1、溫故而知新，下筆如有神。 2020年英語六級真題及參考答案【完整版】 【網(wǎng)絡(luò)綜合版】 聽力： 　　Section A 　　Long Conversation One 　　M: You are a professor of Physics at the University of Oxford. You are a senior advisor at the European Organization for Nuclear Research. You also seem to tour the global tirelessly, giving talks. And in ad

2、dition, you have your own weekly TV show On Science. Where do you get the energy? 　　W: Oh, well.?【Q1】I just love what I do.?I am extremely fortunate to have this life, doing what I love doing. 　　M: Professor, what exactly is your goal? Why do you do all of these? 　　W: well, as you said, I do have

3、 different things going on. But these I think can be divided into?【Q2】two groups: the education of science, and the further understanding of science. 　　M: Don't these two things get in the way of each other? What I mean is, doesn't giving lectures take time away from the lab? 　　W: Not really, no.

4、I love teaching, and I don’t mind spending more time doing that now than in the past. Also, what I will say is, that?【Q3】teaching a subject helps me comprehend it better myself. I find that it furthers my own knowledge when I have to explain something clearly, when I have to aid others understanding

5、 it, and when I have to answer questions about it.?Teaching at a high level can be very stimulating for anyone, no matter how much expertise they may already have in the field they are instructing. 　　M: Are there any scientific breakthroughs that you see on the near horizon? A significant discovery

6、 or invention we can expect soon. 　　W:?【Q4】The world is always conducting science. And there're constantly new things being discovered. In fact, right now, we have too much data sitting in computers.?For example, we have thousands of photos of planet Mars taken by telescopes that nobody has ever se

7、en.?We have them, yet nobody has had time to look at them with their own eyes, let alone analyze them. 　　Q1: Why does the woman say she can be so energetic? 　　Q2: What has the woman been engaged in? 　　Q3: What does the woman say about the benefit teaching brings to her? 　　Q4: How does the woman

8、say new scientific breakthroughs can be made possible? 　　Section A 　　Conversation 2 　　M: Do you think dreams?【Q5】have special meanings? 　　W: No. I don't think they do. 　　M: I don't either, but some people do. I would say people who believe that dreams have special meanings are superstitious, es

9、pecially nowadays. In the past, during the times of ancient Egypt, Greece or China, people used to believe that dreams could foresee the future. But today, with all the scientific knowledge that we have, I think it's much harder to believe in these sorts of things. 　　W: My grandmother is superstiti

10、ous, and she thinks dreams can predict the future. Once,?【Q6】she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashed.?Can you guess what she did? She didn't take that flight. She didn't even bother to go to the airport the following day. Instead, she took the same flight but a week

11、 later. And everything was fine of course. No plane ever crashed. 　　M: How funny! Did you know that flying is actually safer than any other mode of transport? It's been statistically proven. People can be so irrational sometimes. 　　W: Yes, absolutely. But, even if we think they are ridiculous,?【Q7

12、】emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking. 　　M: Exactly. People do all sorts of crazy things because of their irrational feelings. But in fact, some psychologists believe that our dreams are the result of our emotions and memories from that day. I think it was Sigmund Freud who said th

13、at children's dreams were usually simple representations of their wishes, things they wished would happen.?【Q8】But in adults', dreams are much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments. 　　W: Isn't it interesting how psychologists try to understand using the scientific meth

14、od something as bazaar as dreams? Psychology is like the rational study of irrational feelings. 　　Q5: What do both speakers think of dreams? 　　Q6: Why didn't the woman's grandmother take her scheduled flight? 　　Q7: What does the woman say about people's emotions? 　　Q8: What did psychologist Sigm

15、und Freud say about adults' dreams? 　　Section B 　　Passage 1 　　While some scientists explore the surface of the Antarctic, others are learning more about a giant body of water -- four kilometers beneath the ice pack. Scientists first discovered Lake Vostok in the 1970s by using radio waves that pe

16、netrate the ice. Since then, they have used sound waves and even satellites to map this massive body of water. How does the water in Lake Vostok remained liquid beneath an ice sheet? “The thick glacier above acts like insulating blanket and keeps the water from freezing,” said ?Martin Siegert, a gla

17、ciologist from the university of Wales. In addition, geothermal heat from the deep within the earth may warm the hidden lake. The scientists suspect that microorganisms may be living in Lake Vostok, closed off from the outside world for more than two million years. Anything found that will be totall

18、y alien to what’s on the surface of the earth, said Siegert. Scientists are trying to find a way to drill into the ice and draw water samples without causing contamination. Again, robots might be the solution. If all goes as planned, a drill-shift robot will melt through the surface ice. When it rea

19、ches the lake, it will release another robot that can swim in the lake, take pictures and look for signs of life. The scientists hope that discoveries will shed light on life in outer space, which might exist in similar dark and airless conditions. Recently closed-up pictures of Jupiter’s moon, Euro

20、pa, shows signs of water beneath the icy surface. Once tested the Antarctic, robots could be set to Europa to search for life there, too. 　　Q9: What did the scientists first use to discover Lake Vostok in the 1970s? 　　Q10: What did scientists think about Lake Vostok? 　　Q11: What do the scientists

21、 hope their discoveries will do? 　　Section B 　　Passage 2 　　The idea to study the American Indian tribe – Tarahumaras, came to James Copeland in 1984 when?【Q12】he discovered that very little research had been done on their language.?He contacted the tribe member through a social worker who worked

22、with the tribes in Mexico. At first, the tribe member named Gonzalez was very reluctant to cooperate. He told Copeland that no amount of money could buy his language. But after Copeland explained to him what he intended to do with his research and how it would benefit the Tarahumaras, Gonzalez agree

23、d to help.?【Q13】He took Copeland to his village and served as an intermediary. Copeland says, thanks to him, the Tarahumaras understood what their mission was and started trusting us. 【Q14】Entering the world of Tarahumaras has been a laborious project for Copeland.?To reach their homeland, he must s

24、trive two and half days from Huston Taxes. He loads up his vehicle with goods that the tribe’s men can’t? easily get and gives the goods to them as a gesture of friendship. The Tarahumaras, who don’t believe any humiliating wealth, take the food and share among themselves. For Copeland, the experien

25、ce has not only been academically satisfying but also has enriched his life in several ways.?【Q15】“I see people rejecting technology and living a very hard, traditional life, which offers me another notion about the meaning of progress in the western tradition,” he says, “I experienced the simplicit

26、y of living in nature that I would otherwise only be able to read about. I see a lot of beauty and their sense of sharing and concern for each other.” 　　Q12: Why did James Copeland want to study the American Indian tribe -- Tarahumaras? 　　Q13: How did Gonzalez help James Copeland? 　　Q14: What doe

27、s the speaker say about James Copeland’s trip to the Tarahumaras village? Q15: What impresses James Copeland about the Tarahumaras tribe? 　　Section C 　　Recording 1 　　What is a radical? It seems today that people are terrified of the term, particularly of having the label attach to them. 【Q16】A

28、ccusing individuals or groups of being radical often serves to silence them into submission, thereby, maintaining the existing state of affairs, and, more important, preserving the power of a select minority, who are mostly wealthy white males in western society. Feminism is a perfect example of th

29、is phenomenon. The women's movement has been plagued by stereotypes, misrepresentations by the media, and accusations of man-hating and radicalism. When the basic foundation of feminism is simply that women deserve equal rights in all facets of life. When faced with the threat of being labelled radi

30、cal, women back down from their worthy calls and consequently, participate in their own oppression. 　　It has gotten to the point that many women are afraid to call themselves feminists because of a stigma attached to the word. If people refused to be controlled, and intimidated by stigmas, the stig

31、mas lose all their power, without fear on which they feed, such stigmas can only die. 　　To me,?【Q17】a radical is simply someone who rebels against the norm when advocates a change in the existing state of affairs.?On close inspection, it becomes clear that the norm is constantly involving, and ther

32、efore, is not a constant entity. So why then, is deviation from the present situation such a threat, when the state of affairs itself is unstable and subject to relentless transformation? It all goes back to maintaining the power of those who have it and preventing the right of those who don't. In

33、 fact, when we look at the word "radical" in a historical context, nearly every figure we now hold up as a hero was considered a radical in his or her time. Radicals are people who affect change. They are the people about whom history is written. Abolitionists were radicals, civil rights activists w

34、ere radicals,?【Q18】 even the founders of our country in their fight to win independence from England were radicals.?Their presence in history has changed the way our society functions, mainly by shifting the balance of power that previously existed. Of course, there are some radicals who've made a n

35、egative impact on humanity,?【Q18】 but undeniably, there would simply be no progress without radicals. That been said, next time someone calls me a radical, I would accept that label with pride. 　　Q16: What usually happens when people are accused of being radical? 　　Q17: What is the speaker's def

36、inition of a radical? 　　Q18: What does the speaker think of most radicals in the American history? 　　Recording 2 　　We are very susceptible to the influence of the people around us. For instance, you may have known somebody who has gone overseas for a year or so and has returned with an accent p

37、erhaps. We become part of our immediate environment. None of us are immune to the influences of our own world and let us not kid ourselves that we are untouched by the things and people in our life. 　　Fred goes off to his new job at a factory. Fred takes his ten-minute coffee break, but the other w

38、orkers take half an hour. Fred says, “What’s the matter with you guys?” Two weeks later, Fred is taking twenty-minute breaks. A month later, Fred takes his half hour. Fred is saying “If you can’t be them, join them. Why should I work any harder than the next guy?” The fascinating thing about being h

39、uman is that generally we are unaware that there are changes taking place in our mentality. It is like returning to the city smog after some weeks in the fresh air. Only then do we realize that we’ve become accustomed to the nasty smells. Mix with critical people and we learn to criticize. Mix with

40、happy people, and we learn about happiness. What this means is that we need to decide what we want from life and then choose our company accordingly. You may well say, "That is going to take some effort. It may not be comfortable. I may offend some of my present company." Right, but it is your life.

41、 Fred may say, "I’m always broke, frequently depressed. I’m going nowhere and I never do anything exciting." Then we discover that Fred’s best friends are always broke, frequently depressed, going nowhere and wishing that life was more exciting. This is not coincidence, nor is it our business to sta

42、nd in judgement of Fred? However, if Fred ever wants to improve his quality of life, the first thing he'll need to do is recognize what has been going on all these years. 　　It’s no surprise that doctors as a profession suffer a lot of ill health, because they spend their life around sick people. Ps

43、ychiatrists have a higher incidence of suicide in their profession for related reasons. Traditionally, nine out of ten children whose parents smoke, smoke themselves. Obesity is in part an environmental problem. Successful people have successful friends, and so the story goes on. 　　Q19 What does th

44、e speaker say about us as human beings? 　　Q20 What does the speaker say Fred should do first to improve his quality of life? 　　Q21 What does the speaker say about the psychiatrists? 　　Section C 　　Lecture 3 　　Virtually every American can recognize a dollar bill at a mere glance. Many can identif

45、y it by its sound or texture. But 【Q22】few people indeed can accurately describe the world's most powerful, important currency. 　　The American dollar bill is colored with black ink on one side and green on the other;【Q23】 the exact composition of the paper and ink is a closely guarded government se

46、cret. Despite its weighty importance, the dollar bill actually weighs little. It requires nearly 500 bills to tip the scales at a pound. Not only is the dollar bill lightweight, but it also has a brief life span. Few dollar bills survive longer than 18 months. 　　The word "dollar" is taken from the

47、German word "taler," the name for the world's most important currency in the 16th century. The taler was a silver coin first minted in 1518 under the reign of Charles V, Emperor of Germany. 　　The concept of paper money is a relatively recent innovation in the history of American currency. When the

48、Constitution was signed, people had little regard for paper money because of its steadily decreasing value during the colonial era.【Q24】Because of this lack of faith, the new American government minted only coins for common currency. Interest-bearing bank notes were issued at the same time, but thei

49、r purpose was limited to providing money for urgent government crises, such as American involvement in the War of 1812. 　　The first noninterest-bearing paper currency was authorized by Congress in 1862, at the height of the Civil War. At this point, citizens' old fears of devalued paper currency ha

50、d calmed, and the dollar bill was born. The new green colored paper money quickly earned the nickname "greenback." 　　Today, the American dollar bill is a product of the Federal Reserve and is issued from the twelve Federal Reserve banks around the United States. The government keeps a steady supply

51、 of approximately two billion bills in circulation at all times. 　　Controversy continues to surround the true value of the dollar bill.【Q25】American history has seen generations of politicians argue in favor of a gold standard for American currency. However, for the present, the American dollar bil

52、l holds the value that is printed on it, and little more. The only other guarantee on the bill is a Federal Reserve pledge of as a confirmation in the form of government securities. 　　Q22: What does the speaker say about the American dollar bill? 　　Q23: What does the speaker say about the exact co

53、mposition of the American dollar bill? 　　Q24: Why did the new American government mint only coins for common currency? 　　Q25: What have generations of American politicians argued for? 參考答案 1.A)She can devote all her life to pursing her passion. 2.D)Science education and scientific research. 3.

61、畫得栩栩如生，具有鮮明的個性。小說詳盡地描述了四個貴族世家興衰的歷程，反映了封建社會隱藏的種種危機(jī)和錯綜復(fù)雜的社會沖突。 　　《紅樓夢》融合了現(xiàn)實(shí)主義和浪漫主義，具有很強(qiáng)的藝術(shù)感染力。它被普遍認(rèn)為是中國最偉大的小說，也是世界上最偉大的文學(xué)創(chuàng)作之一。 　　Dream of the Red Chamber is a novel written by Cao Xueqin in the 18th century， who， based on his own hard life experi- ence， tells the tragic love story between Jia Baoyu

62、and Lin Daiyu. In the book， there are about 30 major characters and over 400 minor ones， each of whom is depicted vividly with distinctive personalities. The novel narrates exhaustively the rise and fall of four aristocratic families， reflecting vari- ous crises and complicated social conflicts that

63、 lurk in the feudal society. 　　Dream of the Red Chamber， which integrates realism and ro- manticism and generates strong artistic appeal， is universal- ly acknowledged as the greatest Chinese novel and one of the world' s literary masterpieces. 　　《西游記》(Journey to the West)也許是中國文學(xué)四大經(jīng)典小說中最具影響力的一部，
