1、专业英语四级(阅读)模拟试卷 144及答案与解析 一、 SECTION A In this section there are several passages followed by ten multiple-choice questions. For each question, there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. 0 (1)In the case of Archimedes, although he made man

2、y wonderful discoveries of diverse kinds, yet of them all, the following, which I shall relate, seems to have been the result of a boundless ingenuity. Hiero, after gaining the royal power in Syracuse, resolved, as a consequence of his successful exploits, to place in a certain temple a golden crown

3、 which he had vowed to the immortal gods. He contracted for its making at a fixed price, and weighed out a precise amount of gold to the contractor. At the appointed time the latter delivered to the kings satisfaction an exquisitely finished piece of handiwork, and it appeared that in weight the cro

4、wn corresponded precisely to what the gold had weighed. (2)But afterwards a charge was made that gold had been abstracted and an equivalent weight of silver had been added in the manufacture of the crown. Hiero, thinking it an outrage that he had been tricked, and yet not knowing how to detect the t

5、heft, requested Archimedes to consider the matter. The latter, while the case was still on his mind, happened to go to the bath, and on getting into a tub observed that the more his body sank into it the more water ran out over the tub. As this pointed out the way to explain the case in question, wi

6、thout a moments delay, and transported with joy, he jumped out of the tub and rushed home naked, crying with a loud voice that he had found what he was seeking. (3)Taking this as the beginning of his discovery, it is said that he made two masses of the same weight as the crown, one of gold and the o

7、ther of silver. After making them, he filled a large vessel with water to the very brim, and dropped the mass of silver into it. As much water ran out as was equal in bulk to that of the silver sunk in the vessel. Then, taking out the mass, he poured back the lost quantity of water, using a pint mea

8、sure, until it was level with the brim as it had been before. Thus he found the weight of silver corresponding to a definite quantity of water. (4)After this experiment, he likewise dropped the mass of gold into the full vessel and, on taking it out and measuring as before, found that not so much wa

9、ter was lost, but a smaller quantity: namely, as much less as a mass of gold lacks in bulk compared to a mass of silver of the same weight. Finally, filling the vessel again and dropping the crown itself into the same quantity of water, he found that more water ran over for the crown than for the ma

10、ss of gold of the same weight. Hence, reasoning from the fact that more water was lost in the case of the crown than in that of the mass, he detected the mixing of silver with the gold, and made the theft of the contractor perfectly clear. 1 According to the author, Archimedes must have found the wa

11、y _. ( A) accidentally ( B) effortlessly ( C) theoretically ( D) technically 2 In order to test his discovery, Archimedes _. ( A) made two crowns of silver and gold respectively ( B) made two masses of silver and gold respectively ( C) made a vessel as large as the tub where he had a bath ( D) made

12、a pint measure level with the brim of the vessel 3 The story is intended to _. ( A) illustrate the cleverness of Archimedes ( B) tell an interesting story about Archimedes ( C) recount how Archimedes solve the difficult “crown“ problem ( D) explain the discovery of the relation between bulk and mass

13、 3 (1)The world is going through the biggest wave of mergers and acquisitions ever witnessed. The process sweeps from hyperactive America to Europe and reaches the emerging countries with unsurpassed might. Many in these countries are looking at this process and worrying: “Wont the wave of business

14、concentration turn into an uncontrollable anti-competitive force?“ (2)Theres no question that the big are getting bigger and more powerful. Multinational corporations accounted for less than 20% of international trade in 1982. Today the figure is more than 25% and growing rapidly. International affi

15、liates account for a fast-growing segment of production in economies that open up and welcome foreign investment. In Argentina, for instance, after the reforms of the early 1990s, multinationals went from 43% to almost 70% of the industrial production of the 200 largest firms. This phenomenon has cr

16、eated serious concerns over the role of smaller economic firms, of national businessmen and over the ultimate stability of the world economy. (3)I believe that the most important forces behind the massive M they are not militant or angry they just find it annoying or tiresome. They reluctantly accep

17、t outdated stereotypes, but heave a sigh of relief when an advertisement really gets it right.“ She says that it is not advertisings use of the housewife role that bothers women, but the way in which it is handled. “Researchers have often asked the wrong questions. The most important thing is the ad

18、vertisements tone of voice. Women hate being patronized, flattered or given desperately down-to-earth common sense advice.“ (5)In the end, the responsibility for good advertising must be shared between the advertiser, the advertising agency and the consumer. Advertising does not set trends but it re

19、flects them. It is up to the consumer to tell advertisers where they fail, and until people on the receiving end take the business seriously and make their feelings known, the process of change will remain laboriously slow. 7 What do women usually do with advertisements that offend them? ( A) They a

20、re irritated and tend to bring lawsuits against the advertisements. ( B) They are indignant and tend to strongly object to the advertisements. ( C) They are angry and tend to refuse to buy the products. ( D) They are upset and tend to feel ashamed of the images. 8 According to Emma Bennett, the rese

21、archers should be more concerned about _. ( A) how to guard against offending ads ( B) the overuse of the housewife role ( C) the advertisers attitude to women ( D) feedbacks aroused in consumers 8 (1)Americans seeking jobs this side of the Atlantic should be aware that sometimes things are done dif

22、ferently here. Jennifer Vessels, of CareerJournalE, reveals the right way and the wrong way to get a post in Europe. (2)Think like a local. Thats the tip from careers experts for potential expats looking to gain international experience. Learn what skills are needed in the country you are targeting

23、and market yourself in a European way. The Wrong Way (3)After earning an MBA at night in international marketing, an ambitious product manager working for a computer-systems firm in San Jose, California, was ready to put his knowledge to use by relocating to Europe. (4)To prepare, he used the Intern

24、et and his local library to research European countries. He decided that France and Germany were most appealing and, fortunately, his company had subsidiaries in both countries. When he approached senior management about seeking an expatriate assignment, they agreed that the subsidiaries would benef

25、it from his talents. (5)The product manager then submitted a formal proposal requesting a transfer to his boss, who was supportive and suggested that he send a resume outlining his accomplishments to hiring managers at the French and German offices. The product manager followed up by voice mail to e

26、xplain his interest in joining their team. (6)A few weeks passed without a response, so the manager sent another fax and left more voice-mail messages. His boss also directly contacted the hiring managers to stress how the new MBA graduates innovative marketing ideas would benefit the organisation.

27、Both hiring managers agreed that the candidate would be a good addition to their teams, but said they needed more time to think about it. (7)After six months of leaving voice mail and sending faxes highlighting his accomplishments, the product manager got frustrated and started seeking international

28、 opportunities outside the company. What Went Wrong? (8)The MBA had the right educational qualifications and a solid track record in the US, as well as the support of his management. Yet he made a critical mistake. He based his approach on techniques that work in the US, but not in Europe. He didnt

29、realise that when seeking a new position or transfer overseas, you must know your market well. Since the culture, business and decision-making style and needs of each European country varies, first-hand knowledge is essential. (9)“The most common mistake Americans make is assuming that the needs and

30、 business practices of the European countries are the same as those in the US,“ says Erwin De Wolfe, a partner in the Brussels office of Korn/Ferry International, one of the worlds largest executive-search firms. The Right Way (10)The best way to understand the nuances of any country is to spend tim

31、e there. By not visiting France or Germany, the product manager mistakenly assumed they were interested in marketing ideas from America. But thats rarely the case. (11)“We generally rely on the locals in country to drive our marketing campaigns, since theyre much closer to the customer than US perso

32、nnel,“ says Patrick DeRoy, operations manager for Newbridge Networks, a local-and wide-area networking systems firm with operations throughout Europe. By offering new marketing ideas from a US perspective, the MBA and his boss were proposing exactly the opposite of what the European managers wanted.

33、 9 According to the author, the product manager should have_before applying for the job in Europe. ( A) read relevant business reports ( B) experienced their business practices ( C) drawn up a marketing project ( D) consulted a career master 10 If the product manager had applied to Newbridge Network

34、s, his marketing ideas would have been _. ( A) doubted ( B) impressive ( C) workable ( D) rejected 二、 SECTION B In this section there are five short answer questions based on the passages in Section A.

For each question, there are four suggested answers marked A

37、, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. 【知识模块】 阅读 1 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 第 2段第 3句中的 happened to表明当时阿基米德是偶然发现解决问题的方法的,因此,本题应选 A。虽然 “偶然 ”发现的方法好像是 “毫不费力 ”的,但原文该句中的 while the case was still on his mind表明阿基米德在偶然发现方法之前一直都在想如何解决这个问题,可见,他也不是 “毫不费力 ”就找到了方法的,因此, B不正确。 【知识模块】 阅读 2 【正确答案】 B 【

38、试题解析】 第 3段第 1句证明 B是正确的 。最具干扰性的是 D,该选项的用词与第 3段倒数第 2句的用词和词序都十分相近,但要注意原文中, until it was level with里的 it指的不是直接在其前面的 pint measure,而是指再前面的 water,将water代回到 it的位置就不难看出 D和原文的区别了。 【知识模块】 阅读 3 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 作者讲到阿基米德这个故事的原因在全文第 1句提到:是为了说明阿基米德的 a boundless ingenuity,其中 ingenuity与 cleverness同义, 因此,本题应选 A。 【知识模块

39、】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据题干中的 mergers and acquisitions定位到第 1段。 C中的unprecedented force与该段第 2句的内容相近,故为本题答案。 A中的 warmly welcome缺乏原文依据:第 1句中的 the biggest表明这一次合并潮只是 “最大的一次 ”,这也就暗示合并潮以前就出现过,可见, D不正确。 【知识模块】 阅读 5 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 根 据题干中的 multinationals in Argentina定位到第 2段第 5句。在该句中提到的 Argentina的情况是

40、为了说明该段前几句的观点:跨国公司生意越做越大,地位越来越重要,将四个选项的内容与此对比,可发现 D意思最相近。故为本题答案。 【知识模块】 阅读 6 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 第 3段第 2句开头的 All these指的是该段第 1句的 forces,可见,第 2句表明这些 forces对消费者是有利的,因此,本题应选 D。 A和 B是第 1句冒号后的内容,在原文中,冒号后列举了各种 forces,可见, A和 B是 forces本身,而非 forces带来的结果。 C中的 undermine与原文中的 underlie意思完全不同。 【知识模块】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 7 【正

41、确答案】 B 【试题解析】 第 1段第 2句描述了女性对使她们感到不快的广告的态度:angry,但仅此而已,原文没有提到她们是否会诉诸法律 (A),或罢买相关产品(C),也没有提到她们会感到 ashamed(D),因此,本题应选 B。 【知识模块】 阅读 8 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据题干中的 Emma Bennett定位到第 4段。该段倒数第 2句表明她认为研究人员最关注的应该是 the advertisements tone of voice,即广告商的态度,结合上下文,此处的态度应指对女性的态度,因此,本题应选 C。 【知识模块】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 9 【正确答案】 B

42、 【试题解析】 第 8段最后一句中的 first-hand表明作者认为求职者应该 “亲自 ”接触一下欧洲商业的运作模式,因此本题应选 B。 【知识模块】 阅读 10 【正确 答案】 D 【试题解析】 最后一段末句表明这位产品经理提出的销售理念不会被欧洲公司所接受,文中提到 Newbridge Networks是一家欧洲公司,因而这位产品经理应会被拒绝,因此,本题应选 D。 A的态度不如 D坚决。 doubted表明还有 “接受 ”的余地,而原文没有表明有这种 “余地 ”,因此 A不正确;其他两个选项是褒义词,肯定不对。 【知识模块】 阅读 二、 SECTION B In this sectio

43、n there are five short answer questions based on the passages in Section A. Answer the questions with No more than TEN words in the space provided. 11 【正确答案】 Filled with great happiness /Very happy. 【试题解析】 第 2段最后一句提到阿基米德在发现方法之后,高兴得连衣服都不穿就跳出浴池跑回家,可见,此处的 transported应该是指他满脑子都被高兴的情绪所占据,故本题可用任何表达 “非常高兴 ”

44、的词 语去回答。 【知识模块】 阅读 12 【正确答案】 The threats to competition 【试题解析】 在第 4段第 2句中,定语从句 that were feared 中的 that应该指前面的先行词 threats,这样才能与从句的动词 were形成主谓一致,找到 that的所指,就不难确定本题答案为 the threats to competition了。 【知识模块】 阅读 13 【正确答案】 The consumers 【试题解析】 最后一段最后一句中的 Its up to 和 until 都强调了消费者对广告业的重要影响,而且消费者是使广告业发生改变的最重要的

45、因素,因此本题答案应为 The consumers。 【知识模块】 阅读 【知识模块】 阅读 14 【正确答案】 People seeking a job abroad 【试题解析】 文章第一段以美国人到欧洲去找工作要注意做事风格不同为例,第2段开始就给这些人提建议,可见第 2段里提到的 expats应该是指想到国外去找工作的人,因此,对于 expats最好的理解就是 People seeking a job abroad。 “国外 ”还可以表达为 in a foreign country, overseas之类的。 【知识模块】 阅读 15 【正确答案】 Erwin De Wolfe 【试题解析】 文章当中有名有姓的人有三个:第一段的 Jennifer Vessels,第九段的 Erwin De Wolfe和最后一段的 Patrick DeRoy,对比原文对这三个人的描述可以确定答案为 Erwin De Wolfe,因为他所在的公司是一家 executive-search firm,专门帮别人招 募高素质的员工。 【知识模块】 阅读
