2015年6月大学英语四级真题答案与详解(第3套)Part IWriting这是一篇四级考试中常见的图画作文。图片中展现的是一个女孩告诉妈妈她考入了妈妈心中理想的学校，其寓意是揭露现如今的家长为孩子做重大决定的普遍现象。做自己命运的主人正如图片中生动描绘的那样，一个女孩正在告诉她的妈妈：“好消息，我被你选择的大学录取了。”但讽刺的是，“你选择的”这几个字揭露了一个事实，那就是这个刚刚被实现的梦想并不属于这个女孩。现如今的一个普遍现象是父母为孩子做很多决定，甚至在他们人生的重大转折点，包括选择大学和专业、找工作或是结婚：很多原因可以解释这一现象。首先，父母总是认为他们可以比孩子做出更明智的决定。而且，对于家里的独生子女，父母给予了太多的关注。此外，父母让孩子做他们想让孩子做的事情，好像这是实现他们自己未实现的梦想的唯一途径。对青少年来说，人生道路很漫长。他们最终要自己做决定。而成为自己命运的主人是成长过程中的一大步。主题词汇play a negative role扮演一个不好的角色focus ol1关注control控制unreasonable不合理的realize oneS dream实现某人的梦想psychologically心理上句式拓展1More and more modem parents play a negative role in theirchildrens growth越来越多的现代家长在孩子的成长过程中扮演一个不好的角色。2Childrenshouldgrowina psychologically happyenvironment and realize their own dreams孩子们应该在一个心理上快乐的环境中成长并且实现他们自己的梦想。Part IIListening Comprehension说明：本套试题的听力部分由往年真题听力优化而来。1.

Todays presentation will show how we see the development of themotor car in the short to medium term, and that is why we have invited all of you here today. Lets start withpower. Its clear that petrol-driven engines have no future. Already there are many alternative fuel vehicles onthe market, powered by anything from solar power to natural gas. Some independent thinkers have evenproduced cars that run on vegetable oil. But as we all know, of all these alternative fuel vehicles, the mostpractical are electric vehicles. (24. Sure, in the past electric vehicles have their problems, namely, a limiteddriving range and very few recharging points, which limited their use.(25. Now, however, recentdevelopments in electric vehicle technology mean they can match conventional petrol engines in terms ofperformance and safety. Lets not forget that electric vehicles are cleaner. Plus, importantly, the power sourceis rechargeable, so this does not involve using any valuable resources. Moving on to communications, verysoon, cars will be linked to GPS satellites, so theyll do all the driving for you. What controls the main for theusers will be audio-based. So, for example, youll just have to say a bit warmer, and the air conditioningwill adjust automatically. Youll also be able to receive e-mail, music and movies, all via an internet link. Sojust type in the destination you want, sit back, sleep, watch a movie, whatever.23. What is the presentation mainly about?24. What used to restct the use of electric vehicles?25.

E. excellent词。除去空格处的词义外，句意为：他们可以成为传授其个人传统和历史的老师。用某个形容词来修饰teachers，备选的形容词中，只有excellent“优秀的”符合句意，故为答案。备选的形容词中，aware“意识到的”、expensive“昂贵的”、involved“有关的”和uptodate“最新的”均不可修饰teachers，故均排除。38. L. origin词。country of origin为固定搭配，意思是“起源国，原产国”，这里指的是移民的本土国，故0rigin“起源”为答案。备选的名词中，guidelines意为“指导方针”，显然不符合句意，故排除。39. N. up-to-dateo为形容词。该句句意为：当地企业的员工或是社区机构人员都有着一信息可以在课堂中分享。根据常识判断，和上文中提到的家长相比，企业的员工和社区机构人员能够给孩子们带来更前沿的信息，而up-t0date“最新的”恰好符合句意，故为答案。备选的形容词中，aware“意识到的”、expensive“昂贵的”和involved“有关的”均不符合句意，故均排除。40. B. attend为动词原形。此处意思是很多学生没有机会去参加音乐会，故attend“参加”为答案。备选的动词原形observe意为“观察”，不符合句意，故排除。41. G. guidelines故该空格处应为名词。上文中提到了实地考察给学生们带来的好处。再根据整句句意一个学区应该有选择和实施实地考察的。故guidelines“指导方针”为答案。42. C. awareo主动语态，此处应是be0f，故推测空格处为形容词。固定搭配be aware of意为“知道，有一定认识”，符合句意，故答案为aware“意识到的”。43. H. involved填入一个形容词。根据句中后面部分的ranging from planting trees to cleaning up a park可知这些都是社区活动。固定搭配be involved in意为“参与”，符合句意，故答案为involved“有关的”。备选的形容词expensive“昂贵的”不符合句意，故排除。44. D. especially填入副词。分析旬意可知，students显然是一个大的范围，而older ones则为其中一个部分，因此是在具体举例或是特殊强调，只有especially“尤其”能够起到这样的作用，由此确定答案。备选副词naturally“自然地”不符合句意，故排除。45.volunteering词的现在分词形式。该句前半部分为学校要求学生提供社区服务，而后半部分具体列举在养老院、幼儿托管所或是政府机构，根据常识判断，学生在这几个地方提供的一般都是志愿者服务，因此volunteerin9“自愿(做某事)”，符合句意，故为答案。备选的动名词中，joinin9意为“加入”，但是join in意思是“加入，参加”，不符合句意，故排除。收获冒险带来的回报A.自从史蒂夫乔布斯辞去苹果公司的首席执行官职务，他无与伦比的商业领袖的身份为人称道，他为股东创造了巨大的财富，并且引导设计了变革整个音乐和移动通讯行业的拳头产品。B.这一切都是真的，但是，让我们换一种想法，借用一下苹果公司多年前的营销口号。让我们把乔布斯先生视为一住行为榜样。C.首先，他是一个创新者。他的创造力在诸如iPod，iPhone和iPad这样的产品中可见一斑，以及在对音乐和在线手机软件进行定价和推销的新商业模式中得以体现。对于创新的研究会得出相同的结论：你无法策划创新，但是你可以增加它发生的可能性。而乔布斯先生的事业可以被视为对增加这种可能性的不断追求，不仅是为了他自己，同时也是为了他所领导的公司。当然，乔布斯先生也非常享受这种非凡的成功。(51)但是创新，广泛地定义为所有经济进步的关键要素给国家带来更快的发展，让公司拥有更多有竞争力的产品，给个人带来更兴旺的事业。很多专家说，乔布斯先生为我们展示了在创新游戏中是什么在起作用。D.一位为企业和政府提供创新咨询的顾问约翰高说：“我们可以从史蒂夫乔布斯那里看到并学习到美国创新的本质是什么。”(49)他指出，目前很多其他国家在生产创新的原材料方面领先于美国。这些包括政府对于科研方面的资金支持、国家对于新兴产业的政策扶持、教育上的成果、工程师和科学家的培养，甚至还有互联网宽带服务的网速。E.(52)但是，高先生补充说，其他国家明显缺少的是一种鼓励多样性、实验、冒险和把多种不同领域的技能融入到产品之中的他称之为“打碎重组”的社会环境。正如iPhone，重新定义了智能手机的范畴。他说：“其他国家的文化并不会像美国那样支持乔布斯所示范的创新。”F.如今所有行业的工作人员都被告知广泛的好奇心和不断的学习对振兴现代经济至关重要。(54)职业顾问说，正规教育很重要，但是真实的生活经历通常甚至更有价值。G.乔布斯先生是一个被领养的孩子，在硅谷长大，他很早便表现出了那些品质。他小时候就对电子产品着迷，建立Heathldt自己动手项目，比如收音机。他仅仅上了一个学期的课便从瑞德学院辍学，从此便游历印度寻找灵感，之后才回到硅谷和他的朋友史蒂芬沃兹涅克，一个工程界的奇才，共同创办了苹果公司。乔布斯在1985年被迫离开了苹果公司，之后创办了另外两家公司Next和Pixar，他在1996年再次回到苹果公司，并于1997年成为了首席执行官。H.他的道路是不同寻常的，但是创新专家说这种探索模式是正常的。(53)欧洲企业管理研究院的一名教授赫尔葛瑞格森说：“通常正是像乔布斯这样可以从多种经历中有所借鉴的人才能经常产生突破性的想法和见解。”I.葛瑞格森先生是创新者的DNA)这本新书的合著者。这本书是基于对全球5，000位创业者和高管们长达八年的研究写成的。该书的另两位合著者为杨百翰大学的教授杰夫代尔和哈佛商学院的教授克莱顿克里斯坦森，后者l997年出版的书创新者的困境普及了“颠覆性创新”的概念。J.学术界发现了颠覆性创新者的五个共同特点：质疑、实验、观察、联想和建立关系网。这些特点的总与其他专家所提到的不断的好奇心和勇于冒险相呼应。赫尔葛瑞格森解释说，这里的建立关系网，并不是构建事业关系，而是对于新想法的不断探求。(50)他补充说，联想指的是通过将不同学科的概念联系到一起：从而丝盛能够产生新想法的关联的能力。K.葛瑞格森先生说：“创新者会定期参与这种脑力活动，这是他们的一种习惯。”据书的作者说，创新型公司确实会在股票市场中获得更高的估价，他们称之为“创新溢价”。它是通过对公司股价的估算，而不是通过对其现有的产品或是资金流来计算的。创新溢价试图量化投资者因公司的创新而赌公司将来会更好的预期。L.通过他们的计算，苹果公司在乔布斯先生掌管的第一阶段有37的创新溢价。(55)他离开的时间里发生了31的创新折价。在他曰归之后，苹果公司的财富在一开始逐渐增长，从2005年开始显著地增长，从那时起便达到了52的创新溢价。M)这并没有真凭实据，但赫尔葛瑞格森说，乔布斯先生如果没有离开苹果公司之后的经历，(48)尤其是在制作了一系列重要的、成功的商业电影如玩具总动员和飞屋环游记的Par动画制作工作室的那段时间，那么他在苹果公司的第二阶段内就不可能彻底改造这个产业.N.乔布斯先生在2005年斯坦福大学的毕业典礼上说过大致相同的话=(47)他告诉学生：“事实证明被苹果公司辞退是我遇到的最好的事情了：”他也提到了坚持和意志力：他说：“有时候生活会给你当头一棒。不要失去信念。”O.(46)乔布斯先生通过对创新的呼吁结束了典礼致辞，倡导大家在择业和生活上都要创新：他对学生们说，要有好奇心、敢于实践和冒险。他引用了全球目录最终版的封底上的文字“求知若饥，虚心若愚”对这些建议进行了强调。他补充道：“我经常希望自己是这样，而现在，鉴于你们已经毕业了，要重新开始，我希望你们也是这样。”46. Steve Jobs called on Stanford graduates to innovateinhiscommencement address.O. Mr. Jobs ended his commencement talk with a call to innovation, both in ones choice of work and in ones life. Be curious,experiment,take risks,he said to the students. His advice was emphasized by the words on the back of the final edition of The Who/e Earth Catalog, which he quoted: Stay hungry. Stay foolish. And, Mr. Jobs said, I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you. 47. Steve Jobs considered himself lucky to have been fired once by Apple.N. Mr.Jobssuggestedmuchthesamethingduringa commencement address to the graduating class at StanfordUniversity in 2005.It turned out that getting fired fromApple was the best thing that could have ever happened tome, he told the students.Mr.Jobs also spokeofperseverance (坚持 . and will power.Sometimes life hitsyou in the head with a brick, he said. Dont lose faith. 48. Steve Jobs once used computers to make movies that were commercial hits.M. There is no conclusive proof, but Mr. Hal Gregersen says it is unlikely that Mr. Jobs could have reshaped industries beyond computing, as he has done in his second term at Apple,without theexperienceoutside thecompany, especially at Pixar-the computer-animation ( 动画制作 )studio that created a string of critically and commerciallysuccessful movies, such as Toy Story and Up. 49. Many governmentshavedonemore than the US government inproviding the raw materials forinnovation.D. We can look at and learn from Steve Jobs what the essence ofAmerican innovation is,John Kao,an innovation consultant to corporations and governments.Many othernations, Mr. John Kao notes, are now ahead of the United States in producwhat are considered the raw materials ofinnovation. These include government financing for scientific research, national policies to support emerging industries, educational achevement, engineers and scientists graduated, even the speeds of Interuet broadband service.50. Great innovatorsare goodat connecting concepts from various academic fields.J. The academics identify five traits that are common to thedisruptive innovators: questioning, experimenting, observing,associating and networking.Their bundle of characteristics echoes the ceaseless curiosity and willingness to take risks noted by other experts.Networking,Mr.Hal Gregersenexplains, is less about career-building relationships than a consistent search for new ideas. Associating, he adds, is the ability to make idea-producing connections cncepts from different disciplines.51. Innovation is vital todriving economicprogress.C. Above all, he is an innovator (创新者 ). His creative force is seen inproducts such as the iPod, iPhone, and iPad, and in new business modelsfor pricing and distributing music and mobile software online. Studies ofinnovation come to the same conclusion: you cant engineer innovation, butyou can increase the odds of it occtwring. And Mr. Jobs career can beviewed as a consistent pursuit of improving those odds, both for himself and the companies he ha
