试题详解

11.A)Getsomesmallchange.A)换取零钱。

B)Findashoppingcenter.B)找一个购物中心。

C)Cashacheckatabank.C)在银行兑现支票。

D)Findaparkingmeter.D)找一个停车计费器。

【听音指导】选项均缺少主语,属于细节题加转折题型,预读时无需关注句意,直接找

相似场景即可,并且按照听力短对话规律,重点仍然在女士话语当中,典型的“转折”出答案

题型。

【正确项分析】由but后的moneychanger可知男生需要换零钱,可快速排除选项

B(购物中心)和选项D(停车)二个场景,答案应在选项A、C当中。C选项虽也和“钱”有

关,但对话中对该选项中的银行只字未提,由此可知答案为选项A。

【原文及译文】

M:avechangeforaten-dollarnote?Ineedtopaythe

parkingmeter.

W:I’msorry,butIthinkyoucangetitthroughthemoneychangerinthe

shoppingcenteracrossthestreet.

Q:Whatisthemantryingtodo?

男士:打扰一下,你能给我换开一张10美元的钞票吗?我需要支付停车费。

女士:很抱歉,但我觉得你可以到马路对面的购物中心里的货币兑换中换取零钱。

问题:男士要干什么?

【词汇点拨】parkingmeter停车计费器;cashacheck支票兑现;changen.零钱

12.A)Shoppingwithhisson.A)与儿子一起购物。

B)Buyingagiftforachild.B)给孩子买礼物。

C)Promotinganewproduct.C)促销新产品。

D)Bargainingwithasalesgirl.D)与女售货员讨价还价。

【听音指导】预览选项,可发现均缺少主语,与11题一样,属于细节题加建议题型,

直接寻找相似场景即可,可快速排除选项C,因为只有C选项是关于“出售”(促销),而其它

选项都和“购买”有关;答案应在选项A、B、D中。

【正确项分析】女士话语仍具有绝对指导意义,非常简单的建议考点,竟然直接用到了

suggest,其后必有答案,女生提到toytrain和brand,加上男生说的schoolboy,可

确定答案为选项B。

14

【干扰项分析】A选项中的son是无中生有,切忌主观猜测。选项D可在听时排除,

原文中并无任何涉及关于“还价”或具体金额的内容。

【原文及译文】

M:Canyourecommendsomethingthataschoolboyof7or8willreallylike?

W:I’dsuggestthistoytrain,’pularall

overtheworldthedays.

Q:Whatisthemandoing?

男士:你能给我推荐一个七八岁学童真正喜欢的东西吗?

女士:我给你推荐这款玩具火车。这是一个优秀的品牌。在世界各地都非常受欢迎。

问题:男士正在做什么?

【词汇点拨】recommendv.推荐;brandn.品牌;promotev.促销;bargainv.讨

价还价

13.A)Takingphotographs.A)拍照。

B)Enhancingimages.B)突显形象。

C)Mendingcameras.C)修理相机。

D)Paintingpictures.D)画画。

【听音指导】选项仍均缺少主语,属于细节考查题。选项D与其他三项明显不同,可

初步排除。第一句由女士发出,需仔细聆听,原文提到takingpictures(拍照),由此确定

话题方向。

【正确项分析】女士说话中提到takingpictures,与选项A中的takingphotographs

一致,答案为A选项。

【原文及译文】

W:Doyouletpeopleknowwhenyou’retakingpicturesofthem?

M:wanypictureofapersonwhoposforthecamera

wouldlookdullandunnatural.

Q:Whatarethespeakerstalkingabout?

女士:你给人们拍照时,会让他们知道吗?

男士:尽量不让他们知道。你也知道一个人为拍照摆出的姿势看起来呆滞、不自然。

问题:讲话人在谈论什么?

【词汇点拨】pov.摆姿势n.姿势,姿态;enhancev.提高,加强;imagen.图

像,形象

14.A)HemovedtoBaltimorewhenhewasyoung.A)他年轻的时候搬到巴尔

的摩。

B)Hecanprovidelittleufulinformation.B)他提供不了太多有用信息。

C)HewillshowthewomanaroundBaltimore.C)他将领女士参观巴尔的摩。

D)Hewillasksomeoneeltohelpthewoman.D)他将找其他人来帮助女士。

【听音指导】此题考查意义解释题加转折题型,此类题型答案多为“听见什么不选什么”。

本题需要对考生有一定的实力要求,属于可“失分”的题目。关注动词moveto,provide,

showaround和ask。

【正确项分析】经典转折考法,直接用but定位答案即可,男生说自己当时还很年轻,

言下之意自己对当地情况不够了解。答案为B选项。

【干扰项分析】根据四级听力中短对话“尾词错误原则”,即结尾内容听得越清楚越不能

选,可顺利排除A选项。选项C没有提及。选项D与选项B为相似项,其中应有答案,男

士并未主动提出找人帮忙,故排除选项D。

【原文及译文】

W:IneedtotalktosomeonewhoknowsBaltimorewell.I’mtoldyoulived

M:Oh,butIwasreallyyoungatthetime

Q:Whatdoesthemanmean?

女士:我需要找个非常了解巴尔的摩的人。我听说你曾在那里居住过。

男士:哦,但是我那时候太年轻了。

问题:男士是什么意思?

【词汇点拨】showaround领……参观

15.A)Heisratherdisappointed.A)他非常失望。

B)Heishighlyambitious.B)他很有抱负。

C)Hecan’tfaceuptothesituation.C)他不能面对处境。

D)Heknowshisownlimitation.D)他知道自己的不足。

【听音指导】预读四个选项时只有B提到了“正面、积极”的方向,可初步排除。选项

预读较难,但本题属于经典转折题型,关注相应标志词即可。but出现表示“前否后肯”,直

接用but定位答案,就可选出正确选项。

【正确项分析】原文是“承担责任前需要积累更多经验”,表明他知道自己的不足之处,

与选项D同义。

【干扰项分析】A选项中是rather,与原文的alittle不一致,可排除。C选项原文

中未曾提及。

【原文及译文】

W:Aren’tyoudisappointedthatyoudidn’tgetthepromotion?

M:Maybealittle,butIknowIneedmoreexperiencebeforeI’mreadyfor

thatkindofresponsibility.

Q:Whatdowelearnaboutthemanfromthisconversation?

女士:你没有被提升,不觉得失望吗?

男士:可能有一点,但我觉得承担责任前需要积累更多经验。

问题:从此对话可以得知男士的什么信息?

【词汇点拨】disappointeda.失望的;ambitiousa.有雄心的;promotionn.晋

升;responsibilityn.责任

16.A)Shemusthavepaidalotforthegym.A)她一定在健身房花了很多钱。

B)Sheisknowntohaveaterrificfigure.B)她以身材好而闻名。

C)Hergymexercihasyieldedgoodresults.C)她的健身锻炼取得了很好的

效果。

D)Herefforttokeepfitisreallypraiworthy.D)她努力健身的做法值得称赞。

【听音指导】预读四个选项,可知选项A与其他三项明显不同,可初步排除。选项B、

C都是关于锻炼效果极佳的表达,按照惯例其中应该有答案。本题为意义解释题,同义替换

是答案。

【正确项分析】男士提到yourefforthaspaidoff,这与选项C中的hasyieldedgood

results一致,故选择C项。

【干扰项分析】男士赞扬女士身材好,但未曾提到她以此闻名,B选项可排除。男士也

未称赞她的作法,故排除选项D。

【原文及译文】

W:I’itoutofshape.

16

M:sthatyourefforthaspaidoff.

Q:Whatdoesthemanimplyaboutthewoman?

女士:我从一月份一直在健身房锻炼。我之前都有些走形了。

男士:现在你看起来很棒。看来你的努力没有白费。

问题:男士暗示女士什么?

【词汇点拨】gymn.健身房;yieldv.产生;keepfit保持体型;workout体育锻

炼;outofshape走形,走样;payoff得到好结果

17.A)Femalestudentsareunfitforstudyingphysics.A)女学生不适合学习

物理。

B)Hecanrveasthewoman’stutor.B)他可以担当女士的家庭教师。

C)Physicsisanimportantcouratschool.C)在学校,物理是一门很重要的学

科。

D)Theprofessor’ssuggestionisconstructive.D)教授的建议是有建设性的。

【听音指导】本题选项预读最难,找不出明显的相反或相似选项,听前可暂时确定两组

方向。选项A、C与物理有关,选项B、D是导师的建议,待场景明确后再排除。

【正确项分析】首句用到suggest接着说到tutor场景明确,和选项B、D有关,排

除选项A、C。首句ProfessorClarksuggestedIgetatutorforadvancedphysics,

可知答案为选项D。

【原文及译文】

W:ProfessorClarksuggestedIgetatutorforadvancedphysics.

M:Well,edphysicsisaprettydifficultcour.

Q:Whatdoesthemanmean?

女士:克拉克教授建议我得为高等物理找个家庭教师。

男士:嗯,那可能有帮助。高等物理确实是一门比较难的科目。

问题:男士的意思是什么?

【词汇点拨】tutorn.家庭教师;constructivea.有益的,建设性的

18.A)Indifferent.A)漠不关心的。

B)Doubtful.B)怀疑的。

C)Plead.C)高兴的。

D)Surprid.D)惊奇的。

【听音指导】预读时可排除唯一的“积极”选项C。本题为加了“弦外之音”意义解释题,

同义替换是答案,此类题有较少的明显的语言点可以指示答案,难度较大。听音时关注说话

者的语气。

【正确项分析】女士所谓的好消息是谈话的两个人都没有被炒鱿鱼。男士却既不兴奋,

也没有表示怀疑,所以轻易排除选项B、C。因为他已经有点厌倦这份工作了,甚至想到要

去辞职。与选项A意义相符。

【原文及译文】

Questions19to22arebadontheconversationyouhavejustheard.

19.A)Heprefersthesmallereveningclass.A)他更喜欢晚上的小班课程。

B)Hehassignedupforadaycour.B)他已经报名参加白天课程。

C)Hehastoworkduringtheday.C)他白天上班。

D)Hefindstheeveningcourcheaper.D)他发现晚上课程更便宜。

【听音指导】预览选项,选项A、D讨论eveningclass,选项B讲述daycour,

立刻可推测此长对话与课程有关,且该课程有dayclass和eveningclass之分。从这四

个选项暗含的意义推测,男士应偏重于eveningclass,可初步推测,此题考查男士选择

eveningclass的原因。

【正确项分析】原文中男士明确说明itwouldhavetobeaneveningcoursince

Iworkduringtheday,关键词在于since,正所谓“因果必考”,选项C与原文相符。

20.A)Learnacomputerlanguage.A)学习一门计算机语言。

B)Learndataprocessing.B)学习数据处理。

C)Buysomecomputersoftware.C)买一些电脑软件。

D)Buyafewcourbooks.D)买一些课本。

【听音指导】行为动作考查题,根据19题推测,本对话涉及报班,由本题四个选项可

知,所报课程与电脑有关,因为前三项均与computer有关。可知选项D与其他三项明显

不同,可初步排除。本题也为一细节题,在听力过程中,应适时记录相关信息。

【正确项分析】女士先提到了Haveyoutakenanycoursindataprocessing,

在其后紧跟着又对其进行了解释dataprocessingisacouryouhavetotakebefore

youcantakecomputerprogramming。对于dataprocessing在对话中重复出现,

且与问题相符,故选择B选项。

21.A)Thursdayevening,from7:00to9:45.A)周四晚,7点至9点45分。

B)FromSeptember1toNewYear’ve.B)从9月1号至新年前夕。

C)EveryMonday,lastingfor12weeks.C)每周一,持续12周。

D)Threehoursaweek,45hoursintotal.D)一星期三小时,总共45小时。

【听音指导】由选项即可知本题考查数字的细节题,且考查的数字为持续的时间,初步

推测为某一课程所持续的时间。所以如在听力过程中涉及数字都要作笔记,且应注意数字的

上下文场景。

【正确项分析】对该问题的回答,信息较分散,最初提到了everyMonday,from7to

9:45。接下来在letmee停顿之后出现答案12weeks,fromSeptember1to

Christmave.整合以上信息,应选C。

【干扰项分析】选项A错在Thursdayevening,原文中明确给出应该是Monday

evening。选项B中的NewYear’ve也是偷梁换柱,应为Christmave。选项D涉

及小计算,每晚3小时,持续12周,应大约总共36小时才正确。

22.A)Whattobringforregistration.A)登记时需要带什么。

B)Wheretoattendtheclass.B)到哪里去上课。

C)HowhecangettoFrostHall.C)去弗罗斯特大厅怎么走。

D)Whetherhecanuacheck.D)他是否能用支票。

【听音指导】根据“前二后二必考”原则,本题又为本对话的最后一题,此题必在文章后

18

面出题。由四选项的形式可初步推测,本题考查的是问题的内容。

【正确项分析】本题的问题直截了当,在原文中男士给出了明确的提问,Isthere

anythingthatIshouldbringwithme?与选项A同义。

【干扰项分析】许多考生按照常理或主观臆测选定选项B,此项在原文中恰恰没有提到。

原文中男士也明确表明Iknowhowtogetthere,选项C是多余的。文中虽提到

checkbook,是女士对男士问题的回答,而非男士的发问,故排除。

23.A)Atrainingcoach.A)教练员。

B)Atradingadvir.B)商业顾问。

C)Aprofessionalmanager.C)职业经理。

D)Afinancialtrader.D)金融交易商。

【听音指导】本题为本长对话的第一题,出题点必在对话开始,由选项可知,本题涉及

职业,对于职业的考查也是前几年四级考试的重点。

【正确项分析】男士在文中明确提及tradinginfinancialmarkets,根据同义推断原

理,可推断该男士的职业是financialtrader.

24.A)Hecansaveonlivingexpens.A)他可以节省生活费用。

B)Heconsiderscookingcreative.B)他认为烹饪是具有创新性的。

C)Hecanenjoyhealthierfood.C)他喜欢健康食物。

D)Hethinkstake-awayistasteless.D)他觉得外带食品不好吃。

【听音指导】预览选项,可知选项A与其他三项明显不同,可初步排除。本题与食物

或烹饪有关。所以在听音过程中,如提及cooking或food,应多加注意,适时记录。

20

【正确项分析】听音过程中听到此句Ialwayscookamealratherthanhavea

take-away,即可知答案就在附近,接下来的一句Todosomethingmybrainwillregard

ascreative中,出现了关键词creative,选项B与之相符,故选择B选项。

25.A)Itissomethinginevitable.A)是某种不可避免的事情。

B)Itisfrustratingsometimes.B)有时候令人沮丧。

C)Ittakespatiencetomanage.C)它需要耐心来管理。

D)Itcanbeagoodthing.D)它可能是件好事。

【听音指导】本题是细节加评论题,关键要弄清楚各选项中it所指代的内容。本文出

现频率最多的词是stress,可大胆推测,此题考查的是对stress的评述。本题又是此长对

话的最后一题,答案应在听力对话的后两句。

女士:那么,到底为什么你的工作以紧张出名呢?

男士:当人们束手无策或感觉被控制时,就会有压力感。金融市场上的交易正是这两者

的结合。

女士:你晚上如何放松?

男士:我很少做与工作有关的事情,所以很容易逃脱市场。我通常去健身房或是出去跑

男士:消除压力没有特定的法宝。总的来说,我发现我所做的一切对我来说都是有效的。

女士:你是否因压力大而考虑换工作呢?

男士:因为压力的因素我曾考虑过离开我的工作。但是,我认为压力是一件好事。如果

运用得当,压力实际上是有益的。

PassageOne

篇章结构

本次四级听力篇章从内容难度上来讲,比2009年6月的更难。此篇文章属于天文类,

讲的是除地球以外的星球上形成生命的可能性。曾经科学家们认为其他星球上存在生命的可

能性不大,但是现在科学家在渐渐地定位那些有可能会形成生命的地方。文章对此举了一个

例子,就是木星的一个卫星,叫木卫二。

词汇点拨

话题词汇

nitrogenn.氮

planetn.行星,星球

难句解析

arlytimes,peoplehavebeenfascinatedwiththeideaoflife

existingsomewhereelbesidearth.

【解析】sinceearlytimes作时间状语,主句主语为people,谓语为befascinated

with,即“对……着迷”,着迷的对象是ideaoflife,existingsomewhereelbesides

earth为现在分词作定语修饰名词life。

beshavealsomadescientiststhinkthatunderitssurfaceEuropa

hasarockycoregivingoffvolcanicheat.

【解析】本句主句部分谓语成分为.,让某人做某事,that引出think

的从句。从句的主语为Europa,givingoffvolcanicheat作定语修饰has的宾语arocky

core。

试题详解

26.A)Therewerenoplanetswithoutmoons.A)除了卫星外没有行星。

22

B)TherewasnoairorwateronJupiter.B)在木星上没有空气或水。

C)Lifewasnotpossibleinouterspace.C)在外空是没有生命的。

D)ThemysteryoflifecouldnotberesolvedD)生命的奥秘是不能解决的。

【听音指导】预览选项,可知本题考查细节事实题。鉴于此题位于本短文的第一题,答

案应在最初几句中找到,具体的说,是在开头30秒。选项D与其他三项明显不同,可初步

排除。听音时关注noplanets,noairorwater还是nolife。

【正确项分析】第一题问的是科学家曾经(once)相信什么事实?那么根据我们的理解,

应该是他们认为外太空不可能存在生命。这个答案出现在原文的第二句,原文是Until

recently,scientistsbelievedthatlifeonotherplanetswasjustahopefuldream,

意为科学家们认为在其他星球上存在生命只不过是个充满希望的梦。故选择C项。

27.A)Ithasanumberofactivevolcanoes.A)有很多活火山。

B)Ithasanatmosphereliketheearth’s.B)有像地球上的大气层。

C)Ithasalargeoceanunderitssurface.C)在它的表面有一个大海洋。

D)Ithasdeepcavesveralmileslong.D)有几英里长的深洞穴。

【听音指导】通过选项即可确定本题为对于某一事物的细节描述题,所以首先要解决各

选项中it所指的内容。由第一题选项可初步推测,本题很可能考查的是对一个星球的描述。

【正确项分析】问题为科学家在木卫二星球上找到什么,那么应该是Spaceprobes

haveprovidedevidencethatEuropahasalargeoceanunderitssurface,意为

航空观测镜发现了星球表面下有个大的海洋。C选项与原文一模一样。

28.A)Lightisnotanesntialelementtoit.A)光不是必备因素。

B)Lifecanforminveryhottemperatures.B)生命在很热的温度下能够形成。

C)Everyformoflifeundergoevolution.C)每种生命的形成都需要进化。

D)Oxygenisnotneededforsomelifeforms.D)氧在生命形成过程中没有必要。

【听音指导】根据惯例,最后一个问题答案出现在篇章结束前三十秒左右,选项均涉及

生命形成因素,分别为light,hottemperatures,evolution和oxygen,根据这些信息,

可轻易在短文结束前找到答案。

【正确项分析】注意转折连词but前后,原文为Untilrecently,scientiststhought

,placeshavebeenfoundonearththatarein

teria,

primitiveformsoflife,havebeenenthere。意为科学家一直以为光是很重要的,

但是现在他们发现完全黑暗的地方—比如几英里深的洞里,也有生命,即细菌。可见,光不

是必备因素,选项A正确。

从很早以前,人们一直迷恋着地球以外的地方也存在生命的想法。直到近来,科学家们

认为在其他星球上存在生命只不过是个充满希望的梦。但是,现在他们开始查找可能有生命

的地方。1997年,科学家们在恒星附近,例如太阳,发现了行星的踪迹。科学家们现在认

为生命可能我们更近,就在太阳系内。科学家们正密切关注的地方是木卫二,木星的一个卫

二表层有散发出火山热的岩石核心。火山活动的水和热量是生命形成的两个基本条件。第三

个是一些基本的化学物质,如碳、氧和氮。科学家们认为在木卫二海洋底部可能存在这样的

化学成分。他们可能已经创造了生命或即将产生生命。你可能在想光也是生命形成的必要条

件。直到最近,科学家们仍认为光是不可或缺的。但现在已经在地球上发现,海洋几英里之

下的黑暗的洞穴内有细菌,即原始生命形式的存在。所以不能排除缺乏光的木卫二地下海洋

有生命形成的可能性。

26.根据短文,科学家曾相信什么?

27.科学家们发现关于木卫二的什么信息?

28.最近,科学家就生命的形成了解到什么?

PassageTwo

篇章结构

本篇讲述医生发现用纸记录下的东西比口语交流的信息更加准确和稳定。问题源自一位

医生在对一个孩子的家庭口述交待了出院后的注意事项之后,发现这些亲属们竟然记不清到

难句解析

steningtoherwereahalfadozenotherfamilymembers.

24

【解析】此句为倒装句,强调listeningtoher,主语为ahalfadozenotherfamily

members。正常语序为:Ahalfadozenotherfamilymemberswerealsolistening

toher.

hemhadheardthesimpleinstructionsIhavegivenjustafew

hoursbefore,buttheyhavethreeorfourdifferentversions.

【解析】本句两分句由连词but连接,hadheard为过去完成时,表示在家人问玛雅

医生之前就发生了此动作。Ihavegivenjustafewhoursbefore做定语修饰thesimple

instructions,省略连接词that。

试题详解

29.A)Whethertheyshouldtakethechildhome.A)他们是否应该将孩子带回

家。

B)’sinstructionxactlywere.B)玛雅医生的医嘱到底是什么。

C)Whoshouldtakecareofthechildathome.C)谁在家照顾孩子。

D)Whenthechildwouldcompletelyrecover.D)什么时候这个孩子能完全恢复。

【听音指导】浏览四个选项,应注意到都为wh-开头的疑问词,且提到了医生和孩子,

takecareof以及recover,可初步推测此题涉及的场景为医院,病人为孩子。

【正确项分析】问题为孩子的家人因为什么而争论,原文为thefamilyaskedherto

ttleanargumentthey’dbeenhavingoverexactlywhatadviceshehadgiven,

意为亲属们就医生到底讲过什么建议争论不休,问医生如何解决。选项B中的instructions

与原文的advice同义,选项B正确。

30.A)Sheencouragesthemtoaskquestionswhenindoubt.A)她鼓励他们

拿不准时就提问题。

B)Shemakesthemwritedownallherinstructions.B)她让他们记下她的医嘱。

C)Shehasthemactoutwhattheyaretodoathome.C)她让他们把将在家

里做的事情表演出来。

D)Sheasksthemtorepeatwhataresuppodtodo.D)她让他们复述要做

的事。

【听音指导】由第一题的选项可很有把握地推测she指代的是DoctorMyer,而与医

生相对的多半为病人。注意关键词askquestion,writedown,actout和repeat。

【正确项分析】玛雅医生如何确定病人完全明白了自己的建议呢?原文为Sheasks

themtotellherwhattheythinktheyaresuppodtodo,原文的tellher与选项

D中的关键词repeat一致,选项D为正确答案,

31.A)Itlacksthestabilityoftheprintedword.A)它缺乏印刷体的稳定性。

B)Itcontainsmanygrammaticalerrors.B)它包含许多语法错误。

C)Itisheavilydependentonthecontext.C)它十分依赖上下文语境。

D)Itfacilitatesinterpersonalcommunication.D)它有助于人际交往。

【听音指导】本题为短文最后一题,应在文章最后出现。需要注意关键字stability,

errors,context和communication。

【正确项分析】此题是典型的篇章问题考法。答案出现在结尾处,问题是作者对于人类

口语交流(humanspeech)总结了什么。原文为humanspeechlacksthestability

andpermanenceoftheprintedword,与选项A一致。

乔安娜•玛雅是一名急诊室医生。早年,她曾医治了一名二度烧伤的孩子。这个孩子接

受完治疗准备出院时,玛雅医生告诉孩子父母在家如何照顾孩子,在场的还有六位家庭其他

成员。几小时后,当她来与孩子再见的时候,孩子一家请她解决争论,他们一直争论她的医

嘱到底是什么。“因为我已经告诉过他们,所以我很惊讶。”她说,“他们所有的人都在短短

几小时前听到了我给出的简单的医嘱,但是他们有三、四个不同的版本。最基本的细节都不

清楚且很困惑。我很吃惊,因为这些是聪明人。”这一段插曲给了玛雅医生第一个线索,而

这迟早每个医生都会懂得,即大多数人听的不准确。

如今,玛雅说她反复重复医嘱,甚至对一些病人进行现场核查。她要他们告诉她他们应

该做的事。她还根据病人的情况提供可带回家的打印文本。玛雅医生的听众都是正常人。当

面对新资料或难度较大的资料时,几乎所有的听众都会面临挑战,因为人类口语缺乏书面文

字的稳定性和永久性。口头交流速度快但持续时间短。

29.孩子的家庭成员在医院里争论的是什么?

30.为确保病人明白她的医嘱,玛雅医生做了什么?

31.说话者如何评述人类口语?

PassageThree

篇章结构

此篇讲的是商务工作中对员工的激励机制。主要内容为公司对员工的激励机制并非是人

们通常以为的工资或者工作环境,而是工作中的挑战。

词汇点拨

challenginga.挑战性的;logicala.合理的;manuallyad.手动地;identifyv.认

同;tediousa.单调的,沉闷的

jobcurity职业安全感

laborrelations劳资关系

难句解析

’slogicaltosuppothatthingslikegoodlaborrelations,goodworking

conditions,goodwagesandbenefitsandjobcuritymotivateworkers,butone

expert,FrederickHerzbergarguedthatsuchconditionsdonotmotivate

workers.

【解析】此句结构是由转折连词but引导的两个分句。前面一个分句中,it做形式主

语,后面的不定式tosuppo是真正主语。That引导宾语从句,介词like以及其引导内

容做things的后置定语。后面一个分句中,oneexpert与FrederickHerzberg为同位

语,that后引导宾语从句。

r,evenwiththedevelopmentofcomputersandrobotics,there’re

alwaysplentyofboring,repetitiveandmechanicaljobsandlotsofunskilled

peoplewhohavetodothem.

【解析】本句主句为therebe句型,常见的短语withthedevelopmentof作时间

状语,意为“随着……的发展”。jobs和people为表语,三个并列形容词boring,repetitive

和mechanical一起修饰jobs,who引导的定语从句修饰先行词unskilledpeople

试题详解

32.A)Jobcurity.A)职业安全感。

B)Goodlaborrelations.B)愉快的劳资关系。

C)Challengingwork.C)挑战性的工作。

D)Attractivewagesandbenefits.D)有吸引力的工资和利益。

【听音指导】预览选项中的关键词jobcurity,laborrelation,work,和wages

andbenefits可知,此篇短文主旨与工作有关,可初步推测与人们对工作的满足感有关。

【正确项分析】此题问的是主题,到底什么可以真正激励员工好好工作呢。原文

Motivators,incontrast,includethingssuchashavingachallengingand

interestingjob,recognitionandresponsibility,连接词incontrast附近出现了答案,

意为起到激励作用的东西包括工作的挑战性和趣味性,以及工作中需承担的责任即最终获得

的认可。所以选选项C,即挑战性的工作。

【干扰项分析】原文首句虽谈及选项A、B、D各项内容,但是but转折后全盘否定

butoneexpert,FrederickHerzbergarguedthatsuchconditionsdonotmotivate

workers。故可全部排除。

33.A)Manytediousjobscontinuetobedonemanually.A)许多单调工作继

续由手工做。

B)Moreandmoreunskilledworkerswilllojobs.B)越来越多的非技术工人

将失业。

C)Computerswillchangethenatureofmanyjobs.C)电脑将改变很多工作性

质。

D)Boringjobswillgraduallybemadeenjoyable.D)无聊的工作将变得快乐。

【听音指导】从选项内容可知,本题考查的是工作的性质,应注意关键提示词—tedious,

27

unskilledandlojob,computer和boringandenjoyable。

【正确项分析】此题问到作者对电脑信息时代总结了什么。从原文中However,even

withthedevelopmentofcomputersandrobotics,there’realwaysplentyof

boring,repetitiveandmechanicaljobsandlotsofunskilledpeoplewhohaveto

dothem.,连接词however后出现了答案。意为,尽管电脑和机器人技术不断发展,还

是存在无聊的、重复的、机械性的工作,需要人力完成,对应到正确答案A选项中的tedious

以及manually。

34.A)Offerthemchancesofpromotion.A)提供给他们晋升机会。

B)Improvetheirworkingconditions.B)改善他们的工作条件。

C)Encouragethemtocompetewitheachother.C)鼓励他们相互竞争。

D)Givethemresponsibilitiesaspartofateam.D)给他们责任,让他们成为团

队一部分。

【听音指导】此题为一细节题。选项B与其他三项明显不同,可初步排除。听音时,

注意选项中的promotion,compete和team。

【正确项分析】原文中激励超市员工工作是个案,但是问题本身针对的是总结性的答案。

即出现在forexample前的总结句:Givethemsomeresponsibilities,notas

individuals,butasapartofateam。but后强调的是team,正确答案为选项D。

35.A)Theywillnotbringrealbenefitstothestaff.A)他们将不能给员工带来

真正利益。

B)Theyconcernasmallnumberofpeopleonly.B)他们与少数人相关。

C)Theyarearbitrarilytbytheadministrators.C)是管理人员随意制定的。

D)Theyarebeyondthecontrolofordinaryworkers.D)他们超出了普通工人

的控制。

【听音指导】首先意识到最后一题的答案应在文章结束前几句找,由各选项可知,所描

述的对象并不是积极的,而是有负面影响的。

【正确项分析】为什么金钱诱惑刺激不了工作热情,答案出现在结尾前30秒处,即

Suchvaluesaremorelikelytomotivateworkersthanfinancialtargetswhich

automaticallyonlyconcernafewpeople,意为团队精神更能激起工作热情,因为金

钱利益最终只会与团队中的个别人相关。答案为选项B。

认为良好的劳资关系、愉悦的工作环境、较高的工资和福利待遇、工作安全性好能够激

励员工,这是完全符合逻辑的。然而,专家弗洛迪克•赫兹伯格认为这些条件并不能激励员

工,只是让员工得到满足的物质条件而已。相反,激励因素包括挑战性和趣味性的工作、认

可和责任等。然而,即使随着计算机技术和机器人技术的发展,仍有大量无聊的、重复的和

机械的工作,并且还必须有大量做这些工作的非技术人员。所以管理人员如何激励从事这种

工作的人呢?一种解决办法就是让他们承担责任,不是作为个人,而是作为团队。例如,有

些超市把办公室人员、填货人和收银员编成一组,让他们决定进什么货、产品如何陈列等。

现在很多人在谈论员工认同的公司的价值观和公司文化的重要性,如怎样成为最好的旅馆连

锁,或在某一特定领域做最好的,用户最亲善的或者最可靠的产品。这样的价值观比那些只

与少数人有关的财务目标更有可能激励员工。不幸的是,只有个别公司才会有这样的目标,

当然,并不是所有的竞争公司在业界都能做成最好的。

32:根据弗洛迪克•赫兹伯格的观点,什么可以激励员工?

33:说话者就计算机时代的工作发表了什么观点?

34:一些超市为激励员工采取了什么措施?

35:为什么说财务目标不太可能激发员工?

篇章结构

此次复合式听写的话题比较专业,介绍了三类写作题材,即事实性的,描述性的和解说

性的。短文结构,先总后分。原文中充斥了许多长难词,致使考生预读时就一头雾水。尤其

试题详解

36.【听音指导】根据空前后内容,可推测此空意为“归类成……”,轻易可以联想到常

考词classified,构成beclassifiedinto结构。

37.【听音指导】事实性写作方式会提供什么样的信息,在预读时,很容易将其推测为

形容词,但background是常见词,而backgroundinformation作为背景知识,在日常

生活中常常用到。

38.【听音指导】此空中的内容与book,longpiece并列,可知此空填写的词为名词,

且与book等为一类。album发音特殊,一般不会与其他词相混,应注意拼写。

39.【听音指导】由题意很容易判断此部分应为音乐鉴赏课,此空的难点在于

appreciation(“鉴赏”)这个词的拼写。appreciate作动词,意为鉴赏,此空需要其名词形

式。

40.【听音指导】为研究人文学科提供环境,其中context是高频词,几乎在每次考试

中都能考到,此题不易失分。

41.【听音指导】此句话应理解为“正如名字所显示的那样”,立刻可以联系到show等

词,而原文中的imply在以往四级考试中也反复出现。

42.【听音指导】描述性的写作能提供什么?立刻就想到形象、印象。image这个词很

容易填出。

43.【听音指导】作曲家所用的音乐器具,自然为musicalinstrument。然而此空需

要注意的是它的复数形式。

44.【听音指导】此段讲述的是descriptivewriting,此句位于本段的最后一句,应

为总结性话语。答案为Descriptivewritinginthehumanities,particularlyin

literatureisoftenmixedwithcriticalwriting。particularly可替换为especially,

bemixedwith意为“与……混合”。也可写为Descriptivewritingismixedwithcritical

writing,那么既保留了句子的大意,而且也能规避如particularly这样的长难词。采分点

为descriptivewriting和criticalwriting。

45.【听音指导】此段讲述的是processingwriting,按照惯例此句为对其的总结性解

释。shootafilm,意为拍电影。采分点为howtodosomething和technique。

30

46.【听音指导】整篇文章为总分式,先总述了三种写作题材,然后分别讲述每种写作

题材的适用范围。此空独立成句,很可能论述三部分适用范围的交集。采分点为morethan

onetypeoftechniqueisudinwriting。

全文精译

在人文学科中,作者可以通过多种写作方式告知读者信息。这些方法可分为三类信息写

作题材:事实性的,描述性的和解说性的。事实性写作提供了一位作家、作曲家或艺术家或

者是一种音乐、文学或艺术的背景信息。事实性写作包括封面上的说明和专辑封面,较长的

作品如音乐鉴赏课中可能读到的描述一种音乐风格的文章。这种写作题材为人文学科研究提

供了依据。

正如它的名字所暗示的,描写性写作指简单的描述或为一段音乐、一种艺术和文学树立

一种形象。例如,描写性写作可能介绍一位艺术家在画中用过的色彩,或一位乐器作曲家在

音乐作品中所用的乐器。通过具体描述,在读者的脑海里留下声音的图画。人文学科中的描

写性写作,特别在文学中,经常与评论式写作共同使用。

解说性写作是解释会带来某种结果的一系列的行动。它告诉读者如何做某事,例如,拍

电影的技术。这种写作往往用于艺术中,因为理解艺术家如何创造了一种特定效果是很重要

的。在一篇指定的信息写作中,作者可以运用多种写作技巧。

本文提要:

本篇属于科技类文章,主要围绕时间和运动的关系展开;用谚语开篇引出全文,很有吸

引力。中间引用爱因斯坦的相对论相关概念,具体阐述主题。

答案:

e

解析:文章描述:运动越快,时间变慢得也更快,这也就意味着宇航员有朝一日可以在

太空中生存(survive)很久,如此一来他们就可以在遥远(distant)的未来重返地球。

t

解析:这个空在future前面,所以预判该填形容词常用搭配无非near,clo,distant

等,根据听力原文,如上所述,确定是遥远的未来;填distant。

rd

解析:速度达到光速,时间静止;根据常识推断,若速度快于光速,那么时间将后退,

即movebackward,根据听力原文可确定这一推断。

ered

解析:空缺部分作后置定语,从音频可知是发现(discovered),用其过去完成时态。

ific

解析:该空后接名词,应为形容词,scientific。

解析:

70

原文描述,实验已证明运动加快会使宇航员的时间延长。这里的运动为motion。

ted

解析:爱因斯坦在1905年时作出预测,用过去时predicted。

uced

解析:这是爱因斯坦提出的一个相对时间的概念,用过去时introduced。

veataspeedgreaterthanlight,andtherefore,mightrveasour

passportstothepast.

解析:当下进行的研究旨在证实,是否有这样的物质,即能以超光速运行,并可以作为

我们回归过去的“通行证”。填句只需意思相近就可以,关键抓住核心:超光速运行,可帮

助人类回到过去。

ohavebeenapartofhumanityforaslongashumanhaveexisted.

解析:人类对时间的节约,获取,浪费以及流失等的着迷,自人类诞生以来就一直是其

生活的一部分。核心:人类诞生以来就一直存在的,如影随形的。

efinitionoftimeforexperimentalpurpos,asthatwhichis

measuredbyaclock.

解析:人类也对时间的含义非常着迷,爱因斯坦就曾提出一个试验性的定义,这个定义

下的时间可以用钟表来测量。核心意思:试验性的定义,可以用钟表来测量。
