  听力对话部分简评:

  这次听力对话考查比较灵活,直接信息考查不多,需要简单推理的言外之意考查较多。

  下面是对话部分原文和选项,对照一下,正确答案就很清楚了。此处简单分析一下解题的关键。

  1. M: I think the hostess really went out of her way to make the party a success.

  W: Yes, the food and drinks were great, but if only we had known a few of the other guests.

  Q: What did the two speakers say about the party?

  1. A) They went a long way to attend the party.

  B) They didn't think much of the food and drinks.

  C) They knew none of the other guests at the party.

  D) They enjoyed the party better than the other guests.

  第1题里的虚拟语气…if only we had known a few of the other guests,表达了与过去事实相反的情况,“要是当时认识几个其他客人就好了”。问题的答案就是过去的事实,那就是他们不认识聚会上的其他客人。

  2. M: Can you stop by the post office and get me some envelopes and 39 cents’ stamps?

  W: Well, I am not going to stop by the post office, but I can buy you some at the bookstore after I see the dentist on Market street.

  Q: Where will the woman go first?

  2. A) To the bookstore.

  B) To the dentist's.

  C) To the market.

  D) To the post office.

  该题考查对话中动作信息的顺序问题,要求考生记住所有动作的内容,然后记住提到的顺序。同类考题是对话双方提及多个信息(如多个时间),然后随机考查其中某个具体信息。

  3. M: How do you like the new physician who replaced Dr. Andrews?

  W: He may not seem as agreeable or as thorough as Dr. Andrews, but at least he doesn’t keep patients waiting for hours.

  Q: What can we infer from the woman’s answer?

  3. A) Dr. Andrews has been promoted for his thoroughness.

  B) She disagrees with Dr. Andrews on many occasions.

  C) Dr. Andrews used to keep his patients waiting.

  D) She dislikes Dr. Andrews as much as the new physician.

  第3题,两人对话涉及到两个医生性格和习惯做法的对比。第二个说话人提到了新外科医生不会让病人久等几小时这一事实,正确的选项就是从这个对比推理出来的。该题难度系数较低。

  4. W: Tom must be in a bad mood today. He hasn’t said half a dozen words all afternoon.

  M: Oh, really? That’s not like the Tom we know.

  Q: What does the man imply?

  4. A) Tom is usually talkative.

  B) Tom has a very bad temper.

  C) Tom has dozens of things to attend to.

  D) Tom is disliked by his colleagues.

  第4题首先提到Tom现在的情绪不对头,整下午没说几句话。第二个人很惊讶,“That’s not like the Tom we know”,表明Tom今天的情绪和大家对他的一贯表现不同。答案很显然是Tom通常是健谈的(甚至可能是唐僧般的超级话匣子)。

  5. W: Do you have the seminar schedule with you? I’d like to find out the topic for Friday.

  M: I gave it to my friend, but there should be copies available in the library. I can pick one up for you.

  Q: What does the man promise to do?

  5. A) To pickup the woman from the library.

  B) To make a copy of the schedule for his friend.

  C) To find out more about the topic for the seminar.

  D) To get the seminar schedule for the woman.

  这个题目考查了信息指代的连续性,seminar schedule“研讨会日程表”是关键,后面的 “it”, “copies” 和 “one”都指向这一信息。问题就落在“one”上。注:seminar 大学里在教师指导下定期进行讨论的研究班/研讨会。

  6 W: I wonder if you could sell me the Psychology textbooks. You took the course last semester, didn’t you?

  M: As a matter of fact, I already sold them back to the school bookstore.

  Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

  6. A) The woman has to get the textbooks in other ways.

  B) The woman has sold her used textbooks to the bookstore.

  C) The man is going to buy his textbooks from a bookstore.

  D) The man doesn't want to sell his textbooks to the woman.

  推理题。原文男的说了书卖回给书店了,也就是不在自己手上了,言外之意就是女士得另想办法。注意,有的同学只听到textbooks和bookstore就选了B或C,中了偷梁换柱的圈套,这两个错误选项都利用了原文提到的信息,但从整个句子的意思来看却都歪曲了原文。

  7. W: Here is this week’s schedule, Tony. On Monday, there is the board meeting. Your speech to the lion’s club is on Tuesday afternoon. Then on Wednesday you have an appointment with your lawyer and…

  M: Wait, you mean the business conference on Tuesday is cancelled?

  Q: What will the man do this Tuesday?

  7. A) Attend a conference.

  B) Give a speech.

  C) Meet his lawyer.

  D) Make a business trip.

  这个题目与第2题有一点类似,这个要复杂一些,要求记住一堆时间和对应的事件/动作。题目考查的是记忆力,并不牵扯推理技巧。

  8. M: Can you believe it? Jessie told her boss he was wrong to have fired his marketing director.

  W: Yeah, but you know Jessie. If she has something in mind, everyone will know about it.

  Q: What does the woman mean?

  8 A) Jessie always says what she thinks.

  B) Jessie seems to have a lot on her mind.

  C) Jessie is wrong to find fault with her boss.

  D) Jessie should know the marketing director better.

  该题难度不大。答案是原文第二个人对Jessie的评价进行的改写。“无论她脑子里想什么,大家都会知道。”也就是她向来是直言不讳。

  9. M: We’ve got three women researchers in our group: Mary, Betty and Helen. Do you know them?

  W: Sure. Mary is active and sociable. Betty is the most talkative woman I’ve ever met. But guess what? Helen’s just the opposite.

  Q: What do we learn from the woman’s remark about Helen?

  9. A) Heien is talkative.

  B) Helen is active.

  C) Helen is sociable.

  D) Helen is quiet.

  这个题目信息复杂程度有一次提高。三个人的性格进行列举,“Helen’s just the opposite”表明她跟Betty进行了对比。根据Betty既然最健谈,那么Helen最文静。

  10.W: Jimmy said that he was going to marry a rich French businesswoman.

  M: Don’t be so sure. He once told me that he had bought a big house. Yet he’s still sharing an apartment with Mark.

  Q: What does the man imply?

  10. A) Jimmy will regret marrying a Frenchwoman.

  B) Jimmy is not serious in making decisions.

  C) Jimmy is rich enough to buy a big house.

  D) Jimmy's words are often not reliable.

  这个题目考查了转折的用法。Don’t be so sure意思是告诉对方不要太肯定Jimmy说的话。然后举例子说明Jimmy是如何不厚道,“他曾告诉我他买了大房子,但实际上仍跟人合住一个公寓”。

  Part II. 阅读理解答案

  21. D they have difficulty finding qualified personnel at home

  22. D seeks either his own or his children’s development

  23. A take cultural factors into consideration

  40. C. Not until they had the twins did they feel that had formed a family.

  阅读简评:

  这次阅读理解难度不大。从选材方面讲,以人文为主,辅以一篇自然学科的。从命题思路来看,没有什么明显变化,比如细节题上的偷梁换柱,常识错位,推理题上的夸大后果,主旨题的以偏概全。这些在我的冲刺讲义里都有详细的例子对应。大家可以到我个人网站www.tangqiming.com下载flash版的讲义做参考。

  我举一个犯错较多的例子简单解析一下。

  第一篇:讲跨国求职简历写作要求的。

  25. According to the author's last piece of advice, the applicants should be aware of________.

  A) the different educational systems in the US and the UK

  B) the differences between the varieties of English

  C) the recipient's preference with regard to the format

  D) the distinctive features of American and British cultures

  原文相关句有一点点迷惑性,但稍微有点英语语言常识的人不会犯低级错误的。

  [If you are submitting your resume in English, find out if the recipient (收件人) uses British English or American English because there are variations between the two versions. )For example, university education is often referred to as 'tertiary education' in the United Kingdom, but this term is almost never used in the United States. [A reader who is unfamiliar with these variations may assume that your resume contains errors.]

  根据我推荐的阅读方法,文章最后一段的主题句和结尾句是必读的,这里面已经有答案了,如果审查简历的人不了解英式英语和美式英语的差别,可能会把简历里的一些用法当成错误。在第二句使用了例子来说明两种英语的差别。因此答案并非是有的同学和老师理解的A选项“英美教育制度差异问题”。

  Part III. 词汇单选题答案

  41 A current

  42 B mood

  43 D evidence

  44 A held back

  45 D preferences

  46 C derive

  47 B occur

  48 D illegal

  49 A feature

  50 B forbids

  51 C penalty

  52 A distinguish

  53 D pick up

  54 C impression

  55 B participate

  56 D hold on to

  57 B tackle

  58 A state

  59 C significant

  60 D soared

  61 C symptoms

  62 A laid off

  63 B traced

  64 D proportion

  65 B burdened

  66 A performance

  67 C apply

  68 D affordable

  69 B treat

  70 D Inspired

  词汇题简评:

  词汇题难度较以往几次略有增大,难度大点的题目都需要考生通过句子信息间的逻辑关系来判断词汇短语的语境含义。本来比较简单的固定搭配题目也提出了类似要求。

  但只要掌握大纲内的积极词汇的基本含义和用法,学会经常分析句子意群之间的逻辑关系。这种题目的正确率就会大幅提高。下面举两个同学犯错最多的题目简单解析一下。

  56. Although they lost their jobs, savings and unemployment benefits allow the couple to____their comfortable home.

  A) come in for B) catch up with C) look forward to D) hold on to

  D选项短语hold on to 的意思是维持的意思。该题完全可以用代入排除法来确定逻辑含义最合理的选项。

  64. It is clear that the dog has a much greater_______ of its brain devoted to smell than is the case with humans.

  A) composition B) compound C) percent D) proportion

  这个题目有语法的比较成分在里面,对狗的大脑皮层和人的大脑皮层在嗅觉方面所占比例进行了比较。Proportion指比例。同学欠缺大脑科学方面的常识也可能是答题出现失误的原因。

  Part IV. 完形答案

  71. A ago

  72. C idea

  73. B come

  74. A indoor

  75. D revealed

  76. B down

  77. C safe

  78. A reduced

  79. D destroy

  80. B however

  81. C completely

  82. A or

  83. B fact

  84. D developed

  85. A starts

  86. D inevitably

  87. C instead

  88. C adopting

  89. B beneficial

  90. A entire

  完型填空简评:

  完型填空部分题目比较容易,很多同学在前几个题考虑太多,结果简单的题目复杂化,反而选错。比如71的ago, 73的 in years to come。

  记住完型填空的信息是环环相扣,我们推导答案多数需要参考左邻的信息,具体处理空白的方法要按意群进行停顿,然后选择。做题要贯彻先易后难的原则。

  Part V. 作文

  这次作文仍然是近几年常考的应用文体,但主体仍是考查说明文。

  因为是海报,我们可以使用口语体,比如guy等词汇。格式方面,海报不需要书信一样必须有称谓部分。但通常需要落款。作文我在六月初的四级冲刺课上里讲过了类似的招募信写法,留了题目,我回复了一些同学email给我的作文,相信他们这次作文会考得不错。

您认为6月17日的四级作文: 一般 不难
四级难度调查: 太难了 一般 不难    参加考后讨论
考完感觉: 十拿九稳 应该能过 心里没谱 唉,别提了
