Guide Dogs For 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 Do Guide 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 commands Additionally, 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 Hours Guide dogs enjoy their work immensely, and they get a lot of satisfaction from a job well done, but there is no room 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! Training People 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 Team The 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 monthhelping the new team learn to work together. 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________,. A) the handler must walk straight B) the dog must try to walk straight C) both the handler and the dog should walk straight D) neither of them has to walk straight 2. Like other dogs, guide dogs any command from the handler. A) are supposed to ignore B) are not supposed to ignore C) are supposed to obey D) are not supposed to obey 3.

Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter onAnswer Sheet 2.Can societies be rich and green?[A] our economies are to flourish , if global poverty is to be eliminated and i f the well-being ofthe world's people enhanced f the well-being ofthe world's people enhanced——not just in this generation but in succeeding generations in succeeding generations——wemust make sure we take care of the natural e nvironment and resources on which oureconomic activity depends." That sta tement comes not, as you might imagine, from astereotypical tree-hugging, save-the-world greenie (环保主义者), but from Gordon Brown, a politician with a reputation for rigour for rigour, , thoro ughness and above all, caution.[B] A surprising thing for the man who runs one of the world's most powerful economies tosay? Perhaps; though in the run-up to the five-year review of th e Millennium (千年的）Goals, heis far from alone. The roots of his speech, given in March at the roun dtable meeting of environment and energy ministers from the G20 group of nations, stretch back to 1972, andthe United Nations Conference on the Hum an Environment in Stockholm.[C] "The protection and improvement of the human environment is a major i ssue whichaffects the well-being of peoples and economic development throu ghout the world," read thefinal declaration from this gathering, the first of a sequence which would lead to the Rio deJaneiro Earth Summit in 1992 and t he World Development Summit in Johannesburg three yearsago. [D] Hunt through the reports prepared by UN agencies and development grou ps ps——many forconferences such as this year's Millennium Goals review —and yo u will find that the linkagebetween environmental protection and economic p rogress is a common thread .[E] Managing ecosystems sustainably is more profitable than exploiting the m, according to theMillennium Ecosystem Assessment. But finding hard evide nce to support the thesis is not soeasy. Thoughts turn first to some sort of gl obal statistic, some indicator which would rate thewealth of nations in both economic and environmental terms and show a relationship betweenthe two.[F] If such an indicator exists, it is well hidden. And on reflection , this is no t surprising; thesingle word "environment " has so many dimensions, and th ere are so many other factorsaffecting wealth ere are so many other factorsaffecting wealth——such as the oil deposits such as the oil deposits——that teasing out a simple economy-environment relationship would be almost im possible .[G] The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, a vast four-year global study wh ich reported its initial conclusions earlier this year conclusions earlier this year, found reasons to believe th , found reasons to believe that managing ecosystemssustainably at managing ecosystemssustainably—— working with nature rather than agains t it t it——might be less profitable in the shortterm, but certainly brings long-term rewards.[H] And the World Resources Institute (WRI) in its World Resources 2005 repo rt, issued at theend of August, produced several such examples from Africa a nd Asia; it also demonstrated thatenvironmental degradation affects the poor more than the rich, as poorer people derive a muchhigher proportion of thei r income directly from the natural resources around them.[I] But there are also many examples of growing wealth by trashing the envir onment , in richand poor parts of the world alike, whether through unregulat ed mineral extraction , drasticwater use for agriculture, slash-and-burn far ming, or fossil-fuel-guzzling (大量消耗) transport .Of course, such growth may not persist in the long term —whic h is what Mr h is what Mr. Brown and theStockholm . Brown and theStockholm declaration were both attempting to point out. Perhaps the best example of boom growth and bust decline is the Grand Banks fishery. For almost five centuries a very large supply of cod (鳕鱼) provided abundant raw material for an industry which at its peakemploye d about 40,000 people, sustaining entire communities in Newfoundland. Then,abruptly , the cod population collapsed. There were no longer enough fish in the sea for the stock to maintain itself, let alone an industry. More than a de cade later later, there was no sign ofthe , there was no sign ofthe ecosystem re-building itself. It had, appa rently, been fished out of existence; and the once mighty Newfoundland fleet now gropes about frantically for crab on the sea floor on the sea floor. . [J] There is a view that modem humans are inevitably sowing the seeds of a global GrandBanks-style disaster . The idea is that we are taking more out o f what you might call theplanet's environmental bank balance than it can sust ain ; we are living beyond our ecological means. One recent study attempted to calculate the extent of this "ecological overshoot ofthe human economy ", and found that we are using 1.2 Earth's-worth of environmental goodsand s ervices ervices——the implication being that at some point the debt will be called in, a nd all thoseservices nd all thoseservices——the things which the planet does for us for free-will gri nd to a halt.[K] Whether this is right, and if so where and when the ecological axe will fa ll, is hard to determine with any precision —which is why governments and fi nancial institutions are onlybeginning to bring such risks into their economic c alculations. It is also the reason whydevelopment agencies are notunited in their view of environmental issues; while some, like the WRI, mainta in thatenvironmental progress needs to go hand-in-hand with economic devel opment, others arguethat the priority is to build a thriving economy, and th en use the wealth created to tackle environmental degradation.[L] This view assumes that rich societies will invest in environmental care. But is this right? Dothings get better or worse as we get richer? Here the Stockho lm declaration is ambiguous . "In the developing countries," it says,"most of the environmental problems are caused byunder-development." So itis saying that economic development should make for a cleanerworld? Not ne cessarily;"In the industrialized countries, environmental problems are generally related to industrialisation and technological development," it continues. In other wo rds, poorand rich both over-exploit the natural world, but for different reason s. It's simply not true thateconomic growth will surely make our world cleaner s. It's simply not true thateconomic growth will surely make our world cleaner. .[M] Clearly, richer societies are able to provide environmental improvements which lie wellbeyond the reach of poorer communities. Citizens of wealthy nat ions demand national parks,clean rivers, clean air and poison -free food They also, however also, however, use far more natural resources , use far more natural resources , use far more natural resources——fuel, water (all those baths an d golf courses) and building materials.[N] A case can be made that rich nations export environmental problems, the most graphicexample being climate change. As a country's wealth grows, so d o its greenhouse gasemissions. The figures available will not be completely accurate . Measuring emissions is not a precise science, particularly when it comes to issues surrounding land use; not all nations havereleased up-to-dat e data, and in any case, emissions from some sectors such as aviation arenot included in national statistics. But the data is exact enough for a clear trend t o be easily discernible . As countries become richer . As countries become richer, they , they produce more gree nhouse gases; and the impact of those gases will fall primarily in poor parts of the world.[O] Wealth is not, of course, the only factor involved. The average Norwegian is better off thanthe average US citizen, but contributes about half as much t o climate change. But could Norwaykeep its standard of living and yet cut its emissions to Moroccan or even Ethiopian levels? Thatquestion, repeated acros s a dozen environmental issues and across our diverse planet , iswhat will ul timately determine whether the human race is living beyond its ecological meansas it pursues economic revival.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

2016年12月大学英语六级真题试卷(三)(题后含答案及解析)

2016年12月大学英语六级真题试卷（三）(题后含答案及解析)题型有：1. Writing 2. Listening Comprehension 3. Reading Comprehension 4. TranslationPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on creation. Your essay should include the importance of creation and measures to be taken to encourage creation. You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：On Creation Throughout the ages, we have concluded a number of factors that contribute to success, among which is creation. Just as the saying goes, “ There is no doubt that creation is the most important human resource of all. “ Not only is creation the force driving economy and society to advance, but it is also essential to the development of individuals. Those who often come up with new ideas are more likely to achieve success, while a man who always sticks to habit and experience can hardly create new things. In terms of giving measures to encourage creation, I will list the following ones. On the one hand, the public are expected to realize the significance of creation, so the social media should play its due role in advocating the value of innovation and encouraging the public to cultivate the awareness of creation. On the other hand, those who are equipped with creative thinking deserve some kind of praise, both materially and spiritually. Creation has been a hot word for a long time and we cannot emphasize the importance of creation too much. Therefore, we should spare no effort to learn knowledge as much as possible to prepare ourselves for being creative people.Part II Listening ComprehensionSection A听力原文：M: Guess what? The worst food I’ve ever had was in France.W: Really? That’s odd.(1)I thought the French were all good cooks.M: Yes. That’s right. I suppose it’s really like anywhere else, though. You know, some places are good. Some bad. But it’s really all our own fault. W: What do you mean? M: Well, it was the first time I’d been to France. This was years ago when I was at school.(2)I went there with my parents’ friends, from my father’s school. They’d hired a coach to take them to Switzerland. W: A school trip? M: Right. Most of them had never been abroad before. We’d crossed the English Channel at night, and we set off through France, and breakfast time arrived, and the coach driver had arranged for us to stop at this little cafe.

The real English breakfast.M: Yes.Anyway, we didn’t know any better—so we had it, and ugh...! W: What was it like? Disgusting? M: Oh, it was incredible! They just got a bowl and put some fat in it. And then they put some bacon in the fat, broke an egg over the top and put the whole lot in the oven for about ten minutes. W: In the oven! You’re joking. You can’t cook bacon and eggs in the oven! M: Well. They must have done it that way. It was hot, but it wasn’t cooked. There was just this egg floating about in gallons of fat and raw bacon. W:(3-1)Did you actually eat it? M:(3-2)No! Nobody did. They all wanted to turn round and go home. You know, back to teabags and fish and chips. You can’t blame them really. Anyway, the next night we were all given another foreign speciality.

下半年英语六级阅读模拟题及答案

下半年英语六级阅读模拟题及答案2016下半年英语六级阅读模拟题及答案英语四六级阅读在考试中占有分数的比例很大，拿下阅读基本上英语四六级考试就成功了一半，下面是yjbys网店铺提供给大家关于英语六级阅读模拟题及答案，希望童鞋们好好练习。

The destruction of our natural resources and contamination of our food supply continue occur, largely because of the extreme difficulty in affixing (把…固定) legal responsibility on those who continue to treat our environment with reckless abandon (放任). Attempts to prevent pollution by legislation, economic incentives and friendly persuasion have been net by lawsuits, personal and industrial denial and long delays—not only in accepting responsibility, but more importantly, in doing something about it.It seems that only when government decides it can afford tax incentives or production sacrifices is there any initiative for change. Where is industry’s and our recognition that protecting mankind’s great treasure is the single most important responsibility? If ever there will be time for environmental health professionals to come to the frontlines and provide leadership to solve environmental problems, that time is now.We are being asked, and, in fact, the public is demanding that we take positive action. It is our responsibility as professionals in environmental health to make the difference. Yes, the ecologists, the environmental activists and the conservationists serve to communicate, stimulate thinking and promote behavioral change. However, it is those of us who are paid to make the decisions to develop, improve and enforce environmental standards, I submit, who must lead the charge.We must recognize that environmental health issues do not stop at city limits, county lines, state or even federal boundaries. We can no longer afford to be tunnel-visioned in our approach. We must visualize issues from every perspective to make the objective decisions. We must express our views clearly to prevent media distortion and public confusion.I believe we have a three-part mission for the present. First, we must continue to press for improvements in the quality of life that people can make for themselves. Second, we must investigate and understand the link between environment and health. Third, we must be able to communicate technical information in a form that citizens can understand. If we can accomplish these three goals in this decade, maybe we can finally stop environmental degradation, and not merely hold it back.

2016 年6 月大学英语六级考试真题（第三套）解析Part I Writing【参考范文】As we know, science and technology are the primary forces that drive social and economic development. Robotsare the inevitable products of technological progress and the crystallization of human wisdom. It becomes increasingly possible for robots to replace human beings in work and in life, which will have a profound impact on our lives in the future. From my point of view, the influence of robots is two-sided. On the one hand, robots can increase work efficiency and avoid accidents in which human lives are lost. Furthermore, more people can be released from the routine of simple and monotonous tasks and instead can concentrate on sophisticated skills and technologies. On the other hand, more robots in industry means that fewer people are needed in some fields, leading to the unemployment of people with less education. By and large, we can come to the conclusion that the impact of robots on industry and people’s daily lives is a double-edged sword. Only by receiving more education can we adapt to the changes brought by it.听力Section A 参考答案1 What do we learn about the South Theater Company?[B]【解析】女士说 South Theater Company 想知道我们是否对赞助他们去东亚旅行感兴趣。

Va., dreams of attending a prestigious college like Carnegie Mellon or Cornell. “A degree from either could make a difference for the rest of my life. “ he says. And on the face of it, Spangenburger has what it takes: eight Advanced Placement courses and an impressive 3. 9 grade-point average. He scored 1330 on his SAT(Scholastic Assessment Tests), well within the range desired by many elite schools, and now he’s borrowed an SAT prep book, and hopes to break 1400 on his second try. His teachers say he’s smart, motivated and exceptionally mature. He holds two after-school jobs and also finds time to volunteer, setting up a computer cafe at the local Boys & Girls Club. And he drives his mother, who is battling cancer, to her monthly chemo sessions. Only two obstacles stand between Spangenburger and his dream: he comes from a poor family(neither parent went to college)and attends a rural high school. “With the right kind of college education, Daniel could do great things,”says Berkeley Springs High School principal George Ward, “But so many smart rural kids fall through the cracks. Top schools don’t know Daniel exists. “In an ideal world, the nation’s elite schools would enroll the most qualified students. But that’s not how it works. Applicants whose parents are alums get special treatment, as do athletes and rich kids. Underrepresented minorities are also given preference. Thirty years of affirmative action have changed the complexion of mostly white universities; now about 13 percent of all undergraduates are black or Latino. But most come from middle-and upper-middle-class families. Poor kids of all ethnicities remain scarce. A recent study by the Century Foundation found that at the nation’s 146 most competitive schools, 74 percent of students came from upper-middle-class and wealthy families, while only about 5 percent came from families with an annual income of roughly $ 35,000 or less. Many schools say diversity —racial, economic and geographic —is key to maintaining intellectually vital campuses. But Richard Kahlenberg of the Century Foundation says that even though colleges claim they want poor kids, “they don’t try very hard to find them.”As for rural students like Spangenburger, many colleges don’t try at all. “Unfortunately, we go where we can generate a sizable number of potential applicants, “ says Tulane admissions chief Richard Whiteside, who recruits aggressively —and in person —from metropolitan areas. Kids in rural areas get aglossy brochure in the mail. Carnegie Mellon’s dean of admissions, Michael Steidel, drives through Berkeley Springs a few times a year, but he’s never stopped to scout for students. He cuts through the small mining town in the Blue Ridge Mountains en route from the Pittsburgh campus to more affluent high schools around Washington, D. C. The admissions office doesn’t have the money or the time, he says, to help rural kids unravel the admissions process. “Recruiting kids like that is almost one-on-one.” he says. When prestigious colleges do reach out to rural students, they often focus on local applicants. Dartmouth encourages applications from kids in New England farm towns. Every year Cornell accepts 175 transfer students from area community colleges, where these kids often end up. Even when poor rural students have the grades for top colleges, their high schools often don’t know how to get them there. Admissions officers rely on guidance counselors to direct them to promising prospects. In affluent high schools, guidance counselors often have personal relationships with both kids and admissions officers. “In rural areas, a teacher, a counselor or even an alumnus can help put a rural student on our radar screen”, says Wesleyan admissions dean Nancy Meislahn. “But poor rural schools rarely have college advisers with those connections; without them, admission can be a crapshoot”, says Carnegie Mellon’s Steidel. Spangenburger would like to roll the dice; he’s just not sure how. Tall, soft-spoken and handsome, Spangenburger is the cream of the 660 students in his school. More than half his classmates live below the poverty line. Just 40 percent of graduates get some higher education, most often community college or vocational school. About 10 percent go to the state university in Morgantown; Spangenburger’s scores guarantee him a full scholarship there. But stepping from his small community to a pricey, competitive college requires a big leap of faith. Carnegie Mellon and Cornell cost about $ 35,000 a year, and figuring out how to cobble together loans, grants and financial aid has been daunting. Many of the adults in Spangenburger’s life —especially his parents(a nursing assistant and a factory worker)—are urging him to aim high. And he has pored over dozens of glossy brochures, eliminating any school that requires history(his least favorite subject). He’s studied the Web sites of his dream schools, but is too nervous to e-mail admissions officers or faculty members, even though colleges encourage prospective students to get in touch. He’s thinking about visiting Carnegie Mellon, but hasn’t yet. Berkeley Springs’ guidance counselor, Linda McGraw, has been some help. But she’s quick to point out that she’s more social worker than college adviser. “I have kids who have gotten pregnant, kids who have moved out from their families, “ says McGraw. “I wish I had more time for college advising, but I just don’t. “Months ago, Spangenburger grilled her about early action(nonbinding)versus Early Decision(binding). For other details about college life, he relies on friends of friends. Not all Berkeley Springs high-school students go it alone. Last summer, coach Angelo Luvara made 50 videotapes of Matt Rockwell, the school’s star football player, and sent them to coaches at top schools around the nation. Since then Rockwell, who has a B average, has been deluged with calls from coaches at Yale; the University of California, Berkeley; James Madison, and Eastern Kentucky University. “I want to help one smart, talented kid get his foot in the door, “ says Luvara. In the past fewyears some schools have begun to open that door a little wider. At MIT it’s something of a mission for Marilee Jones, the dean of admissions. Twenty years ago, 25 percent of each MIT class were first-generation college goers from poor backgrounds who used the celebrated engineering school as a ticket out of the blue-collar world. Five years ago, when that number dipped below 10 percent, Jones began scouring(搜索)the country for bright kids, and then paired the potential applicants with MIT faculty and students who could answer questions about college life. In four years Jones has doubled the number of poor first-generation students at MIT. As college-application deadlines loom in the next two months, Spangenburger reads and rereads the brochures he’s saved and tries to imagine himself amid the crowds of smiling, well-dressed students. “A couple of people have told me, ‘Buy a BMW, you’ll fit right in’, “ he says bleakly, “I wonder what they’ll make of a hick from West Virginia. “Spangenburger’s parents worry their son will be so intimidated by the culture of an elite school that he won’t attend, even if he gets in. “We know he’s afraid, “ says David Spangenburger. “He doesn’t think he’s good enough. “ He’s decided to apply to Carnegie Mellon and Cornell. If he doesn’t get in or can’t find the money to attend, he’ll settle for WVU. Although the computer-science program at WVU isn’t as famous, it’s not bad, either. “I’ve gotten myself this far, “ he says. “I’ll do what I have to do to make myself a success. “He speaks with a determination that any college admissions officer would love —if only they could hear him.1．Which of the following is an obstacle that hinders Spangenburger to go to a prestigious college?A．His home economic condition.B．His SAT scores.C．His short insecure study time.D．His ignorance to registration requirement.正确答案：A解析：第五句指出在spangenburger和他的梦想间只有两个障碍：他出身贫寒，在一所乡下高中读书。

英语六级阅读模拟练习题及答案-3

英语六级阅读模拟练习题及答案-3阅读理解是很多考生觉得很难又浪费时间最多，对于阅读理解主要就是多做练习，不断地练习才会有进步，因考试政策、内容不断转变与调整，以下是我给大家整理的供参考英语六级阅读模拟练习题及答案-3，希望可以帮到大家Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV if they everget home in time. There are similarities, of course, but the cops dont think much of them.The first difference is that a policemans real life revolves round the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down an alley after someone he wants to talk to.Little of his time is spent in chatting to scantily-clad (穿衣不多的) ladies or in dramatic confrontationswith desperate criminals. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty or not of stupid, petty crimes.Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as hes arrested, the story is over. i real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police little effortis spent on searching.Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do thathe often has to gather a lot of different evidence. So, as well asbeing overworked, a detective has to beout at all hours of the day and nightinterviewing his witnesses and persuade them usually against their own best interests, to help him.1.The first sentence implies that ________.A.the life of the real policemen and that of the policemen on TV are entirelydifferentB.the real policemen will find the similarities if they can get home in timeC.the real policemen seldom can get home in time to watch TVD.the policemen shown on TV can always get home in time2.It is essential for a policeman to be trained in criminal law _____.A.so that he can catch criminals in the streetsB.because many of the criminals he has to catch are dangerousC.so that he can justify his arrests in courtD.because he has to know nearly as much about law as a professional lawyer3.The everyday life of a policeman or detective is ______.A.exciting and glamorousB. full of dangerC.devoted mostly to routine mattersD. wasted on unimportant matters4.When murders and terrorist attacks occur,the police______.A.prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself awayB.make great efforts to try to track down their man1/ 3C.try to make a quick arrest in order to keep up their reputationually fail to produce results5.Whats the best title for the passage?A.Policemen and DetectiveB.Policemens Life-Fun and FantasyC.The Real Life of a PolicemanD.Drama and Reality参考答案：1.[C] 推理推断题。

2016英语六级阅读模拟试题及答案（3）Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.Caught in a squeeze between the health needs of aging populations on one hand and the financial crisis on the other, governments everywhere are looking for ways to slow the growth in health-care spending. Increasingly, they are looking to the generic-drugs (普通药物) industry as a savior. In November Japan's finance ministry issued a report complaining that the country's use of generics was less than a third of that in America or Britain. In the same month Canada's competition watchdog criticized the country's pharmacies for failing to pass on the savings made possible by the use of generic drugs. That greed, it reckoned, costs taxpayers nearly C$1 billion a year.Then on November 28th the European Commission issued the preliminary results of its year-long probe into druggiants in the European Union. The report reached a damning~, though provisional, conclusion: the drugs firms use a variety of unfair strategies to protect their expensive drugs by delaying the entry of cheaper generic opponents. Though this initial report does not carry the force of law (a final report is due early next year), it has caused much controversy. Neelie Kroes, the EU's competition commissioner, says she is ready to take legal action if the evidence allows.One strategy the investigators criticize is the use of the "patent duster( 专利群)". A firm keen to defend its drug due to go off-patent may file dozens or hundreds of new patents, often of dubious merit, to confuse and terrify potential copycats and maintain its monopoly. An unnamed drugs firm once took out 1,300 patents across the EU on a single drug. The report also suggests that out-of-court settlements between makers of patented drags and generics firms may be a strategy used by the former to delay market entry by the latter.According to EU officials, such misdeeds -have delayed the arrival of generic competition and the accompanying savings. On average, rite report estimates, generics arrived seven months after a patented drug lost its protection, thoughwhere the drug was a big seller the lag was four months. The report says taxpayers paid about q 3 billion more than they would have-had the generics gone on sale immediately.But hang on a minute, Though many of the charges of bad behavior leveled at the patented-drugs industry by EU investigators may well be true, the report seems to let the generics industry off the hook(钩子) too lightly. After all, if the drugs giants stand accused, in effect, of bribing opponents to delay the launch of cheap generics, shouldn't the companies that accepted those "bribes" also share the blame?56. Why are governments around the world seeking ways to reduce their health-care spending?A) They consider the generic-drugs industry as a savior.B) They are under the double pressure of aging group and financial crisis.C) Health-care spending has accounted too large proportion.D) Health-care spending has cost taxpayers too much income.57. What can we learn from the report issued by the European Commission?A) Drug firm will use just ways to protect their drags.B) Cheaper generic drugs are easy to enter market,C) The report has come to an ultimate conclusion.D) The final report may lead to commissioner's legal action.58. The investigators seriously condemned the drug firms for__________.A) they do not let their opponents to resort to the cometB) they use clusters of patents to protect their productsC) they bribe the cheaper generic opponentsD) trey do not pass on the savings made by use of generic drugs59. On average, the genetics will be delayed to enter the market by __________.A) seven monthsB) three monthsC) four monthsD) eleven months60. Which of the following accords with the author's view?A) Charges on patented-drug industry are anything but true.B) Generics industry is a sheer victim in the competition.C) Only drug giants are to blame.D) Exclusion of generics industry from taking responsibility is questionable.56．B)。

定位由题干中的governments及seeking ways to reduce the health-care spending定位到文章第一段第一句：Caught in a squeeze between the health needs of aging populations on one hand and the financial crisis on the other，governments everywhere are looking for ways to slow the growth in health-care spending．解推理判断题。

由定位句可知，各国政府一方面面临老龄化人群的健康需求，另一方面受到金融危机的影响，所以都在寻求减少医疗保健开支的途径，B)符合题意。
