英语专业四级TEM4听力听写原文1993—2013
英语专业四级考试1993年——203年听写原文 1993 Package Holidays Package holidays, covering a two weeks' stay in an attractive place, are increasingly popular. Once you get to the airport, it is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination．Everything is laid on for you．There is, in fact, no reason for you to bother to arrange anything yourselves．You make friends and have a good time. But there is very little chance that you will really get to know the local people．This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost your entire time traveling．Of course, there are carefully planned stops for you to visit historic buildings and monuments. You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient. But time is always short．There is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to spend you holiday with a group of people you have never met before． (1994) The American Family The American family unit is changing. There used to be mainly two types of families, the extended and the nuclear. The former included mother, father, children, and some other relatives such as grandparents, living in the same house or nearby. Then as the economy progressed from agricultural to industrial, people began moving to different parts of the country in order to search for job opportunities. These moves split up the extended family. The nuclear family consisting of only parents and children has therefore become far more wide spread. Today’s family, however, can be composed of diverse co mbinations. With the divorce rate nearly one in two, there's an increase in single-parent homes—a father or mother living with one or more children. Blended families occur when divorced men and women remarry and combine the children from former marriages into a new family. On the other hand, there is an increase in childless couples while one in rive Americans lives alone. (1995) Unidentified Flying Objects There are many explanations for why UFOs visit the Earth. / The most popular one is that they maybe visitors from other planets./ To fly such aircraft, their builders must develop different forms of aviation,/because they seem to fly much faster than normal aircraft./ The UFOs, it is believed, must contain scientists/ from other planets who are studying life on earth./ It is even believed that several such aircraft may have landed on earth/ and the space visitors may be living amongst us./ But there are also less fantastic explanations available./ Although some sightings of UFOs are difficult to explain, most can be explained quite easily./ In many cases the observers might have made a mistake./ They might have seen a weather balloon or an aircraft./ Or the light they saw in the sky might have been light from the ground,/ reflected on to the clouds./ However, the exact cause of many sightings still remained a mystery.

Unit 3 Text 1.From the periodic table, it can be seen that there are only about 100 different kinds of atoms in the entire Universe. (Unit 3, P21, Para 1, Line 1) 2.The atomic structure primarily affects the chemical, physical, thermal, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties.(Unit 3, P22, Para 5, Line 1) 3.The microstructure and macrostructure can also affect these properties but they generally have a larger effect on mechanical properties and on the rate of chemical reaction. (Unit 3, P22, Para 5, Line 2) 4.From elementary chemistry it is known that the atomic structure of any element is made up of positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons revolving around it. (Unit 3, P22, Para 6, Line 1) 5.An element’s atomic number indicates the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus.(Unit 3, P22, Para 6, Line 3) 6.The atomic weight of an atom indicates how many protons and neutrons in the nucleus. (Unit 3, P22, Para 6, Line 4) 7.It is also known that electrons are present with different energies and it is convenient to consider these electrons surrounding the nucleus in energy “shell”.(Unit 3, P22, Para 7, Line 2) 8.For example, magnesium, with an atomic number of 12, has two electrons in the inner shell, eight in the second shell and two in the other shell.(Unit 3, P22, Para 7, Line 4) 9.All chemical bonds involve electrons.(Unit 3, P22, Para 8, Line 1) 10.Atoms are at their most stable when they have no partially-filled electron shells. (Unit 3, P22, Para 8, Line 2) 11.When metal atoms bond, a metallic bond occurs.(Unit 3, P23, Para 1, Line 1) 12.The bond between two nonmetal atoms is usually a covalent bond.(Unit 3, P23, Para 1, Line 4) 13.Where metal and nonmetal atom come together an ionic bond occurs.(Unit 3, P23, Para 1, Line 4) Reading Material

[01:18.83]After all, the British weather wasn't very good, [01:22.39]even in summer, [01:23.72]so a lot of people left the country for a vacation. [01:28.24]In the 1980s and the 1990s, [01:31.43]young people in the UK became wealthier on average. [01:35.91]As a result, they started to go abroad in groups, [01:39.78]to places such as Spain and Greece. [01:43.75]Once they arrived at their destination, [01:46.27]they met with other groups of young people [01:48.87]and had one long party. [01:51.79]British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. [01:56.55]Climate change means [01:58.07]that the UK now has a hotter climate, [02:01.65]so people do not need to [02:03.21]go overseas to find good weather. [02:06.38]Also, going abroad is more expensive.
材料科学与工程专业英语第三版 翻译以及答案
UNIT 1 一、材料根深蒂固于我们生活的程度可能远远的超过了我们的想象，交通、装修、制衣、通信、娱乐（recreation）和食品生产，事实上（virtually），我们生活中的方方面面或多或少受到了材料的影响。历史上，社会的发展和进步和生产材料的能力以及操纵材料来实现他们的需求密切（intimately）相关，事实上，早期的文明就是通过材料发展的能力来命名的（石器时代、青铜时代、铁器时代）。 二、早期的人类仅仅使用（access）了非常有限数量的材料，比如自然的石头、木头、粘土（clay）、兽皮等等。随着时间的发展，通过使用技术来生产获得的材料比自然的材料具有更加优秀的性能。这些性材料包括了陶瓷（pottery）以及各种各样的金属，而且他们还发现通过添加其他物质和改变加热温度可以改变材料的性能。此时，材料的应用（utilization）完全就是一个选择的过程，也就是说，在一系列有限的材料中，根据材料的优点来选择最合适的材料，直到最近的时间内，科学家才理解了材料的基本结构以及它们的性能的关系。在过去的100年间对这些知识的获得，使对材料性质的研究变得非常时髦起来。因此，为了满足我们现代而且复杂的社会，成千上万具有不同性质的材料被研发出来，包括了金属、塑料、玻璃和纤维。 三、由于很多新的技术的发展，使我们获得了合适的材料并且使得我们的存在变得更为舒适。对一种材料性质的理解的进步往往是技术的发展的先兆，例如：如果没有合适并且没有不昂贵的钢材，或者没有其他可以替代（substitute）的东西，汽车就不可能被生产，在现代、复杂的（sophisticated）电子设备依赖于半导体（semiconducting）材料 四、有时，将材料科学与工程划分为材料科学和材料工程这两个副学科
