2013专业四级【答案详解】 

PART 1 Dictation

What is a dream for?

One theory is that we dream to release the deep secret desires. We don't express these desires in real life because of the rules of polite society. Another theory is that dreams allow us to solve problems that we can't solve in real life. We go to sleep with the problem and wake up with the solution. This maybe a way to use our dreams rather than a purpose of dreaming. If you believe that your dreams are important, then analyzing them may help you to focus on the problem and help you to find the solution. The modern image is that the dreams are the brains' wave of cleaning up the computer's hard disk. Dreams organize the events of the day into folders and delete what is not needed. But we all know that very little of what we dream is concerned with what happened to us that day.

PART 4 GRAMMAR & VOCABULARY

51. Facing the board of directors,he didn't  deny __________ breaking the agreement.  

A. him B. it C. his D.  its  

解析：本题考查动名词的逻辑主语。动名词可以有自己的逻辑（意义）主语，一般可以用名词所有格Tom„s，代词宾格如him（口语），书面语情况下一般用物主代词his，their。本题选C，但我还是要吐槽，因为根本就不需要多此一举添加his, he didn't  deny breaking the  

agreement完全正确，比原题要精简地道许多，从写作角度来看，his根本是多余的，当然纯粹考察语法的话选C。 

 52. Xinchun returned from aboard a  different man. The italicized part functions as a(n) _______.  A. appositive(同位语) B. object C.  adverbial D. complement.  

解析：此题恐怕是最受争议的题目了，有人认为选A，有人认为选D。据目前来看，选D，具体讲解有待更新    

53. Which of the following is a compound word  (复合词)？  

A. Nonsmoker B. Deadline C.Meaness D. Misfit   

解析：首先要知道什么是复合词。A compound is a word that consists of more  

than one free morpheme。所谓morpheme词素是最小的音义结合体，其最大的特点是不能再被分割为更小的音义结合体。而free  

morpheme是指能独立存在使用的词素，bound morpheme则是必须依附于其他单位的词素，比如前缀后缀属于bound  morpheme，如pre-，-ment，在单词shipment里，ship就是free  

morpheme，ment则是bound。因此四个选项里只有deadline是由两个free morpheme构成（dead+line），其他三个都有Bound  

morpheme比如non,ness,mis-等。  

54. Which of the following sentences contains  subjunctive mood?  

A. Lucy insisted that her son get home before 5  o'clock?  

B. She used to drive to work, but now she takes  the city metro.  

C. Walk straight ahead, and don't turn till the  second traffic lights.  

D. Paul will cancel his flight if he cannot get  

his visa by Friday.  解析: subjunctive  

mood是指虚拟语气，四个选项里只有A的insist属于虚拟语气用法，其中that从句里省略了should。   

55.The-following determiners can be used  with both plural and uncountable nouns EXCEPT  A. more B. enough C.many  D. such  

解析：限定词的用法是近几年专四的热门考点，诸如some，many，both，all，each等用法究竟如何还是希望大家多翻阅语法书和词典。这道题看似有点难度，也许你从来不知道哪个限定词可以接名词复数和不可数名词，但好在备选项里每个单词你都可以去接名词试试就知道了，比如more  

money,more trees; enough money, enough trees; many money?, many trees; such big  trees, such behavior.所以选C。   

56. Which of the italicized parts indicates  CONTRAST?  

A. She opened the door and quietly  went in.  

B. Victoria likes music and Sam is  fond of sports.  

C. Think it over again and you'll get  an answer.  

D. He is somewhat arrogant, and I  don't like this.  

解析：首先要明白and不一定表示并列。A，C里的and表示先后；D里的and表示递进；只有B里的and表示对比。    

57. Which of the following CANNOT be used as a  nominal substitute(名词替代词)？  A. Much B. Neither C. One  D. Quarter   

解析：估计不少学生看到名词替代词这个术语，一开始都吓着了，因为压根没听说过，不过对做这道题目倒无大碍，所谓名词替代词顾名思义就是指能代替名词或名词短语，避免重复的词，英语里one,  

ones,(the)same等都是常见的。比如There are good films as well as bad ones.除此以外还有the kind,  the sort，比如Slang disappears quickly, especially the juvenile  

sort.还有一些不定代词等比如all, both, some, any enough, several, none, many,  much, (a) few, (a) little, the other, others, another, either,neither等，比如Can you get me some nails? I need some. I don’t want  any more food. I’ve had enough. 本题选D, quarter不是名词替代词。   

58. All the following sentences definitely  indicate future time EXCEPT  

A. Mother is to have tea with Aunt Betty at  four.  

B. The President is coming to the UN next  week,  

C. The school pupils will be home by  now.  

D. He is going to email me the necessary  information.  

解析：这道题目有点意思，既考查时态，又考查will的用法，A/B/D都是将来时的各种表达，唯独C的will，看似是将来时标志，其实不然，因为和by  

now矛盾，这里will的用法是指you think something is true，表说话人自己的看法，比如That will be Tim coming  home now; Ask anyone and they will tell you the same thing. 本题选C。   

59. Which of the following sentences is  grammatically INCORRECT?  A. Politics are the art or science of  government.  

B. Ten miles seems like a long walk to  me.  

C. Mumps is a kind of infectious  disease.  

D. All the furniture has arrived  undamaged.  

解析：本题考查主谓一致（agreement）。ten  

miles看作整体单数，mumps腮腺炎这个单词就是以s结尾的，不可数名词；furniture在英语里是不可数名词；A里的politics并不是指政治，而是指政治学(political  

science)，是不可数名词，但这个用法主要是英式英语。此外，politics表示政治可以看作不可数名词，也可以看作复数，比如Politics have  

always interested me. 本题选A。   

60. Which of in the following phrases indicates  a subject-predicate relationship?  A. The arrival of the tourists  B. The law of Newton  C.The occupation of the island  D. The plays of Oscar Wilde  

解析：传统语法和现代句法学关于什么是predicate本身就不一样，题目的传统语法predicate指谓语，是对主语动作或状态的陈述或说明，指出“做什么”“是什么”或“怎么样”。其次，说实话，我手上所有图书查不到相关语法点讲解subject-predicate  

relationship，谷歌后也没有什么结果，但我知道是选A，游客到来，只是我暂时找不出任何可靠来源来解释。   

61. Which of the following italicized parts  serves as an appositive?  A. He is not the man to draw  back.  

B.Tony hit back the urge to tell a  lie.  

 C. Larry has a large family to  support.  

D. There is really nothing to  fear.  

解析：又是同位语？！但是翻遍手上的各类参考书，都没有关于不定式to的同位语用法。四个选项的用法在语法书里并没有做进一步区分，都成为不定式的定语用法，修饰名词。不过还是可以看出不太一样的地方，A中名词和不定式是动宾结构the  

man draw back，C和D都是不定式和名词构成动宾to fear nothing, to support  family；而唯独B,urge(冲动)的内容就是指to tell a lie撒谎，故为同位语。   

62. Which of the following is NOT an imperative  sentence?  

A. Let me drive you home, shall I?  B. You will mind your own business.  C. Come and have dinner with us.  D. I wish you could stay behind.  

解析：花了点时间翻遍手头各类语法和用法图书，除了直接用动词打头，Do/Don't，You/其他唤名+动词,  let类型外，均没有见到D的wish类型。   

63. If it _______ tomorrow, the match would be  put off.  

A. were to rain B. was to  rain C. was raining D. had rained  

解析：最经典的If条件虚拟句，说的是将来，应该选A.   

64. Which of the following sentences expresses  a fact?  

A. Mary and her son must be home by now.   

B. Careless reading must give poor  results.  

C. It's getting late, and I must leave  now.  

D. He must be working late at the  office.  

解析：很多人都以为选B，其实应该选C。A，B和D都是推测，当然了C里说的fact其实是指天色不早了。请注意B，不要以为有了must就是fact，情态动词再华丽还是表示情态，说话人的态度观点，B要改为Careless  reading gives poor results才是fact。   

65. The following are all dynamic verbs(动态动词)  EXCEPT  

A. remain B. turn C. write D.  knock  

解析：看到专四考这个题目，我只能呵呵。动态动词是指能够延续持续动作的，比如hit，run等，相反的则是stative  verb静态动词，比如know.现在进行时是常见检验手段。你不能说I am knowing the answer，只能说I know the  answer，因此know是静态动词。同理，题目的A选项remain也是静态动词，其他都是动态动词。

The advantages of being careful with money in daily life

Nowadays, there is a hot debate on whether people, including students should be careful with their money in their daily life since they try their best to save money. Some people think it is not good to do so because this may not make people smart consumers. But in my eyes, the advantages of being careful with money in daily life outweigh the disadvantages.

First, being careful with money is a virtue that can always benefit people. Being thrifty is of great help, especially when the economic status around the world is not very good and it becomes harder to earn money than before. A good habit of being careful with money will help many people go through this difficult period or any other difficult financial situation in their life. People with this awareness will think carefully before deciding to buy anything. For students, this awareness is also of great help since they mainly depend on their parents for financial supports. When they keep this awareness in their mind, they will definitely avoid wasting money.

Secondly, being careful with money is, in fact, a good way of practicing how to manage

one's money. In current society, it is necessary to learn something about finance. But theories are usually hard to learn. In contrast, most people can learn quickly by practicing. Being careful with money means an efficient use of money, which, in essence, equals to part of the job of a financial planner. Being careful with money can teach people to make best use of their money.

It is true that being too careful with money may have some disadvantages; for example, it may cause people to ignore other aspects of commodities. But overall this behavior is good and has its reality basis. Money-consciousness is always needed in the market-oriented economy.
