children do learn some words by imitation and association, they also combine words to make meaningful sentences in ways that are unique, unlearned and creative.Because young children can make sentences they have never heard before, Chomsky suggested that human infants are born with the ability to learn language.Chomsky meant that underneath all the differences between public and private languages, there is a universal language mechanism that makes it possible for us, as infants, to learn any language in the world.This theory explains the potential that human infants have for learning language.But it does not really explain how children come to use language in particular ways.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 30.Why does the speaker say there are great possibilities for communication breakdowns?
There are numerous public and private languages.Question 31.What is Chomsky’s point on the ability to learn a language?
Human infants are born with the ability to learn language and the potential to learn any language in the world.Question 32.What does Chomsky’s theory fail to explain according to the speaker? It does not really explain how children come to use language in particular ways.30 A)people differ greatly in their ability to communicate B)there are numerous languages in existence C)Most public languages are inherently vague D)Big gaps exist between private and public languages 31 A)it is a sign of human intelligence B)in improves with constant practice C)it is something we are born with D)it varies from person to person 32 A)how private languages are developed B)how different languages are related C)how people create their languages D)how children learn to use language

When US spacewoman Joan Higginbotham is not flying and working in space, she might be found somewhere on earth giving a speech.Higginbotham, who grew up in Chicago and became an engineer before joining NASA, that is the National Air and Space Administration, gives about a dozen speeches a year.Each speech is different because she tailors her remarks to each audience.Through interviews and E-mails, she finds out in advance her listeners educational level and what information they want to know.On the subject of space walks, for example, audiences vary in their interests and how much complexity they can comprehend.To elementary school children, Higginbotham may discuss a problem that many kids want to know about.“How do spacemen in a spacesuit eat, drink, and go to the bathroom?” Her answer is “the spacesuit is really a small spacecraft with room for food and water-containers, and a waste-collection system.” To a high school audience, she might satisfy a curiosity that often arises in her pre-speech interviews with students who obviously have seen many science fiction movies.“Do spacemen carry weapons in case they encounter enemies in space?” Her answer is “No”.To scientists, she might provide technical details on such topics as the design of spacesuits that protects spacemen from the deadly temperature extremes of space.Just as elaborate preparation is required for success in space, Higginbotham says that it’s important for speakers to learn as much as possible about their listeners before a speech because every audience is different.33.What did Joan Higginbotham do before joining in NASA? 34.How does Higginbotham prepare her speech on space walks? 35.What does the high school audience want to know about space travel? 33.A)she was a tailor B)she was an engineer C)she was an educator D)she was a public speaker 34.A)Basing them on science-fiction movies.B)Including interesting examples in them C)Adjusting them to different audiences D)Focusing on the latest progress in space science 35.A)Whether spacemen carry weapons B)How spacesuits protect spacemen C)How NASA trains its spacemen D)What spacemen cat and drink Section C 復(fù)合式聽(tīng)寫(xiě)
Crime is increasing worldwide.There is every reason to believe the(36)trend will continue through the next few decades.Crime rates have always been high in multicultural industrialized societies such as the United States.But a new(37)phenomenon has appeared on the world(38)scene-rapidly rising crime rates in nations that previously reported few(39)offenses.Street crimes such as robbery, rape,(41)murder and auto theft are clearly rising,(41)particularly in eastern European countries such as Hungary and in western European nations such as the United Kingdom.What is driving this crime(42)explosion? There are no simple answers.Still, there’re certain conditions(43)associated with rising crime.Increasing heterogeneity of populations, greater cultural pluralism, higher immigration, democratization of governments,(44)changing national borders, greater economic growth, and the lack of accepted social ideas of right and wrong.These conditions are increasing observable around the world.For instance, cultures that were previously isolated and homogeneous(同種類(lèi)的)such as Japan, Denmark, and Greece(45)are now facing the sort of cultural variety that has been common in America for most of its history.Multiculturalism can be a rewarding, enriching experience, but it can also lead to a clash of values.Heterogeneity in societies will be the rule in the 21st century, and(46)failure to recognize and plan for such diversity can lead to serious crime problems.

Section B
Passage One
Do you remember the time when people were a litter nicer and gentler with each other? I certainly do.And I feel that much of the world has somehow gotten away form that.Too often I see people rushing into elevators without giving those inside a chance out first, or never saying “Thank you” when others hold the door open for them.We get lazy.And in our laziness, we think that something, like a simple “Thank You” doesn't really matter.But it can matter very much.The fact that no matter how nicely we dress, or how beautifully we decorate we home, we can't be truly elegant without good manners because elegance and good manners always go hand in hand.In fact, I think of the good manners as a sort of hidden beauty secret.Haven't you noticed that the1
kindest, most generous people seem to keep getting prettier? It's funny how that happens.But it
does.Take the long-lost art of saying “Thank you” like wearing a little makeup or making sure
your hair is neat.Getting into the habit of saying “Thank you” can make you feel better about
yourself.Good manners add to you image while an angry face makes the best dressed person look
ugly.Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q11: What is the passage mainly about?Q12: What does the speaker say about the people of the past?Q13: According to the speaker, how could we best improve our image?Passage Two
“Go to the playground and have fun.” Parents will often say to their kids.But they should
remember playgrounds can be dangerous.Each year about 200,000 children end up in hospital
emergency rooms with playground injures.Many injures involve falls from too-high equipment
poorly maintained.Parents should make sure that the equipment in playground that
children are playing safely.Last year the national programme for the
nation's playground a grade of “C” for safety after visiting more playgrounds
nationwide.Parents should watch closely.They should always be and running
sense of security, that's when they can be creative.Q14: What is the cause of playground injures?Passage Three
But picking somebody's pocket sister and I were among the most successful
pickpocket teams in London.and theatre lobbies, airports, shopping centers,restaurants.Now we don't steal but this crime is worldwide.Here is how to protect
yourself:
babies, the elderly, all fair game.My preferred target was the lone female,the there isn't a blind side.If you want to make it even harder, use a bag with
A needs targets who are relaxed and off guard.The perfect setting is clothing
store.When customs wander among the racks, they are completely absorbed in the items they hold
up.The presence of a uniformed security guard is even better.A false sense of security makes a
pickpocket's job much simpler.Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q17: Why does the speaker say that picking somebody's pocket is an honorable job in southeast
London?
Q18: According to the speaker, who is most likely to become a victim of pickpockets?Q19: In the speaker's opinion, what is the best place for a man to keep his wallets?
Q20: What is the perfect setting for picking pockets, according to the speaker?
