第一篇

Most people have no idea of the hard work and worry that goes into the collecting of those fascinating birds and animals that they pay to see in the zoo. One of the questions that is always asked of me is (1) I became an animal collector in the first (2). The answer is that I have always been interested in animals and zoos. According to my parents, the first word I was able to say with any (3) was not the conventional ―mamma‖ or ―daddy‖, (4) the word ―zoo‖, which I would (5) over and over ag ain with a shrill (6) until someone, in groups to (7) me up, would take me to the zoo. When I (8) a little older, we lived in Greece and I had a great (9) of pets, ranging from owls to seahorses, and I spent all my spare time (10) the countryside in search of fresh specimens to (11) to my collection of pets. (12) on I went for a year to the City Zoo, as a student (13) , to get experience of the large animals, such as lions, bears, bison and ostriches, (14) were not easy to keep at home. When I left, I (15) had enough money of my own to be able to (16) my first trip and I have been going (17) ever since then. Though a collector's job is not an easy one and is full of (18), it is certainly a job which will appeal (19) all those who love animals and (20) .

第一篇解析:

1.【答案】A 根据下一句及随后的内容,作者讲的是怎样成为动物爱好者的(从小就喜欢动物),应当选择A.how。

2.【答案】C in the first place是固定短语,意思是―首先‖。此句意思是:别人经常问到的问题之一,是当初我是如何爱上动物的。

3.【答案】A 这句话的意思是:作者在呀呀学语之时,最早发清楚的音是―zoo‖(动物园),而不是―妈妈‖,―爸爸‖,因此,应选clarity―清晰‖。填入其他选项emotion (感情),sentiment(多愁善感),affection(友爱)不合逻辑。

4.【答案】B but在此处连接另一个句子(it was the word―zoo‖,―it was‖被省略),表示转折,意为―而是‖,Except, except for, but for的用法接近,表示―除了……‖。

5.【答案】D 根据后面的over and over again,应选―repeat‖

6.【答案】C 小孩想去动物园,便不停地发出尖叫声,故选―voice‖。A shrill voice与scream的意思接近。volume(音量);noise(噪音);pitch(音调)均不合要求。

7.【答案】B shut sb.up是指让某人住口,为了让孩子停止尖叫,只好带他去动物园。

8.【答案】A 根据后面主句的时态,此处只能用一般过去时。

9.【答案】C a great many后直接跟可数名词的复数形式;a great / large amount of后跟不可数名词;只有a great /large number of后可以跟可数名词的复数形式。

10.【答案】D living后必须接介词in,意为―居住‖;cultivating耕种;reclaiming开垦;只有exploring 有探察的意思。

11.【答案】C add to相当于increase,增加。其余选项后面都不接to。

12.【答案】A later on为固定短语,―后来‖。

13.【答案】D attendant仆人;keeper可理解为―饲养员‖,但是a student- keeper容易被误解为―收留学生的人‖;aide有―助手‖之义。作者一边上学,一边在动物园里打工,只能当助手。

14.【答案】D which在此引导定语从句,修饰前面列出的动物。

15.【答案】D 因为钱是在动物园打工挣的,选successfully更能体现其含义。

16.【答案】D finance my first trip意为―支付我的旅行费用‖;pay后应接介词for;其他选项的意思相差甚远。

17.【答案】B 此句为现在完成进行时态,选regularly比较贴切。

18.【答案】D 此句是由though引导的让步状语从句,应与主句意思相对立。选项中,sorrows 和disappointments与主句的appeal to相对立,但sorrows的分量太重。

19.【答案】C appeal to为成语,意思是―吸引‖。

20.【答案】B excursion短途旅行;journey(从一地到另一地的)长距离,具体的旅途;travel旅行,旅游,海外旅行;trip旅行,远足。

第二篇解析:

3.【答案】B on与前面的depend构成本句谓语。

4.【答案】B of与名词连用,表示具有某种性质,状态,做表语。置于句首,表示强调。正常语序为:Your attitude is of the utmost importance.

6.【答案】C 本句的意思是―如果一个刚刚开始工作的人就深信自己不会喜欢或肯定不适应这项工作,那么阻碍他成功的缺点就暴露出来了。‖or后面省略了主语he。ensure保证;certain肯定的(只能用于It做主语的句子里);surely确实地;sure肯定的。

11.【答案】D 本句主语是A book-keeper or carpenter…。根据主谓一致原则,其谓语应当用单数is,而不是复数are。being, been都是分词,应该排除。

12.【答案】D on与前面的capitalize搭配,表示―利用‖。做不定式help的补语。其它选项不能与capitalize搭配。

17.【答案】C 根据上下文,这里应当指―学习技能‖。

18.【答案】B 固定短语to begin with,意为―首先,第一‖,常用做插入语。

19.【答案】A 谓语动词pause后,examine又是动词原形,所以这里应当选to,可构成动词不定式,做目的状语。其余选项都是介词,不合题意。

第四篇

For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In (1) -- a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend (2) -- can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are (3) -- readers. Most of us develop poor reading (4) -- at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency (5) -- in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have (6) -- meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. (7) --, however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to (8) – words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over (9) -- you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which (10) -- down the speed of reading is vocalization - sounding each word either orally or mentally as (11) -- reads.

To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an (12), which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate (13) -- the reader finds comfortable, in order to ―stretch‖him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, (14) -- word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first (15) -- is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, (16) --

your comprehension will improve. Many people have found (17) -- reading skill drastically improved after some training. (18) -- Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute (19) -- the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can (20) -- a lot more reading material in a short period of time.

9.A.what B. which C. that D. if

12.A.accelerator B. actor C. amplifier D. observer

13.A.then B. as C. beyond D. than

14.A.enabling B. leading C. making D. indicating

16.A.but B. nor C. or D. for

17.A.our B. your C. their D. such a

18.A.Look at B. Take C. Make D. Consider

19.A.for B. in C. after D. before

20.A.master B. go over C. present D. get through

第四篇解析:

1.【答案】D 本句意思是―谁如果想谋得一份差事‖。applying需加for,意思是―申请‖;B.doing做;

C.offering提供此三项均不符题意,只有

D.getting(获得)适合。

2.【答案】A 本句意为―快速阅读与理解的能力,是关系到成败的关键所在‖只有quickly与原意吻合。easily(容易地);roughly (粗略地);decidedly(果断地)均与原文内容不符。

3.【答案】C 英语中,阅读速度快的人称为good reader,反之,就是poor reader。根据上下文的内容,多数人都属于poor reader,因此选poor(差的)。其它选项不妥。

4.【答案】B 此处的意思是―大多数人早期养成看书慢的习惯‖因此选habits(习惯)。training (训练,培训);situations(形势);custom(风俗习惯)。

5.【答案】A 此处说的是―主要的困难在于语言的自身要素,即单词‖。combines联合;touches 接触;involves包括,这三项的词义与原文不符。而lies与in构成搭配,意为―在于‖。

6.【答案】C 这里的意思是―如果单个地看这些字,它们并没有什么意义‖。some有点;A lot许多;dull单调的。此三项不合题意。只有little(很少)是否定词,合乎逻辑。

7.【答案】D 此句意为―作者对未受过阅读训练的人的不良习惯感到遗憾‖。Fortunately幸运地;In fact事实上;Logically合乎逻辑地,均不妥。Unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句义。

8.【答案】B 此句意为―在阅读时经常重读(反复读)‖因此,选reread重读。reuse再使用;Rewrite 改写;recite背诵。

9.【答案】A 此处所填的词既是look back over的宾语,又是you have just read的宾语,只有what 能充当这种双重成分。

10.【答案】C scales down按比例减少;cuts down削减;此两项不合题意。measures不能与down 搭配。只有slow与down搭配的意思―放慢‖,在此合适。

11.【答案】B 本段前文已经出现you,在此选one(泛指人们,我们,你)来代替you。some one

无此用法。如果用reader,前面应加定冠词。he不能与该段逻辑一致。

12.【答案】A 此句意为―训练快速阅读所使用的工具必然与提高阅读速度有关‖,因此选accelerator (快读器)。actor演员;amplifier放大器;observer观察者。

13.【答案】D 前面的faster决定了应当选than,构成比较级。

14.【答案】C 此句意为―快速阅读器迫使你加快阅读速度,使你再也不能逐字阅读,回顾前文内容或者默读‖。enabling相当于making possible;leading引导;indicating指出,表明。都不合题意。只有making (使,使得)最合适。

15.【答案】B 这里的意思是―速读最初会影响理解‖,所以选comprehension(理解力)。meaning 意义,意思,指词或词组表示的意义;gist大意,要旨regression回顾

16.【答案】A 与前半句中的not only相呼应,构成句式―不仅……,而且……‖,只有选but,而nor;or或for均不能构成固定用法。

17.【答案】C 本句中的主语是第三人称复数,物主代词必然是their。

18.【答案】B take与后面的for instance构成短语,意为:―以……例‖,其它三项不能构成搭配。

19.【答案】D 这里提到受训之前与受训之后进行比较,对比,因此选before。

20.【答案】D 此处意为:在较短时间内,读完众多的材料。master掌握;go over复习;present 呈现,展现;三项均不妥;只有get through (读完)最恰当。

Many linguists believe that evolution is (4) -- for our ability to produce and use language. They (5)

-- that our highly evolved brain provides us (6) -- an innate language ability not found in lower (7) --. Proponents of this innateness theory say that our (8) -- for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, (9) -- a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore there are critical (10) -- times for language development.

Current (11) -- of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. (12) --, more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in (13) -- grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being (14) -- to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the (15) -- of their first language have become firmly fixed.

(16) -- some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in

a vacuum. Children who have been (17) -- from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that (18) -- with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language (19) -- than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. (20) --, children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their child's language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.

第六篇解析:

1.【答案】B 此处意为:当人类刚刚开始进化,他们如同新生儿一样不会运用语言这种工具。evolved逐渐发展,进化符合题意。generated生殖,发展;born (bear的过去分词)不能作谓语动词;originated起源,不能用first修饰。

2.【答案】A 根据语法分析,答案应用来修饰语言的。valuable珍贵的;appropriate合适的,适当的;convenient方便的,便利的;favorite最喜欢的。语言并不是人类选择的结果,而是人类在进化过程中慢慢发展起来的,对人类来说,应当是珍贵的。

3.【答案】A 此处意思是:语言的发展增加了人类未来的成就和文化进步的可能性。attainments 成就;feasibility可行性;entertainments娱乐;evolution进化。

4.【答案】D 此处意为:许多语言学家认为进化使人们产生和具备了语言的能力。固定短语be

responsible for对……负责,是……的原由。其它选项不与for搭配。

5.【答案】C 根据语法分析,空格后应是一个宾语从句,而A,B,D三项后都不能接从句做直接宾语。confirm(确认)+名词;inform(通知)sb.of sth.;convince(使某人确信) sb.of sth.

6.【答案】D 固定搭配provide sb.with sth.意为―向(人)提供(物)‖

7.【答案】B 此处意为:我们高度发达的大脑是我们具备了其它低等动物所不具备的语言能力。显然,这里是把人和低等动物相比较。因此选organisms有机体,生物体。

8.【答案】A 此句意思是:人类的语言能力是与生俱来的,但语言本身也在逐渐发展,所以这种能力应该是潜在的。potential潜力;performance履行;preference偏爱;passion激情。

9.【答案】A 此句句义是:语言本身作为童年时期大脑生长的一种功能,其发展是缓慢的。as (作为,当作)合乎题意。Like作为介词的意思是―像……一样‖。

10.【答案】B 此句意为:语言的发展有一个关键期,人体的成长是生物变化的过程。biological 生物的;ideological思想上的;social社会的;psychological心理的。

11.【答案】A 此处意为:目前人们对―先天论‖评论观点不一,但是支持某些天生能力的证据却是确凿无疑的。reviews评论;reference参考;reaction反应;recommendation推荐。

12.【答案】C 从11题可看出,作者是倾向于先天论的,为了进一步证明先天论是有道理的,作者选择了以学校为例加以说明,因此这里应填一个表示递进关系的词Indeed(甚至)。

13.【答案】D 此处意思是:越来越多的学校发现在什么年级学外语较容易,根据常识(低年级学外语较容易)以及后文的Young children often can learn several languages by being 14 to them, while adults…可以选定答案。

14.【答案】B 此处意为:通过接触多种语言,孩子们可以学会好几种语言。be exposed to是固定搭配,接触到。reveal(显露)sth.to sb,不合题意,因本题中的them指languages。其余选项不与to搭配。engage in从事;be involved in参与。

15.【答案】C 此句意思是:一旦母语的规则被深深印入脑海中,成年人就很难再学好另一种语言。rules规则,规律;regulations规定;formations构成,构造;constitutions宪法,章程。

16.【答案】A 分析上下文的逻辑关系,从句意思是:语言的某些方面肯定是先天的。主句意思是:语言不会在与人隔绝的状况下自行发展。前后应为转折关系。

17.【答案】D 此句意为:与人隔绝的儿童不能掌握好一门语言。isolated孤立的,与人隔绝的;distinguished区别的,杰出的;different不同的;protected受到保护的。

18.【答案】D 此句总结前几句,意为:必须通过与他人交往,语言才能够发展。interaction相互作用;exposition暴露;comparison比较;contrast对比。

19.【答案】A 根据分析,本句中的―this‖和―even more basic‖分别指代上句的―interaction with other human beings‖和―necessary‖,此处所填词对应上文中的language development。也就是说,language acquisition语言习得。appreciation欣赏,感激;requirement要求;alternative转移,转变,转换。

20.【答案】C 本句功能是以另一种方式解释前文中的―imitative, learned behavior.(模仿性的后天行为)‖。In other words换言之,换句话说;As a result结果是;After all毕竟;Above all首先。

They (6) -- the common things of life, and are the stock in trade of all who (7) -- the la nguage. Such words may be called ―popular‖, since they belong to the people (8) -- and are not the exclusive (9) -- of a limited class. On the other hand, our language (10) -- a multitude of words which are comparatively (11) -- used in ordinary conversation. Their meanings are known to every educated person, but there is little (12) -- to use them at home or in the market-place. Our (13) -- acquaintance with them comes not from our mother's (14) -- or from the talk of our school-mates, (15) -- from books that we read, lectures that we (16) --, or the more (17) -- conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular (18) -- in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual (19) -- of everyday life.

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions . Hire Advantage At a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult ,employers who can eliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinct advantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots . A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make .

大学英语四级完型填空答题步骤及技巧

大学英语四级完型填空答题步骤及技巧 答题步骤 首先,我们来看完型填空的解题步骤 (一)通读全文,了解文章大意 阅读理解是做Cloze的基础, 因此应该在对全文有了较全面的了解的基础上, 再开始做选择题, 切忌为了节约时间, 在未掌握大意的基础上“拿起来就做, 见空就填, 边填边理解”.那样做的结果, 不仅不能够节约时间, 而且会因为只考虑到所填的词在短语或句子内是否可行而忽略了整篇文章的连贯和结构, 造成选择错误. 因此,速读全文要一气呵成,尽管有空格、 生词或不明白的地方,仍要快速读下去。读时要注意找出关键词、中心词,划出某些代表 人物和情节的词,以便于形成思路。 当然, 由于考试时间有限,只能用略读法(skimming)将全文快速浏览一遍,明确文章的主题、 体裁。尤其要认真阅读全文的第一句,因为第一句都是一个没有空格的完整的句子,对后 文的重要提示。 (二)抓住首尾句 在阅读时要特别注意文章的第一句和最后一句,因为它们通常是文章的主题句,是全文的 中心所在。从第一句中可以窥见作者的写作目的,把握作者的写作思路以及文章将要叙述 的内容。而最后一句是作者对文章内容的归纳总结,表明作者的观点和态度,有利于加强 考生对文章的理解。 (三)联系上下文,进行逻辑推理 完形填空中有些空格的四个选项从词汇搭配、语法和单句的角度考虑均行得通。但由于文 章是一个完整的统一体,词、句、段三者存在着内在逻辑关系,此时,需要在上下文中寻 找有关的提示或暗示,对文章的情节进行逻辑分析,抓住主要语言信息的词语,理顺句与 句之间的关系,确定合理的答案。 (四)逐题选择答案 浏览全文之后,开始进入逐题做答阶段,运用查读法(Scanning),对所有选择项从语法、 搭配和语篇等方面进行反复推敲,从而选出最佳答案。做题原则是瞻前顾后,灵活答题。“瞻前顾后”,即先读所填词的句子,回顾上一句,兼顾下一句。如果一句中有两个空白待 填,在初定答案时要“双管齐下”,在两处同时试填,然后通读全句,确定答案。答题方法:1)择优法:根据文章及结构边读边填,如果能够立刻判定最佳答案的,不必再去逐个考证

Colleges taking another look at value of merit-based aid Good grades and high tests scores still matter—a lot—to many colleges as they award financial aid. But with low-income students projected to make up an ever-larger share of the college-bound population in coming years, some schools are re-examining whether that aid, typically known as “merit aid”, is the most effective use of precious institutional dollars. George Washington University in Washington, D.C., for example, said last week that it would cut the value of its average merit scholarships by about one-third and reduce the number of recipients(接受者), pouring the savings, about $2.5 million, into need-based aid. Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa., made a similar decision three years ago. Now, Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y., says it will phase out merit scholarships altogether. No current merit-aid recipients will lose their scholarships, but need-based aid alone will be awarded beginning with students entering in fall 2008. Not all colleges offer merit aid; generally, the more selective a school, the less likely it is to do so. Harvard and Princeton, for example, offer generous need-based packages, but many families who don’t meet need eligibility(资格)have been willing to pay whatever they must for a big-name school. For small regional colleges that struggle just to fill seats, merit aid can be an important revenue-builder because many recipients still pay enough tuition dollars over and above the scholarship amount to keep the institution running. But for rankings-conscious schools in between, merit aid has served primarily as a tool to recruit top students and to improve their academic profits. “They’re trying to buy students,”says Skidmore College economist Sandy Baum. Studies show merit aid also tends to benefit disproportionately students who could afford to enroll without it. “As we look to the future, we see a more pressing need to invest in need-based aid,”says Monica Inzer, dean of admission and financial aid at Hamilton, which has offered merit scholarships for 10 years. During that time, it rose in US News & World Repor t’s ranking of the best liberal arts colleges, from 25 to 17. Merit aid, which benefited about 75 students a year, or about 4% of its student body, at a cost of about $ 1 million a year, “served us well,”Inzer says, but “to be
