4.Hello, new students! This is a message from the Students Union Committee. We've been at the university for at least a year now, so we can give you some good tips. Don't worry - we remember being new and making a lot of mistakes! And we haven't forgotten feeling a little bit scared. First, as you know, there are no longer any grants. If you borrow money from the government, remember that like all loans, you have to pay it back. Spending all your money in the first week is not a sensible strategy. Try to make a budget for each term and stick to it. But if you are struggling to make ends meet, you can get a part-time job-restaurants and bars in the town take lots of students on in the evenings and at weekends. Come and see us for advice. Stop worrying about making new friends. Start to join the sports and hobbies societies - they're cheap and you can begin meeting a lot of people that way. It's a great chance to take up a completely new hobby. Living in a new city a long way from home can be very stressful. One tip, don't forget your parents. After all, they are paying your tuition fees here. You will be very busy working and enjoying yourself, but stop to phone your parents sometimes and don't forget to go home for the weekend from time to time. And remember to take your dirty washing! Finally, remember to work hard and play hard. Go on working steadily towards your first degree (BA or BSc) throughout your three years here - try to keep things in perspective. You'll always find someone in the Student Union office if you need to talk.1). What does the word "scared" mean in the second paragraph?2). What does the word "grants" mean in the third paragraph?3). The sentence "But if you are struggling to make ends meet, ?at weekends" in the third paragraph implies().4). From the fifth paragraph, we can infer that in order to overcome the stress of living faraway from home, ().5). This passage is written for the purpose of ().(1).A、excitedB、frightenedC、worried(2).A、money given by the government to support the students' study, which they needn't pay backB、money from the government which the students need to pay backC、money from the school which is similar to scholarship(3).A、if you are short of money, you can find a part-time job in the restaurants and bars in your spare timeB、if you want to have a better life than others, you can find a part-time job in your spare timeC、restaurants and bars need more hands in the evenings and at weekends(4).A、it's better for new students to talk to their parents over the phone from time to timeB、new students need to do their washing themselvesC、new students should keep themselves as busy as possible so that they will not miss home(5).A、telling new students the problems facing them in the universityB、telling new students how to budget their moneyC、offering new students some advice about their university life

    In China,more and more middle school students are getting shorter sleeping time than be-fore. Most students sleep less than nine hours every night,because they have much homework to do. Some homework is given by their teachers,and some by their parents. Also,some students don't know how to save time .They are not careful enough while they do their homework,so it takes them a Iot of time. Some students spend too much time watching TV or playing computer games.They stay up very late. Some students have to get up early every morning on weekdays to get to school on time by bus or by bike.lt can be a long way from home to school.

    Schools and parents should cut down some of the homework so that our children can enjoy more than nine hours of sleep every night for their health. For children,we should make best use of our time. When we have enough time for sleeping,we will find it much better for both our study and health.

  • 第7题:

    请阅读短文,完成此题。
    What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
    Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.
    If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in apart-time job. Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

  • 第9题:

    As recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise and?dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or a?credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what?they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.
    Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a?way of life in the United States.More and more Americans now are depending on those small pieces?of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant?dinner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have?credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental?company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return?the car and pay for using it.
    Credit cards offer two major services to Americans.First of all,they are easier and safer to?carry than large amounts of money.Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediate?pleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With?credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of?what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between 5 and 10 percent of what they owe.

    What advantage can credit card holders have?

    A.They can choose not to pay for their purchases.
    B.They can easily borrow money at a lower interest.
    C.They can own something before they actually pay for it.
    D.They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.

    答案:C
    解析:
    【考情点拨】事实细节题。
    【应试指导】由文章第三段第三句“they permit people to borrow…for it at the time”可知,即使目前不能支付得起,人们仍然可以提前拥有某样东西,故选C。

    问答题
    In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully, and then complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.  Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.  Everyone knows about pollution in the environment. Water, air, and land are all polluted. This means that pollution is everywhere. Now, scientists are looking inside our bodies to find out about internal pollution.  In 2003, the Environmental Working Group studied nine people to measure the chemicals in their bodies. These nine people had an average of 53 cancer-causing chemicals in their bodies. They also had an average of 62 chemicals that can damage the brain, and 55 that can harm babies in pregnant women. Even though a lot of chemicals were found in human bodies, the chemicals were found in small amounts. The amounts were small enough that they were probably not hurting the people. However, scientists are worried because most of these chemicals were created by humans. Most of these chemicals did not exist 75 years ago. This proves that we have not only polluted the world—we have polluted our own bodies!  How does this pollution get into our bodies? We come into contact with many chemicals every day. For example, everyone uses soap, skin lotion, and shampoo. However, few people know that these products contain harmful chemicals, some of which may cause memory loss. Chemicals known as DEA (diethanolamine) and TEA (triethanolamine) may seep into the skin and stop us from absorbing a helpful nutrient called “choline”. Choline is a nutrient that plays a crucial role in the memory cell making process in the developing brain. Some people worry that every time we wash our hair, we are decreasing our memories.  Everyone knows they should brush their teeth regularly, but recent research has shown that some toothpastes can cause cancer. Fluoride is a key ingredient in many toothpastes. However, studies show that fluoride does not really protect our teeth. In fact, fluoride has been connected with bone cancer and other diseases. While we are trying to save our smiles, we could be damaging our health.  Women are probably exposed to more chemicals than men because they use more beauty products. Recently, harmful chemicals have been found in nail polish, hair spray, deodorant, and perfume. The chemicals are called “phthalates”. Studies on animals have shown that phthalates can damage the liver, the kidneys, and the lungs. Cosmetic companies say the amounts of phthalates in their products are safe, but consumer protection groups disagree. They say some women use so many products that the levels are actually high. So, the more women try to look beautiful, the more they could be harming their health.  In a futuristic story by Ray Bradbury, a man found a pristine stream on a new planet. When he drank from the stream, he died! Why? His body was so polluted that pure water was a poison to him! Perhaps that is only science fiction, but it reminds us to take care of our bodies. We must find ways to reduce the pollution we absorb.  Summary:  Like our polluted environment, our bodies are no longer pollution-free. Scientists now know that there is pollution in our bodies. On  1 , we have 53 cancer-causing chemicals in our bodies. Even fluoride  2 with bone cancer and other diseases. Some common cosmetics contain small amounts of chemicals, which seep into our  3 when we use these products. They prevent us from absorbing the  4 our bodies need. So, it is  5 that we find ways to reduce the amount of chemicals in our bodies. We should remind our friends and families to take care of their bodies.

    正确答案:
    1.average 第二段中提到:2003年,环境工作组对九个人做了调查研究,其结果显示他们有an average of 53 cancer - causing chemicals in their bodies,这九个人代表了我们普通人群。
    2.has been connected / is connected 第四段倒数第二句明确提到In fact, fluoride has been connected with bone cancer and other diseases。
    3.skin 第三段以香皂、润肤露和洗发水等普通化妆品为例讲述了它们中含有的DEA和TEA “may seep into the skin…”,且由常识可知,化妆品直接与皮肤接触,使用过程中很容易渗透进皮肤,因此答案为skin。
    4.nutrients 第三段提到日用护肤品中含有的DEA和TEA may seep into the skin and stop us from absorbing a helpful nutrient called “choline”,由此类推,可知普通化妆品的使用会妨碍我们的身体吸收其所需要的营养物。nutrient营养物,滋养品。
    5.crucial 本文详细论述了化学物质会对我们的身体造成巨大的伤害,最后一句又提到我们必须想办法减少体内吸收的污染物,由此可知寻找减少我们体内的化学物质的方法是至关重要的。另外,答案还可以是important,essential等意义相近的词。

    The world is not only hungry,it is also thirsty for water. this may seem strange to you,since nearly 75% of the earth is covered with water. But about 97% of this water is sea water.Man can only drink and use the other 3% fresh water that comes from rivers,lakes,under-ground and other places. And we cannot even use all of that,because some of this fresh water has been made dirty.

    At the moment,this small amount(数量) of fresh water is still enough for us. However,our need for water is getting greater and greater. Only if we take steps to solve this problem now,we can get away from a serious world water shortage later on. The people of the world cannot have an enjoyable life without enough clean water.

    On one hand we should stop wasting this little water of ours,on the other hand we should find ways to reuse it,but this has not been done widely.

    Today,in most large cities,water is used only once and it then returns to the sea or runs into underground places.lf we can make it clean again,it can be used once more just as if it were fresh from a spring.

    But even if large cities reuse its water,we still would not have enough in the future. Where.could we turn to next for water? To the ocean! How can we do to make use of this great a-mount of sea water? We can take the salt from the water to make it fresh.

    So if we take all these steps,we'll be in no danger of drying up!

    ( )26. Why does the writer say that the world is thirsty for water?

    长时间没认真接触过英语作文,知道有很多低级错误,因为要的比较急,所以还望各位不吝赐教,帮忙修改一下。。。不胜感激。。。


    improve our language 后面加上ability吧

    second改为secondly

    Nowadays , more and more students go to foreign countries to study . many people are spare no effort in applying for going abroad .

    现在,越来越多的学生去国外去深造。其中就有很多人不遗余力地申请到国外去留学。

    About this phenomenon , different people have different points . some people agree with it . first of all , studying abroad is the best way to improve our language . if we want to break away from “ mute English ” , it’s a good method to help you . second , by studying abroad we can better to know foreign countries’ culture . going in a country and we can experience different culture’s charm . last but not least , it’s a good opportunity to travel , make friends with different people and broaden your horizon .

    关于这一现象,不同的人有不同的分。有些人同意这样的说法。首先,出国留学是最好的方法,以改善我们的语言。如果我们想摆脱“哑巴英语”,这是一个很好的方法来帮助你。第二,通过学习国外可以让我们更了解外国的文化。要在一个国家,我们还能体验不同的文化的魅力。最后,但并非最不重要的是,这是一个很好的机会去旅行,广交朋友,与不同的人,开阔你的眼界。

    But others disagree with it . in the first few months these students will have a language barrier and hard to go in their society . many students can’t make a good programme when their parents aren’t with them , some of them spend their abroad’ time in vain .

    但是其他人不同意它。在最初几个月这些学生将有语言障碍,并努力去。许多学生在他们的社会做不出好节目的时候,他们的父母没有和他们在一起,他们中的一些人花费他们的国外的时间是徒劳的。

    As long as I’m concerned , if we have a chance to study abroad ,we should treasure make full use of it . it will make us be wiser . because of the study’s experience , I believe that our life will also be more beautiful and wonderful .

    只要我关心的,如果我们有机会去国外学习,我们都应该珍惜充分利用它。它将使我们变得更聪明。因为该研究的经验,我相信,我们的生活也将更加美妙。

    1.many people are spare no effort in applying for going abroad .
    spare 应该改成 sparing ,一般进行时。

    2.About this phenomenon , different people have different points .
    这句话总觉得有点不太顺。
    point 改成 standpoint 或许更佳。或者直接把这个句子改成:Standpoints vary from person to person. 感觉更舒服些。

    3.second , by studying abroad we can better to know foreign countries’ culture .
    better不是个动词,所以不能接在情态动词后。应改成we can know foreign countries’ culture better.

    4.going in a country and we can experience different culture’s charm .
    好像一般不会说go in a country, 可以说成 go to a country.

    5.in the first few months these students will have a language barrier and hard to go in their society .
    hard前面要加上be,will be hard to do sth.
    另外,go in society 也好别扭,step into the society或join the society应该更舒服。

    6.many students can’t make a good programme when their parents aren’t with them .
    一般没make a programme这种说法,楼主或许是想表达制定计划吧。那应该用schedule。

    7.As long as I’m concerned
    没这种说法,应该说成As far as I’m concerned。

    8.we should treasure make full use of it
    这句话把两个动词谓语叠在一起了,可以分开说成we should treasure it and make full use of it。

    9. it will make us be wiser
    应该去掉be. 说成make us wiser.

    比较明显的错误应该就是这些。

    在整体上,我建议楼主在写四级作文的时候可以多用些从句,以及对一些词汇进行适当的润色。比如说最后一句的because of,可以说成owing to或者 as a consequence of之类的。agree with 可以说成 in favor of。

    总之,这些需要靠平时的积累和练习。总之,希望楼主的英语作文能够取得长足的进步!如果有什么需要追问的话,很高兴能与你交流!

    请阅读短文,完成此题。
    What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
    Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.
    If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in apart-time job. Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

    The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably__________.

  • 第21题:

    The water we drink and use is running short in the world.We all have to learn how to stop wasting our limited water.One of the steps we should take is to find ways of reusing it.Experiments have already been done in this field.
    Today in most large cities,fresh water is used only once,then it runs into waste system.But it is possible to pipe the used water to a purifying factory.There it can be filtered and treated with chemicals so that it can be used again,just as it were fresh from a spring.
    But even if every large city purified and reused its water,we still would not have enough.Then we could turn to the oceans.All we’d have to do to make use of the seawater on earth is to get rid of the salt.This process is called desalinization,and it is already in use in many parts of the world.
    The way to stop wasting our limited water is to________.

    A.do experiments with water
    B.purify the used water and reuse it
    C.use fresh water once again
    D.make use of seawater
