月大学英语六级考试真题及答案解析(第一套)

Part I Writing (30 minutes)

Directions:
Suppose
you
are
asked
to
give
advice
on
whether
to
attend
a
vocational college or a university, write an essay to state your opinion. You are
required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

【参考范文】

Whether to Attend a Vocational College or a University?

It

s an undisputable truth that virtually all high school graduates will
encounter the choices between a vocational college and a university. And when it
comes to this question,
students

ideas are not cut from the same cloth. In point
of
which
to
choose
and
what
to
be
taken
into
consideration,
my
advices
are
as
follow.

In
the
first
place,
we
should
be
conscious
of
the
fact
that
both
of
the
two
choices
have its own superiorities. For instance, a vocational college specializes in
cultivating
human
resources
with
practical
capabilities;
while
a
university
serves
as
the
cradle
of
academic
researchers
in
different
fields.
Then
it
does
follow
that
high school graduates should have a clear picture of themselves. That is to say,
they
should
know
their
merits
and
demerits
and
their
choices
must
give
play
to
their
strengths whilst circumvent weaknesses. In addition, interest is the best teacher
and
it

s
also
the
premise
of
learning
on
one

s
own
initiative.
Thus
interest
must
be
taken
into
account
because
it
can
not
only
decide
how
far
one
can
reach
academically and professionally but also how happy and fulfilled one will be.

In
brief,
all
above
just
goes
to
show
that
there
really
is
no
one-size-fits-all
answer
for
the
question.
The
key
lies
in
a
clear
cognition,
accurate
self-positioning
and the interest of oneself. Only then can every one find a right path that works
best for us.

Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)

Section A

Directions:
In
this
section,
there
is
a
passage
with
ten
blanks.
You
are
required
to
select
one
word
for
each
blank
from
a
list
of
choices
given
in
a
word
bank
following
the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each
choice
in the bank is identified by
a letter.
Please mark the corresponding letter
for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not
use any of the words in the bank more than once.

Let

s all stop judging people who talk to themselves. New research says that
those
who
can

t
seem
to
keep
their
inner
monologues(
独白
)
in
are
actually
more
likely
to stay on task, remain __26__ better and show improved perception capabilities.
Not bad, really, for some extra muttering.

According to a series of experiments published in the Quarterly Journal of
Experimental Psychology by professors Gary Lupyan and Daniel Swignley, the act of
using verbal clues to __27__ mental pictures helps people function quicker.

In
one
experiment,
they
showed
pictures
of
various
objects
to
twenty
__28__
and
asked
them
to
find
just
one
of
those,
a
banana.
Half
were
__29__
to
repeat
out
loud
what
they
were
looking
for
and
the
other
half
kept
their
lips
__30__.
Those
who
talked
to
themselves
found
the
banana
slightly
faster
than
those
who
didn

t

the
researchers
say.
In
other
experiments,
Lupyan
and
Swignley
found
that
__31__
the
name
of
a
common
product when on the hunt for it helped quicken someone

s pace, but talking about
uncommon items showed no advantage and slowed you down.

Common research has long held that talking themselves through a task helps
children learn, although doing so when you

ve __32__ matured is not a great sign
of __33__. The two professors hope to refute that idea, __34__ that just as when
kids
walk
themselves
through
a
process,
adults
can
benefit
from
using
language
not
just to communicate, but also to help

augment thinking

.

Of course, you are still encouraged to keep the talking at library tones and,
whatever
you
do,
keep
the
information
you
share
simple,
like
a
grocery
list.
At
any
__35__, there

s still such a thing as too much information.

26.
【解析】
F
。空格前的
remain
为系动词,因此空格处需要填入 一个形容词;根据前
面的句意
“……更有可能坚持做一件事”

可知
focused
最为符合,
表示
“保持全神贯注”

因此本题选F


27.
【解析】
L
。根据空格前的
t o
可判断空格处应填入动词原形,根据句意,
“使用口
头提示来记忆图像”,可知选项
L
符合。

28.
【解析】
0
。空格前是量词< br>twenty
,因此空格处需填入一个名词复数;再由前边的

In one experiment
”可知这是一个实验,所以这里选择
volunteers
(志愿者)最为合
适,故本题选
0


29.
【 解析】
H
。空格前后分别为
be
动词
were
和介词
to
,因此空格处需要填入一个动
词的被动语态;
根据句意,
“一半人被< br>_____
要大声地重复他们要找的东西,

可知
instructe d
(通知,指导)最为合适,因此本题答案选
H


30. 【解析】
J

根据句子结构可判断空格处需要填入一个形容词。
再由the
other
half
对应的是前边的
Half


可知这里的情况和前边的不同,前边说
repeat
out
loud
(大声地
重复),后边自然就是要表达“不说话”

的意思,
keep one

s lips sealed
即“闭上嘴
巴、不说话”的意思,故本题选
J


31.
【解析】
M

空格前的
that
引导的是 宾语从句,
空格与后面的名词词组
the
name
of
a common product
共同充当宾语从句的主语,因此空格处应填入动词的
-ing< br>形式,根据句
意可判断
uttering
更为合适,故本题选
M


32.
【解析】
A

空格所在句是一个现在完成时 态,
空格前后组成谓语动词
have
matured

因此空格处 实际上并不缺成分,只可能填入一个副词来修饰动词
matured
,根据单词意思,
这里应选
apparently


33.
【解析】
C
。根据空格前边的
a great sign of
可知 ,空格处缺少一个名词;再根
据句意,
“当你足够成熟时,
自言自语并不能显示出你的
_____


可知这里填入
brilliance
更为合 适。故本题选
C


34.
【解析】
D
。空格前边是一句完整的话,空格后是
that
从句,由此判断空格处
< br>填
入动词的
-ing
形式,作为前边句子的伴随状语,并引导后面的宾语从句; 分析选项,动词

-ing
形式只剩下
claiming
这一个词,故本题选
D


35.
【解析】
N
。空格处需要填入一个名词,与前边的
At < br>any
构成介词词组;结合整篇
文章的大意,此处填入
volume
最 为合适,故本题选
N


Section B

Directions:
In
this
section,
you
are
going
to
read
a
passage
with
ten
statements
attached
to
it.
Each
statement
contains
information
given
in
one
of
the
paragraphs.
Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a
paragraph
more
than
once.
Each
paragraph
is marked with a
letter. Answer the
questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.

Rich Children and Poor Ones Are Raised Very Differently

[A]
The lives
of
children
from
rich
and
poor
American
families
look
more
different than ever before.

[B]
Well-off
families
are
ruled
by
calendars,
with
children
enrolled
in
ballet,
soccer and after-school programs, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.
There are usually two parents, who spend a lot of time reading to children and
worrying about their anxiety levels and hectic schedules.

[C] In poor families, meanwhile, children tend to spend their time at home or
with extended family. They are more likely to grow up in neighborhoods that their
parents
say
aren

t
great
for
raising
children,
and
their
parents
worry
about
them
getting shot, beaten up or in trouble with the law.

[D]
The
class
differences
in
child
rearing
are
growing

a
symptom
of
widening
inequality with far-reaching consequences. Different upbringings set children on
different
paths
and
can
deepen
socioeconomic
divisions,
especially
because
education is strongly linked to earnings. Children grow up learning the skills to
succeed in their socioeconomic stratum (
阶层
), but not necessarily others.

[E]

Early childhood experiences can be very consequential for children

s
long-term
social,
emotional
and
cognitive
development,


said
Sean
Reardon,
professor of poverty and inequality in education at Stanford University.

And
because those influence educational success and later earnings, early childhood
experiences
cast
a
lifelong
shadow.

The
cycle
continues:
Poorer
parents
have
less
time
and
fewer
resources
to
invest
in
their
children,
which
can
leave
children
less
prepared for school and work, which leads to lower earnings.

[F]
American
parents
want
similar
things
for
their
children,
the
Pew
report
and
past
research
have
found:
for
them
to
be
healthy
and
happy,
honest
and
ethical,
caring
and
compassionate.
There
is
no
best
parenting
style
or
philosophy,
researchers
say,
and across income groups, 92% of parents say they are doing a good job at raising
their children. Yet they are doing it quite differently. Middle-class and higher-
income
parents
see
their
children
as
projects
in
need
of
careful
cultivation,
says
Annette
Lareau,
whose
groundbreaking
research
on
the
topic
was
published
in
her
book
Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race and Family Life. They try to develop their skills
through
close
supervision
and
organized
activities,
and
teach
children
to
question
authority figures and navigate elite institutions.

[G] Working-class parents, meanwhile, believe their children will naturally
thrive,
and
give
them
far
greater
independence
and
time
for
free
play.
They
are
taught
to be compliant and respectful to adults. There are benefits to both approaches.
Working-class
children
are
happier,
more
independent,
complain
less
and
are
closer
with family members, Ms. Lareau found. Higher- income children are more likely to
declare
boredom
and
expect
their
parents
to
solve
their
problems.
Yet
later
on,
the
more affluent children end up in college and on the way to the middle class, while
working- class children tend to struggle. Children from higher-income families are
likely to have the skills to navigate bureaucracies and succeed in schools and
workplaces, Ms. Lareau said.

[H]

Do all parents want the most success for their children? Absolutely,


she
said.

Do
some
strategies
give
children
more
advantages
than
others
in
institutions?
Probably
they
do.
Will
parents
be
damaging
children
if
they
have
one
fewer organized activity? No, I really doubt it.


[I] Social scientists say the differences arise in part because low-income
parents have less money to spend on music class or preschool, and less flexible
schedules to take children to museums or attend school events. Extracurricular
activities reflect the differences in child rearing in the Pew survey, which was
of a nationally representative sample of 1,807 parents. Of families earning more
than $$75,000 a year, 84% say their children have participated in organized sports
over
the
past
year,
64%
have
done
volunteer
work
and
62%
have
taken
lessons
in
music,
dance
or
art.
Of
families
earning
less
than
$$30,000,
59%
of
children
have
done
sports,
37% have volunteered and 41% have taken arts classes.

[J] Especially in affluent families, children start young. Nearly half of
high-earning, college-graduate parents enrolled their children in arts classes
before
they
were
5,
compared
with
one-fifth
of
low-income,
less-
educated
parents.
Nonetheless,
20%
of
well-off
parents
say
their
children

s
schedules
are
too
hectic,
compared with 8% of poorer parents.

[K] Another example is reading aloud, which studies have shown gives children
bigger
vocabularies
and
better
reading
comprehension
in
school.
71%
of
parents
with
a college degree say they do it every day, compared with 33% of those with a high
school diploma or less. White parents are more likely than others to read to their
children
daily,
as
are
married
parents.
Most
affluent
parents
enroll
their
children
in
preschool
or
day
care,
while
low-income
parents
are
more
likely
to
depend
on
family
members.
Discipline
techniques
vary
by
education
level:
8%
of
those
with
a
postgraduate
degree
say
they
often
beat
their
children,
compared
with
22%
of
those
with a high school degree or less.

[L] The survey also probed attitudes and anxieties. Interestingly, parents


attitudes
toward
education
do
not
seem
to
reflect
their
own
educational
background
as
much
as
a
belief
in
the
importance
of
education
for
upward
mobility.
Most
American
parents say they are not concerned about their children

s grades as long as they
work
hard.
But
50%
of
poor
parents
say
it
is
extremely
important
to
them
that
their
children earn a college degree, compared with 39% of wealthier parents.

[M] Less- educated parents, and poorer and black and Latino parents are more
likely to believe that there is no such thing as too much involvement in a child

s education. Parents who are white, wealthy or college- educated say too much
involvement can be bad. Parental anxieties reflect their circumstances. High-
earning parents are much more likely to say they live in a good neighborhood for
raising
children.
While
bullying
is
parents

greatest
concern
over
all,
nearly
half
of low-income parents worry their child will get shot, compared with one-fifth of
high-income
parents.
They
are
more
worried
about
their
children
being
depressed
or
anxious.

[N]
In
the
Pew
survey,
middle-class
families
earning
between
$$30,000
and
$$75,000
a
year
fell
right
between
working-class
and
high- earning
parents
on
issues
like
the
quality
of
their
neighborhood
for
raising
children,
participation
in
extracurricular activities and involvement in their children

s education.

[O]
Children
were
not
always
raised
so
differently.
The
achievement
gap
between
children from high- and low-income families is 30-40% larger among children born
in 2001 than those born 25 years earlier, according to Mr. Reardon

s research.
People used to live near people of different income levels; neighborhoods are now
more segregated by income. More than a quarter of children live in single-parent
households

a historic high, according to Pew

and these children are three
times
as
likely
to
live
in
poverty
as
those
who
live
with
married
parents.
Meanwhile,
growing
income
inequality
has
coincided
with
the
increasing
importance
of
a
college
degree for earning a middle-class wage.

[P]
Yet
there
are
recent
signs
that
the
gap
could
be
starting
to
shrink.
In
the
past
decade,
even
as
income
inequality
has
grown,
some
of
the
socioeconomic
differences in parenting, like reading to children and going to libraries, have
narrowed.

[Q] Public policies aimed at young children have helped, including public
preschool
programs
and
reading
initiatives.
Addressing
differences
in
the
earliest
years, it seems, could reduce inequality in the next generation.

36.
Working-class
parents
teach
their
children
to
be
obedient
and
show
respect
to adults.

37.
American
parents,
whether
rich
or
poor,
have
similar
expectations
of
their
children despite different ways of parenting.

38.
While
rich
parents
are
more
concerned
with
their
children

s
psychological
well- being, poor parents are more worried about their children

s safety.

39.
The
increasing
differences
in
child
rearing
between

reflect growing social inequality.

40. Parenting approaches of working-class and affluent families both have

Section C

Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. 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 Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.

Tennessee

s
technical
and
community
colleges
will
not
outsource(


)
management
of
their
facilities
to
a
private
company,
a
decision
one
leader
said
was
bolstered by an analysis of spending at each campus.

In
an
email
sent
Monday
to
college
presidents
in
the
Tennessee
Board
of
Regents
system,
outgoing
Chancellor
John
Morgan
said
an
internal
analysis
showed
that
each
campus

spending on facilities management fell well below the industry standards
identified
by
the
state.
Morgan
said
those
findings

which
included
data
from
the
system

s
13
community
colleges,
27
technical
colleges
and
six
universities

were
part of the decision not to move forward with Governor Bill Haslam

s proposal to
privatize management of state buildings in an effort to save money.


While these numbers are still being validated by the state, we feel any
adjustments
they
might
suggest
will
be
immaterial,

Morgan
wrote
to
the
presidents.

System
institutions
are
operating
very
efficiently
based
on
this
analysis,
raising
the question of the value of pursuing a broad scale outsourcing initiative.


Worker

s advocates have criticized Haslam

s plan, saying it would mean some
campus workers would lose their jobs or benefits. Haslam has said colleges would
be free to opt in or out of the out souring plan, which has not been finalized.

Morgan
notified
the
Haslam
administration
of
his
decision
to
opt
out
in
a
letter
sent last week. That letter, which includes several concerns Morgan has with the
plan, was originally obtained by The Commercial Appeal in Memphis.

In
an
email
statement
from
the
state

s
Office
of
Customer
Focused
Government,
which is examining the possibility of outsourcing, spokeswoman Michelle R. Martin
said officials were still working to analyze the data from the Board of Regents.
Data on management expenses at the college system and in other state departments
will be part of a

business justification

the state will use as officials
deliberate the specifics of an outsourcing plan.


The state

s facilities management project team is still in the process of
developing
its
business
justification
and
expects
to
have
that
completed
and
available
to
the
public
at
the
end
of
February,

Martin
said.

At
this
time
there
is nothing to take action on since the analysis has yet to be completed.


Morgan

s comments on outsourcing mark the second time this month that he has
come out against one of Haslam

s plans for higher education in Tennessee. Morgan
said last week that he would retire at the end of January because of the governor

s proposal to split off six universities of the Board of Regents system and create
separate
governing
boards
for
each
of
them.
In
his
resignation
letter,
Morgan
called
the reorganization

unworkable

.

46. What do we learn about the decision of technical and community colleges in
Tennessee?

A) It is backed by a campus spending analysis.

B)It has been flatly rejected by the governor.

C)It has neglected their faculty

s demands.

D)It will improve their financial situation.

Passage Two

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

Beginning
in
the
late
sixteenth
century,
it
became
fashionable
for
young
aristocrats
to
visit
Paris,
Venice,
Florence,
and
above
all,
Rome,
as
the
culmination(
终极
)
of
their
classical
education.
Thus
was
born
the
idea
of
the
Grand
Tour, a practice which introduced Englishmen, Germans, Scandinavians, and also
Americans
to
the
art
and
culture
of
France
and
Italy
for
the
next
300
years.
Travel
was
arduous
and
costly
throughout
the
period,
possible
only
for
a
privileged
class

the
same
that
produced
gentlemen
scientists,
authors,
antique
experts,
and
patrons
of the arts.

The Grand Tourist was
typically a young man with a thorough grounding
in Greek
and Latin literature as well as some leisure time, some means, and some interest
in art. The German traveler Johann Winckelmann pioneered the field of art history
with his comprehensive study of
Greek and
Roman
sculpture;
he was portrayed by his
friend
Anton
Raphael
Mengs
at
the
beginning
of
his
long
residence
in
Rome.
Most
Grand
Tourists, however, stayed for briefer periods and set out with less scholarly
intentions,
accompanied
by
a
teacher
or
guardian,
and
expected
to
return
home
with
souvenirs
of
their
travels
as
well
as
an
understanding
of
art
and
architecture
formed
by exposure to great masterpieces.

London
was
a
frequent
starting
point
for
Grand
Tourists,
and
Paris
a
compulsory
destination;
many
traveled
to
the
Netherlands,
some
to
Switzerland
and
Germany,
and
a very few adventurers to Spain, Greece, or Turkey. The essential place to visit,
however, was Italy. The British traveler Charles Thompson spoke for many Grand
Tourists
when
in
1744
he
described
himself
as

being
impatiently
desirous
of
viewing
a country so famous in history, a country which once gave laws to the world, and
which
is
at
present
the
greatest
school
of
music
and
painting,
contains
the
noblest
productions
of
sculpture
and
architecture,
and
is
filled
with
cabinets
of
rarities,
and
collections
of
all
kinds
of
historical
relics

.
Within
Italy,
the
great
focus
was
Rome,
whose
ancient
ruins
and
more
recent
achievements
were
shown
to
every
Grand
Tourist. Panini

s Ancient Rome and Modem Rome represent the sights most prized,
including
celebrated
Greco-Roman
statues
and
views
of
famous
ruins,
fountains,
and
churches. Since there were few museums anywhere in Europe before the close of the
eighteenth century, Grand Tourists often saw paintings and sculptures by gaining
admission
to
private
collections,
and
many
were
eager
to
acquire
examples
of
Greco-Roman
and
Italian
art
for
their
own
collections.
In
England,
where
architecture was increasingly seen as an aristocratic pursuit, noblemen often
applied
what
they
learned
from
the
villas
of
Palladio
in
the
Veneto
and
the
evocative
(
唤起回忆的
) ruins of Rome to their own country houses and gardens.

51. What is said about the Grand Tour?

A) It was fashionable among young people of the time.

B)It was unaffordable for ordinary people.

C)It produced some famous European artists.

月大学英语六级考试真题及答案解析(第二套)

Part I Writing (30 minutes)

Directions:
Suppose
you
are
asked
to
give
advice
on
whether
to
major
in
science
or humanities at college, write an essay to state your opinion. You are required
to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

【参考范文】

Whether to Major in Science or Humanities at College?

Nowadays,
as
the
whole
society
place
increasingly
considerable
value
on
education,
the question
of whether to major in
science
or humanities
at
college is
not only a concern for students, but also a focal point for parents. Some believe
that
to
dig
into
science
is
a
better
choice
because
it
promises
us
a
brighter
future;
others may hold the opposite view that humanity knowledge is the foundation of
humanity quality.

As
for
me,
both
arguments
are
justified.
However,
I
believe
that
the
important
thing is not about which subject is better, what matters most is people who will
have to make the decision. In other words, we should not lay one-sided emphasis on
the advantages of either subject; on the contrary, the students themselves, their
interests
and
preferences,
pros
and
cons
are
supposed
to
be
taken
into
consideration.
For example, if a student is more adept at humanity and that

s where his real
interests lie, then he should dedicate to the study on humanity.

Whether
to
major
in
science
or
humanities
is
a
critical
choice
for
every
student
because
its
result
has
a
profound
influence
on
personal
career
development
and
life
style.
Thus
we
should
figure
out
what
we
really
care
about
so
as
not
to
put
the
cart
before the horse.
