Features: This book has the following main features:
1. Based on the newly released sample questions for the College English Test Band 4 (CET-4), it strives to objectively and comprehensively reflect the requirements specified in the exam. The difficulty level is moderate, the question types are the same, and the vocabulary is strictly controlled within the scope of the exam syllabus. Each individual test is designed to closely align with the sample questions, providing candidates with a relatively authentic simulation of the actual exam.
2. This book primarily focuses on practical exercises for the new question types of the exam. Considering the changes in CET-4 question formats and the exam's key areas, the test collection includes all the exam components in the sample questions: (1) Short dialogues, long dialogues, short passage comprehension, short passage dictation; (2) Passage reading comprehension, passage vocabulary understanding, fast reading comprehension; (3) Cloze or error correction; (4) Chinese-to-English translation; (5) Short passage writing, so that candidates can conduct more comprehensive pre-exam practice and self-assessment.
3. In terms of the content of the simulated test collection, we pay special attention to the breadth and novelty of the material selection. Most of the materials are selected from books, periodicals, and exam questions published domestically and internationally in recent years, and have been appropriately modified and processed according to the requirements of the new CET-4 question types. The selected materials cover cultural education, social life, historical biographies, local customs, popular science, current affairs, and economics.
4. Based on the material selection and writing process, we emphasize the standardization of the language materials and the coherence of the content. While ensuring comprehensive coverage of vocabulary and grammar items and the difficulty level of the reading passages, we avoid overly difficult or unusual questions.
5. Considering that this book is a test collection primarily focused on simulated exams, we strive to provide clear and accurate answers with necessary explanations after each set of questions. The writing and translation tasks are accompanied by model answers and English translations for reference and self-checking.
6. Experienced foreign teachers were selected to record the listening comprehension section, which greatly ensures the clarity and quality of the recordings, with a speed closely matching that of the sample questions.
