2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:電視有害
理了2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:電視有害,一起來看看吧。 2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:電視有害 Yes, but what did we use to do before there wastelevision? How often we hear statements like this! Television hasn't been with us all that long, but weare already beginning to forget what the world was like without it. Before we admitted the one-eyed monster into our homes, we never fond it difficult to occupy our spare time. We used toenjoy civilized pleasures. For instance, we used to have hobbies, we used to entertain ourfriends and be entertained by them, we used to go outside for our amusements to theatres, cinemas, restaurants and sporting events. We even used to read books and listen to music andbroadcast talks occasionally. All that belongs to the past. Now all our free time is regulatedby the goggle box. We rush home or gulp down our meals to be in time for this or thatprogramme. We have even given up sitting at table and having a leisurely evening meal, exchanging the news of the day. A sandwich and a glass of beer will do anything, providing itdoesn't interfere with the programme. The monster demands and obtains absolute silenceand attention. If any member of the family dares to open his mouth during a programme, he isquickly silenced. Whole generations are growing up addicted to the telly. Food is left uneaten, homeworkundone and sleep is lost. The telly is a universal pacifier. It is now standard practice formother to keep the children quiet by putting them in the living-room and turning on the set. Itdoesn't matter that the children will watch rubbishy commercials or spectacles of sadism andviolence so long as they are quiet. There is a limit to the amount of creative talent available in the world. Every day, television consumes vast quantities of creative work. That is why most of the programmes areso bad: it is impossible to keep pace with the demand and maintain high standards as well. When millions watch the same programmes, the whole world becomes a village, and society isreduced to the conditions which obtain in preliterate communities. We become utterlydependent on the two most primitive media of communication: pictures and the spokenword. Television encourages passive enjoyment. We become content with second-handexperiences. It is so easy to sit in our armchairs watching others working. Little by little, television cuts us off from the real world. We get so lazy, we choose to spend a fine day insemi-darkness, glued to our sets, rather than go out into the world itself. Television may be ssplendid medium of communication, but it prevents us from communicating with each other. We only become aware how totally irrelevant television is to real living when we spend aholiday by the sea or in the mountains, far away from civilization. In quiet, naturalsurroundings, we quickly discover how little we miss the hypnotic tyranny of King Telly. 1. What is the biggest harm of TV? [A] It deprives people of communication with the real world. [B] People become lazy. [C] People become dependent on second-hand experience. [D] TV consumes a large part of one's life. 2. In what way can people forget TV? [A] Far away from civilization. [B] To a mountain. [C] By the sea. [D] In quiet natural surroundings. 3. What does a mother usually do to keep her children quiet? [A] Let them watch the set. [B] Put them in the living room. [C] Let them watch the rubbish. [D] Let them alone. 4. What does the first sentence in the first paragraph mean? [A] We found it difficult to occupy our spare time. [B] We become addicted to TV. [C] What we used to do is different from now. [D] We used to enjoy civilized pleasures. Vocabulary 1. goggle 轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)眼珠,瞪眼 goggle box (英俚)電視機(jī) 2. gulp 狼吞虎咽 3. telly 電視機(jī) 4. pacifier 平息者,撫慰者。這里指平靜人,使人不吱聲的東西。 5. rubbishy 垃圾的,無價(jià)值的 6. sadism 施淫虐 7. glue 膠(水);粘牢 glue to the sets 和電視機(jī)粘在一起,指成了電視迷 8. hypnotic 催眠的 寫作方法與文章大意 這是一篇論說“電視有害”的文章。采用對比分析手法。先提出問題,對比過去和現(xiàn)在“過去在業(yè)余時(shí)間,我們享受文明的歡樂,有各種嗜好,招待朋友,訪友,外出娛樂,在家讀書聽音樂……現(xiàn)在一切受

2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:學(xué)習(xí)外語
2024年12月英語四級考試在即,同學(xué)們要認(rèn)真?zhèn)淇寂?。今天為大家?guī)淼氖?024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:學(xué)習(xí)外語,一起來看看吧。 2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:學(xué)習(xí)外語 New technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk. It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills. Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern business people who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts. Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she canbe sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent (普遍的). Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets. English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal. The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forwardcertain negotiations, and cam have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. Theemployee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm. 練習(xí)題: Choose correct answers to the question: 1. What is the author’s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment? A. Critical. B. Prejudiced. C. Indifferent. D. Positive. 2. With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, businesspeople ________. A. have to get familiar with modern technology B. are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations C. are attaching more importance to their overseas business D. are eager to work overseas 3. In this passage,“out of sight and out of mind” (Lines 2-3, Para. 3) probably means ________. A. being unable to think properly for lack of insight B. being totally out of touch with business at home C. missing opportunities for promotion when abroad D. leaving all care and worry behind 4. According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporationsin employingpeople today? A. Connections with businesses overseas. B. Ability to speak the client’s language. C. Technical know-how. D. Business experience. 5. The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can ________. A. better control the whole negotiation process B. easily find new approaches to meet market needs C. fast-forward their proposals to headquarters D. easily make friends with businesspeople abroad 參考答案: 1.[D] 事實(shí)辨認(rèn)題。題目詢問的是作者對于髙科技通訊設(shè)備的態(tài)度是什么。根據(jù)文章的第1段特別是最后一句中的benefit,可推斷作者是持肯定態(tài)度的,即答案為D。 2.[C] 事實(shí)辨認(rèn)題。根據(jù)第2段第1句中的who have a growing respect... abroad可看出,隨著髙科技通訊設(shè)備的廣泛使用,商人們越來越重視海外商務(wù)的經(jīng)濟(jì)價(jià)值,C與之一致。" 3.[C] 語義推斷題。根據(jù)第3段第2、3句中說的“他確信國外的事務(wù)對公司的成功計(jì)劃至關(guān)重要,派往國外時(shí)或之 后常能得到升遷?!笨芍诤M獾墓芾砣藛T不再會(huì)擔(dān)心被遺忘而錯(cuò)過升職機(jī)會(huì),因此“眼不見,心不念”即為C“在國外時(shí)錯(cuò)過國內(nèi)升職機(jī)會(huì)”。 4.[B] 事實(shí)辨認(rèn)題。題目詢問的是根據(jù)短文,當(dāng)今在雇傭雇員時(shí),國際化的公司應(yīng)該著重考慮什么。這是第5段的話題,其中核心詞是language,只有B“會(huì)說顧客的語言”符合。 5.[A] 事實(shí)辨認(rèn)題。題目詢問的是具有外語能力的雇員的優(yōu)勢究竟是什么。根據(jù)最后一段第1句可知,“派往國外的雇員若能講該國的主要語言,就有機(jī)會(huì)加快談判進(jìn)程,而且能知道什么時(shí)候最好放慢節(jié)拍。” A“具有外語 能力的雇員的優(yōu)勢就是他們可以)更好地控制整個(gè)談判的過程”與之一致,故為答案。 以上就是關(guān)于“2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬:學(xué)習(xí)外語”的全部內(nèi)容啦,祝同學(xué)們早日通過四級。
