5、道这一新的文章体裁,这也就意味着出题人更增强调学生把考场作文和真实生活中的写作联系在一起,对于学生观察生活的水平提出了更高的要求一一注意到新闻的格式和内容安排的特点.一方面,新闻报道需要写出标题和落款,标题注意简洁明了,落款既要写出人名还要根据新闻报道的格式写出bysb.,最后还要写出所在的新闻机构.另一方面,在内容上,分三段进行写作,第一段写导语,点明事件的根本情况时间、地点、事件、人物、目的或意义;第二段写经过一般根据时间顺序进行书写,同时可以对其中一个小事进行特写,中间还可以穿插人物采访;第三段写对这一事件,人物的看法、想法和观点.在体裁上虽然不同于以往四级命题的规律,但是万变不离其宗的

6、是仍然把学生对英语语言水平的运用水平作为考查重点.综观近五年的四级写作命题趋势,无论是要说明理由、解释原因、说明影响,第一段的功能始终都是引入,这跟新闻报道的第一段写导语是一致的,所以考生可以结合以往作文的行文思路作为切入点书写新闻报道.第二段是浓墨重彩的一段,而新闻报道与普通作文的区别是更侧重事实,所以要求考生在书写的时候只需要客观写出事情的起因、经过、结果即可.第三段无论是以往的作文还是新闻报道,都需要给出总结对事件的看法和观点,在新闻报道的结尾段作出对事件的评价和写出所的感悟就可以了.今年考查的话题是养老院、农场和当地小学,与考生的生活比拟贴近,在写作时,列举的例子应较为典型,这样阅卷老

7、师很容明白考生文中所描述的内容.同时,考生对这个例子也应很熟悉,能够熟练运用一些有关的词或短语,这样下笔时才会有话可说,从而将相关的背景知识与正确的语言表达有效地结合起来.这些话题与大学生的生活息息相关.这些话题对于考生而言都会有话可说,并且能够提出一定的看法和观点.Part 2 ListeningComprehension25minutes本次四级听力难度适中,就听力文本的主题而言,难度略有下降.由于今年这套听力的内容和大学生生活较为贴近,主题以校园,生活类为主,没有难度较大的政治,经济,科技,科普之类的主题,因而,对听力较好的同学而言,应该会感受到比往年题目听到的生词少.但题目设置上的难度

8、并没有降低没有题目,红色字体为猜想出题点.由于目前还没有试卷选项,单就原文和出题位置来看,出题位置符合“头尾重点“逻辑处等考点,考生在应试时假设把握好这这些内容,应能较快反响出对应的答案.SectionANewsreport1此篇新闻是关于一个从旧金山游到Alktrask岛屿的9岁男孩,首发于2021年1月美联社的报道.这属于社会新闻,是新闻中听懂难度较低的一种.但这篇新闻存在较多地点专有名词,可能会对考生在听力中造成影响.1 .新闻主旨题.重点听开头前两句.2.新闻细节题.A9-year-oldcentralCaliforniaboybravedstrongcurrentsandcoldwa

49、置,词性应该为动词的被动态.本篇文章对A300持有肯定态度,所以此句想表达“A300'对环境没有任何潜在的害处,故答案应为«MT,"bestrippedof意为“剥夺.28. 此题空格前有“will,所以此处应填动词原形.选项中动词原形有“A和"H',根据句意得知,漂浮的飞机可以让人工珊瑚长的更好.所以此题答案为“A",create"创造,产生.29. 此处应填动词原形,主语为“plane,故谓语动词应为单三形式.所以答案是“L",stretches意为“延伸,此处指“飞机机身总长为54米.30. 此处应填副词,用来修

50、饰后面的"beabletoventure",答案应锁定在"Ceventually和“L"intentionally.这句话的意思是水肺式潜水者能够在船舱内冒险.应选项"Ceventually“最终地,更符合句意.31. 此处应填名词形式,由于空格前为“plane's.名词选项有“F和"N'.空格处前半句是时候水肺式潜水者能够在船舱内冒险,所以后半句应该为他们也可以在船舱外面冒险.故答案为“F"exterior"外部,外表.32. 由于空格前为“onthat.所以此处应为名词.本句话的大意是：买这架飞

51、机花了很多钱,所以他们希望通过旅游业能够看到自己投资的回报.所以答案为“J"investment“投资.33. 此处应填名词形式.空格后的内容为“严重的致命恐怖袭击,所以空格处应为victim“受害者.故答案为“O'.34. 此处应为副词形式.由于副词修饰形容词"largest.副词只剩“I"intentionally有目的性地,成心地,修后面sunk,所以此题答案为“I.35. 此题应为形式,与and前的"takingatripunderwater保持并歹U."E"exploring和"K'revealin

52、g都是形式.根据本句句意,"E"exploring“探索更符合句意.本句话的意思是“水下旅行和探索漂浮的A300的内部都会是一场冒险.SectionBDirections:Inthissection,youaregoingtoreadapassagewithtenstatementsattachedtoit.Eachstatementcontainsinformationgiveninoneoftheparagraphs.Identifytheparagraphfromwhichtheinformationisderived.Youmaychooseaparagraphmo
