大学英语四级分类模拟题373
(总分:100.00,做题时间:90分钟)
一、Reading Comprehension(总题数:0,分数:0.00)
二、Section A(总题数:1,分数:30.00)
Domestic laws, not a global treaty, are the way to fight global warming. Governments like to cite
1 constraints (限制)—such as meeting the conditions for an international difficulty—when
pushing through unpopular policies. But with measures to 2 with climate change, the opposite
prevails. Each round of intergovernmental talks on cutting 3 and compensating victims seems to
achieve less than the one before. Meanwhile, according to a new study the number of new domestic
environment laws rose quickly. And the overall trend is a strong increase in legal activism. Last
year Mexico passed an important law to guide all its climate-change 4 .
Some people define what counts as a climate law is hard when so much 5 the environment. The number
of laws alone is not the 6 measure: some are comprehensive and others specific. Rules set by other
layers of government may 7 more than the national kind. And just because a law passes does not
mean it will do any good. Yet Sam Fankhauser of the London School of Economics says the rise in
national legislation helps stop the skeptics
act alone on climate change. He also points out that many big countries still have a way to go.
The study 8 the weak link between global action and domestic change. Holding a big climate
conference 9 a series of laws a couple of years later. But by and 10 voters appear more willing
to accept domestic environmental laws than international ones.
A. affects F. external K. matter
B. crucial G. internal L. policies
C. deal H. large M. promote
D. effects I. less N. prompts
E. emissions J. literally O. reveals(分数:30.00)
解析:F[解析] 形容词辨析题 。分析句子结构可知,空格处应该填入形容词,作名词constraints的定语。
该句的意思是: 各国政府在推行一些不受欢迎的政策时喜欢引用 ---|||________|||---限制——例如:为
了应对某个国际困难需要满足某些条件。举的例子里提到了international diffic ulty“国际困难”,这
应该是一个外部条件,external“外部的”符合原文要求,故为正确 答案。
解析:C[解析] 动词辨析题。空格前是不定式符号to,所以空格处只能填动词原形,并且 要和介词with
搭配。原文大意是:但是在气候变化的措施方面,与之相反的方法更易于接受。措施是 为了“解决”问题,
deal“解决,处理”符合句意,敞为正确答案。
解析:E[解析] 名词辨析题。空格处作cutting的宾语,且由and可知,空格处与victims并列,所以空
格处是名词。原句的大意是:政府间每一轮关于消减 ---|||________|||---和补偿受害者 的谈判,所取得
的效果看上去都比上一次差。政府间的谈判是围绕环境展开的,“消减”的宾语选择em issions“排放物”
更符合语境,故为正确答案。
解析:L[解析] 名词辨析题。空 格处需要一个名词作动词guide的宾语中心词。本句话的意思是:去年墨
西哥通过了一部重要法律, 用来指导该国所有与气候变化相关的 ---|||________|||---。分析名词备选项
的 含义,只有policies“政策”符合语境,故为正确答案。
解析:A[解析] 动词辨析题。空 格处需要一个动词作从句的谓语,并且要与“环境”构成语义上的衔接关
系,从句的主语so much 是个抽象名词,可以推出这个动词需要用第三人称单数形式。本句的意思是:一
些人认为,当如此多的因 素 ---|||________|||---环境时,很难定义一部气候法的内容。综合考虑几个备
选项中的第三人称单数动词,affects“影响”符合条件,故为正确答案。
解析:B[解析] 形容词辨析题。空格前是定冠词the,后边是名词measure,所以空格处需要一个形容词。
本句 提到,单是法律数量的多少并不是 ---|||________|||---措施。备选项中只有cruci al“至关重要的”
意思符合要求,故为正确答案。


解析:K[解析] 动词 辨析题。空格前面是情态动词may,可判断空格处应填入动词原形。本句的意思是:
由政府其他部门制 定的规定可能比国家的规定更 ---|||________|||---。因为部门制定的规定更加详细,< br>更有针对性,所以也许比国家级的规定更重要。故matter为正确答案。
解析:O[解析] 动词辨析题。空格处需要一个动词作整个句子的谓语,它的主语是study研究”,是一个
抽象名词, 谓语要用第三人称单数形式。本句的意思是:这项研究 ---|||________|||---全球行动和 国内
变化的松散的联系。综合考虑只有reveals“揭示,揭露”符合要求,故为正确答案。
解析:N[解析] 动词辨析题。空格处作动名词短语Holding a big climate conference的谓语,应该是第
三人称单数形式。本句的意思是:举办一场大型气候会议可以 ---|||________|||---其后几年一系列法律
的出台。综合考虑只有prompts “促使,导致”符合要求,故为正确答案。promote“促进”,这个词在意
思上是对的,但不是第 三人称单数形式,故排除。
解析:H[解析] 固定搭配题。空格前是and,前后两个词可能是并列 关系。但是因为and前面的by应是介
词或副词,备选单词中没有介词,带入副词也不符合语境,所以 这个思路行不通,转而考虑固定搭配。by and
large是一个固定词组,表示“大体上,总体 上”。代入原句,意思是:但是,总体上选民更愿意接受国
内环境法而不是国际环境法。所以large 符合题目要求,为正确答案。
三、Section B(总题数:1,分数:40.00)
Why Teenagers Really Do Need an Extra Hour in Bed?

A.
a British newspaper headline in 2007 after a talk I gave at an academic conference. One disbelieving
reader responded:
B. That was a typical reaction to work I was reporting at the time on teenage sleep patterns and
their effect on performance at school. Six years on there is growing acceptance that the structure
of the academic day needs to take account of adolescent sleep patterns. The latest school to adopt
a later start time is the UCL Academy in London; others are considering following suit.
C. So what are the facts about teenage sleep, and how should society adjust to these needs? The
biology of human sleep timing, like that of other mammals, changes as we age. This has been shown
in many studies. As adolescence begins, bedtimes and waking times get later. This trend continues
until 19.5 years in women and 21 in men. Then it reverses. At 55 we wake at about the time we
woke prior to adolescence. On average this is two hours earlier than adolescents. This means that
for a teenager, a 7 a.m. alarm call is the equivalent of a 5 a.m. start for a person in their
50s.
D. Precisely why this is so is unclear but the shifts related with changes in hormones (荷尔
蒙) at adolescence and the decline in those hormones as we age. However, biology is only part
of the problem. Additional factors include a more relaxed attitude to bedtimes by parents, a
general disregard for the importance of sleep, and access to TVs, DVDs, PCs, gaming devices, cell
phones and so on, all of which promote alertness and eat into time available for sleep.
E. The amount of sleep teenagers get varies between countries, geographic region and social class,
but all studies show they are going to bed later and not getting as much sleep as they need because
of early school starts.
F. Mary Carskadon at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, who is a pioneer in the area
of adolescent sleep, has shown that teenagers need about 9 hours a night to maintain full alertness
and academic performance. My own recent observations at a UK school in Liverpool suggested many
were getting just 5 hours on a school night. Unsurprisingly, teachers reported students dozing
in class.
G. Evidence that sleep is important is overwhelming. Elegant research has demonstrated its
critical role in memory improvement and our ability to generate wise solutions to complex problems.
Sleep disruption may increase the level of the stress. Excited behaviors, lack of empathy, sense
of humor and mood are similarly affected. All in all, a tired adolescent is a moody, insensitive,
angry and stressed one. Perhaps less obviously, sleep loss is associated with metabolic (新陈


代谢的) changes. Long-term lack of sleep might be an important factor for negative conditions
such as diabetes (糖尿病), overweight and high blood pressure.
H. Adolescents are increasingly using stimulants to compensate for sleep loss, and caffeinated
(含咖啡因的) andor sugary drinks are the usual choice. So a caffeinated drink late in the day
delays sleep at night. Tiredness also increases the likelihood of taking up smoking.
I. In the US, the observation that teenagers have biologically delayed sleep patterns compared
to adults prompted several schools to put back the start of the school day. An analysis of the
impact by Kyla Wahlstrom at the University of Minnesota found that academic performance was
enhanced, as was attendance. Sleeping in class declined, as did self-reported depression. In the
UK, Monkseaton High School near Newcastle instituted a 10 am start in 2009 and saw a progress
in academic performance.
J. However, a later start by itself is not enough. Society in general, and teenagers in particular,
must start to take sleep seriously. Sleep is not a luxury but a fundamental biological need,
enhancing creativity, productivity, mood and the ability to interact with others.
K. If you are dependent upon an alarm clock, or your parents, to get you out of bed; if you take
a long time to wake up; if you feel sleepy and impatient during the day; if your behavior is overly
impulsive, it means you are probably not getting enough sleep. Take control. Ensure the bedroom
is a place that promotes sleep—dark and not too warm—don
for at least half an hour before trying to sleep and avoid bright lights. Try not to nap during
the day, and seek out natural light in the morning to adjust the body clock and sleep patterns
to an earlier time. Avoid caffeinated drinks after lunch.
L. It is my strongly held view, based upon the evidence, that the efforts of dedicated (专注
的) teachers and the money spent on school facilities will have a greater impact and education
will be more rewarding when, collectively, teenagers, parents, teachers and school governors start
to take sleep seriously. In the universal language of school reports: we must do better.(分
数:40.00)
(1).In the US and the UK, several schools that delayed the start of the school day witnessed a
progress in academic performance.(分数:4.00)
解析:I[解析] 细节归纳题。由题干中的In the US and the UK,the start of the school day及academic
performance定位 到I段。I段主要讲述英美一些学校推迟上学时间所产生的影响。英美的一些学校注意到

四、Section C(总题数:0,分数:0.00)
五、Passage One(总题数:1,分数:15.00)
With the unemployment rate topping 8% and the government $$16 trillion in debt, iteasy to question
why taxpayers are spending $$2.5 billion on an SUV-sized Mars rover (探测车) named Curiosity, which
landed successfully on the red planet in the early hours of Monday. Couldnthis money go toward
something closer to home, such as providing shelter for the homeless or building roads? Yes, it
could. But this kind of thinking is shortsighted.
The Mars project is the latest manifestation of America
unanswerable questions and take on new challenges. To paraphrase President John F. Kennedy,
America does things like this not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
Getting the probe down safely on Mars, after a 350 million mile journey, was certainly no easy
feat. Virtually all the technology used in the approach and landing was new, or used in new ways.
Once settled in, Curiosity should be a particularly awe-inspiring project. It is designed to shed
light on big questions: Could life forms have ever existed on Mars? Might they still exist? And
are we alone in the universe?
When budgets are tight, space projects such as Curiosity come in for particular abuse. They are
often portrayed as complicated flights of odd ideas. They are not. They are both inspirational


and immensely practical. Technology is, after all, an engine of economic growth. If that is a
goal, as well it should be, why not support a program that makes science exciting and showcases
some of the most interesting things that technology can do? One of the main benefits of projects
like this one is to promote a confident America. Throughout history, nations that explore, and
engage in science, lead the world. Beginning in the 15th century, for example, European nations
sent sailors around the globe and provided the impetus for thinkers such as Copernicus, Galileo
and Newton to invent modern physics and astronomy. Not coincidentally, Europe came to dominate
the world until the dawn of the 20th century.
Those who would slash space program budgets apparently havenlearned historylessons and don
see the great possibilities that the future presents—possibilities reflected in every image
transmitted back from the rover.(分数:15.00)
(1).Why is it easy to question why taxpayers(分数:3.00)
e Curiosity landed on the wrong planet.
e the economic situation is depressed. √
e the money should be spent on the roads.
e Curiosity is meaningless and impractical.
解析:[解析] 由题干中的easy to question和Curiosity定位到原文第一段第一句。
细节辨认题。本题考查人们质疑 “好奇者号”的原因。定位句中由with引导的介词短语暗示条件,表明了
人们质疑“好奇者号”的原 因。由定位句可知,当前的形势是失业率超过8%且政府负债16万亿美元,换
种说法就是经济形势比较 严峻,故B“因为经济形势严峻”为本题答案。A“因为‘好奇者号’登错了星球”
不符合原文,故排除 ;C“因为钱应该花在道路上”表达片面,故排除;D“因为‘好奇者号’无意义且不
实用”属于过度推 测,故排除。
(2).According to the first paragraph, the author believes that ______.(分数:3.00)
should view Curiosity in the long term √
ity will generate more benefits than other things
should not focus too much on economic situation
ity is more important than economic development
解析:[解析] 由题干中的According to the first paragraph和各选项定位到原文第一段最后一句。
观点态度题。本题考查作者 对“好奇者号”的态度。作者在前面提出了一些反对“好奇者号”的人的看法,
他们认为政府应当把钱花 在与民生关系更为紧密的方面,如修路等。作者随后表明了自己的观点:这种看
法是目光短浅的,因此, A“人们应当从长远角度看待‘好奇者号”’为本题答案。B“‘好奇者号’会产
生比其他东西更大的收 益”不符合原文,作者虽然在下文中提出“好奇者号”能带来巨大的收益,但并未
说明这些收益就能比其 他东西产生的收益大,故排除;C“人们不应过分关注经济形势”和D“‘好奇者号’
比经济发展更重要 ”均不符合原文,故排除。
(3).Although the project on Mars is not easy, America still insists it because ______.(分数:
3.00)
technology and new ways are found to solve the problems
project can shed light on many big questions
nation
nation has a restless desire to answer unanswerable questions and take on new
challenges √
解析:[解析] 由题干中的project on Mars和America still insists定位到原文第二段第一句。
细节辨认题。 定位句中,作者指出火星计划是美国想要解决之前无法解答的问题以及开始新挑战的无休止
欲望的最新表 现。而作者在定位句之后又借用了肯尼迪总统的话印证了定位句中提出的这种美国精神,即
迎难而上,接 受挑战,因此D“美国对于回答无法解答的问题以及开始新挑战有一种永不停息的欲望”为
本题答案。A “找到了解决这些问题的新技术和新方法”是对火星计划难度的一个说明,而不是美国坚持该
计划的原因 ,故排除;B“该计划能够弄清许多大问题”是火星计划的目的,故排除;C“该计划能够增加
美国的自 信心”是火星计划能够带来的益处,而不是美国坚持的原因,故排除。
(4).Why does the author say that space projects are practical?(分数:3.00)


e they make science exciting.
e they promote economic growth. √
e they increase America
e they show what technology can bring.
解析:[解析] 由题干中的space projects are practical定位到原文第四段第四、五句。 < br>细节辨认题。作者在定位句中首先指出太空计划不仅能鼓舞人心,而且非常实际,紧接着在下一句点明了< br>原因,即科技是经济发展的原动力,因此B“因为它们能推动经济发展”为本题答案。A“因为它们使科学
振奋人心”是太空计划带来的好处,但不是实际效益,故排除;C“因为它们增强了美国的国力”在原文 中
没有提及,故排除;D“因为它们表明了科技能够带来什么”也没有点明太空计划能够产生的实际效益 ,故
排除。
(5).The author uses Europe from 15th century to early 20th century as an example to suggest that
______.(分数:3.00)
s which send sailors around the globe will be stronger
s which develop physics and astronomy will be stronger
s which support science exploration will be stronger √
s which dominate the world will be stronger
解析:[解析] 由题干中的Europe from 15th century to early 20th century as an example定位到原
文第四段最后两句。
推理判断题。在定位句中,作者列举了15世 纪到20世纪初之间欧洲的状况。从15世纪开始,欧洲国家就
派出水手探索世界,并推动了诸如哥白尼 、伽利略和牛顿这样的思想家去开创现代物理学和天文学。之后
作者进一步指出,欧洲能够在此期间主导 世界绝非偶然。作者以此为例,是为了证明定位句的前一句:有
史以来,探索科学并应用科学的国家都称 霸世界,故C“支持科学探索的国家会变得更强大”为本题答案。
A“派出水手探索世界的国家会更强大 ”和B“发展物理学和天文学的国家会更强大”都是片面的说法,无
论是派出水手探索世界,还是发展物 理学和天文学,实际上都是进行科学探索的一个表现,而不是本质,
故排除;D“主导世界的国家会更强 大”属于本末倒置,一个国家强大之后才能主导世界,故排除。
六、Passage Two(总题数:1,分数:15.00)
The argument that global warming is causing more extreme weather is problematic because it presumes
the globe is warming. In fact, the global temperature trend line has been stable for more than
a dozen years, while carbon dioxide has increased 7%. If carbon dioxide was the driver, then why
have global temperatures stopped increasing?
Keep in mind that carbon dioxide represents 0.0395% of the Earthatmosphere. Arguing that carbon
dioxide is driving the small temperature variations in our climate as opposed to the oceans, which
cover 70% of the planet and have 1000 times the heat capacity of air, or the output of our sun,
is scientifically disturbing.
Weather is more publicized nowadays because of its impact on society and the constant push of
the global warming agenda. Increases in population result in more people being in the path of
Mother Naturegreat anger. Global warming activists attribute every major weather event to man
because they are either uninformed about history, or choose to ignore it. The latest claims
resulting from this series of hot and dry summers ignore the fact that more state heat records
were set in the 1930s than all other decades of the last century combined. Anyone remember the
Dust Bowl?
Seven major hurricanes hit the East Coast from 1954 to 1960. Now that we are in a pattern similar
to the 1950s, the East Coast is vulnerable once again, and attributing events like Hurricane Irene
to global warming is incorrect. All the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC.
projections for our climate have proved to be wrong. Global temperatures have stopped increasing
and are nowhere near estimates made a decade ago. The IPCC incorrectly predicted Arctic sea ice
would disappear by now.
After Katrina in 2005, more and stronger hurricanes were forecast to be the future. The Accumulated
Cyclone (气旋) Energy Index for the globe has instead declined to the lowest level in 30 years.


This does not mean we will not see warm weather and land- falling hurricanes. We are in a pattern
similar to the 1950s when US heat and drought as well as East Coast land-falling hurricanes were
quite prevalent.
Perhaps when the Atlantic becomes cold, we will be hearing Ice Age scares again as we did in the
1970s.(分数:15.00)
(1).According to the first paragraph, ______.(分数:3.00)
is less extreme weather
global temperature is always stable
globe is not warming √
dioxide delays global warming
解析:[解析] 由题干定位到原文第一段。
推理判断题。本题考查作者 在第一段表达的观点。由第一句可知,全球变暖正导致更多极端天气的说法是
有问题的,因为它是假设全 球正在变暖。由此推断,在作者看来,一些人首先提出了错误的假设,之后导
致了错误结论的产生,故C “全球并没有正在变暖”为本题答案。A“极端天气减少了”不符合原文,故排
除;B“全球温度一直稳 定”属于过度推断,作者在第二句提到全球气温在过去十多年的时间里一直很稳定,
但并不意味着全球气 温就一直保持这样的状态从没有变化过,故排除;D“二氧化碳延缓了全球变暖”不符
合原文,故排除。
(2).Why is it wrong to argue that carbon dioxide drives global warming?(分数:3.00)
e the sun and the oceans produce much more heat.
e carbon dioxide generates very little heat. √
e the air has a smaller heat capacity.
e there are many factors driving global temperature.
解析:[解析] 由题干中的carbon dioxide drives global warming定位到原文第二段第二句。
细节辨认题。由定位句可知,作者提出了一种观点:二氧 化碳推动气候变化从科学角度来看是错误的。因
为二氧化碳在大气层中的含量极低,而海洋的热容量和太 阳散发的热量远高于空气,因此把仅在空气中占
极少一部分的二氧化碳作为推动气候变化的元凶自然是不 合理的,故B“因为二氧化碳产生的热量极少”
为本题答案。A“因为太阳和海洋产生的热量更多”没有 直接回答问题,故排除;C“因为空气的热容量较
小”同样也是从侧面证明二氧化碳产热少,故排除;D “因为存在许多推动全球变暖的因素”没有直接论述
二氧化碳,故排除。
(3).The author suggests the global warming activists ______.(分数:3.00)
more attention to historical records √
not publicize weather too much
l increase in population
man for global warming
解析:[解析] 由题干中的the global warming activists定位到原文第三段第三句。
推理判断题。由定位句可知,作者 认为认同全球变暖理论的积极分子把每个大的天气事件都归咎于人类的
做法是不正确的,因为他们不知道 历史或选择忽略历史。可见,在作者看来,这些人在考虑气候变化因素
的时候,也应该把历史上的纪录作 为一个参考值,故A“多关注历史纪录”为本题答案。B“不要过多宣传
天气”是对原文的错误理解,作 者并未提出人们这种做法是不妥当的,故排除;C“控制人口增长”和这些
积极分子无关,故排除;D“ 为全球变暖而责备人类”是对原文的错误理解,故排除。
(4).Why is the East Coast vulnerable to hurricanes once again?(分数:3.00)
e it is in a pattern similar to the 1950s when hurricanes were prevalent. √
e the IPCC makes projections that are inaccurate and unreliable.
e global warming is proved to be no longer a factor contributing to hurricanes.
e people have not protected the environment in the correct way.
解析:[解析] 由题干中的the East Coast vulnerable to hurricanes once again定位到原文第四段第
一、二句。
推理判断题。由定位句可知,从1954年到1 960年,东海岸遭受到七次大的飓风袭击。而现在的天气形势
和20世纪50年代相似,东海岸地区又 一次脆弱不堪。由此推断,20世纪50年代是一个飓风在东海岸地


区频发的时期,现在 东海岸地区又进入了与其相似的天气形势中,因此很有可能发生飓风,故A“因为它
处于和20世纪50 年代相似的形势中,当时飓风频繁”为本题答案。B“因为IPCC做出了不准确也不可靠
的预测”和C “因为全球变暖被证明与飓风无关”与东海岸飓风频发无关,故排除;D“因为人们没有用正
确的方法保 护环境”未在原文中提及,故排除。
(5).What does the author imply in the last paragraph?(分数:3.00)
should not focus on climate change.
should not blame carbon dioxide any more.
should not overstate climate change. √
should not worry about extreme weather.
解析:[解析] 由题干中的the last paragraph定位到原文最后一段。
推理判断题。文章第一段中作者否定了全球正在变暖这个 所谓的事实,进而又通过一些科学数据提出认为
二氧化碳导致全球变暖的说法是站不住脚的,从而否定了 人类活动是全球变暖的主因这一论点。之后作者
又提出人们对天气变化往往都过于担心,并夸大人类对于 天气的影响。因此总的来说,作者在全文中传达
的观点就是人们过度推断、预测并夸大天气的变化。在最 后一段,作者提出当大西洋变冷的时候,我们或
许又会听到20世纪70年代听说过的冰河时代恐慌了, 故C“人们不应过度夸大气候变化”为本题答案。
A“人们不应该关注气候变化”和D“人们不应该担心 极端天气”是对原文的错误理解,故排除;B“人们
不应该再归罪于二氧化碳”不是作者通过最后一段要 传达的意思,故排除。
