2014 年 6 月大学英语六级考试真题

Part I Writing

D i r e ct i o n s:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay explaining why it is unwise to jump to conclusions upon seeing or hearing something. You can give examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words. Write your essay on Answer Sheet 1.

Now it is widely believed that jumping to conclusions upon seeing or hearing something is unscientific and thoughtless. We do not have to look very far to find out the truth of this argument.

Sometimes what we see or hear is probably staying merely on the surface of things, thus the judgment we make under such circumstances often cannot hold water. For example, when a mother came to her son with two apples in her hand, she told her son to select one apple. The son quickly took one bite and then another before he gave his mother an apple. At first thought, we may regard this son as selfish and impious.

However, when we learn that the reason why the boy did this is just for the purpose of checking out which apple is tasty, and the apple he handed his mother is more delicious than the rest one, we should condemn ourselves with shame and regret.

To sum up, before making a judgment, we should have a deep analysis of the whole matter. Only in that way can we draw the correct conclusion.

Questions 36 to 45 a r e based on the following pa ss ag e.

Millions of Americans are entering their 60s and are more concerned than ever about retire-ment. They know they need to save, but how much? And what exactly are they saving for-to spend more time 36 N the grandkids, go travelling, or start another career? It turns out that husbands and wives may have 37 K different ideas about the subject.

The deepest divide is in the way spouses envisage their lifestyle in their later years. Fidelity In- vestments Inc. found 41 percent of the 500 couples it surveyed 38 C on whether both or at least one spouse will work in retirement. Wives are generally right regarding their husbands’retirement age, but men 39 O the age their wives will be when they stop working. And husbands are slightly more 40 I about their standard of living than wives are.

Busy juggling (穷于应付)careers and families, most couples don’t take the time to sit down, 41M or together, and think about what they would like to do 5, 10, or 20 years from now. They 42 A they are on the same page, but the 43 L is they have avoided even talking about it.

If you are self-employed or in a job that doesn’t have a standard retirement age, you may be more apt to delay thinking about these issues. It is often a 44 E retirement date that provides the c at-a lyst (催化剂)to start planning. Getting laid off or accepting an early-retirement 45 J can force your hand. But don’t wait until you get a severance (遣散费) check to begin planning.

S e ct i o n B

What If Middle-Class J o b s D i s a ppe a r?

A) The most recent recession in the United States began in December of 2007 and ended in June of

2009, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research. However, two years after the of- ficial end of the recession, few Americans would say that economic troubles are behind us. The unemployment rate, in particular, remains above 9%. Some labour market indicators, such as the proportion of long-term unemployed, are worse now than for any post-war recession.

B) There are two widely circulated narratives to explain what’s going on. The Keynesian narrative

is that there has been a major drop in aggregate demand. According to this narrative, the slump can be largely cured by using monetary and fiscal (财政的) stimulus. The main anti-Keynesian narrative is that businesses are suffering from uncertainty and over-regulation. According to this narrative, the slump can be cured by having the government commit to and follow a more

hands-off approach.

C)I want to suggest a third interpretation. Without ruling out a role for aggregate demand or for the

regulatory environment, I wish to suggest that structural change is an important factor in the cur- rent rate of high unemployment. The economy is in a state of transition, in which the mid-dle-class jobs that emerged after World War II have begun to decline. As Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee put it in a recent e-book Race Against the Machine: “The root of our problems is not that we’re in a great recession, or a great stagnation (停滞), but rather that we are in the early throes (阵痛) of a great restructuring.”

D) In fact, I believe that the Great Depression of the 1930s can also be interpreted in part as an eco-nomic

transition. The impact of the internal combustionengine (内燃机) and the small electric motor on farming and manufacturing reduced the value of uneducated labourers. Instead, by the 1950s, a middle class of largely clerical (从事文秘工作的)workers was the most significant part of the labour force. Between 1930 and 1950, the United States economy underwent a Great Transition. Demand fell for human effort such as lifting, squeezing, and hammering. Demand in- creased for workers who could read and follow directions. The evolutionary process eventually changed us from a nation of labourers to a nation of clerks.

E) The proportion of employment classified as “clerical workers” grew from 5.2% in 1910 to a peak of 19.3

percent in 1980. “However, by 2000 this proportion had edged down to 17.4 %”Over- all, workers classified as clerical workers, technical workers, managers, officials exceeded 50% of the labour force by 2000. Corresponding declines took place in the manual occupations. Workers classified as labourers, other than farm hands or miners, peaked at 11.4% of the labour force in 1920 but were barely 6% by 1950 and less than 4% by 2000. Farmers and farm labourers fell from 33% of the labour force in 1910 to less than 15% by 1950 and only 1.2% in 2000.

F)The introduction of the tractor and improvements in the factory rapidly reduced the demand for

uneducated workers. By the 1930s, a marginal farm hand could not produce enough to justify his employment. Sharecropping, never much better than a subsistence occupation, was no longer visable ( 可行的). Meanwhile, machines were replacing manufacturing occupations like cigar rolling and glass blowing for light bulbs.

G)The structural-transition interpretation of the unemployment problem of the 1930s would be that the

demand for uneducated workers in the United States had fallen, but the supply remained high. The high school graduation rate was only 8.8% in 1912 and still just 29% in 1931. By 1950, it had reached 59% . With a new generation of workers who had completed high school, the mismatch between skills and jobs had been greatly reduced.

H) What took place after the Second World War was not the revival of a 1920s economy, with its small

farming units, urban manufacturing, and plurality of labourers. Instead, the 1950s saw the creation of a new suburban economy, with a plurality of white-collar workers. With an expanded transportation and communications infrastructure (基础设施), businesses needed telephone op-erators, shipping clerks, and similar occupations. If you could read, follow simple instructions, and settle into a routine, you could find

a jo

b in the post-war economy.

I)The trend away from manual labour has continued. Even within the manufacturing sector, the share

of production and non-supervisory workers in manufacturing employment went from over 85% just after the Second World War to less than 70% in more recent years. To put this another way, the proportion of white-collar work in manufacturing has doubled over the past 50 years. On the factory floor itself, work has become less physically demanding. Instead, it requires more cognitive skills and the ability to understand and carry out well-defined procedures.

J)As noted earlier, the proportion of clerical workers in the economy peaked in 1980. By that date, computers and advanced communications equipment had already begun to affect telephone oper- ations and banking. The rise of the personal computer and the Internet has widened the impact of these technologies to include nearly every business and industry.

K) The economy today differs from that of a generation ago. Mortgage and consumer loan und er-writers (风险评估人)have been replaced by credit scoring. Record stores have been replaced by music downloads. Book stores are closing, while sales of books on electronic readers have in- creased. Data entry has been moved off shore. Routine customer support also has been out- s ourced (外包) overseas.

L） These trends serve to limit the availability of well-defined jobs. If a job can be characterized by a precise set of instructions, then that job is a candidate to be automated or outsourced to modestly educated workers in developing countries. The result is what David Autor calls the polarization of the American job market.

M）Using the latest Census Bureau data, Matthew Slaughter found that from 2000 to 2010 the real earnings of college graduates （with no advanced degree）fell by more in percentage terms than the earnings of high school graduates. In fact, over this period the only education category to show an increase in earnings was those with advanced degrees.

N)The outlook for mid-skill jobs would not appear to be bright. Communication technology and computer intelligence continue to improve, putting more occupations at risk. For example, many people earn a living as drivers, including trucks and taxicabs. However, the age of driver-less ve- hicles appears to be moving closer. Another example is in the field of education. In the fall of 2011, an experiment with an online course in artificial intelligence conducted by two Stanford professors drew tens of thousands of registrants (报名者). This increases the student-teacher ra-tio by a factor of close to a thousand. Imagine the number of teaching jobs that might be elimi- nated if this could be done for math, economics, chemistry, and so on.

O) It’s important to bear in mind that when we offer a structural interpretation of unemployment, a “loss of jobs”means an increase in productivity. Traditionally, economists have argued that pro- ductivity increases are a good thing, even though they may cause unemployment for some work- ers in the short run. In the long run, the economy does not run out of jobs. Rather, new jobs e- merge as old jobs disappear. The story we tell is that average well-being rises, and the more that people are able to adapt, the more widespread the improvement becomes.

Passage O ne

Questions 56 to 60 a r e based on the following pa ss a g e.

“Deep reading”-as opposed to the often superficial reading we do on the Web-is an endan- gered practice, one we ought to take steps to preserve as we would a historic building or a significant work of art.

Its disappearance would jeopardize the intellectual and emotional development of gener- ations growing up online, as well as the preservation of a critical part of our culture: the novels, po-ems and other kinds of literature that can be appreciated only by readers whose brains, quite literally, have been trained to apprehend them.

Recent research in cognitive science and psychology has demonstrated that deep reading-slow, immersive, rich in sensory detail and emotional and moral complexity is a distinctive experi- ence, different in kind from the mere decoding of words. Although deep reading does not, strictly speaking, require a conventional book, the built-in limits of the printed page are uniquely helpful to the deep reading experience. A book’s lack of hyperlinks “超链接”, for example, frees the reader from making decisions. Should I click on this link or not?-allowing her to remain fully immersed in the narrative.

That immersion is supported by the way the brain handles language rich in detail, indirect refer- ence and figures of speech: by creating a mental representation that draws on the same brain regions that would be active if the scene were unfolding in real life. The emotional situations and moral dilemmas that are the stuff of literature are also vigorous exercise for the brain, propelling us inside the heads of fictional characters and even, studies suggest, increasing our real-life capacity for empathy(认同).

None of this is likely to happen when we’re browsing through a website. Although we call the activity by the same name, the deep reading of books and the information-driven reading we do on the Web are very different, both in the experience they produce and in the capacities they develop. A growing

body of evidence suggests that online reading may be less engaging and less satisfying, even for the “digital natives”for whom it is so familiar. Last month, for example, Britain’s National Lit-eracy Trust released the results of a study of 34,910 young people aged 8 to 16. Researchers reported that 39% of children and teens read daily using electronic devices, but only 28% read printed materi- als every day. Those who read only onscreen were three times less likely to say they enjoy reading very much and a third less likely to have a favorite book. The study also found that young people who read daily only onscreen were nearly two times less likely to be above-average readers than those who read daily in print or both in print and onscreen.

56. What does the author say about”deep reading’?

A) It serves as a complement to online reading.

B) It should be preserved before it is too late.

C) It is mainly suitable for reading literature.

D) It is an indispensable part of education.

57. Why does the author advocate the reading of literature?

A) It helps promote readers’ intellectual and emotional growth.

B) It enables readers to appreciate the complexity of language.

C)It helps readers build up immersive reading habits.

D) It is quickly becoming an endangered practice.

58. In what way does printed-page reading differ from online reading?

A) It ensures the reade r’s cognitive growth.

B) It enables the reader to be fully engaged.

C） It activates a different region of the brain.

D) It helps the reader learn rhetorical devices.

59. What do the studies show about online reading?

A) It gradually impairs one’s eyesight.

B) It keeps arousing readers’ curiosity.

C) It provides up-to-date information.

D) It renders reading less enjoyable.

60. What do we learn from the study released by Britain’s National Literacy Turst?

A) Onscreen readers may be less competent readers.

B) Those who do reading in print are less informed.

C) Young people find reading onscreen more enjoyable.

D) It is now easier to find a favourite book online to read.

Passage T wo

Questions 61 to 65 a r e based on the following pa ss a g e.

Many current discussions of immigration issues talk about immigrants in general, as if they were abstract people in an abstract world. But the concrete differences between immigrants from dif- ferent countries affect whether their coming here is good or bad for the American people.

The very thought of formulating immigration laws from the standpoint of what is best for the American people seems to have been forgotten by many who focus on how to solve the problems of illegal immigrants.

It is hard to look for “the ideal outcome” on immigration in the abstract. Economics Professor

Milton Friedman once said, “The best is the enemy of the goo d”which to me meant that attempts to achieve an unattainable ideal can prevent us from reaching good outcomes that are possible in prac- tice.

Too much of our current immigration controversy is conducted in terms of abstract ideals, such as “We are a nation of immigrants.”Of course we are a nation of immigrants. But we are also a na-tion of people who wear shoes. Does it follow that we should admit anybody who wears shoes?

The immigrants of today are very different in many ways from those who arrived here a hun- dred years ago. Moreover, the society in which they arrive is different. To me, it is better to build a wall around the welfare state than the country.

But the welfare state is already here-and, far from having a wall built around it, the welfare state is expanding in all directions. We do not have a choice between the welfare state and open bor- ders. Anything we try to do as regards immigration laws has to be done in the context of a huge wel- fare state that is already a major, inescapable fact of life.

Among other facts of life utterly ignored by many advocates of de facto amnesty (事实上的大赦) is that the free international movement of people is different from free international trade in goods.

Buying cars or cameras from other countries is not the same as admitting people from those countries or any other countries. Unlike inanimate objects, people have cultures and not all cultures are compatible with the culture in this country that has produced such benefits for the American peo- ple for so long.

Not only the United States, but the Western world in general, has been discovering the hard way that admitting people with incompatible cultures is an irreversible decision with incalculable consequences. If we do not see that after recent terrorist attacks on the streets of Boston and London, when will we see it?

“Comprehensive immigration reform”means doing everything all together in a rush, without time to look before we leap, and basing ourselves on abstract notions about abstract people.

61. What does the author say about immigrants in America?

A) They all hope to gain citizenship and enjoy the welfare.

B) They come to America with different dreams and purposes.

C) Their background may determine whether they benefit the American people.

D) Their cultures affect the extent to which they will achieve success in America.

62. What does the author try to say by citing Milton Friedman’s remark?

A) It is hardly practical to find an ideal solution to America’s immigration problem.

B) Ideal outcomes could be produced only by comprehensive immigration reform.

C) As for immigration, good results cannot be achieved without good intentions.

D) The proper solution of immigration issues is an ideal of the American public.

63. What is the author’s view regarding America’s immigration policy?

A) America should open its borders to immigrants from different countries.

B) Immigrants have contributed greatly to the welfare of American people.

C) Unrestricted immigration will undermine the American welfare state.

D) There is no point building a wall around the American welfare state.

64. What is the author;s purpose in citing the recent terrorist attacks on the streets of Boston and London?

A) To show that America should join hands with Europe in fighting terrorists.

B) To prove that it is high time America made comprehensive immigration reforms.

C) To prove that terrorism is the most dangerous threat to America and the world in general.

D) To show that immigrants’ cultural incompatibility with the host country has consequences.

65. What is the author”s attitude towards :comprehensive immigration reform”?

A) Supportive. B) Negative.

C) Wait-and-see. D) Indifferent.

中文热词通常反映社会变化和文化袁有些在外国媒体上愈来愈流行。例如土豪（tuhao）和大妈（dama）都是老词，但已获取了新的意义。土豪以前指欺压佃户和仆人的乡村地主，现在用于指花钱如流水或喜欢炫耀财富的人，也就是说，土豪有钱，但没有品位。大妈是对中年妇女的称呼，但现在特指不久前金价大跌时大量购买黄金的中国妇女，土豪和大妈可能会被收入新版牛津”Oxford”英语词典，至今已约有 120 个中文词被加进了牛津英语词典成了英语语言的一部分

Chinese hot words usually reflect social changes and culture. Some are increasingly used among foreign media. For example, tuhao and dama are old words， but both of them acquire different new meanings. Previously, tuhao referred to rural landlords oppressing their tenants and servants, while nowadays it means those who spend money without restraint or who like to show off. In other words, tuhao are wealthy but have no taste. Dama was used to describe middle-aged women. Nowdays however, it refers in particular to those Chinese women who purchased a large amount of gold when the gold price had a large drop. The words tuhao and dama might be included in the new version of Oxford English dictionary. Up till now, about 120 words have been added to the dictio- nary, becoming a part of English language.

Into the Unknown The world has never seen population ageing before. Can it cope? Until the early 1990s nobody much thought about whole populations getting older. The UN had the foresight to convene a “world assembly on ageing” back in 1982, but that came and went. By 1994 the World Bank had noticed that something big was happening. In a report entitled “Averting the Old Age Crisis”, it argued that pension arrangements in most countries were unsustainable. For the next ten years a succession of books, mainly by Americans, sounded the alarm. They had titles like Young vs Old, Gray Dawn and The Coming Generational Storm, and their message was blunt: health-care systems were heading for the rocks, pensioners were taking young people to the cleaners, and soon there would be intergenerational warfare.

Conversation One M: And now, for the latter side of the news, Europe is setting an example for the rest of the world when it comes to food waste. W: That’s right, John. This week, the Italian government passed legislation that aims to dramatically reduce the amount of food waste in the country. Q1:New laws have been put into place that will make it easier for farms and supermarkets to donate and sell foods to those who are in need. M: Yes, in an addition to this, businesses will now be rewarded for successful efforts to cut food waste. W: Italy is not the only country to focus on reducing food waste. Just earlier this year, Q2:the European parliament voted in favor of legislation that would stop grocery giants from unfair trading practices that result in overproduction, thus creating waste. M: In France, Q3:the government has banned supermarkets from throwing away edible foods and imposed harsh penalties on businesses that fail to comply with the regulations. W: While there is still much progress to be made, other countries could learn a thing or two from the example set by France and Italy. In the United Sates, up to 40% of all food goes uneaten. Despite the fact that one in seven American households lacks regular access to good food, Q4:one major cause of this problem is the confusion over food expiration labels, which are currently not regulated by the government.

2017年6月大学英语六级考试真题第一套试卷及答案

2017年6月大学英语六级真题试卷及答案 （一） Part I Writing (30 minutes) (请于正式开考后半小时内完成该部分，之后将进行听力考试) Directions:Suppose you are asked to give advice on whether to attend a vocational college or a university, write an essay to state your opinion. You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words. 【参考范文】 Whether to Attend a Vocational College or a University? It’s an undisputable truth that virtually all high school graduates will encounter the choices between a vocational college and a university. And when it comes to this question, students’ ideas are not cut from the same cloth. In point of which to choose and what to be taken into consideration, my advices are as follow. In the first place, we should be conscious of the fact that both of the two choices have its own superiorities. For instance, a vocational college specializes in cultivating human resources with practical capabilities; while a university serves as the cradle of academic researchers in different fields. Then it does follow that high school graduates should have a clear picture of themselves. That is to say, they should know their merits and demerits and their choices must give play to their strengths whilst circumvent weaknesses. In addition, interest is the best teacher and it’s also the premise of learning on one’s own initiative. Thus interest must be taken into account because it can not only decide how far one can reach academically and professionally but also how happy and fulfilled one will be. In brief, all above just goes to show that there really is no one-size-fits-all answer for the question. The key lies in a clear cognition, accurate self-positioning and the interest of oneself. Only then can every one find a right path that works best for us. Part II Listening Comprehension (30 minutes)
