PART V READING COMPREHENSION [25 MIN]
In this section there are four passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer.
Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two.
TEXT A
We have a crisis on our hands. You mean global warming? The world economy? No, the decline of reading. People are just not doing it anymore, especially the young. Whos responsible? Actually, its more like, What is responsible? The Internet, of course, and everything that comes with it – Facebook, Twitter (微博). You can write your own list.
Theres been a warning about the imminent death of literate civilization for a long time. In the 20th century, first it was the movies, then radio, then television that seemed to spell doom for the written world. None did. Reading survived; in fact it not only survived, it has flourished. The world is more literate than ever before – there are more and more readers, and more and more books.
英語專業(yè)四級真題 2
Scratchy throats, stuffy noses and body aches all spell misery, but being able to tell if the cause is a cold orflu (流感)may make a difference in how long the misery lasts.
The American Lung Association (ALA) has issued new guidelines on combating colds and the flu, and one of the keys is being able to quickly tell the two apart. That‘s because the prescription drugs available for the flu need to be taken soon after the illness sets in. As for colds, the sooner a person starts taking over-the-counter remedy, the sooner relief will come.
The common cold and the flu are both caused by viruses. More than 200 viruses can cause cold symptoms, while the flu is caused by three viruses—flu A, B and C. There is no cure for either illness, but the flu can be prevented by the flu vaccine (疫苗), which is, for most people, the best way to fight the flu, according to the ALA.
But if the flu does strike, quick action can help. Although the flu and common cold have many similarities, there are some obvious signs to look for.
Cold symptoms such as stuffy nose, runny nose and scratchy throat typically develop gradually, and adults and teens often do not get a fever. On the other hand, fever is one of the characteristic features of the flu for all ages. And in general, flu symptoms including fever and chills, sore throat and body aches come on suddenly and are more severe than cold symptoms.
The ALA notes that it may be particularly difficult to tell when infants and preschool age children have the flu. It advises parents to call the doctor if their small children have flu-like symptoms.
Both cold and flu symptoms can be eased with over-the-counter medications as well. However, children and teens with a cold or flu should not take aspirin for pain relief because of the risk of Reye syndrome (綜合癥)， a rare but serious condition of the liver and central nervous system.
There is, of course, no vaccine for the common cold. But frequent hand washing and avoiding close contact with people who have colds can reduce the likelihood of catching one.
11.According to the author, knowing the cause of the misery will help ________.
A) shorten the duration of the illness
B) the patient buy medicine over the counter
C) the patient obtain cheaper prescription drugs
D) prevent people from catching colds and the flu
12.We learn from the passage that ________.
A) one doesn‘t need to take any medicine if he has a cold or the flu
B) aspirin should not be included in over-the-counter medicines for the flu
C) delayed treatment of the flu will harm the liver and central nervous system
D) over-the-counter drugs can be taken to ease the misery caused by a cold or the flu
13.According to the passage, to combat the flu effectively, ________.
A) one should identify the virus which causes it
B) one should consult a doctor as soon as possible
C) one should take medicine upon catching the disease
D) one should remain alert when the disease is spreading
14.Which of the following symptoms will distinguish the flu from a cold?
A) A stuffy nose.
B) A high temperature.
C) A sore throat.
D) A dry cough
15.If children have flu-like symptoms, their parents ________.
A) are advised not to give them aspirin
B) should watch out for signs of Reye syndrome
C) are encouraged to take them to hospital for vaccination
D) should prevent them from mixing with people running a fever

Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.
Resilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You Endure
[A] As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old, we sometimes fantasize about how much work we can do when one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies. We race to get all our ground work done: packing, going through security, doing a last-minute work call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have that amazing work session in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with (繼續(xù)處理) the emails that have inevitably still piled up.
[B] Why should flying deplete us? We’re just sitting there doing nothing. Why can’t we be tougher, more resilient (有復原力的) and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of the goals we set for ourselves? Based on our current research, we have come to realize that the problem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes from a misconception of what it means to be resilient, and the resulting impact of overworking.
[C] We often take a militaristic, “tough” approach to resilience and determination like a Marine pulling himself through the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football player picking himself up off the ground for one more play. We believe that the longer we tough it out, the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this entire conception is scientifically inaccurate.
[D] The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to be resilient and successful. Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack of recovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems. And lack of recovery—whether by disrupting sleep with thoughts of work or having continuous cognitive arousal by watching our phones—is costing our companies $62 billion a year in lost productivity.
[E] And just because work stops, it doesn’t mean we are recovering. We “stop” work sometimes at 5pm, but then we spend the night wrestling with solutions to work problems, talking about our work over dinner, and falling asleep thinking about how much work we’ll do tomorrow. In a study just released, researchers from Norway found that 7.8% of Norwegians have become workaholics(工作狂). The scientists cite a definition of “workaholism” as “being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort in work that it impairs other important life areas.”
[F] We believe that the number of people who fit that definition includes the majority of American workers, which prompted us to begin a study of workaholism in the U.S. Our study will use a large corporate dataset from a major medical company to examine how technology extends our working hours and thus interferes with necessary cognitive recovery, resulting in huge health care costs and turnover costs for employers.
[G] The misconception of resilience is often bred from an early age. Parents trying to teach their children resilience might celebrate a high school student staying up until 3am to finish a science fair project. What a distortion of resilience! A resilient child is a well-rested one. When an exhausted student goes to school, he risks hurting everyone on the road with his impaired driving; he doesn’t have the cognitive resources to do well on his English test; he has lower self-control with his friends; and at home, he is moody with his parents. Overwork and exhaustion are the opposite of resilience and the bad habits we acquire when we’re young only magnify when we hit the workforce.
[H] As Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz have written, if you have too much time in the performance zone, you need more time in the recovery zone, otherwise you risk burnout. Gathering your resources to “try hard” requires burning energy in order to overcome your currently low arousal level. It also worsens exhaustion. Thus the more imbalanced we become due to overworking, the more value there is in activities that allow us to return to a state of balance. The value of a recovery period rises in proportion to the amount of work required of us.
[I] So how do we recover and build resilience? Most people assume that if you stop doing a task like answering emails or writing a paper, your brain will naturally recover, so that when you start again later in the day or the next morning, you’ll have your energy back. But surely everyone reading this has had times when you lie in bed for hours, unable to fall asleep because your brain is thinking about work. If you lie in bed for eight hours, you may have rested, but you can still feel exhausted the next day. That’s because rest and recovery are not the same thing.
[J] If you’re trying to build resilience at work, you need adequate internal and external recovery periods. As researchers Zijlstra, Cropley and Rydstedt write in their 2014 paper: “Internal recovery refers to the shorter periods of relaxation that take place within the frames of the work day or the work setting in the form of short scheduled or unscheduled breaks, by shifting attention or changing to other work tasks when the mental or physical resources required for the initial task are temporarily depleted or exhausted. External recovery refers to actions that take place outside of work—e.g. in the free time between the work days, and during weekends, holidays or vacations.” If after work you lie around on your bed and get irritated by political commentary on your phone or get stressed thinking about decisions about how to renovate your home, your brain has not received a break from high mental arousal states. Our brains need a rest as much as our bodies do.
[K] If you really want to build resilience, you can start by strategically stopping. Give yourself the resources to be tough by creating internal and external recovery periods. Amy Blankson describes how to strategically stop during the day by using technology to control overworking. She suggests downloading the Instant or Moment apps to see how many times you turn on your phone each day. You can also use apps like Offtime or Unplugged to create tech free zones by strategically scheduling automatic airplane modes. The average person turns on their phone 150 times every day. If every distraction took only 1 minute, that would account for 2.5 hours a day.
[L] In addition, you can take a cognitive break every 90 minutes to charge your batteries. Try to not have lunch at your desk, but instead spend time outside or with your friends—not talking about work. Take all of your paid time off, which not only gives you recovery periods, but raises your productivity and likelihood of promotion.
[M] As for us, we’ve started using our plane time as a work-free zone, and thus time to dip into the recovery phase. The results have been fantastic. We are usually tired already by the time we get on a plane, and the crowded space and unstable internet connection make work more challenging. Now, instead of swimming upstream, we relax, sleep, watch movies, or listen to music. And when we get off the plane, instead of being depleted, we feel recovered and ready to return to the performance zone.
36. It has been found that inadequate recovery often leads to poor health and accidents.
37. Mental relaxation is much needed, just as physical relaxation is.
38. Adequate rest not only helps one recover, but also increases one’s work efficiency.
39. The author always has a hectic time before taking a flight.
40. Recovery may not take place even if one seems to have stopped working.
41. It is advised that technology be used to prevent people from overworking.
42. Contrary to popular belief, rest does not equal recovery.
43. The author has come to see that his problem results from a misunderstanding of the meaning of resilience.
44. People’s distorted view about resilience may have developed from their upbringing.
45. People tend to think the more determined they are, the greater their success will be.

英語專業(yè)四級真題 4
Section A
26. [C] essential
27. [M] suspicion
28. [G] miserable
29. [A] constantly
30. [O] watching
31. [J] records
32. [K] removed
33. [F] load
34. [I] properly
35. [H] pressure
解析：
26題根據(jù)上下文得知，此處應該是說人與人之間信任的重要性。很明顯答案C. essential符合條件，B選項有可信的意思，看到此選項可能下意識地會選這個答案，但翻譯成“信任是可信的”，和主旨無關(guān)，此處還是討論信任的重要性。
29題容易選一個名詞比如records和”mistakes”并列，但是后面的選項并沒有雙引號，后面是一個動詞reminding，可以推測前面需要填入副詞來修飾reminding，根據(jù)語義“要求你做這做那”，可以推出是不斷要求，而不是properly恰當?shù)兀懦昕梢缘贸鯿onstantly.
31題，此處判斷應填名詞，有同學可能會和pressure弄混淆，但此處并不能得出公司要施加壓力。公司出于自我保護和信任問題，對于任何交易記錄都會留有根據(jù)和存根，這些都是記錄，所以答案應該是records,
Section B
36. [G] The Chetty data shows that neighborhoods and places mattered for children born in the San Jose area of the 1980s.
37. [D] The reasons kids in San Jose performed so well might seem obvious.
38. [K] The idea that those at the bottom can rise to the top is central to America's ideas about itself.
39. [B] Indeed, data suggests that this is one of the best places to grow up poor in America.
40. [J] But in today's America-a land of rising inequality
41. [I] Leaders in San Jose are determined to make sure that the city regains its status as a place where even poor kids can access the resources to succeed.
42. [E] Indeed, the streets of San Jose seem, in some ways, to embody the best of America.
43. [C] By contrast, just 4.4 percent of poor kids in Charlotte moved up to the top
44. [H] Some San Jose residents say that as inequality has grown in recent years
45. [F] But researchers aren 't sure exactly why poor kids in San Jose did so well.
解析：
38題干主旨表達的是如果該市的問題不解決將會動搖美國的根本信仰，對應K項中的America's ideas about itself.和foundational belief.可以進行匹配。
41題干第一句該市的官員，可以定位到[I]選項第一句Leaders in San Jose, 且 該句直接表明了目的，就是為了提升貧困孩子觸達成功的機會。
42題中的manifest詞匯較為生僻，但后面的some of the best features可以理解說的是關(guān)于美國最好的幾點特質(zhì)，對應到[E]選項to embody the best of America.
44 題干關(guān)鍵信息是 increases in housing prices，快速瀏覽后可以定位到[H]項多次提到如Rent，homelessness problem, housing prices等與住房相關(guān)的信息
Section C
Passage One
46. [D] They lack the necessary resources to address pupils’ mental problems.
47. [A] They have deteriorated due to budget cuts.
48. [B] At school.
49. [C] Students are more comfortable seeking counselling in school.
50. [D] A change in the conception of what schools are.
解析：
46題A和B選項屬于無中生有，C選項說的是學校在實施干預方面舉措不利，但是根據(jù)原文第二段第二句，how ill-equipped they feel 可以看出主體是老師自己而不是學校，此處是一個偷換概念的陷阱，還是要基于文章的意思判斷。
47題的C選項與原文第三段最后一句意義相反;B和D選項也是無中生有，A選項中出現(xiàn)了一個生詞，但最后出現(xiàn)的budgets cuts還是可以幫助我們定位到第三段第二句。
49. A和B均屬無中生有，D選項則偷換了概念，原文是指學生們更愿意在校內(nèi)進行心理輔導而不是外面的心理咨詢，D選項則替換成了校外活動。
Passage Two
51. [A] To illustrate people’s peculiar shopping behavior.
52. [D] To make customers believe they are getting a bargain.
53. [B] The E conomist’s promotional strategy works.
54. [C] To trap customers into buying the more pricey item.
55. [B] By comparing it with other choices.
解析：
51題的BD選項都屬于捏造的'信息，C選項具有一定迷惑性，但描述的是表面的信息，并不是作者舉例的真實目的，此處挑選飲料本質(zhì)是想要闡述一種特定購物行為。
52題討論的是中罐蘇打水定價的理由，A選項吸引更多人去買很明顯不對，因為中罐蘇打水重量減半價格卻很貴，同理B項也不符合，C項本文并未提及，屬于生造的信息。所以中罐蘇打是為了讓顧客以同樣價格買到更大罐的飲料從而覺得占到便宜。
53 題A選項看似符合常理，但并不是Dan的研究成果內(nèi)容，屬于張冠李戴;C項文中并沒有提及是賣的最好的; 最后的D項也偷換了概念，很有迷惑性，研究結(jié)果的意思是如果沒有紙質(zhì)加電子版這個選項的話，大部分人還是會選擇更便宜的電子版，但和紙質(zhì)版對比，同樣的價格還可以獲得電子版，所以人們會更傾向選擇print plus digital，而不是digital。
