2016英语四级口语考试训练题及参考答案（2）
4. What kind of activities do you take part in during your free time? Many students may feel that college life is boring. They do not know how to deal with plenty of spare time. But I think the college life will become wonderful as long as we make it meaningful. In fact, we can do all kinds of activities which we are interested in. Do not be nervous. (1) In my spare time, I often do sports. Doing sports can enhance our physical (mental) development. It can keep fit and make us staying in health. I’ll learn some self-defense skills from it. By doing sports, I also learn how to communicate and interact with others. I like running. It is exciting. I feel close to nature when running .And it shows what upper limit human physique can reach after finishing a full running. Sometimes, I often play basketball, football, badminton table tennis, and so on. You know, table tennis is very popular activity on campus. It is a national sport. Not only do students like it, but many teachers like it. Playing table tennis can train my brain, especially my eyes . After studying for a long time, My eyes are tied and hurt. So it is good choice to play table tennis with my classmates for relaxing ourselves. I’m a big basketball fan, even though I’m not good at playing basketball myself. I like Yao Ming, so I love to watch the NBA on TV whenever I get a chance. (2) In my free time, I often surf on the internet. With the development of computers throughout the world, more and more people have access to the Internet. I know it has disadvantage to spend too much time using it. But I just use it to get a lot of information by browsing different websites. In fact, the Internet has changed our conventional ways for work, communication, entertainment and expression. Apart from using the Internet for professional purposes, I also use it to communicate with families and friends by sending and receiving e-mails, talking with others and playing games such bridge or chess with partners or opponents they don’t see. I also use the BBS to express my opinions in ways otherwise impossible. In general, spending too much time surfing on the interest is not good to a person. We should have a right attitude to it and make use of it correctly for our study. Studying in college is a brand new start of our life. We can continue to study hard for the better scores. If we want to show our talents and skills we can join in all kinds of activities. By so , we can have a wonderful college life! 5. Is it necessary for students to take part in the social activity during the free time? Everybody knows that study is one of the most important things for the young people, and a lot of people think that young men should study everyday to get a good score. But I do not agree with such an idea, my opinion is that the social activity and study are good friends. I have 3 main aspects to support my idea. Firstly, the purpose of study is to do more contributions to the society, is to serve for the work. We learn more and more things in order to work easier and easier in the future, so social activity is the checking standard of study. Secondly, the social activity can make us know what is our weakpoint and what we should learn in the future. For example, if I can not use computer in my social work, I must ask myself to learn it well so as to improve my work. Finally, the social activity is also a kind of rest for us after study. From what has talked above, we can safely draw a conclusion that the social activity is a good partner of study, we should make use of the relations between them to create a good future. 6. Can you tell us something about the after-class activities at your college (university)? When the classes are over, students burst out of the classroom buildings. Tired after a whole of serious study, they mostly spend one or two hours to relax and refresh themselves. If you take a walk on campus, you will get an idea about what students do after class. On the playgrounds, various kinds of sports activities are going on. You will see students jogging or playing ball games. Some of them may only be practicing, some are competing seriously against each other. On the weekends, members of various clubs meet at this time. Some students are learning painting, calligraphy or paper-cut, while others simply sit around and talk. The drama group is rehearsing and the school chorus is practicing. Andthere is also a film show on Saturday. On Sundays or holidays we often have concerts, plays, or parties. Sometimes we organize picnic, climbing mountains, visits to exhibitions of factories. From time to time we invite professors from different fields to give lectures, they are qualified, professional and helpful. Through the after-class activities, we widen our horizon, makes friends, have fun at the same time, the most important is, we learn many thing that we can’t in class. It is these activities that make our college life colorful and unforgettable.。

A) They were found quite nutritious.B) There were serious food shortages.C) People discovered their medicinal value.D) Farm machines helped lower their prices.Automakers and tech companies are working hard to offer the first trueself-driving car,but 75% of drivers say they wouldn't feel safe in such a vehicle.Still, 60% of drivers would like to get some kind of self-driving feature, such as automatic braking or self-parking, the next time they buy a new car.The attitudes are published in a new AAA (Triple A) survey of 1,800 drivers. Advocates of self-driving cars argue they would be safer than cars driven by humans because they wouldn't get distracted or drive when tired.But those surveyed by AAA say they trust their own driving skills.Many feel the technology is too new and unproven.John Nielsen, AAA's managing director of automotive engineering and repair, said tests suggest drivers may be overestimating their own abilities.He also believes they will be more likely to trust self-driving cars as they become more familiar with features such as automatic braking or parking.He estimated that the "comfort level" will increase considerably in five to ten years.Questions 1 to 2 are based on the news report you have just heard. Question 1: What is the finding of the AAA survey?Question 2: What does John Nielsen say about self-driving cars?M: Hi, Susan! You're looking very smart today.W: I always look smart, James. Actually I'm on my way to a job interview. M: What job? Oh, you mean for the summer holidays?W: Yeah, there is only two weeks to go. I've got a second interview with that big foreign accountancy firm in the city center. You know the one.M: That's fantastic!W: The work is just helping out with the data input, you know, but the pay isn't too bad. It might suit you too. I know they have released two temporary positions available. And I don't think they have anyone else yet.M: Um, if they take you on, tell them you know a friend who'd be really good too.I really need the money and the experience will look good on my resume. Maybe we'll be working together, the dream team.W: OK, we'll do. If the boss likes me, I'll mention it. It will be good to have someone around who I know. I'll phone you afterwards. But perhaps you should put in an application anyway.M: Thanks, Susan. That's great! Listen, do you want a lift to the city? I have my dad's car today and nothing else to do this morning.W: Sure. Thanks, James.M: Let's go then. The car is over there.W: By the way, how is your knowledge of accountancy? The interviewer may ask you about it.M: No problem. I think I can survive.

Question 8: Where will Susan probably get a job?Question 9: What will Susan's future job involve?Question 10: Why does James want the job in that company?Question 11: What does James say he will have to do to prepare for the interview?Wild carrots probably evolved with the other flowering plants, about 360 million years ago.Like apples, carrots are native to Central Asia.That's why horses, which also come from Central Asia, like both apples and carrots so much.With wild carrots, the roots are white, small and skinny, so we have to pick a lot of wild carrots to get enough to eat.Doctors used carrot seeds and roots as medicine, on the theory that foods that taste bad must be good for you.Around 800 AD, people in Central Asia, managed to develop a new kind of carrot-a purple carrot that attracted more interest from international traders. Then in the late 1500s, food scientists in the Netherlands cultivated large, straight, sweet, red carrots like the ones we eat today,but people still mostly fed carrots to horses,donkeys and pigs, and didn't eat them themselves.In the 1600, people in China used carrots as medicine, but they also ate carrots boiled in soup.The red color was popular for Chinese New Year celebrations.But carrots got their biggest boost during the two World Warswhen food shortages force people to eat them and governments told everyone how healthy carrots were.Today, cooler countries grow most of the world's carrots.Machines do most of the planting and picking.And carrots are easy to store and ship, so they are cheap almost everywhere. Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard. Question 16: What do we learn from the talk about wild carrots?Question 17: What does the speaker say about carrots in the late 1500s? Question 18: Why did people turn to carrots for food during the two world wars?1. C.Most drivers feel uncertain about the safety of self-driving cars.2. A.Their drivers would feel safe after getting used to the automatic devices.3. C.Attacks on some Iditarod race competitors.4. B.He has won the Alaska Iditarod Race four times.5.

(屏幕显示以下文字)
Many people would list San Francisco as one of the most delightful cities in the world. Sitting on the Pacific coast, it gives you a feeling of the sea. The sea breezes wake you up and make you eat well and sleep well. The city was planned with straight roads, and these roads cross each other at right angles, making squares as they do in many American cities. Very often you can find yourself on top of a hill in the city, looking down one of these straight roads as it rises and falls on its journey through the town. A good way to travel these roads is by cable car. These are buses that run on rails in the ground up and down the steep hills.
