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?

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] 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.

House prices 經(jīng)濟發(fā)展最簡單的指標是什么呢？那就是House prices（房價）了。經(jīng)濟向上發(fā)展的時候，房價逐漸走高；經(jīng)濟不好的時候，房價也會降低；當房價出現(xiàn)劇烈波動時，經(jīng)濟也會產(chǎn)生強烈的反應。 我們來看2個例句： When U. S. house prices were rising and interest rates were low, even the poor got a chance to get a mortgage and a home. 當美國房價飛升而利率卻較低，即使是窮光蛋都有機會獲得抵押貸款和房子。 I was one of those

Divorce rate Divorce rate（離婚率）也可以用來反映社會發(fā)展趨勢。它用于衡量和評價某個國家或地區(qū)的婚姻穩(wěn)定和幸福程度，經(jīng)濟發(fā)展水平越高，離婚率越高；女性在社會中的地位越高，離婚率越高。中國目前的離婚率是逐年上升的。 我們來看2個例句： The divorce rate in the United States is the highest in the world. One out of every three marriage ends in divorce. 美國的離婚率居世界首位。三分之一是以離婚結(jié)束的。 In recent years, China's

理了2024年12月英語六級閱讀理解模擬真題：大學專業(yè)選擇，一起來看看吧。 2024年12月英語六級閱讀理解模擬真題：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 　　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。

所占的一個相對位置 05 總結(jié)一下 綜上所述 對于“多題多卷”各套試卷難度不等 對于考試是否公平的問題 大家不用過于擔心。 重要的不是你做的這套試卷能做對多少題， 這才決定了你是否能通過 這套邏輯 小伙伴們都懂了嗎？ GET到了的 扣111哦~ 06 四六級通過率 最后咱們再來看一下 某機構(gòu)統(tǒng)計的四六級歷年的通過率 大家可能理所當然地覺得 四六級的考試不難啊 并且還有越來越低的趨勢！ 不過，每個學校的水平不一致，通過率也有所差別 但是整體上來說 全國高校的四六級平均通過率在40%左右 這個數(shù)字可并不算高呀 所以大家一定要抓住 每一次四六級考試機會 扎實備考，爭取一次高分過！ ?屠皓民領(lǐng)銜 四六級通關(guān)神器? ??????基礎(chǔ)班·沖刺押題班

Infrastructure construction 要致富，先修路。這就說明了Infrastructure construction（基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)）在經(jīng)濟發(fā)展中的重要性。 基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施包括交通、郵電、供水供電、商業(yè)服務、科研與技術(shù)服務、園林綠化、環(huán)境保護、文化教育、衛(wèi)生事業(yè)等市政公用工程設(shè)施和公共生活服務設(shè)施等。中國在國際上有個外號叫“基建狂魔”。 我們來看2個例句： One of the major benefits of hosting the Olympics is as a stimulant for infrastructure construction. 舉辦奧運會的主要

題了，再想得高分就不容易了。 句式多變，靈活運用復合句和連接詞 英語作文要想給人一種很精深有水平的感覺那就必然少不了運用復合句。所謂復合句就是那些主句里面套從句，句式較長的語句，考生高中時就學過定語從句、賓語從句、主從復合句等等基本的語法知識，在作文中可以加以運用。除此之外

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. 練習題： Choose correct answers to the question: 1.

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.
