TEM4 Analysis ---------- NiuQiang 2014年英语专业四级考试要求 听力理解： ? 　　(a)考试时间约15分钟。 ? 　　(b)能听懂VOA和BBC国际新闻的主要内容。 ? 　　(c)能听懂英语国家人士关于日常生活、社会生活的讲演或交谈和难度相当于TOEFL中的minitalk等中等难度听力材料，理解中心大意，抓住主要论点或情节，能根据所听材料进行推理和分析。 Cloze 　Everyone knows that taxation is necessary in a modern state: Without it, it?would not be possible to pay the soldiers and policemen who protect us；nor?the workers in government offices who?look after?our health, our food, our water, and all the other things that we cannot do for ourselves.?By means of?taxation, we pay for things that we need just?as much as?we need somewhere to live and something to eat.　　But?though everyone knows that taxation is necessary, different people have different ideas about?how?taxation should be arranged. 　 In most countries, a direct tax on?persons, which is called income tax,?exists. It is arranged in such a?way?that the poorest people pay nothing, and the percentage of tax grows?larger?as the taxpayer’s income grows. In England, for example, the tax on the richest people?goes up?as high as ninety-five percent!　　But?countries with direct taxation nearly? always ?have indirect taxation too. Many things imported into the country have to pay taxes or “duties”. Of course, it is the men and women?who?buy these imported things in the shops who really have to pay the duties, in the?form?of higher prices. In some countries,?too, there is a tax on things sold in the shops. If the most necessary things are taxed, a lot of money is collected, but the poor people suffer most. If unnecessary things?like?jewels and fur coats are taxed, less money is got but the tax is?fairer, as the rich pay it.　　 Look after: 1.to take care of someone by helping them, giving them what they need,or keeping them safe 照顾，照料 2.to be responsible for dealing with something负责处理 As as可以作连词、介词及关系代词。现将其用法小结如下:? 一、?as作连词的用法:? 1.?作当……的时候,引导时间状语从句。注意与when、?while的用法区别。? ①?when作当……的时候解,可以指较短的(一点)时间,也可指一段时间。如:? When?he?was?at?college,
