新视野大学英语4选词填空答案及翻译

一

Have you ever known anyone famous? If so, you may have found that they are remarkably similar to the rest of us . You may have even heard them object to people saying th ere is anything different about them.

“I’m really just a normal guy,”protests an actor wh o has recently

rocketed into the spotlight. There is, of course, usua lly a brief period when they actually start to believe the y are as great as their worshipping fans suggest. They sta rt to wear fancy clothes and talk as if everyone should hear what they have to say. This period, however, does n ot often last long. They fall back to reality as fast as they had originally risen above it all. What will it feel like to soar to such altitude and look down lik e an eagle from up high on everyone else? And what will it feel like to have flown so high only to wake from yo ur dream and realize you

are only human? Some only see the cruelty in losing someth ing they had gained. They often make desperate attempts to regain what they lost. Often these efforts result in e ven greater pain. Some become bankrupt financially and e motionally. The only real winners are those who are happy to be back on the ground with the rest of us.

你了解名人吗？如果是这样，你可能发现他们与我们身边其余的人非常地相似。甚至,你可能已经听到他们反对的人说有什么不同。“我真的只是一个普通人,”一个最近已经飙升到了聚光灯下的演员抗议说。当然,通常是一个短暂的时期,他们真正开始相信他们正如崇拜他们粉丝建议的那样伟大。。他们开始穿漂亮的衣服，交谈着就好像认为每个人都应该听到他说什么。然而，这段时期不会持续很长时间。他们正如他们原来上升的速度回到现实，什么使他感觉高飞到一定高度然后像一只鹰一样向下看高于其他人？什么使你像鹰一样飞那么高的美梦里醒来然后意识到你仅仅是个人类。一些人仅仅看到残忍地失去他们曾获得的东西。他们往往急切的试图夺回他们所失去的。通常这些努力导致了更大的疼痛。一些人在经济上和情感上倾家荡产。唯一的真正的赢家是快乐的回到陆地上与其余的人一样的人。

In the past several years, many new stories about corpo rate greed have come to surface.The illegal practices of some executives have negatively impacted our economy. What m akes this worse is that these executives seem to have th e consent of some political leaders. Some of the e xecutives even bribe lawmakers. Recently a member of congres s from California was caught demanding gifts from intere st group in exchange for supporting new laws.A few top lea ders in the government are under investigation for illegal activities. This doesn’t even scratch the surface of th e problem. A few years back a company made many purposeful

accounting errors to fool investors. Many believe tha t one reason the problem became so big was that our na tion’s top leaders shielded the company. By the time the truth was unveiled ,many innocent people had lost their entire savings. There seems to be more and more companies that exploited the public’s trust for their own interests . This calls for laws and strict regulations to put th e illegal practice to an end.

在过去的几年里，许多关于企业贪婪的新事件浮出水面，一些企业高管的非法行为对我们的经济有着消极的影响。使这情况变坏的是这些高管似乎得到一些政治领导人的同意。一些高管甚至贿赂立法者。最近，来自California 的一位国会成员被抓住从interest group索要礼物换取对新法的支持。一些政府高级领导人因非法行为在私下接受调查。这些甚至还有没有抓到问题的表面。几年前一个公司做了许多有目的的会计差错欺骗投资者。许多人认为这个问题变大的一个原因是我们的国家高层领导人对公司的保护。等到真相被揭露的时候，许多无辜的人已经失去了他们所有的积蓄。似乎越来越多的公司为了自己的利益利用公众的信用。这需要法律和严格的规则使这些违法行为结束。

The Disney Legends program was established in 1987

to acknowledge and honor the many individuals whose imagination, talents and dreams have created the Disney magic. The awards are given annually during a ceremony at the Walt Disney Studios.

The Legends are chosen by a selection committee chosen by Roy E. Disney. Since its inception, the program has honored

many gifted animators, songwriters, actors and business leaders as having made a significant impact on the Disney legacy.

In 1997, the Legends program was established in Europe with a ceremony held at the Disneyland Paris, commemorating the 5th anniversary of the park and honoring those who established many of the Disney European business. During the ceremony, a 14-foot bronze enlargement of the Disney Legends award was unveiled as an enduring reminder of their contributions.

On October 16, 1998, the new Disney Legends Plaza was dedicated at the Walt Disney Studios to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Walt Disney Company. The Plazafeatures a second edition of the bronze sculpture first placed in Disneyland Paris, with bronze

plaques representing the individual Legends lining the columns of the Plaza.

Each year, new Legends will join this celebrated group so that we may always remember the gifts of those people who know the secret of making dreams come true.

迪斯尼传奇项目设立于1987年，它是用来答谢和褒奖那些用想象力、天赋和梦想创造了迪斯尼魔法的人们的。这个奖项每年在迪斯尼制片厂的典礼上颁发。

1997年，传奇项目在欧洲设立伴随着在巴黎迪斯尼乐园举办了一个典礼，庆祝迪士尼公园建立5周年纪念日，并给那些建立了欧洲迪斯尼商业的人们授

予荣誉。在典礼上，一座14英尺的青铜迪斯尼传奇奖放大品被公布作为对他们贡献的持久铭记。

1998年10月16日，沃尔特迪斯尼制片厂奉献了一座新的迪斯尼传奇广场，用来纪念沃尔特迪斯尼公司成立75周年。广场以首次放置在巴黎迪斯尼乐园的第二版青铜雕塑为特色，用铜匾表示广场柱子上的每个人的传奇。

每年都会有新的传奇加入庆祝团体，所以我们会一直铭记那些知道如何去实

现梦想这一秘密的人们带来的礼物。

As a boss, I have dealt with all types of employees. The ones that are the least productive are those who are not adaptive. They may have high IQ points, but they just don't understand how to apply their theories to reality. I recently read a book by Daniel Goleman, which suggested that the true measure of intelligence was not IQ, but rather EQ or Emotional Intelligence. This made a lot of sense to me. I have never been at the top of my class, but I have always been efficient and worked well with other people. I have always taken good communication skills my number one priority. I think only testing how well a person solves complicated academic problems fails to take into account other abilities, which can be just as crucil and even more so to a person's accomplishments. In fact, many of the "idea people" have a real hard time getting their point across. They simply don't have the skills to demonstrate how valuable their idea might be. Sure, the world would be lost without these "idea people", but I'd rather hire someone with superior EQ. The higher a person's EQ is, the better they will be able to implement the great ideas they have. The real trick is finding someone who combines both.

作为一个老板，我已经处理了所有类型的员工。这是生产力最低的是那些不适应。他们可能会有高的智商，但他们只是不知道如何运用自己的理论与现实。最近我读了一本由丹尼尔戈尔曼，这表明，智慧的真正衡量不是智商，而是情绪商数。这个道理我。我从来没有在我的班上最好的，但我一直有效的工作，以及与其他人。我一直认为良好的沟通技巧，我的首要任务。我只想测试一个人如何解决复杂的学术问题，没有考虑到其他的能力，可就像克鲁基尔路甚至更多的是对一个人的成就。事实上，许多“思想”的人都很难获得他们的观点。他们没有说明他们的想法可能是有价值的技能。当然，世界将没有这些”观念的人”了，但我宁愿雇佣以优越的情商较高的一个人的情商的人，他们将能够实现他们伟大的思想更好。真正的窍门是找到那些结合了某人。

大学英语四级阅读理解解题技巧资料讲解

大学英语四级选词填空和快速阅读复习攻略 选词填空: 首先:预览选项，了解词义并把选项分为四大类词性:名词n，动词v，形容词a，副词ad，在每个选项后作词性的简要标记; 其次:精读全文开头，把握文章主题，并以三个空或一个段落为一个单位，利用前后文判断每空的词性; 第三:把对应词性的选项逐一带回原文，含义通顺，时态、主谓搭配一致的为正确选项。 记背选词填空选项的重点范围: 1.历年曾经考过的复合式听写的单词 2.历年曾经考过的完形填空的选项，仔细阅读态度题的选项 3.历年曾经考过的真题中的高频词汇 快速阅读: 建议做题方法:读题干并确定关键词(中心词)--去原文中定位关键词--分析定位句--分析题干--确定答案。 首先用“打包”方法对付乱序: 把整组题全部一次性吃透，然后去原文从头到尾定位。否则，考生如果按顺序逐题解答，时间会严重不足，最好是文章一遍看下来，能找到所有的信息。此外，考生应该注意定位原文的过程中，一定要脑、眼和手并用:眼是肯定要用的，不用脑会导致忽视同义转换，不用手(笔)会使我们处于走马观花的状态，然后会怀疑自己是不是漏掉了信息而不停地看。 其次:“吃透”题干，准确判断关键词(中心词)至关重要。如果没吃透题干，就无法准确判断关键词或中心词，就可能对原文中的重要信息没感觉。一般来说，题干关键词或中心词为实词以及一些数字、专有名词等。 最后，在解题的先后顺序上，采用先易后难的策略。采用由易到难的解题策略，可以提升考生的解题信心。对于那些答题线索较少的题干细节信息，考生可留在最后再解答。在解答这类较难的题目时，考生可快速阅读原文中仍未选过的段落的主题句(通常为第一句、第二句或最后一句)，之后根据段落大意与题干中的细节信息进行匹配。

(四级填空)大学英语四级选词填空技巧汇总

选词填空技巧汇总 大学英语四级考试的阅读部分，除了传统的两篇仔细阅读和一篇快速阅读，还有一种让考生普遍头痛的考法：选词填空。 选词填空的考察形式是：一篇280词左右的文章，文章中挖出10个空，并统一给出A-O15个备选答案。 选词填空区别于完形填空，有更大的解题难度，原因在于： 1. 完形填空每题都是四选一，选词填空第一题要十五选一，就算用到排除法，最后一题也要六选一，而且在十五个选项中还有五个根本不会用到，难度加大； 2. 完形填空每题的四个选项都是统一的词性，只需要辨析词义、搭配就基本可以作答，而选词填空的十五个选项有多个词性，解题时需要同时判断词性和词义，难度加大； 3. 完形填空每题的四个选项往往都是统一时态，统一形式，而在选词填空中会涉及选项的动词时态、第三人称单数形式、被动主动语态，名词的单复数等的辨析，难度加大。 因此，针对选词填空的解题方法分为三步： 1. 预览选项，了解词义并把选项分为四大类词性：名词n，动词v，形容词a，副词ad，在每个选项后作词性的简要标记； 2. 精读全文开头，把握文章主题，并以三个空或一个段落为一个单位，利用前后文判断每空的词性； 3. 把对应词性的选项逐一带回原文，含义通顺，时态、主谓搭配一致的为正确选项。 四级考试的常用后缀在判断选项词性时可以有一定帮助作用： 常见名词后缀： -ability usability, capability -ibility visibility, responsibility, stability -age package, shortage, marriage -ance importance, allowance, reliance -ence presence, absence, confidence -ant assistant, accountant, inhabitant -ent president, resident, dependent
