【篇二：2016年6月英语六级真题及答案】

p class=txt>part Ⅰ writing

【答案】

版本一

it is held by some people that knowledge is power, especially scientific and

technological knowledge. science and technology are the motive power of the

social development, which constitute a primary productive force. the use of robots

is the produce of development of science and technology.

people’s views on the use of robots vary from person to person. some hold

that human life cannot continue without the use of robots. for many years, human

society has developed with the use of science and technology. so the life with the

use of robots we are living now is more efficient than that of our fore fathers. they

go on to point out that the use of robots has brought about many changes in

people‘s life. for example, through the use of robots can improve the work

efficiency and avoid dangerous events happening in our life in that we can require

robots to do some works with danger instead of human beings.

science and technology of robots are the crystallization of human wisdom. it

brought a glorious past to humanity, also will bring bright future to mankind.

版本二

the progression of technology is inevitable and undeniable, which makes the

intelligent machine—robots an important part in our life. with the popularity of

robots, what will happen to our work and life?

from point of my view, in the near future our work in industry will be operated

by robots, which will raise productivity and cut cost of manpower. our cooking,

washing and cleaning in our daily life will be completed by robot servers, which

will liberate us from trivial housework, and give us more time to do things we like.

however, there is still much real challenge if robots become the mainstream of

society. first, the less-skilled people will be out of work as a result of wide

application of robots in industry. second, we will get fatter and fatter because of

robot doing housework instead of us.

based on the above imagination, we can easily acknowledge that robot is a

double-edged sword. we should draw on the advantages and avoid disadvantages,

and make it bring maximum benefits to human beings.

part Ⅲ reading comprehension

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.

pursuing a career is an essential part of adolescent development. the

adolescent becomes an adult when he_____(27)a real job. to cognitive researchers

like piaget, adulthood meant the beginning of an_____(28).

piaget argued that once adolescents enter the world of work, their newly

acquired ability to from hypotheses allows them to create representations that are

too ideal. the_____(29)of such ideals, without the tempering of the reality of a job

or profession, rapidly leads adolescents to become_____(30)of the non-idealistic

world and to press for reform in a characteristically adolescent way. piaget said:

true adaptation to society comes_____(31)when the adolescent reformer attempts

to put his ideas to work.

of course, youthful idealism is often courageous, and no one likes to give up

dreams. perhaps, taken_____(32)out of context, piagets statement seems harsh.

what he was_____(33), however, is the way reality can modify idealistic views. some

people refer to such modification as maturity. piaget argued that attaining and

accepting a vocation is one of the best ways modify idealized views and to

careers and vocations become less available during times of_____(34)，

adolescents may be especially hard hit. such difficult economic times may leave

many adolescents _____(35)about their roles in society. for this reason, community

interventions and government job programs that offer summer and vacation work

are not only economically____(36)but also help to stimulate the adolescents sense

of worth.

section b

can societies be rich and green?

[a]if our economies are to flourish, if global poverty is to be eliminated and if

well-being of the worlds people enhanced-not just in this generation but in

succeeding generations-we must make sure we take care of the natural

environment and resources on which our economic activity depends. that

statement comes not, as you might imagine, from a stereotypical tree-hugging,

save-the-world greenie(环保主义者), but from gordon brown, a politician with a

reputation for rigour, thoroughness and above all, caution.

[b]a surprising thing for the man who runs one of the worlds most powerful

economies to say? perhaps; though in the run-up to the five-year review of the

millennium(千年的)goals, he is far from alone. the roots of his speech, given in

march at the roundtable meeting of environment and energy ministers from the

g20 group of nations, stretch back to 1972, and the united nations conference on

the human environment in stockholm.

[c]the protection and improvement of the human environment is a major issue

which affects the well-being of peoples and economic development throughtout

the world, read the final declaration from this gathering, the first of a sequence

which would lead to the rio de janerio earth summit in 1992 and the world

development summit in johannesburg three years ago.

[d]hunt through the reports prepared by un agencies and development

groups-many for conferences such as this years millennium goals review-and you

will find that the linkage between environmental protection and economic

progress is a common thread.

[e]managing ecosystems sustainably is more profitable than exploiting them,

according to the millennium ecosystem assessment. but finding hard evidence

to support the thesis is not so easy. thoughts turn first to some sort of global

statistic, some indicator which would rate the wealth of nations in both economic

and environmental terms and show a relationship between the two.

[f]if such an indicator exists, it is well hidden. and on reflection, this is not

surprising; the single word environment has so many dimensions, and there are so

many other factors affecting wealth-such as the oil deposits-that teasing out a

simple economy-environment relationship would be almost impossible.

[g]the millennium ecosystem assessment, a vast four-year global study which

reported its initial conclusions earlier this year, found reasons to believe that

managing ecosystem sustainably-working with nature rather than against it-might

be less profitable in the short term, but certainly brings long-term rewards.

[h]and the world resources institute (wri) in its world resources 2005 report,

issued at the end of august, produced several such examples from africa and asia;

it also demonstrated that environmental degradation affects the poor more than

the rich, as poorer people derive a much higher proportion of their income directly

from the natural resources around them.

[i]but there are also many examples of growing wealth by trashing the

environment, in rich and poor parts of the world alike, whether through uegulated

mineral extraction, drastic water use for agriculture, slash-and-burn farming, or

fossil-fuel-guzzling(大量消耗)transport. of course, such growth may not persist in

the long term-which is what mr. brown and the stockholm declaration were both

attempting to point out. perhaps the best example of boom growth and bust

decline is the grand bank fishery. for almost five centuries a very large supply of

cod(鳕鱼)provided abundant raw material for an industry which at its peak

employed about 40000 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 decade

later, there was no sign of the ecosystem rebuilding itself. it had, apparently, been

fished out of existence; and the once mighty newfoundland fleet now gropes

about frantically for crab on the sea floor.

[j]there is a view that modern humans are inevitably sowing the seeds of a

global grand banks-style disaster. the idea is that we are taking more out of what

you might call the planets environmental bank balance than it can sustain; we are

living beyond our ecological means. one recent study attempted to calculate the

extent of

this ecological goods and services-the implication being that at some point

the debt will be called in, and all those services-the things which the planet does

for us for free-will grind to a halt.

[k]whether this is right, and if so where and when the ecological axe will fell, is

hard to determine with any precision-which is why governments and financial

institutions are only beginning to bring such risks into their economic calculations.

it is also the reason why development agencies are not united in their view of

environmental issues; while some, like the wri, maintain the environmental

progress needs to go hand-in-hand with economic development, others argue that

the priorty is to build a thriving economy, and then use the wealth created to

tackle environmental degradation.

[l]this view assumes that rich societies will invest in environmental care. but is

this right? do things get better or worse as we get richer? here the stockholm

declaration is ambiguous. in the developing countries, it says, most of the

environmental problems are caused by underdevelopment. so it is saying that

economic development should make for a cleaner world? not necessary; in the

industrialised countries, environmental problems are generally related to

industrialisation and technological development, it continues. in other words, poor

and rich both over-exploit the natural world, but for different reasons. its simply

not true that economic growth will surely make our world cleaner.

[m]clearly, richer societies are able to provide environmental improvements

which lie well beyond the reach of poorer communities. citizens of wealthy nations

demand national parks, clean rivers, clean air and poison-free food. they also,

however, use for more natural resources-fuel, water (all those baths and golf

courses) and building materials.

[n]a case can be made that rich nations export environmental problems, the

most graphic example being climate change. as a countrys wealth grows, so do its

greenhouse gas emissions. 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 have released up-to-date data, and in any

case, emissions from some sectors such as aviation are not included in national

statistics. but the data is exact enough for a clear trend to be easily discernible. as

countries become richer, they produce more greenhouse gases; and the impact of

those gases will fall primary in poor parts of the world.

[o]wealth is not, of course, the only factor involved. the average norwegian is

passage two

questions 61-65 are based on the following passage.

some of the world’s most significant problems never hit

example comes from agriculture. food riots and hunger make news. but the trend

lying behind these matters is rarely talked about. this is the decline in the growth

in yields of some of the world’s major crops.a new study by the university of

minnesota and mcgill university in montreal looks at where, and how far, this

decline is occurring.

the authors take a vast number of data points for the four most important

crops: rice, wheat corn and soybeans(大豆). they find that on between 24% and 39%

of all harvested areas, the improvement in yields that tood place before the 1980s

slowed down in the 1990s and 2000s.

there are two worrying features of the slowdown. one is that it has been

particularly sharp in the world’s most populous(人口多的) countries, india and

china. their ability to feed themselves has been an important source of relative

stability both within the countries and on world food markets. that self-sufficiency

cannot be taken for granted if yields continue to slow down or reverse.

second, yield growth has been lower in wheat and rice than in corn and

soyabeans. this is problematic because wheat and rice are more important as

foods, accounting for around half of all calories consumed. corn and soyabeans

are more important as feed grains. the authors note that “we have preferentially

focused our crop improvement efforts on feeding animals and cars rather than on

crops that feed people and are the basis of food security in much of the world.”

the report qualifies the more optimistic findings of another new paper which

suggests that the world will not have to dig up a lot more land for farming in

order to feed 9 billion people in 2050, as the food and agriculture organisation has

argued.

instead, it says, thanks to slowing population growth, land currently ploughted

up for crops might be able to revert(回返)to forest or wilderness. this could happen.

the trouble is that the forecast assumes continued improvements in yields, which

may not actually happen.

注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

does the author try to draw attention to?

a)food riots and hunger in the world. c)the decline of the grain yield growth.

b)news headlines in the leading media. d)the food supply in populous

countries.

does the author mention india and china in particular?

a)their self-sufficiency is vital to the stability of world food markets.

b)their food yields have begun to decrease sharply in recent years.

c)their big populations are causing worldwide concerns.

d)their food self-sufficiency has been taken for granted.

does the new study by the two universities say about recent crop

improvement efforts?

a)they fail to produce the same remarkable results as before the 1980s.

b)they contribute a lot to the improvement of human food production.

c)they play a major role in guaranteeing the food security of the world.

d)they focus more on the increase of animal feed than human food grains.

does the food and agriculture organisation say about world food

production in the coming decades?

a)the growing population will greatly increase the pressure on world food

supplies.

b)the optimistic prediction about food production should be viewed with

caution.

c)the slowdown of the growth in yields of major food crops will be reversed.

d)the world will be able to feed its population without increasing farmland.

does the author view the argument of the food and agriculture

organisation?

a)it is built on the findings of a new study.

b)it is based on a doubtful assumption.

c)it is backed by strong evidence.

d)it is open to further discussion.

今年的选词填空题仍旧是大家所熟悉的小短文的形式，题材也是大家熟悉的社会生活类文

章，主要讲的是创新带来的各种影响。命题者考查的角度主要分为以下几个方面：

⑴固定搭配

the industrial revolution, hand weavers were ____aside by the mechanical

loom.

这个句子考查的就是词组的固定搭配了，这句话的含义是：在工业革命中，手织布工被纺

织机_____.在后面这句话中，hand weavers是主语，were ____aside是谓语动词，而且是表

示被动的。所以填在横线处的词，既要是一个表示被动的词，又要和aside构成词组，且符合

句子的含义。swept是sweep的过去式，sweep aside表示“把...移到一边”的含义。这句

话讲的是工业革命中，机器生产代替工场手工业，把手织布工取代，放到一边的事情，所以

swept是正确选项。

⑵上下文语境

the past years, the digital revolution has _____ many of the mid-skilled

jobs that supported 20th-century middle class , ticket agents, bank

tellers and many production-line jobs have been dispensed with, just as the

weavers were.

这一段话主要讲述了数字化革命代替了许多生产线上工人的工作。从这个语境可以看出，

前面的一句话和后面是承接的关系，因为并无转折。在后面一句话中谈到，打字员、订票员和

其他的生产线上的工人，都和手织布工一样被取代了。由于两句话之间是承接、并列

的关系，那么前面肯定也是说数字化革命取代了一些人的工作。所以，此处空格处缺的是

一个动词，和has一起构成谓语动词，且表示“取代”的含义，在所有的已知词汇中，只有

displaced符合条件。

从上面的分析我们可以看出，备考大学英语六级不仅仅是背词汇那么简单，在做题的时候

除了必要的词汇之外，我们还要有扎实的语法基本功，同时要学会融会贯通，灵活运用上下文

的各种线索来帮助解题。只要平时一步一个脚印的稳扎稳打，文都英语老师相信，你们一定可

以获得这场战争的胜利!
