Blameless

I was a freshman in college when I met the Whites.They were completely different from my own family，yet I felt at home with them immediately.Jane White and I became friends at school，and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin.

衫宴燃In my family，it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened.

“Who did this?”my mother would scream about a dirty kitchen.

“This is all your fault，Katharine，”my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke.

From the time we were little，my sister，brothers and I told on each other.We set a place for blame at the dinner table.

But the Whites didn’t worry about who had done what.They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives.The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.

In July，the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York.The two older sisters，Sarah and Jane，were college students，and the youngest，Amy，had recently turned sixteen.Proud of having a new driver’s license(驾照)，Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip.She showed off her license to everyone she met.

或虚The big sisters shared the driving of Sarah’s new car ring the first part of the trip，but when they reached less crowded areas，they let Amy take over.

Somewhere in South Carolina，we pulled off the highway to eat.After lunch，

Amy got behind the wheel.She came to a crossroads with a stop sign.Whether she was nervous or just didn’t see the sign no one would ever know，but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping.The driver of a large truck，unable to stop in time，ran into our car.

Jane was killed immediately.

I was slightly injured.The most difficult thing that I’祥友ve ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died.Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend，I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.

When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital，they found their two daughters sharirng a room.Sarah had a few cuts on the head;Amy’s leg was broken.They hugged(拥抱)us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters.They wiped away the girls’ tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches(拐杖).

To both of their daughters，and especially to Amy，over and over they simply said， “We’re so glad that you’re alive.”

I was astonished.No blame.No accusations.

Later，I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.

Mrs.White said，“Jane’s gone，and we miss her terribly.Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back.But Amy has her whole life ahead of her.How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister’s death?”

They were right.Amy graated from the University of California and got married several years ago.She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students.

She’s also a mother of two little girls of her own，the oldest named Jane.

There are two factors which determine an indivial's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an indivial will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the indivial—the sort of environment in which he is reared. If an indivial is handicapped envionmentally ,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.

The importance of environment in determining an indivial's intellingence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark X. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old , their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was reated by parents of low intelligence in an isolatedcommunity with poor ecational pooprtunities.Mark was reared inthe home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child , sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This enviromental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were giben tesets to measure their intelligence. Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities , the twins , having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.

1.This selection can best be titled_________.
a.Measuring Your Intelligence
b.Intelligence and Environment
c.The Case of Peter and Mark
d.How the brain Influences Intelligence

2.The beststatement of the main idea of this passage is that _____.
a.human brains differ considerably
b.the brain a person is born with is improtant in determining his intelligence
c.environment is crucial in determining a person's intelligence
d. persons having identical brains will have roughly the same intelligence

3.According to the passage , the average I.Q.is _____.
a.85
b.100
c.110
d.125

4.The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that _______.
a.indivial with identical brains seldom test at same level
b.an indivial's intelligence is determined only by his enviroment
c.lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligence
d.changes of enviroment proce changes in the structure of the brain

5.This passage suggests that an indivial 's I.Q.______.
a.can be predicted at birth
b.stays the same throuthout his life
c.can be increased by ecation
d.is determined by his childhood
答案：bcbcc

Sixty-five million people held jobs and only a little more than two million wanted jobs but could not find them . Only agriculture complained that it was not sharing in the room. To some observers this was an ominous echo of the mid-1920’s . As farmer’s shre of their procts declined , marketing costs rose. But there were , among the observers of the national economy, a few who were not as confident as the majority . Those few seemed to fear that the boom could not last and would eventually lead to the oppsite-depression.

1. What is the best title of the passage?
a. The Agriculatural Trends of 1950’s
b. The Unemployment Rate of 1950’s

下面是我早搏整理的腔伏，希望对大家伍睁携有帮助。

When one looks back upon the fifteen hundred years that are the life span of the English language, he should be able to notice a number of significant truths. The history of our language has always been a history of constant change—at times a slow, almost imperceptible change, at other times a violent collision between two languages. Our language has always been a living growing organi *** , it has never been static. Another significant truth that emerges from such a study is that language at all times has been the possession not of one class or group but of many. 『At one extreme it has been the property of the mon, ignorant folk, who have used it in the daily business of their living, much as they have used their animals or the kitchen pots and pans.』① At the other extreme it has been the treasure of those who have respected it as an instrument and a sign of civilization, and who have struggled by writing it down to give it some permanence, order, dignity, and if possible, a little beauty.

As we consider our changing language, we should note here two developments that are of special and immediate importance to us. One is that since the time of the Anglo-Saxons there has been an almost plete reversal of the different devices for showing the relationship of words in a sentence. Anglo-Saxon ***old English*** was a language of many inflections. Modern English has few inflections. We must now depend largely on word order and function words to convey the meanings that the older language did by means of changes in the forms of words. Function words, you should understand, are words such as prepositions, conjunctions, and a few others that are used primarily to show relationships among other words. A few inflections, however, have survived. And when some word inflections e into conflict with word order, there may be trouble for the users of the language, as we shall see later when we turn our attention to such maters as WHO or WHOM and ME or I. The second fact we must consider is that as language itself changes, our attitudes toward language forms change also. 『The eighteenth century, for example, proced from various sources a tendency to fix the language into patterns not always set in and grew, until at the present time there is a strong tendency to restudy and re-evaluate language practices in terms of the ways in which people speak and write.』②

1.In contrast to the earlier linguists, modern linguists tend to .

A. attempt to continue the standardization of the language

B. evaluate language practices in terms of current speech rather than standards or proper patterns

C. be more concerned about the improvement of the language than its *** ysis or history

D. be more aware of the rules of the language usage

2.Choose the appropriate meaning for the word “inflection” used in line 4 of paragraph 2.

A. Changes in the forms of words.

B. Changes in sentence structures.

C. Changes in spelling rules.

D. Words that have similar meanings.

3.Which of the following statements is not mentioned in the passage? A. It is generally believed that the year 1500 can be set as the beginning of the modern English language.

B. Some other languages had great influence on the English language at some stages of its development.

C. The English language has been and still in a state of relatively constant change.

D. Many classes or groups have contributed to the development of the English language.

4. The author of these paragraphs is probably a***an*** .

A. historian B. philosopher C. anthropologist D. linguist

5.Which of the following can be best used as the title of the passage? A. The history of the English language.

B. Our changing attitude towards the English language.

C. Our changing language.

D. Some characteristics of modern English.

Vocabulary

1. span n. 跨度，范围，一段时间，期间

2. imperceptible adj. 感觉不到的，觉察不到的，极细微的

3. organi *** n. 生物体，有机体

4. possession n. 拥有，占有，领土，领地

5. ignorant adj. 无知的 6. folk n. 人们，民族

8. Anglo-Saxons n. 盎格鲁—撒克逊语，盎格鲁—撒克逊人，地道的 英国人

9. reversal n. 颠倒，反向，逆转 10. inflection n. 词尾变化

11. preposition n. 前置词，介词

12. conjunction n. 联合，关联，连线词

13. in terms of 根据，按照，用……的话，在……方面

长难句解析

①【解析】“who”引导非限制性定语从句，修饰“the mon, ignorant folk”。“much as”引导状语从句。“kitchen pots and pans”意为“锅碗瓢盆”。【译文】一方面它是那些普通人甚至无知民众的财产，他们每天都像使唤他们的牲畜和锅碗瓢盆一样用着语言。

②【解析】 此句为一个复合倒装句。“until”引导一个并列句，前一句的主语是“a tendency”，“to fix the language into patterns not always set in and grew”作“tendency”的定语，第二句的主语也是“a tendency”，

“to”后面的句子作“tendency”的定语，“in which”引导的定语从句修饰“ways”。 【译文】例如在18世纪一种产生于各种来源的趋势把语言固定在一个不常使用和不利于语言发展的模式中，而到了当今，主流是要反复研究、评价人们说话、写作中的语言实践。

答案与详解

【短文大意】本文主要讲述英语演变过程的一些特点，指出了古英语与现代英语的不同，以及语言学家对待语言形式的态度的变化。

1.B细节题。根据题干回原文中定位，阅读文章时注意首末段及各段开头的句子，这往往都是考点所在。这篇文章讲的主要是英语语言演变的一些特点，指出了古英语与现代英语的不同，以及语言学家态度的转变。本题问的正是现代语言学家与早期语言学家不同的倾向。根据文章末尾The eighteenth century, for example, proced from various sources a tendency to fix the language into patterns not always set in and grew, until at the present time there is a strong tendency to restudy and re-evaluate language practices in terms of the ways in which people speak and write. 现代语言学家倾向于根据人们说和写的方式评价语言实践，而不是像早期的语言学家根据一定的模式评价语言。选项B符合文章的意思。

2.A词汇题。要根据上下文的资讯判断单词的意思。文章在第二段中间再次提到inflection时说，A few inflections, however, have survived. 后面文章又举了WHO/WHOM和ME/I为例说明inflection，这是一篇关于语言学的文章，从例子可以看出inflection的意思应该是“单词的变形”，选项A正确。

3.A细节题。根据文章的内容，选项A“普遍认为1500年是现代英语的起点”在文章中没有提及，故为正确答案。文章第二句说The history of our language has always been a history of constant change - at times a slow, almost imperceptible change, at other times a violent collision between two languages. 我们语言的历史是一个不断变化的历史——在一些时间里缓慢得几乎难以察觉，在另一些时间里则是两种语言的激烈碰撞。由此可以推断一些其他的语言对英语的发展有重大影响，选项B符合文章的意思。

4.D词汇题。此题考查考生的推测能力和词汇量，文章讲述的是英国语言演进的具体细节，最适当的答案应该是D。作者很可能是一位语言学家。A答案***历史学家***和C答案***人类学家***也可以有点迷惑性。B答案***哲学家***是最不符合的。

5.C主旨题。本文从各个方面谈及英语作为一种语言的发展变化，但并不是讲述英语的历史。所以选项A不对，选项C作为文章的题目最为贴切。选项B只是文章阐述的一个方面，不够全面。文章是在谈到英语的不断变化的时候谈到了现代英语的一些特点，所以选项D也失之于片面。

Culture is one of the most challenging elements of the international marketplace. 『This system of learned behavior patterns characteristic of the members of a given society is constantly shaped by a set of dynamic variables: language, religion, values and attitudes, manners and customs, aesthetics, technology, ecation, and social institutions.』① To cope with this system, an international manager needs both factual and interpretive knowledge of culture. To some extent, the factual knowledge can be learned; its interpretation es only through experience.

The most plicated problems in dealing with the cultural environment stem from the fact that one cannot learn culture—one has to live it. Two schools of thought exist in the business world on how to deal with cultural diversity. One is that business is business the world around, following the model of Pepsi and McDonald’s. In some cases, globalization is a fact of life; however, cultural differences are still far from converging.

The other school proposes that panies must tailor business approaches to indivial cultures. Setting up policies and proceres in each country has been pared to an organ transplant; the critical question centers around acceptance or rejection. The major challenge to the international manager is to make sure that rejection is not a result of cultural myopia or even blindness.

Fortune examined the international performance of a dozen large panies that earn 20 percent or more of their revenue overseas. The internationally successful panies all share an important quality: patience. They have not rushed into situations but rather built their operations carefully by following the most basic business principles. These principles are to know your adversary, know your audience, and know your customer.

1. According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. All international managers can learn culture.

B. Business diversity is not necessary.

C. Views differ on how to treat culture in business world.

D. Most people do not know foreign culture well.

2. According to the author, the model of Pepsi .

A. is in line with the theories of the school advocating the business is business the world around

B. is different from the model of McDonald’s

C. shows the reverse of globalization

D. has converged cultural differences

3. The two schools of thought .

A. both propose that panies should tailor business approaches to indivial cultures

B. both advocate that different policies be set up in different countries C. admit the existence of cultural diversity in business world

D. Both A and B

4. This article is supposed to be most useful for those .

A. who are interested in researching the topic of cultural diversity

B. who have connections to more than one type of culture

C. who want to travel abroad

D. who want to run business on International Scale

5. According to Fortune, successful international panies .

A. earn 20 percent or more of their revenue overseas

B. all have the quality of patience

C. will follow the overseas local cultures

D. adopt the policy of internationalization

1. dynamic adj. 动态的 2. variable n. 变数

aesthetics n. 美学 4. factual adj. 事实的

5. interpretative adj. 解释的 6. converge v. 聚合

7. transplant v. 移植8. myopia n. 近视 9. adversary n. 对手

长难句解析

①【解析】此句虽然很长，但考生只要认清它的主干，就很容易了解本句的意思。这个句子为一个简单句，主语为：“this system”，谓语为“is shaped”。

答案与详解

【短文大意】本文主要讲述文化背景对商业运作的影响，文中列举了商界中存在的对于文化多样性的两种观点。

C推断题。意为“对在商业中怎样对待文化有着不同意见”。 文化在商业中是一个很具挑战性的因素。不同的国家与地区可能会有不同的文化体系。在商业中，应该怎样对待不同的文化，商业界存在着不同的看法。

2. A细节题。意为“……与同意世界商业一体化的派别的主张是一致的”。 Pepsi采纳的是国际化的商业风格，这与那些主张国际化的派别的意见是相一致的。

3. C推断题。意为“承认商业世界中文化的多元性”。两个派别都承认商业世界中文化的多元性。他们的不同在于，应该对待不同的文化，应该搞国际化还是对不同的文化采取不同的策略。

4. D主旨题。由文中的例子可以知道，作者主要关心的并不是研究多种文化形态，而是文化背景对商业运作的影响。所以D是正确答案。

5. B细节题。意为“都具有耐心这一素质”。并非所有成功的国际公司的海外收入都占总收入的20%或以上。它们也不一定全都接纳海外的当地文化，或是采纳国际化策略。

2017年12月大学英语四级阅读理解试题及答案（4）

If the population of the earth goes on increasing at its present rate, there will eventually not be enough resources left to sustain life on the planet. By the middle of the 21st century, if present trends continue, we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars, for example. Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race, the crowded conditions on earth will make it necessary for lus to look for open space somewhere else. But none of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present. One possible solution to the problem, however, has recently been suggested by American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan.

Sagan believes that before the earth'毕衡s resources are compleetely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmophere of Venus and so create a new world almost as large as earth itself. The difficult is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there.

Sagan proposes that algae organisms that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time proce oxygen, should be bred in condition similar to those on Venus. As soon as this has been done, the algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceship will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere. In a fairly short time, the alge will break down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon.

手山做When the algae have done theri work, the atmosphere will become cooler, but befor man can set foot on Venus it will be neccessary for the oxygen to proce rain. The surface of the planet will still be too hot for man to land on it but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like earth will be reproced on Venus.

1. Inte long run, the most insoluble problem caused by population growth on earth will probably be the lack of ________.

a. food

b. oil

c. space

d. resources

2. Carl Sagan believes that Venus might be colonized from earth because ________

a. it might be possible to change its atmosphere

b. its atmosphere is the same as the earth's

c. there is a good supply of water on Venus

d. the days on Venus are long enough

3. On Venus there is a lot of ________.

a. water

b. carbon dioxide

c. carbon monoxide

d. oxygen

4. Algae are plants that can ________.

a. live in very hot temperatures

b. live in very cold temperatures

c. manufacture oxygen

d. all of the above

5. Man can land on Venus only when ________.

a. the algae have done their work

b. the atmosphere becomes cooler

c. thereis oxygen

d. it rains there
