Artificial intelligence agents play ever more iniluential roles in our lives.[Q16]They do everything from suggesting new friends to recomimending purchases.[Q16]Theyre even beginning to drive our Cars,Another role that they are expected to take over is negotiating on our behalf in compercal transactions or legal disputes. So its important to know[Q17]whether using an artificial intelligence agent might affect how we negotiate.
Research indicates that it does.In a new study,participants were told to imagine that they were negotiating for something important to them,like a house.Next,they were told either that they would negotiate for themselves,or they would program an artificial intelligence agent to negotiate for them.Participants then completed a survey indicating how tough,deceptive and pleasant,or otherwise they wanted to be,or one of their agent to be in the negotiations. For example,participants could chodse tb be tough by making an opening demand far greater than what theyd be willing to accept.
They could also choose to express sympathy with their oppohent to appear pleasant,but they could also indicate that day or their agent would strategically express anger toward the opponent to gain advantage,or they coulc opt to convey dissatisfaction with the encounter,so that the other party would think they were losing interest.These are both examples of deceptive strategies.[Q18]Participants were more willing to employ deceptive strategies when assigned an agent to negotiate on their behalf.
Questions 16.What does the passage say about artificial intelligence agents?
Question 17 What does the new study want to find out about using an artificial intelligence agent?
Question 18 What did participants tend to do when assigned an Al agent to negotiate on their behalf?

New research has studied the effects of a Sevenjweek healthy cooking course.Academics measured the programs effect on cooking confidence and self-perceived mental health.Researchers also measured participants overall satisfaction around cooking and diet-related behayiors.What were the findings?[Q19]Course participants saw significant improvements in general health.They also reported improved mental health and subjective vitality immediately after the program.These benefits remained six months after the completion of the course.
What caused these improvements?Researchers have previously found a link between eating more fruits and vegetables and improved longer-term mental health.This would imply that the participants in the cucrent study may have felt better due to improved diet.However,the study showed participantsmental health improved even if the reported diets did not change after completing the program.
Also,the mental health benefits [Q20]were equal among participants who were overweight or obese and those in a healthy weight range.This suggests a link between cooking confidence and satisfaction around cooking and mental health benefits.
Who benefits most from learning to cook?Gender plays a part at the start of the program.77%of female participants were confident about cooking while just 23%of males were confident.At the end of the program.[Q21]Cooking confidence and skills were equal across both counterparts.This changing confidence could lead to a gender balance in home cooking.This,in turn,could reduce consumptioh of unhealthy,high -calorie processed meals.
Question 19:What do we learn about the benefits the participants gained from the healthy cooking course?
Question 20:What do the new research findings suggest about mental health benefits?
Question 21:What plays a role in determining who benefits most from learning to cook?
Secetion C:短文3
What is personal space?We often think of it as an invisible bubble of spaceCSurrounding us that others cant enter without causing discomfort.Research shows however,【22】 that we actually have bubbles of different sizes.Each of these bubbles applies to a different set of people.
The smallest zone called intimate space extends outward from our bodies 18 inches in ever direction.Only family,pets and ones closest friends may enter it.【23】A mere acquaintance entering our intimate space makes us uncomfortable.
Next is the bubble called personal space extending from 1.5 feet to 4 feet away.Friends and acquaintances can comfortably occupy this zone,especially during informal conversations,but strangers apre forbidden.
【24】 Extending from 4 to 12 feet away Cbir us is social space.Here people feel comfortable conducting routine social interactions with new acquaintances or total strangers.
Those are the average siaes of Americas personal bubbles anyway.It is important to keep in mind that personal space varies depending on culture and context.Funhermore,there are signiicant individual differences.As we all know,cultural or individual differences in personal bubble diameters are all too often the cause of discomfort.
How did these persong bubbtes arise?According to researcn,we begin to develop our individual sense of personalspace around age 3 or 4.The sizes of our bubbles are fixed 【25】by onn teens.These bubbles are constructed and monitored by the brain region involved in fear.
Question 22.What does research show about our personal space?
Question 23.What happens if a mere acquaintance enters our intimate space?
Question 24.Where do people feel comfortable interacting with new acquaintances or strangers?
Question 25.When are the sizes of our bubbles fixed?

改革开放以来，中国人的饮食发生了显著的变化。过去由于经济落后，食品种类有限，数量不足，人们仅仅满足于吃得饱。如今中国经济快速发展，食品不仅更多丰富多样，质量也大幅提高。随着生活水平不断提升，人们对饮食的要求越来越高，更加注重吃的营养。因此目前市场上推出的低脂、低糖、有机食品受到人们的普遍欢迎。
Since the reform and opening-up,Chinese diet has undergone significant changes.In the past when the economy was backward,food was so short in both kinds and amount that people were only concerned about whether they had enough to eat.Today,as the Chinese economy develops rapidly,food is not only more diverse but also much better in quality.With the improvement of living conditions,people have higher demand for food,paying more attention to food nutrition.Therefore,low-fat,low-sugar and organic foods that are launched into the market enjoy great popularity among people.

Suppose your university newspaper is inviting submissions from students for its coming edition on a campus event that has impressed them most.
Last Saturday, our Student Union organized the AnnuaI Campus Sports Games, which lasted throughout the weekend. This activity left an unforgettable impression on me. lt was a huge success because not only did it spark students enthusiasm for sports activities, but it also proved our universitys openness and care for students needs.
The games started at 9 a.m. with a short speech de livered by the principal of our university, who emphasized the im- portance of sports in building a healthy and balanced life-style. Then, various sports event were held including track and field, basketball, swimming, and even chess, catering to a wide range of interests and abilities. The highlight for me was th e relay race, which saw an incredible display of teamwork a nd determination. Additionally, many students, me included, were impressed with the good organization of the events, the exciting cheers and medaI awarding ceremony held on the Sunday evening.
ln all, it was clear that these events had achieved more than just physical engagement. They fostered a sense of community, encouraged healthy competition, and allowed students from different backgrounds to connect and engage.
上周六我们学生会组织了一年一度的校园运动会，运动会持续了整个周末。这次活动给我留下了难忘的印象。这次活动取得了巨大的成功，不仅激发了学生们对体育活动的热情，也证明了我校对学生需求的开放和关心。
运动会在上午9点开始，我们大学的校长发表了简短的讲话，他强调了体育在建立健康和平衡的生活方式中的重要性。然后，举办各种体育比赛，包括田径，篮球，游泳，甚至国际象棋，迎合了广泛的兴趣和能力。对我来说最重要的是接力赛，这是团队合作和决心的不可思议的展示。此外，包括我在内的许多学生都对活动的良好组织、激动人心的欢呼声和周日晚上举行的颁奖仪式印象深刻。
总之，很明显，这些活动取得的不仅仅是身体接触。他们培养了一种社区意识，鼓励良性竞争，并允许来自不同背景的学生联系和参与。

College english test，band four，part two，listening comprehension，section a directions.In this section，you will hear three news reports.At the end of each news report，you will hear two or three questions.Both the news report and the questions will be spoken only once.After you hear a question，you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked ab c and d then mark the corresponding letter on answer sheet one with a single line through the center.
00:00:39 说话者2:
News report one.How you noticed how similar you are to your friends.It may be because your brains operate in harmony with each other.We know that friends are more likely to be the same age，gender and ethnic background as each other.Now it seems that brains are alike too.Researchers at the university of california scanned the brains of 42 classmates while they watched videos intended to provoke varying responses.Some people might find a romantic scene touching，for instance，while others would feel it was embarrassing，the activity of friends，brains was more similar than that of people who didnt know each other，particularly in regions involved in attention，emotion and language.This similarity was strong enough used to predict whether two people were already friends or not.The relationship probably goes two ways.We are drawn to people who think like us.We then influence their thoughts over time which may push their brain activity into more closely resembling our own questions.
00:01:58 说话者1:
One and two are based on the news report.You have just heard question one，what may be the reason that friends are similar to each other？According to the recent research？
00:02:25 说话者1:
Question two，what does the news report say about the relationship between friends？News report two，two men who have been best friends for 60 years have just realized they are actually brothers.Its reported that alan robinson and walter mcdonald met in the 6th grade at a school in hawaii.They have been best friends ever since.Allen was given away for adoption soon after he was born.And walter never knew his father.So recently they made separate attempts on dna matching websites to discover more about their ancestry.Walter was astonished to find that he matched with website user robbie 737.He knew immediately that this was his best friend alan whose friends call him robbie and flew 7:00 30 7:00 airplanes when he was a pilot.The pair were born to the same mother15 months apart.
00:03:44 说话者2:

00:04:36 说话者2:
News reports three，amid all the election drama，air pollution problems and disease outbreaks.Five tourists good work is being spread online.Yesterday two male and three female tourists were spotted walking the kilometer long beach，picking up trash.One of the male tourists from australia comments said that although there was a lot of trash，nobody was doing anything.Beach was not as nice or beautiful as it should be.He felt so sad to see such a gorgeous place littered with so much trash.Thus he and his friends decided to grab a few trash bags and clean it all up.A man passing by decided to video their good deed and put it on the internet.It was unclear where the rest of the group was from.They were most likely traveling together.One local woman commented on being embarrassed that tourists were cleaning up their beach.Another mentioned that it was actually the natives who brought food and drinks then left trash all along the island.
00:05:42 说话者1:
Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.Question five，why did one of the male tourists feel sad？Question six，who put the good deed video on the internet？

00:07:34 说话者1:

00:07:48 说话者1:
I wont be here next saturday im going to the zoo.
00:07:52 说话者2:
00:07:53 说话者1:
My little nephew turns six and he loves the zoo，so the whole family is going.
00:07:58 说话者2:
Then I havent been to a zoo since I was a kid.
00:08:03 说话者1:
They are nowhere near as popular as they used to be when we were children.I personally feel sorry for the poor animals stuck in cages，but theres no denying they are fun and educational for children.
00:08:16 说话者2:
Do you know if dan will be around next saturday？
00:08:19 说话者1:
Yeah，I think he will just send him a text message.Hes always keen on physical activities.Thats true.
00:08:27 说话者2:

00:08:34 说话者1:

00:10:12 说话者2:
Conversation two.
00:10:14 说话者1:
our guest on todays book talk is john black，the author of the new best seller retire early.
00:10:22 说话者2:
Thanks for having me on the show，lisa.
00:10:25 说话者1:
john，your book is getting a lot of attention，partly because you write that most people can retire by 40.Is that realistic？Definitely.
00:10:35 说话者2:
When researching this book，I interviewed hundreds of people who retired by 40.
00:10:41 说话者1:
okay，but how much money does a person need to retire？Ive read articles recommending $1 million as a good figure for retirement.
00:10:51 说话者2:
While most financial planners do give numbers，I dont think thats useful as people are living in different areas with different costs of living and have different needs and wants，which is why I suggest that people aim for financial independence.
00:11:05 说话者1:
What do you mean by financial independence？
00:11:09 说话者2:
Having investment income thats greater than monthly expenses？
00:11:12 说话者1:
That sounds risky to me.What if an accident happens or you get ill and need medical treatment？Shouldnt people have extra cash for emergencies？
00:11:24 说话者2:
Too many people spend their lives working on jobs they hate because theyre afraid.So I counsel people to take risks.Retirement doesnt have to be permanent and if people need to they can go back to work.
00:11:38 说话者1:
But its not always easy to get back into the workforce after an extended absence.
00:11:43 说话者2:
True，but if you keep current with your skills，you will be attracted to employers.Maybe.
00:11:49 说话者1:
But how can anyone save enough to retire by 40 when most people cant retire at 60.
00:11:55 说话者2:
simple by cutting housing food and transport expenses and investing half your monthly income？
00:12:01 说话者1:
That sounds impossible.
00:12:04 说话者2:
I admit its difficult，but it has worked for thousands.
00:12:08 说话者1:
Questions？12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Question 12，what do we learn about the mans book published recently？Question 13，what do the articles the woman read recommend？Question 14，what does the man say about retirement？Question 15，how does the man say his proposal about retirement can be carried out.
00:13:20 说话者2:

00:14:05 说话者1:
Passage one，new research from america studies the role that the presence of individuals from different social or racial groups has in influencing consumers，food choices.This research found college students were more likely to choose healthy food in the presence of an observer of a different race as opposed to an observer from their own race.The same was true when they were with someone from a different university compared to someone from their own.Researchers say this was because participants anticipated more negative judgment from an outsider group.In contrast，they felt less judged by members of their own group.In one experiment，participants were offered the choice between candy and fruit as a snack when in the presence of an unknown student from their own university，only 12% of students selected the healthier option.However，this number was 31% when in the presence of an unknown student from another university，other experiments showed similar results based on racial group.Whats the reason for this pattern？The study found that people feel judged to a larger extent by members of other groups.Because of this，they strategically use healthy food choices to make a positive impression.There have been many attempts to help consumers make healthier choices，but consumers often struggle to maintain a healthy diet.This research finds that one way to promote a healthy diet could be to advertise the social benefits of healthy choices.
00:15:52 说话者2:
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 16，what was the finding of the new research from america about consumers，food choices？Question 17，when did 31% of students in the experiment select the healthier option？Question 18，how could a healthy diet be promoted according to the findings of the new research？Passage two？For college students under pressure，a dog may be the best stress fighter around according to the finding of a recent study.Its a really powerful finding said patricia henry who led the study.Universities are doing a lot of great work trying to help students succeed academically，especially those who may be at risk due to a history of mental health issues or academic and learning issues.This study shows that traditional stress management approaches answers effective for this population compared with programs that focus on providing opportunities to interact with therapy dogs.The researchers measured executive functioning in the students involved in the study.Executive function is a term for the skills one needs to plan，organize，motivate，concentrate and memorize.These are skills students need to succeed in college.The research has found that students who were most at risk had the most improvements in executive functioning after interacting with therapy dogs.These results remained when researchers followed up 6 weeks later.Many universities provide academic stress management programs and workshops.These are traditionally very similar to college classes.They often talk about ways to get more sleep set goals or manage stress or anxiety.Pendry acknowledges these are really important topics and these workshops help typical students succeed，but they are less helpful for struggling students.Henry believes those students may experience the programs as another lecture，feel even more stressed.
00:18:58 说话者1:
Questions，19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 19.What does the recent study led by patricia pendry？Aim to examine question 20.What did the new study measure in the participants？Question 21.What does patricia hendrick think traditional stress management programs may do？
00:20:09 说话者1:
Passage three，taking risks in business does not mean going into business blindly and then expecting great results.On the contrary，taking risks in entrepreneurship involves careful planning and hard work.Nobody can really be sure if risks will be met with success，no matter how calculated they may be.But this should not stop you from taking risks as risks are necessary if you want your business to succeed，some risks may not work out，but an optimistic risk taker will always look at failure as an opportunity to learn.The willingness to experiment with new ideas is key to business growth.As the old saying goes，nothing ventured，nothing gained.Failure will teach you how to think and plan strategically，but just remember that not all risks are good ones.And when you fail，learn from it and move forward.Since most people tend to avoid risk，businesses that are brave enough to take risks，already have a competitive advantage.They are the ones setting the standard with new ideas，fresh offers and bold inventions.Risk takers are best at adapting in difficult times，simply put when most individuals stay away from risk.It means less competition for risk takers.We dont know if youll achieve what these risk takers have achieved.But for as long as you want to stay safe， for as long as you are content with where your business is right now，you will never find out.
00:21:57 说话者2:
questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 22.What do entrepreneurs have to do when taking risks according to the passage？Question 23.What does the passage say is key to business growth？Question 24.What are we advised to do when we fail？Question 25.What does it mean to risk taking businesses when most people tend to avoid risk？

（一）对网课的看法
参考范文：
Online learning has become an option because it provides flexible learning opportunities. This method has ensured that students do not get left behind on their academic study, however, some problems have also emerged during the course.
Since online learning lacks interaction compared with face-to-face teaching, it requires more attention and concentration. Sometimes, students find it so demanding to keep concentrated, and finally turn to some irrelevant online resources instead of academic study. To make sure that they stay tuned, some monitoring software can be ordered to download to ensure they are not browsing other websites while taking online courses. The increasing time students spending in digital devices also pose problems to their health. Thus, schools should encourage their students to do regular exercises such as stretches and eye massages during the break, and some guiding handbooks can be a good start.
The advance of technology should not come with the cost of loosing its original purpose, so does remote study. So we should do our utmost in doing away its possible detriments to the young.
（二）人际关系
参考范文：
Friendship is an indispensable thing in our lives. On our long journey of life, we will encounter various people and make various friends. We should learn how to maintain good friendships with friends or classmates and experience the benefits that friendship brings to us.
In daily life, we can demonstrate the good character of being helpful when our friends or classmates encounter difficulties, and comfort them when they are feeling down. This is beneficial for maintaining friendship between both parties.
Having good friendships and getting along well and harmoniously with friends can help us achieve success in our studies. When encountering difficulties in learning, we can not only seek the help of teachers, but also seek the help of friends and classmates. Their answers are also the key to our success in learning. In addition, when encountering difficulties in life that you cannot solve, attentive and enthusiastic friends will also bring warmth to you, which will be something worth remembering for a lifetime.
In short, friendship is an essential thing in our lives, and with it, our path of life can be smoother.
（三）社区服务
参考范文：
Nowadays community service has been placed more importance in our society. As aging society and empty-nest elderly has been proliferating in the entire society, it calls for
community service to assist in tending to the elderly and pre-school children.
To ensure high-quality community service,relevant administrationshould take the lead in
putting forward regulations and order to promote a cooperating environment, so that the
community staff can better carry out their work, or engage more people to join their cause, for example, organizing voluntary team to help with caring for the elderly residents and pre-school children in the community. In this way, the community as a whole can enjoy a more
harmonious and secured rapport, which serves as the basis of any possible development.
Taking into account what has been mentioned, concerted efforts in the whole society are needed to promote the community’s ability to enhance their service.

一、四级作文部分：
Writing
Directions: Suppose you are writing a proposal to your school library about improving it s services, you are writing about its current problems and solutions.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I hope you are doing great! I am Li Ming, one of the sophomore students in our university. Following my recent experience of using our school library, I have decided to send you some feed-back. In the first place, the librarians there are not very friend-ly and helpful as they often fail to tell us where to find the book we want, and moreover get impatient easily. What’s more, the books available in the library are too old to catch up with the latest development of related disciplines. Finally, the reading rooms are not bright enough as some of the lights have gone dark. All these have brought great inconvenience to us students, which leaves me with no choice but to write you this letter.
From my perspective, it would be wise for you to offer all the librarians a training course to familiarize them with the layout of the library and the classifications of the books. If possible, I sincerely hope that you consider the possibility of renewing some of the books and maintaining the facilities properly.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Look forward to your favorable reply.
Warm regards,
Li Ming

四、四级翻译部分：
从前有个农夫嫌他种的禾苗长得慢，就到地里把禾苗一株株地拔高了一点。回家后他对家人说:“今天可真把我累坏了!但我总算让禾苗一下子长高了。”儿子到地里去一看，禾苗都已经死光了。
现在有些家长急于让孩子成功，往往步那个农夫的后尘，搞得孩子苦不堪言，却不见孩子学业长进。这样的'家长是否该对这个问题有所醒悟，让孩子自然成长呢?
Once upon a timea farmerwho felt unhappy with the slow growth of the seedlings went to the field and pulled them up a bit one by one.Returning home he told his family,“ am exhausted today! However I finally made those seed lings grow taller all at once.” His son hurried to the field only to find that the seedlings had died out.
Nowadays, some parents are so eager for their children’s success that they will repeat the tragedy of the farmer, making their kids suffer greatly and meanwhile seeing no progress of them Should such parents wake up to this reality and give their children space for natural growth?
历年英语四级答案 2
As is known to all, the organization and management of wages and salaries are very complex. Generally speaking, the Accounts Department is __1__ for calculations of pay, while the Personnel Department is interested in discussions with the employees about pay.
If a firm wants to __2__ a new wage and salary structure, it is essential that the firm should decide on a __3__ of job evaluation and ways of measuring the performance of its employees. In order to be __4__, that new pay structure will need agreement between Trade Unions and employers. In job evaluation, all of the requirements of each job are defined in a detailed job description. Each of thsoe requirements is given a value, usually in points, which are __5__ together to give a total value for the job. For middle and higher management, a special method is used to evaluate managers on their knowledge of the job, their responsibility, and their __6__ to solve problems. Because of the difficulty in measuring management work, however, job grades for managers are often decided without __7__ to an evaluation system based on points.
In attempting to design a pay system, the Personnel Department should __8__ the value of each job with these in the job market. __9__, payment for a job should vary with any differences in the way that the job is performed. Where it is simple to measure the work done, as in the works done with hands, monetary encouragement schemes are often chosen, for __10__ workers, where measurement is difficult, methods of additional payments are employed.
[A]compare
[B]responsible
[C]useful
[D]added
[E]find
[F]reference
[G]indirect
[H]method
[I]successful
[J]combined
[K]Necessarily
[L]capacity
[M]ability
[N]Basically
[O]adopt
【答案】
1.选B)。此处应填形容词。原文意思为“会计部门...计算报酬”，选项中的形容词responsible“负责任的”，useful“有用的”，indirect“间接的”，successful“成功的”，其中indirect不能与for连用，排除;剩余几项中只有B)responsible意义符合原句，其他均不符合，故排除。
2.选O)。此处应填动词原形。本文主题就是采用一种新的工资和薪水制度时需要注意的问题，选项中的动词原形有compare“比较”，find“找到”，adopt“采纳”，分别带入原文，只有adopt最符合原文意思，故选O).
3.选H)。此处应填名词。从原文看，and连接并列结构，所以要填的词应与and后面的ways意思一致，选项中的名词只有mathod = ways，故选H)method。
4.选I)。此处应填形容词。上文说新的工资制度需要一套决定工作评估和衡量雇员表现的方法，说的是制度“是否有用”的问题。这句说的时新的工资制度执行过程中的问题，劳资双方先期达成一致是薪酬制度成功的必要条件。形容词useful和successful，I)seccessful更符合原文意思。
5.选D)。此处应填动词。这个动词的宾语是point“分值”，把分值...起来to give a total value得出总分值，选项中有added和combined，前者指“把...相加”，后者意为“把...结合在一起”，原文指将分值相加得出总分，故D)added最符合文意。
6.选M)。此处应填名词。首先solve problem“解决问题”是经理们应具备的能力，选项中的capacity与ability都可以表示“能力”;前者强调的是理解的能力和接受事物的能力，而后者强调实际应用的能力，故不难判断解决问题的能力应该用M)ability。
7.选F)。此处应填名词。前半句指出“因为管理工作很难评估，经理的工作得分不需要参照基于分值的评估系统决定。”without reference to为固定搭配，意思是“与...无关”。故选F)reference。
8.选A)。此处应填动词原形。原句中出现了the value of each job“每种工作的价值”和these in the job market“工作市场上的`(工作价值)”，说明人事部门通过比较两种价值来计算工资制度。选项中只有compare表示“比较”，所以A)正确。
9.选K)。此处应填副词，修饰整句话。“报酬要随工作表现各方面的不同而有所改变”，选项中Necessarily“必须地”与Basically“基本地”为副词，分别带入原文，“报酬...的变化是必须的”更符合上下文意思，故排除N),选K)。
10.选G)。此处应填形容词。前文中提到一种情况即simple to measure the work done易于评估的工作，通常用现金奖励办法;而...measurement is difficult“难于评估的”，说明这些工作人员的工作不像手工工作那么直接，因而是间接的，故选项中只有G)indirect符合原句的意思。
