2012年6月英语四级考试真题答案解析

Part Ⅰ Writing (30minutes)

参考作文:

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 con sumer’s awareness that excessive packaging doesn’t equal to high quality and advocate packaging recycling.

【解析】

本次作文的话题是“过度包装”，话题不断新，考生应该都比较熟悉。写好本篇作文的关键在于紧跟题目所列提纲：现象——原因——看法和建议，确定相应的写作结构。重点分析产生此现象的原因有哪些，把最重要的两三点罗列下来。最后，根据分析出的原因提供相应的建议。

范文首段开门见山，首先一句话总结如今社会上过度包装现象盛行，而后举出一些实例补充说明。

第二段重点从公司和消费者两方面论述产生过度包装的原因。公司方面是为了吸引顾客，刺激消费，赢取更多的利润；消费者方面是认为包装越精美，质量越好这种错误的消费意识。

接下来作者表明自己的看法，认为过度包装会导致很多问题：稀缺资源的流失；水，能源的过度消耗以及产生不必要的垃圾场等。

最后一段作者针对原因提出了一些解决方案。第一方面，建立法律规章制度来约束企业的过度包装行为。第二方面，必须让消费者认识到过度包装不等同于高质量，并提倡包装物的回收利用。

本文条理清晰，论述充分，语言使用规范得当，如：to name but a few，the first reason is that…，on the other hand，in my point of view，to solve the problem，first，in addition 等。

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)(15minutes)

本文主要讲述了社交网络给警察带来的不良影响，以及警察局为应对这一问题所采取的措施。第1-5通过举例引出本文讨论的话题：社交网络对警察来说是一把双刃剑。第1-2段主要讲特雷·伊考诺米迪警员因“脸谱”上的个人资料被曝光被调到内勤.第3-5段主要说明互联网虽然是执法机构

可以使用的有价值的工具，但也会给警员带来不利影响。影响：网上不慎重的言行给自己带来麻烦；网上发布的帖子可能会危及警员的安全；辩护律师在社交网站搜索有助于反驳警员证词的相关证据。第6 -11段讲警察署制定相关规章制度，对警员的网上言行进行规范化监管。第12 -17段主要说明法院、学者以及警员对限制警员在社交网络发表言论这一做法的态度。法院：支持限制警员网上言论的做法。学者戴维．L．哈德森：规定所涉及的范围过于宽泛，有争议性。警员协会会长乔伊·斯伽拉：警局无权规定警员下班后的言行；这一做法把展示好行为与坏行为的能力都剥夺了。第18段-29段主要举例说明警察局对这一问题的看法以及采取的措施。阿尔伯克基市警察局：需要迅速处理这一问题；专门聘请一名监察警官。印第安纳州警署：教育新入职警员在社交网络要谨言慎行。密歇根州绍斯菲尔德市警察局：严格执行有关社交媒体的法规；检查求职者在社交网络上的言论。

1.【线索词】television station; postingofTreyEconomidy's

【定位处】第二段

【解析】选[D]。该段提到，…一家当地电视台发现了他的“脸谱”个人网页。

Economidy警员因此被调到内勤工作，而阿尔伯克基市警察局也于上月宣布了一项新政策，对警员的社交网站使用加以管理。[D]中提至0的control officers' use of the Internet与该段提到的govern officers' use of social networking sites 对应，故答案为[D]。

2.【线索词】law enforcement experts; careless posting

【定位处】第四段末句

【解析】选[A]。题干中的According to law enforcement experts与该句提到的law enforcement experts say对应，careless posting为原文信息重现，[A] expose an officer to danger是对can endanger an officer's safety的同义转述，故答案为[A]。

[D]是针对第三段末句设的干扰项，不是执法专家的观点，故排除。

3．【线索词】ChiefMarshall;twoofficers;his department

【定位处l第八段

【解析】选[C]。该段首句提到，马歇尔局长说在他的警察局里曾发生过几起embarrassing episodes，接下来具体介绍了两位警员在网上发布的令人尴尬的帖子，最后提到Both were disciplined，由此可知，这两位警员因为发布令人尴尬的帖子受到了处罚，[C]中的They were punished是对Both were disciplined同义转述，故答案为[C]。

4.【线索词】social media policies; not allowed online

【定位处】第十段末句

【解析】选[B]。题干中的According to most social media policies与该句提到的by most policies对应，is not allowed online与is also prohibited对应，Posting pictures of crime scenes与Posting crime scene photos对应，故答案为[B]。由第十一段可知，[A]是Albuquerque's policy禁止的行为；[C]是a recent policy by the Police Department in Pueblo禁止的行为。

5．【线索词】one famous case in the year 2004

【定位处】第十三段末句

【解析】选[C]。该句提到，在2004年的一宗著名诉讼案中，最高法院维持了解雇一名警员的原判，该警员自拍了一段脱掉警服的视频并在eBay网上的“仅限成人”区销售这段视频。由此可知，这名警员因为把自拍的脱掉警服的视频放在网上销售而被解雇，故答案为[C]。

6.【线索词】Joey Sigala's opinion; Albuquerque policy

【定位处】第十六段

【解析】选[D]。该段提到，…乔伊?斯伽拉(Joey Sigala)说，虽然警察局有权决定警员在上班时穿什么和说什么，但是“我相信他们没有权利告诉我们在下班之后该做些什么。”由此可知，乔伊?斯伽拉认为控制人们下班后的言行是不合理的，故答案为[D]。[B]是针对They're taking away the ability to demonstrate the good，as well as the bad设的干扰项。

7．【线索词】ChiefRay Schultz；urgent to deal with

【定位处】倒数第十一段首句

【解析】选[B]。题干中的According to...Schultz与该句提到的Chief Schultz said对应，urgent to deal with...post online与get a handle on...quickly对应，[B] 中的It may与说明原因的because从句中的this has the potential to对应，put officers...against them与adversely affect you in the courtroom对应，故答案为[B]。

[D]是针对该段adding后的that从句设的干扰项。

8．【线索词】The Indiana State Police；act

【定位处】倒数第九段的前两句

【解析】media coverage。通过分析句子结构可知，本空所填词（短语）为题干中强调句所强调的部分，在句中作主语。该段首句提到，Media coverage is often what prompts a department into action，第二句举了The Indiana State Police的例子进行解释说明。题干中的makes a police department decide to act与prompts a department into action对应，故prompts...into action的主语Media coverage即为本题答案，因为本空位于句中，所以Media的首字母需小写。

9．【线索词】Chris Pestow；an e-mail

【定位处】倒数第六段

【解析】have benefited considerably。题干中的Pestow said in an e-mail为原文信息重现，if虚拟条件句与该段提到的A written policy...prior to my unfortunate misstep对应：he would...与would have benefited me considerably对应。题干只是将原文的宾语me转化为了主语he，故文中的have benefited considerably即为本题答案。

10. 【线索词】ChiefThomas；post the goat online

【定位处】倒数第五段第二句和倒数第四段

【解析】inappropriate。空前的it was still表明，本空应填一形容词（短语）。题干中的the officer to picture and post the goat online与倒数第五段第二句提到的an officer photographed goats...then posted the photos对应。倒数第四段说明了Chief Thomas对此的看法，题干中的harmless与看法中提到的did not harmanybody，it was与it's对应，故it's后的inappropriate即为本题答案。

Conversation 1

W：Good evening, and welcome to this week’s business world. The program for and about business people. Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over and established bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store?

M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business going, I’ll do it. I had m

y heart set on it and I didn’t let anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I’d lov e being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want。

W:You mean you don’t keep regular hours?

M: Well, the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early。

W: Had you hired any employees to work with you yet?

M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It’s great because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers.

W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business。

Q19.what is the woman doing?

Conversation 2

W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think。

M: Yes, but I’m not quite su re about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that?

W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant, but steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it’s still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain’s machine tools are from the Basque country. As for paper processing, there’s still a little. But it’s no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?

M: Yes, thanks。

W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there’s a lo t of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region。

M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?

W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts. So there used to be transport p roblems, now though there are new train links and better roads, but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK? Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory, we’ll see this in more detail, so we’ll come back to this question, OK?

M: OK, right。

W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education. In general, it’s very good and improving。

Question 23-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard。

23. What does the woman say about the steel-related manufacturing in the region?

24. What problems hinder the region’s development?

25. What will the speakers discuss later?

23. B) It remains a major part of industrial activity.

24. C) Lack of resources.

25. C) Possible locations for a new factory

Section B

Passage one

I first met Joe Ganz when we were both nine years old, which is probably the only reason he’s one of my best friends. If I had first met Joe as a freshman in high school we wouldn’t even have had the chance to get to know each other. Joe is a day student, but I am a boarding student. We haven’t been in same classes, sports or extra-curricular activities. Nonetheless, I spend nearly every weekend at his house and we talk on the phone every night. This is not to say that we would not have been compatible if we had first met in our freshman year. Rather, we would not have been likely to spend enough time getting to know each other due to the lack of immediately visible mutual interests. In fact, to be honest, I struggle even now to think of things we have in common.

But maybe that’s what makes us enjoy each other’s company so much. When I look at my friendship with Joe, I wonder how many people I’ve known whom I never disliked, but simply didn’t take the time to get to know. Thanks to Joe, I have realized how little basis there is for the social divisions that exist in every community. Since this realization, I have begun to make an even more determined effort to find friends in unexpected people and places。

Q:

26: Why does the speaker say Joe Ganz became one of his best friends?

27: Where does the speaker spend most of his weekends?

28: What has the speaker learned from his friendship with Joe?

答案

Q26: B. They had known each other since childhood

Q27: B. At Joe’s house

Q28: A. Social divisions will break down if people get to know each other。

Passage two

It was a bad night for Lewis. His research in the neighboring town has taken longer than he expected. It was late and he was very tired when he drove home. He turned into his building’s parking lot, but all the spaces were full. He drove back out onto the street, looking for a parking space. The first block was full. The next block was almost empty. Lewis didn’t see a “no parking” sign, but he has expected that his parking were allowed there. Most the spaces would be filled. Then he saw a small parking lot with two free spaces. He was so glad to see them that he didn’t even think to read the sign by the entrance. He drove in, parked and hurried home to go to bed. The next morning he went back to the lot to get his car. It was gone. He ran home and telephoned the city police to say that his car had been stolen. It took the police only a minute to tell him what had happened: his car had been on a private lot. It had been taken away by the police. Lewis had to take a taxi to visit the city garage far from the city center. He had to pay a fee of 40 dollars to get his car back. In addition, he got a parking ticket, his first one ever in Greenville。

Q:

29: Where did Lewis intend to park his car when he came back from work one night?

30: What did Lewis think had happened to his car the next morning?

31: Where did Lewis finally get his car back?

答案

Q29: A. In his building’s parking lot

Q30: A. It had been stolen by someone

Q31: B. In the city garage

Passage three

Well, to pick up where we left off last time, I believe we agreed that creativity is a mysterious idea. It was those things we all recognize when we see it, but we don’t really understand what it is. We seem to feel that some people are naturally creative, but we don’t know how they got that way. Is creativity a natural gift like good looks, or is it something that can be acquired like knowledge? Perhaps if we analyze the creative process carefully, we might get some insight into what it is and how it might work in our lives. The creative process has always been accepted as the source of all important work in the arts, but we should not think the creativity plays a role only in the arts. Every major scientific discovery began with someone imagining the world to look differently from the way others saw it. And this is what creativity is all about -- imagining the world in a new way. And despite what you may believe about the limits of your own creative imaginations, we all have the potential to imagine the world in an absolutely new way. In fact, you are born with it. It is your birth right as a human being. And what’s more, you use it every day, almost every moment of your life. Your creative imagination is what you use to make sense of your experiences. You’re your creative mind that gets meaning from chaos of experiences and brings order to your world。

32. What did the speaker most probably discuss last time?

33. What is the widely accepted idea about the creative process?

34. What leads to major scientific discoveries according to the speaker?

35. What does the speaker imply about the creative process?

答案

Q32: D. The mysteriousness of creativity

Q33: A. It is the source of all artistic work

Q34: D. Creative imagination

Q35: A. It is part of everyday life

Students have been complaining more and more about stolen property. Radios, cell phones , bicycles, pocket (36) calculators, and books have all been reported stolen. Are there enough campus police to do the job? There are 20 officers in the campus security division. Their job is to (37) handle crime, accidents, lost and found (38) items, and traffic problems on campus. More than half of their time is spent directing traffic and writing parking tickets. (39) Responding promptly to accidents and other (40) emergencies is important, but it is their smallest job. Dealing with crime takes up the rest of their time. Very (41) rarely did any violent crimes actually (42) occur. In the last five years there have been no (43) murders, seven robberies, and about sixty other violent attacks, most of these involving fights at parties. On the other hand, (44) there have been hundreds of thefts and cases of deliberate damaging of public property, which usually involves breaking windows or lights, or writing on walls. The thefts are not the carefully planned burglaries that you see in movies. (45)Things get stolen when it is just easy to steal them because they are left lying around unwatched. Do we really need more police? Hiring more campus police would cost money, possibly making our tuition go up again.(46) A better way to solve this problem might be for all of us to be more careful with our things.
