The USDC has collected over 6 200 objects to display in the new, 20 000-square-foot museum.Building started on the museum in 2014.

The city grants 5 100 food vending permits every two years. The permit is issued by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Most of the permit holders pay $200 to renew their permit every two years. Some permit holders rent their license, or permit, for a profit. Some cart or truck operators pay more than $20 000 for a food vending permit.Because there is greater demand than supply of permits, a black market for the licenses has emerged. It is reported that transferring or renting these permits to another vendor is illegal. But many vendors have turned to this illegal black market forpermits. The vendors say getting a cart or truck permit can take 10 to 15 years. Some vendors work the street unlicensed.3. How much should the permit holders pay to renew the permit?4. Why has a black market for the licenses emerged?A burial place in Washington, DC is using goats instead of poison to remove weeds. Congressional Cemetery is near Capitol Hill. There are more than 65 000 graves there.In recent years, many weeds have grown in the cemetery. Officials did not want to usepoisons, to kill the weeds. The cemetery is near the Anacostia River. Officials have worked for many years to remove pollutants from the river, which runs through the city. So cemetery officials decided to use goats. The animals are less costly than chemicals and do not hurt the environment. And the goats eat a lot of weeds.The animals are owned by Mary Bowen, a farmer. She operates a company called Browsing Green Goats. The cemetery pays her company more than $11 000 to have the goats remove unwanted plants from each hectare of the cemetery. But Mary Bowen says that is about half the cost of using herbicides. She hopes the goats will help more people understand that they can keep their property free of weeds without hurting the environment.5. What new measure is taken to kill the weeds in Congressional Cemetery?6. Why is the new measure taken?7. What does Mary Bowen do?Section BConversation OneM: Ace Employment Agency.

I gained a shorthand and typing diploma at evening classes.M: That’s good. Now, where are you working at the moment?W: Well, I’ve got a job as a shorthand-typist. But I’m not enjoying it very much and it doesn’t pay very well.M: I see. Have you applied for any other jobs?W: Y es. I thought I’d like to be a policewoman. But they turned me down because I was too short.M: What would you like to do now, then?W: Well, I think I’d like to work in a travel agency.M: I see.

I’ve sort of done hotel work and I’ve also run a restaurant pub. And now I’ve got what you call a good old-fashioned pub. That is a public bar, with all the social games going with it, which is what we’ve always wanted to have, you know.W: It sounds like you’ve always worked in pubs, but not always in this one.M: No, no. I worked in quite a variety of pubs.W: What makes a good pub? I mean, you said, you know, it has got a good variety of things.M: Well, I think having the right customers to start with, selling the right beer, keeping it good, and most of all, keeping a good attitude yourself, even though you probably feel very tired. But the idea is, if you generate from your side, it’s got to affect the other side, if you’re getting the right customers in.W: Yeah. I must say that’s one thing that has always str uck me about being a pub owner. I mean, a lot of people seem to think that it’s a nice job, you know. Everybody says, “Oh, I’d love to retire and get a country pub.” But it seems to me that it’s actually very hard work.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you havejust heard.12. What does the man say about his involvement with pubs?13. What characterizes the old-fashioned pub according to the man?14. What does the man say is the most important in makinga good pub?15.

It can bring about a physical, emotional, or mental change in people. Alcohol and tobacco are drugs. Caffeine, a substance found in coffee and some soft drinks, is also a drug.Drug abuse is the use of a drug, legal or illegal, that hurts a person or someone close to him. A drug user is the person who takes the drug. There are many kinds of drug users. Experimental users may try drugs once or twice. They want to see what the effects will be. Recreational users take drugs to get high. They use drugs with friends or at parties to get into the mood of things. Regular users take drugs all the time. But they are often able to keep up with the normal routine of work. Dependent users can’t relate to anything but drugs. Their whole life centers around drugs. They feel extreme mental or physical pain without drugs. It’s not always easy to tell that someone is u sing drugs. In the early stages, drug use is often hard to see. Sometimes, people like drugs or need drugs so much that they can’t do without them. They are dependent upon drugs. Only a few kinds of drugs can cause physical dependence. But almost any drug, when it’s misused, can make a person think he needs it all the time. By thistime, it’s too late and the person is hooked. Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.16. What does the speaker say about drug abuse?17. What does the speaker say about recreational drug users?18. What does the speaker say about drug dependence?Passage TwoAccording to Charles Harper, Chairman of ConAgra, the Healthy Choice line of frozen dinners began with his own heart attack. It has been brought on by years of eating anything he could get his hands on. As he lay in the hospital recovering, Harper imagined the line of healthy frozen foods that tasted good. The Healthy Choice product line was carefully tested with consumers before being introduced to the general public. ConAgra’s research and development staff spent a year working under the instruction “Whatever the cost, don’t sacrifice taste.” The first test market results surprised even the ConAgra team. The low-sodium, low-fat frozen dinners sold much better than expected. According to the firm’s vice-president of marketing and sales,“We benefited from low expectations. The products were much better than people thought they would be.” This finding supported ConAgra’s decision to position the product against other high-quality frozen dinners rather than as a diet or health food. The new product’s brand name and packaging were an important part of the development process. The name Healthy Choice was chosen for the positive implication it held for consumers. Because ConAgra felt the product would be an impulse purchase, it was important to make the item stand out in the freezer case. This was accomplished through the dark green packaging that not only differed from the competitors but also suggested freshness and richness in vitamins.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the passage you have just heard.19. What did Charles Harper think of while he was in hospital?20. What does the passage say about the Healthy Choice product line before it went to market?21. What is said to contribute to ConAgra’s business success?22. What does the speaker say about the name Healthy Choice?Passage ThreeIn the United States, 36 states currently allow capital punishment for serious crimes such as murder. Americans have always argued about the death penalty. Today, there is a serious question about this issue: Should there be a minimum age limit for executingcriminals? In other words, is it right for convicted murderers who kill when they are minors—that is, under the age of 18—to receive the death penalty? In most other countries of the world, there is no capital punishment for minors. In the United States, though, each state makes its own decision. Of the 36 states that allow the death penalty, 30 permit the execution of minors. In the state of South Carolina, a convicted murderer was given the death penalty for a crime he committed while he was a minor. In 1977, when he was 17 years old, James Terry Roach and two friends cruelly murdered three people. Roach’s lawyer fought the decision to execute him. The young murderer remained on Death Row for ten years while his lawyer appealed to the governor. The lawyer argued that it is wrong to execute a person for a crime he committed while he was a minor. In the United States, the governor of a state has the power to change asentence from the death penalty to life in prison. Nonetheless, the governor of South Carolina refused to stop the execution. Roach was finally executed in 1986.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.23. What does the speaker say about the death penalty in the United States?24. What is the focus of the debate around the death penalty?25. What does the speaker say about James Terry Roach? This is the end of listening comprehension.。

And, as Edith Hamilton has reminded us, Socrates never said, "I know, learn from me." He said, rather, "Look into your own selvers and find the （30）of truth that God has put into every heart, and that only you can kindle (点燃) to a（31）."In a dialogue, Socrates takes an ignorant slave boy, without a day of （32）, and proves to the amazed observers that the boy really "knows" geometry--because the principles of geometry are already in his mind, waiting to be called out.So many of the discussions and （33）about the content of education are useless and inconclusive because they（34）what should "go into" the student rather than with what should be taken out, and how this can best be done.The college student who once said to me, after a lecture, "I spend so much time studying that I don't have a chance to learn anything," was clearly expressing his （35 ）with the sausage-casing view of education.2015年12月大学英语六级听力真题MP3下载(含文本)(第一套)答案Section A 参考答案1.

A drug is a chemical substance. It can bring about a physical, emotional, or mental change in people. Alcohol and tobacco are drugs. Caffeine, a substance found in coffee and some soft drinks is also a drug.Drug abuse is the use of a drug, legal or illegal that hurts a person or someone close to him. A drug user is the person who takes the drug. There are many kinds ofdrug users. Experimental users may try drugs one or twice. They want to see what the effects will be. Recreational users take drugs to get high. They use drugs with friends or at parties to get into the mood of things. Regular users take drugs all the time. But they are often able to keep up with the normal routine of work. Dependent users can‟t relate to anything but drugs. Their whole life centers around drugs. They feel extreme mental or physical pain without drugs.It‟s not always easy to tell if someone is using drugs. In the early stages, drug use is often hard to see.Sometimes people like drugs or need drugs so much they can‟t do without them. They can‟t do without them. They are dependent upon drugs. Only a few kinds of drugs can cause physical dependence, but almost any drug, when it‟s misused can make a person think he needs it all the time. By this time it‟s too late and the person is …hooked‟.16. What does the speaker say about drug abuse?17. What does the speaker say about recreational drug users?18. What does the speaker say about drug dependence?Passage twoAccording to Charles Harper, Chairman of Con Agra, the Healthy Choice line of frozen dinners began w ith his own heart attack. It‟s been brought on by years of eating anything he could get his hands on. As he lay in a hospital for recovering , Harper imagined the line of healthy frozen foods, the Tasty Good. The Healthy Choice product line was carefully tested with consumers before being introduced to the general public. ConAgra‟s research and development staff spent a year working under the instruction-“Whatever the cost, don‟t sacrifice taste”. The first test market results surprised even the ConAgra team: the low sodium, low fat frozen dinners sold much better than expected. According to the firms‟ vice president of marketing and sales, “We benefited from low expectations. The products were much better than people thought they would be” This finding supported ConAgra‟s decision to position a product against other high quality frozen dinners, rather than as a diet or health food. The new products brand‟s name and packaging were an important part to thedevelopment process. The name Healthy Choice was chosen for the positive implication it held for consumers. Because ConAgra felt product would be an impulse purchase, it was important to make the item stand out in a freezer case. This was accomplished through the dark green packaging that not only differed from the competitors, but also suggested freshness and richness in vitamins.19. What did Charles Harper think of while he was in hospital?20. What does the passage say about the Health Choice product line before it went to market?21. What is said to contr ibute to ConAgra‟s business success?22. What does the speaker say about the name Healthy Choice?Passage ThreeIn the United States, 36 states currently allowed capital punishment for serious crimes, such as murder Americans have always argued about the death penalty. Today, there is a serious question about this issue-Should there be a minimum age limit for executing criminals? In other words, is it right for convict murderers who kill when they are minors, that is under the age of 18, to receive the death penalty. In most other countries of the world, there is no capital punishment for minors. In the United States, though, each state makes its own decision. Of the 36 states that allowed the death penalty, 30 permit the execution of minors. In the state of South Carolina, a convicted murderer ws given the death penalty for a crime he committed while he was a minor. In 1977, when he was 17 years old, James Terry Roach and two friends cruelly murdered three people. Roach‟s lawyer fought the decision to execut e him. The young murder remained on death roll for ten years while his lawyer appealed to the governor. The lawyer argued that it‟s wrong to execute a person for a crime he committed while he was a minor. In the United States the governor of a state has the power to change a sentence from the death penalty to life in prison. Nonetheless the governor of South Carolina refused to stop the execution Roach was finally executed in 1986.23. What does the speaker say about the death penalty in the United States?24. What is the focus of the debate around the death penalty?25 what does the speaker say about James Terry Roach?。

Nor is it something that could be remedied by some supernatural power. It is rather an（28）and final act for which thereis no remedyon earth or in heaven. A species once extinct is goneforever. However many generations（29)us in coming centuries, none of them will ever see this species that we extinguish. Not only are we bringing about the extinction of life（30）, we are also making the land and the air and the sea so toxic that the very conditions of life are being destroyed.（31）basic natural resources, not only are the nonrenewable resources being（32）in a frenzy ( 疯狂) of processing,consuming, and （33）, but we are also mining much of our renewable resources, such as the very soil itself on which terrestrial (地球上的) life depends.

Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.When most people think of the word "education," they think of a pupil as a sort of animate sausage casing. Into this empty casing, the teachers（26）stuff "education."But genuine education, as Socrates knew more than two thousand years ago, isnot （27 ）the stuffings of information into a person, but rather eliciting knowledge from him; it is the 28 of what is in the mind."The most important part of education," once wrote William Ernest Hocking, the （29） Harvard philosopher, "is this instruction of a man in what he has inside ofhim. And, as Edith Hamilton has reminded us, Socrates never said, "I know, learnfrom me." He said, rather, "Look into your own selvers and find the （30） of truth that God has put into every heart, and that only you can kindle (点燃) to a（ 31）." In a dialogue, Socrates takes an ignorant slave boy, without a day of （32）, and proves to the amazed observers that the boy really "knows" geometry--becausethe principles of geometry are already in his mind, waiting to be called out.So many o f the discussions and （33） about the content of education are useless and inconclusive because they（34） what should "go into" the student rather thanwith what should be taken out, and how this can best be done.The college student who once said to me, after a lecture, "I spend so muchtime studying that I don't have a chance to learn anything," was clearly expressing his （ 35 ） with the sausage-casing view of education.2015年12月大学英语六级听力真题MP3下载(含文本)(第一套)答案Section A 参考答案1.

A drug is a chemical substance. It can bring about a physical, emotional or mental change in people. Alcohol and tobacco are drugs. A substance found in coffee and some softdrinks is also a drug. (16) Drug abuse is the use of the drug legal or illegal that hurts the person orsomeone close to him. A drug user is the person who takes the drug. There are many kinds of drug users. Experimental users may try drugs once or twice. They want to see what the effects would be. (17) Recreational users take drugs to get high. They usedrugs with friends or at parties to get into the mood of things. Regular users take drugs Everybody says oh, I would love to retire and gectoau ntry pub b ”ut itall the time. But they are often able to keep up with the normal routine of work. Dependent users can believe anything but drugs. Their whole life centers around drugs. They feel extreme mental or physical pain without drugs. It ' s nowt a lys easy to tell if someone is using drugs. In the earlier stages, drug use is often hard to see. Sometimes people like drugs or need drugs so much they can do'w t ithout them. They are dependent upon drugs. (18) Only a few kinds of drugs can cause physical dependents, but almost any drug one is misused can make a person think you need it all the time. By this time, it ' s too late on the person is hawked.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q16 What does the speaker say about the drug abuse?Q17 What does the speaker say about recreational drug users?Q18 What does the speaker say about drug dependents?Passage TwoAccording to Charles Happer, Chairman of Canogrose, the Healthy Choice line of frozen dinners, began with his own heart attack. It ' s beenbrought on by years of eating anything he could get his hands on. (19) Ashe' lsying in hospital, recovering, Happer imagined a line of healthy frozen foods, the Tasty Good. (20) The Healthy Choice product line was carefully tested with consumers before being introduced to the general public. Canogrose ' s research and development staff spent a year working under the instruction—“ Whatever the cost, don ' t sacrifice taste ” . Thefirstest market results surprised even the Canogroseteam:the low sodium low fat frozen dinners sold much better than expected. According to the firm 's vice president of marketing and sale(2s1, ) we benefited from low expectations. The products were much better than people thought they would be. This finding supported Canogrose 'dsecision to position a product against other high quality frozen dinners, rather than as a diet or health food. The new product 'bsrand 'nsame and packaging were an important part of the development process. (22)The name Healthy Choice was chosen for the positive implication it held for consumers. Because Canogrose though the product would be an impulse purchase, it was important to make the item stand out in a freezer case. This was accomplished though the dark green packaging that not only differed from the competitors, but also suggested freshness and richnessin vitamins.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the passage you have just heard. Q19 What did Charles Happer think of while he was in hospital?Q20 What does the passagesay about the Health Choice product linebefore it went to market?Q21 What is said tocontribute to Canogrose ' s buniess success?Q22 What does the speaker say about the name Healthy Choice? Passage Three (23) In the United States, 36 states currently allowed capital punishment for serious crimes, such as murder. Americans have always argued about the death penalty. Today, there is a serious question about this iss—ue(24) Should there be a minimumage limit for executing criminals? In other words, is it right to convict murderers who kill when they are minors, that is under the age of 18, to receive the death penalty. In most other countries of the world, there is no capital punishment for minors. In the United States, though, each state makes its own decision. Of the 36 states that allowed the death penalty, 30 permit the execution of minors. In the state of South Carolina, a convicted murderer was given the death penalty for a crime he committed while he was a minor. In 1977, when he was 17 years old, James Terry Roach and two friends cruelly murdered three people. Roach'lsawyer fought the decision to execute him. The young murder remained on death roll for ten years while his lawyer appeals to the governor. The lawyer argued that it wrong to ex'ec s ute a person for a crime he committed while he was a minor. In the United Sates, the governor of a state has the power to change a sentencefrom the death penalty to life in prison. (25) Nonetheless, the governor of South Carolina refused to stop the execution. Roach was finally executed in 1986. Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard. Q23 What does the speaker say about the death penalty in the United States? Q24 What is the focus of the debate around the death penalty?Q25 What does the speaker say about James Terry Roach?。

2015年12月英语六级听力原文及答案：第一套短文1&2（沪江网校版）评论：1 划词：关闭划词收藏Passage 1Changing technology and markets have stimulated the team approach to management. Inflation, resource scarcity, reduced personnel levels and budget cuts have all underscored the need for better coordination in organizations. Team management provides for this coordination. Team management calls for new skills if personnel potential is to be fully realized. Although a team maybe composed of knowledgeable people, they must learn new ways of relating and working together to solve cross-functional problems.When teams consist of experienced employees from hierarchical organizations, who had been conditioned to traditional organizational culture, cooperation may not occur naturally. It may need to be created.Furthermore, the issue is not just how the team can function more effectively, but how it integrates with the overall organization or society it supposedly serves.A group of individuals is not automatically a team. Therefore, teambuilding may b e necessary in order to improve the group’s performance.Casey, an expert in this filed, suggests that the cooperation process within teams, must be organized, promoted and managed. He believes that team cooperation results when members go beyond their individual capabilities, beyond what each is used to being and doing. Together, the team may then produce something new, unique, and superior to that of any one member. For this to happen, he suggests that the multicultural managers exhibit understandings of their own and others’ cultural influences and limitations. They should also cultivate such skills as toleration of ambiguity, persistence and patience, as well as assertiveness.If a team manager exemplifies such qualities, then the team as a whole would be better able to realize their potential and achieve their objectives.问题+答案：16. What should team members do to fully realize their potential?B) Follow closely the fast development of technology.17. What needs to be considered for effective team management?B) What type of personnel the team should be composed of.18. What conclusion can we draw from what Casey says?D) A team manager should develop a certain set skills.Passage 2In early 1994, when Marc Andreessen was just 23 years old, he arrived in Silicon Valley with an idea that would change the world. As a student at the University of Illinois, he and his friends had developed a program called Mosaic, which allowed people to share information on the worldwide web. Before Mosaic, the web had been used mainly by scientists and other technical people, who were happy just to send and receive text. But web Mosaic, Andreessen and his friends, had developed a program, which could send images over the web as well.Mosaic was an overnight success. It wa s put on the university’s network at the beginning of 1993, and by the end of the year, it had over a million users. Soon after, Andreessen went to seek his fortune in Silicon Valley. Once he got there, he started to have meetings with the man called Jim C lark, who was one of the valley’s most famous entrepreneurs.In 1994, nobody was making any real money from the Internet, which was still very slow and hard to use. But Andreessen had seen an opportunity that would make him and Clark rich within 2 years. He suggested, they should create a new computerprogram that would do the same job as Mosaic, but would be much easier to use. Clark listened carefully to Andreessen, whose ideas and enthusiasm impressed him greatly. Eventually, Clark agreed to invest 3 million dollars of his own money in the project and raised an extra 15 million from venture capitalists who are always keen to listen to Clark’s new ideas.问题+答案：19. What do we learn about Mosaic?A) It is a program allowing people to share information on the Web.20. What did Andreessen do upon arriving Silicon Valley?B) He met with an entrepreneur named Jim Clark.21. Why would venture capitalists willing to join in Clark’s investment?B) They had confidence in his new ideas.。
