part ii reading comprehension (35 minutes)
questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
passage one
too many vulnerable child-free adults are being ruthlessly(无情的)manipulated into parent-hood b y their parents , who think that happiness among older people depends on having a grand-child to spoil. we need an organization to help beat down the persistent campaigns of grandchildles s parents. it’s time to establish planned grandparenthood, which would have many global and local benefits. [page]
part of its mission would be to promote the risks and realities associated with being a grandpa rent. the staff would include depressed grandparents who would explain how grandkids break la mps, bite, scream and kick. others would detail how an hour of baby-sitting often turns into a crying marathon. more grandparents would testify that they had to pay for their grandchild’s expensive college education.
planned grandparenthood’s carefully written literature would detail all the joys of life grand-chi ld-free a calm living room, extra money for luxuries during the golden years, etc. potential gran dparents would be reminded that, without grandchildren around, it’s possible to have a conver sation with your kids, who----incidentally-----would have more time for their own parents . meanwhile, most children are vulnerable to the enormous influence exerted by grandchildless pa rents aiming to persuade their kids to produce children . they will take a call from a persistent parent, even if they’re loaded with works. in addition, some parents make handsome money offers payable upon the grandchild’s birth. sometimes these gifts not only cover expenses asso
ciated with the infant’s birth, but extras, too, like a vacation. in any case, cash gifts can weak en the resolve of even the noblest person.
at planned grandparenthood, children targeted by their parents to reproduce could obtain non-bi ased information about the insanity of having their own kids. the catastrophic psychological and economic costs of childbearing would be emphasized. the symptoms of morning sickness would be listed and horrors of childbirth pictured. a monthly newsletter would contain stories about overwhelmed parents and offer guidance on how childless adults can respond to the different lo bbying tactics that would-be grandparents employ.
when i think about all the problems of our overpopulated world and look at our boy grabbing at the lamp by the sofa, i wish i could have turned to planned grandparenthood when my pare nts were putting the grandchild squeeze on me.
if i could have, i might not be in this parenthood predicament( 窘境) . but here’s the crazy ir ony, i don’t want my child-free life back . dylan’s too much fun.

passage two
questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
ask most people how they define the american dream and chances are they’ll say, “success.”the dream of individual opportunity has been home in american since europeans discovered a “new world”in the western hemisphere. early immigrants like hector st. jean de crevecoeur praised highly the freedom and opportunity to be found in this new land. his glowing descriptio ns of a classless society where anyone could attain success through honesty and hard work fire d the imaginations of many european readers: in letters from an american farmer (1782) he wr ote. “we are all excited at the spirit of an industry which is unfettered (无拘无束的) and unre strained, because each person works for himself …we have no princes, for whom we toil (干苦力活)，starve, and bleed: we are the most perfect society now existing in the world.”the p romise of a land where “the rewards of a man’s industry follow with equal steps the progre ss of his labor”drew poor immigrants from europe and fueled national expansion into the we stern territories. [page]
our national mythology (神化) is full of illustration the american success story. there’s benjami n franklin, the very model of the self-educated, self-made man, who rose from modest origins t o become a well-known scientist, philosopher, and statesman. in the nineteenth century, horatio alger, a writer of fiction for young boys, became american’s best-selling author with rags-to-ri ches tales. the notion of success haunts us: we spend million every year reading about the rich and famous, learning how to “make a fortune in real estate with no money down,”and “dressing for success.”the myth of success has even invaded our personal relationships: toda
y it’s as important to be “successful”in marriage or parenthoods as it is to come out on t op in business.
but dreams easily turn into nightmares. every american who hopes to “make it”also knows t he fear of failure, because the myth of success inevitably implies comparison between the haves and the have-nots, the stars and the anonymous crowd. under pressure of the myth, we beco me indulged in status symbols: we try to live in the “right”neighborhoods, wear the “right”clothes, eat the “right”foods. these symbols of distinction assure us and others that we bel ieve strongly in the fundamental equality of all, yet strive as hard as we can to separate oursel ves from our fellow citizens.
26. what is the essence of the american dream according to crevecoeur?
a) people are free to develop their power of imagination.
b) people who are honest and work hard can succeed.
c) people are free from exploitation and oppression.
d) people can fully enjoy individual freedom.
27.by saying “the rewards of a man’s industry follow with equal steps the progress of his la bor”(line 10, para. 1), the author means __________ .
a) the more diligent one is, the bigger his returns
b) laborious work ensures the growth of an industry
c) a man’s business should be developed step by step
d) a company’s success depends on its employees’hard work
28. the characters described in horatio alger’s novels are people who _______.
a) succeed in real estate investment
b) earned enormous fortunes by chances
c) became wealthy after starting life very poor
d) became famous despite their modest origins
29. it can be inferred from the last sentence of the second paragraph that _________.
a) business success often contributes to a successful marriage
b) americans wish to succeed in every aspect of life
c) good personal relationships lead to business success
d) successful business people provide good care for their children
30. what is the paradox of american culture according to the author?
a) the american road to success is full of nightmares.
b) status symbols are not a real indicator of a person’s wealth.
c) the american dream is nothing but an empty dream.
d) what americans strive after often contradicts their beliefs.
passage three
questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
public distrust of scientists stems in part from the blurring of boundaries between science and t echnology, between discovery and manufacture. most government, perhaps all governments, justi fy public expenditure on scientific research in terms of the economic benefits the scientific ente rprise ha brought in the past and will bring in the future. politicians remind their voters of the splendid machines ‘our scientists’have invented, the new drugs to relieve old ailments (病痛), and the new surgical equipment and techniques by which previously intractable (难治疗的) conditions may now be treated and lives saved. at the same time, the politicians demand of sci entists that they tailor their research to ‘economics needs’, that they award a higher priority to research proposals that are ‘near the market’and can be translated into the greatest re turn on investment in the shortest time. dependent, as they are, on politicians for much of thei r funding, scientists have little choice but to comply. like the rest of us, they are members of a society that rates the creation of wealth as the greatest possible good. many have reservation s, but keep them to themselves in what they perceive as a climate hostile to the pursuit of un derstanding for its own sake and the idea of an inquiring, creative spirit. [page]
in such circumstances no one should be too hard on people who are suspicious of conflicts of i nterest. when we learn that the distinguished professor assuring us of the safety of a particular product holds a consultancy with the company making it, we cannot be blamed for wondering whether his fee might conceivably cloud his professional judgment. even if the professor holds no consultancy with any firm, some people many still distrust him because of his association wi th those who do, or at least wonder about the source of some his research funding.
this attitude can have damaging effects. it questions the integrity of individuals working in a pr ofession that prizes intellectual honesty as the supreme virtue, and plays into the hands of thos
e who would like to discredit scientists by representing then a venal (可以收买的). this makes i t easier to dismiss all scientific pronouncements, but especially those made by the scientists wh o present themselves as ‘experts’. the scientist most likely to understand the safety o
f a nuc lear reactor, for example, is a nuclear engineer declares that a reactor is unsafe, we believe hi m, because clearly it is not to his advantage to lie about it. if he tells us it is safe, on the oth er hand, we distrust him, because he may well be protectin
g the employer who pays his salary.
31. what is the chief concern of most governments when it comes to scientific research?
a) support from the votes.
b) the reduction of public expenditure.
c) quick economics returns.
d) the budget for a research project.
32. scientist have to adapt their research to ‘economic needs’in order to _________ .
a) impress the public with their achievements
b) pursue knowledge for knowledge’s sake
c) obtain funding from the government
d) translate knowledge into wealth
33. why won’t scientists complain about the government’s policy concerning scientific researc h?
a) they think they work in an environment hostile to the free pursuit of knowledge.
b) they are accustomed to keeping their opinions to themselves.
c) they know it takes patience to win support from the public.
d) they think compliance with government policy is in the interests of the public.
34. according to the author, people are suspicious of the professional judgment of scientists bec ause ___________ .
a) their pronouncements often turn out to be wrong
b) sometimes they hide the source of their research funding
c) some of them do not give priority to intellectual honesty
d) they could be influenced by their association with the project concerned
35. why does the author say that public distrust of scientists can have damaging effects?
a) it makes things difficult for scientists seeking research funds.
b) people would not believe scientists even when they tell the truth.
c) it may dampen the enthusiasm of scientists for independent research.
d) scientists themselves may doubt the value of their research findings.
passage four
questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.
in many ways, today’s business environment has changed qualitatively since the late 1980s. th e end of the cold war radically altered the very nature of the world’s politics and economics. in just a few short years, globalization has started a variety of trends with profound conseque nces: the opening of markets, true global competition, widespread deregulation (解除政府对……的控制) of industry, and an abundance of accessible capital. we have experienced both the ben
efits and risks of a truly global economy, with both wall street and main street (平民百姓) feeli ng the pains of economic disorder half a world away.
at the same time, we have fully entered the information age, starting breakthroughs in informat ion technology have irreversibly altered the ability to conduct business unconstrained by the tra ditional limitations of time or space. today, it’s almost impossible to imagine a world without intranets, e-mail, and portable computers. with stunning speed, the internet is profoundly changi ng the way we work, shop, do business, and communicate. [page]
as a consequence, we have truly entered the post-industrial economy. we are rapidly shifting fr om an economy based on manufacturing and commodities to one that places the greatest value on information, services, support, and distribution. that shift, in turn, place an unprecedented p remium on “knowledge workers,”a new class of wealthy, educated, and mobile people who view themselves as free agents in a seller’s market.
beyond the realm of information technology, the accelerated pace of technological change in vir tually every industry has created entirely new business, wiped out others, and produced a perva sive( 广泛的) demand for continuous innovation. new product, process ,and distribution technolo gies provide powerful levers for creating competitive value. more companies are learning the im portance of destructive technologies-----innovations that hold the potential to make a product lin e, or even an entire business segment, virtually outdated.
another major trend has been the fragmentation of consumer and business markets. there’s a growing appreciation that superficially similar groups of customers may have very different pref erences in terms of what they want to buy and how they want to buy it. now, new technolog y makes it easier, faster ,and cheaper to identify and serve targeted micro-markets in ways that were physically impossible or prohibitively expensive in the past. moreover, the trend feeds on itself, a business’s ability to serve sub-markets fuels customers’appetites for more and mor
e specialized offerings.
36. according to the first paragraph, the chances in the business environment in the past decad es can be attributed to __________.
a) technological advances
b) worldwide economic disorder
c) the fierce competition in industry
d) the globalization of economy
37. what idea does the author want to convey in the second paragraph ?
a) the rapid development of information technology has taken businessmen by surprise
b) information technology has removed the restrictions of time and space in business transactio ns
c) the internet, intranets, e-mail, and portable computers have penetrated every corner of the world.
d) the way we do business today has brought about startling breakthroughs in information tech nology.
38. if a business wants to thrive in the post-industrial economy,__________
a) it has to invest more capital in the training of free agents to operate in a seller’s market
b) it should try its best to satisfy the increasing demands of mobile knowledgeable people
c) it should not overlook the importance of information, services, support, and distribution
d) it has to provide each of its employees with the latest information about the changing mark et
39. in the author’s view, destructive technologies are innovations which _________
a) can eliminate an entire business segment
b) demand a radical change in providing services
c) may destroy the potential of a company to make any profit
d) call for continuous improvement in ways of doing business

2017年6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 II Listening Comprehension (30 minutes) Section A Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations.

Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard. 1. A) He would feel insulted. B) He would feel very sad. C) He would be embarrassed. D) He would be disappointed. 【答案】A 【解析】题目问如果男士在二手书店中发现了自己写的书，那么男士会感觉怎样。男士说到：如果他在二手书店发现了自己的书，他会认为这是种侮辱。因此选A。 2. A) They are worthy of a prize. B) They are of little value. C) They make good reading. D) They need improvement. 【答案】B 【解析】题目问男士的妻子认为他的书怎么样。男士说到：他最新的一本书是在2004年写的，当时在写的时候给他妻子看了一小部分。妻子认为他写的内容是垃圾。这表明他的妻子认为他写的书毫无价值。因此选B。 3. A) He seldom writes a book straight through. B) He writes several books simultaneously. C) He draws on his real-life experiences. D) He often turns to his wife for help. 【答案】A

Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) For investors who desire low risk and guaranteed income, US government bonds are a secure investment because these bonds have the financial backing and full faith and credit of the federal government. Municipal bonds, also secure, are offered by local governments and often have___ 36___such as tax-free interest. Some may even be___37___. Corporate bonds are a bit more risky. Two questions often___38___first-time corporate bond investors. The first is “If I purchase a corporate bond, do I have to hold it until the maturity date?” The answer is no. Bonds are bought and sold daily on___39___securities exchanges. However, if you decide to sell your bond before its maturity date, you’re not guaranteed to get the face value of the bond. For example, if your bond does not have___40___ that make it attractive to other investors, you may be forced to sell your bond at a___ 41___, i.e., a price less than the bond's face value. But if your bond is highly valued by other investors, you may be able to sell it at a premium, i. e ., a price above its face value. Bond prices generally___42___inversely (相反地) with current market interest rates. As interest rates go up, bond prices fall, and vice versa (反之亦然）. Thus, like all investments, bonds have a degree of risk. The second question is “ How can I___43___the investment risk of a particular bond issue?” Standard & Poor's and Moody’s Investors Service rate the level of risk of many corporate and government bonds. And___44___, the higher the market risk of a bond, the higher the interest rate. Investors will invest in a bond considered risky only if the 45 return is high enough. 注意：此部分试题请在答题卡2作答。

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. Into the Unknown The world has never seen population ageing before. Can it cope? Until the early 1990s nobody much thought about whole populations getting older. The UN had the foresight to convene a “world assembly on ageing” back in 1982, but that came and went. By 1994 the World Bank had noticed that something big was happening. In a report entitled “Averting the Old Age Crisis”, it argued that pension arrangements in most countries were unsustainable. For the next ten years a succession of books, mainly by Americans, sounded the alarm. They had titles like Young vs Old, Gray Dawn and The Coming Generational Storm, and their message was blunt: health-care systems were heading for the rocks, pensioners were taking young people to the cleaners, and soon there would be intergenerational warfare.

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 One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. In 1985 when a Japan Air Lines (JAL) jet crashed, its president, Yasumoto Takagi, called each victim’s family to apologize, and then promptly resigned. And in 1987, when a subsidiary of Toshiba sole sensitive military technology to the former Soviet Union, the chairman of Toshiba gave up his post. These executive actions, which Toshiba calls “the highest form of apology,”may seem bizarre to US managers. No one at Boeing resigned after the JAL crash, which may have been caused by a faulty Boeing repair. The difference between the two business cultures centers around different definitions of delegation. While US executives give both responsibility and authority to their employees, Japanese executives delegate only authority—the responsibility is still theirs. Although the subsidiary that sold the sensitive technology to the Soviets had its own management, the Toshiba top executives said they “must take personal responsibility for not creating an atmosphere throughout the Toshiba group that would make such activity unthinkable, even in an independently run subsidiary.” Such acceptance of community responsibility is not unique to businesses in Japan. School principals in Japan have resigned when their students committed major crimes after school hours. Even if they do not quit, Japanese executives will often accept primary responsibility in other ways, such as taking the first pay cut when a company gets into financial trouble. Such personal sacrifices, even if they are largely symbolic, help to create the sense of community and employee loyalty that is crucial to the Japanese way of doing business. Harvard Business School professor George Lodge calls the ritual acceptance of blame “almost a feudal (封建的) way of purging (清除) the community of dishonor,”and to some in the United States, such resignations look cowardly. However, in an era in which both business and governmental leaders seem particularly good at evading responsibility, many US managers would probably welcome an infusion (灌输) of the Japanese sense of responsibility, If, for instance,

2017年12月大学英语六级听力真题解析 2017.12月份的六级考试已经落下帷幕，以下是对听力部分考题的一个解析，希望对同学们有所帮助. Conversation One M: And now, for the latter side of the news, Europe is setting an example for the rest of the world when it comes to food waste. W: That’s right, John. This week, the Italian government passed legislation that aims to dramatically reduce the amount of food waste in the country. Q1:New laws have been put into place that will make it easier for farms and supermarkets to donate and sell foods to those who are in need. M: Yes, in an addition to this, businesses will now be rewarded for successful efforts to cut food waste. W: Italy is not the only country to focus on reducing food waste. Just earlier this year, Q2:the European parliament voted in favor of legislation that would stop grocery giants from unfair trading practices that result in overproduction, thus creating waste. M: In France, Q3:the government has banned supermarkets from throwing away edible foods and imposed harsh penalties on businesses that fail to comply with the regulations. W: While there is still much progress to be made, other countries could learn a thing or two from the example set by France and Italy. In the United Sates, up to 40% of all food goes uneaten. Despite the fact that one in seven American households lacks regular access to good food, Q4:one major cause of this problem is the confusion over food expiration labels, which are currently not regulated by the government. M: All this could change soon. This wave of new laws in Europe will definitely put more pressure on law makers to reduce food waste here. We turn now to a
