Part A Reading Aloud
The South Pacific Ocean is on the surface of it still a healthy ocean. We depend on it. Over 60% of the world’s fish catch comes from the Pacific. But like all oceans, it has little or no protection, so it may not stay healthy much longer. For the South Pacific, this is a critical time. It’s changing in ways that. If left unchecked, could develop into a global crisis. Some of its residents have been through crisis before. And protecting the fish will ensure a healthy ocean for all the marine life of the Pacific. It will require international commitment and cooperation.

Uncle John Was Saved
When Uncle John was 85 years old, most of his families and relatives were already dead. He lived by himself in a big house. The only person who often talked to him was his nephew Tom. Tom called several times a week just for few minutes to say hello and see if everything was OK.
One morning Tom phoned Uncle John again. Again no answer. Two hours later he called the 3rd time. Still no answer, he got very anxious. So he called Uncle John’s next door neighbor. Tom told her that he was worried about Uncle John and asked her to see what was wrong. A while later, the neighbor phoned Tom. She said nervously, “Tom, I’m sorry it took so long. Uncle John didn’t answer the door, so I used his spare key. I found him lying on the bathroom floor. I could not wake him up.” Tom called the doctor immediately, and then rushed to Uncle John’s house. When he got there, the doctor had already been there. The doctor said that he was just in time to save him.

W: Dr. Brown, welcome to today’s program.
M: Thank you. It’s a pleasure being here.
W: We know that you are a language specialist, and you just published a book on how to learn a foreign language. And it’s selling well, so tell us the title of your book?
M: It’s called “Learning a language over Ex and Tost” (音)
W: That sounds very interesting, tell us what you discuss in your book.
M: It is very important to set up a regular program like planning a few minutes every morning around the breakfast time.
W: But I have been learning Spanish for four years, and I haven’t become a good speaker of it.
M: We can’t become fluent speakers in the matter of a few minute hearing that. We should follow a regular course of study.
三问
1. 学生问：Could you please speak a little more?
电脑答：My basic suggestion is to learn a foreign language by talking small steps. Some people think they can learn a foreign language in thirty days, and they become very discouraged when they can’t. Learning 5 words a day and learning to use them actively is far better than Learning 30 and forgetting them the next day. But people many have different learning styles.
2. 学生问：What do you mean by “learning styles?”
电脑答：I mean different ways of learning. Some prefer to see models of the patterns they are expected to learn; others see the hearing instructions over reading them. All preferences are determined by factors so just character, culture and past experiences.
3. 学生问：How did you learn a foreign language?
电脑答：I learned while doing things. Moving around as well as trying to learn helps me. I often recite aloud the words when I cook potatoes and onions for breakfast in the morning.

Locked In
Last summer vacation, Tom took a part-time job in a company. His office was very small at the end of the second floor. One Friday evening, he finished his work and went out of his office. It’s already six o’clock. He looked around and found everybody had gone home. The building was very quiet, and the main lights were all out. He ran down to see whether he could find somebody, but it was too late. The doors all locked, and he was locked in the building. Tom went back to his office to phone the doorkeeper, but the phone did not work. He tried another one, and that phone did not work, either. Tom realized the phones in the office had been locked for the weekend. He thought, “I had to be here for the weekend”. Suddenly he remembered that in the reception room there was a phone that was always on. So he rushed to the reception room. The door was locked, too. So he went into the room through the window, and phoned the doorkeeper. Half an hour later, the doorkeeper came, and Tome went home.

The Road tells us stories of cities, stories of wars, all passed on through travelers’ tales. The hardest part of the Silk Road journey was crossing the vast expanse of desert, called “The Sea of Death”. The Mogao Cave is an intersection between the edge of the Silk Road and starting point of the “Desert of Death”. The numerous stories of the Silk Road tale were hidden in the desert. The desert sand wind has two different sides, and the desert does not leave any traces. However, uncovering the Silk Road’s stories is similar to counting the grains of sand in the desert.

Two Problems
During his first year at university, one day, Tom arrived late at one of Professor Brown’s courses. On the blackboard were two math problems. He thought they were their homework and copied them down. A few days later, Tom went to Professor Brown’s office and apologized to him for taking so long to finish the homework. The problems seemed to be a little harder to do than usual. He asked Professor Brown if he still wanted his homework. He told Tom to throw it on the desk covered with a lot of papers. Tom feared that his homework would be there forever.
One Sunday morning, about six weeks later, Tom had a heavy knock at the front door. It was Professor Brown. He rushed in with Tom’s homework in his hand. He said to Tom excitedly, “I’ve just written an introduction for one of your papers. Read it so that we can get it published.” For a minute, Tom had no idea what he was talking about. Tom was later told that the two problems he copied down as his homework were two famous math problems that had never been worked out. For the first time, Tom realized that the two problems have something special in them.

I used to lived in a house that is over one hundred years old. It was really something I am proud of, so yes, on the whole, I think the English do prefer old things.

2018 D Part A The wind has had some of its most dramatic effects on human history when it interacts with the energy of the oceans. It’s an interaction that can have major long term consequences. But it can also bring short term disaster. The sea acts as a main store of the sun’s heat. There’s more energy in the top 3 meters of the ocean than the whole of the atmosphere. By pumping this energy into the air, the ocean is constantly influencing the wind. A principle that is demonstrated each year: the hotter the ocean, the faster the air above rises.

M: I’ve seen a lot of fantastic office buildings and some of them are of eco-design. 1. 那是什么意思？ What does that mean? 电脑回答It means that the designs combines environmentally friendly ideas. I visited one building with eco-designs. They helped cut energy cost greatly. Last year, that building saved up to 20% energy cost, compared to other ordinary buildings. Thanks to the various wonderful design. 2. 让你印象最深刻的设计是什么？ What design impressed you most? 电脑回答Well, I think what impresses me most is the high-tech curtain wall. For one thing, it is used to adjust temperature automatically in the building. The indoor temperature will not be affected by conditions outside. For another, it enables 90% of the office area to enjoy natural sunlight, which makes people feel like closer to nature. 3. 这栋大楼里还有其他新设计吗？ Are there any other new designs in this building? 电脑回答Yes, of course. For example, there is only one elevator in the building. Many staff have to walk to their offices. At first some of them complained, but gradually they realized walking is pretty good exercise to keep them fit. Another example is that the parking spaces are reserved mostly for small cars, so the use of small cars is encouraged. 1. When did Tom visit Beijing?

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions .

Yet its story is one of the least understood. But what is now the site of a spendid palace was once open countryside. As royal residences go, Buckingham Palace is something of a newcomer. The state rooms are less than 200 years old. Yet its history is much older and more dramatic than you might think.

2018A Part A This is one of the greatest masterpieces of Chinese landscape painting. When westerners first discovered Chinese paintings like this one, they could not see their value. To understand painting, you need to understand calligraphy. The character is not a picture of an object in the real world, but a symbol for an idea. As Chinese characters are symbols for ideas, so elements in a Chinese landscape, rocks, water, trees and mountains, became symbols of concepts. For the Chinese, pictures painted with a brush are symbols that carry both the surface meaning and additional hidden meanings. Chinese paintings are not just pretty pictures. They mean something. Part B 视频对话 W: Good afternoon, Dr. Brown. We are very honored to have you with us today. M: Thanks for inviting me, Mary. W: We know that you have been studying sleep and health for many years. M: Yes, I started my research in 2010. W: I know that good sleep makes me feel better, but I am not so sure about the specific health benefits of good sleep. M: Well, recently I have published a book named Sleep and Health. According to my research, good sleep benefits our mind, weight, heart and more. Yet, few of us realize that. Now more and more people, including young students, are having sleep problems. 1. 学生是如何受到睡眠影响的？ How are students affected by sleep? 电脑回答For children between the ages of 10 and 16, if they haven’t got enough sleep, they are more likely to have problems with attention and learning. College students who don’t get enough sleep have worse grades than those who do. So don’t sacrifice sleep even if you are trying to meet a deadline. Get a good sleep and you might get a good score. 2. 睡眠好还有其他什么好处吗？ Is there any other benefit of good sleep? 电脑回答Well, good sleep also helps you have a healthy weight. If you are thinking about going on a diet, you might need to plan an earlier bed time. People tend to feel more hungry and eat more when they get less sleep. Researchers find that dieter who sleep well lose more fat than those don’t. 3. 那意味着我们应该多睡觉吗？ Does that mean we should sleep more? 电脑回答Well, it depends. Too much or too little sleep is associated with a shorter lifespan. But sleep surely affects the quality of life. If you sleep better, you will certainly live better. It’s pretty clear. 1. When did Dr. Brown start his research on sleep and health?
2020年英语四级考试真题及答案(卷一完整版)
英语四级考试真题及答案(卷一完整 版) 范文： Writing：家长角色 There are several possible reasons accountable for this phenomenon(中心句). To begin with, family in growing numbers has only one child; therefore, parents oftentimes focus all their attentions on that child and exert much pressure on him or her(原因一). Moreover, numerous parents intend to realize their unfulfilled dreams by letting their children learn what they failed to learn and apply for the college by which they failed to be accepted, because they have become richer and they believe that they have the power to make what they wanted and want come true now(原因二). For instance, my uncle used to be a poor man and his dream that one day he would become a violinist was broken because of lack of money. But he made a fortune by selling coals, and then forced his son, my younger brother to practice playing violin. My brother was a huge fan of sports, but now he has to play violin everyday unwillingly and ofter quarrels with their parents(举例：原来-然后-结局). To sum up, it is unreasonable for parents to control their children’s life(总结句). In order to help them grow happily
