年12月英語四級考試越來越近啦，大家要認真?zhèn)淇寂?。今天@滬江英語四六級微信公眾號給同學們整理了2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬：房屋建筑，一起來看看吧。 2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬：房屋建筑 Some houses are designed to be smart. Others have smart designs. An example of the second type of house won an Award of Excellence from the American Institute of Architects. Located on the shore of Sullivan’s Island off the coast of South Carolina, the award-winning cube-shaped beach house was built to replace one smashed to pieces by Hurricane (颶風) Hugo 10 years ago. In September1989, Hugo struck South Carolina, killing 18 people and damaging or destroying 36,000 homes in the state. Before Hugo, many new houses built along South Carolina’s shoreline were poorly constructed, and enforcement of building codes wasn’t strict, according to architect Ray Huff, who created the cleverly-designed beach house. In Hugo’s wake, all new shoreline houses are required to meet stricter, better-enforced codes.The new beach house on Sullivan’s Island should be able to withstand a Category 3 hurricane with peak winds of 179 to 209 kilometers per hour. At first sight, the house on Sullivan’s Island looks anything but hurricane-proof. Its redwood shell makes it resemble “a large party lantern (燈籠)” at night, according to one observer. But looks can be deceiving. The house’s wooden frame is reinforced with long steel rods to give it extra strength. To further protect the house from hurricane damage, Huff raised it 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings—long, slender columns of wood anchored deep in the sand. Pilings might appear insecure, but they arestrong enough to support the weight of the house. They also elevate the house above storm surges. The pilings allow the surges to run under the house instead of running into it. “These swells of water come ashore at tremendous speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings,” said Huff. Huff designed the timber pilings to be partially concealed by the house’s ground-to-roof shell. “ The shell masks the pilings so that the house doesn’t look like it’s standing with its pant legs pulled up,” said Huff. In the event of a storm surge, the shell should break apart and let the waves rush under the house, the architect explained. 練習題： Choose correct answers to the question: 1. After the tragedy caused by Hurricane Hugo, new houses built along South Carolina’s shore line are required ________. A. to be easily reinforced B. to look smarter in design C. to meet stricter building standards D. to be designed in the shape of cubes 2. The award-winning beach house is quite strong because ________. A. it is strengthened by steel rods B. it is made of redwood C. it is in the shape of a shell D. it is built with timber and concrete 3. Huff raised the house 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings in order to ________. A. withstand peak winds of about 200 km/hr B. anchor stronger pilings deep in the sand C. break huge sea waves into smaller ones D. prevent water from rushing into the house 4. The main function of the shell is ________. A. to strengthen the pilings of the house B. to give the house a better appearance C. to protect the wooden frame of the house D. to slow down the speed of the swelling water 5. It can be inferred from the passage that the shell should be ________. A. fancy-looking B. waterproof C. easily breakable D. extremely strong 參考答案： 1.[C] 根據(jù)題目中的專有名詞Hugo查找到文中第3段第2句。句中的In Hugo’s wake相當于題目中的after Hugo,由該句是的stricter，better-enforced codes可知C正確。 2.[A] 第4段開始具體介紹the house,根據(jù)該段最后一句可知，這幢房子的木制結(jié)構(gòu)用長鋼筋加固了，因而特別結(jié)實,故選A。 3.[D] 根據(jù)題干的數(shù)字可迅速定位至第5段首，第2、3句闡述這樣做的目的是“將房屋抬髙到暴風雨巨浪之上,及讓巨浪能在屋下

On the one hand, living in an era of consumerism, people are obsessed with occupying and purchasing a varietyof material goods, such as expensive smart phones, portable computers, and fancy clothes. As a matter of fact, intelligent people in large numbers have realized the negative impact of wasting on our social development: without thrift, it would be impossible for human beings to utilize limited natural resources like water, food and energy. Indeed, every social member ought to be educated to foster the awareness of thrift. On the other hand, as a college student, I am convinced that only with a saving awareness can we gain life-long benefits from modern life. The habit of saving, without a doubt, is like a stepping stone which can enrich our spirit, enhance the healthy lifestyle, ensure more fruitful results in environmental protection, and enable us to prepare more chances for any future plans. In conclusion, we should bear in mind that thrift does enhance the social, environmental and our personal advancement. There is an enlightening and brief remark, "Put your hand no further than your sleeve will reach."

2024年12月英語四級考試在即，同學們要認真?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：大學專業(yè)選擇，一起來看看吧。 2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬：大學專業(yè)選擇 One of the bitterest and most time-worm debates in student union bars up and down the country is resolved as academic research confirms that in financial terms at least, arts degrees are a complete waste of time.Getting through university boosts students’earnings by 25%, on a weighted average, or $220,000 over theirlifetime, according to Professor Ian Walker of Warwick University-but if they study Shakespeare or the peasants’revolt instead of anatomy of contract law, those gains are likely to be completely wiped out. The government is about to allow universities to charge students up to $3,000 a year for their degrees, arguing that it’s a small price to pay compared with the financial rewards graduates reap later in life. But Prof. Walker’s research shows there are sharp variations in returns according to which subject a student takes. Law, medicine and economics or business are the most lucrative choices, making their average earnings 25% higher, according to the article, published in the office for national statistics’monthly journal. Scientists get 10-15% extra. At the bottom of the list are arts subjects, which make only a “small ”differenceto earnings- a small negative one, in fact. Just ahead are degrees in education-which leave hard pressed teachers anaverage of 5% better off a year than if they had left school at 18. “it’s hard to resist the conclusion that what students learn does matter a lot; and some subject areas givemore modest financial returns than others,” Prof. Walker said. As an economist, he was quick to point outthat students might gain non-financial returns from arts degrees:”Studying economics might be very dull, forexample, and studying post-modernism might be a lot of fun.” 練習題： Choose correct answers to the question: 1.What is the best title for the passage? A.Professor Walker’s Research B.How to Make Big Money. C.Differences Between Science and Arts Degrees. D.Studying Arts Has Negative Financial Outcome. 2.Universities charge students a rather high tuition mainly because_____ provide the students with very prosperous subjects to learn assume that their graduates can earn much more than they had paid don’t get financial support from the government need much revenue to support the educational expenses 3.The word “l(fā)ucrative”(Line 1, Para. 4) most probably means _____ le ve able le 4.Law, medical and business graduates could earn 25% more than ______ ion graduates graduates who had not studied at the university average income 5.We can safely conclude that the author ______ s arts degrees as meaningless this result disappointing and unfair the students to think twice before they decide what to learn in college that arts degrees are still rewarding despite its scarce financial returns 參考答案： 1.[D] 主旨大意題。本文為Walker教授的研究成果，旨在說明不同專業(yè)的畢業(yè)生有不同的經(jīng)濟回報，并非要傳授發(fā)財心得或者比較文理科的異同。文章首句即為本題解題關(guān)鍵，故D正確。 2.[B] 事實細節(jié)題。定位至第3段第1句。本文只有這一句與收取學費有關(guān)，后一個分句即前一個分句的理由，抓住其中隱含的因果關(guān)系就不難找到正確答案。 3.[C] 詞義理解題。通過下文數(shù)據(jù)earnings 25% higher和get 10-15% extra可以推測lucrative大意應為“給人帶來豐厚收入的”,故選C。 4.[C] 事實細節(jié)題。第4段中出現(xiàn)了幾個比較數(shù)字，考題要求找到此段首句提到的收人增加25%的參照點。第2段第1句中的Getting through university 表明這類學生收人增加25%的參照對象是沒讀大學的人，且從第4段第3句中的the list和第4句即可以確定這一段是在比較大學畢業(yè)與18歲畢業(yè)(即沒讀大學)收入的不同，因此C正確。 5.[D] 推理判斷題。結(jié)論往往出現(xiàn)在文章結(jié)尾,要想答年12月英語四級考試在即，同學們要認真?zhèn)淇寂?。今天為大家?guī)淼氖?024年對此題,一定要仔細體會本文末句。本文雖然重點討論文科沒有經(jīng)濟效益，但是作者并沒有做出主觀判斷，故A、B、C都不正確，而作者在文章最后講到了人文學科雖然經(jīng)濟效益不佳但學習過程更有趣，故D符合作者意思。 以上就是關(guān)于“2024年12月英語四級閱讀理解模擬：大學專業(yè)選擇”的全部內(nèi)容啦，祝同學們考試順利。
