2015年12月大学英语4级真题答案（第二套）Part I WritingLearning Should Be A Lifelong ProcessIt is often said that learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission, which indicates the importance of lifelong learning we have been lectured over and over again.Lifelong learning is crucial to our life and career in modern society. Living in such an era of rapid development of information, we have to keep pace with times through ceaseless learning; otherwise, we’ll be too out to seize many opportunities. For example, a taxi driver who learns to use a Taxi App such as Didi can make much more money than those who don’t every day; a housewife who opens a shop online can even out-earn a white-collar worker. All of their successes can be attributed to their constant learning in addition to the progress of technology.There is an old saying that you are never too old to learn. Thus, learning is an attitude regardless of age. Only through learning ceaselessly can we achieve our potential and live a better life in this rapidly developing society.Part II Listening ComprehensionSection A1.

gases.29these“dirty snowballs”begin to orbit the sun,just as the planets do.As a comet gets closer to the sun,some gases in it begin to unfreeze.They30 dust particles from the comet to form a huge cloud.As the comet gets even nearer to the sun,a solar wind blows the cloud behind the comet,thus forming its tail.The tail and the31fuzzy(模糊的)atmosphere around a comet are32that can help identify this33in the night sky.In any given year,about a dozen known comets come close to the sun in their orbits.The average person can’t see them all,of ually there is only one or two a year bright enough to be seen with et Hale-Bopp,discovered in 1995,was an unusually bright comet.Its orbit brought it35close to the Earth,within 122million miles of it.But Hale-Bopp came a long way on its earthly

the following passage.Scholars of the information society are divided over whether social inequality decreases or increases in an information-based society.However,they generally agree with the idea that inequality in the information society is36different from that of an industrial society.As informatization progresses in society,the cause and structural nature of social inequality changes as well.It seems that the information society37the quantity of information available to the members of a society by revolutionizing the ways of using and exchanginginformation.But such a view is a38analysis based on the quantity of information supplied by various forms of the mass media.A different39is possible when the actual amount of information40by the user is taken into account.In fact,the more information41throughout the entire society,the wider the gap becomes between “information haves”and“information have-nots”,leading to digital divide.According to recent studies,digital divide has been caused by three major42：class,sex,and generation.In terms of class,digital divide exists among different types of workers and between the upper and middle classes and the lower class.With 43to sex,digital divide exists between men and women.The greatest gap,however,is between the Net-generation,44with personal computers and the Internet,and the older generation,45to an industrial society.A)AccustomedB)AcquiredC)AssemblyD)AttributeE)ChampionsF)ElementsG)ExpandsH)FamiliarI)FlowsJ)FundamentallyK)InterpretationL)PassiveM)RegardN)RespectivelyO)SuperficialSection BDirections:In this section,you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.Each statement contains information given in one of theparagraphs.Identify the paragraph from which the information isderived.You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraphis marked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking thecorresponding letter on Answer Sheet2.Joy:A Subject Schools LackBecoming educated should not require giving up pleasure.A)When Jonathan Swift proposed,in1729,that the people of Ireland eat their children,he insisted it would solve three problems at once：feed the hungry masses, reduce the population during a severe depression,and stimulate the restaurant business.Even as a satire(讽刺),it seems disgusting and shocking in America with its child-centered culture.But actually,the country is closer to his proposal than you might think.B)If you spend much time with educators and policy makers,you’ll hear a lotof the following words:“standards,”“results,”“skills,”“self-control,”“accountability,”and so on.I have visited some of the newer supposedly“effective”schools,where children shout slogans in order to learn self-control or must stand behind their desk when they can’t sit still.C)A look at what goes on in most classrooms these days makes it abundantly clear that when people think about education,they are not thinking about what it feels like to be a child,or what makes childhood an important and valuable stage of life in its own right.D)I’m a mother of three,a teacher,and a developmental psychologist.So I’ve watched a lot of children—talking,playing,arguing,eating,studying,and being young.Here’s what I’ve come to understand.The thing that sets children apart from adults is not their ignorance,nor their lack of skills.It’s their enormous capacity for joy.Think of a3-year-old lost in the pleasures of finding out what he can and cannot sink in the bathtub,a5-year-old beside herself with the thrill of putting together strings of nonsensical words with her best friends,or an11-year-old completely absorbed in a fascinating comic strip.A child’s ability to become deeply absorbed in something,and derive intense pleasure from that absorption,is something adults spend the rest of their lives trying to return to.E)A friend told me the following story.One day,when he went to get his 7-year-old son from soccer practice,his kid greeted him with a downcast face and a sad voice.The coach had criticized him for not focusing on his soccer drills.The little boy walked out of the school with his head and shoulders hanging down.He seemed wrapped in sadness.But just before he reached the car door,he suddenly stopped, crouching(蹲伏)down to peer at something on the sidewalk.His face went down lower and lower,and then,with complete joy he called out,“e here.This is the strangest bug I’ve ever seen.It has,like,a million legs.Look at this.It’s amazing.”He looked up at his father,his features overflowing with energy and delight.“Can’t we stay here for just a minute?I want to find out what he does with all those legs.This is the coolest ever.”F)The traditional view of such moments is that they constitute a charming but irrelevant byproduct of youth—something to be pushed aside to make room for more important qualities,like perseverance(坚持不懈),obligation,and practicality.Yet moments like this one are just the kind of intense absorption and pleasure adults spend the rest of their lives seeking.Human lives are governed by the desire to experience joy.Becoming educated should not require giving up joy but rather lead to finding joy in new kinds of things:reading novels instead of playing with small figures, conducting experiments instead of sinking cups in the bathtub,and debating serious issues rather than stringing together nonsense words,for example.In some cases, schools should help children find new,more grown-up ways of doing the same things that are constant sources of joy:making art,making friends,making decisions.G)Building on a child’s ability to feel joy,rather than pushing it aside,wouldn’t be that hard.It would just require a shift in the education world’s mindset（思维模式）. Instead of trying to get children to work hard,why not focus on getting them to take pleasure in meaningful,productive activity,like making things,working with others,exploring ideas,and solving problems?These focuses are not so different from the things in which they delight.H)Before you brush this argument aside as rubbish,or think of joy as an unaffordable luxury in a nation where there is awful poverty,low academic achievement,and high dropout rates,think again.The more horrible the school circumstances,the more important pleasure is to achieving any educational success.I)Many of the assignments and rules teachers come up with,often because they are pressured by their administrators,treat pleasure and joy as the enemies of competence and responsibility.The assumption is that children shouldn’t chat in the classroom because it hinders hard work;instead,they should learn to delay gratification(快乐)so that they can pursue abstract goals,like going to college.J)Not only is this a boring and awful way to treat children,it makes no sense educationally.Decades of research have shown that in order to acquire skills and real knowledge in school,kids need to want to learn.You can force a child to stay in his or her seat,fill out a worksheet,or practice division.But you can’t force the child to think carefully,enjoy books,digest complex information,or develop a taste for learning.To make that happen,you have to help the child find pleasure in learning—to see school as a source of joy.K)Adults tend to talk about learning as if it were medicine:unpleasant,but necessary and good for you.Why not instead think of learning as if it were food—something so valuable to humans that they have evolved to experience it as a pleasure?L)Joy should not be trained out of children or left for after-school programs. The more difficult a child’s life circumstances,the more important it is for that child to find joy in his or her classroom.“Pleasure”is not a dirty word.And it doesn’t run counter to the goals of public education.It is,in fact,the precondition.46.It will not be difficult to make learning a source of joy if educators change their way of thinking.47.What distinguishes children from adults is their strong ability to derive joy from what they are doing.48.Children in America are being treated with shocking cruelty.49.It is human nature to seek joy in life.50.Grown-ups are likely to think that learning to children is what medicine is to patients.51.Bad school conditions make it all the more important to turn learning into a joyful experience.52.Adults do not consider children’s feelings when it comes to education.53.Administrators seem to believe that only hard work will lead children to their educational goals.54.In the so-called“effective”schools,children are taught self-control under a set of strict rules.55.To make learning effective,educators have to ensure that children want to learn.Section CDirections:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are fourchoices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choiceand mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2with a single line,through the centre.Passage OneQuestions56to60are based on the following passage.When it’s five o’clock,people leave their office.The length of the workday,for many workers,is defined by time.They leave when the clock tells them they’re done.These days,the time is everywhere:not just on clocks or watches,but on cell-phones and computers.That may be a bad thing,particularly at work.New research shows that clock-based work schedules hinder morale(士气)and creativity.Clock-timers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours.For example：a meeting from9a.m.to10a.m.,research from10a.m.to noon,etc.On the other hand,task-timers have a list of things they want to accomplish.They work down the list,each task starts when the previous task is completed.It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.What,then,are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways?Does one make us more productive?Better at the tasks at hand?Happier?In experiments conducted by Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier,they had participants organize different activities—from project planning,holiday shopping,to yoga—by time or to-do list to measure how they performed under“clock time vs“task time.”They found clock timers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their lives.Task timers are happier and more creative,but less productive.They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening,and seize opportunities that come up.The researchers argue that task-based organizing tends to be undervalued and under-supported in business culture.Smart companies,they believe,will try to bake more task-based planning into their strategies.This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office,but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy:work organized by dock time.While most people will still probably need,and be,to some extent,clock-timers,task-based timing should be used when perfoming a job that requires more creativity.It’ll make those tasks easier,arid the task-doers will be happier.56.What does the author think of time displayed everywhere?A)It makes everybody time-conscious.B)It is a convenience for work and lifeC)It may have a negative effect on creative work.D)It clearly indicates the fast pace of modem life.57.How do people usually go about their work according to the author?A)They combine clock-based and task-based planning.B)They give priority to the most urgent task on hand.C)They set a time limit for each specific task.D)They accomplish their tasks one by one.58.What did Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier find in their experiments about clocks timers?A)They seize opportunities as they come up.B)They always get their work done in time.C)They have more control over their lives.D)They tend to be more productive.59.What do the researchers say about today’s business culture?A)It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.B)It does not attach enough importance to task-based practice.C)It places more emphasis on work efficiency than on workers5lives.D)It aims to bring employees,potential and creativity into full play.60.What do the researchers suggest?A)Task-based timing is preferred for doing creative work.B)It is important to keep a balance between work and life.C)Performing creative jobs tends to make workers happier.D)A scientific standard should be adopted in job evaluation.Passage TwoQuestions61to65are based on the following passage.Martha Stewart was charged,tried and competed of a crime in2004.As she neared the end of her prison sentence,a well-known columnist wrote that she was “paying her dues,”and that“there is simply no reason for anyone to attempt to deny her right to start anew.”Surely,the American ideal of second chances should not be reserved only for the rich and powerful.Unfortunately,many federal and state laws impose post-conviction restrictions on a shockingly large number of Americans,who are prevented from ever fully paying their debt to society.At least65million people in the United States have a criminal record.This can result in severe penalties that continue long after punishment is completed.Many of these penalties are imposed regardless of the seriousness of the offense or the person’s individual ws can restrict or ban voting,access to public housing,and professional and business licensing.They can affect a person’s ability to get a job and qualification for benefits.In all,more than45,000laws and rules serve to exclude vast numbers of people from fully participating in American life.Some laws make sense.No one advocates letting someone convicted of pedophilia（恋童癖）work in a school.But too often collateral(附随的）consequences bear no relation to public safety.Should a woman who possessed a small amount of drugs years ago be permanently unable to be licensed as a nurse?These laws are also counterproductive,since they make it harder for people with criminal records to find housing or land a job,two key factors that reduce backsliding.A recent report makes several recommendations,including the abolition of most post-conviction penalties,except for those specifically needed to protect public safety. Where the penalties are not a must,they should be imposed only if the facts of a case support it.The point is not to excuse or forget the crime.Rather,it is to recognize that in America’s vast criminal justice system,second chances are crucial.It is in no one’s interest to keep a large segment of the population on the margins of society.61.What does the well-known columnist’s remark about Martha Stewart suggest?A)Her past record might stand in her way to a new life.B)Her business went bankrupt while she was in prison.C)Her release from prison has drawn little attention.D)Her prison sentence might have been extended.62.What do we learn from the second paragraph about many criminals in America?A)They backslide after serving their terms in prison.B)They are deprived of chances to turn over a new leaf.C)They receive severe penalties for committing minor offenses.D)They are convicted regardless of their individual circumstances.63.What are the consequences for many Americans with a criminal record?A)They remain poor for the rest of their lives.B)They are deprived of all social benefits.C)They are marginalized in society.D)They are deserted by their family.64.What does the author think of the post-conviction laws and rules?A)They help to maintain social stability.B)Some of them have long been outdated.C)They are hardly understood by the public.D)A lot of them have negative effects on society.65.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A)To create opportunities for criminals to reform themselves.B)To appeal for changes in America’s criminal justice system.C)To ensure that people with a criminal record live a decent life.D)To call people’s attention to prisoners’conditions in America.Part IV Translation(30minutes) Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet2.中国父母往往过于关注孩子的学习，以至于不要他们帮忙做家务。

2015年12月英语四级作文带翻译

2015年12月英语四级作文带翻译2015年12月英语四级作文带翻译题目Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying ‘Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission.” You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of lifelong learning. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.：Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission. This is a proverb full of logic. In other words, learning is significant in our whole life. Indeed, we can learn many things from it. If you understand it and apply it to your study or work, you’ll necessarily benefit a lot from it.There are many reasons which can explain this phenomenon and the following are the typical ones. The first reason is that learning can light our road in the coming future. There is no denying the fact that the society is developing increasingly fast and we are often easily surpassed by the people around. The only way to avoid this is to learn to improve ourselves. As an illustration, I’d like to take myself as an example. After graduation from college, my life has been full of working pressure, which contributes to my decision of pursuing further education. That’s why I can make m y own way in such a competitive society.The effect of learning can be boiled down to two major ones.

中国父母还认为，如果孩子能在社会上取得大的成就，父母就会受到尊敬。

因此，他们愿意牺牲自己的时间、爱好和兴趣，为孩子创造更好的条件。

The sole requirement they have on their children is that they should study hard, get good grades, and enter top-tier universities. Chinese parents are fully convinced that thi s is to the benefits of their children. Since in a country like China where competition is fierce and ubiquitous, good grades mean a promising future.

Therefore, they are willing to sacrifice their time, hobbies and interest to create a more favorable condition for their kids.【题目】云南省的丽江古镇是中国著名的旅游目的地之一。

2015年12月四级英语考试真题与答案解析作文（一）周思远题目：For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Learning is a daily experience and a lifelong mission。

”You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of lifelong learning。

You should write at least 120 words，no more than 180 words。

参考范文：Currently in this constantly changing world，learning becomes a seemingly convenient but actually more complex matter。

As an old saying goes，”Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission”。

Apparently，the meaning of this saying is that if we truly desire to learn something，we are supposed to devote our life to it。

There are several reasons accounting for this viewpoint。

For one thing，learning itself is an actually complicated and painful matter，and as a result，it is advisable for us to commit much more time even our whole life to it。

Listening Is More Important Than TalkingAs we all know, talking and listening are commonly used in communication, but how can yo u talk without listening to others? Good conversation skills include much more than simply t alking to others, listening is also a necessary quality of a successful person.I firmly believe that listening is of greater significance than talking. For one thing, If you can not listen correctly, you can not talk properly. Just imagine a world where everyone keep tal king but nobody listening, it's useless to say anything then. For another, if you want to make achievement in social settings, relationships and business, one way to ensure your successis to be a great listener.Therefore, in order to enhance our conversation skills, here are a few simple rules we can foll ow to help us become a better listener, such as stopping talking endlessly, giving your full att ention to the speaker and making an effort to shift the focus of the conversation to the other p erson. All in all, nothing can take place of listening!The Importance of Being Participants in LifeNowadays it is common to encounter a scene when people want to see things happen but can' t make things happen for various kinds of reasons. Sometimes, they just refuse to be the chan ge in the world.As far as I am concerned, we should all have the notion of being the participant in our life. F or instance, one can't have a healthy body by merely watching others take regular exercises. He must strengthen his body through his own efforts. Another case is that when people inten d to acquire new skills, such as public speaking skill, they need to catch every opportunity to speak in the public so that they can achieve success. Furthermore, there are changes we want to see in the world, like protecting the environment effectively, and the only way to make a d ifference is that each of us should be a contributing participant.In conclusion, let's go out there to make things happen, just as the saying goes: "Be the chang e you want to see in the world."Never go out there to see what happens, go out there to make things happen.There is an old saying “Never go out there to see what happens, go out there to make things happen”.It’s the experience of our forefather，however，it is correct in many cases even today. Only when you participate more can you make things perfect. Participation has been more an d more important in the society. Students are asked to enter society and get some ideas of it. Surely participation has many advantages. Firstly, it can offer students a chance to contact society and meet different kinds of people. In this way people can gain some valuable social experience, which will be useful to their future life. Secondly, as college students, we can ap ply what they have learned in class to practical work, thus knowing themselves more clearly. Take the study of oral English for example, participation in any chances of communications with others in English, which enables us to become fluent in speaking.In summary, participation is the key factor in our daily life no matter who you are, no matter what you are doing. We should put their studies in the first place and see participation just as a useful supplement, so they ought to try to strike a balance between them.汉语演讲比赛The Annual Chinese Speech Contest for Foreigners was held in Changsha this year.

题一：1936年竺可桢授命出任浙江大学[微博]校长。

在此之前，他已经是一位声名卓著的自然科学家了。

从1936年到1949年，竺可桢当了十三年大学校长。

在连绵不断的战争、学运的夹缝中，在极为恶劣的环境下，他跋涉五千里、五易校址、历经五省、颠沛流离，居然将这所他接手时只有三个学院、十六个系的大学办成了拥有七个学院、二十七个学系全国最完整的两所大学之一。

参考答案：In 1936,Zhu Kezhen was appointed as the principal of Zhejiang University.Even before then,he had been a famous natural scientist.From 1936 to 1949,Zhu Kezhen worked as the university principal for 13 years.In the extremely hostile environment filled with converging attacks by continuous wars and various university affairs,being homeless and miserable,he trudged 5,000 li and drifted from place to place through 5 provinces,with the university location being changed 5 times.He actually developed the university into one of the nation's two most integrated universities composed of 7 schools and 27 departments,compared with only 3 schools and 16 departments when he took it over。

他跋涉五千里、五易校址、历经五省、颠沛流离，分析：颠沛流离：drifted from place to place,这个词还有另外一层意思就是“无家可归，生活痛苦”，为了意思表达的全面，将“homeless and miserable”以分词形式作伴随状语译出，可以表达这是一种持续的状态。

题二：乒乓球在中国是一项颇受欢迎和推崇的运动。

长期以来，它的确是中国唯一的运动，似乎集足球、篮球和棒球于一身，但却更受欢迎。

任何人都可以打乒乓球，所需的只是一副拍子(paddle)、一个球、一张桌子和一张网而已，这些都易于临时拼凑(improvise)。

人们可以在休息间隙或消磨时间时打兵兵球。

在中国的学校、工厂甚至某些公司里，都能找到乒兵球桌。

参考答案：Table tennis is a sport which gains much popularity and praise in China. For a long time, it has really been the only sport in China and seemed to set football,basketball and baseball all rolled into one, but it was more popular. Anyonecan play table tennis, for all required are a pair of paddles and ball and a table and net, which are easy to be improvised. People can play it when taking a break or killing time.You can find table-tennis tables in schools, factories or even some companies all over China。

题三：如今，越来越多的大学生抱怨很难找到好工作。

造成这一现象的原因如下：首先，大学生把在校的大多数时间都用在了专业学科学习上，只有当他们开始找工作的时候，才意识到自己缺乏必要的职业培训。

其次，大学生之间的竞争也越来越激烈，这导致任何一名大学生找到工作的机会都变小了。

因此，强烈建议大学生在课余时间做一些兼职工作，以积累相关的工作经验。

参考答案：Nowadays, more and more university students complain about having great difficulties in finding a good job. The reasons for this phenomenon are as follows: First, college students spend most of their time at school studying academic subjects andit is only when they start looking for a job that they realize they lack necessary job training. Second, competition among graduates has become more and more fierce. And this results in a decreased chance for any individual graduate to find a job. Therefore, it is highly suggested that college students should do some part-time jobs in their spare time to accumulate relevant working experience。

难点精析1.抱怨很难找到好工作：翻译为complain about having great difficulties in finding a good job。

其中“抱怨做某事”用句型complain about doing sth。

表示，having great difficulties in finding a good job表示“找工作有困难”，用到了句型have difficulties in doing sth.。

2.只有当他们开始找工作的时候，才意识到自己缺乏必要的职业培训：翻译为it is only when they start looking for a job that they realize they lack necessary job training。

‘只有当才’用强调句型it is only when…that…表示。

3.导致：翻译为results in,同义短语有lead to和bring about，但是表示不好的结果时一般用短语result in。

4.强烈建议：翻译为it is highly suggested that...，其中highly suggested也可以用 strongly recommended 替换，都表示“强烈建议做某事”。

5.积累相关的工作经验：翻译为accumulate relevant working experience。

题四：中国一个幅员辽阔、资源丰富、历史悠久的多民族国家，每个民族都有其独特的丰富菜肴。

地域菜系在地理环境、气候、文化传统、民族风俗和其他因素的影响下经过悠久历史的发展已经成形。

最有影响力、最具代表性的是鲁、川、粵、闽、苏、浙、湘、徽菜系，这八种被人们称为“八大菜系”。

中国的“八大菜系”是以多种多样的烹饪方法区分的，各有其长处。

汉译英：China is a time-honored multi-ethnics nation with a vast territory and abundant resources, and every ethnic group has its unique abundant dishes. Regional cuisines have taken shape after long-history evolution under the influence of geographical environment, climate, cultural tradition, folk customs and other factors. The most influential and representative ones are Lu, Chuan，Yue, Min, Su，Zhe, Xiang and Hui Cuisines, which are commonly known as “Eight Major Cuisines”. Dishes in the “Eight Major Cuisines” in China are characterized by diversified cooking skills, with each having its strong points。

题五：中国城市化(urbanization)将会充分释放潜在内需(domestic demand)。

一些经济学家指出，在中国几乎所有的发展中城市都面临着城市化的进程。

这使得许多人的生活水平有所提高，也为人们提供更多的就业机会。

随着越来越多的人向城市迁徙，住房及城市基础设施建设(infrastructure construction)，包括水源等能源的供应将会成为城市发展的焦点问题。

商品与服务的自由、快速流通是城市化社会的一项基本特征。

逐渐扩张的城市需要更多的零售店来满足消费者的需求。

汉译英：China’s urbanization will release the full potential of domestic demand. Some economists point out that urbanization is a process that is occurring in nearly every developing city in the country. It will lead to a better quality of life for many people，and provide individuals with more job opportunities. The construction of housing and city infrastructure, in?cluding water and energy supplies, will be a focal point of urban develop?ment as more people migrate to cities. Urbanization means better access to educational and medical resources in the city. But it also predicts less use of personal vehicles and more use of public transportation. The fast, free flow of goods and services is a basic trait of an urbanized society. Ex-panding cities require more retail outlets to serve customers。
