英语四级听力新题型模拟听写训练:第1套-短篇新闻(1) Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item. Recently, a photo showing a visitor on the Great Wall last week aroused a heated discussion on the Internet. They called it the "great queue of China". It was, with the famous structure snaking to the horizon behind him completely hidden by a mass of other tourists. The vast imperial palace, the Forbidden City, at one point welcomed more than 180,000 visitors in a single day. In the desert at Dunhuang, at least two camels transporting tourists reportedly died from overwork in the Golden Week. And Chinese media said road traffic was up by thirteen percent on last year, causing unprecedented jams. 英语四级听力新题型模拟听写训练(第1套) 短篇新闻(2) Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item. These days, German government has been criticized for not doing enough to commemorate the 100th anniversary of World War I. Germany has spent less on events than some other European countries. And the events which have taken place have been seen as half-hearted by critics. Traditionally in Germany the First World War is overshadowed by the Second World War. History teaching in German schools tends to focus on the crimes of the Nazis rather than what happened a generation earlier. And since 1945 there's been a strong aversion in Germany to anything that might be seen as glorifying militarism. So many people here are uncomfortable with any anniversary of a war or a battle. There's still some disagreement among historians about who was responsible for World War I. But having spent the last 70 years making up for Nazi guilt, many Germans have little appetite to now take on the blame for the First World War, too. Question 3.What makes the German government be criticized recently? Question 4.What's the attitude of German people towards militarism? 问题3和问题4是基于下面这则新闻的。 近日，德国政府被谴责的原因是因为第一次世界大战100周年的活动做得不够充分。 相比欧洲其他各国，德国对此纪念活动不够重视。 其举行的纪念活动更被民众指责敷衍了事。 在德国，第二次世界大战比第一次世界大战更受重视。 德国的的历史教学也更加侧重纳粹所犯罪行，而并非发生在上一代人身上的悲剧。 1945年以来，德国民众强烈反对任何可能被视为美化军国主义的行为。 因此，每当有任何战争或战役纪念日时，德国民众心中多有不快。 历史学家在“谁该对第一次世界大战负责”的问题上仍然存在分歧。 过去的70年里，德国一直在弥补纳粹所犯下的罪行, 因此，多数德国人认为德国也不应该为第一次世界大战担责。 问题3.德国政府因何倍受指责？ 问题4.德国民众对军国Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.

When Albert was five years old, his father gave him a compass. The child was filled with wonder when he discovered that the compass needle always pointed in the same direction—to be north. He asked his father and his uncle what caused the needle to move. Their answers about magnetism and gravity were difficult for the boy to understand. Yet he spent a lot of time thinking about them. He said later that he felt something hidden had to be behind things.

The last reading will be read at normal speed again and during this time you should check your work. You will then be given 2 minute 1． 正确答案：Time Management Time is something from which we can’t escape. Even if we ignore it, it’s still going by, ticking away, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. So the main issue in using your time well is, “Who’s in charge?”We can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. Or we can take control of it and make it our ally. By taking control of how you spend your time, you’ll increase your chances of becoming a more successful student. Perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time you’ll have to spend on your outside interests. The aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs every waking moment of the day. Instead, the aim is to make informed choices as to how we use our time. 涉及知识点：听写 2． 正确答案：Charity Shops The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won’t find in the shops anymore.

Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than ￡110 million a year, funding medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. 涉及知识点：听写 3． 正确答案：Passive Learning We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively.

News report one White neat, such as chicken may raise blood cholesterol levels as much as red meat does. This finding surprised researchers who admitted they didn't expect that eating white meat would lead to higher blood cholesterol levels.(Q1) In the study, researchers looked at 113 healthy people. The participants ate 3 different diets. These were a red meat which is primarily beef, a white meat diet which is, mostly chicken and turkey, and a vegetarian protein diet. Each diet period was 4 weeks between the diet periods. Participants had a break during which they ate their regular foods. In addition, participants had blood tests at the start and finish of each new diet. The results showed that white and red meat diets had the same effects on blood cholesterol levels. Further, both diets increased blood cholesterol levels compared with the diet built on vegetarian protein sources. The team acknowledged that it is possible that white meat is better for our health than red meat.(Q2) Despite their findings, this is because other effects of red meat consumption could contribute to heart disease, independent of cholesterol. Their main recommendations are that people eat less of both kinds of meat and more vegetarian protein. What do we learn from the news report about the study? What did the researchers acknowledge?
