选词填空
第一篇For manyAmericans, ended with an unusually bitter cold snap. LateNovember and December saw early snow and bone-chilling temperaturesin much of the country, part of a year when—for the first time intwo decades—record-cold days will likely turn out to haveoutnumbered record-warm ones. But the U.S. was the exception:November was the warmest ever globally, and the provisional dataindicates that 2013 is likely to have been the fourth-hottest yearon record.
Enjoy thesnow now, because chances are good that will be evenhotter—perhaps the hottest year since records have been kept.That’s because,scientists are predicting, 2014 will be an El Niño year.
El Niño,Spanish for “the child”, occurs when surface ocean waters in thesouthern Pacific become abnormally warm. So large is the Pacific,covering 30% of the planet’s surface, that the specific energygenerated by its warming is enough to touch off a series of weatherchanges around the world. El Niño are associated with abnormallydry conditions in the Southeast Asia and Australia. They can leadto extreme rain in parts of North and South America, even assouthern Africa experiences dry weather. Marine life may beaffected too: El Niño the rising of the cold, nutrient-rich waterthat supports large fish populations, and the unusually warm oceantemperatures can destroy coral.
参考答案
36. N. saw 第一空显然缺少谓语，优先考虑动词，结合语义并根据Late November andDecember可以推出应选择过去式动词，故答案锁定saw.
37. F. decades 根据two，首选复数名词，结合语义，“for the first time in the two decades”,二十年来头一次。
38. H.globally 句子为主系表结构，不缺主要成分，所以首选副词和形容词，根据语义，ever表示“一直以来地、向来地”，“十一月向来是全球范围内最温暖的一个月。”
39. D.chances 缺少主语，并且谓语是are，所以首选复数形式的名词，结合前文Enjoythe snow now, “享受现在的雪吧”，因为“时机是好的”。
40. J.occurs 空格前方有主语，且是单数形式，而后面由when引导的时间状语从句的时态是一般现在时，所以主句谓语锁定第三人称单数形式的动词，只能选择occurs.
41. A.specific空格左为定冠词the，空格右为名词，中间只能选形容词，选择“特定的”符合语义。
42. B. associated 空格左为be动词，右边为介词with，中间只能是形容词或动词的过去分词形式，beassociated with表示“与…有联系”，符合原意。
43. G.experiences 空格左为主语southern Africa，空格内应该为动词的第三人称单词形式，结合语义，选G，“南非经历着干燥的天气。
44. M.reduce 空格左为情态动词，空格内必须为动词原形，填reduce“减少”符合原题。
45. K. populations 空格与左边的large fish 共同构成动词support的宾语，只能选一个名词来作为名词词组，故选K，“大量的鱼群”。

第一篇
Everybody sleeps—so goes theSesame Street song meant for obstinately awakechildren. That may be true, but what people stay up late tocatch—or wake up early in order not to miss—varies byculture.
Around the world, people changed sleep patterns thanks to the startor end of daylight savings time. Russians, for example, began towake up about a half-hour later each day after President VladimirPutin shifted the country permanently to “winter time”starting on October 26.
Russia’s other latenights and early mornings generally coincided with public holidays.One such spike was on New Year’s Eve, which Russians tend to ringin with unusual fervor, as well as on World War II Victory Day.According to another Jawbonefinding,Russians have the world"s latest bedtime on December 31, hittingthe hay at around 3:30 a.m.
Russians also got upan hour later on International Women’s Day, the day for coddlingand celebrating female relatives.
Similarly, Americans’late nights, late mornings, and longest sleeps coincided withthree-day weekends.
Canada got the leastsleep of the year the night it beat Sweden in the Olympic hockeyfinal.
The World Cup wasalso a major sleep-deprivation culprit. The worst night for sleepin the U.K. was the night of the England-Italy match on June 14.Brits stayed up a half-hour later to watch it, and then they wokeup earlier than usual the next morning thanks to summer nights, thephenomenon in which the sun barely sets in northern countries inthe summertime. That was nothing, though, compared to Germans,Italians, and the French, who stayed up around an hour and a halflater on various days throughout the summer to watch theCup.
It should be made clear that not everyone has a device to record their sleep patterns; in some of these nations, it’s likely that only the richest people do. And people who elect to track their sleep may try to get more sleep than the average person. Even if that’s the case, though, the above findings are still striking. If the most healthconscious among us have such deep swings in our shuteye levels throughout the year, how much sleep are the rest of us losing?
参考答案及解析
61题，定位到第一段最后一句“varies byculture”，所以答案选A——They areculture-related.
62题，由题干的大写名词Russian定位到第二段和第三段。第二段的“Russian, for example, began towake up about a half-hour later each day”这一句是干扰句，起得晚不一定睡得早，所以答案推不出“他们比其他地方的人睡得更久”。然后看到第三段“Russia’sother late nights and early mornings generally coincided withpublic holidays”，所以答案为C——They don’t sleep much onholidays。
63题，题干问的是欧洲人缺乏睡眠的major cause主要原因是什么，由题干的"大写名词Europeans’loss定位到倒数第二段的“comparedto Germans, Italians, and the French, who stayed up around an hourand a half later on various days throughout the summer to watch theCup”，原文的Germans, Italians, and theFrench就是题干中“Europeans”的同义改写，而他们stayed up就是为了to watch theCup，所以说他们缺乏睡眠的原因便是C选项——The World Cup。
64题，问的是富有的人使用设备来记录他们的睡眠模式的原因。由rich people以及device定位到最后一段第一句，定位句只说到了记录的事实，而非其原因。按照四级阅读金三句原则看到定位句的下一句“And people who elect to track their sleep may try to get more sleep than the average person”，记录睡眠的人是想要得到比普通人更多的睡眠，所以答案是B——Theywant to get sufficient sleep.
65题，问的是作者在最后一段所表达的观点，定位到最后一句If the most healthconscious among us have such deep swings in our shuteye levels throughout the year, how much sleep are the rest of us losing? 作者提到了health-conscious，人们对健康的意识是缺乏的，对健康是视而不见的，所以答案选B——Fewpeople really know the importance of sleep.

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.
破题思路:
第一段: 解释引言内容. 提出文章的主旨: “学习的重要性”
第二段: 分析原因 此处可以结合例子.
第三段: 得出结论
参考范文:
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 my own way in such a competitive society.
The effect of learning can be boiled down to two major ones. First, with the spirit of learning, we are more capable of overcoming the difficulties in the future. More importantly, we can enrich our spare time life by learning. No matter who you are, you must remember that learning is the basic skill in our life.

【范文】
As autumn winds blow, leaves fall. Havingseparated from a tree, leaves decompose into theearth and eventually return to a tree"s originalroots. Hence the saying: “fallen leaves are destinedto return to the root.”
The picture above depicts the motion of leaves towards the root, which in turn can beinterpreted as the intense bond Chinese feel towards their motherland.
More and more overseas Chinese are returning or have already returned to China. Despitethe length of time they have spent abroad, or regardless of the life they may have lead, theyare often disposed to return to their roots, to come home. It is commonly said that blood isthicker than water. Because they are grateful for their homeland"s nourishment and support,they return to contribute to the construction of their country with the knowledge, experienceand wealth acquired abroad. This inclination is an expression of people"s attachment to, andlove of, their homeland. Patriotism is a prevailing emotion among the overseas Chinese. TheChinese still living in China should also cherish and love their country, and give back with theirknowledge and actions in order to cultivate the country"s present and future.

1) describe the picture,
2) interpret its meaning, and
3) point out its implications in our life.
【范文】
This simple picture represents a situation that every person must face: when approaching ajunction, which direction should one choose?
Most viewers can empathize with the sense of hesitation and uncertainty embodied insuch an image. Without exception, everyone has to make choices in life, whether they concernschool, career, or love. While some choices are simple, one cannot avoid the task of makingdifficult decisions.
Choices are often directly related to one"s happiness. University students,for example, facea hard and crucial decision upon graduating. Many students have difficulty deciding whether tocontinue studying or begin developing a career. Every individual is different, and one must takethe factors of one"s personal life into consideration. In addition to an awareness of specificcircumstances, however, making the right choice also depends on correct appraisal of oneself.
In order to choose correctly, therefore, one must be both realistic and self aware.Furthermore, once having made a decision, one should seriously accept and pursue the pathone has chosen, and strive towards the realization of one"s goal with spirit.

1) describing the set of drawings below,
2) stating its main idea, and
3) giving your comment.
【范文】
The images above are both meaningful and instructive: this man"s hard work is not only forhis own benefit, but also for the benefit of future generations.
The pictures serve to remind us that the existence of our current happiness and valuablenational heritage is due to the struggles of our predecessors.
We, in turn, should also work hard in order to guarantee the comfort and safety ofgenerations to come. Sustainable development has become a topic of heated debate in recentyears. While it is justifiable to satisfy current demands, we cannot neglect the needs of ourdescendants in the process. Our children also depend on Earth"s natural resources and weshould not deprive them of such necessities.
Unfortunately, many people only think of their short?term, personal interests. An entireforest might be clear?cut, in the interest of making a profit, without a single tree planted in itsplace. This inconsiderate attitude towards the welfare of our descendants, as well theindifference to the outcome of such reckless actions, can only turn Earth into a cold andlifeless planet. People must be taught to appreciate Earth as not only their home, but also thehome of our children and grandchildren, as well as all other plants and animals.
While making great efforts to increase our current quality of life, we must simultaneouslyconsider how our actions will affect future lives.
四、英语四级作文范文：大学生就业。
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30minutes to write a composition on the topic Jobsfor Graduates. You should write at least 120 wordsand base your composition on the outline below:
大学生难找工作，原因很多，解决的办法。
【范文】
Job hunting has always been a headache forcollege students. Though many graduates areemployed right after graduation, some are not. Mostserious of all, some still have no idea where to go working even a long time after graduation.
The reasons for this phenomenon are various. On the one hand, a few years ago collegesand universities enrolled so many students in popular majors, such as economy, finance andso on that the number of graduates was greater than the need in the market. On the otherhand, most graduates would rather stay in large cities without suitable job to do than go tothe country.
I reckon this problem can be solved if both colleges and students take measures. First, theyshould research the market and develop special skills to suit its need. Second, students’attitude towards employment should be changed. They should go to small cities and country.There they can also give full play to their professional knowledge. In a word, if we pay muchattention, the situation can be improved.
五、英语四级作文范文：互联网。

互联网使用的现状，大学生是否应该使用互联网，人们的看法不同，我的看法。
【范文】
In recent years, people are developing aninseparable relationship with Internet. As is known toall, it is convenient for us to click the mouse whensurfing on line, either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work’s needs.
On the one hand, no one denies that Internet is currently one of the most useful media inour daily life. As a college student, I get on line every day to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends. But on the other hand, a good many people admit that they are toomuch addicted to Internet to maintain a regular and wholesome lifestyle.
Thus, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain fromoverindulgence. After all，Internet is invented to enrich our life, and to improve the efficiencyof our work rather than shackle us with a chain.
六、英语四级图表作文范文：蜜蜂的启示
Directions:Study the following drawing carefullyand write an essay in which you should
1) describe the drawing,
2) interpret its meaning, and
3) support your view with examples.
【范文】
Groups of bees work together to produce honey. Their great efforts are not selfish,however, as the amount of honey they produce is for an entire group rather than a singleindividual.
The drawing above suggests that people should selflessly dedicate themselvesto theircommunity as a whole. This spirit of dedication requires faith. Selfless hard work is anembodiment of responsibility and strength.
The health of nations requires a spirit of devotion. Chinese teachers, doctors and athleteswho all work for the benefit of their country, for example, aredevoting themselves regardless offame or fortune. They are dedicated to the society they live within. No matter what type ofjob one holds, one should work hard and in earnest to improve one"s community.
The results of dedication, however, depend not only on one"s willingness to give but alsoon one"s ability. If you are enthusiastic about devoting yourself to your country, but do nothave the skills it takes to do so, you cannot effect much change. The more competent, one is,the greater one"s contribution. Therefore, it is essential that students focus on their studiesand enhance their skills in order to properly give back to society.

Changes in the way of transportation
As the internet is developing so rapidly, the way of transportation keeps changing surprisingly. New applications on transportation emerge abundantly, contributing to the fact that people_ s lifestyle has been changed as well.
The changes in the way of transportation can be listed as follows. First of all, with the development of technology, the price of transportation is much cheaper than before. Moreover, compared with traditional ways of buying tickets, transportation applications and websites give passengers the opportunity to book tickets online without going outside to particular ticket offices. Besides, highspeed railways gradually replace the oldfashioned green trains, which can tremendously improve travelers’ comfort during the journey and shorten the time spent on the way.
From my perspective, the changes in the way of transportation mainly lie in the good respects. As one of the fortunate passengers who live in the age of internet and can get access to online service of transportation, I can_ t help exclaiming: it is the best of times.

12月大学英语四级阅读解析
月19日全国大学英语四级/六级考试已结束，以下是年12月英语四级阅读真题解析(新东方在线(微博)版)：
2015年12月四级考试如期进行，从笔者拿到的套题的阅读部分来看，整体难度适中，较往年趋于平稳。
选词填空部分(关于《children’s cognitive abilities儿童认知能力》)
首先从选项设计上看，四大词性(名、动、形、副)考查数量分布均匀(3233)，不确定形式(Ving 和 Ved)共4个，另外只有advocate一个词属于一词多性的情况，相对选项设计总体难度属于中等偏易。
再看文章部分，谈论的是关于儿童认知(children’s cognitive abilities)方面的知识的话题，属于小冷门，但文章语言表达适中，且短句占主体，平衡了话题生僻对考试带来的解题障碍。其中cognitive还给出了中文注解，也正好应验了在新东方在线课程中反复强调的中文重要性的应试知识要点。同时，空格设置处的词性相对比较容易判断，例如，名词前给出了单复数的区别的代词those作为提示，又例如，非谓语动词只考查了一个正在进行时，而做后置定语或状语的高难度应用本篇没有涉及。
段落匹配部分(The Perfect Essay)
首先看备选的十个小标题，均无长难句，同时出现大量重复信息，例如除了与文章title 本身密切相关的essay ，flaw，flawless，perfection以外，还有mother，criticism，从而能顺利预测出文章谈及的是通过母亲的有建设性的批评，提升作者的写作能力，
这也是在新东方在线课程当中要求的先题后文解决段落匹配的技巧。
从长文章的.段落设计上看，一共11段(K)，属于段落数量适中的情况，也为匹配选择降低难度。但对于所谓长阅读文章只看开头结尾的谬论，用真题再次给予回击，十道匹配中至少3题涉及段落中间部分，2题涉及对全段进行总结。
仔细阅读部分
保持一贯的难易结合(即一篇相对简单，另一篇略有难度)，第一篇文章(Silicon Valley)相对容易，文章讨论为何在其他地方无法复制硅谷(Silicon Valley)成功的原因。
纵观后面的五道问题，定位点非常清楚，前四题均有明确的大写(1、Silicon Valley2、Miami 3、Carnegie-Mellon MIT 4、Boston)同时根据出题顺序与行文顺序一致的原则，不难确定第5题对应最后一段。
第二篇文章谈论争论或不同意见对决策的帮助(debate，identify your blind spots，get to the truth)，相比上篇文章，五道问题虽然没有包含大写单词，并出现信息重复的现象(debate)但也定位信息相对容易识别，都具有特殊性的特点如 like-minded people， leaders 。并且在选项中出现了十考九对的may。
