第一篇: 英语四级考试试题

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B) ,C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

Increasingly, over the past ten years, people―especially young people―have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for health. Consequently,there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.

Natural foods, for example, are vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter.In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount but not the quality of foods grown in commercial farming areas.

Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry: there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; but also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.

There are other aspects of healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on diet. Take, for example, the question of sugar. This is actually a nonessential food! Although a natural alternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten food if this necessary, we can in fact do without it. It is not that sugar is harmful in itself. But it does seem to be additive: the quantity we use has grown steadily over the last centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds a year! Yet all it does is provide us with energy, in the form of calories. There are no vitamins in it, no minerals and nofiber.?

It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example ,the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables, certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis is placed on the eating of whole meal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on “healthy eating”.

? 21.Which statement best expresses the main idea of this article?

? A) People should eat any food to keep themselves healthy and strong.

? B) People should eat natural foods to keep themselves healthy and strong.

? C) People should eat fiber foods to keep themselves healthy and strong.

? D) People should eat vegetables to keep themselves healthy and strong.

? 22.“Particularly processed foods” means ____.

? A) foods which are particularly processed by adding chemical additives

? B) foods which are particularly made by commercial farms

? C) foods which are specially produced by commercial factories

? D) foods which are not specially made by adding anything

? 23.Natural foods means ____.

? A) foods good for health

? B) foods not good for health

? C) foods such as vegetables, fruit and grain from rich organic matters soil

? D) crops from rich organic matters soil and meats of animals from healthy pastures

? 24.There are no vitamins, no minerals and no fibers in ____.

? A) natural foods C) sugar

? B) animal meats D) fruit

25.“Yet all it does is provide us with energy, in the form of calories.” It means ____.

? A) processed food provides us with energy

? B) natural food furnishes us with vitamins and minerals

? C) sugar gives us enough energy in the form of calories

? D) fiber helps us to digest food?

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: ?

With a tremendous roar from its rocket engine, the satellite is sent up into the sky. Minutes later, at an altitude of 300 miles, this tiny electronic moon begins to orbit about the earth. Its radio begins to transmit an astonishing amount of information about the satellite"s orbital path, the amount of radiation it detects, and the presence of meteorites. Information of all kinds races back to the earth.No human being could possibly copy down all these facts, much less remember and organize them. But an electronic computer can. ?

The marvel of the machine age, the electronic computer has been in use only since 1946. It can do simple computations―add,subtract, multiply and divide―with lighting speed and perfect accuracy. Some computers can work 500,000 times faster than any person can.

Once it is given a “program” ― that is, a carefully worked?out set of instructions devised by a technician trained in computer language ― a computer cagather a wide range of information for many purposes. For the scientist it can get information from outer space or from the depth of the ocean. In business and industry the computer prepares factory inventories, keeps track of sales trends and production needs, mails dividend checks, and makes out company payrolls. It can keep bank accounts up to date and make out electric bills. If you are planning a trip by plane, the computer will find out what to take and what space is available.

Not only can the computer gather facts, it can also store them as fast as they are gathered and can pour them out whenever they are needed. The computer is really a high?powered“memory” machine that “has all the answers”―or almost all.Besides gathering and storing information, the computer can also solve complicated problems that once took months for people to do.

At times computers seem almost human. They can “read” hand?printed letters, play chess, compose music, write plays and even design other computers. Is it any wonder that they are sometimes called “thinking” machines?

Even though they are taking over some of the tasks that were once accomplished by our own brains, computers are not replacing us at least not yet. Our brain has more than 10 million cells. A computer has only a few hundred thousand parts.

For some time to come, then, we can safely say that our brains are at least 10,000 times more complex than a computer.How we use them is for us, not the computer, to decide.

? 26.In the first paragraph, the author thinks an electronic computer can ____.

? A) copy down all the facts

? B) remember all the facts

? C) organize the facts and everything

? D) copy down, remember and organize all the facts

? 27.“Program” means ____.

? A) a plan of what is to be done

? B) a complete show on a TV station at a fixed time table

? C) a scheduled performance

? D) series of coded instructions to control the operations of a computer

? 28.The computer is a high powered “memory” machine, which ____.

? A) has all the ready answers ― or almost all to any questions

? B) can remember everything

? C) can store everything and work for you

? D) has all the answers ― or almost to all the information that has been stored

? 29. “Thinking” machines suggest that ____.

? A) they can “read” hand printed letters etc

? B) they really can think and do many other jobs

? C) they even design other computers

? D) they can"t think, but can do something under human control

? 30.Can computers do whatever they want to do?Why?

? A) Yes, because some computers can work 500,000 times faster than any person can.

? B) No, because they normally have a few hundred thousand parts.

? C) No, because human brains are at least 10000 times more complex than any computers.

? D) No, because how a computer works is decided by human.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

No one expressed this attitude more strongly than Noah Webster (1758?1843).

Born near Nartford, Connecticut, he received his education at Yale College and later began to practise law. But business in this profession was slow, and he was forced to turn to teaching. As a teacher, he soon discovered that the English school books then in use were unsatisfactory, and the American Revolution reduced the supply of such books as there were. Webster therefore began to work on three simple books on English, a spelling book, a grammar, and a reader, and these were the first books of their kind to be published in this country. The success of the first part was surprisingly great. It was soon issued again under the title THE AMERICAN SPELLING BOOK, and in this form about 80 million copies were sold during the next hundred years. From a profit of less than one cent a copy, Webster got most of his income for the rest of his life. Not only did the little book have great influence on many generations of school children, but it also had the effect or turning its author"s attention to questions of language. In 1806 he produced a small dictionary,and this was followed by his greatest work, AN AMERICAN DICTIONARY OF

THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, published in two volumes in1828. In both of these works and in many smaller writings he had one purpose: to show that the Englsih language in his country was a truly American thing, developing in its own special way and deserving to be considered from an independent, American point of view. As he himself wrote,“ It is not only important, but in a degree necessary, that the people of this country should have an AMERICAN DICTIONARY of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England…some differences exist…. No person in this country will be satisfied with the English definitions of the words congress, senate, assembly, court, and so forth, for although these are words used in England, yet they are applied in this country to express ideas which they do not express in that country.” By giving American meanings and American pronunciation, by adopting a number of American spellings, and especially by introducing quotations from American authors beside those from English literature, he was able, to a great extent, to justify the title of his work. If, after a hundred years, some people still doubt the existence of a separate American language, his efforts, nevertheless, have left a lasting mark on the language of his country.

? 31.Webster first tried to earn his living in the field of ____.

? A) education C) law

? B) journalism D) medicine

? 32.Webster earned most of his money from the sale of his ____.

? A) dictionary of 1828 C) grammar

? B) spelling book D) reader

? 33.Apparently Webster published his first books while he was a____.

? A) teacher C) lawyer

? B) student D) doctor

? 34.This article could be entitled ____.

? A) Noah Webster and American English Spelling

? B) Noah Webster, the author of An American Dictionary of the English Language

? C) Noah Webster

? D) Noah Webster and American English Grammar

? 35.According to the article, Webster ____.

? A) had created American English and its usages

? B) had discovered American English and improved it

? C) had tried his best and left a milestone on the language of his country

? D) had left a language which was not used in England.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

? Once upon a time, the United States seemed to have plenty of land to go around. Plenty of rivers to dam and plenty of rural valleys left over. Plenty of space for parks and factories. Plenty of forests to cut and grasslands to plow. But that was once upon a time. The days of unused land are over.Now the land has been spoken for, fenced off, carved up into cities and farms and industrial parks, put to use.?

At the same time, the population keeps growing. People need places to work and places to play. So we need more sites for more industries, more beaches for more sunbathers, and more clean rivers for more fishers. And it isn"t just a matter of population growth. Our modern technology has needs that must be met, too. We need more coal for energy, and we need more power plants; cars must have highways and parking lots, and jets must have airports. ?

Each of these land uses swallows up precious space.Highways and expressways alone take some 200,000 acres each year. And urban sprawl ― the spreading out of cities ― is expected to gobble up vast areas of land by the year 2,000. But there is only so much land to go around. It is always hard to decide. Take, for example, a forest. A forest can be a timber supply. It can provide a home for wildlife. It is scenery and a recreation area for man. It is soil and watershed protection.

? 36.“…the United States seemed to have plenty of land to go around ” means that ____.

? A) the United States seemed to have vast land for its people to walk around

? B) the United States seemed to have enough land for sharing with everyone

? C) the United States could provide whatever its inhabitents" needs

? D) the United States was not able to allow its people to do what they wanted to

? 37.The sentence of “Plenty of rivers to dam and plenty of rural valleys left over” suggests that ____.

? A) the United States had a lot of rivers to dam and many rural valleys, too

? B) the rivers could be damed later

? C) rural valleys would be considered in the future

? D) people needn"t think of the rivers and valleys

? 38.“Now the land has been spoken for, …” tells us that ____.

? A) today, land has shown its values

? B) now, people have said something about land

? C) nowadays, land has been claimed by human beings

? D) recently, people spoke for the land

? 39.The phrase of “swallows up” informed us that ____.

? A) these usages of land have good results

? B) these lands must be used totally

? C) the precious space was taken completely

? D) the precious space were eaten up

? 40.The word “sprawl” indicates that ____.

? A) cities are developing very fast to meet the people"s demands

? B) urban areas are diminishing smoothly

? C) urban areas are enlarging steadily in a planned way

? D) cities are spreading out without any plans

第二篇: 英语四级考试试题

英语四级考试

那么，如何进行阅读理解的复习，提高阅读水平呢?下面就介绍一些阅读理解的复习方法及答题技巧：

大学英语四级考试阅读理解部分要求考生应该能达到《教学要求》中的一般要求，即“能基本读懂一般性题材的英文文章，阅读速度达到每分钟70词。在快速阅读篇幅较长、难度略低的材料时，阅读速度达到每分钟100词。能基本读懂国内英文报刊，掌握中心意思，理解主要事实和有关细节。能读懂工作、生活中常见的应用文体的材料。能在阅读中使用有效的阅读方法。”

四级的阅读理解主要包含量大部分：快速阅读理解和仔细阅读理解。快速阅读部分要求考生在15分钟的时间内读完一篇1000字左右的文章和后面的10道题。前面7道题是判断正误题(包括NOT GIVEN)或者是单项选择题，后3道是填空题，即根据对阅读材料的理解，填3到4个单词或短语(答案基本都是原文中出现的原词)。快速阅读要求我们运用略读或查读的技能从文章中获取信息。

仔细阅读部分要求考生阅读三篇短文。两篇为单项选择题型的短文理解测试，一篇为选词填空或简答题。但从6月以来的考试全部考查的是选词填空而没有考查简答题。仔细阅读理解部分测试考生在不同层面上的阅读能力，包括理解主旨大意和重要细节、综合分析、推理判断及根据上下文推测词义等。

大学英语四级考试的阅读文章体裁有记叙文、说明文、议论文，其中说明文和议论文为主要测试文体；在阅读题材方面，科技类大约占25%，人文类大约占45%，经济类大约占15%，综合类大约占5%，环境类比例小，近几年有上升趋势。因此，学生应针对不同的体裁和题材进行有侧重点的备考复习。

在做阅读理解的过程中，如果掌握正确的阅读方法和阅读技巧，阅读速度就会大大提升，同时提高阅读的准确度。因此在平时的复习中，要注意培养常用三种阅读方法：略读、查读、意群阅读法。

略读又称跳读(reading and skipping)，是指以尽可能快的速度阅读，迅速获取文章大意或中心思想。换句话说，略读是要求读者有选择地进行阅读，可跳过某些细节，以求抓住文章的大概，从而加快阅读速度。略读有下列四个特点：

(1)以极快的速度阅读大量材料，寻找字面上或事实上的主要信息和少量的阐述信息。

(2)可以跳过某个部分。

(3)理解水平可以稍低一些，但也不能太低。

(4)根据文章的难易程度和所要达到的目的"，不断地灵活调整阅读速度。

略读可以运用下列技巧：

(1)要利用印刷细节，如书或文章的标题、副标题、小标题、斜体词、黑体词、脚注、标点符号等，对书和文章进行预测略读。预测略读要了解作者的思路，以便把握大意、有关的细节及其相互关系。

(2)阅读文章开头的一、二段，力求抓住文章大意、背景情况、作者的文章风格、口吻或语气等。

(3)阅读段落的主题句和结论句。抓住主题句就掌握了段落大意，然后略去细节不读，以求得略读速度。

(4)注意转折词和序列词。转折词如however,moreover,in addition等，序列词如firstly,secondly等。

(5)若无需要，不必阅读细节。

总之，采用略读方法往往能够帮助我们确定文章的主题和作者的观点，以及文章的结构和作者的风格。

查读，同略读一样，也是一种快速阅读技巧。查读的目的主要是有目标地去找出文中某些特定的信息，也就是说，在对文章有所了解(即略读)后，在文章中查找与某一问题、某一观点或某一单词有关的信息，寻找解题的可靠依据。查读时，要以很快的速度扫视文章，确定所查询的信息范围。在四级快速阅读的测试文章中，如果给出明确的小标题，这就能够帮助很快地锁定解题范围。同时，还应该注意题目中体现出的所查信息的特点。如：问题或填空的句子中涉及到人名、地名，则主要寻找首字母大写的单词；有关日期、数目的问题，则主要查找具体数字；有关某个事件、某种观点等，就需要寻找与此相关的关键词，而与所查信息无关的内容可一掠而过。

查读是以某个细节的关键词为目标，目光很快地扫过文章，直到发现与问题有关的文字，迅速锁定答案。在回答细节题目的时候(也就是我们通常所说的五个“W”和一个“H”，即What，Who，When，Where，Why，How)，查读的效率之高就凸显出来了。

这种有选择性的阅读，特点是“带着问题找答案”，也就是说，在阅读文章之前就已经明白要回答什么样的问题，要找出什么方面的信息，然后带着这些问题进行阅读，在文章中找出某些具体的事实和信息。这种“带着问题找答案”的方法，关键在于要熟悉不同体裁文章中信息的分布特点，否则就很难快速地找到所需信息。

所谓意群，就是有意义的短语和语法结构。所谓意群阅读法是指把在意义和语法结构上有关联的几个词，连接成相对完整的信息，成群消化理解的方法。意群阅读法是以意群而不是单词为最小阅读单位的一种快速阅读方法。它不仅可以提高阅读速度，而且有利于对句子的整体理解，而不是死抠字眼，逐词理解。一个好的阅读者在阅读过程中眼睛的移动是从一个意群到另一个意群；而普通阅读者阅读时则是从一个单词移动到另一个单词。

运用意群阅读法既可以提高阅读的速度，又可以提高答题的正确率。

英语四级考试完形填空专项试题

Culture is the sum total of all the traditions, customs, beliefs, and ways of life of a given group of human beings. In this (36), every group has a culture, however savage, undeveloped, or uncivilized it may seem to us.

To the professional anthropologist (人类学家), there is no intrinsic(37)of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic hierarchy(等级制度) among languages.

People once thought of the languages of backward groups as (38) and undeveloped forms of speech,consisting largely of grunts and groans. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of grunts and groans, it is a fact established by the study of “backward” languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the(39)of ideas. They fall behind our Western languages not in their sound patterns or(40 )structures, which usually are fully adequate for all language needs, but only in their vocabularies, which41the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however,two things are to be noted: 1. All languages seem to(42)the machinery for vocabulary expansion, either by putting together words already in existence or by borrowing them from other languages and adapting them to their own system. 2. The objects and activities requiring names and distinctions in“backward” languages, while different from ours, are often surprisingly(43)and complicated.

This study of language, in turn, (44)a new light upon the claim of the anthropologists that all cultures are to be viewed(45), and without ideas of rank or hierarchy.

A. savage

B. superiority

C. conceive

D. transfer

E. identification

F.grammatical

G. reflect

H. reveals

第六篇: 英语四级考试试题

英语四级考试阅读理解练习试题

task 1

Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood.

Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily. Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.?

1. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ______.

A. was one of the first tools B. developed human capabilities? C. led to the invention of machines

D. was crucial to the development of mankind

2. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is ______.

A. disastrous B. unpredictable C. exciting D. colorful

答案解析：

1. D) 这是一道细节题。根据文章第二段尾句

“Some scientists say that it was the key to the success of mankind”

可知“stone chip”对于人类的发展起到了非常重要的作用，这与D正好相符。

2. B) 在文章最后一段中作者说人类在过去的几百万年时间 里一直使用“stone chip”，人类社会发生的变化很小。

而我们使用“silicon chips”才不过几年，生活却发生了巨大的变化。 于是作者发出了疑问：“二十年后的生活会是什么样子的呢?”， “ 二百万年后的世界又会是什么样子呢?”， 表明将来的生活无法预料，这与选项B相符

task 2

Glacier National Park in Montana shares boundaries with Canada, an American Indian reservation, and a national forest. Along the North Fork of the Flathead River, the park also borders about 17,000 acres of private lands that are currently used for ranching, timber, and agriculture. This land is an important part of the habitat and migratory routes for several endangered species that frequent the park. These private lands are essentially the only ones available for development in the region.With encouragement from the park, local landowners initiated a land use planning effort to guide the future of the North Fork. The park is a partner in an inter local agreement that calls for resource managing agencies to work together and with the more than 400 private owners in the area. A draft plan has been prepared, with objective of maintaining traditional economic uses but limiting new development that would damage park resources. Voluntary action by landowners, in cooperation with the park and the county, is helping to restrict small lot subdivisions, maintain wildlife corridors, and minimize any harmful impact on the environment.

The willingness of local landowners to participate in this protection effort may have been stimulated by concerns that congress would impose a legislative solution. Nevertheless, many local residents want to retain the existing character of the area. Meetings between park officials and landowners have led to a dramatically improved understanding of all concerns.

1. The passage mainly discusses______.

A. the endangered species in Glacier National Park

B. the protection of lands surrounding Glacier National Park

C. conservation laws imposed by the state of Montana

D. conservation laws imposed by Congress

2. Why are the private lands surrounding Glacier National Park so important?

A. They function as a hunting preserve.

B. They are restricted to government use.

C. They are heavily populated.

D. They contain natural habitats of threatened species.

3. The relationship between park officials and neighboring landowners may best be described as______.

A. indifferent B. intimate?C. cooperative D. disappointing

4. It can be inferred from the passage that a major interest of the officials of Glacier National Park is to______.

A. limit land development around the park

B. establish a new park in Montana

C. influence national legislation

D. settle border disputes with Canada

答案解析：

1. B) 这是一道主旨题。通过阅读文章可知，为了保护冰川国家公园的濒危物种和资源，公园当局和地方土地所有者制订了限制土地使用计划，故答案为B。 2. D) 这是一道细节题。根据第一段第三句“This land is an important part of the habitat and migratory routes for several endangered species that frequent the park.”(这片土地是非常重要的，因为这里是几种经常光顾此公园的濒危物种的栖息地和迁徙路线。)可知选项D为正确答案。

3. C) 根据第二段可知，公园当局和地方土地所有者密切合作来保护资源，因此他们的关系是“cooperative” (合作性的)。 ?

4. A) 这是一道推理题。根据第二段第三句和阅读全文，我们很容易就可以得到这样一个信息：为了保护自然资源和濒危物种，公园管理者限制那些会破坏资源的土地开发。因此选项A为正确答案。
