5、ation.此次六级作文的自由度很大，看似给出了提纲，实际上具体的观点全靠个人发挥。第一段需要点明大学排名这个现象，第二段需要铺陈不同人的观点，第三段要陈述自己的观点。大学排名这个题目，实际上涉及到了对了大学的理解，对于大学排名标准的理解，以及对于大学排名的目的的理解。而这件事更加离不开中国具体的国情，新中国50 年代人至今受教育的情况，90 后择校的情况，目前大学的情况，考生发挥的空间可以纵横数十年的教育史，并且可以深入探讨教育的本质。当然，对于大多数考生来说，凑满150 个字万岁！那么，模板又可以派上用场了。模板一1.Different people have different view

6、s on2.Some people perfer,3.Others tend to,4.As to me,I agree with/to(1)开门见山直入主体，表明对某事人们的不同看法。(2)表明一部分人的看法。(3)另一部分的看法。(4)作者的看法我们这里放出来的这篇文章，语言流畅，观点清晰，多处表述有闪光点。Reading Comprehension（Skimming and Scanning）1A not be sustained in the long term解析：关键字 1994 对应第一段第三行，题干中unsustainable 即选项 A 中 sustained的反义表达方式。

7、选择A。2B Intergenerational conflicts will intensify.解析：从书名定位到原文第二段，heading for the rock,the cleaner,都暗示了两代人之间的问题，最后的 warfare 则一目了然地指出了该矛盾。3D politicians are afraid of losing votes in the next election解析：首先需要理解题目意图，即为何养老机制改革迟迟不能进行，然后定位到文章第四段，其实只要从段落中politician 这一关键字就能选定D 选项。4A allow people to work long

8、er解析：从题干中 the most effective method找到第五段第三句原话，直接选择 A 选项。5D younger workers are readily available解析：题目中employer 为关键字，找到第六段，该段看似没有直接提到为什么雇主不愿意雇佣 old workers，但从其不断分析新涌现出来的劳动力替代者，可以总结的出 D 选项，即年轻劳动力的供给已足以满足企业需求。6B large numbers of immigrants from overseas解析：这道题间接考察了学生变换思维的能力，Japan 在文中一时难以找到，但其所代表的发达国家群体

9、developed countries 却出现在了第七段，而该段恰恰揭示了发达国家靠移民劳动力寻求养老机制危机一时的缓解的举措。7B They find it hard to balance career and family.解析：compromise 关键字找到第九段，关键字出现的句子前一句就是B 选项。8be innovative and take risks than younger ones解析：题目中 old societies 关键字对应到倒数第六段第三行，题目中的less inclined正好与原文中的 more strongly disinclined 形成对照，所以答案只需

10、摘录之后的原文即可，即 take risks than younger ones.9mostly have families解析：题目中关键字 intergenerational warfare对应到原文倒数第五段。第二句直接对第一句做出了解释，摘录即可。10military service解析：要理解题目中less willing to 的含义，即不情愿，这样定位到倒数第三段第一句的 reluctant，commit sth.to sth.，空格内需要填写名词，参照原文，即military serviceListeningListening ComprehensionComprehensio

17、作家提到作者的经历和写作。虽然说道some experiences overwhelm everyone,但是后面的 but 暗示了答案，stand aside、detachment都对应了 C 选项。22.What does the woman say about British railways?【答案】B Like it or not,you have to use them.【解析】在对话一开始，女士就提到了Theres only one railway system,if you dont like a particular railway,you cant go and use a

18、nother.因为只有一条铁路，即使不喜欢，也只能乘坐，换句话说不论喜欢与否都得用它。因此选择B。23.What do some people who write to the man complain about?【答案】D The monopoly of British Railways.【解析】对话中谈及monopoly，铁路垄断，因此选 D。其他选项均未涉及。24.What does the man say threatens the existence of railways?【答案】B Competition from other modes of transport.【解析】对话

20、着更多例子表明南极洲的冰盖在过去的130 万年间至少坍塌过一次。相关高等学府的学者和科学家也相继用实验证明南极洲西部曾是一片汪洋。最后引用Herman Engleheart 的话，再次提醒我们，西南极洲大冰原很可能再次融化消失。其实按常理来说，如果听力文章比较有难度的话，题目的难度相对应会降低。所以大家在遇到此类题型时不必惊慌。提取关键信息、边听边记笔记，运用好背景知识等就能把题目做出来。平时也要注意扩大阅读范围，增长见识。关于环境保护和全球变暖之类的文章屡见不鲜，要求考生在这方面要引起足够的重视。难点词汇：West Antarctic ice sheet 西南极洲大冰原 ice shelf

21、冰架 anchored 固定的fossil 化石 microscopic marine plants 海洋微生物 geological 地质的答案及解析：26.What is one of the most frightening threats of global warming according tothe passage?【解析】C)Many coastal cities will be covered with water.细节题。本题不难，从听力开头即可听到“raising sea level so much that coastalcities from New York to

23、【解析】A）It collapsed at least once during the past 1.3 million years.细节题。注意提取关键信息“new evidence reveals that all or most of the Antarctic ice sheet collapsed at least once during the past 1.3 million years”所以选 A 选项。29.What the scientists latest findings suggest?【解析】A)The West Antarctic region was once

24、a open ocean.细节题。听力最后的例子说明了这一点“which suggest that the region was once open ocean not solid ice”，而其他选项都不是最新的发现。Passage Two30 B）Whether a deleted photo is immediately removed from the web.【解析】听力一开始作者就建议我们尝试删除自己上传的照片“Take a photo and upload it to Facebook,then after a day or so,note what the URL link t

25、o the pictureis and then delete it.”，由此可知应该选 B。31 B)The way they store data.【解析】“Why do deleted photos stick around so long?The problem relates to the way data is stored on large websites”，从这句话可知图片之所以不能立即删除跟它们存储的方式有关。32 C)When the URL is reused.【解析】“In the case of Facebook,the company says data may

26、hang around until the URL in question is reused”，从这句话可知只有URL 被再次用到才会被删除。Passage Three33.A解析：第一段原文可以找到对应句子，即some iced coffees contain as many calories as a hot dinner.34.B解析：第一段原文中有对应语句，即Better skip dinner or hit the gym afterwards.35.C解析：在此句中，“The WCRF has estimated that 19,000 cancers a year in Bri

31、t science and technology alone were no guarantee fora better world.推论题。我们首先比较容易排除A 和 C 项。B 项具有迷惑性，关键是看“the stabilityof a society depended heavily on humanistic study”这个选项仔细看就会发现说得太绝对了，社会的问题主要是靠人文主义的研究？显然不是很恰当。我们从下面那句也可以推断出选 D 比较恰当。“Two world wars and a Great Depression rocked the confidence of many

32、people that scientific expertise alone could create a prosperous and ordered world.”54)C America is lagging behind in the STEMS disciplines.细节题。主要在第二段里找答案。从段落后两句“There is considerable and justifiedconcern that the United States is falling behind much of the rest of the developedworld in these essent

33、ial disciplines.”我们可以推断出是选 C 选项。A 和 D 选项比较容易排除。不选 B 选项，因为文章中“India,China,Japan,and other regions seem to be seizing technological leadership.”seem to 表明这几个国家只是有种趋势，但还没有 have overtaken。55)A Insufficient funding.细节题。我们在第三段里可以找到答案。从“are seriously underfunded”“Humanists are usually among the lowest-paid

34、 faculty members”这些信息中，可以很快知道是 A 选项。56)C Humanistic thinking helps cultivate and define our culture and values.细节题。本题不难。作者为什么如此着重人文主义的研究，其他三项都是非常具体的，且都不是重点。只有 C 选项符合。且我们从最后这一句“But try to imagine our world as well without the remarkable works that have defined our culture and values.”及作者的语气可以更加确定是C 选

35、项。Passage Two57.D.It will be some time before a new Einstein emerges.解析：这道题针对开头两节。A 和 C 答案比较容易排除，A 说爱因斯坦把数学推到了一个极限，C 说在将来的两百年都不会有物理学家超过爱因斯坦，这两个都明显不合文章大意。B 答案说需要一个爱因斯坦才能建立一种大一统理论，属于过度推理，并且细节性太强了。D 答案是正确答案，很多同学不敢选D 的原因是，因为有些科学家们认为爱因斯坦或许还没有诞生或许还是个小婴儿，他们认为这样一来就有可能爱因斯坦已经存在了。但是这句话里面的爱因斯坦是代表伟大的科学家的意思，那么这个题

36、目选择D 就是正确的，大家都同意的是像爱因斯坦那样伟大的科学家还需要一定的时间才会出现。58.B.His independent and abstract thinking解析：B 他独立与抽象思维能力。这一段是文章中间部分的内容概括。根据上下文意思推断，爱因斯坦成功的原因，不能说是他在音乐方面的天分，也不能说他的努力或者他在数学方面的深厚基础，因此答案选择B。59.D.They often go into fields yielding greater financial benefits.解析：正确答案选择D。这段文章是在问今天的物理学家们的情况，A 说他们缺乏分析能力，B 说他们擅长处理

37、实际问题，C 说他们重视发表文章，都是从根据文章细节中捏造出来的错误选项。D 是对于文章内容的一个总结概括，数量众多的物理学家进入了更有经济利益的领域。60.D.Nobody will read papers on apparently ridiculous theories.解析：正确答案选择 D。结合 Greene 讲的话，他说 What an idea!还说是需要把头往墙上撞的人才会相信能找到个解决方案呢！说明内容实在是比较荒诞。61.B.was little known in academic circles解析：正确答案选择B，说的是爱因斯坦在学术圈里面默默无闻，跟原文里面的“by

38、avirtual unknown”相对应。有迷惑性的选择项是D,因为文中提到了爱因斯坦的文章没有配上脚注和注释 footnote and citations.但是 D 选择项是说，爱因斯坦不懂得论文的格式，这个属于过度推理了。Cloze62 B set out set out plans 表示制定计划63 D abandoning abandon 放弃，once unshakeable orthodoxy 表示曾经不可动摇的做法，也就是现在要放弃了。64 A with struggle with 表示同斗争，介词搭配，这里表示设法应对广告收入和报纸销售量下降的局面。65 B intends i

39、ntend to 表示打算,从后面的 at the beginning of 2011，可知还没有这么做，只是计划或者打算这么做。66 A exceeded 超过，是说当用户每月阅读文章超过一定量时就要收费。67 A on 和 side 搭配，on the side of 表示拥护；站在一边。68 D charge 本词在文章中多次出现，charge sb 表示向某人收费。69 C such as 表示举例，从后面举 Londons Evening Standard 作为例子，可知应该选 such as.70 B free 前面提到 abandon readership revenue，即放弃

40、读者收益，由此可知应该是 make print editions free.71 C acknowledged 表示承认，这里表示 Arthur Sulzberger 承认这么做是一种赌博。72 C bet 打赌，赌注，从前面的 gamble 可知应该选 bet。73 C circulation 发行量，从后面的数量可知应该选circulation。74 A behind NYT 排名第三，即排在 the Wall Street Journal and USA Today 后面。75 B While while 在这里表示对比，从上下文可知NYT 与美国其他报纸不同。76 D claim 声称

41、，宣称，这里是说NYT 声称自己是全国范围的报纸。77 C maintains 维持，运营，即 NYT 还在世界其他地方运营着26 个办公室。78 A like 从下文可知 NYT 和印刷行业的其他公司一样，也受到金融危机的影响，所以选 like，表示同一样。79 D serious 严重的，考察形容词与名词的搭配，从下文的数据可知遭受严重经济损失。80 C suffered 遭受，suffer a loss 遭受损失，常见搭配。81 D loan 贷款，前文提到公司损失了很多钱，所以需要从别处借钱来补充资金。Translation82.There is no denying that you

42、 _(越仔细越好)in dealing with thismatter.解析：can never be too careful/can not be too careful【考点解释】本题考查“越仔细越好”“再也不为过”的固定搭配，即 can never be too/can not be too+adj.【原句精释】无可否认，处理这件事，越仔细越好。83.Only when I reached my thirties _(我才意识到读书是不能被忽视的)解析：did I realize that reading cannot be neglecteddid I realize that rea

43、ding is unignorable【考点解释】本题考查由 only when 引起的局部倒装。当 only when 置于句首，主句用局部倒装，即将助动词置于主语前面。only when 引导句子时态为过去时（reached），为保持时态一致，主句助动词用 did；注意被动语态的使用，reading 与 neglect 为被动关系。同时也可以使用 be+adj 的结构。【原句精释】直到三十岁，我才意识不能忽视读书。84.Much _(使研究人员感到惊讶)，the outcome of the experiment was far better than they had expected.

44、解析：to the researchers surprise【考点解释】本题考查固定搭配 to ones surprise 使惊讶的是【原句精释】让研究人员大为惊讶的是，实验结果比他们的预计好得多。85.Oh,my,I cant find my key;_（我一定是把它放在哪儿了）。解析：I must have left/put it somewhere.【考点解释】本题考查对过去事情的肯定的猜测，即must have+过去分词，leave 与put 都有放置的意思，但leave 强调遗忘在，较之 put，leave 更贴合题意。【原句精释】天啊，我找不到钥匙。我一定是把它放在哪儿了。86I _(宁愿加入你们去做义工)than go to the beachfor a holiday.解析：would rather join you as a volunteer【考点解释】考查结构“宁愿也不愿”,因题干中已存在“than go”的结构，只能使用“would rather do rather than do”。加入 join sb【原句精释】我宁愿加入你们去做义工，也不愿到海边去度假。
