第一篇：大學英語四級作文真題解析

大學英語四級作文真題解析

四級的題型包括論說文、說明文、記敘文。2017年6月份我們考的是考應用文，賣的是二手車、二手電腦，12月份考的是文字當中的A或者B的形式，到底是工作還是考研，到底是國企還是外企。2017年12月考到的是大家關心的醫鬧問題，同學感覺到這個問題比較傷感。醫鬧怎么說?我們可以翻成“醫療的一些問題、爭端或者沖突”等等。這是第一套題。第二套題，講的是所謂的老師和學生之間的關系如何營造。第三套題，父母和孩子的關系。

大家發現這道題從審題的難度來講基本長沒有什么難度，基本上是初中、小學詞匯，題干不會出現什么問題。“How to”題型已經考過三次，重點在如何(how)，也就是說我們重點是方法。從內容上來講，但是發現這三道考題之間的關系是大家非常熟悉的話題，比說醫鬧關系，醫生和患者之間的關系，老師和學生的關系，這是教育的話題，再比如家長和孩子之間的關系等等，所以從題材到內容來說都是四級考生已經必備的知識要素。

我們的四六級的寫作滿分是15分，包括兩部分，第一是獎勵分，第二是基本分的部分。

首先，獎勵分是卷面的問題，大家都喜歡美的事物。也就是說要保持卷面清晰，給老師留下好的第一印象。第二是基本分。這里包括三部分。

第一是文章的結構。

我們在寫作文的時候分三個層次，總分總的原則，第一自然段我們一定要進行引題部分，第二是分析，第三是總結。第一段把醫患關系，家長和孩子關系，學生和老師的關系等等，這些核心的主題詞引導出來。

第二是分析。根據不同文章的要求，不同文章的題材進行分析的過程。重點在方法、建議的措施上。所以這個文章中間分析的環節，重點講的是建議、措施和方法。

第三是總結。注意要加上所謂邏輯關系詞。比如三個方法，或者是三個建議的措施，三個原因，三個危害等等。

這是英語考試，大家一定要想清楚我們每句話首先保證的是準確，其次保證的是漂亮。如何保證準確漂亮?第一個是詞的運用，我們在剛才的文章當中，是否出現了“重要important”這個單詞，你可以換一些高級的詞匯essential，當你把這些常見的單詞進行高級化的替換以后，你的分值就會提高。再說一下句型的文化。好的文章，不僅是句子準確，還要考慮句子的高級化。比如說你是否運用了非謂語動詞等高級語法。

On Excessive Packaging

Nowadays the phenomena of excessive packaging of goods are prevailing in our society: clothes swathed in tissue paper, placed in cardboard box and finally wrapped in well-designed plastic bags, imported bottles of grape wine packed in wooden boxes, fruits put in hand-woven baskets, to name but a few.There are several causes of excessive packaging.The first reason is that a large number of companies believe that they can attract customers’ attention and stimulate their purchasing desire by over-packaging their goods, thus gaining more profits.On the other hand, quite a number of consumers mistakenly hold that the more delicate the package is, the better the quality will be, thus encouraging excessive packaging.In my point of view, excessive packaging has disastrous consequences, including the loss of precious resources, excessive consumption of water and energy, and unnecessary extraction of scarce land for landfill.To solve the problem, it’s necessary to take the following measures.First, laws and regulations must be made to restrict excessive packaging of companies.In addition, we need to raise consumer’s awareness that excessive packaging doesn’t equal to high quality and advocate packaging recycling.【解析】

本次作文的話題是“過度包裝”，話題不斷新，考生應該都比較熟悉。寫好本篇作文的關鍵在于緊跟題目所列提綱：現象——原因——看法和建議，確定相應的寫作結構。重點分析產生此現象的原因有哪些，把最重要的兩三點羅列下來。最后，根據分析出的原因提供相應的建議。

范文首段開門見山，首先一句話總結如今社會上過度包裝現象盛行，而后舉出一些實例補充說明。

第二段重點從公司和消費者兩方面論述產生過度包裝的原因。公司方面是為了吸引顧客，刺激消費，贏取更多的利潤；消費者方面是認為包裝越精美，質量越好這種錯誤的消費意識。

接下來作者表明自己的看法，認為過度包裝會導致很多問題：稀缺資源的流失；水，能源的過度消耗以及產生不必要的垃圾場等。

Directions: You're allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will by commenting on the humorous saying, “Quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world.I’ve done it hundreds of time.”You'd write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.Outlines:

1.堅強的意志是成功的重要保證。

2.意志堅定的人才能完成偉大的使命，3.學生也是這樣，不刻苦學習，終究不會成為有用之才

Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will

With the coming of a brand new era full of opportunities and innovations, the issue of how to succeed has aroused growing concern in the public.Although there are thousands of ways to success, in my opinion, a strong will is the important guarantee of success, just as a proverb says, “Where there is a will there is a way”.The long history of human being has proved that only those who have a strong will can fulfill great mission and achieve success at last.Nothing succeeds without a strong will.Take Mao Zedong, one of the great founders of the People’s Republic of China, as an example.If without the strong will to save Chinese people from heavy disaster and build a prosperous, democratic and civilized new country, how could he drive Japanese out of China and become such a famous leader in the world?

If we as a student want to be successful in the future, the strong will on hardworking is the most important.Nowadays, we have been entering an information age with rapid update of knowledge.Who firstly seizes and keeps up with the development of advanced information can succeeds at last.Therefore, studying hard to get more knowledge and improve our ability to handle complicated problems as possible is the only way to lay the solid foundation of future success.Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will

“Where there is a will, there is way” is an old proverb which almost everyone knows, but not all understand it so well.Actually, it means that if you are really resolved to do something, no matter how difficult it might be, never give up.In fact, strong will is a kind of good quality which successful people should own.A great man is always one who has a firm resolution and an inflexible spirit.One will never succeed all his life without a firm will to get the final victory.As a rule, great tasks are accomplished by men of strong will.For example, Dr.Sun Yatsen, the founder of the Republic of China, set the Chinese people free from the Manchurian rule through a long period of hard struggle.Many of his attempts failed and many of his followers were killed, but he had an inflexible spirit and stuck to his cause.Finally, he made the revolution of 1911 a success.The same is true of men in all walks of life.It is quite obvious that there is nothing difficult in the world, if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end.That stands to reason.So as for students like us, we should have a good attitude towards failure.Facing with difficulties and failures, keep heads up and never give up.Besides, we should make full preparation, though strong will help us overcome the difficulties, it is not for person who has no preparation.2011年6月大學英語四級考試

Doing Shopping Online

With the development of the Internet, shopping is no longer a tiring thing.Just click your mouse to choose the articles you like, and the purchase is done.You don't even have to step out of the room.It seems all easy and quick.However, people's opinions vary on this trend.Some believe that on line shopping is time and money saving.With plentiful selection options, they can buy whatever they like at any time convenient.Still others insist that mis-purchasing alone is annoying enough, not to mention the credibility of the sellers and the safety of their accounts.In my opinion, the convenience and excitement of on line shopping is beyond all doubts.In the meantime, we must always bear in mind that certain traps do exist, so we'd better make sure the sellers are trustworthy before buying.In addition, we should also guard ourselves from the potential hackers who might steal our account information.文章點評：

這是一篇“中等偏上”的學生作文。本文先對網購熱潮進行簡介，引出全篇；接著對網絡購物的正反兩方面進行對比；最后提出自己的看法結束全篇。整體看思路清晰，邏輯嚴密，行文流暢，用語較為地道。

下面說一下這篇文章的有待提高之處：

1.文章結構上，能看得出該同學試圖采用議論文的“三段式”（提出問題、分析問題、解決問題）。但是，以“With the development of the Internet”為開首語，有些落入俗套，有硬套模板的嫌疑。稍加注意，應該能寫出更好的句子。

2.微觀語言點方面，有些語句稍顯啰嗦，比如With plentiful selection options? 簡化成With plentiful selections? 更好，意思沒有絲毫減損，表達力反而增強許多。

本次四級作文探討的是最近的熱點話題之一——互聯網網購。目前網購的風靡程度是眾所周知，因此，考生對于該話題還是比較熟悉的。但是，比較特殊的是，題干所列出的要求的是考生從一個客觀的角度來闡述該話題，而不是簡單陳述自己的意見。所以，考生應當審清楚題，在寫作時不僅僅要列出網購的優點，還必須給出相應的缺點。

按照四級作文的要求，考生在第一段時應該總述現象并引出話題；

第二段考生應當從正反兩方面來論述網購，分別鋪陳其優缺點；關于優點，網購的優點很多，考生可擇其最突出顯著的方面來闡述，比如說網購可以節省很多時間；網購可以節省很多成本開支等；其次，缺點方面考生可以把重心放在誠信方面；為了不至于跟優點相比，缺點方面太輕，考生可以考慮稍微提一下其他缺點，比如說與傳統購物相比，網購少去了很多砍價的樂趣；

第三點要求考生對于第二段列出的缺點給出自己的建議。此處我們可以根據第二段列出的缺點方面給出相應的防范應對措施。

整篇作文話題比較好展開，難度不大，只要考生審好題，列出相應點，相信作文不會他是難題。

Due Attention Should Be Given to Spelling

3.為了改變這種狀況，我認為….Nowadays, students attach little importance to the spelling of words in the process of English study.This phenomenon greatly influences students’ writing and brings on worries among teachers.There are possibly three reasons contributing to this phenomenon.First, exam-oriented education makes students pay little attention to spelling.Second, some teachers should also be responsible for it because they don’t emphasize the importance of spelling during teaching.Last but not least, some students are too lazy to recite words.Since spelling is one of the most important factors in English study, due attention should be given to it.As I see it, first, exams should be modified to add spelling into it.Then, schools should establish effective mechanisms to help teachers as well as students to realize the importance.Finally, students should be interested in word spelling.Only in this way, can we surely realize the importance of spelling and make improvement.2009年12月大學英語四級作文

Recently, with the idea of making and maintaining “a green earth” being the focus of the society, “green campus” has become a more and more popular concept in universities or colleges, which, undoubtedly, will bring us an ever-lasting benefit to both our campus and our society.The concept of “green campus” does not only mean a green environment but also refers to an environmental sense in people’s mind.Campus plays a crucial role in educating the young generation and the consciousness of “green campus” will definitely produce a profound effect on students’ various environmental protection activities after their graduation.What’s more, the young generation is under the burden of severe environmental pollution and there are many problems waiting for them to solve.To make “green campus” come true, firstly, it is necessary to work out effective principles for the development of sustainable and recyclable campus.Secondly, it calls for people’s awareness of the serious pollution around us and actual action to reduce the waste.Last but not least, it is necessary to strengthen the ties between campus and society, so as to ensure that “green campus” can work smoothly with the co-effort of the whole society.2008年12月四級作文

In our daily life, most people use disposable plastic bags for shopping and other purposes.However, the excessive use of disposable plastic bags has resulted in a great damage to our environment.The problems brought by disposable plastic bags are various, ranging from environment to people's health.In the first place, it takes years for the plastic products to decompose and be absorbed by the soil.Secondly, the use of disposable plastic bags will indirectly do harm to people's health.Sometimes people buy hot food packed into disposable plastic bags for saving time to wash their dining utensils.Yet they are not informed of the chemical material the bags release in high temperature.Therefore, they are also eating the poisonous stuff while enjoying the tasty food.It's enlightening and significant that our government has banned the use of disposable plastic bags officially, and people will be charged for the use of such bags.This action is reducing the consumption of bags to a great extent.It is a great measure for the sustainable development of our earth.滿分作文實錄

Education, which gets children ready for challenges in the future, is of vital importance to them.Nowadays, more and more parents tend to send their kids to art classes to make sure that they will maintain an advantageous position in the increasingly fierce competition, which has given rise to a wide range of controversy.Some people support this idea, arguing that it will give the children a well-rounded education.In contrast, those who criticize the idea contend that it will do harm to the children rather than benefit them.From my point of view, the above-mentioned issue should be approached through a thorough analysis of the specific situation at hand.On one handclasses.Firstly, art classes can provide the kids with an effective way to relax themselves after a whole day’s tedious study.By listening to music or drawing some pictures, they can relax themselvesand return to study with renewed vigor.Secondly, children will have more opportunities to learn a different kind of culture if they take art classes.By being exposed to art, they are able to broaden their horizons.As a matter of fact, many subjects are interrelated(at)such a tight level that the study of one subject may help that of another.For example, the practice of drawing pictures may promote children’s understanding of geometry and math.Thirdly, children will have more chance to make different kinds of friends by taking art classes, which is very important to their mental health.On the other hand, parents should never force their children to take art classes if they show no interest or talent in art.Children may feel depressed or even refuse to take other classes if they are forced to learn art lessons against their own will.Only when they are indeed interested in art can we

In conclusion, whether parents should send their children to art classes should be determined by children’s interests.If they like, we may let them take the classes.But if they have no interest, parents should respect their will.(368 words)

Free Admission to Museums?

2018年12月大學英語四級真題作文解析

來源：文都教育

2018年12月大學英語四級考試剛剛結束，相信同學們對咱們的寫作話題還記憶猶新。這次的四級作文共有三個話題，且都是要求圍繞著“挑戰”進行書寫。整體難度較去年來看，難度不大。接下來，文都四六級輔導老師將四級的三個作文給大家進行一下剖析。【四級寫作話題】

四級寫作話題有三個。如下：

1.畢業后創業面臨的挑戰（the challenges of starting a career after graduation）2.出國留學面臨的挑戰（the challenges of studying abroad）

3.在大城市生活面臨的挑戰（the challenges of living in a big city）以上三個話題中的單詞較簡單，雖然大部分學生應該還是能讀懂題目，但是還是有個別學生錯把挑戰（challenges）當做了改變（changes），把事業（career）看錯成癌癥（cancer），這樣的話就跑題了。【四級寫作話題思路】 話題1：

畢業后有的學生會選擇創業，在創業方面面臨的挑戰分為以下三點。第一，缺乏資金。第二，缺乏經驗。第三，如果威脅到現有企業的利益，會遭到現有企業的阻撓。話題2：

出國留學面臨的挑戰，可以從以下三方面進行闡述。首先，對于外國的文化或者風俗不了解，無法融入當地的生活或者學習群體。其次，語言障礙導致無法與人正常溝通。最后，如果有什么問題或者意外發生，就會感到孤立無援。話題3：

在大城市生活主要面臨的挑戰，可以從以下三方面進行著手。首先，大城市的房價過高，大部分人負擔不起，每月租房住，日常花銷大。然后，大城市公司要求高，員工工作壓力大。最后，在大城市生活，如果身邊沒有朋友，會很孤獨。【四級寫作話題可用句型】 開頭：

1With the rapid growth of......, more and more people choose to.......Nowadays, it is commonly ○believed that.......will provides them with many opportunities, but I wonder that people who........are facing more challenges.2Against the backdrop of an era characterized with opportunities, the living pressures of people ○has been improved.Nowadays, every individual who.......faces various challenges.中間:

1There are numerous challenges of......, and I would explore only three challenges here.○The first challenge is that......The second one is that the......The last one is that......2As far as I am concerned, there are three main challenges of.......○First of all,......In addition,......At last but not least,......結尾：

1Based on the points discussed above, we may reasonably draw the conclusion that there are ○many challenges of......Dealing with the challenges is not different from conquering a great mountain;both of us require determination, courage, and perseverance.2 All in all, there is no doubt that people who......are in front of many challenges.It is the ○critical time that the government/the society/ we took effective actions to cope with these challenges.這三個話題都是圍繞著大學生的生活，學生對畢業后創業、出國留學以及大城市的生活還是非常的了解的，所以在內容方面應該有很多點可以寫，上述的話題思路僅供參考。如果在上述模板之上加入自己的觀點，這樣就更完美了。

Nothing Scucceeds Without a Strong Willby commenting on the humorous saying, “Quitting smoking is the eaiest thing in the world.I'va done it hundreds of times.” You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.Part I Writing

Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will

Nothing runs smoothly in our life.To achieve things successfully, a strong will is essential.Life is like a Marathon.Many people can’t get to the terminal.This is not because they are lack of vitality but because their will of success is not strong enough.To take quitting smoking as an example, some regard it as a piece of cake.They make up their minds to quit it in the morning, but in the evening they feel that the smell of cigarettes is tempting.Their throats are sore, their mouths are thirsty, and their hands are shaking.After the painful mental struggle, they tell themselves that “One cigarette is enough.Just take one, and the next day I will quit it.” By doing this, they surrender to their weak will.In the end, they have quitted smoking “a hundred times”, but in no time they succeed.Just like quitting smoking, nothing succeeds without a strong will.To be successful in one’s life, a strong will means that you know where you go and you will persist on the road you choose.Undoubtedly success belongs to those who overcome their weak will and who hang in there until the last minute 文章點評：

本文屬于話題類作文，只看題目 “Nothing Succeeds without a strong will”考生會覺得比較抽象，難以下手。細看題目說明中給出了提示，要求考生結合戒煙屢次不成功的幽默引語對該話題進行分析闡述。

總體來說，這是一篇“中等偏上”的考生作文。本文先點題指出“堅強意志”的重要性；第二段從反面舉例闡述——具體描寫了意志不堅定者的心理活動，闡述為什么會戒煙失敗；最后從戒煙延伸到生活中的其他事情，并復述堅強意志的內涵，點題收尾。

總體上來看，文章思路清晰，采用了生動的比喻和形象的心理描寫，語言流暢，用語地道。

但一些重復表達（如第二段和第三段中的weak will）顯得單調，可用shaky ones, weak-willed persons，the strong-willed等靈活表達。在備考中，多積累不同表達，相信會寫出更生動的文章。

在論述上，敘述略顯羅嗦。第二段心理描寫過多，雖然流暢生動，但卻使這篇考場作文超過了規定字數，反而成為失分點，這一點要引以為戒。

Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will

As we have read from above, quitting-smoking seems easy, but in reality it is rarely achieved.There is something provoking and interesting in this paradox, just because sword does not wear the stone as dripping water does.The ability to do something over and over again in a short time may imply its easiness, but in a long run, a lifetime maybe, things turn out to be quite the opposite.Also, as is often the case, one may have obtained all the tools and opportunities to achieve something, but in the end they still fail due to the will shortage.So how could we avoid the dilemma? Here is the prime condition of success: will and perseverance.Concentrate you energy, thought and mind exclusively on the business in which you are engaged, hang on in there and be patient, for, as Emerson put it, no one can cheat you out of your ultimate success but yourself.點評：

本次四級作文探討的話題是成功與毅力之間的關系，話題不算新，一般考生對此都比較熟悉，所以對考生來說難度不大。寫好這篇作文，需要抓住兩點，一是緊跟題目要求，即對上述幽默性的話語做出評論，二是在評論的基礎上要亮出自己的觀點。

范文開頭第一句即一針見血地對上述幽默性話語做出總結性概括，即戒煙看似簡單實則很難，隨后指出該話語本質上是一個悖論，并且以一個“水滴石穿”的俗語來指出困難所在，這句也是本文的一個亮點，體現作者在西方俗語方面豐富的知識儲備。

第二段作者則進一步深入分析該話語，指出做某事在短期看來很容易，長期來看，恰恰相反，人們做事的結果也因此總是失敗，原因則在最后一句點出：缺乏毅力。

第三段作者進一步給出了自己的觀點，告訴大家如何避免陷入這種兩難境地：首要條件即需要堅強的意志和長期的堅持。最后再以艾默生的一句名言 “沒人能夠騙你遠離你最終的成功，除非你自己承認失敗”來總結全文，切中主題，鏗鏘有力。

快速閱讀真題 及答案

What is Integrity?

“Integrity” is defined as “adherence to moral and ethical principles;honesty.” The key to integrity is consistency--not only setting high personal standards for oneself(honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness)but also living up to those standards each day.One who by and follows moral and ethical standards even when making life's hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation.What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed.But a lapse of integrity also affects our relationships with others.Trust is essential in any important relationship, whether personal or professional.Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals.Risky Business

We are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision-making process has been undermined by stress or peer pressure.The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did, and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in the future.Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems.We must learn to recognize risks, because if we can't see the risks we're taking, we can't make responsible choices.To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts.For example, one who doesn't know the rules about plagiarism may accidentally use words or ideas without giving proper credit, or one who fails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and cite sources as required.But the fact that such a violation is “unintentional” does not excuse the misconduct.Ignorance is not a defense.“But Everybody Does It”

Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts, but manage to fool themselves about the risks they're taking by using excuses: “Everyone else does it,” “I'm not hurting anyone,” or “I really need this grade.” Excuses can get very elaborate: “I know I'm looking at another's exam, even though I'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not cheating because I'm just checking my answers, not copying.” We must be honest about our actions, and avoid excuses.If we fool ourselves into believing we're not doing anything wrong, we can't see the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions.To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if your actions were public, and anyone could be watching over your shoulder.Would you feel proud or ashamed of your actions? If you'd rather hide your actions, that's a good indication that you're rationalizing it to yourself.Evaluating Risks

To decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future as well as right now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself.Those who take risks they later regret usually focus on immediate benefits(“what's in it for me”), and simply haven't considered what might go wrong.The consequences of getting caught are serious, and may include a “0” on a test or assignment;an “F” in the class;Suspension or Dismissal from school;transcript notation;and a tarnished reputation.In fact, when you break a rule or law, you lose control over your life, and give others the power to impose punishment: you have no control over what that punishment might be.This is an extremely precarious and vulnerable position.There may be some matters of life and death, or highest principle, which might justify such a risk, but there aren't many things that fall in this category.Getting Away With It--Or Not

Those who don't get caught pay an even higher price.A cheater doesn't learn from the test, depriving him/herself of an education.Cheating undermines confidence and independence: the cheater is a fraud, and knows that without dishonesty, he/she would have failed.Cheating destroys self-esteem and integrity, leaving the cheater ashamed, guilty, and afraid of getting caught.Worst of all, a cheater who doesn't get caught the first time usually cheats again, not only because he/she is farther behind, but also because it seems “easier.” This slippery slope of eroding ethics and bigger risks leads only to disaster.Eventually, the cheater gets caught, and the later he/she gets caught, the worse the consequences.Students have been dismissed from school because they didn't get this simple message: Honesty is the ONLY policy that works.Cheating Hurts Others, Too

Cheaters often feel invisible, as if their actions “don't count” and don't really hurt anyone.But individual choices have a profound cumulative effect.Cheating can spread like a disease, and a cheater can encourage others just by being seen from across the room.Recent statistics suggest 30% or more of college students cheat.If a class is graded on a curve, cheating hurts others' grades.Even if there is no curve, cheating “poisons” the classroom, and others may feel pressured to join in.(“If I don't cheat, I can't compete with those who do.”)Cheating also has a destructive impact on teachers.The real reward of good teaching is seeing students learn, but a cheater says, “I'm not interested in what you're trying to teach;all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of the effect on others.” The and destructive attack on the quality of your education.Finally, cheating can hurt the reputation of the University, and harm those who worked hard for their degree.Why Integrity Matters

If cheating becomes the norm, then we are in big trouble.We must rely on the honesty and good faith of others every day.If not, we couldn't put money in the bank, buy food, clothing, or medicine from others, drive across a bridge, get on a plane, go to the dentist--the list is endless.There are many examples of the vast harm that is caused when individuals forget or ignore the effect their dishonesty can have.The savings and loan scandal, the stock market and junk bond swindles, and, of course, Watergate, have undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity of political and economic leaders and society as a whole.Such incidents take a tremendous toll on our nation's economy and our individual well-being.For example, but for the savings and loan debacle, there might be funds available to reduce the national debt and pay for education.In sum, we all have a common stake in our school, our community, and our society.Our actions do matter.It is essential that we act with integrity in order to build the kind of world in which we want to live.Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)1.A person of integrity not only sets high moral and ethical standards but also _______.A)sticks to them in their daily life B)makes them known to others C)understands their true values D)sees that others also follow them 2.What role does integrity play in personal and professional relationships?

Passage One

While Gail Obcamp, an American artist was giving a speech on the art of Japanese brush painting to an audience that included visitors from Japan, she was confused to see that many of her Japanese listeners have their eyes closed.Were they tuned off because an American had the nerve to instruct Japanese in their own art form or they deliberately tried to signal their rejection of her? Obcamp later found out that her listeners were not being disrespectful.Japanese listeners sometimes closed their eyes to enhance concentration.Her listeners were showing their respect for her by chewing on her words.Some day you may be either a speaker or a listener in a situation involving people from other countries or members of minority group in North America.Learning how different cultures signal respect can help you avoid misunderstandings.Here are some examples.In the deaf culture of North America, many listeners show applause not by clapping their hands but by waving them in the air.In some cultures, both overseas and in some minority groups in North America, listeners are considered disrespectful if they look directly at the speaker.Respect is shown by looking in the general direction but avoiding direct eye contact.In some countries, whistling by listeners is a sign of approval while in other courtiers it is a form of insult.Questions:

26, What did Obcamp’s speech focus on?

27, Why do Japanese listeners sometimes close their eyes while listening to a speech?

28, What does the speaker try to explain? Passage Two

Chris is in charge of purchasing and maintaining equipment in his Division at Taxlong Company.He is soon going to have an evaluation interview with his supervisor and the personnel director to discuss the work he has done in the past year.Salary, promotion and plans for the coming year will also be discussed at the meeting.Chris has made several changes for his Division in the past year.First, he bought new equipment for one of the departments.He has been particularly happy about the new equipment because many of the employees have told him how much it has helped them.Along with improving the equipment, Chris began a program to train employees to use equipment better and do simple maintenance themselves.The training saved time for the employees and money for the company.Unfortunately, one serious problem developed during the year.Two employees the Chris hired were stealing, and he had to fire them.Chris knows that a new job for a purchasing and maintenance manager for the whole company will be open in a few months, and he would like to be promoted to the job.Chris knows, however, that someone else wants that new job, too.Kim is in charge of purchasing and maintenance in another Division of the company.She has also made several changes over the year.Chris knows that his boss likes Kim’s work, and he expects that his work will be compared with hers.Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.29.What is Chris’s main responsibility at Taxlong Company?

30.What problem did Chris encounter in his Division?

31.What does Chris hope for in the near future?

32.What do we learn about Kim from the passage? Passage Three

Proverbs, sometimes called sayings, are examples of folk wisdom.They are little lessons which older people of a culture pass down to the younger people to teach them about life.Many proverbs remind people of the values that are important in the culture.Values teach people how to act, what is right, and what is wrong.Because the values of each culture are different, understanding the values of another culture helps explain how people think and act.Understanding your own culture values is important too.If you can accept that people from other cultures act according to their values, not yours, getting along with them will be much easier.Many proverbs are very old.So some of the values they teach may not be as important in the culture as they once were.For example, Americans today do not pay much attention to the proverb “Haste makes waste”, because patience is not important to them.But if you know about past values, it helps you to understand the present and many of the older values are still strong today.Benjamin Franklin, a famous American diplomat, writer and scientist, died in 1790, but his proverb “Time is money” is taken more seriously by Americans of today than ever before.A study of proverbs from around the world shows that some values are shared by many cultures.In many cases though, the same idea is expressed differently.Questions 33-35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33.Why are proverbs so important?

34.According to the speaker what happens to some proverbs with the passage of time?

What do we learn from the study of proverbs from around the world? Section C

Compound Dictation

Our lives are woven together.As much as I enjoy my own company, I no longer imagine I can get through a single day much less all my life completely on my own.Even if I am on vacation in the mountains, I am eating food someone else has grown, living in a house someone else has built, wearing clothes someone else has sewn from cloth woven by others, using electricity someone else is distributing to my house.Evidence of interdependence is everywhere;we are on this journey together.As I was growing up, I remember being carefully taught that independence not interdependence was everything.“Make your own way”,” Stand on your own two feet” or my mother’s favorite remark when I was face-to-face with consequences of some action: Now that you’ve made your bed, lie on it.Total independence is a dominant thing in our culture.I imagine that what my parents were trying to teach me was to take responsibilities for my actions and my choices.But the teaching was shaped by our cultural imagines.And instead, I grew up believing that I was supposed to be totally independent and consequently became very reluctant to ask for help.I would do almost anything not to be a burden, and not require any help from anybody.聽力答案：11.^^ask the staff 12.b ^^ TV program13.^^^^^^ missing her flight 14.at a restaurant 15^^^^of the woman 16.^^^^alow-rent apartment 17.^^^otpic more focuse 18,they didnot 19,he likes 20,the cold 21 depressing 22they work 23,french 24,careers 25,its26 the art of 27to enhance 28how listeners 29 directing 30twoofhis employee 31advancement 32sheis competing 33The help 34.Their wording 35.Some 36company 37single 38completely39vacation 40built 41ecectricity42 evidence 43journey

本次聽力考試長對話第一篇難度略低與以往水平，話題關于瑞典的天氣和生活方式，對話以man speaker提供信息為主，woman speaker穿針引線，所以大家集中精力聽man speaker的話即可。

文章大意：對話先談論了瑞典的季節，冬天異常寒冷，低至零下26度，但是室內非常溫暖，所以瑞典人到了英國會抱怨室內溫度低。接下來討論了不同季節的日光長度，圣誕節期間每天只有1小時光照，而五月到七月，直到午夜還有還有日照，所以瑞典享有“The Land of Mid-night Sun”的美譽。瑞典人夏季很早上班，下午2，3點就下班，享受漫長的夏季夜晚。他們的生活方式用原文中的一句話來概述就是“They like to work hard, but play hard too.”。

出題點有4處，全部為細節題，第19題：“What do we learn about the man from the conversation?”，答案出現在對話開篇。第20題: “What do Swedish people complain about when they visit England in winter?”，答案出現在文中，瑞典人拜訪英國會抱怨英國人的室內很冷。第21題“How does the man describe the short hour of daylight around Christmas in Sweden？”，man speaker 的評論是 “a bit depressing ”.第22題“What does the man say about the Swedish people?”，瑞典人工作努力，也很會享受盛會。

考場上，大家只要能follow the man speaker’s track，抓住細節，就一定會找出答案。Wish all of you good luck!

本次四級第二篇長對話難度不高，話題是考生很熟悉的校園學習類。從對話的語氣中可以猜出是學妹在請教學長關于工作所需的教育背景。

考查長對話一般是看兩人談話會有幾個話題，換一個話題就會相應地換一個問題。這篇考試也不例外，三個問題分別是1.男人的專業？2.男人在中學的工作？3.男人上諾丁漢大學的原因？1和3尤其好辨別，相信同學們做對基本的2道題是肯定沒有問題的。

抓住了“話題轉換有考題”的技巧后，再運用我們課上反復強調的“聽到什么選什么”的技巧，那答案就呼之欲出了。比如1應該是French, 2 是career work, 3是campus environment.再加上我們上課教的學習場景詞匯中的高頻詞degree, secondary school, administration, literature, campus, major。如果考生在考場上能及時激活，那文章的大意一定非常明了。

Passage 2 難度適中，話題是升職，屬于商務工作場景，大意是Chris 作為公司的采購部的職員希望得到提升，但是遇到了同是采購部的競爭對手Kim，Kim受到領導的喜歡而且表現也不錯。原文描述了Chris和Kim在公司中的表現。涉及到的常考詞匯有：purchase, maintenance, interview，salary, promotion, equipment, employee, responsibility。這些詞匯在聽力商務場景中講過，要求大家必背的。在閱讀課上商務類文章中也講過數次。接下來我們看看具體的題目和答案所在處。Question 29: what is Chris’s main responsibility at Texalon company? 我們課堂上說篇章一般開頭30秒會有一題的答案，這題的答案在第一句話。

Chris is in charge of purchasing and maintaining equipment in his division at Texalon company.In charge 管理和負責的意思。Purchase采購，maintenance 維修。Question 30: what problem did Chris encounter in his division? Unfortunately, one serious problem develops during the year.Two employees that Chris hired were stealing and he had to fire them.此題答案在文章中間部分，關鍵是problem 這個詞。Question 31: what does Chris hope for in the near future? He would like to be promoted to the job.Promote 升職。Would like to 想要。Question 32: what do we learn about Kim from the passage? 原文：Chris knows, however, someone else wants the new job too.Kim is in charge of purchasing and maintenance in another division of the company.Kim這個女人也是負責采購和維修的，她希望得到這個工作。

[范文]Can Money Buy Happiness?

Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers.Some people think that money is the source of happiness.With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys.With money, one can do whatever he likes.So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on.Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all evil.Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law.A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money.And in the Western countries, there is nothing that can’t be bought by money.Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money.But even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness.Happiness is not something that can be measured by money.It is a state of mind.One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems.Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t buy happiness.1996年1月作文題目及范文

The two-day weekend has brought a lot of benefits to college students.It not only offers us more time to get rid of tiredness and have a good rest, but also gives us more chances to take up some hobbies, such as fishing, reading, or gardening.From these activities we can learn many things outside the classroom, which will add to our knowledge.Despite the convenience it brings us, the two-day weekend has also given rise to quite a few problems.The most serious one is that the weekdays are filled with more lesson, sometimes too many.Because our classes are limited to Monday through Friday, we have to take more lessons each day than in the past.This leaves us little time to catch our breath during the weekdays.In order to benefit most from the two-day weekend, I have decided to make a good plan for the two-day weekend.Of course I should take this chance to relax.But during

[范文]Global Shortage of Fresh Water

Many people believe that the world’s supply of fresh water will never be used up.They think that fresh water comes from such a variety of sources that it is always sufficient for use.Such an opinion leads to a shocking waste of water.As a matter of fact, the earth is short of fresh water.Furthermore, with the rapid growth of the world’s population, the rising demand for water by industry, and the serious pollution of our surroundings, the world is facing the danger of running out of fresh water.Actually, in some big cities, fresh water cannot meet the daily needs.Therefore, to find new ways to save water is an urgent task.First, we should pass strict laws to control any waste of water.Second, scientists must work even harder to purify sea water and polluted water, and try to find substitutes to reduce the use of fresh water.1997年1月作文題目及范文

The famous saying “Practice makes perfect” is widely accepted today.It means if we practice unfamiliar things again and again, we’ll be able to perform it perfectly.The practice of learning English is a good example.We are not living in an English speaking country.So, in order to learn it well, we need extra practice, such as reading English books, going to English corners, or communicating with foreigners.Only sitting at the desk cannot lead to the mastery of English.As another example, if we want to be skilled in using the computer, we also need to practice using it.Some children become little experts in computer, just because they play with it everyday.On the contrary, if we just stick to books, we will still feel confused when using computers.Judging from the evidence offered, we might safely draw the conclusion that practice makes perfect.1998年1月大學英語四級作文題目及范文

[范文]Don’t Hesitate to Say “No”

In our daily life, there are many occasions on which we should not hesitate to refuse when asked for help.For one thing, when it is beyond our ability, we should give a direct reply “no”.For another, we the thing we are asked for is unreasonable or even illegal, we should say “no” without hesitation.However, it is not the case in our real life.Many people prefer to say “yes” when they should say “no”.Some are afraid to lose their face, since they think refusal means their inability.Some people are afraid to offend their acquaintances’ face, such as their friends, relatives and so on.In fact, doing so is quite harmful.If you agree to do the things beyond your ability, the result will only be worse.The other might as well have asked another person who can help.And if you agree to do the unreasonable or even the illegal favors, such as cheating in the exam, you are in fact not helping the other but hurting him.You yourself will get into trouble too.1999年6月作文題目及范文

2.有人認為應當博覽群書

3.我的看法

[范文]Reading Selectively Or Extensively?

Some people think when we read we should read selectively.That is to say, we should select some books we are interested in and ignore the others.Reading selectively can help us concentrate our limited time and attention on those selected books.Others think we should read extensively.No matter what kind of book it is, we should look it over.We should read various kinds of books, whether we are interested in them or not.They maintain that reading extensively can help to enlarge our view and grasp the general knowledge in different fields.In my opinion, the two reading ways have their roles respectively in our reading.However, the disadvantages of each methods are easy to see.If we only read the books we select or prefer, the framework of our knowledge may not be complete.Our knowledge would be rather limited.And if we read without selection, we may not have so much time and energy to be specialized in one particular field.Therefore, the combination of the two methods is more reasonable.2000年1月作文題目及范文

Several years ago new tuition fee policy was put into practice and college students were asked to pay a certain sum of money.And now, all the students, no matter what subjects they are engaged in, must pay for tuition.There are many ways for a student to finance his college education.Most students ask their parents to pay the tuition fee and pay for their books, accommodation and other cost.A student can also apply for the scholarship.Most universities set up scholarship to offer money to the poor students who do well in entrance exams and reward those who do well in entrance exams and reward those who work well at university.A student can also apply for the low-interest loans.In addition to the above, taking part-time jobs is also a common way for a college student to get money to pay part of his tuition and fees.So far as I’m concerned, I’d prefer earning the scholarship.This means I must study hard and be a top student, which has always been my goal.After all, the task of a student is to study.And in addition to solving my financial problems, getting the scholarship can also prove my ability and is good for my future.2001年1月作文題目及范文

Nowadays, in an ever tighter job market, great importance has been attached to an interview by both the employer and the applicant.The interview, so to speak, has become indispensable for getting a satisfactory job.On the one hand, the interviewer can take advantage of the occasion to learn about the candidates, such as their work experiences, education and their personalities, so as to pick out the right person for the company.On the other hand, the interviewee can make use of the opportunity to get to know the job he is going to take up, the salary, the working conditions and many other things about the job he is interested in.Therefore, the job interview is very important to a job-hunter.But how can one succeed in it? Firstly of all, the interviewee must pay attention to his or her appearance.The first impression is always where we start.Get dressed properly and neatly.Secondly, good manners are equally important.Don’t be too proud, and neither too timid.Just be courteous.Thirdly, the interviewee must demonstrate his aptitude and skills for the job and his knowledge about eh job-related areas.Be confident.Last but not the least, the interviewee ought to be honest about his or her personal as well as academic background, for honesty is the best policy.To sum up, the job interview is indeed important, but there is no need to be nervous.As long as the interviewee has the ability for the job, with careful preparation and a fairly confident and honest performance, his or her success can be ensured.2002年1月作文題目及范文

Dear Mr.President，I’m very lucky to attend this world-famous university, but I’m afraid I’m not content with the canteen service on campus.Firstly, the quality of the dishes should be improved.Undoubtedly, there are a lot of delicious dishes, but all the year round, they are the same.More and more students are complaining about eating the same food each day.So I think the most urgent problem is variety.Secondly, the price is a bit too high.Many of us hope that the canteen can provide us with not only delicious but also cheaper food.Finally, the environment is so noisy that we can’t enjoy our meals in good mood.I suggest that there be some soft music to help us relax.These suggestions are not just of my own, but also of may other students.We hope our respectable president will pay attention to our suggestions.By the way, the canteen workers are very patient and always smiling.So I think

if our university offers them better conditions, they will offer us better service.Best wishes，Li Ming

[范文]It Pays to Be Honest

Although honesty is believed to be a virtue, there are still dishonest people in our society.For example, some businessmen sell fake product to their consumers;some students cheat in the exams.Dishonest people are short-sighted.Those who sell fake products may make money at first, but consumers won’t buy their products any more.As a result, they will lose their fortune or even be sent to prison.By contrast, honest people gain a lot.Those who always tell truth or keep to their promise not only let others trust them but gain respect from other people as well.Such persons are sure to have a lot of good friends.Because they are trustable and respectable, everyone is eager to make friends with them, Besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a good job.Generally speaking, every employer wants his employees to be honest.So we can say that anyone who is honest will be paid back later.In a word, honesty wins trust, respect and honor.So it is important that we should be honest.2003年6月作文題目及范文

My name is Liming.I am studying at college.A week ago I saw a traffic accident , which is still vivid in my mind.It was at about 9:00 on Saturday morning, June 15th, when I went out of the university to visit a friend of mine at another university.I was walking leisurely on the sidewalk when I heard a loud crash of two vehicles just at the T-junction about 10 meters away.Two taxis crashed together.It was a traffic accident.I went up and found that the two taxis were badly damaged.Both hoofs were out of shape.One door of a car was knocked off and lying on the road.One driver was blooding and another was shut in the taxi.Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car.One man was calling to the traffic policeman station.A lot of cars were jammed on the road.From the stopping track on the road, it is clear that the two taxis were driving too fast.But it is just one of the reasons.In my opinion, the taxi drivers are

eager to take more passengers and make a little more money.On the other hand, both drivers don’t show concern for one another.Both of them wanted to run in front of another.Therefore, the accident is inevitable.So far, we should let the drivers keep it in their mind that a little slower, a little safer.Taking care of other’s lives means taking care of your own life.2004年1月大學英語四級作文題目及范文

[參考作文]Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?

[參看范文一]

One can always find visitors taking pictures and enjoying the scenery in

university compus.During the May Day Holiday, National Day Holiday, summer and winter vacations, many University campuses become popular tourist sites.In my opinion, university campus should be open to tourists.In fact, there are many royal gardens and parks, all of them obviously better than the scenery in the Universities.Why do you think people prefer visiting here with their children? That is because it is a dream goal for many Chinese parents and young ambitious students.Besides this, as more tourists come to visit universities, these universities can widen their influence as well and they can also make some profit from the tourism.In a word, I think the university compus should be open to the tourists

[參看范文二]

In university compus, especially in some famous ones, such as Peking University and Qinghua University, tourists are always seen looking around everywhere.Although most of them visit with hope and repect, I think university compus should not be open to tourists.First, tourists' visit will disturb the normal teaching.They always get into teaching buildings, libraries and so on.They will make noise and throw rubbish everywhere.Second, some tourists trample grass to take photos, and sculpture on trees to leave words.These will affect the environment of the compus badly.The university is a holy place for study, not for tourism.So It should not be open.2006年6月作文及范文

The Spring Festival Evening Get-Together has been held in China for over two decades, which seems to have been an indispensable company during the traditional New Year’s Eve for a great number of people, who appear to be accustomed to enjoying the sights and sounds of a brilliant feast, while gathering with their beloved family.However, an increasing number of people have voiced different opinions towards it, as more diverse life styles have emerged nowadays.Some prefer to go to a fancy restaurant to enjoy a gourmet meal;some intend to go on a vacation to an incredibly exotic destination for a novel and thorough relaxation;others may have even more post-modern notions, like go bunging, hiking, or cycling for entirely new different experiences, forgetting all about the Spring Festival.To me, the Evening Get-Together is supposed to be here to stay.It may not remain a must for all people, but it can bring us a strong sense of festivity and serve as an alternative among the variety of holiday activities.Besides, with such a gathering, family members will have a perfect opportunity to enjoy more fun and happiness, for nowadays most people are so engaged in their daily businesses that they can rarely find any extra time to stay with their family, which, if not properly adjusted, might add further to the already worsening situation of the values of Chinese families.2007年12月作文及范文

范文一

Nowadays, there usually exists a wide selection of electives for college students to choose from.However, students have quite different plans for their future so they always end up learning courses based on their own ideas.Some students may choose to learn a certain course in order to obtain an extra certificate for their job hunting after graduation.Because they assume that some more knowledge could ensure more chances of winning in finding a good job.Others may have their choice made just for fun.They tend to hold the idea that college life could be more colorful if they could widen their knowledge through elective courses.As far as I’m concerned, I’m inclined to choose electives based on both the value of the courses and the interest of my own.范文二

Nowadays many college students prefer to have electives in their spare time because the courses can offer a variety of skills and abundant knowledge apart from what they learn in the daily courses.There are many factors that may account for it, and the following are the most conspicuous aspects.To start with, many students want to get another degree besides their own, so that they can have more competence when they seek a job.Furthermore, as for me, I don’t care about degree or job, I just want to obtain some necessary skills to make my college life worthwhile.What I’m concerned most is how to own more skills that may be necessary for my future.Finally, some students want to learn anything that is different from what they are learning now.The science students, for example, want to know about Shakespeare while the art students want to tell how a vehicle works and how to deal with it when it breaks down.So, they can all get what they think is useful to their college life.On the whole, the phenomenon is one of the results of multi-demand of the employment market.There is still a long way for us to improve the elective itself, but as a student myself, I find it rewarding and interesting.范文三

What Electives To Choose

With the reform of Chinese higher education, more and more colleges and universities put emphasis on nurturing students’ abilities.As a result, elective courses are available not only for excellent academic performers but also for students about the average level.Certainly, students have different reasons to choose their own electives.For some, practical skills are the essence of college education, and therefore, courses on computer science, marketing, and finance are highly preferred.On the other hand, others may hold the idea of liberal education and electives concerning literature, history, and philosophy are the most welcome.Take me as an example: being a disciple of free education, I stand for the notion that university is not a place for survival skills, but a palace of knowledge and critical reasoning.Although my major is chemistry, the electives I attend most frequently are English literature, an Introduction to Classic Music, and Different Schools of Western Painting.They really widen my horizon.Free admission to museums

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.2010年

Nowadays, there is a growing concern over such a phenomenon, that is, some parents take care of almost everything concerned with their children, including study, work, marriage.Some parents believe that this is love, however, it is only to destroy

children’s independence thoroughly.For the future of the next generation, more efforts should be made by parents to help their children to be independent.The fundamental one is to cultivate the awareness, namely, the importance and necessity of being independent, which is supposed to begin from childhood.Children should be taught that no one can be stronger and more helpful than themselves in this world.The quality of independence is so indispensable for us that parents had better act as a tutor, not a dictator.And only with parents’ trust, can the next generation accumulate confidence step by step.In recent days, we have to face a problem-----A, which is becoming more and more serious.--------(說明A的現狀)．

Online Shopping

Nowadays, with the rapid development of information technology, online shopping has gained great popularity among more and more web users.For example, it is fashionable for youngsters to purchase daily essentials, such as books, clothes, electrical equipment, on some famous website, like Taobao, EBay and Alibaba.Undoubtedly speaking, online shopping has many advantages.Firstly, compared with traditional shopping, it’s very convenient.What you need to do is just clicking your mouse and waiting instead of going out by foot or driving.Secondly, more choices than real store are another attraction to customers.However, in spite of convenience and more choices of online shopping, we cannot turn a blind eye to its disadvantages.Obviously, quality problem is its first disadvantage.It’s common that articles aren’t so good just as they are described online that customers always buy fake commodities.In addition, it’s troublesome and annoying for many customers to make a change when they are not satisfied with what they bought online.As a college student, I like online shopping but I expected that effective measures should be taken to make it better。Specifically speaking, government should work out strict regulations and rules to prevent unfaithful and unlawful activities of online shop owners.Only by this way can online shopping become really safe and attract an increasing number of customers.
