英語六級答案解析 1
六級聽力第一套——
Conversation one.
ive just bought a new blender.
Whats that a blender?
A machine that blends food.
the electric kitchen appliance, exactly.
This one is state of the art. Ive been meaning to buy one for a while. I did thorough research on which specific model to get. I read through maybe hundreds of online user reviews. Anyway.
its amazing really what could be so special about it. I its just a blender.
Basically its just a very good one. It feels heavy and sturdy and well made. It also has lots of power and can easily cut and crush practically anything. This way. The soups and juices I make come out really fine and smooth with no lumpy bits.
I see I have never thought of getting one myself. It sounds like the kind of thing that for me personally I would rarely use.
Ive never had one before now that I do, I use it all the time. I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning but 3 or 4 times a week and it feels fantastic. Its a really healthy habit.
I can imagine that must feel quite satisfying. I can picture you getting all creative in the kitchen and trying out a multitude of different ingredients. Its obviously going to be healthier than buying packaged juice from a supermarket.
Its so much healthier. Its not even close did you know that store bought juice is like 10% sugar, right?
Then you bought it for the health benefits, mostly yes.
Basically, it allows me to have a more varied diet with a far wider assortment of nutrients, because its not only fruit in my morning juices. You see. I can also throw in vegetables, nuts, yogurt, cereals, anything that tickled my fancy.
Questions. 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
Question 1, what does the man say he did before buying the blender?
Question 2, what does the woman say she has never thought of doing?
Question 3, what does the man say is a really healthy habit?
Question 4, what do we learn about store bought juice from the conversation two?
Today we have a very interesting guest, mister thomas benjamin grimm, the mayor of burkington is here to talk about his job and responsibilities overseeing this charming village. Mr. Grimm, thank you for being here.
Thank you for having me.
Id like to start by stating the obvious burketon has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country and this has happened under your watch. Just how did you achieve this?
The achievements belongs to all the residents of burton. It was a shared effort where everybody pitched in for the communal good.
But how did this change happen? In about 10 years, burkton has gone from a relatively unheard of sleepy village to a must see destination.
Yes, the change has truly been remarkable. Burkton was always fortunate to be endowed with such a beautiful natural allure. The anbury hills above the village remain untouched by human development. The sonora valley just below it is equally stunning. The transformation commenced in a town hall meeting in spring 2008 over 10 years ago. Now when an overwhelming majority of neighbors voted in favor of motion, 836, this legislative proposal essentially set out to harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses in berkton. The idea was that if all the properties looked a certain way with shared design features, then the village as a whole would look more beautiful. It worked, it certainly did.
Im looking now at a before and after photo and the change is truly remarkable. Its hard to believe its the same place. How do the neighbours feel now? Great pride.
I would say.
But what about the multitudes of visitors now crowding the streets? Is everyone happy about that?
The tourists we receive are a blessing as they have completely revitalized our local economy. Every visitor is warmly welcome.
Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
Question 5, what is the question the woman asked mister grimm after the introduction?
Question 6, what do we learn about burkton of 10 years ago?
Question 7, what resulted from the passing of the legislative proposal motion 836.
Question 8, why does the man say the tourists are a blessing to bergen? Passage one,
researchers in the us have created a remote controlled robot that is so small. It can walk on the top of aus penny in research published in the journal science, robotics. A team at northwestern university said the crab like robot is 0.5 millimeters wide. Researchers described it as the smallest ever remote controlled walking robot. The tiny robot can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn and even jump without the use of complex hardware or special power. The engineers said this is because the robot is powered by the elastic property of its body. To construct the robot, the researchers used a shape memory alloy material that transforms to its remembered shape when heated using a laser, the team is able to heat the robot at specific parts of its body, causing it to change shape as the robot deforms and goes back to its original shape. It creates movement from one place to another, because these structures are so tiny, the rate of cooling is very fast. Project lee, professor john a rogers said, in fact, reducing the sizes of these robots allows them to run faster. While the research is still in the exploratory phase, the team believes that technology could lead to micro sized robots that can perform practical tasks. In tightly confined spaces, you might imagine micro robots as agents to repair or assemble small structures or machines in industry or a surgical assistance to clear clogged arteries to stop internal bleeding or to eliminate cancerous tumors all in minimally invasive procedures. Rogers said.
Questions 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Question 9, what does the passage say about a team of researchers at northwestern university?
Question 10, what did the researchers say about the robot they created?
Question 11, what do the researchers expect their robots to do in the future?
Passage two, I dont want to boast or anything, but I have always considered myself something of an elite sleeper given the opportunity, I will sleep for marathon stretches and condose through the most extreme situations on one very rough ferry crossing on the route to the isles of silly. For example, my traveling companion spent the entire 3 hour ride throwing up in the bathroom while I dozed happily on a plastic chair. Unfortunately, it has come to my attention that I am not an elite sleeper. After all. It seems I am just lazy because elite sleepers are defined as the approximately 3% of the population who are biologically programmed to need less sleep than the rest of us. According to a study that came out in march, elite sleepers have rare genetic changes, which means they can sleep fewer hours than mere mortals without any risk of cognitive decline, it may not be possible to change your own genes, but can you train yourself to need less sleep? Is there a non biological way to reach elite sleeper status? I have spent the past year trying to answer that question, not for fun, I should add because having a baby has severely disrupted my sleep for which I still have a great passion for a while. I assumed id be forced to become one of those people who jump out of bed at the crack of dawn. After a year of tough scientific study, however, I have discovered being forced to get up early in the morning is very different from being an early bird.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Question 12. What does the speaker say she did on her ride to the isles of silly
Question 13. What do we learn from the passage about elite sleepers?
Question 14, what has the speaker been trying to find out over the past year?
Question 15, what has the speaker discovered after a year of tough scientific study?
Recording one if you read an article about a controversial issue, do you think youd realize if it had changed your beliefs? No one knows your own mind like you do. It seems obvious that you would know if your beliefs had shifted. And yet a new paper in the quarterly journal of experimental psychology suggests that we actually have very poor awareness of our own belief change, meaning that we will tend to underestimate how much weve been swayed. By a convincing article, the researchers recruited over 200 undergraduates across two studies and focused on their beliefs about whether physical punishment of kids is an effective form of discipline. The students reported their initial beliefs about whether physical punishment is an effective way to discipline a child on a scale from one completely disbelief to nine completely believe. Several weeks later, they were given one of two research based text to read. Each was several pages long and either presented the arguments and data in favor of physical punishments or against it. After this, the students answered some questions to test their comprehension and memory of the text. Then the students again scored their belief in whether physical punishment is effective or not. Finally, the researchers asked them to recall what their belief had been at the start of the study. The students belief about physical punishment changed when they read a text that argued against their own initial position. Crucially, the memory of their initial belief was shifted in the direction of their new belief. In fact, their memory was closer to their current belief than their original belief. The more their belief had changed, the larger this memory bias tended to be suggesting the students were relying on their current belief to deduce their initial belief, the memory bias was unrelated to the measures of how well theyd understood or recalled the text, suggesting these factors didnt play a role in memory of initial belief or awareness of belief change. The researchers concede that this research was about changes to mostly moderate beliefs. Its likely the findings would be different in the context of changes to extreme or deeply held beliefs. However, our beliefs on most topics are in the moderate range. And as we go about our daily lives reading informative material, these intriguing findings suggest we are mostly ignorance of what we just read has updated and altered our own position. Questions.
16 to 18 are based on the recording you have just heard.
Question 16. What does a new paper in the quarterly journal of experimental psychology suggest?
Question 17, what happened when the students read a text that argued against their own initial position?
Question 18, what did the researchers concede concerning their findings according to as the american population grows?
So does the number of american moms recording to as the american population grows? So does the number of american moms, but more than a century after mothers day became an official holiday. Even as that number increases, the share of the american population who are mothers is at the lowest point in 1/4 century. Its frequently noted that fertility rates are falling sharply in richer countries, but the less observed consequence of this trend is that a decline in births can also mean a decline in motherhood in general. According to my analysis of data from the census bureau, the decline of american motherhood is real occurring very quickly and may continue for some time yet. Not only are moms making up less of the population, but their characteristics are changing too. And in a way that might be linked to their proportional decline, moms today tend to be older than in the past. Just looking at recent years, the change in age specific birth rates has been drastic. In just the past few years, the peak childbearing age range for american women has advanced from that of 25 to 29 that To 34. Meanwhile childbearing among women under 20 has fallen by half or more. While childbearing among women 35 and older is rising. One positive consequence of this age shift is that a larger proportion of new mothers are economically prepared to raise children less positively. However, many women find that as they age, they cant have as many kids as they would like. Plus having children later in life can increase the risk of health complications. These finer points aside, one major consequence of the older moms trend is that fewer years of a womans life are spent as a mother. This means that at any given time, a larger share of women and thus of the whole population will report not having children in government surveys. In other words, later motherhood means less motherhood, even as motherhood rates decline, mothers day will endure. In fact, despite the demographic shift, retail spending on the holiday appears to be rising. It is hard to say if mothers day spending is rising more than one would expect, given that the american population keeps growing. But one factor might be that the proportion of women who are the mothers of adult children is rising. Those adult children may spend more generously when it comes to celebrating the moms. They no longer live with.
Questions, 19 to 21 are based on the recording. You have just heard.
Question 19. What does the speaker conclude from her analysis of the census bureaus data?
Question 20. What does the speaker say is a positive consequence of the age shift in childbearing?
Question 21. What might be one explanation for the rise in retail spending on mothers day?
Recording three. Since nasa published a paper in 1989, claiming that house plants can soak up pollution and toxic chemicals, businesses and homeowners have increasingly invested in greenery to help clean their air. But a new analysis suggests it could actually take more than 1,000 plants per square meter to gain a benefit any greater than simply opening a couple of windows. The problem lies in the fact that NASA conducted their tests in sealed containers that do not simulate the conditions in most peoples homes or offices. The space agency was primarily concerned about keeping the air fresh for astronauts cut off in biosphere or space stations and helping to combat sick building syndrome, which had become a problem due to the super insulated and energy efficient officers of the late 1970s. By the early 1980s, workers regularly complained of skin rashes, sleepiness, headaches and allergies as they breathed in toxic chemicals from paints and plastics. Nasa found that certain plants could remove chemicals from the air. And even today, garden centers recommend the plants for air cleaning properties. However, a new evaluation of dozens of studies spanning 30 years found that house plants in a normal environment have little impact. In fact, natural ventilation is far better at cleaning the air. The researchers also calculated the clean air delivery rates for plants in the studies they analyzed and found that the rate at which plants dispersed the compounds was well below the usual rates of air exchange in a normal building caused by the movements of people coming and going opening doors and windows. Many of the studies did show a reduction in the concentration of volatile organic compounds over time, which is likely why people have seized on them to praise the air purifying virtues of plants. But the researchers calculation showed it would take 10 to 1,000 plants per square meter of floor space to compete with the air cleaning capacity of a buildings, air handling system, or even just a couple of open windows in a house. In contrast, NASA sealed experiment recommended one pot plants per 100 square feet. This is certainly an example of how scientific findings can be misleading or misinterpreted over time. But its also a great example of how scientific research should continually re examine and question findings to get closer to the ground truth of understanding whats actually happening.
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the recording. You have just heard question 22. What does nas as 1989 paper? Claim house plants can do.
Question 23. What is said to be the problem with nas as study reported in its 1989 paper?
Question 24. What is the finding of a new evaluation of dozens of studies spanning 30 years?
Question 25. What does NASA sealed experiment recommendation exemplify in scientists pursuit of truth?

After you hear a question,you must choose the best answer from the four choices,mark abc and d then mark the corresponding letter on answer sheet one with a single line through the sensor。Conversation one。
Thank you for meeting with me,steven at such short notice。
not a problem,margaret。Now please give me some good news。Have you agreed to my last proposal?
I have indeed and I wish to sign the agreement pending one small change to be made to the contract。
Margaret,we have been through this for almost a year now back and forth making alterations。Are you sure you want to make a sponsorship deal for your clients or not?I ask this because frankly,some people at my end are running out of patience。I understand your concerns。
but as im sure you understand,we hold our clients best interests to be of the utmost concern。We therefore comb through the fine details of all contracts。Rest assured we all appreciate your firms patience。
Fine。So what changes do you wish to make?
Essentially,we would like the new deal to exclude the middle east。
Thats all the middle east。
Why my client has a couple of other perspective marketing deals from companies in the middle east。Those offers should they materialize would exclusively employ my clients image in the middle east only。Therefore,in order to avoid any conflict,we would need to ensure that both marketing campaigns do not overlap geographically。
What business sector in the middle east are we talking about here?
Real estate.
that should be okay then so long as the product is very different from our food and beverage market,there should be no conflict of interest。Nevertheless,I will have to run this through my people。I dont foresee any problem though,the middle east is a negligible market for us,but I still need to check this with a couple of departments。
Questions 1to4 are based on the conversation you have just heard。

Next,we have a special science related news story。Paula hancock is at the denver observatory。Paula,what is the big story over there?Hi.john.All the astronomers on site here are very excited。In fact,space enthusiasts all across north america and the rest of the northern hemisphere will be congregated on mountain tops tonight to watch the night sky。
Whats the big event?Is there an eclipse happening soon?
Tonight the earth will come into close proximity with the oppenheimer comet。It is the closest our planet has been to such a phenomenon in over 100years。For this reason。It is expected that thousands of people will gaze up at the sky tonight in order to see this formidable object。
How far away is this common?Will people be able to see it with the naked eye?
The oppenheimer comet will still be millions of miles away on the edge of our galaxy。But nevertheless,this is a relatively close distance,close enough for people to observe in good detail through a telescope。People will only see a blur without one。However that does not mean one needs professional equipment。Even the most ordinary of telescopes should be conducive for people to observe and wonder at this flying object。
Many of our viewers will be wondering how they too can take part in this once in a lifetime event。Where will this comment be in the sky?How can people find it?
The comet will be almost exactly due north at60°above the equator。However,finding the comet is indeed very tricky and scientists here have told me there are plenty of phone apps that will facilitate this。
How fantastic?Thank you,paula for the information。

Question 8,what do scientists at the denver observatory advise amateurs do to facilitate their observation。
single line through the center。Passage one,
dietary guidelines form the basis for nutrition advice and regulations around the world。While there is strong scientific consensus around most existing guidelines。One question has recently stirred debate。Should consumers be warned to avoid ultra processed foods?Two papers published today in the american journal of clinical nutrition outline the case for and against using the concept of ultra processed foods to help inform dietary guidelines beyond conventional food classification systems。The authors,carlos monteiro of the university of sao paulo and arna ostrich of novo nordisk foundation。Well discuss the issue in a live virtual debate。August14th,during nutrition,2024live online。The debate centers around a system developed by monteiro and colleagues that classifies foods by their degree of industrial processing,ranging from unprocessed to ultra processed。The system defines ultra processed foods as those made using sequences of processes that extract substances from foods and alter them with chemicals。In order to formulate the final product,ultra processed foods are characteristically designed to be cheap,tasty and convenient。Examples include soft drinks and candy,package snacks and pastries,ready to heat products and reconstituted meat products。Studies have linked consumption of ultra processed foods which are often high in salt,sugar and fat weight gain and an increased risk of chronic diseases,even after adjusting for the amount of salt,sugar and fat in the diet,while the mechanisms behind these associations are not fully understood,montero argues that the existing evidence is sufficient to justify discouraging consumption of ultra processed foods in dietary recommendations and government policies。

Human creativity benefits from constraints。According to psychologists,when you have less to work with,you actually begin to see the world differently。It constraints。You dedicate your mental energy acting more resourcefully when challenged you figure out new ways to be better the most successful creative people know that constraints give their minds the impetus to leap higher。People who invent new products are not limited by what they dont have or cant do。They leverage their limitations to push themselves even further。Many products and services are created because the founders saw a limitation in what they use。They created innovation based on what was not working for them at the moment。Innovation is a creative persons response to limitation in a 2015study which examined how thinking about scarcity or abundance influences how creatively people use their resources。Ravi matter at the university of illinois and meng zhu at johns hopkins university found that people simply have no incentive to use whats available to them in novel ways。When people face scarcity,they give themselves the freedom to use resources in less conventional ways because they have to obstacles can broaden your perception and open up your thinking processes,consistent constraints,help you improve at connecting unrelated ideas and concepts。Marissa meyer,former vice president for search products and user experience at google。Once wrote in a publication on bloomberg constraints,shape and focus problems and provide clear challenges to overcome。Creativity thrives best and constraint。

Recording one different people use different strategies for managing conflicts。These strategies are learned in childhood。Usually we are not aware of how we act in conflict situations。We just do whatever seems to come naturally,but we do have a personal strategy and because it is learned,we can always change it by learning new and more effective ways of managing conflicts。When you get involved in a conflict,there are two major concerns you have to take into account,achieving your personal goals and keeping a good relationship with the other person,how important your personal goals are, how important the relationship is to you affect how you act in a conflict。Given these two concerns,five styles of managing conflicts can be identified when the turtle turtles withdraw into their shells to avoid conflicts。They give up their personal goals and relationships。They believe it is easier to withdraw from a conflict than to face it。Two,the shark sharks try to overpower opponents by forcing them to accept their solution to the conflict they seek to achieve their goals at all costs。Sharks assume that conflicts are settled by one person winning and one person losing。Winning gives sharks a sense of pride and achievement losing gives them a sense of weakness,inadequacy and failure。Three,the teddy bear。Teddy bears want to be accepted and liked by other people。They think that conflict should be avoided in favor of harmony and believe that conflicts cannot be discussed without damaging relationships。They give up their goals to preserve the relationship for the fox foxes are moderately concerned with their own goals and about their relationships,with other people。They give up part of their goals and persuade the other person in a conflict to give up part of his goals。They seek a solution to conflicts where both sides gain something5,the owl owls view conflicts as problems to be solved。They see conflicts as improving relationships by reducing tension between two people。They try to begin a discussion that identifies the conflict as a problem by seeking solutions that satisfy both themselves and the other person。Owls maintain the relationship。Owls are not satisfied until a solution is found that achieves their own goals and the other persons goals。And they are not satisfied until the tensions and negative feelings have been fully resolved。

Recording two,the genetic code of all1.5million known species of animals and plants living on earth will be mapped to help save species from extinction and boost human health。Scientists hope that cracking the genetic code of plants and animals could help uncover new treatments for infectious diseases。Slow aging improve crops in agriculture create new bio materials in britain,organizations including the natural history museum,the royal botanic gardens,a queue and the welcome sanger institute have joined forces to sequence britains 66,000 species of animals and plants dubbed the darwin tree of life project。It is expected to take 10 years and cost£100 million once completed。All the information will be publicly available to researchers。Many scientists believe that earth has now entered the 6th mass extinction with humans creating a toxic mix of habitat loss,pollution and climate change,which has already led to the loss of at least 77 species of mammals and 140 types of birds。Since1500,it is the biggest loss of species since the dinosaurs were wiped out 66 million years ago。Scientists say that sequencing every species will revolutionize the understanding of biology and evolution,bolster efforts to conserve as well as protect and restore biodiversity。Doctor tim littlewood,head of life sciences department at the natural history museum said whether you are interested in food or disease,the history of how every organism on the planet has adapted to its environment is recorded in its genetic makeup,how you then harness that is dependent on your ability to understand it。We will be using modern methods to get a really good window on the present and the past。And course,a window on the past gives you a prospective model on the future。Sir jim smith,director of science at welcome said,try as I I cant think of a more exciting,more relevant,more timely or more internationally inspirational project。Since1970,humanity has wiped out60%of animal populations about 23,000of80,000 species surveyed are approaching extinction。We are in the midst of the 6th great extinction events of life on our planet which not only threatens wildlife species,but also imperils the global food supply。As scientists,we all realise we desperately need to catalogue life on a fragile planet。Now I think were making history。
Questions19to21 are based on the recording you have just heard
question 19.what do scientists hope to do by cracking the genetic code of plants and animals?
Question 20,what do many scientists believe with regard to earth?
How does sir jim smith,director of science at welcome describe the darwin tree of life project。John dunn,the english poet wrote in the 17th century,no man is an island entire of itself。Every man is a piece of the continent,a part of the main。Now a british academic has claimed that human individuality is indeed just an illusion,because societies are far more interconnected at a mental,physical and cultural level than people realize。In his new book,the self delusion。Professor tom oliver,a researcher in the ecology and evolution group at the university of reading argues there is no such thing as self。 And not even our bodies are truly us. Just as Copernicus realized, the earth is not the center of the universe. Professor Oliver said society urgently needs a Copernican like revolution to understand people are not detached beings, but rather part of one connected identity, a significant milestone in the cultural evolution of human minds was the acceptance that the earth is not the center of the universe, the so called Copernican revolution, he writes, however, we have one more big myth to dispose of that we exist as independent selves at the center of a subjective universe. You may feel as if you are an independent individual acting autonomously in the world that you have unchanging inner self that persists throughout your lifetime, acting as a central anchor point with the world changing around you. This is the illusion I seek to tackle. We are intimately connected to the world around us. Professor Oliver argues there are around 37 trillion cells in the body, but most have a lifespan of just a few days or weeks. So the material us is constantly changing. In fact, there is no part of your body that has existed for more than 10 years. Since our bodies are essentially made anew every few weeks, the material in them alone is clearly insufficient to explain the persistent thread of an identity. Professor Oliver claims that individualism is actually bad for society only by realizing we are part of a bigger Entity. Can we solve pressing environmental and societal problems through selfish over consumption? We are destroying the natural world and using non renewable resources at an accelerating rate. We are at a critical crossroads as a species where we must rapidly reform our mindset and behavior to act in less selfish ways. He said so lets open our eyes to the hidden connections all around us.
Questions, 22 to 25 are based on the recording you have just heard.
Question 22. What is indeed just an illusion according to professor Tom Oliver?
Question 23. What does professor Tom Oliver think of the idea that we exist as independent selves at the center of a subjective universe?

Question 25. How can we solve pressing environmental and societal problems? According to professor Tom Oliver.

There is a growing awareness of the equal importance ofsocial practice and academic learning in todays world.Some believe that social practice is thekey to success,whileothers arguethat it is not compulsory for everyone toengage in.Personally,I find the former view morereason-able.
Firstly,social practice is essential for students.It allows themto apply what they have learned in the classroom to real-lifescenarios,enhancing their understanding and reinforcingtheir knowledge.For example,participating in internships orvolunteer work can provide students with valuable insightsinto their chosen field and help them develop practical skillsthat cannot be learned from textbooks.Secondly,in theworkplace,employers value individuals who can effectivelycollaborate,communicate,and adapt to different situations.Lastly,in daily life,social practice enables individuals to in-teract effectively with others,resolve conflicts,and make in-formed decisions.
In conclusion,social practice and academic learning are ofequal importance in todays world.By recognizing and em-bracing the value of both,we can foster a society thatvaluesknowledge,practical skills,and social responsibility.

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.
The task of the global strategist of a business is to build a platform of capabilities derived from the resources,experiences and innovations of units operating in multiple locations,to transplant those capabilities wherever 26 ,and then to systematically upgrade and renew them—ahead of the competition.
Apple is an outstanding case of a company whose unique capabilities give it a worldwide 27 advantage,particularly with respect to its ability to build platforms from a product base that integrates functional and 28 design.Apple has been able to leverage and exploit its California-based design and marketing advantages successfully throughout the world.IKEA is another such case.The do-it-yourself furniture and houseware company first developed a compelling set of capabilities to design,manufacture and 29 furniture at low cost and sell it in a novel way in Sweden.Later,IKEA successfully 30 this formula in many other countries.
By contrast,Telefonica,a Spanish telecommunications company that is now the worlds fifth largest telecom by 31 ,first developed its special advantage abroad.In 1989 and 1990,Telefonica had the opportunity to enter Chile and Argentina,countries that shared many institutional and cultural characteristics with its home country but that were 32 more rapid market reform.Throughout the 1990s,Telefonica took what it learned in Chile and Argentina about reconstructing former state-owned telecoms to other Latin American countries that were privatizing their state telecoms and deregulating their telecom markets.
These examples might lead the reader to believe that creating a global advantage is an easy task.But many other 33 of expensive failed experiments suggest that creating a lasting global advantage actually requires a great deal of 34 _and operational finesse ( 技 巧 ) .Our research suggests that global winners typically create and sustain their international presence through a systematic process of . 35 ,renewing and enhancing their core capabilities.

E)exploiting M)strategic
F)fiscal N)transcend
G)instances O)undergoing
H)rehabilitated
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.
Fear of Nature:An Emerging Threat to Conservation
A)What do we lose when natural spaces and species disappear?Increasingly,research has shown that as species and ecosystems vanish,it also chips away at our ability to preserve what remains—because we no longer understand what were losing.
B)You probably see it all the time.The neighbor who puts pesticides on his lawn rather than deal with annoying bees.The politician who votes against wildlife protection because shes never seen a wolf in the wild.The corporation that wants to bulldoze(用 推土機(jī)推平)the habitat of a rare frog.
C)At best this can be termed "the extinction of experience,"where our cultural and natural histories fade from our memories and therefore our reality.At its worst it becomes something even more concerning;“biophobia,”the fear of living things and a complete aversion to nature.
D)This isnt the fiction of living in a cold,empty dystopia(絕望的世界) .Sadly,its becoming a way of life for too many people—especially children.A recent study in Japan paints a striking portrait of this problem.A survey of more than 5,300 school children in the Tochigi Prefecture examined their perception of 14 local insect species and one spider.The results?A collective“ew!”Most of the students saw the species as things to dislike or fear,or even as sources of danger.The less experience the students had with nature,the more negative their feelings.
E)The results were published earlier this year in the journal Biological Conservation.Lead researcher Masashi Soga with the University of Tokyo says the study stemmed from observations about todays nature-deficient children.“Humans inherently avoid dangerous organisms such as bees,but children these days avoid even harmless insects such as butterflies and dragonflies(蜻蜓),”he says.“I have long wondered why so many of todays children react like this."
F)Although the childrens reactions were somewhat expected,the new study did contain an unexpected finding:Many of the surveyed children revealed that their parents also expressed fear or disgust of the same animals.In fact these parental emotions were strong enough to overwhelm any positive experiences the children might have gained from direct experiences in nature.As Soga and his coauthors wrote in their paper,“Our results suggest that there is likely a feedback loop in which an increase in people who have negative attitudes towards nature in one generation will lead to a further increase in people with similar attitudes in the next generation."
G)And thats possibly the greater threat posed by extinction of experience.Soga suggests the generational loss—condition previously dubbed environmental generational amnesia(遺忘)—could chip away at our societal ability to preserve what were losing. “I believe that increased biophobia is a major,but invisible,threat to global biodiversity,”Soga says.“As the number of children who have biophobia increases, public interest and support for biodiversity conservation will gradually decline. Although many conservation biologists still consider that preventing the loss of wildlife habitat is the most important way to conserve biodiversity,I think preventing increased biophobia is also important for conservation.”
H)Whats to be done about this?The paper makes several recommendations,the most obvious of which is that children should experience nature more often.The authors also suggest establishing policies to guide these natural experiences and increasing educational programs about the natural world.
I)Helping parents to see species around them in a new light would make a difference,too. And,of course,maintaining support for preserving the wild spaces where these "scary" creatures live is the most important thing of all.Thats a point reinforced by another recent study,which found that wild spaces located within urban areas—and the plants and animals that thrive in them-are particularly important for human health and well-being.
J)Published in the journal Frontiers in Sustainable Cities,the study examined attitudes toward Discovery Park,the heavily forested 534-acre public park in Seattle, Washington.It found that the public had the most appreciation for-and gained the most value from-the wildest parts of the park.“I have seen whales,seals,fish,eagles, shorebirds and many other sea creatures in their natural habitat,”one survey participant wrote.“Coming here with people has allowed me to connect and talk with them about conversation that simply does not happen in everyday life,"wrote another.
K)The participants reported that their most valuable experiences in the park included encountering wildlife,walking through open spaces,exploring the beach and finding beautiful views."We saw that a large majority of participantsinteractions,especially their most meaningful interactions,depended on Discovery Parks relative wildness," says lead author Elizabeth Lev,a masters student in the University of Washingtons Human Interaction with Nature Lab.This is only possible because the park is relatively wild.After all,you cant enjoy watching birds if there are no birds to follow;gaze at the sunset if its obscured by skyscrapers;or stop and smell the flowers if they dont have room to grow.
L)And yet even this long-protected space could someday become less hospitable to nature. Over the past few years a lot of people and organizations have suggested developing parts of Discovery Park or the neighboring area.Most recently a plan proposed building 34 acres of much-needed affordable housing and parking spaces adjacent to the park, bringing with them noise,traffic and pollution.
M)If anything like that happened,both the park and the people of Seattle could lose something vital.And that would continue the trend of chipping away at Seattles-and the worlds—natural spaces,leaving just tiny pocket parks and green-but-empty spaces that offer little real value to wildlife,plants or people.
N)“It is true that any interaction with nature is better than none,but I dont want people to be satisfied with any small bit of grass and trees,"Lev says."We have been in this cycle of environmental generational amnesia for a long time,where the baseline keeps shifting and we dont even realize what were losing until its gone.If we can get people to understand how much meaning and value can come from having more experiences with more wild forms of nature,then maybe we can stop this cycle and move toward conserving and restoring what we have left.”
O)Building this understanding in an ever-more fearful and disconnected world may be the biggest challenge.Peter Kahn,the senior author of Levs paper and the director of the Human Interaction with Nature lab,made several suggestions for bridging this gap in this 2011 book,Technological Nature.They echo the recommendation about getting children into nature,but also include telling stories of how things used to be,imagining what things might be like in the future,and developing a common language about nature,“a way of speaking about wild and domestic interaction patterns,and the meaningful,deep and often joyful feelings that they generate."
P)No matter what techniques we use,this growing field of research illustrates that saving nature requires encouraging people to experience it more often and more deeply.That calls for additional research-Lev and her coauthors have published a toolkit that other municipalities can follow to study the value of their own wild spaces—and clear communication of the results.“If we can continue to show people the benefits of these wild spaces,”Lev says,“maybe people will begin to see more value in keeping these areas undeveloped—for the sake of our mutual benefit.”
36.A new study found parentsaversion to certain animals would pass on to their children.
37.The disappearance of species and ecological systems erodes our ability to keep what is left.
38.A study showed that the wildest areas of Discovery Park appealed most to the public.
39.The fear of living organisms is becoming more worrisome.
40.Preventing the increase in childrens fear of living creatures is also important for conserving biodiversity.
41.Research shows that more and deeper experience people have with nature will help save it.
42.Though humans naturally tend to avoid dangerous animals,todays children try to stay away from even harmless ones.
43.Development in and around Discovery Park could cause heavy losses to the park and the local residents.
44.A large survey of school children found that their negative feelings grew as their experience with nature diminished.
45.Elizabeth Lev believes increased contact with more wildlife helps conserve biodiversity.
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.
Some people in the US have asserted that forgiving student loan debt is one way to stimulate the economy and give assistance to those in need.One government proposition is to eliminate $10,000 of debt for economically distressedstudents.Some in US Congress have gone so far as to suggest forgiving up to $50,000 in debt per student borrower,but does forgiving student debt necessarily correlate to helping the economically disadvantaged?
The answer is no.This policy is just giving money away to universities and the most affluent students in attendance.Federal Reserve data reveals that the highest-income 40 percent of households owe approximately 60 percent of outstanding student debt,while the lowest 40 percent owe just under 20 percent.This could be due to a combination of factors: students from high-income households are more likely to go to expensive colleges,less likely to receive financial aid,and more likely to have high incomes post-graduation.Plus, the majority of student debt is held by graduate degree earners,who earn approximately 25 percent more than their undergraduate counterparts.Clearly,giving free reign to banks to forgive student debt is a step in the wrong direction.
Other proposals for broader,long-term student loan plans have some fundamental problems.One idea is to cancel student debt only for undergraduate degrees and for students making less than $125,000.
This attempts to address the fact that Congresspreviously mentioned student loan forgiveness plan largely helps out the wealthy,but is an adverse incentive for universities to keep raising tuition and for students to choose to major in low-earning degree programs. Colleges have no reason to make their programs more affordable if they believe students will just take out more debt.And,students will feel more comfortable making the irresponsible decision to go tens of thousands of dollars in debt to major in impractical or idealistic subjects if they know their loans will be forgiven.
This is especially concerning given the pandemic(大流行病)has rendered a college education practically worthless.Students are paying tens of thousands of dollars per year to live at home and be lectured on the Internet.Do we really want to tell colleges that they can get away with providing below-average service for an outrageous cost?
In the case of any of these student debt plans,working-class Americans who chose not to or could not afford to go to college will be subsidizing the education of the professional class.Plumbers and retail workers will be paying for the degrees of doctors and lawyers.
The US governments effort to help those in debt is commendable but is this really the solution that will help the poor financially recover?
46.Why do some people advocate forgiving student loan debt?
A)They assert it will narrow the gap between the wealthy and the poor.
B)They believe it will benefit both the economy and the underprivileged. C)They claim it will eliminate economic distress among college students. D)They think the cost of education is the responsibility of the government.
47.What do we learn from the Federal Reserve data?
A)Approximately 60%of student debt remains unpaid.
B)Cancelling student debt benefits wealthy families most.
C)Forgiving student debt provides little benefit to universities.
D)Low-income families owe the biggest amount of student debt.
48.What does the author say students are likely to do if they know they neednt repay their loans?
A)They will choose to study subjects without considering their job prospects.
B)They will be free to pursue their goals without being burdened financially.
C)They will over-borrow and live beyond their means.
D)They will be able to enroll in expensive universities.
49.What does the author imply about colleges offering online education?
A)They cannot get away with the serious consequences.
B)They have suffered greatly from the current pandemic.
C)The tuition they charge is not justified by the quality of their service. D)The tuition they charge has surged outrageously during the pandemic.
50.What will happen if any of the proposed student debt plans is implemented?
A)Plumbers and retail workers will have a chance of becoming professionals.
B)Working-class students will have increasing access to subsidized education.
C)Blue-collar workers will have to bear the cost of educating would-be high-earners.
D)A growing number of students will be able to earn degrees in medicine and law.
Passage Two
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
If theres one rule that most parents cling to in the confusing,fast-changing world of kids and media,its “No screens before age 2.”
As of today,that rule has been thrown out the window.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP),which first issued that recommendation back in 1999,has extensively updated and revised its guidelines for children and adolescents to reflect new research and new habits.
The new guidelines,especially for very young children,shift the focus from WHAT is on the screen to WHO else is in the room.And in doing so,they raise some intriguing points about the future of learning from media.
For babies younger than 18 months,AAP still says no screens at all are the best idea—with one notable exception:Live video chat.Surveys indicate that families already popularly believe that “Face time doesnt count”,or at least that the benefit of virtual visits with grandparents or other relatives outweighs the potential cost of exposing babies to the laptop or smartphone.
The AAP doesnt cite positive evidence that infants actually get something out of this kind of“conversation",the way that they clearly do from live social interaction.But theres some observational research that infants as young as six months old are emotionally engaged by playing live peekaboo(躲貓貓)with Grandma online.
For infants and toddlers(學(xué)步兒童),ages 15 months to 2 years old,theres limited evidence from a couple of very small studies that they can learn new words from educational media,if and only if parents are watching alongside them,repeating what the video says and/or drawing attention to what is on the screen.In other words,treating a video or an app like a picture book is the best bet.
The flip side of this is that many studies have actually shown poorer language skills correlated with earlier solo viewing of “educational”videos.Theres also research that shows language delays in children who watch more TV and start watching earlier.In both cases,the problem seems to be media replacing interaction with people.For this reason,the new AAP guideline has changed from “avoid all screens under age 2”to “avoid solo media use in this age group.”
For preschoolers ages 2 to 5,theres more evidence that they have the ability to transfer knowledge from screens to the real world,including early literacy and math.For this age group,AAP recommends no more than an hour a day of screen use.And,just as with younger children,they want care-givers to take part in screen time:“Co-view with your children,help children understand what they are seeing,and help them apply what they learn to the world around them.”
51.What do we learn about the "No screens under 2"rule?
A)It has met more and more resistance from parents.
B)It has proved helpful to childrens healthy growth.
C)It confuses parents with regard to kids'education.
D)It has been discarded in line with recent research.
52.What do the new AAP guidelines advocate?
A)Young children should be accompanied by parents during screen time. B)Parents should be emotionally involved in their childrens upbringing.
C)Young children should watch videos carefully selected by parents.
D)Parents should protect their children from too much media exposure.
53.What do families think of live video chat according to surveys?
A)It should not be regarded as screen time.
B)It helps babies to develop their verbal skills.
C)It is not as harmful as playing games on laptops.
D)It is a good substitute for video viewing.
54.What do researches find about kids solo viewing educational videos?
A)It arouses their interest in language learning.
B)It works no better than reading picture books.
C)It hampers their development of language skills.
D)It helps them acquire independent learning skills.
55.What does the author say about preschoolers ages 2 to 5?
A)They can understand pretty well what they see on the screen.
B)They can learn on their own without much parental guidance.
C)They can make use of educational videos to develop digital literacy. D)They can relate what they learn on the screen to real life situations.

The Importance of Developing the Ability to Think Critically
In an era of information explosion,it is vitally important to develop the ability to think critically and make rational choices.In todays world,we have access to vast amounts of
information,data,facts and research than ever before,which may be a blessing to some,but a nightmare to others.A key factor in managing such information overload is the ability to use critical thinking skills.
For one thing,critical thinking skills are crucial to making well-informed decisions in an age of information overload and fake news.Making a decision solely on the basis of emotion or gut instinct can result in unhealthy lifestyles,dire financial circumstances or unsound investments.Critical thinking,on the other hand,facilitates the development of informed,healthy decisions based on facts rather than faulty assumptions and also assists in sorting through extra noise,For another,being able to think critically will define one as a problem solver,who can see things from multiple perspectives and come up with creative solutions that others may not have considered.
To sum up,it is important to develop critical thinking skills so that we can form informed opinions and set ourselves apart from our peers in a competitive environment

The Loess Plateau is the third largest plateau in China,with an area of about 600,000 square kilometers and an average altitude of 1,000 -2,000 meters.Most of the plateau is covered with 50-80 meters thick loess,which has the most concentrated distribution and the greatest thickness in the world. This is a miracle created by nature, and it is unique in the world.
The Loess Plateau is one of the birthplaces of the Chinese nation.As early as 5,500 years ago,people have already started farming on the Loess Plateau. With the continuous development of farming,the population of the Loess Plateau continued to increase,and it became the political and economic center of China during the Qin and Han Dynasties. Nowadays, with the implementation of strategy for large- scale development of western China, the economy of the Loess Plateau region has been developing rapidly.

(描述圖畫)This is a simple but thought-provoking drawing. As we can see in it, a meeting seems to be going on, with several staff members sitting around a table and a laptop in front of each of them. A leader-like man stands there, complaining: “We have lots of information technology. We just don’t have much useful information.”
(點(diǎn)明寓意)Simple as the picture is, the message it conveys is profound. Evidently it is meant to reveal the fact that there is too much junk information online.

(分析影響)Actually, the problem has become so widespread that it has severely affectedpeople’slife and hindered the development of society.
(提出建議)Of course, we should not give up eating for fear of being choked. Admittedly,information technology has greatly facilitated our life and work. The best policy, as I see it, is to maximize its advantages and eliminate its unhealthy influence.For one thing, it is imperative that pertinent laws and regulations be worked out and rigidly enforced topunish those spreading cheating ads online. For another, the searching engine websites should make a point of reducing junk information. Only with these measures taken can we expect the solution of the problem.
