答案與解析：
1.C 譯文：他們把這個報告提交給國務院批准。解析：A.made 制，做。B.leave out 省去，略去。C.committed 把……提交給，commit…to…把……提交給……。D.admitted 接納，納容。均不合題意。結合上下文題意，C為正確答案。
2.B 譯文：我該堅持讓你去美國之前做一次徹底檢查的。解析：insist on...堅持……，後動名詞作賓語，據此A.C被排除。動名詞的邏輯主語應用形容詞性物主代詞;不能用人稱代詞或其賓格形式引出。因此，只有B答案符合要求。
3.C 譯文：鋼制的桌子比用木頭制的桌子價格貴些。解析：B.which 不能用於此處，因為不是定語從句。D.it is 用於此處，結構錯誤。one和that都可以用來代替前邊出現過的名詞，但如果名詞是單數可數名詞。則用 (the) one 代替，據此C為最佳答案。
4.D 譯文：既然這項工程我們已經進行了這么多，我們還是把它完成的好。解析：may as well還是……的好，固定搭配，其它各項均無此意思。
5.B 譯文：從經濟的角度來看，他們的計劃是不可行的。解析：A.efficient 有效的.，效率高的。指具體的行動或方法產生預期的效果而不浪費時間，精力等。計劃只是一個籠統的概念，故不能用efficient來描述。 C..advisable明智的，合理的，用來描述具體的作法，行動或想法等。e.g Is it advisable to stay here?留在這里合適嗎?plan不是具體的行動，故不能用advisable來修飾。D.urgent緊急的，緊迫的，用於此處語義不通順。 B.feasible可行的，行得通的。經常用來表述計劃或一系列措施的可行性。用於此處恰當，故B是正確答案。
6.B 譯文：我們老師的閱讀范圍非常廣泛。解析：A.extent 長度，范圍，大小。指一塊土地的面積大小的范圍。B.range范圍，領域。既可以指一塊土地，又可以用來指抽象的「領域，范圍」。C.limit 限度，界線，一般不用 wide 修飾，因為 limit 本身含有「被束縛，被限制的范圍」的意思。D.border邊界，界線，多用於指國與國之間的邊界或邊境地區。綜上分析，可以看出只有B答案適合用於此處。
7.D 譯文：我在屋頂閣樓上意外發現幾張舊照片。解析：A.come through 接通(電話)。B.come to 蘇醒，涉及;C.come round 來，到來，恢復健康。以上三項均與題意無關。D.come across 碰到，意外遇見。符合題意，因此D是正確答案。
8.B 譯文：我寧可推遲開會也不願開准備不充分的會。解析：prefer後接兩個不定式相比較時，只能用rather than, rather than 後跟不帶to的不定式。故此B項正確。
9.D 譯文：直到午夜，他們才發現孩子不在床上。解析：not...until...直到…才…，固定句式。
10.D 譯文：大多數醫生都承認醫學既是一門科學，也是一門藝術。解析：as much...as ...是固定結構，意為「……程度一樣」。又如：This is as much our responsibility as yours.這既是你們的責任，也是我們的責任。

作文2
Writing
Write proposals for the service of StudentsUnionl/The Federa-tion of Students
範文∶
Dear President，
I hope you are doing great！l am Li Ming，one of the sophomore students in our university.I saw that our Student Union posted a notice collecting advice about enriching extracurricular activ-ities， soI am writing this letter to make some suggestions.
First， could you organize more sports activities？ Now， there is only one annual school-wide sports meet， and I believe both the variety and the frequency of such events can be increased. Second， it might be a good idea for our students to engage in more social activities which can broaden their horizons and im-prove their sense of responsibilities. The Student Union can re-cruit volunteers to aid rural Project Hope primary schools，go to nursing homes to visit elderly people， and raise funds to help disadvantaged groups.Besides， I suggest that more distin-guished experts and scholars in distinct fields be invited to de-liver speeches to our students.Last year，the Student Union or-ganized a couple of forums and lectures， which received wide acclaim from both students and teachers in our school.
Thank you for your time， and I believe our Student Union will play in bigger role in enriching our students＇mind by organiz-ing colorful and diversified extracurricular activities.
Warm regards，
Li Ming

2019年大學英語四級考試閱讀模擬灶和試題：父親形象
Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it's a girl."
Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel pride when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experiencewith them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy wasan accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.
Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to ecate fathers in this reconciliation (協調) process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of fathers.
It is argued by some writers that the change to the father's role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must take to the mother's role. The mother's role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative(創新的) adaptation. On the other hand, the father's role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.
練習題：

1.What can we know about fatherhood from the passage?
A.It brings a feeling of excitement to most man
B.It make some man feel proud and others uneasy
C.It has a different meaning for men who have daughters
D.It means a responsibility that men accept unwillingly
2.What does the passage say about the shift from the role of husband to that of father?
A. Numerous books have been written about it.
B. Not enough attention has been paid to it.
C. The shift is harder for men than for women.
D. The shift is a difficult but incomplete one.
3.What can we know about mothers from the passage?
A.Mothers get more attention and recognition from society
B.Mothers are innovative and demanding according to some writers
C.Mothers generally stay at home to take care of the children
D.Mothers should help fathers in their reconciliation process
4.Which of the following will the author most probably disagree with?
A. It's as difficult to be a father as it is to be a mother.
B. More books should focus on the role of fathers.
C. The father is still the breadwinner in the household.
D. Fathers are as important to children as mothers.
5.The author's purpose in writing this passage is to
A. explain why there are few books on the role of fathers.
B. praise mothers for their great contributions to the home.
C. criticize fathers for not taking enough responsibility in bringing up the children.
D. complain about the lack of social programs to help fathers in their role shift.
參考答案及解析
1.[B] 事實細節題。由第2段第2句中的pride和worry可以判斷選項B是對該句的近義替換。選項A原文未提到。選項C曲解了原文第2段第1句的意思，該句中的「Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning」表示對於每個男人來說當上父親具有不同的意義，而不是就瓊斯先生而言。第2段最後一句表明只有部分人不情願接受責任，因此在D選項men前面加上some才正確。
2.[B] 推理判斷題。根據第3段最後兩句可以推斷選項B正確。選項A與第3段最後一句陳述的相反。最後一段第1句雖有提及向父親角色的轉變很困難,但並未像選項C那樣對比。選項D錯在incomplete一詞,文中並未提及與該詞相關的內容。
3.[A] 推理判斷題。本題可用排除法。選項B曲解了最後一段第2、3句對母親角色的描述。選項C與原文最後一句不符。選項D原文未提及。只有選項A概括了全文關於母親的論述，而且第2段最後一句也暗示母親受到的關注更多。
4.[C] 推理判斷題。最後一句提到很多人仍然認為父親應該負擔家計,但從本句的用詞如even though和still可以看出作者對這種看法並不認同，由此可以判斷只有選項C作者可能不贊成。
5.[D] 主旨大意題。原文第1、2段講到父親們對將為人父的不同反應;第3段指出很少有人嘗試幫助父親完成角色的轉換;最後一段是一些作家對此做出的不太符合事實的解釋，因此，只有選項D能概括文章的寫作目的。選項A只是文中第2段中的某個細節;選項B的重點是mother,與本文的論題不符;作者並無批評父親之意，因此選項C不正確。
2019年大學英語四級考試閱讀模擬試題：技能多樣性
It』s very interesting to note where the debate about diversity(多樣化) is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate(公司的) leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that proce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place,diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool of potential employees. And in looking at where birth rates are growing andat where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promotingpolicies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that does not occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the business managers they will need.
Likewise, I don』t hear people in the academy saying.」Let』s go backward. Let』s go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy(不拘一格選人才)」 (which was never true-we never had a meritocracy, although we』ve come closer to it in the last 30 years.) I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus has doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined the community, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus. Now, all of us feel the university is betterbecause corporate board rooms or on college campuses.

B. American political circles will not accept diversity

5.According to the passage diversity can be achieved in American society by ____
A. expanding the pool of potential employees
B. promoting policies that provide skills to employees
C. training more engineers, scientists lawyers and business managers
D. providing ecation for all regardless of race or sex
參考答案及解析
1.[D] 詞義理解題。本句說到公司要在地球村和全球市場上競爭，多樣性是imperative，由前文「沒有取消引起多樣性的手段」和下文提到的公司對各種各樣有技能的美國人的需求可知，多樣性對於企業來說應該「必需的」故D正確。
2.[B] 事實細節題。第2段末句指出這種辯論主要存在於政治圈和媒體中，結合上句內容，可知其中的this debate指的就是關於多樣性的辯論，故B正確。
3.[C] 事實細節題。由第1段第4句可知，公司高層領導人促進多樣化的原因是想要在全球市場上更具競爭力，C與此相符。
4.[A] 推理判斷題。第2段中提到有些人認為在沒有多樣性的過去照樣能做到不拘—格選人才，但作者馬上which was never true否定此觀點，故A正確。第2段只提到多樣性的辯論存在於政治圈和媒體，但並不代 表在這兩個圈子裡不能接受或從未出現多樣性，故排除B、C;D說法過於絕對,且在文中找不到依據，也可排除。
5.[D] 推理判斷埋。由第1段倒數第2句可知企業expand the pool就意味著向more minorities，more women 和 more immigrants提供技能培訓，而expand the pool對應的就是題干中的說的多樣性的形成，D中的race 和sex分別對文中minorities和women，故正確。A泛泛而談，沒有說到點子上，不如D具體、准確;B與多樣性沒有關系，C是利用文中的有關職業的詞拼湊而成的干擾項。
2019年大學英語四級考試閱讀模擬試題：心理健康
Thoughts of suicide haunted Anita Rutnam long before she arrived at Syracuse University. She had a historyof mental illness and had even attempted to kill herself. During her junior year of college, she tried again. On a February morning in 1998, just days after a campus counselor recommended she be hospitalized for her suicidal tendencies, Rutnam threw herself off the eighth floor of a Syracuse dormitory.
Miraculously, she survived. But three years later, Rutnam still feels the effects of that day. She has notbeen able to finish college and is suing her former school for malpractice. Her suit asserts that, given the campus counselor's advice, school officials should have done more to prevent her suicide attempt.
This incident and others have thrown a spotlight on an issue that is causing growing concern in dorm roomsand students center. Are colleges providing adequate care for students who may be struggling with a range of mental illnesses? In the Syracuse cases, a spokesman for the school contends, "The University tried repeatedly to help Anita, and we felt that they acted appropriately." But lawyers are busy there and elsewhere.
After accidents, suicide is the second biggest killer of kids in college. And while the number of studentswho kill themselves on campus is no higher than that of 18-to-24-year-olds in the general population, a series of sensational incidents has raised the question of whether troubled students are getting proper attention.
So what are the schools' responsibilities to at-risk students, particularly those who may be genetically predisposed (易患……病的)to mental illness? College can be a breeding ground for Psychiatric problems. Poor eating habits and irregular sleeping patterns-especially combined with the academic stress of college life -may all play roles in triggering mental problems. Additionally, many of the major psychiatric illnesses including depression often do not manifest themselves until the late teens or early 20s.

參考答案及解析
1.[D] 事實細節題。根據題干定位第2段第2、3句。這兩句之間存在隱含的因果關系，第2句是因，第3句是果。只有選項D在第2句提到其他選項均未提及。
2.[B] 推理判斷題。本文開頭的例子所支持的現點在第3段第1句，同時結合suicide，此題答案為B。選項A、D的觀點有誤,選項C與本文的寫作目的無關。
3.[B] 事實細節題。第2段第3句中的malpractice和第4句中的虛擬語氣說明，她認為學校沒有對她的自殺企圖採取足夠的防範措施，故選B。選項A最具干擾性，但第3句說明學校關注過她的問題，只是關注不夠，因此選項A過於絕對。選項C中的academic instructions和D中的physical disease屬於與文章無關的信息。
4.[A] 事實細節題。第4段倒數第2句引文是該校發言人的辯護詞，與選項A的意思一致。選項B、C為無關信息。選項D是原文最後一段的原句照搬,與此題不相關。
5.[C] 事實細節題。最後一段提到造成精神疾病的多種原因。第1句中的generally predisposed為先天具有之意,與選項D的內容吻合。選項B和A分別對應文中破折號前後的內容。
