2017年9月pets4公共英语四级考前冲刺试题及答案
The loudest outcry about poverty seemed to come in the wealthiest country by far in the world. According to most calculations, 21 most of the 1945-1970 period the United States had a standard of living well 22 Europe’s and many times above the world 23 . Yet 24 about grinding poverty, hunger, and dreadful need proceed more from the United States than from countries with one-fortieth of their living standard. An annual per capita income of eight dollars is 25 of much of Africa and Asia and not a little of South America.
It would seem strange to these people 26 they only aware of the fact that American radicals demand a 27 from an American 28 to the far corners of the globe so that the money thus saved can be spent raising the standard of living of 29 Americans. What this last point suggests is not so much that human 30 are never to be satisfied though this is doubtlessly true, and the American suburbanite 31 of his second car and his color TV suffers just as 32 as an African farmer in need of a second cow and a screen door. Rather, it suggests the 33 of contemporary breach of social 34 —the emancipation of the individual self.
People have learned to consider any 35 to personal fulfillment an 36 insult. They have greatly expanded the circle of self-awareness. They no longer accept sharp limitations on individual desires in the 37 of the group. The amount of potential human discontent has always been 38 — misery, failure, misfitting, bitterness, hatred, envy 39 telling. It has usually failed of 40 , and in the past it was accepted passively as being beyond help.

本文导航第1页英语知识运用第2页阅读理解一第3页阅读理解二第4页阅读理解三第5页阅读理解四第6页写作Passage one(The only way to travel is on foot)
The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists. Descriptions like ‘ Palaeolithic Man’， ‘Neolithic Man’， etc.， neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century， they will surely choose the label ‘Legless Man’。 Histories of the time will go something like this： ‘in the twentieth century， people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars， buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. This situation was forced upon earth dwellers of that time because of miles each day. But the surprising thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways， ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were marred by the presence of large car parks.
The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another， we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world - or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. Car drivers， in particular， are forever obsessed with the urge to go on and on： they never want to stop. Is it the lure of the great motorways， or what? And as for sea travel， it hardly deserves mention. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song： ‘I joined the navy to see the world， and what did I see? I saw the sea.’ The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says ‘I’ve been there. ’ You mention the remotest， most evocative place-names in the world like El Dorado， Kabul， Irkutsk and someone is bound to say ‘I’ve been there’ - meaning， ‘I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else. ’
When you travel at high speeds， the present means nothing： you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival， when it is achieved， is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this， you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality： you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot， on the other hand， lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing： he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes， his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound. Satisfying sleep will be his： the just reward of all true travellers.

A People won’t use their eyes.
B In traveling at high speed， eyes become useless.
C People can’t see anything on his way of travel.
D People want to sleep during travelling.
4、What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A Legs become weaker.
B Modern means of transportation make the world a small place.
C There is no need to use eyes.
D The best way to travel is on foot.
5. What does ‘a bird’s-eye view’ mean?
A See view with bird’s eyes.

D A scenic place.
答案详解
1.A 人们忘了用脚。答案在第一段：人类学家把以往年代的人们分别标上旧石器时代、新石器时代人，等等。干脆利落地总结了一个时期。当他们转向20世纪，他们肯定会标上“无脚的人”。因为在20世纪，人们忘了如何用脚走路。男人女人早年外出就坐车、公共汽车、火车。大楼里由电梯、自动扶梯，不需要人们走路。即使度假期间，他们也不用脚。他们筑有缆车道、滑雪载车和路直通山顶。所有的风景旅游区都有大型的汽车停车场。
B 人们喜欢汽车、公交车、火车等。
C 电梯、自动扶梯制止人们走路。
D 有许多交通运输工具。
2.A 人们的注意力在未来。见最后一段第一句话：当你高速旅行，现在等于零，你主要生活在未来，因为你大部分时间盯在前面到达的某个地方。真到了，又没有意义了，你还要再向前进。
B 是一种欢乐。
C 满足司机强烈的渴望。第二段中提及死机醉心于开车、不停车但不是快速前进着眼于未来。
D 生活的需要。这一条在第一段中提及这种情况是因为他们那异常的生活方法强加给时代的居民。这是指不用脚走路，而用一切代步器――交通运输工具，不是开快车。
3.C 人们在旅行途中什么都见不到。答案在第二段，由一地转向另一地，路上你什么都没有见到。乘飞机你只能俯视世界，火车，汽车，只见外界朦胧景象掠过窗子。海上旅游，只见到海。“我到过那里”此话含义就是“我以一小时一百英里在去某某地方时经过那里”。正因为如此，作者指出将来的历史书上会记录下：我们被剥夺了眼睛的应用。
A 人们不愿用眼睛。
B 在高速旅行中，眼睛没有用了。
D 旅行中，人们想睡觉。
4.D 旅行的最佳方式是走路。文章第一段、第二段分别讲述了旅行可不用脚、不用眼等情况。第三段，在讲述了人们只知向前向前，一切经历都停滞，现实不再是现实，还不如死的好。而用脚走路的旅行者总是生活再现实，对他来说旅行和到达是一回事，他一步一步走到某地，他用眼睛、耳朵，以至整个身体去体验现在时刻、旅行终点，他感到全身舒坦愉悦的疲劳，美美享受满足的酣睡;一切真正旅行者的真实报偿。这一段就是作者写文章的目的――走路是旅行的最佳方式。
A 脚变得软弱无力。
B 现代交通工具把世界变小。
C 没有必要用眼睛。
5.C 从高出向下看的景致：俯视。
A 用鸟的眼睛看景点。
B 鸟在看美景。
D 风景点。
本文导航第1页英语知识运用第2页阅读理解一第3页阅读理解二第4页阅读理解三第5页阅读理解四第6页写作Advertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. ‘It’s iniquitous，’ they say， ‘that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all， it’s the consumer who pays…’
The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine， it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance， price， etc.， from an advertisement.
Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements， but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are， too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful， witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.
We must not forget， either， that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers， commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper， or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!
Another thing we mustn’t forget is the ‘small ads.’ which are in virtually every newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance， you can find a job， buy or sell a house， announce a birth， marriage or death in what used to be called the ‘hatch， match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or ‘agony’ column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is!

3. Why do the critics criticize advertisers?

B. We can buy what we want.
C. Good quality products don’t need to be advertised.
D. Advertisement makes our life colorful.
5. The passage is

答案详解
1.C. 广告对社会的服务很有用。作者从三方面来叙述广告作用：第二段点出如果广告不为产品开辟广大的市场，我们就得付出很多钱，正是因为大量的广告费用，消费者的商品才会那么便宜。广告除销售商品外，其重要的功能在通知/告诉信息，有关家用商品的许多只是来自广告，还有新产品的介绍。第三段讲了美化环境功能。如果火车站的墙上和报上没有广告，那会怎么样。一幅悦人心目，机智的广告将改变一切。第四段讲了它为我们省钱：别忘了广告对我们口袋作出积极的贡献。报纸、电台、电视台公司没有这笔收入很难生存。我们的报纸，我们付给很少，或者说，我们能享受那么多的节目完全是因为广告商花的钱。如果要我们付报纸的全价，那我们要花多少钱!最后一段讲了各种专栏的功能。人们可以在这些栏目找工作、买卖房子、宣布婚丧嫁娶信息。这些都围着一个中心：广告对社会服务的有用性。
A. 广告。太笼统。
B. 广告之优点。文章不是讲优点，而是讲服务于社会的功能。
D. 广告费用。
2.A. 欣赏/赞赏。从上述注释也可推知是A项。最重要的，作者提出种种功能，是为了反驳第一段内提到的论点：完全是非生产企业每年吸收几百万镑，这说明这些大公司利润有多高。最重要的是消费者付的广告费等。反驳更说明了A项对。
B. 值得信任。
C. 批评。
D. 不满意。
3.A. 因为广告商常常爱吹。见难句译注1.。
B. 因为批评者认为广告浪费钱。
C. 因为广告促使消费者购买不必要的东西。
D. 因为消费者支付更多。
4. C. 优质产品不需要广告。一切产品都需要广告，新产品、老产品都需要。
A. 广告对我们的口袋作出贡献。
B. 我们可以买到我们所需的。
D. 广告使我们生活丰富多彩。这三条都提到也是真实的。
5. C. 文章一开始就提到对广告的批评，然后作者以对比的手法说明其功能。
A. 叙事。
B. 描写。
D. 议论。
本文导航第1页英语知识运用第2页阅读理解一第3页阅读理解二第4页阅读理解三第5页阅读理解四第6页写作When you think of the tremendous technological progress we have made， it’s amazing how little we have developed in other respects. We may speak contemptuously of the poor old Romans because they relished the orgies of slaughter that went on in their arenas. We may despise them because they mistook these goings on for entertainment. We may forgive them condescendingly because they lived 2000 years ago and obviously knew no better. But are our feelings of superiority really justified? Are we any less blood-thirsty? Why do boxing matches， for instance， attract such universal interest? Don’t the spectators who attend them hope they will see some violence? Human beings remains as bloodthirsty as ever they were. The only difference between ourselves and the Romans is that while they were honest enough to admit that they enjoyed watching hungey lions tearing people apart and eating them alive， we find all sorts of sophisticated arguments to defend sports which should have been banned long age; sports which are quite as barbarous as， say， public hangings or bearbaiting.
It really is incredible that in this day and age we should still allow hunting or bull-fighting， that we should be prepared to sit back and watch two men batter each other to pulp in a boxing ring， that we should be relatively unmoved by the sight of one or a number of racing cars crashing and bursting into flames. Let us not deceive ourselves. Any talk of ‘the sporting spirit’ is sheer hypocrisy. People take part in violent sports because of the high rewards they bring. Spectators are willing to pay vast sums of money to see violence. A world heavyweight championship match， for instance， is front page news. Millions of people are disappointed if a big fight is over in two rounds instead of fifteen. They feel disappointment because they have been deprived of the exquisite pleasure of witnessing prolonged torture and violence.
Why should we ban violent sports if people enjoy them so much? You may well ask. The answer is simple： they are uncivilized. For centuries man has been trying to improve himself spiritually and emotionally - admittedly with little success. But at least we no longer tolerate the sight madmen cooped up in cages， or public floggings of any of the countless other barbaric practices which were common in the past. Prisons are no longer the grim forbidding places they used to be. Social welfare systems are in operation in many parts of the world. Big efforts are being made to distribute wealth fairly. These changes have come about not because human beings have suddenly and unaccountably improved， but because positive steps were taken to change the law. The law is the biggest instrument of social change that we have and it may exert great civilizing influence. If we banned dangerous and violent sports， we would be moving one step further to improving mankind. We would recognize that violence is degrading and unworthy of human beings.
1. It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s opinion of nowadays’ human beings is
A. not very high. B. high.
C. contemptuous. D. critical.
2. The main idea of this passage is
A. vicious and dangerous sports should be banned by law.
B. people are willing to pay vast sums money to see violence.
C. to compare two different attitudes towards dangerous sports.
D. people are bloodthirsty in sports.
3. That the author mentions the old Romans is
A. To compare the old Romans with today’s people.
B. to give an example.
C. to show human beings in the past know nothing better.
D. to indicate human beings are used to bloodthirsty.
4. How many dangerous sports does the author mention in this passage?
A. Three. B. Five.
C. Six. D. Seven.
5. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is
A. that， by banning the violent sports， we human beings can improve our selves.
B. that， by banning the dangerous sports， we can improve the law.
C. that we must take positive steps to improve social welfare system.
D. to show law is the main instrument of social change.
答案详解
1. A. 不太高。文章一开始就点出科技巨大进步，而其他方面进展很少。人们以轻蔑的口气谈及可怜的古罗马人，因为他们欣赏竞技场上的屠杀。我们轻视他们，因为他们把这些屠杀视为娱乐。我们可以降阶/屈尊地谅解他们，因为他们生活在2000年前，显然，对好的东西不知道。在这里作者反问，我们的优越感是否正确呢?我们的嗜血性是不是少一些?为什么拳击比赛吸引那么许多人?在场的观赏者(观众)是不是也希望看到一些暴力呢?结论是：人类和过去一样残忍。唯一的不同点在于古罗马人很诚实，他们承认他们欣赏观看饥饿的狮子把人撕碎，活生生吃掉，而我们会找出各种精辟的理由来保卫早该制止的运动。第二段举出具体例子，如斗牛、拳击中把人打瘫在地、车赛中，车子碰撞起火，人们就坐在那里观看欣赏，参赛者是为了高报酬，观众付出大笔钱财是为了看到暴力。作者指出任何体育精神的说法纯粹是虚伪。如果一场打比赛(世界重量级冠军赛)，两轮而不是十五轮就告结束，成千上百万人们会感到失望――这些都证明人的卑下，不文明。这两段似乎也证明作者的观点应该是C项――蔑视的。但在第三段谈及，好几个世纪以来，人们一直试图在精神上和情感上改善自己，又得承认不怎么成功。可至少我们不再容忍疯人禁锢于笼中，当众鞭挞，以及其他许多过去普遍存在的野蛮行径。监狱也不再是过去那种令人窒息的禁锢之地，社会福利制度在全世界许多地方推行。在财富公平分配上也作了很大的努力。这些变化的出现不是因为人突然改善，而是在改变法律上采取了 积极的步骤。如果我们禁止危险的暴力体育项目，那么我们在改善人类方面又前进了一步。我们会认识暴力是人类的堕落和卑下(人类不应有的)。从这段来看，作者对人类还抱有希望，不是很蔑视。所以选A项。
2. A.法律应禁止堕落而又危险的体育项目。见第一题注释。作者从古罗马人欣赏残忍的体育项目说起，点出现代人也是嗜血成性，喜欢暴力体育项目。这是不文明，是堕落。必须制止，而法律是我们社会改革最强大的工具，它可应用，发挥强大的文明影响(第三段倒数第三句)
B. 人们愿意支付巨大款项来观看暴力。这是作者说明“嗜血成性”的具体内容之一。
C. 对比对危险体育项目不同的态度。这里没有对比。
D.人类嗜血成性。这是作者认为人们为什么欣赏危险残忍体育项目的根源。
3.D. 人们在体育上习惯于“嗜血成性”，过去是，现在仍然是，不同点只是前者坦直承认，后者婉转掩饰。见第一题注释。
A. 把古罗马人和现代人对比。这项没有说明对比什么。
B. 给出一个例子。太抽象。
C. 说明过去人类不太知道更美好的东西，这两项都没有到位。
4. B. 5个。作者提到⑴逗熊游戏;⑵斗牛;⑶车赛;⑷拳击;⑸人狮斗。至于当众鞭挞和绞刑不能称作体育活动。
5. A. 通过制止野蛮体育项目，我们能改善人类自身。这在第三段讲的最透彻，见第一题和第二题注释。
B. 通过制止野蛮体育活动，我们能改善法律，不完全对。作者明确指出要用法律来禁止野蛮体育项目。
C. 我们必须采取积极步骤来改善社会福利体制
D. 去表明法律是社会变革的主要工具。
本文导航第1页英语知识运用第2页阅读理解一第3页阅读理解二第4页阅读理解三第5页阅读理解四第6页写作However important we may regard school life to be, there is no denying the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom. Therefore, the great influence of parents cannot be ignored or discounted by the teacher. They can become strong allies of the school personnel or they can consciously or unconsciously hinder and obstruct curricular objectives.
Administrators have been aware of the need to keep parents informed of the newer method used in schools. Many principals have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness program, manuscript writing, and developmental mathematics.
Moreover, the classroom teacher, with the permission of the supervisors, can also play an important role in enlightening parents. The many interviews carried on during the year as well as new ways of reporting pupils’ progress, can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay between school and home.
To illustrate, suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night. In a friendly interview, the teacher can help the parent convert his natural paternal interest into productive channels. He might be persuaded to let Junior participate in discussing the family budget, buying the food, using a yardstick or measuring cup at home, setting the clock, calculating mileage on a trip, and engaging in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis.
If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics and, at the same time, enjoying the work.
Too often, however, teachers’ conferences with parents are devoted to petty accounts of children’ s offences, complaints about laziness and poor work habits, and suggestions for penalties and rewards at home
What is needed is a more creative approach in which the teacher, as a professional adviser,plants ideas in parents’ minds for the best utilization of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom.
In this way, the school and the home join forces in stimulating the fullest development of youngsters’ capacities.
36. A method of parent-teacher communication NOT mentioned or referred to by the author is .
A. home training
B. demonstration lesson
C. parent-teacher interviews
D. new progress report forms
37. It can be reasonably inferred that the author .
A. thinks that teachers of this generation are inferior to those of the last generation
B. is satisfied with present relationships between home and school
C. feels that the traditional program in mathematics is slightly superior to the development program
D. feels that parent-teacher interviews can be made much more constructive than they are at present
38. The author’ s primary purpose in writing this passage is to .
A. improve the teaching of mathematics
B. tell parents to pay more attention to the guidance of teachers in the matter
C. help ensure that every child’ s capacities are fully developed when leaving school
D. urge the use of a much underused resource-the parent
39. The phrase "an important role in enlightening parents" in the third paragraph most probably means an,important role in .
A. causing parents to understand
B. persuading parents
C. understanding parents
D. discussing with parents
40. The attitude of the author towards the role of parents is .
A. positive
B. negative
C. doubtful
D. unclear
答案及解析
36.B
【命题目的】此题考查对文章信息的捕捉。
【解题要点】A项意为“家教”，在第四段中提到“父亲可以在家里帮 助训练孩子的计算能力”，这是“家教”的一种方式;C项意为“老师 家长见面会”，在第四段第二句中提到过;D项意为“学生进步报告”，文章第三段第二句提到“以新的方式报告学生进步”。8项意为“示范课(公共课)”，全文中未提到过。
37.D
【命题目的】此题考查推理能力。
【解题要点】A项“这一代老师不如上一代老师”，作者没有这方面的表述，此项是无关项。作者在文章中主要讲述的就是如何在未来通过增进学校和家庭的互动来促进学生的学习和发展，显然是对现状不满，所以B项是不正确的。C项文中未提及。D项“作者认为家长老师会面还可以做得更好”，在倒数第二段提到“老师应用一种更有创造性的方式与家长沟通，使得他们知道如何有效利用课堂外的时间”，第四段中也提到“在友好的会面中提醒家长利用一种有效的方式帮助孩子学数学”。
38.D
【命题目的】此题考查考生归纳中心思想的能力。
【解题要点】A项“改进数学教育”显然与中心无关，在第四段中提到“在家里培养孩子学习数学能力”只是举的一个例子，为了说明如何以一种更好的方式在家庭中教育孩子，所以不选A项。8、C两项都很牵强附会，没涉及文章中心。第一段和第四段都强调家长的重大影响，“他们是教育孩子的同盟军”，作者目的正是“呼吁学校充分开发潜在的人力资源——家长”。
39.A
【命题目的】此题考查根据上下文猜测短语含义的能力。
【解题要点】在解题过程中，最有可能遇到的问题是enlighten这个生词。即使不知道这个词的含义，也可通过上下文，推测出来其含义。在本句后面接着就具体讲了通过“和家长会面以及汇报学生进步的新方法来促进学校和家庭的和谐互动”，这是进一步阐释老师在推动 家长方面可以发挥的作用，因为是“互动”，就不可能是单方面的“说服”，故排除8项。而C项“理解家长”和D项“和家长讨论”，用在此处无法表示老师的积极作用，从而推断此处意为“在启发家长方面有重要作用”。
40.A
【命题目的】此题考查考生推断作者观点态度的能力。
【解题要点】通观全文，都贯彻着一种对更多发挥家长的作用的希望，所以推断作者对家长的作用持肯定的态度。

GOOD HEALTH
Wherever you are and whatever you do, staying healthy is always important. With the improvement of our living standards, people are attaching more and more importance to their health. We students can’ t keep the high study efficiency without good. health. The same thing is true with workers, scientists and doctors.
In my opinion, good diet and exercises are two major ways to keep healthy. The food we eat every day must be rational and should include meat, vegetables, eggs, and fruit. It is important to drink water every day and not to get addicted to drinking coffee or some other soft drinks. Ex-ercising every day is also essential for us to stay healthy. We can ride bicycles, play tennis or swim. Of course we don’ t need to exhaust ourselves. We should plan our physical exercises according to our actual condition. An hour a day is enough.
As a university student, I have much free time to do exercises. l usually play badminton and tennis. But sometimes I am lazy and do not exercise for all kinds of excuses, such as cold weather and exams. I must correct it. I am also careful with my diet. In a way, keeping healthy is not very hard, if you just take it seriously.
