2023年12月四级英语考试真题与答案解析作文（一）周思远题目：For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Learning is a daily experience and a lifelong mission。” You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of lifelong learning。 You should write at least 120 words， no more than 180 words。参考范文：Currently in this constantly changing world， learning becomes a seemingly convenient but actually more complex matter。 As an old saying goes，” Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission”。 Apparently， the meaning of this saying is that if we truly desire to learn something， we are supposed to devote our life to it。There are several reasons accounting for this viewpoint。 For one thing， learning itself is an actually complicated and painful matter， and as a result，  it is advisable for us to commit much more time even our whole life to it。 For another， it is exceedingly obvious that we are easy to forget what we learned， and accordingly， the significance of lifetime learning cannot be ignored。 For example， memorizing vocabulary is commonly the first step of preparing for an English test。  However， it is pretty difficult for us to put a huge number of new words in our mind。 Therefore， we can divide these words into some groups and spend some hours each day on it in order to remember and understand these words。To sum up， lifelong learning lays a solid foundation to the development of ourselves， and only when we realize the significance of lifetime learning can we understand the essence  of learning。作文（二）任伟伟 题目：For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Never go out there to see what happens， go out there to make something happen。” You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of being creative rather than the mere onlookers in life。 You should write at least 120 words， no more than 180 words。参考范文：As a famous saying goes， “Never go out there to see what happens， go out there to make something    happen。”  Simple as the saying is， its meaning is profound and thought-provoking， which is meant to    tell us that we are supposed to be creative instead of acting as the onlooker。Conspicuous are the impacts of being creative and I would like to explore the following aspects。                To begin with， it is to leading a team to make constant progress what water is to fish， which can be  best illustrated by an example concerning an extraordinary basketball player， Yao Ming。 Moreover， this kind of innovation also makes it possible for a nation to promote its international status and improve the comprehensive competitiveness。 From my perspective， keeping creative is so essential that adequate importance must be attached to it。 Only when we literally realize the key role it plays can we become better selves in the foreseeable future。作文（三）曹林权-球球题目：For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting   on the saying “Listening is more important than talking。” You can cite examples  to illustrate the importance of listening。 You should write at least 120 words， no more than  180 words。参考范文：As the most talented creature in this planet，we human beings are in possession of two kinds of most powerful capabilities， which are listening and talking。 Compared with talking， more often than not， the significance of listening is way ahead in our life。The most typical example of the importance of talking lies in the exchange among family members。 When we are accustomed to talking without listening， in the process of which we might only focus on ourselves， feeling of others are ignored and even hurt。 Without listening，  the essential passport towards mutual understanding， the relation among our family members may bit by bit go alienated 。Besides ， listening can also promote the efficiency of teamwork and efficiency is of the utmost consequence in such a fast-tempo society。Talking is a window through which we convey ourselves ， while listening is a door via which we understand each other 。  A life without mutual listening is just like a house without a door。 Careful listening ， so at least it seems to me ， is a necessity but not a luxury in our daily life as well as in our work 。听力（周祖筠，易哲）答案：BACDB ADDBC ACBDC BADBD CABBA选项：选项：1。A。 They admire the courage of space explorers。B。 They enjoyed the movie on space exploration。C。 They

see？ There are other heavenly bodies out there besides the moon and stars。 One of the most fascinating of this is a comet。 Comets were formed around the same time the earth was formed。 They are made up of ice and other frozen liquids and gasses。 Now and then these dirty snowballs begin to orbit the sun just as the planets do。 As a comet gets closer to the sun， some gasses in it begin to unfreeze。 They combine with dust particles from the comet to form a huge cloud。 As the comet gets even nearer to the sun and solar wind blows the cloud behind the comet thus forming its tail。 The tail and generally fuzzy atmosphere around the comet are characteristics that can help identify this phenomenon in the night sky。 In any given year， about dozen known comets come close to the sun in their orbits。 The average person cant see them all of course。 Usually there is only one or two a year bright enough to be seen with the naked eye。 Comet Hale-Bopp discovered in 1995 was an unusually bright comet。 Its orbit bought relatively to the earth within 122 million miles of it。 But Hale-Bopp came a long way on its earthly visit。 It wont be back for another 4 thousand years or so。听力具体解析：2023年12月四级听力解析长沙新东方学校：周祖竣 易哲Part 2 Listening ComprehensionSection A Conversations听力原文：1。 M： Do you remember the wonderful film on space exploration we watched together last month？W： Sure。 Its actually the most impressive one Ive seen on that topic。Q： What do we learn about the speakers？解析：男人问女人是否还记得上个月一起看的一部关于太空探险的影片，女人的回答是肯定的，并且还认为这是她看过的关于太空冒险题材影片中最令她印象深刻的。技巧点拨：短对话反复原则的出题形式，第一句话是一般疑问句，第二句话对第一个的提问做肯定的回答，那么答案和第一句话有关，这种题老师说过不能用视听反向排除听到的内容，由于film on space exploration在第二话中又反复到了，并用it代词指代，所以此题的答案就是第一句话中的这部太空探险电影是关键，批准替换把film替换成了答案中的movie。题目与答案：1。A。 They admire the courage of space explorers。B。 They enjoyed the movie on space exploration。C。 They were going to watch a wonderful movie。D。 They like doing scientific exploration very much。听力原文：2。 W： Are you looking for anything in particular？M： Yes。 My son is graduating from high school and I want to get him something special。Q： Where does the conversation most probably take place？解析：此题是一道地点推断题，审题时一看选项就知道考察地点推断。女人问男人：你是在找一些特别的东西吗？原文的时态是现在进行时。男人说他儿子立即就要高中毕业了，想给他找个特别的东西（当中礼物）。也就是说那人正在挑礼物。技巧点拨：此题还是要运用反复原则，女人提出问题，男人说yes，很明显是肯定回答，当我们听到肯定回答时，第一句话也需要理解，再加上男人第二句话的展开说明就能推断地点位置了！题目与答案2。A。 At a gift shop。B。 At a graduation ceremony。C。 In the office of a travel agency。D。 In a school library。听力原文：3。 M： Mike told me yesterday that hed been looking in vain for a job in the art gallery。W： Really？ If I remember right， he had a chance to work there but he turned it down。Q： What does the woman say about Mike？解析：男人说Mike告诉他在美术馆找工作没找到，女人回答用的是really？很明显是质疑和不认同男人的话，补充道：假如我没记错，他原本有机会去那里工作的，但是他拒绝了这分工作！技巧点拨：这道题出现了先否认在转折的情况，考试在听题时要注意，really？和but这两个表达同时出现时其实是表达递进，女人并不是只想否认男人的话，而是还是对他的话进行展开说明，两句话的内容都需捕获到的重点表达是a job in the art gallery，第二句虽然没有这个表达，但是work there（指代的不就是art gallery这个地点吗？）和turned it down（中的代词it不就是指job吗？）运用反复原则，答案词的确是第一句话中的job offer from the art gallery！题目与解析：3。A。 He used to work in the art gallery。B。 He does not have a good memory。C。 He declined a job offer form the art gallery。D。 He is not interested in any part-time jobs。听力原文：4。 W： Would you like to come to Susans birthday party tomorrow evening？M： Im going to give a lecture tomorrow。 I wish I could be in two places at the same time。Q： What does the man mean？解析：女人直接提问：你明天会来参与Susan的生日趴吗？男人给出的回答虽然不是直接否认不去，但是他说的是：我明天要去讲课，我希望我能同时出现在两个地方。言下之意就是分身乏术，只能去讲课，不能去party。技巧点拨：此题用清楚原则即可，只要听到第一句是直接提问，第二句没给建议没有转折，没有否认的时候，理解听到的回答即可，并且这个题的回答听起来也是非常清楚好理解的。题目与答案：4。A。 Susan has been invited to give a lecture tomorrow。B。 He will go to the birthday party after the lecture。C。 The woman should have informed him earlier。D。 He will be unable to attend the birthday party。听力原文：5。 W： Arent you discouraged by the slow progress your staff is making？M： Yes。 I think Ill give them a deadline and hold them to it。Q： What is the man probably going to do？解析：女人问男人是否对员工们做的项目这么慢感到气馁，男人的回答是yes，给出了肯定的回答并且还补充道：我想我应当给他们一个时限并且使他们坚持下去。技巧点拨：本题听到yes这个关键词的时候应当知道男人对女人问题的态度，明显肯定，就是说男人的确对这个项目非常的失望沮丧，但是这道题的选项中并没有这个答案，所以下一句男人给出的解决方案成了考点，解决方案就是会设立一个期限，还是要坚持做完这个项目。题目与答案：5。A。 Reward those having made good progress。B。 Set a deadline for the staff to meet。C。 Assign more workers to the project。D。 Encourage the staff to work in small groups。听力原文：6。 W： Excuse me， could you tell me where the visitors parking is？ I left my car there。M： Sure。 Its in Lot C， over that way。Q： What does the woman want to know？解析：女人问：能告诉我访客停车场在哪里吗？我要去停车。男人说：当然，访客停车场在C区，就在那里。技巧点拨：同样还是反复原则，第一句话很重要就是答案出处。老师上课的时候强调过并不是所有的答案都在第二句中，大部分情况下也许第一句就有答案，要学会听关键词。女人用一般疑问句问：你能告诉我停车场在哪里吗？男人说sure，就是能告诉她停车场怎么走。题目与答案：6。A。 The way to the visitors parking。B。 The rate for parking in Lot C。C。 How far away the parking lot is。                         D。 Where she can leave her car。听力原文：7。 W： You look great now that youve taken those fitness classes。M： Thanks。 Ive never thought better in my life。Q： What does the man mean？解析：女人说男人上课这些健身课之后看起来棒极了，男人也说自己再好但是了。技巧点拨：此题假如在考场上没有听懂，事实上可以按照视听反向原则把听到的都排除就能出答案，A听到了classes ，B听到了fitness classes，C听到了better life。但是有些考生还是不明白什么时候才可以这么用。事实上考生只要知道fitness classes和exercise是批准替换，就可以用视听反向，视听反向的前提就是四个选项中一定要出现批准替换才干用而听到的是fitness classes不能选，只能选它的同替换。fitness classes健身课程就等于exercise锻炼。题目与答案：7。A。 He regrets missing the classes。B。 He plans to take the fitness classes。C。 He is looking forward to a better life。D。 He has benefited form exercise。听力原文：8。 W： I really admire the efficiency of your secretaries。M： Our company selects only the best。 They have a heavy workload and we give them a lot of responsibilities。Q： What are the speakers talking about？解析：这道题的关键是secretaries，反复的在原文中
