[5] HMR is a meal replacement diet that can be done on your own at home or under medical supervision、Instead of made-at-home meals, dieters can order low-calorie milk, soups, nutrition bars and multigrain cereal、The U、S、News reviewers say [6]the plus side to the HMR diet is its quick-start option and the convenience of having meals delivered to you、The down side is “the milk lacks variety,” and it’s tough to eat out while on this diet、

[7] “A common misunderstanding is that losing weight quickly is not heal thy not sustainable, and will just lead to future weight re-gain,” wrote Carol Addy, the chief medical officer at HMR, in a release、But she says, to the contrary, “numerous studies demonstrate that following a lifestyle change program which promotes fast initial weight loss can result in better long-term success、”

Delegates at a summit in Zambia are expected to set 18 years old as the lowest legal age for marriage across the contient、Marriage before age 18 is already against the law in most African countries、

Yet the UN says more then 125 million African women and girls alive today were married before their 18th birthday、Experts say most were given to men in traditional or religious unions in violation of the law、

[2]African Union charwoman Nkosozana Dlamini Zuma says local culture that undervalues girls and women is to blame、Poverty and lack of education are also responsible, experts say、

1、What do we learn from the United Nation’s report?

2、What is the reason for child marriage in Africa?

Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item、

[3] Waste products from a popular alcoholic drink could be used in the future to make biofuel、Researchers say the new fuel, based on whisky, could reduce demand for oil、They say using less oil could cut pollution that studies have linked to climate change、

Scotland is the largest producer of whisky in the world、And a Scottish professor has found how to take the waste products from distilling whisky and turn them into a form of alcohol called biobutanol、Biobutanol can be used as a fuel、Whisky comes from grain, such as corn and wheat、

Martin Tangney is director of the Biofuel Research Centre at Napier University in Edinburgh、He says less than 10 percent of what comes out can be considered whisky、[4]The rest is mainly one of two unwanted products: strong beer and wheat、Tangney says the two byproducts can be produced to create a new material: biobutanol、

3、What is the news report mainly about?

4、What are the unwanted products in making whisky?

Questions 5 and 7 will be based on the following news item、

For several years, human resources director Pete Tapaskar says it’s been a challenge to fill all the jobs at his suburban Chicago-based technology company、[5] Getting high skilled people is still a challenge、Elizabeth Sue is principal policy analyst for the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning, who studies Chicago’s recent immigration trends、She said “They are slowly moving into the south, especially Texas, and Atlanta, Georgia、[6] What we are seeing right now is a substantially decreased total of international in-migrations、Prior to the recession we were between 50 and 60 thousand most years、Now, since 2010, we’ve been at about 23- to 24-thousand international

in-migrations on a net basis、” [6] She says that dramatic drop-as much as two-thirds some years-contributes to Chicago’s overall still population growth、

Tapaskar says there are many reasons why immigrants choose to live in Southern states instead of Chicago、[7] “The environment there is ideal for starting a business, could be the taxes there are low, and employers are getting a lot of benefits from the state government、”

But Tapaskar says one thing that could bring new immigrants to Chicago is increasing the number of work visas that would attract the highly skilled tech workers his business needs、

5、What is the problem for the technology companies in Chicago?

6、What do we learn about international in-migrations in Chicago?

7、Why do immigrants choose southern states instead of Chicago?

英语专业四级TEM4听力听写原文1993—2013

英语专业四级考试1993年——203年听写原文 1993 Package Holidays Package holidays, covering a two weeks' stay in an attractive place, are increasingly popular. Once you get to the airport, it is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination．Everything is laid on for you．There is, in fact, no reason for you to bother to arrange anything yourselves．You make friends and have a good time. But there is very little chance that you will really get to know the local people．This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost your entire time traveling．Of course, there are carefully planned stops for you to visit historic buildings and monuments. You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient. But time is always short．There is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to spend you holiday with a group of people you have never met before． (1994) The American Family The American family unit is changing. There used to be mainly two types of families, the extended and the nuclear. The former included mother, father, children, and some other relatives such as grandparents, living in the same house or nearby. Then as the economy progressed from agricultural to industrial, people began moving to different parts of the country in order to search for job opportunities. These moves split up the extended family. The nuclear family consisting of only parents and children has therefore become far more wide spread. Today’s family, however, can be composed of diverse co mbinations. With the divorce rate nearly one in two, there's an increase in single-parent homes—a father or mother living with one or more children. Blended families occur when divorced men and women remarry and combine the children from former marriages into a new family. On the other hand, there is an increase in childless couples while one in rive Americans lives alone. (1995) Unidentified Flying Objects There are many explanations for why UFOs visit the Earth. / The most popular one is that they maybe visitors from other planets./ To fly such aircraft, their builders must develop different forms of aviation,/because they seem to fly much faster than normal aircraft./ The UFOs, it is believed, must contain scientists/ from other planets who are studying life on earth./ It is even believed that several such aircraft may have landed on earth/ and the space visitors may be living amongst us./ But there are also less fantastic explanations available./ Although some sightings of UFOs are difficult to explain, most can be explained quite easily./ In many cases the observers might have made a mistake./ They might have seen a weather balloon or an aircraft./ Or the light they saw in the sky might have been light from the ground,/ reflected on to the clouds./ However, the exact cause of many sightings still remained a mystery.

2017年6月大学英语四级考试真题（一）听力原文【News Report 1】 One of Google's self-driving cars crashed into a bus in California last month. There were no injuries. It is not the first time one of Google's famed self-driving cars has been involved in a crash, but it may be the first time it has caused one. On February 14th the self-driving car, travelling at 2mph (3km/h), pulled out in front of a public bus going 15mph (24km/h). The man in the Google vehicle reported that he assumed the bus would slow down to let the car out, and so he did not switch to the manual mode. In a statement, Google said: "We clearly bear some responsibility,?because if our car hadn't moved, there wouldn't have been a crash." That said, our test driver believed the bus was going to slow or stop to allow us to merge into the traffic, and that there would be sufficient space to do that." The company's self-driving cars have done well over a million
