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 thequestions 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.Google's Plan for World's Biggest Online Library: Philanthropy Or Act of Piracy?In recent years, teams of workers dispatched by Google have been working hard to make digital copies of books. So far, Google has scanned more than 10 million titles from libraries in America and Europe - including half a million volumes held by the Bodleian in Oxford. The exact method it uses is unclear; the company does not allow outsiders to observe the process.Why is Google undertaking such a venture? Why is it even interested in all those out-of-printlibrary books, most of which have been gathering dust on forgotten shelves for decades? Thecompany claims its motives are essentially public-spirited. Its overall mission, after all, is to "organise the world's information", so it would be odd if that information did not include books.The company likes to present itself as having lofty aspirations. "This really isn't about making money. We are doing this for the good of society." As Santiago de la Mora, head of Google Books for Europe, puts it: "By making it possible to search the millions of books that exist today, we hope to expand the frontiers of human knowledge."Dan Clancy, the chief architect of Google Books, does seem genuine in his conviction that thisis primarily a philanthropic (慈善的) exercise. "Google's core business is search and find, soobviously what helps improve Google's search engine is good for Google," he says. "But we havenever builta spreadsheet (电子数据表) outlining the financial benefits of this, and I have neverhad to justify the amount I am spending to the company's founders."It is easy, talking to Clancy and his colleagues, to be swept along by their missionary passion. But Google's book-scanning project is proving controversial. Several opponents have recently emerged, ranging from rival tech giants such as Microsoft and Amazon to small bodies representing authors and publishers across the world. In broad terms, these opponents have levelled two sets of criticisms at Google.First, they have questioned whether the primary responsibility for digitally archiving the world's books should be allowed to fall to a commercial company. In a recent essay in the New YorkReview of Books, Robert Darnton, the head of Harvard University's library, argued that because such books are a common resource – the possession of us all – only public, not-for-profit bodiesshould be given the power to control them.The second related criticism is that Google's scanning of books is actually illegal. This allegation has led to Google becoming mired in (陷入) a legal battle whose scope and complexity makes the Jarndyce and Jarndyce case in Charles Dickens' Bleak House look straightforward.At its centre, however, is one simple issue: that of copyright. The inconvenient fact about most books, to which Google has arguably paid insufficient attention, is that they are protected by copyright. Copyright laws differ from country to country, but in general protection extends for the duration of an author's life and for a substantial period afterwards, thus allowing the author's heirs to benefit. (In Britain and America, this post-death period is 70 years.) This means, of course, that almost all of the books published in the 20th century are still under copyright – and the last century saw more books published than in all previous centuries combined. Of the roughly 40 million books in US libraries, for example, an estimated 32 million are in copyright. Of these, some 27 million are out of print.Outside the US, Google has made sure only to scan books that are out of copyright and thus in the "public domain" (works such as the Bodleian's first edition of Middlemarch, which anyone canread for free on Google Books Search).But, within the US, the company has scanned both in-copyright and out-of-copyright works. Inits defence, Google points out that it displays only small segments of books that are in copyright– arguing that such displays are "fair use". But critics allege that by making electronic copies of these books without first seeking the permission of copyright holders, Google has committed piracy."The key principle of copyright law has always been that works can be copied only once authors have expressly given their permission," says Piers Blofeld, of the Sheil Land literary agency in London. "Google has reversed this – it has simply copied all these works without bothering toask."In 2005, the Authors Guild of America, together with a group of US publishers, launched a class action suit (集团诉讼) against Google that, after more than two years of negotiation, endedwith an announcement last October that Google and the claimants had reached an out-of-courtsettlement. The full details are complicated - the text alone runs to 385 pages– and trying tosummarise it is no easy task. "Part of the problem is that it is basically incomprehensible," saysBlofeld, one of the settlement's most vocal British critics.Broadly, the deal provides a mechanism for Google to compensate authors and publishers whose rights it has breached (including giving them a share of any future revenue it generates fromtheir works). In exchange for this, the rights holders agree not to sue Google in future.This settlement hands Google the power - but only with the agreement of individual rights holders – to exploit its database of out-of-print books. It can include them in subscription deals sold to libraries or sell them individually under a consumer licence. It is these commercial provisions that are proving the settlement's most controversial aspect.Critics point out that, by giving Google the right to commercially exploit its database, thesettlement paves the way for a subtle shift in the company's role from provider of information to seller. "Google's business model has always been to provide information for free, and sell advertising on the basis of the traffic this generates," points out James Grimmelmann, associate professor at New York Law School. Now, he says, because of the settlement's provisions, Google could become a significant force in bookselling.Interest in this aspect of the settlement has focused on "orphan" works, where there is noknown copyright holder – these make up an estimated 5-10% of the books Google has scanned. Under the settlement, when no rights holders come forward and register their interest in a work, commercial control automatically reverts to Google. Google will be able to display up to 20% oforphan works for free, include them in its subscription deals to libraries and sell them to individual buyers under the consumer licence.It is by no means certain that the settlement will be enacted (执行) – it is the subject of afairness hearing in the US courts. But if it is enacted, Google will in effect be off the hook as far as copyright violations in the US are concerned. Many people are seriously concerned by this - and the company is likely to face challenges in other courts around the world.No one knows the precise use Google will make of the intellectual property it has gained byscanning the world's library books, and the truth, as Gleick, an American science writer and member of the Authors Guild, points out, is that the company probably doesn't even know itself. But what is certain is that, in some way or other, Google's entrance into digital bookselling will have a significant impact on the book world in the years to come.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

2011年12月六级真题Part I WritingDirections:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Excessive Use of Plastic Bags. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese.1.目前塑料袋存在的问题2.减少使用塑料袋的重要性3.如何做到减少使用塑料袋Excessive Use of Plastic BagsIn recent years, the excessive use of plastic bags has become a topic of great concern. Plastic bags are lightweight, convenient, and inexpensive to produce, which explains their popularity across the globe. However, their convenience comes at a significant cost to the environment.The problems associated with plastic bags are numerous. Firstly, plastic bags are non-biodegradable, which means they will persist in the environment for hundreds of years, causing serious pollution. They are often littered and end up in water bodies, where they pose a threat to marine life. Secondly, plastic bags are derived from fossil fuels, contributing to the depletion of non-renewable resources and exacerbating climate change.Reducing the use of plastic bags is of paramount importance. Firstly, it can help alleviate environmental pollution. By using reusable shopping bags made of cloth or fabric, we can significantly decrease the demand for plastic bags and reduce the amount of waste generated. This, in turn, can minimize the harmful effects on the ecosystem and protect marine life.Moreover, reducing the use of plastic bags can help conserve non-renewable resources. The production of plastic bags relies heavily on fossil fuels, which are finite and will eventually run out. By using alternative materials or adopting sustainable practices like utilizing biodegradable bags, we can ensure the sustainable use of resources for future generations.To achieve the goal of reducing plastic bag usage, several steps can be taken. Firstly, governments should introduce regulations or impose taxes on plastic bags to deter their use. This approach has proved effective in countries like Ireland, where a plastic bag tax has resulted in a significant reduction in usage. Secondly, promoting education and raising public awareness is crucial. By educating the public about theharms of plastic bags and the benefits of alternative options, individuals can make informed choices and actively participate in reducing plastic bag consumption.In conclusion, the excessive use of plastic bags has severe consequences for the environment and the sustainable use of resources. It is a collective responsibility to address this issue. By reducing plastic bag usage through regulatory measures, education, and public awareness campaigns, we can contribute to a greener and more sustainable future.Part III Listening ComprehensionSection ADirections:In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

初论自锁颈枷现代奶牛群管理需要更频繁地保定牛只。
在进行常规体检、免疫、人工授精、妊检、治疗、去角、产犊等生产活动时，奶牛必须被保定。
表1列出了日常进行的奶牛管理活动，可以看出，由于每头奶牛一个泌乳期可能进行40－50次处置，因而奶牛保定很是关键。
比如要注射药物进行同期发情处理，则一个配种期就需要保定四次牛。
由于专业分工的不同，常需要几个人管理同一个牛群。
兽医要经常进行牛群健康检查，配种员同时要观察母牛发情和配种。
随着牛群规模的扩大，许多常规工作内容需要包给场外的技术人员去完成。
这些人每天来场识别需要进行配种的母牛并适时配种和保持完整的记录。
可以设置若干饲槽式自锁颈枷便于技术人员同时处置多头牛。
自锁颈枷使得技术人员可以灵活掌握到场时间，并以有效的方式对奶牛进行观察、识别和配种。
设计此设施时应便于奶牛进出和人员的操作。
由于这方面的研究报道很少，在生产实际中，应根据管理需要和个人偏好决定全部或部分采用自锁颈枷。
一、奶牛保定方式对奶牛进行分群和保定的活动可以以不同的方式完成，如人工分群、电子自动分群门或自锁颈枷等。
自锁颈枷是在随机保定后再识别目标牛，而分群门通常是有选择地将牛只导向处置区再进行保定。
选择不同的保定方式，操作规程、人力需要及奶牛应激程度相应的也会有差别，因而要结合考虑奶牛场管理目前和长远的需要。
保定栏的型式或样式应按照奶牛生产者管理意图自成体系。
通道宽度和交叉，饮水器、风机、喷淋和自由卧栏的设计等，必须满足奶牛饲喂效率、挤奶次数和生产目标的需要。
这对于6列式牛舍尤其重要，此类牛舍每头牛拥有的饲喂、过道和空间比其他牛舍要小。
一个人就应能够安全方便地隔离和保定一头奶牛。
应该考虑生产流程中奶牛挤奶、饲喂、治疗活动的运动通道。
粗暴对待或长时间保定是引起奶牛应激的主要原因。
应急奶牛产奶量下降，放奶速度减慢，并且难于控制，骚动的姿势增加了操作人员和奶牛受伤的危险性。
设计不良的保定设施可能使奶牛恐惧不安，而设计良好的设施使奶牛更容易进入，粗暴驱赶行为减少，应激程度降低。

American PartAmerican EducationChinese version⏹上课铃响，学生，老师进教室。
老师：今天上课，我们讲灰姑娘的故事。
大家都预习了吗？学生：这还要预习？老得掉渣了。
老师：灰姑娘?是****童话还是安徒生童话？他的作者是谁？哪年出生？作者生平事迹如何？学生：......书上不都写了吗？不会自己看啊？老师：这故事的重大意义是什么？学生：得，这肯定要考的了。
老师：好，开始讲课文。
谁先给分个段，并说明一下这么分段的理由。
学生：前后各一段，中间一段，总分总.......老师：开始讲课了，大家认真听讲。
学生：已经开始好久了 .... ...........⏹老师：说到这里，大家注意这句话。
这句话是个比喻句，是明喻还是暗喻？作者为什么这么写？学生：(n人开始睡觉 .... ........... )老师：大家注意这个词，我如果换成另外一个词，为什么不如作者的好？学生：(又n人开始睡觉 .... ........... )老师：大家有没有注意到，这段话如果和那段话位置换一换，行不行？为什么？学生：我又不是你，我怎么会注意到啊？(又n人开始睡觉.... )老师：怎么这么多人睡觉啊？你们要知道，不好好上课就不能考好成绩，不能考好成绩就不能上大学，不能上大学就不能......你们要明白这些做人的道理。
American version⏹上课铃响了，孩子们跑进教室，这节课老师要讲的是《灰姑娘》的故事。
⏹老师先请一个孩子上台给同学讲一讲这个故事。
孩子很快讲完了，老师对他表示了感谢，然后开始向全班提问。
老师：你们喜欢故事里面的哪一个？不喜欢哪一个？为什么？⏹学生：喜欢辛黛瑞拉（灰姑娘），还有王子，不喜欢她的后妈和后妈带来的姐姐。
辛黛瑞拉善良、可爱、漂亮。
后妈和姐姐对辛黛瑞拉不好。
⏹老师：如果在午夜12点的时候，辛黛瑞拉没有来得及跳上她的番瓜马车，你们想一想，可能会出现什么情况？⏹学生：辛黛瑞拉会变成原来脏脏的样子，穿著破旧的衣服。
哎呀，那就惨啦。
老师：所以，你们一定要做一个守时的人，不然就可能给自己带来麻烦。
另外，你们看，你们每个人平时都打扮得漂漂亮亮的，千万不要突然邋里邋遢地出现在别人面前，不然你们的朋友要吓着了。
女孩子们，你们更要注意，将来你们长大和男孩子约会，要是你不注意，被你的男朋友看到你很难看的样子，他们可能就吓昏了（老师做昏倒状）⏹老师：好，下一个问题，如果你是辛黛瑞拉的后妈，你会不会阻止辛黛瑞拉去参加王子的舞会？你们一定要诚实哟！⏹学生：（过了一会儿，有孩子举手回答）是的，如果我辛黛瑞拉的后妈，我也会阻止她去参加王子的舞会。
⏹老师：为什么？学生：因为，因为我爱自己的女儿，我希望自己的女儿当上王后。
⏹老师：是的，所以，我们看到的后妈好象都是不好的人，她们只是对别人不够好，可是她们对自己的孩子却很好，你们明白了吗？她们不是坏人，只是她们还不能够像爱自己的孩子一样去爱其它的孩子。
-老师：孩子们，下一个问题，辛黛瑞拉的后妈不让她去参加王子的舞会，甚至⏹-把门锁起来，她为什么能够去，而且成为舞会上最美丽的姑娘呢？⏹学生：因为有仙女帮助她，给她漂亮的衣服，还把番瓜变成马车，把狗和老鼠变成仆人。
⏹老师：对，你们说得很好！想一想，如果辛黛瑞拉没有得到仙女的帮助，她是不可能去参加舞会的，是不是？学生：是的！⏹老师：如果狗、老鼠都不愿意帮助她，她可能在最后的时刻成功地跑回家吗？⏹学生：不会，那样她就可以成功地吓到王子了。
（全班再次大笑）⏹老师：虽然辛黛瑞拉有仙女帮助她，但是，光有仙女的帮助还不够。
所以，孩子们，无论走到哪里，我们都是需要朋友的。
我们的朋友不一定是仙女，但是，我们需要他们，我也希望你们有很多很多的朋友。
下面，请你们想一想，如果辛黛瑞拉因为后妈不愿意她参加舞会就放弃了机会，她可能成为王子的新娘吗？⏹学生：不会！那样的话，她就不会到舞会上，不会被王子遇到，认识和爱上她了。
⏹老师：对极了！如果辛黛瑞拉不想参加舞会，就是她的后妈没有阻止，甚至支持她去，也是没有用的，是谁决定她要去参加王子的舞会？⏹学生：她自己。
⏹老师：所以，孩子们，就是辛黛瑞拉没有妈妈爱她，她的后妈不爱她，这也不能够让她不爱自己。
就是因为她爱自己，她才可能去寻找自己希望得到的东西。
如果你们当中有人觉得没有人爱，或者像辛黛瑞拉一样有一个不爱她的后妈，你们要怎么样？⏹学生：要爱自己！⏹老师：对，没有一个人可以阻止你爱自己，如果你觉得别人不够爱你，你要加倍地爱自己；如果别人没有给你机会，你应该加倍地给自己机会；如果你们真的爱自己，就会为自己找到自己需要的东西，没有人可以阻止辛黛瑞拉参加王子的舞会，没有人可以阻止辛黛瑞拉当上王后，除了她自己。
对不对？学生：是的！！！⏹-老师：最后一个问题，这个故事有什么不合理的地方？⏹学生：（过了好一会）午夜12点以后所有的东西都要变回原样，可是，辛黛瑞拉的水晶鞋没有变回去。
⏹老师：天哪，你们太棒了！你们看，就是伟大的作家也有出错的时候，所以，出错不是什么可怕的事情。
我担保，如果你们当中谁将来要当作家，一定比这个作家更棒！你们相信吗？⏹孩子们欢呼雀跃。
遭遇美国教育[作者：高钢]⏹10岁的孩子被送进了美国学校，上英文课，老师布置的作业是写论文，题目居然大得冲天：《我怎么看人类文化》；上历史课，老师让孩子扮演总统顾问，给国家决策当高参；在中学的物理课上，作业竟然是一个市政研究项目———城市照明系统的布局；而道德教育，居然是从让孩子们爱护小动物开始。
没有统一的教科书，没有统一的考试，没有对学生的三六九等的分类排位。
这就是呈现在一个中国记者眼前的美国教育。
