[外语类试卷]2011年12月大学英语四级真题试卷及答案与解析.doc

1、2011年 12月大学英语四级真题试卷及答案与解析 一、 Part I Writing (30 minutes) 1 For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will by commenting on the humorous saying, “Quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world. Ive done it hundreds of times.“ You s

2、hould write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will 二、 Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions attached to the passage.

3、For questions 1-7, mark: Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. 1 Why Integrity Matters What Is Integrity? The key

4、to integrity is consistency not only setting high personal standards for oneself (honesty, responsibility, respect for others, fairness) but also living up to those standards each and every day. One who has integrity is bound by and follows moral and ethical (道德上的 ) standards even when making lifes

5、hard choices, choices which may be clouded by stress, pressure to succeed, or temptation. What happens if we lie, cheat, steal, or violate other ethical standards? We feel disappointed in ourselves and ashamed. But a lapse (缺失 ) of integrity also affects our relationships with others. Trust is essen

6、tial in any important relationship, whether personal or professional. Who can trust someone who is dishonest or unfair? Thus, integrity must be one of our most important goals. Risky Business We are each responsible for our own decisions, even if the decision-making process has been undermined by st

7、ress or peer pressure. The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did and then exploring ways to avoid similar problems in the future. Making ethical decisions is a critical part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to recognize ris

8、ks, because if we cant see the risks were taking, we cant make responsible choices. To identify risks, we need to know the rules and be aware of the facts. For example, one who doesnt know the rules about plagiarism (剽窃 ) may accidentally use words or ideas without giving proper credit, or one who f

9、ails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote and cite sources as required. But the fact that such a violation is “unintentional“ does not excuse the misconduct. Ignorance is not a defense. “But Everybody Does It“ Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts but

10、 manage to fool themselves about the risks theyre taking by using excuses: “Everyone else does it,“ “Im not hurting anyone,“ or “I really need this grade.“ Excuses can get very elaborate: “I know Im looking at anothers exam, but thats not cheating because Im just checking my answers, not copying.“ W

11、e must be honest about our actions and avoid excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing were not doing anything wrong, we cant see the real choice were making and that leads to bad decisions. To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if your actions

12、 were public and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. If youd rather hide your actions, thats an indication that youre taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself. Evaluating Risks To decide whether a risk is worth taking, you must examine the consequences, in the future as well as right

13、now, negative as well as positive, and to others as well as to yourself. Those who take risks they later regret usually focus on immediate benefits and simply havent considered what might go wrong. The consequences of getting caught are serious and may include a “0“ on a test or assignment, an “F“ i

14、n the class, suspension ( 暂令停学 ) or dismissal from school and a ruined reputation. In fact, when you break a rule or law, you lose control over your life and give others the power to impose punishment that you have no control over. This is an extremely vulnerable (脆弱 的 ) position. There may be some

15、matters of life and death or highest principle, which might justify such a risk, but there arent many things that fall in this category. Getting Away With It Or Not Those who dont get caught pay an even higher price. A cheater doesnt learn from the test, which deprives (剥夺 ) him/her of an education.

16、 Cheating undermines confidence and independence: the cheater is a fraud, and knows that without dishonesty, he/she would have failed. Cheating destroys self-respect and integrity, leaving the cheater ashamed, guilty, and afraid of getting caught. Worst of all, a cheater who doesnt get caught the fi

17、rst time usually cheats again, not only because he/she is farther behind, but also because it seems “easier.“ This slippery slope of eroding ethics and bigger risks leads only to disaster. Eventually, the cheater gets caught, and the later he/ she gets caught, the worse the consequences. Cheating Hu

18、rts Others, Too Cheaters often feel invisible, as if their actions “dont count“ and dont really hurt anyone. But individual choices have an intense cumulative (累积的 ) effect. Cheating can spread like a disease. Recent statistics suggest 30% or more of college students cheat. If a class is graded on a

19、 curve, cheating hurts others grades. Even if there is no curve, cheating “poisons“ the classroom, and others may feel pressured to join in. (“If I dont cheat, I cant compete with those who do.“) Cheating also has a destructive impact on teachers. The real reward of good teaching is seeing students

20、learn, but a cheater says, “Im not interested in what youre trying to teach; all I care about is stealing a grade, regardless of the effect on others.“ The end result is a destructive attack on the quality of your education. Finally, cheating can hurt the reputation of the university and harm those

21、who worked hard for their degree. Why Integrity Matters If cheating becomes the norm, then we are in big trouble. We must rely on the honesty and good faith of others. If not, we couldnt put money in the bank, buy food, clothing, or medicine from others, drive across a bridge, get on a plane the lis

22、t is endless. There are many examples of the vast harm caused when individuals forget or ignore the effect their dishonesty can have. The Watergate scandal, for example, has undermined the faith of many Americans in the integrity of political and economic leaders and society as a whole. In sum, we a

23、ll have a common stake in our school, our community, and our society. Our actions do matter.
