85.【解析】选[C]。语义衔接题。教育部通过一种处理资金的方式来对新的发展产生重要影响，这一方式应该是[C] distribute“分配，分发”，因为教育部有决定给各个大学补助金多少的权力，所以才能施加影响。 [A] collect“收集”、[D] gather“聚集”可以促使资金额度增长，但积累资金的权力并不能使教育部左右大学的发展；[B] contribute“捐助”不符合教育部与大学之间的关系。
86.【解析】选[B]。惯用衔接题。空格所在分句是说明前面University Grants Committee的，空格前body是其同位语，空格后是academics“大学教师”，因此该空格表示的是组成关系，故选[B] composed。be composed of 意为“由…组成”。consist为不及物动词，表示“由…组成”时须与of连用，如 The audience consisted mainly of teenagers.（观众主要是青少年。）故排除 [A]consisted。 be made of 表示“由…做成/构成”，着重于对原材料的分析，如 Paper is made from wood.（纸是用木头做的）。
Part VI Translation
87.【解析】sucking milk through a straw。此处used是形容词，表示“已适应，已习惯”，to后接名词或动名词形式。
88.【解析】how relevant the material is for you。此处考查how引起的宾语从句的用法，表示“多么，到何种程度”。
89. 【解析】when she was laid off from her factory job。此处考查动词短语lay off的用法。
90.【解析】For the first and last time。此句为倒装结构。注意first和last的连用情况。
91.【解析】rather than proclaims its own。rather than意思相当于instead of。

【范文及点评】
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to you (1)out of an urgent need of a reference book. As I am going to take the CET-4 exam in one and a half months, I desperately want to improve my writing skills. I would like to buy a book that will tell me a lot about how to write a good composition in the CET-4 exam, enabling me to write as many words as required and avoid making serious mistakes. The book (2)is supposed to contain the writing sections, with model essays provided, in the real tests of the previous three years. (3)In addition, there will be plenty of writing exercises together with samples. (4)However, a very thick book is out of the question as the exam is coming so soon.
I am wondering how I shall pay for the book. I wish to send money in an affordable and convenient way. Can I remit money from a post office?
(5)By the way, can you tell me how soon the book will reach me? And in which way? Sent by post, or else? I would appreciate it if you send me the book as soon as possible. I am (6)looking forward to your reply at your earliest convenience.
Yours Sincerely,
Zhang Qiang

Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)
1.【解析】[Y]。四级的快速阅读篇幅较长，问题较多，考生需要首先浏览一下全文，做到对文章内容有个整体把握，并对各个部分的话题有一定记忆。本题考查文章的主旨，因此需要运用skimming的技巧，根据原文的小标题可知，文章探讨了矿物燃料（fossil fuel economy）经济的弊病，氢经济（hydrogen economy）的优点、需要解决的技术问题以及氢经济的前景，陈述中benefits与advantages同义，potential problems是对technical hurdles的转述。
2.【解析】[Y]。本句讲oil spill对environment的害处，因此定位在problems with the fossil fuel economy处。矿物燃料经济有四大问题，再查找与environment相关的内容，即environmental pollution处。根据An oil spill, … can create a huge mess.可知本句正确，a huge mess与a big problem为同义转述。针对细节题，考生需要找出题干中的关键词，然后通过关键词对原文中的相关内容进行定位，先定位到小标题，然后进一步查找有无答案出处。
3.【解析】[NG]。本题涉及到在石油进口依赖性方面，美国与其他主要工业国家的比较。首先确定要查找的内容在矿物燃料经济四大的dependence部分。该部分讲到了美国对石油具有依赖性，但并没有将美国与其他主要工业国家作比较，因此本句属于原文中没有的内容。
4.【解析】[N]。本题与能否在任何地方生成氢（produce hydrogen）有关。在原文中，讲完矿物燃料经济的四大问题后，开始讲述氢经济的优点，在distributed production后提到，Hydrogen can be produced anywhere that you have electricity and water.题干与此相悖，故错误。
5.【解析】[Y]。本题围绕氢的来源，因此锁定查找内容在Where does the hydrogen come from?部分。该部分中提到To have a pure hydrogen economy, the hydrogen must be derived from renewable sources…而with a view to与to have …都表示目的，原句用了被动语态，而题干转换成了主动语态。
6.【解析】[Y]。在美国，电来自于媒和自然气的比例有多少？根据上题出处下面的内容Where will the electricity for the electrolysis of water come from?可以发现Currently, about 68 percent of the electricity produced in the United States comes from coal or natural gas.而about 68 percent表明大部分电都来源于媒和天然气。
7.【解析】[N]。本题涉及how the hydrogen can be stored的问题，将查找内容定位在How do you store and transport the hydrogen?的小标题部分。根据However处的内容可知，solutions已经在surfacing，而不是no solution in sight。
8.【解析】reforming fossil fuels。本题考查氢的来源，即Where does the hydrogen come from?原文中指出There are two possible sources，即electrolysis of water和reforming fossil fuels.
9.【解析】solved；standardized。根据题干将查找内容定位在How do you store and transport the hydrogen?部分，
10.【解析】the marketing of fuel-cell-powered vehicles。根据题干concerning the future of the hydrogen economy可将查找内容定位在prospects for the future处。进一步查找发现The most obvious step we will see is the marketing of fuel-cell-powered vehicles。一般来说，出题的顺序与查找内容在原文的顺序是一致的。
Part III Listening Comprehension
Section A
11. W: You know Frank’s appearance seems to be neater these days. I wonder why.
M: Maybe he just decided it was time to turn over a new leaf.
Q: What can be inferred about Frank?
【解析】选[C]。事实状况题。解答此题的关键是从比较级（appearance seems to be neater）推导出事情的现状（H’s improved...）。
12. W: I think our basket team’s got a good chance of winning the championship this
year.
M: What? Are you kidding? Have you seen them play recently?
Q: What does the man imply?
【解析】选[D]。 观点态度题。本题答题的关键是理解反问语气所表达的否定意味（doesn’t think...）。
13. W: About the class tonight, it’s unlikely I’ll be able to make it.
M: Well, we could just skip it together.
Q: What does the man suggest they do?
【解析】选[B]。行为活动题。解答此题的关键是把口语表达（skip it）转换成书面表达（don’t go to the class）。skip it的意思是“逃课”。
14. M: You can call Henry a dreamer, but I think he’s got a lot of good ideas.
W: Good ideas are only useful if you make something out of them.
Q: Why does the woman imply about Henry?
【解析】选[A]。观点态度题。解答此题的关键是理解同义表达间的转述（make something out of them ≈ put his ideas into practice）。
15. M: The doctor says I’ve to cut down on fattening foods. All the ones I like.
W: So that explains your mood.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【解析】选[C]。事实状况题。解答此题的关键是从原因（explains）推导出果（why the man...）。
16. M: I heard you were thinking of applying for a job as a camp counselor
W: Yeah, Do you know if they need anyone at that place where you worked last
summer?
Q: What does the woman ask the man?
【解析】选[C]。事实状况题。解答此题的关键是把从句所表达的内容（where you worked）用单词表达（former）。
17. W: This toothache is killing me! I was hoping it would just go away but it’s
getting worse by the minute. What did you say the name of your dentist was?
M: I told you last week to make that appointment.
Q: what does the Man imply?
【解析】选[D]。观点态度题。解答此题的关键是从别人曾经的建议（told you last week to …）推导出本该做却没有做的事情（should have seen the dentist earlier）。
18. M: About my section of the report. It’s unlikely I can email it over to you by
Monday. This class of Johnston just kills me.
W: Well, we could just ask him for more time.
Q: What does the woman suggest they do?
【解析】选[B]。行为活动题。解答此题的关键是理解同义表达间的转述（ask him for more time ≈ Ask Johnston to extend the deadline）。deadline指“最后期限” 。
Conversation One
M: Maths Department, Doctor Winston speaking.
W: Hello, Prof. Winston. This is Eliza Smith calling, I’m living two doors down from your teaching assistant, David Williams. David asked me to call you because he lost his voice and can’t talk to you himself.
M: Lost his voice? Oh, what a shame! Is there anything I can do for him?
W: Well, he has a class this afternoon from 2:30 to 4:00 and he won’t be able to teach it, but he doesn’t want to cancel it either.
M: Want me to try to find somebody else to teach the class?
W: No, not exactly. What he wants to do is to get someone go in for him, just to pass back the mid-term exams. He’s already marked them and they are on the desk in his office. The whole thing wouldn’t take more than ten minutes.
M: His class is at 2:30, eh? Well at that time I am going to be on campus anyway; so I can do it for him. What room is his class in?
W: Building 4, room two-fourteen. Will you need his office key to get the exams? He’s given it to me and I could bring it to you.
M: Actually, that won’t be necessary. We have a master key in the maths department. So I can get into his office if necessary.
W: Thanks very much, Prof. Winston. David doesn’t have another class to teach until Tuesday, and hopefully, he will be able to talk by then. He’ll call you as soon as he can. Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Could you put the next assignment on the board, too? It’s all the problems on page 45, and they are due at the next class.
M: No trouble at all. Thanks for passing all the news about David, and please tell him not to worry about anything.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What’s David’s problem?
【解析】选[C]。细节题。对话有一定的难度，涉及到三个人，Professor Winston，Eliza Smith（女士）和David，区分他们各自的身份和行为十分重要。从第一句speaking可以推断这是在打电话，接着女士介绍自己（This is Eliza Smith.），并介绍了打电话的原因，即David嗓子不舒服（lost his voice），无法说话，unable to talk正是录音中can’t talk的同义转述。
20. What favor does David want someone to do for him?
【解析】选[D]。细节题。15、16和17题都考查的是行为活动，因此对话中人物的主要活动要引起我们的注意。男士问是不是需要找人代课，女士说不是，而是pass back the mid-term exams，pass back与return同义。
21. What does Eliza offer to do?
【解析】选[B]。细节题。Eliza在提到office key时说，I could bring it to you，因此选[B]。本题关键是听清题目问的是Eliza表示愿意做什么。
22. What does Eliza almost forget to ask Professor Winston?
【解析】选[C]。细节题。Eliza请Professor Winston将期中试卷返回给学生，最后提到I almost forgot，原来是请对方put the next assignment on the board。
