W: Yes, here it is.

M: OK, let's see now, you lost some marks because you didn't look at the underlying causes that you were asked for in Question One... In Question Two, it would have been helpful if you could have looked at it from other points of view—a lot of people don't see it the way you do.

W: But I did mention that there were other points of view. I didn't know I needed to discuss them as well. Mr. Jackson, I am still concerned about the mark.

Eleven tigers died in more than three months at a zoo in Shenyang in the Northeast.

Who is responsible for the management of the non-state-owned zoo? Why is the annual income of 12-14 million yuan from sales of tickets not enough to provide for the more than 1,000 animals?

In the past 11 years since the zoo was established on the basis of the city's state-owned zoo, the total number of animals has been reduced from more than 1,000 in 61 species to more than 500 in 41 species. More than 100 workers have been on strike for a week asking for their payment. The state-owned zoo has been converted into a non-state one, but that does not mean whoever runs it can make money at the expense of the animals. And neither does it mean that whoever has the controlling share can do whatever he or she wants without being supervised by the local government.

Rumors have it that the zoo intentionally starved the tigers to death to put pressure on the local government for more money. If it is true, the decision-makers should be arrested for the crimes of killing endangered wild animals. Yet none of the leaders at the zoo has said a word. The local government won't be able to plan for the future of this zoo and of the wild animals if the problems with the current management are not resolved.

B) 1000.

A) Indifferent.

B) Neutral.

C) Supportive.

D) Critical.

正确答案为D你没有作答。

者会因杀害濒危野生动物而被逮捕(If it is true, the decision-makers should be arrested for the crimes of killing endangered wild animals),可见作者对动物园领导者的批判态度,所以选D。

For the Boao International Tourism Forum that opened this weekend in Boao, Hainan Island, we hope it isn't full of empty talks about the general development of tourism.

What we would like to see is for the forum to be concerned about the island's housing and hotel prices, which will threaten island tourism in the long run.

Immediately after the central government's January announcement to develop the island into an international tourist attraction, housing and hotel prices on the island soared quickly. They have been five times higher than the prices before the announcement. The central government's plan by no means wants to make the island into a scenery attraction for the rich. But 10,000 yuan for one night at a three-star hotel for a family of three is far too high for even white-collar professionals.

The sudden increase has indeed attracted many investors to the island, and both local government and real estate developers must have made a tidy sum in the past months. But traveling to and staying on this island has been a great trouble for many families who enjoy seeing the beautiful landscape on the island. National rush for houses will only push housing prices higher in the near future. If bubbles are popping up in the housing market and vacationing is becoming far too expensive, tourism will take a massive hit.

With all this in mind, the healthy and stable development of tourism should be one of the major topics for the forum.

19.What will influence Hainan Island's tourism directly?

A) International tourism forum.

B) Housing and hotel prices.

C) Government's policies.

D) Family structure and income.

正确答案为B你没有作答。

解析:

音频中提到,岛上的住房和酒店价格会威胁到岛上的旅游业(the island's housing and hotel prices, which will threaten island tourism in the long run.),可见住房和酒店价格会影响到当地的旅游业,所以选B。

20.What's the central government's plan for Hainan Island?

A) To raise the housing and hotel prices on the island.

B) To make the island a scenery attraction for the rich.

C) To make the island an international tourist attraction.

D) To boom tourism by holding an international forum.

正确答案为C你没有作答。

音频中提到,国家是想将海南岛开发成国际性的旅游景点(develop the island into an international tourist attraction),所以选C。

21.What's the expected topic for the forum?

A) Protection of the island's environment.

B) Improvement of the island's infrastructure.

C) Healthy development of the island's tourism industry.

D) Healthy development of the island's retail industry.

正确答案为C你没有作答。

解析:

音频最后提到,健康稳定的旅游业发展将是论坛的主题之一(the healthy and stable development of tourism should be one of the major topics for the forum),所以选C。

For the first time on the Forbes Billionaires List, the number of Chinese billionaires ranks second in the world, following theUnited Statesand overtakingRussia. Of the 64 billionaires from the Chinese mainland in the 2010 list, 27 are new to the rankings. But while they celebrate their new worldwide fame, we hope they also spend a moment or two considering the role they should play in society.

The image of Chinese billionaires has not been very tasteful these days. Compared to foreign billionaires, many of the rich inChinaare less generous and sympathetic. To some extent, being rich inChinais seen as leading a luxurious and wasteful life. There is also evidence that some of the rich acquired their wealth through illegal means. It is, therefore, our hope that the Chinese who have made their way into the Forbes Billionaires List this year set a good example for the rest of the rich nationwide by shouldering more social responsibilities.

They could win praise if they repay society in one way or another. By donating a portion of their fortune to a charity or spending in the name of a public welfare cause, they could mold a better image of the rich in our society. In fact, the general public, including some wealthy individuals, did respond well to theSichuanearthquake two years ago and made substantial donations for relief efforts.

22.Which country had the third largest number of billionaires in 2010?

A) America.

B) China.

C) France.

D) Russia.

正确答案为D你没有作答。

解析:

24.What is the image of Chinese billionaires according to the speaker?

A) They are more generous than foreign billionaires.

B) They are very careful when making investments.

C) They acquired their wealth through hard work.

D) They are less sympathetic than foreign billionaires.

解析:

音频中提到,与国外的亿万富翁相比,中国的富人没有那么慷慨,也没那么富于同情心(Compared to foreign billionaires, many of the rich in China are less generous and sympathetic),所以选D。

25.What is expected of China's rich people?

A) Trying to remain in the billionaires list.

B) Donating money to poor people directly.

C) Repaying society in one way or another.

D) Becoming volunteers when there is the need.

正确答案为C你没有作答。

解析:

The World Consumer Rights Day that we observe together today is more than a day of action to address growing consumer complaints. It is also high time for Chinese (26)policymakers to recognize the increasing importance of domestic consumption to the country's (27)stable economic growth. If, as expected, Chinese consumers are to play a (28)leading role in promoting economic growth, more government (29)efforts to promote and protect the basic rights of all consumers are badly (30)needed .

With the rapid (31)expansion of domestic consumer markets, Chinese consumers contributed 4.6 percentage points to the country's 8.7 percent GDP growth last year despite the worst (32)global recession in decades. For instance, huge growth in consumer car (33)purchases rendered China the world's largest auto market much sooner than expected. The great future of this market means local (34)consumers deserve the same respect and protections enjoyed in developed countries.

However, to further develop the domestic consumer market, protection of consumer rights should no longer focus on addressing specific grievances (申诉) about product quality. It is equally important for the government to (35)monitor market activities that may weaken consumer rights. On the one hand, the service of domestic or multinational (多国的) corporations in some industries requires better government regulation to defend the rights of consumers. On the other hand, some consumption-related policies like the current personal income tax baseline (底线) as well as import tariffs (关税) should also be reviewed in a timely fashion and adjusted in line with the welfare of consumers.

If you've been submitting resumes for different types of positions, you could certainly benefit from a master resume. Master resumes allow you to (36)organize the different sections of your resume in a clear way and let you change out key bits of (37)information or certain sections of the resume before submitting it to a potential employer.

A master resume (38)provides a great way to create quick and specific resumes. Your first order of business is to create a headline for your resume. You'll be far more (39)successful if your headline stands out and gives the potential employer a reason to hire you. What's great about the master resume is that once you create the headline in your first one, you could also use it to create other great headlines.

The expertise (专业知识) section is another part of a master resume that (40)offers flexibility so that you can switch out information as needed. You can either leave this section titled as such, or change it (41)slightly . In either case, you want to develop this section to show your employer the various (42)skills you've picked up over the (43)course of your career.

Depending on the job you're (44)applying for, your credentials (文凭) may be relevant in some instances and irrelevant in others. Another advantage of a master resume is that it's easy to create a section where credentials can be changed out or added in, which (45)improves the overall quality of the document.

C) course

D) degrees

36.正确答案为I) organize你没有作答。

解析:I) organize

organize: 【考点】语法结构题【解析】allow sb. To do sth是习惯搭配,意思是“允许某人做某事”,因此这里需要填入一个动词原形,选项中只有organize符合要求,所以此处填入organize。

information: 【考点】词义辨析题【解析】bits of在英语中用来修饰不可数名词,意思是“少量的……”。我们可以说bits of paper(碎纸),bits of bread(小片面包),或者是bits of information(少量信息),所以此处填入information。

provides: 【考点】句子意思题【解析】这里要表达的意思是:一篇优秀的简历可以为你提供创造快捷、具体的简历的好方法。provide是“提供”的意思。另外由于主语a master resume是单数形式,所以此处填入provides。

successful: 【考点】逻辑分析题【解析】前一句提到,你的首要任务是为你的简历创造一个标题。而这里提到出色的标题,通过逻辑分析我们可以推断出,如果标题很出色的话,那你将会更成功,所以此处填入successful。

offers: 【考点】词义辨析题【解析】这里要表达的意思是:专业知识部分会呈现出灵活性的特点,让人可以根据需要调整信息内容。offer作为动词有“显现、呈现”的意思,所以此处填入offers。

slightly: 【考点】句子结构题【解析】分析可知这里需要一个副词来修饰动词change,选项中只有slightly的词性符合要求,意思是“稍微地”所以此处填入slightly。

skills: 【考点】上下文联系题【解析】从该段的第一句话可知这里讲的是专业知识,因此你要呈现给雇主的是你的各种技能。Skills表示特定的技能、技巧,所以此处填入skills。

course: 【考点】固定搭配题【解析】over the course of one’s career为固定搭配,意思是在……生涯中。这里要表达的意思是:在你的职业生涯中,所以此处填入course。

applying: 【考点】固定搭配题【解析】apply for为固定搭配,意思是“应聘、申请”。这里要表达的意思是:基于你申请的岗位,所以此处填入applying。

improve: 【考点】句子意思题【解析】这里要表达的意思是:简历中可以随意增加或删改文凭内容的部分可以提高整篇简历的质量。improve意思是“改善、改进”,所以此处填入improve。

A "Give us a semester and we'll give you the world." This motto (格言) of Syracuse University's Division of International Programs Abroad is a brief way to sum up the advantages of studying abroad for college students. A semester of studying overseas can open your eyes in ways the best on-campus courses cannot.

B Studying abroad means living and studying for a period outside the United States. Many US colleges and universities now offer their students this opportunity, either through their own programs or through affiliations (关系) with programs of other schools, like Syracuse, that admit guest students. Students attend class and earn academic credit that counts toward their own degree requirements. Several different types of programs exist. It is important to find the one best for you.

C Overseas centers are, in effect, small branches of a US school that exist in a variety of locations. Syracuse and many other schools have such centers. While facilities may not have exactly the same services as the home campus, they provide students with basic assistance in living and studying overseas. Staff members help with housing, integration (融入) into local community activities, and other student needs. A faculty from the home campus or hired locally teaches classes that have been designed to provide American students with a solid knowledge base. Students have a "home away from home" where they can use computer facilities, pick up mail, study or just relax.

D Such centers exist in most parts of the world, although the largest number of them may be found in Western countries, especially England, Spain, France, Germany, and Italy. Still, non-European sites are experiencing the largest growth. In 1993-94, nearly 1,500 students went to Africa, an increase of 17.5% over the previous year. Asian programs experienced nearly a 20% growth rate during the same period.

E University exchanges are arrangements that permit US students to enroll directly in classes at foreign universities, usually as a part of an exchange that sends students from the foreign schools to enroll for a similar period in the United States. Students are limited to exchanges with English-speaking schools unless they are fluent enough to take classes in another language alongside native speakers. Differences in curriculum (课程) and scheduling sometimes pose other barriers difficult to overcome, but the rewards of undertaking this challenging experience are great.

F Increasingly popular are short-term programs of perhaps two to six weeks. These programs are frequently led by home-campus professors who teach one or two intensive courses during the summer or other school break periods. They are often "traveling seminars" taking students to a variety of locations over the length of the program.

G What is the best program for you? It depends. I advise students to choose the longest program that fits their degree plans and their comfort level. It takes time to understand and adapt to a new culture. If foreign language fluency is a goal, this too is best accomplished through a long-term overseas stay. However, the increased cost that usually accompanies studying abroad, degree requirements that make an extended absence from campus difficult, or other personal factors sometimes lead students to select shorter-term options.

H Once they decide that they should study abroad, most students have a good idea of where they would like to go. Cultural customs are often a determining factor: African-American students frequently select sites in sub-Saharan Africa, while programs in Spain and Latin America enroll large numbers of Hispanics. But just as often, students look to their future rather than to their past, selecting programs that fit their major and their career plans. For example, business or international relations students can gain valuable awareness of the European Union at sites in London, or learn about the increasingly important Pacific Rim countries through participation in programs in Hong Kong, Singapore, or Japan. Theater, English, or journalism majors find London an excellent place to study. Foreign language majors achieve true language mastery by studying where their chosen language is spoken while living with a host family.

I Most subjects can be studied overseas. Some are difficult to find, but even science or music students can often continue their studies at British or Australian universities.

This phenomenon has raised considerable concern among parents and college faculties about living off campus, which is caused by the following reasons. To begin with, living conditions of an apartment off campus may be better than those of a dormitory. A rented apartment is often equipped with an independent washroom and a shower equipment which may be of great advantage over the school dormitory. In general, a typical dormitory often accomodates four or six, or even eight students and it is too crowded and noisy for those who prefer private space as well as quiet circumstances. In addition, instead of being regulated by dormitory rules, students may enjoy more freedom in a rented apartment. If college students intend to rent an apartment, I think they should give top priority to safety. It is important to make a survey of the surroundings first to ensure the security. Besides, when they tend to enjoy the freedom, they should have a better sense of self-control and make good use of their time. 范文点评: 作文是一篇涉及校外租房话题的论述文,考生需要根据所给大纲进行写作。本文语言规范、地道、结构清晰。作者首先指出了当下大学生校外租房的普遍性;第二段通过to begin with 和in addition的使用,清晰地列举出校外租房相对于住宿舍的优势:公寓房条件要比宿舍好,而且学生可以享有更多的自由。最后,作者给出了自己的建议,如果想要校外租房,首先要考虑的就是安全问题。 Part Ⅱ Section A Understanding Conversations

2019英语四级翻译新题型模拟练习及答案:中国家庭文化

2019英语四级翻译新题型模拟练习及答案:中国家庭 文化 在传统的中国家庭文化中,同一祖先的几代后裔(descendants) 居住在一起,形成一个大家庭。这种自治(autonomous)家族制度是中国传统社会的基本单位。中国的孩子们跟随他们父亲的姓。这和西方文化是一样的。如今在中国,孩子跟父亲的姓或母亲的姓在法律上都是合法的。除了那些因为结婚加入到家庭中的人以外,人们的姓氏都是一样的。 In traditional Chinese family culture, descendants of several generations from the same ancestor lived together and formed a big family system. This kind of autonomous family system was the basic unit of traditional Chinese society. Chinese children follo w their father’s family name. This is the same as western culture. Nowadays in China it is legally fine for a child to follow either father’s family name or mother’s family name. Within each family system, of course people except those who joined this family system through marriage all have the same family name.

大学英语四级改革阅读理解新题型—匹配题练习(最新)

大学英语四级改革阅读理解新题型——匹配题 练习1 Caring for elderly parents catches many unprepared [A ] Last July, Julie Baldocchi,s mother had a massive stroke and was paralyzed. Baldocchi suddenly had to become a family caregiver, something that she wasn"t prepared for. “I was flying by the seat of my pants,” says Baldocchi, an employment specialist in San Francisco. Both of her parents are 83, and she knew her father couldn’t handle her mother’s care. The hospital recommended putting her mother in a nursing home. Baldocchi wasn’t willing to do that. But moving her back into her parents’ home created other problems. Baldocchi, 48, is married and lives about a mile away from her parents. She has a full-time job and has back problems that make it difficult for her to lift her mother. “I couldn’t do it all,” she says. “But I didn’t even know how to find help.” [B] With help from the Family Caregiver Alliance, she eventually hired a live-in caregiver. “But even if you plan intellectually and legally, you’re never ready for the emotional impact,” Baldocchi says. In the first two months after her mother’s stroke, she lost about 30 pounds as stress mounted. More than 42 million Americans provide family caregiving for an adult who needs help with daily activities, according to a 2009 survey by the AARP. An additional 61.6 million provided at least some care during the year. And many are unprepared. [C] While many parents lack an advance care directive, it’s the most basic and important step they can take. The directive includes several parts, including: a durable power of attorney, which gives someone legal authority to make financial decisions on another’s behalf; a health care proxy, which is similar to the power of attorney, except it allows someone to make decisions regarding medical treatment; and a living will that outlines instructions for end-of-life care. (For example, parents can say if they want to be kept alive by artificial measures.) “It’s invaluable for the kids, because it’s hard to make those decisions for a parent,”says Jennifer Cona, an elder- law attorney at Genser Dubow Genser & Cona in Melville, N.Y. An advance care directive is the first line of defense if a situation arises, says Kathleen Kelly, executive director of the Family Caregiver Alliance, which supports and educates caregivers. Without an advance directive, the family will have to petition the court to be appointed the parent’s legal guardian, says https://www.doczj.com/doc/7f13099839.html,. [D] It’s important for families to talk about long-term care so the adult children know their parents,preferences, wishes and goals, says Lynn Feinberg, a caregiving expert at AARP. But it’s not an easy conversation. Elderly parents are sometimes suspicious of their children’s financial motives, says Susan John, a financial planner at Financial Focus in Wolfeboro, N.H.

A: Pizza Hut was started in 1958, by two brothers in Wichita, Kansas. Frank and Dan Carney had the idea to open a pizza parlor. They borrowed $600 from their mother, and opened the very first Pizza Hut. In 1959, the first franchise unit opened in Topeka, Kansas. Almost a decade later, Pizza Hut would be serving one million customers a week in their 310 locations. In 1970, Pizza Hut was put on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol PIZ. B: In 1986, Pizza Hut introduced delivery service, something no other restaurant was doing. By the 1990's Pizza Hut sales had reached $4 billion worldwide. In 1998, Pizza Hut celebrated their 40th anniversary, and launched their famous campaign "The Best Pizzas Under One Roof." In 1996, Pizza Hut sales in the United States were over $5 million. Out of all the existing pizza chains, Pizza Hut had the largest market share, 46.4%. However, Pizza Hut's market share has slowly eroded because of intense competition from their rivals Domino's, Little Caesar's and newcomer Papa John's. Home delivery was a driving force for success, especially for Pizza Hut and Domino's.
