Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-4, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 5-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Stress （PP.1-3）This may come as a surprise, but you need stress in your life. Leading stress management experts say that without stress would be dull and unexciting. Stress adds flavor, challenge, and opportunity to life. However, too much stress can seriously affect your physical and mental well-being. A major challenge in today’s stress-filled world is to make the stress in your life work for you instead of against you.In today’s hectic, fast-paced world and with the blooming economy, stress is our constant companion. It comes from mental or emotional activity and physical activity. Too much emotional stress can result in physical illness, such as high blood pressure, ulcers, asthma, irritable colon, headaches, or even heart disease. On the other hand,physical stress from work or exercise rarely causes such ailments. In fact, physical exercise can help you to relax and to handle your mental or emotional stress.Hans Selye, M.D., a recognized expert in the field, has defined stress as a “nonspecific response of the body to a demand”. The key to reducing stress is learning how our bodies respond to those demands. When stress becomes prolonged or particularly frustrating, it can become harmful-causing distress or “bad stress”. Recognizing the early signs of distress and then doing something about them can make a significant difference in the quality of your life.In order to use stress in a positive way and prevent it from becoming distress, you should be aware of your own reactions to stressful events. The body responds to stress by going through specific stages: (1) alarm, (2) resistance, (3) exhaustion. Muscles tense, blood pressure and heart rate rise, and adrenaline and other stress-triggered hormones that increase the level of alertness are released. If the stress-causing conditions continue, your body will need time to make repairs, if that happens, you eventually may develop a physical problem that is related to stress, such as migraine headaches, high blood pressure, backache, or insomnia. That’s why when stress occurs it’s important that you recognize and deal with it in a positive way. While it’s impossible to live completely free of stress and distress, it is possible to prevent some distress as well as to minimize is impact when it can’t be avoided. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to handle stress.Try Physical ActivityWhen you’re nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity. Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try. Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you relax. Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.Share Your StressIt helps to talk with someone about your anxieties and worries. Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher, or counselor can help you achieve a more positiveperspective on what’s troubling you. It you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist, psychiatrist or social worker. Knowing when to ask for help is a positive step in avoiding more serious problems later.Take Care of YourselfYou should make every effort to eat well and to get enough rest. If you’re irritable and tense from lack of sleep, or if you’re not eating properly, you’ll be more vulnerable to stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult your doctor.Make Time for YourselfSchedule time for both work and reaction. Don’t forget, play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.Make a List of the Things You Need to DoStress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there’s so much to do, and not enough time”. Trying to take care of everything at once can be overwhelming, and as a result, you may not accomplish anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Give priority to the most important tasks and do those first.Go Ahead and CryA good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety. It might even help you avoid headache or other physical consequence of anxiety and stress.Create a Quiet SceneYou can’t always run away, but you can allow yourself a mental “get-away”. A quiet country scene painted mentally, or on canvas, can transport you from the tension of a stressful situation to a more relaxing frame of mind. You also can create a sense of peace and tranquility by reading a good book or listening to beautiful music.Avoid Self-MedicationWhile you can use prescription or over-the-counter medications to relieve stress temporarily, they do not remove the conditions that caused the stress in the first place.In fact, many medications may be habit-forming and also may reduce your efficiency, thus creating more stress than they eliminate. They should be taken only on the advice of your doctor.RelaxThe best strategy for reducing or avoiding stress altogether is to learn how to relax. Unfortunately, many people try to relax at the same pace that they lead the rest of their lives. That doesn't work. Instead, try tuning out your worries about time, productivity and "doing right". Here are several relaxation techniques you may find helpful:--You should take a deep breath and exhale to help calm your mind, counter your body's natural stress reaction and improve your response.--You should laugh. Many stress management experts advocate laughter as a relaxation technique for relieving tension.--You should take a warm bath or shower. Whether you prefer bubble baths or long hot showers, this is an excellent way to relax after a stressful day.--You should try progressive muscle relaxation. Individual contract and relax each muscle group of your body. Begin by tensing your toes for 10 seconds, then relax them for 20.Work all the way up your body, alternately tensing and relaxing, and finish with your facial muscles.By learning the "art" of relaxation, you’ll find satisfaction in just "being", without trying or striving. Your focus on relaxation, enjoyment and health will reduce stress, anxiety and worry in your life. The result is, you will be calmer, healthier and happier.注意：此部分试题在答题卡1上作答。

Model Test FourPart ⅠWriting (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled The Popularity of Getting Certificates on Campus. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below.3.考证面前，我的选择The Popularity of Getting Certificates on CampusPart ⅡReading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1.For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Guide DogsFor most dog owners, the expression “work like a dog”doesn’t make much sense. But some dogs happily perform very demanding jobs for much of their life, putting in a full day’s work just like the rest of us. Guide dogs, one of the most familiar sorts of working dog, provide an invaluable service to humans. Every day, they help their masters get from place to place more safely.What Guide Dogs DoGuide dogs help blind or visually impaired people get around in the world. In most countries, they are allowed to anyplace where the public is allowed, so they can help their handlers be in any place they might want to go to. To do this, a guide dog must know how to:·Keep on a direct route, ignoring distractions such as smells, other animals and people·Maintain a steady pace, to the left and just ahead of the handler·Stop at all curbs until told to proceed·Turn left and right, move forward and stop on command·Recognize and avoid obstacles that the handler won’t be able to fit through (narrow passages and low overheads) ·Stop at the bottom and top of stairs until told to proceed·Bring the handler to elevator buttons·Lie quietly when the handler is sitting down·Help the handler to board and move around buses, subways and other forms of public Vehicles·Obey a number of verbal commandsAdditionally, a guide dog must know to disobey any command that would put the handler in danger. This ability, called selective disobedience, is perhaps the most amazing thing about guide dogs that they can balance obedience with their own assessment of the situation.This capacity is extremely important at crosswalks, where the handler and dog must work very closely together to navigate the situation safely. Dogs cannot distinguish the color of traffic lights, so the handler must make the decision of when it is safe to proceed across the road. The handler listens to the flow of traffic to figure out when the light has changed and then gives the command “forward”. If there is no danger, the dog proceeds across the road in a straight line. If there are cars approaching, the dog waits until the danger is gone and then follows the forward command.On the Job and After HoursGuide dogs enjoy their work immensely, and they get a lot of satisfaction from a job well done, but there is noroom for typical dog fun during the work day. Games, treats and praise cannot distract the dog from helping its handler navigate the course. Even when the handler doesn’t need assistance, a guide dog on the job is trained to ignore distractions and keep still. This is because a guide dog must be able to come to the handler’s workplace or be in public places without creating a disturbance.When you see a guide dog on the job, it is extremely important that you recognize that it is at work. Petting or talking to the dog breaks its concentration, which impairs the handler’s ability to get around in his or her surroundings. People are very impressed with guide dogs and so we have a natural inclination to praise them, but the best thing you can do to help a guide dog is to leave it alone so that it can pay attention to its surroundings and maintain its focus on its handler. Guiding is very complicated, and it requires a dog’s undivided attention.When a guide dog gets home at the end of the day, however, it will play and soak up praise just like an ordinary pet. Guide dogs make the distinction between work and play based on their lead harness: When the harness is on, they must stay completely focused; when it comes off, it’s play time. Guide dogs work very hard every day, but they lead extremely happy lives, full of lots of attention and stimulation. Dogs only end up working as guide dogs if they absolutely love the work. In fact, many handlers report that their dogs leap enthusiastically into the harness every morning!TrainingPeople often raise Golden Retrievers(猎犬),German shepherds or Labradors(拉布拉多猎狗) as candidates of guide dogs. Once a dog is grown up, socialized and well trained, it goes to the guide dog school for evaluation.In some schools, if a dog is suited for training but not quite ready, it may go back to the puppy(幼犬) raiser for a month or so to mature. If a dog is simply not suited for training, the school will work to place the dog in another line of work, such as tracking, or find it a permanent home, usually offering it to the puppy raiser first. At Guiding Eyes for the Blind, only the top 50 percent of the puppies will stay with the school. So the school places a little over 400 puppies with raisers each year, needing only 200 dogs for the training program. Of that 200,a small percentage will become breeding stock, for Guiding Eyes or another school, and the rest will be considered for the training program.Training is a rigorous process for both the instructors and the dogs, but it’s also a lot of fun. To make sure the dogs are up to the challenge, most schools test them extensively before beginning the training. The tests are designed to assess the dogs’ self-confidence level, since only extremely confident dogs will be able to deal with the pressure of guiding instruction. If a dog passes the tests, it begins the training program right away.Different schools have different programs, but typically, training will last four to five months. To make sure the dogs master all the complex guide skills, the instructors have to introduce them to each idea gradually. Once they have introduced what is expected of the dog, training is essentially a matter of rewarding correct performance and punishing incorrect performance. This works with dogs because they are pack animals and have a natural need to please an authority figure. The instructor, or later the handler, is simply stepping into the place of the alpha dog, the leader of the pack.Unlike ordinary obedience training, guide dog training does not use food as a reward for good performance. This is because a guide dog must be able to work around food without being distracted by it. Instead, instructors use praise or other reward systems to encourage correct performance. The standard means of correction is pulling on the dogs leash, so that it pulls a training collar, giving the dog a slight pinch(捏，掐).Using this basic reward/punishment system, instructors work through the necessary skills for guiding.Forming a TeamThe final stage of a guide dog’s training is learning to work with its new master. Guide dog training schools work very hard to match handlers with guide dogs according to the compatibility of their personalities. A very energetic dog typically does well with a young handler, while an older handler may need an especially careful partner. Schools often have a special gathering to commemorate the time when a new class of guide dogs finally meets their masters. Often, the dogs’puppy raiser attends and meets with the new master as well. This is perhaps the most emotional time in the entire training process.After this introduction, guide dog instructors typically spend a month helping the new team learn to worktogether. Many schools have dormitories for the handlers to stay in during this final stage of training.If the handler has never used a guide dog before, a lot of the instructors work at this point are actually people training, not dog training. The handler has to learn to read the dogs movements, so he or she knows when the dog is turning or when the dog is stopping for a crosswalk or stairs. Additionally, the handler has to learn all the commands the dog knows, and must get some practice walking with the dog. The dog has to make the transition from obeying the instructor to recognizing the handler as its new master. The handler and the dog spend a lot of this time just getting to know each other, so that they are comfortable enough to work as a team. By the time they graduate from the guide dog school, they can read each others every movement.1. When a handler and a guide dog walk on the street__b______, .A) the handler must walk straight B) the dog must try to walk straightC) both the handler and the dog should walk straight D) neither of them has to walk straight2. Like other dogs, guide dogs d any command from the handler.A) are supposed to ignore B) are not supposed to ignoreC) are supposed to obey D) are not supposed to obey3.Which of the following statements is not true?cA) The handler and the dog must work very closely together.B) Dogs cannot distinguish the color of traffic lights.C) If there is any danger at crosswalks, a guide dog should notify the handler.D) If there is no danger, the dog proceeds across the road in a straight line.4.

When you see a guide dog work very well, the best thing you can do for it is to c .A) praise it B) reward it C) leave it alone D) feed it6. A guide dog tells the time of play apart from that of work by b .A) the handler’s command B) its lead harnessC) the handler’s whistle D) its instinct7. When a puppy dog grows up, it is evaluated at the guide dog school to see d .A) if it is suited for guiding B) if it is ready for guidingC) if it is suited for breeding D) if it is suited for training8. Different from ordinary obedience training, guide dog training introduces praise or other reward systems instead of food .9. At the end of training, the guide dog school will make sure that the dogs work well with its new masters .10. Before graduation, the handler and the guide dog should spend time learning to read each other's every movement .Part ⅢListening Comprehension (35 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

In recent years, social media has become increasingly popular and widely used. It has had a significant impact on both individuals and society.Firstly, social media has greatly influenced personal lives. People can now easily connect with friends and family, no matter the distance between them. They can share their thoughts, photos, and videos instantly, which enhances communication and strengthens relationships. However, excessive reliance on social media can also lead to a sense of isolation and addiction. Many people find themselves spending too much time scrolling through social media feeds, neglecting real-life interactions.Secondly, social media has revolutionized social communication. It provides a platform for people to express their opinions and raise awarenessabout important issues. Social media plays a pivotal role in sparking social movements and promoting activism. Furthermore, businesses and organizations utilize social media to connect with their audience and advertise their products or services.In my opinion, social media is a double-edged sword. While it brings convenience and opportunities for connection, it also poses risks to personal privacy and mental health. It is crucial for individuals to maintain a balanced and healthy relationship with social media, using it as a tool to enhance their lives rather than as a substitute for real-life interactions. Meanwhile, society should also be aware of the negative impacts of social media and take measures to ensure its responsible use.Overall, the influence of social media is undeniable. It has changed the way we communicate, share information, and view the world. As users of social media, we should embrace its benefits while being mindful of its potential drawbacks.。
大学英语六级模拟题及答案解析
大学英语六级模拟题及答案解析Part ⅡReading Comprehension (35 minutes)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.?Passage 1Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:?In a sense, the new protectionism is not protectionism at all, at least not in the traditional sense of the term. The old protectionism referred only to trade restricting and trade expanding devices, such as the tariff or export subsidy. The new protectionism is much broader than this: it includes interventions into foreign trade but is not limited to them. The new protectionism, in fact, refers to how the whole of government intervention into the private economy affects international trade. The emphasis on trade is still there, thus came the term “protection.” But what is new is the realization that virtually all government activities can affect international economic relations.?The emergence of the new protectionism in the Western world reflects the victory of the interventionist, or welfare economy over the market economy. Jab Tumiler writes, “The old protectionism…coexisted, without any apparent intellectual difficulty with the acceptance of the market as a national as well as an international economic distribution mechanism — indeed, protectionists as well as (if not more than) free traders stood for laissez faire(放任政策). Now, as in the 1930s, protectionism is anexpression of a profound skepticism as to the ability of the market to distribute resources and incomes to societies satisfaction.”?It is precisely this profound skepticism of the market economy that is responsible for the protectionism. In a market economy, economic change of various colorsimplies redistribution of resources and incomes. The same opinion in many communities apparently is that such redistributions often are not proper. Therefore, the government intervenes to bring about a more desired result.?The victory of the welfare state is almost complete in northern Europe. In Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and the Netherlands, government intervention in almost all aspects of economic and social life is considered normal. In Great Brita in this is only somewhat less true. Government traditionally has played a very active role in economic life in France and continued to do so. Only West Germany dares to go against the tide towards excessive interventionism in Western Europe. It also happens to be the most successful Western European economy.?The welfare state has made significant progress in the United States as well as in Western Europe. Social security, unemployment insurance, minimum wage laws, and rent control are by now traditional welfare state elements on the American scene. ?11.This passage is primarily concerned with discussing ____.?A) the definition of the new protectionism?B) the difference between new and old protectionism?C) the emergence of the new protectionism in the Western world?D) the significance of the welfare state?12.What does the phrase “stood for(Para.2)” mean??A) represented. B) held out. ?C) tolerated. D) disapproved. ?13.Which of the following statements is NOT a characteristic of a welfare state mentioned in this passage??A) Free education is available to a child.B) Laws are made to fix the minimum wage.?C) A jobless person can be insured.D) There are regulations for rent.?14.Which of the following inferences is true, according to this passage?A) The economy developed faster in welfare states than in non-welfare states.?B) In the 1930s, protectionism began to rise.?C) The new protectionism is so called mainly because it is the latest.?D) Government plays a more active role in economic life in Northern Europe than in Great Britain.?15.The passage supplies information for answering which of the following questions??A) When did the new protectionism arise??B) Why is the new protectionism so popular in northern European countries??C) Does the American government play a more active role in economic life than the British government??D) Why does the government intervene in economic lifePassage 2 ?Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:?When I was growing up, the whole world was Jewish. The heroes were Jewish and the villains were Jewish. The landlord, the doctor, the grocer, your best friend, the village idiot, and theneighborhood bully: all Jewish. We were working class and immigrants as well, but that just come with the territory. Essentially we were Jews on the streets of New York. We learned to be kind, cruel, and smart and feeling in a mixture of language and gesture that was part street slang, part grade-school English, part kitchen Yiddish.?One Sunday evening when I was eight years old my parents and I were riding in the back seat of my rich uncle’s car. We had been out for a ride and now we were back in the Bronx, headed for home. Suddenly, another car sideswiped us. My mother and aunt shrieked. My uncle swore softly. My father, in whose lap I was sitting, said out the window at the speeding car, “That’s all right. Nothing but a few Jews in here.” In an instant I knew everything. I knew there was a world beyond our streets, and in that world my father was a humiliated man, without power or standing.?When I was sixteen a girl in the next building had her nose straightened; we all went together to see Selma Shapiro lying in state, wrapped in bandages from which would emerge a person fit for life beyond the block. Three buildings away a boy went downtown for a job, and on his application he wrote “Anold Brown” instead of “Anold Braunowiitz.” The news swept through the neighborhood like a wild fire. A name change? What was happening here? It was awful; it was wonderful. It was frightening; it was delicious. Whatever it was, it wasn’t standstill.Thing felt lively and active. Self-confidence was on the rise, passivity on the wane. We were going to experience challenges. That’s what it meant to be in the new world. For the first time we could imagine ourselves out there.?But whom exactly do I mean when I say we? I mean Arinie, not Selma. I mean mybrother, not me. I mean the boys, not the girls. My mother stood behind me, pushing me forward. “The girls goes to college, too,” she said. And I did. But my going to college would not mean the same thing as my brother’s going to college, and we all knew it. For my brother, college meant going from the Bronx to Manhattan. But for me? From the time I was fourteen I yearned to get out of the Bronx, but get out into what? I did not actually imagine myself a working person alone in Manhattan and nobody else did either. What I did imagine was that I would marry, and that the man I married would get me downtown. He would break the perils of class and race, and some how I’d be there alongside him.?16.In the passage, we can find the author was____.?A) quite satisfied with her life?B) a poor Jewish girl?C) born in a middle-class family?D) a resident in a rich area in New York?17.Why did the author’s father say “Nothing but a few Jews in here”?A) He was asking for help.?B) He was complaining.?C) He was reassuring.?D) He wanted to know why their car was sideswiped.?18.Selma Shapiro had her nose straightened because she wanted ____.?A) to look her best?B) to find a new job in the neighborhood?C) to live a new life in other places?D) to marry very soon?19.Anold Brown changed his name because ____.?A) there was racial discrimination in employment?B) Brown was just the same as Braunowiitz?C) it was easy to write?D) Brown sounds better?20.From the passage we can infer that ____.?A) the Jews were satisfied with their life in the Bronx?B) the Jewish immigrants could not be rich?C) all the immigrants were very poor?D) the young Jews didn’t accept the stern reality??Passage 3Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:?It is all very well to blame traffic congestion, the cost of petrol and the hectic pace modern life, but manners on the roads are becoming deplorable. Everybody knows that the nicest men become monsters behind the wheel. It is all very well, again to, to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another kettle of fish altogether. You might tolerate the odd road hog, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation calls for a “Be Kind to Other Drivers” ca mpaign, otherwise it may get completely out of hand.?Road courtesy is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most levelheaded and good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to retaliate when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little courtesy goes along way towards relieving the tensions and frustrations of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of courtesy helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of courtesy are all too rare today. Manydrivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize courtesy when they see it.?Contrary to general opinion, young drivers (especially sports-car owners, who take pride in their driving) have better manners than their seniors. But this attitude is short-lived in the world of modern driving where many drivers neither expect nor give any quarter. This may be a commendable trait on the battlefield but is out of place on the roads.?Lorry drivers say they have almost abandoned the practice of signal cars to over take when the road is clear, because many of the cars took too long to pass. Their drivers couldn’t be bothered to select a lower gear. Others, after overtaking, slowed down again and hogged the road. Again, a motoring magazine has recently drawn attention to the increasing number of drivers who never wait for gaps.“They manufacture them by force, using their direction indicators as a threat rather than a warni ng.” Slanting matches and even punch-ups are quite common. It can’t be long before we hear of pistols and knives being used: we can then call our dual carriageways duel carriageways, and solve a spelling problem in the process.?Driving is essentially a state of mind. However technically skilled a driver maybe, he can’t be an advanced motorist if he is always arrogant and aggressive.?21.What does the author mean by “another kettle of fish altogether” (Para.1, sentence 3)??A) completely another awkward and difficult situation?B) another net of fish put together?C) completely another kind of situation?D) completely another kind of driver ?22.The phrase “get completely out of hand” (Para. 1, last sentence) stands for ____.?A) get without giving it much thought completely?B) get out of order completely?C) get out of control completely?D) get ready completely?23.Road courtesy is good sense because ____.?A) it minimizes friction?B) most drivers never make acknowledgements?C) it cuts down the number of drivers?D) most drivers will hit you if offended?24.A common example of bad manners on the roads is ____.?A) not signaling when overtaking?B) that they couldn’t be bothered to select a lower gear ?C) preventing other vehicles from overtaking?D) making holes in the roads on purpose?25.According to the author, discourtesy on the roads is caused primarily by ____.?A) too many vehicles on the roads?B) the way people have to rush around nowadays?C) the aggressiveness of most drivers?D) too many pedestrians walking aboutPassage 4?Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:?Unlike any earlier building complex anywhere in the world, Rockefeller in New York City was built, not as a place where people could live, but as a city in which they could work. It was the biggest building project of its kind, a city within a city, and of the forerunner of projects that have sprung up all over the world. 30 architects, 120 draftsmen, and hundreds of other artistsand technicians were employed just to draft the plans. Before the buildings could be erected,229 old buildings had to be emptied of 4,000 tenants and razed. Just to buy up the leases took over two years and cost over $6,000,000. The unusual shape and setbacks of the 70-story RCA building resulted primarily from practical considerations such as lighting, the movement of people and the building’s services. The lower concourse and basement level were set aside for shops. A sunken plaza, complete with gardens and fountains, was designed to provide access to these shops. Today the plaza, which is used for ice-skating in winter and dining and dancing in summer , is one of the centre’s most popular attractions.?26.Which of the following statement is the main idea of the passage??A) The pleasant work environment.?B) The purpose of the RCA building setbacks.?C) The recreational facilities at Rockefeller.?D) The architectural significance of Rockefeller centre.?27.From the passage we know, Rockefeller centre was originally planed to serve as what kind of complex??A) Commercial. B) Recreational.?C) Housing.D) T ourist.?28.Which of the following is true about Rockefeller centre??A) It was patterned after an ancient design.?B) It has been imitated numerous times. ?C) All shopkeepers were required to take two-year leases.?D) 4,000 tenants are located in the complex.?29.According to the passage, what does the shape of the RCA building reflect ??A) Architectural creativity.B) City regulation.?C) Practical considerations.D) Decreased space needs.?30.The sunken plaza at Rockefeller centre was originally designed as ____.?A) an entrance of shopsB) an ice-skating rink?C) a restaurantD) a tourist attraction??Part ⅢVocabulary (20 minutes)Directions:There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

大学英语六级模拟试卷及答案一、问答题（共11题，共120分）1.Part I Reading ComprehensionDirections:In this part there are four passages.Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions.Read the passage and answer the questions.Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Questions1to5are based on the following passage:Some years ago the captain of a ship was very interested in medicine.He always took medicine books to sea and liked to talk about different diseases.One day a lazy sailor on his ship pretended to be ill.He lay on his bunk(铺)and groaned as if he were very sick.The captain came to see him and was very pleased to have a patient to look after. He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work.Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest.Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told“sick”man to have a rest.The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do.The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking.At last the mate(船长副手) decided to cure the“sick”men.He mixed up some soap,soot(烟灰),glue(胶水)and other unpleasant things.Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick”men.When they tasted the medicine,they really did feel ill.It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of hi bunk,ran up on desk and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour,night and day.This soon cured them.They both said they felt better and wanted to start word again.The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.1.The first sailor pretended to be ill because he wanted to.A.test the captain’s knowledge of medicineB.be free from workC.have the best food on the shipD.play a joke on his friends2.When the captain knew a sailor was ill,he.A.didn’t care muchB.sent for a doctorC.looked after him and told him to have a restD.gave him some medicine3.The patients felt better quickly because.A.they had been given proper medicineB.they learned that the captain had found out the truthC.they were laughed at by their friendsD.the medicine the mate gave was horrible4.When the captain knew he had been deceived,he.A.told them not to do so againB.lost his temperC.made them work harderD.fired them5.Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A.A sudden Cure.B.Two Patients.C.Captain and Sailors.D.A Difficult Voyage.正确答案：BCDCA2.Passage2Questions6to10are based on the following passage:When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago,it was so difficult to separate form the ores in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold.The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later.The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum because practical for many purposes,one of which was making pots and pans.Aluminum is lightweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different forms.By mixing it with other metals,scientists have been able to produce a variety of alloys,some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.Today,the uses of aluminum are innumerable.Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engine of automobiles,in the hulls of boats.It is also used in many parts of airplanes.In fact,the huge“airbus”planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist.By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them,Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.Since aluminum is such a versatile(多用的)metal,it is fortunate that bauxite(铝土矿),which is one of its chief sources,is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances.As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible,we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.6.The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refining process with the aid of.A.windB.solar energyC.hydraulic powerD.electricity7.Aluminum is.A.lightweight,rustproof but not easily shaped into different formsB.heavyweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different formsC.lightweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different formsD.lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to become rusty8.Which of the following is NOT true?A.Aluminum is widely used in transportation.B.Aluminum is also used in many parts of airplanes.C.Aluminum is being used extensively in the building industry.D.Aluminum is not used in its pure form.9.Aluminum is found on earth mostly in the form of.A.pure metalB.bauxiteC.goldD.liquid10.What is the passage talking about?A.The features of aluminum and its functions.B.The process of aluminum.C.The discovery of aluminum.D.The promising future of aluminum.正确答案：DCDBA3.Passage3Questions11to15are based on the following passage:The idea of a special day to honor mothers was first put forward in America in1907.two years later a woman,Mrs.John Bruce Dodd,in the state of Washington proposed a similar day to honor the head of the family—the father.Her mother died when she was very young,and her father brought her up.She loved her father very much.In response to Mrs.Dodd’s idea that same year—1909,the state governor of Washington proclaimed(宣布)the third Sunday in June Father’s Day.The idea was officially approved by President Woodrow Wilson in1916.in1924,President Calvin Coolidge recommended national observance of the occasion“to establish more intimate(亲密)relations between fathers and their children,and to impress upon fathers the full measure of their obligations.”The red or white rose is recognized as the official Father’s Day flower.Father’s Day took longer to establish on a national scale than Mother’s Day,but as the idea grained popularity,tradesmen and manufacturers began to see the commercial possibilities.They encouraged sons and daughters to honor their fathers with small thank-you presents,such as a tie or pair of socks,as well as by sending greeting cards.During the Second World War,American servicemen stationed in Britain began to request Father’s Day greeting cards to send home.This generated a response with British card publishers. Though at first the British public was slow to accept this rather artificial day,it’s now well celebrated in Britain on the third Sunday in June in much the same way as in America. Father’s Day seems to be much less important as occasion than the Mother’s Day.Not many of the children offer their fathers some presents.But the American fathers still think they are much better fated than the fathers of many other countries,who have not even a day for their sake in name only.11.When did Father’s Day officially begin to have national popularity?A.1907B.1909C.1916D.192412.Who first started the idea of holding the Father’s Day?A.Mrs.John Bruce DoddB.Mrs.John Bruce’s MotherC.The government of Washington.D.Some businessmen.13.What flower will be popular on Father’s Day?A.LilyB.Water LilyC.Red rose or white roseD.Sunflower.14.Which statement is true,a according to this passage?A.It took even longer for Mother’s Day to gain national popularity.B.The businessmen helped to make Father’s Day popular.C.Father’s Day is only celebrated in America.D.Father’s Day is only a trick of the businessmen to make money.15.What was the first reaction of the British publishing towards Father’s Day?A.They thought highly of it and accepted it at once.B.They just accepted it at once without any hesitation.C.They just thought it a joke.D.They thought it was too artificial and took a long time to accept.正确答案：DACBD4.Passage4Questions16to20are based on the following passage:Culture shock is an occupational disease(职业病)for people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad.Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse.Those signs are as following:when to shake hands and what to say when meet people,when and how to give tips,how to make purchases,when to accept and refuse invitations,when to take statements seriously and when not.These signs,which may be words, gestures,facial expressions,or customs,are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept.All of us depend on hundreds of these signs for our peace of mind and day-to-day efficiency,but we do not carry most at the level of conscious awareness.Now when an individual enters a strange culture,all or most of these familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded or full of good will you may be a series of supports have been knocked from under you,followed by a feeling of frustration.When suffering from culture shock people first reject the environment which caused discomfort.The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad.When foreigners in a strange land get together in complain about the host country its

environment.C.Although he takes the culture difference for granted,he still doesn’t know how to do with it.D.He may begin to hate the people or things around him.20.The main idea of this passage is
