2010年6月英语四级深度阅读答案(文都版)

　一、选词填空：

　　47 G （incredibly）

　　48 K （ replace）

　　49 J （reduced）

　　50 L （sense）

　　51 H （powering）

　　52 D （exceptions）

　　53E

　　54 O （vast）

　　55 F（historic）

　　56I （protect）

　　二、篇章理解

　　Passage one

　　57 D It is an indispensable device on an airplane

　　58 D Data for analyzing the cause of the crash

　　59 D The early models often got damaged in the crash

　　60 B To make them easily identifiable

　　61 A There is still a good chance of their being recovered

　　点评：这是篇可怕的文章，因为它谈论到一个充满着神秘色彩的device，黑匣子。从考生的反馈，这五道题后四道的难度一般，倒是57题迷惑性较大，主要体现在C选项（Its ability to ward off disaster is incredible）。

　　57 What does the author say about the black box?

　　A: It ensures the normal functioning of an airplane.

　　B: The idea for its design comes from a comic book.

　　C: Its ability to ward off disaster is incredible.

　　D: It is an indispensable device on an airplane.

　　带着大家回原文第一段看看

　　You never see them, but they’re with you every time you fly. They record where you’re going, how fast you’re traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. They’re known as the black box.

　　57题误选C的同学主要是对ward off 这个短语理解不到位。

　　提示：按照朗文词典P1733的解释ward off = prevent, keep away something bad 。请注意，是“prevent防止”。文章中很明确地提到，黑匣子只能“record记录”，“withstand经受住”disaster，根本就没提到“防止”。

　　不选D选项的同学还有一个可能就是对indispensable理解不到位，误以为是“独立”的意思。其实indispensable是“必不可少”的意思。

　　二、篇章理解

　　Passage two

　　62. B It is based on the concept of positive thinking

　　63. A Encouraging positive thinking may do more harm than good

　　64. C You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent

　　65. B Forcing a person to think positive thoughts may lower their self-esteem

　　66. C Meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapy

　　点评：这是一篇不那么积极的文章，从文章中感觉到一些无奈。从难度的角度分析，除了64题以外，另外四题难度适中。现在我们来分析分析这个让我们不那么爽的64题。

　　64 What does the author mean by “… you’re just underlining his faults”(Line 4, Para.3)?

　　A: You are not taking his mistakes seriously enough.

　　B: You are pointing out the errors he has committed.

　　C: You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent.

　　D: You are trying to make him feel better about his faults.

　　这道题有不少考生选择了B，可惜了。

　　解题思路如下：

　　按照解题方法，根据题干找回原文。

　　The study’s authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaithey Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by citing older research showing that when people get feedback which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your dim friend that he has the potential of an Einstein, you’re just underlining his faults.

　　本题关键是理解两个考点单词“underline”与“dim”，underline = emphasize强调，dim有笨的意思，也就是“not intelligent”。

　　所以选C You are emphasizing the fact that he is not intelligent.

　　三、快速阅读

　　提醒考生，因为存在AB卷，所以不同的试卷答案顺序不一样，请考生重点看选项的具体内容。

　　1.A Her daughters’ repeated complaints

　　2.D People haven’t yet reached agreement on its definition

　　3.C can realize what is important in life

　　4.A it seriously affected family relationships

　　5.C depressed

　　6B His family had intervened(干涉)

　　7.B curb his desire for online gaming

　　填空题部分，注意单词形式（主要是语法的问题）。

　　8. had an Internet Addiction 提醒考生，写成has则错误，因为这里是指过去的事情。

　　9. for professional help 提醒考生，由于seek既可作为及物动词，又可作为不及物动词，所以for可用，也可不用。

　　10. online dating
