part ii reading comprehension (35 minutes)

questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

passage one

too many vulnerable child-free adults are being ruthlessly(无情的)manipulated into parent-hood by their parents , who think that happiness among older people depends on having a grand-child to spoil. we need an organization to help beat down the persistent campaigns of grandchildless parents. it’s time to establish planned grandparenthood, which would have many global and local benefits. [page]

part of its mission would be to promote the risks and realities associated with being a grandparent. the staff would include depressed grandparents who would explain how grandkids break lamps, bite, scream and kick. others would detail how an hour of baby-sitting often turns into a crying marathon. more grandparents would testify that they had to pay for their grandchild’s expensive college education.

planned grandparenthood’s carefully written literature would detail all the joys of life grand-child-free a calm living room, extra money for luxuries during the golden years, etc. potential grandparents would be reminded that, without grandchildren around, it’s possible to have a conversation with your kids, who----incidentally-----would have more time for their own parents .

meanwhile, most children are vulnerable to the enormous influence exerted by grandchildless parents aiming to persuade their kids to produce children . they will take a call from a persistent parent, even if they’re loaded with works. in addition, some parents make handsome money offers payable upon the grandchild’s birth. sometimes these gifts not only cover expenses associated with the infant’s birth, but extras, too, like a vacation. in any case, cash gifts can weaken the resolve of even the noblest person.

at planned grandparenthood, children targeted by their parents to reproduce could obtain non-biased information about the insanity of having their own kids. the catastrophic psychological and economic costs of childbearing would be emphasized. the symptoms of morning sickness would be listed and horrors of childbirth pictured. a monthly newsletter would contain stories about overwhelmed parents and offer guidance on how childless adults can respond to the different lobbying tactics that would-be grandparents employ.

when i think about all the problems of our overpopulated world and look at our boy grabbing at the lamp by the sofa, i wish i could have turned to planned grandparenthood when my parents were putting the grandchild squeeze on me.

if i could have, i might not be in this parenthood predicament( 窘境) . but here’s the crazy irony, i don’t want my child-free life back . dylan’s too much fun.

21. what’s the purpose of the proposed organization planned grandparenthood?

a) to encourage childless couples to have children.

b) to provide facilities and services for grandchildless parents.

d) help raise funds to cover the high expense of education for grandchildren

23. according to the passage, some couples may eventually choose to have children because_____.

a) they find it hard to resist the carrot-and-stick approach of their parents

b) they have learn from other parents about the joys of having children

c) they feel more and more lonely ad they grow older

d) they have found it irrational to remain childless

passage two

questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

ask most people how they define the american dream and chances are they’ll say, “success.” the dream of individual opportunity has been home in american since europeans discovered a “new world” in the western hemisphere. early immigrants like hector st. jean de crevecoeur praised highly the freedom and opportunity to be found in this new land. his glowing descriptions of a classless society where anyone could attain success through honesty and hard work fired the imaginations of many european readers: in letters from an american farmer (1782) he wrote. “we are all excited at the spirit of an industry which is unfettered (无拘无束的) and unrestrained, because each person works for himself … we have no princes, for whom we toil (干苦力活)，starve, and bleed: we are the most perfect society now existing in the world.” the promise of a land where “the rewards of a man’s industry follow with equal steps the progress of his labor” drew poor immigrants from europe and fueled national expansion into the western territories. [page]

our national mythology (神化) is full of illustration the american success story. there’s benjamin franklin, the very model of the self-educated, self-made man, who rose from modest origins to become a well-known scientist, philosopher, and statesman. in the nineteenth century, horatio alger, a writer of fiction for young boys, became american’s best-selling author with rags-to-riches tales. the notion of success haunts us: we spend million every year reading about the rich and famous, learning how to “make a fortune in real estate with no money down,” and “dressing for success.” the myth of success has even invaded our personal relationships: today it’s as important to be “successful” in marriage or parenthoods as it is to come out on top in business.

but dreams easily turn into nightmares. every american who hopes to “make it” also knows the fear of failure, because the myth of success inevitably implies comparison between the haves and the have-nots, the stars and the anonymous crowd. under pressure of the myth, we become indulged in status symbols: we try to live in the “right” neighborhoods, wear the “right” clothes, eat the “right” foods. these symbols of distinction assure us and others that we believe strongly in the fundamental equality of all, yet strive as hard as we can to separate ourselves from our fellow citizens.

26. what is the essence of the american dream according to crevecoeur?

a) people are free to develop their power of imagination.

b) people who are honest and work hard can succeed.

c) people are free from exploitation and oppression.

d) people can fully enjoy individual freedom.

27.by saying “the rewards of a man’s industry follow with equal steps the progress of his labor” (line 10, para. 1), the author means __________ .

a) the more diligent one is, the bigger his returns

b) laborious work ensures the growth of an industry

c) a man’s business should be developed step by step

d) a company’s success depends on its employees’ hard work

28. the characters described in horatio alger’s novels are people who _______.

a) succeed in real estate investment

b) earned enormous fortunes by chances

c) became wealthy after starting life very poor

d) became famous despite their modest origins

29. it can be inferred from the last sentence of the second paragraph that _________.

a) business success often contributes to a successful marriage

b) americans wish to succeed in every aspect of life

c) good personal relationships lead to business success

d) successful business people provide good care for their children

30. what is the paradox of american culture according to the author?

a) the american road to success is full of nightmares.

b) status symbols are not a real indicator of a person’s wealth.

c) the american dream is nothing but an empty dream.

d) what americans strive after often contradicts their beliefs.

passage three

questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

public distrust of scientists stems in part from the blurring of boundaries between science and technology, between discovery and manufacture. most government, perhaps all governments, justify public expenditure on scientific research in terms of the economic benefits the scientific enterprise ha brought in the past and will bring in the future. politicians remind their voters of the splendid machines ‘our scientists’ have invented, the new drugs to relieve old ailments (病痛), and the new surgical equipment and techniques by which previously intractable (难治疗的) conditions may now be treated and lives saved. at the same time, the politicians demand of scientists that they tailor their research to ‘economics needs’, that they award a higher priority to research proposals that are ‘near the market’ and can be translated into the greatest return on investment in the shortest time. dependent, as they are, on politicians for much of their funding, scientists have little choice but to comply. like the rest of us, they are members of a society that rates the creation of wealth as the greatest possible good. many have reservations, but keep them to themselves in what they perceive as a climate hostile to the pursuit of understanding for its own sake and the idea of an inquiring, creative spirit. [page]

in such circumstances no one should be too hard on people who are suspicious of conflicts of interest. when we learn that the distinguished professor assuring us of the safety of a particular product holds a consultancy with the company making it, we cannot be blamed for wondering whether his fee might conceivably cloud his professional judgment. even if the professor holds no consultancy with any firm, some people many still distrust him because of his association with those who do, or at least wonder about the source of some his research funding.

this attitude can have damaging effects. it questions the integrity of individuals working in a profession that prizes intellectual honesty as the supreme virtue, and plays into the hands of those who would like to discredit scientists by representing then a venal (可以收买的). this makes it easier to dismiss all scientific pronouncements, but especially those made by the scientists who present themselves as ‘experts’. the scientist most likely to understand the safety of a nuclear reactor, for example, is a nuclear engineer declares that a reactor is unsafe, we believe him, because clearly it is not to his advantage to lie about it. if he tells us it is safe, on the other hand, we distrust him, because he may well be protecting the employer who pays his salary.

31. what is the chief concern of most governments when it comes to scientific research?

a) support from the votes.

b) the reduction of public expenditure.

c) quick economics returns.

d) the budget for a research project.

32. scientist have to adapt their research to ‘economic needs’ in order to _________ .

a) impress the public with their achievements

b) pursue knowledge for knowledge’s sake

c) obtain funding from the government

d) translate knowledge into wealth

33. why won’t scientists complain about the government’s policy concerning scientific research?

a) they think they work in an environment hostile to the free pursuit of knowledge.

b) they are accustomed to keeping their opinions to themselves.

c) they know it takes patience to win support from the public.

d) they think compliance with government policy is in the interests of the public.

34. according to the author, people are suspicious of the professional judgment of scientists because ___________ .

a) their pronouncements often turn out to be wrong

b) sometimes they hide the source of their research funding

c) some of them do not give priority to intellectual honesty

d) they could be influenced by their association with the project concerned

35. why does the author say that public distrust of scientists can have damaging effects?

a) it makes things difficult for scientists seeking research funds.

b) people would not believe scientists even when they tell the truth.

c) it may dampen the enthusiasm of scientists for independent research.

d) scientists themselves may doubt the value of their research findings.

passage four

questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

in many ways, today’s business environment has changed qualitatively since the late 1980s. the end of the cold war radically altered the very nature of the world’s politics and economics. in just a few short years, globalization has started a variety of trends with profound consequences: the opening of markets, true global competition, widespread deregulation (解除政府对……的控制) of industry, and an abundance of accessible capital. we have experienced both the benefits and risks of a truly global economy, with both wall street and main street (平民百姓) feeling the pains of economic disorder half a world away.

at the same time, we have fully entered the information age, starting breakthroughs in information technology have irreversibly altered the ability to conduct business unconstrained by the traditional limitations of time or space. today, it’s almost impossible to imagine a world without intranets, e-mail, and portable computers. with stunning speed, the internet is profoundly changing the way we work, shop, do business, and communicate. [page]

as a consequence, we have truly entered the post-industrial economy. we are rapidly shifting from an economy based on manufacturing and commodities to one that places the greatest value on information, services, support, and distribution. that shift, in turn, place an unprecedented premium on “knowledge workers,” a new class of wealthy, educated, and mobile people who view themselves as free agents in a seller’s market.

beyond the realm of information technology, the accelerated pace of technological change in virtually every industry has created entirely new business, wiped out others, and produced a pervasive( 广泛的) demand for continuous innovation. new product, process ,and distribution technologies provide powerful levers for creating competitive value. more companies are learning the importance of destructive technologies-----innovations that hold the potential to make a product line, or even an entire business segment, virtually outdated.

another major trend has been the fragmentation of consumer and business markets. there’s a growing appreciation that superficially similar groups of customers may have very different preferences in terms of what they want to buy and how they want to buy it. now, new technology makes it easier, faster ,and cheaper to identify and serve targeted micro-markets in ways that were physically impossible or prohibitively expensive in the past. moreover, the trend feeds on itself, a business’s ability to serve sub-markets fuels customers’ appetites for more and more specialized offerings.

36. according to the first paragraph, the chances in the business environment in the past decades can be attributed to __________.

a) technological advances

b) worldwide economic disorder

c) the fierce competition in industry

d) the globalization of economy

37. what idea does the author want to convey in the second paragraph ?

a) the rapid development of information technology has taken businessmen by surprise

b) information technology has removed the restrictions of time and space in business transactions

c) the internet, intranets, e-mail, and portable computers have penetrated every corner of the world.

d) the way we do business today has brought about startling breakthroughs in information technology.

38. if a business wants to thrive in the post-industrial economy,__________

a) it has to invest more capital in the training of free agents to operate in a seller’s market

b) it should try its best to satisfy the increasing demands of mobile knowledgeable people

c) it should not overlook the importance of information, services, support, and distribution

d) it has to provide each of its employees with the latest information about the changing market

39. in the author’s view, destructive technologies are innovations which _________

a) can eliminate an entire business segment

b) demand a radical change in providing services

c) may destroy the potential of a company to make any profit

d) call for continuous improvement in ways of doing business

40. with the fragmentation of consumer and business markets ______________

a) an increasing number of companies have disintegrated

b) manufacturers must focus on one special product to remain competitive in the market

c) it is physically impossible and prohibitively expensive to do business in the old way

d) businesses have to meet individual customers’ specific needs in order to succeed .

part ii reading comprehension (skimming and scanning ) (15 minutes)

space tourism

make your reservations now. the space tourism industry is officially open for business, and tickets are going for a mere $20 million for a one-week stay in space. despite reluctance from national air and space administration (nasa), russia made american businessman dennis tito the world's first space tourist. tito flew into space aboard a russian soyuz rocket that arrived at the international space station (iss) on april 30,. the second space tourist, south african businessman mark shuttle worth, took off aboard the russian soyuz on april 25, , also bound for the iss.

lance bass of'n sync was supposed to be the third to make the $20 million trip, but he did not join the three-man crew as they blasted off on october 30,2002, due to lack of payment. probably the most incredible aspect of this proposed space tour was that nasa approved of it.

these trips are the beginning of what could be a profitable 21st century industry. there are already several space tourism companies planning to build suborbital vehicles and orbital cities within the next two decades. these companies have invested millions, believing that the space tourism industry is on the verge of taking off.

in , nasa published a report concluding that selling trips into space to private citizens could be worth billions of dollars. a japanese report supports these findings, and projects that space tourism could be a $10 billion per year industry within the next two decades. the only obstacles to opening up space to tourists are the space agencies, who are concerned with safety and the development of a reliable, reusable launch vehicle.

space accommodations

russia's mir space station was supposed to be the first destination for space tourists. but in march 2001, the russian agency brought mir down into the pacific ocean. as it turned out, bringing down mir only temporarily delayed the first tourist trip into space.

the mir crash did cancel plans for a new reality-based game show from nbc, which was going to be called destination mir. the survivor-like tv show was scheduled to air in fall 2001. participants on the show were to go through training at russia's cosmonaut(宇航员) training center, star city. each week, one of the participants would be eliminated from the show, with the winner receiving a trip to the mir space station. the mir crash has ruled out nbc's space plants for now. nasa is against beginning space tourism until the international space station is completed in .

russia in not alone in its interest in space tourism. there are several projects underway to commercialize space travel. here are a few of the groups that might take tourists to space:

space island group is going to build a ring-shaped, rotating “commercial space infrastructure(基础结构).”space island says it will build its space city out of of empty nasa space-shuttle fuel tanks (to start, it should take around 12 or so), and place it about 400 miles above earth. the space city will rotate once per minute to create a gravitational pull one-third as strong as earth's.

according to their vision statement, space adventures plants to “fly tents of thousands of people in space over the next 10-15 years and beyond, around the moon, and back, from spaceports both on earth and in space, to and form private space stations, and aboard dozens of different vehicles...”

even hilton hotels has shown interest in the space tourism industry and the possibility of building or co-funding a space hotel. however, the company did say that it believes such a space hotel is 15 to 20 years away.

initially, space tourism will offer simple accommodations at best. for instance, if the international space station is used as a tourist attraction, guests won't find the luxurious surroundings of a hotel room on earth. it has been designed for conducting research, not entertainment. however, the first generation of space hotels should offer tourists a much more comfortable experience.

in regard to a concept for a space hotel initially planned by space island, such a hotel could offer guests every convenience they might find at a hotel on earth, and some they might not. the small gravitational pull created by the rotating space city would allow space-tourists and residents to walk around and function normally within the structure. everything from running water to a recycling plant to medical facilities would be possible. additionally, space tourists would even be able to take spacewalks.

many of these companies believe that they have to offer an extremely enjoyable experience in order for passengers to pay thousands, if not millions, of dollars to ride into space. so will space create another separation between the haves and have-nots?

the most expensive vacation

will space be an exotic retreat reserved for only the wealthy? or will middle-class folks have a chance to take their families to space? make no mistake about it, going to space will be the most expensive vacation you ever take. prices right now are in the tens of millions of dollars. currently, the only vehicles that can take you into space are the space shuttle and the russian soyuz, both of which are terribly inefficient. each spacecraft requires millions of pounds of fuel to take off into space, which makes them expensive to launch. one pound of payload (有效栽载重) costs about $10,000 to put into earth's orbit.

nasa and lockheed martin are currently developing a single-stage-to-orbit launch space plane, called the venture star , that could be launched for about a tenth of what the space shuttle costs to launch. if the venture star takes off, the number of people who could afford to take a trip into space would move into the millions.

in , a joint report from nasa and the space transportation association stated that improvements in technology could push fares for space travel as low as $50,000, and possibly down to $20,000 or $10,000 a decade later. the report concluded that at a ticket price of $50,000, there could be 500,000 passengers flying into space each year. while still leaving out many people, these prices would open up space to a tremendous amount of traffic.

since the beginning of the space race, the general public has said, “isn't that great-when do i get to go?” well, our chance might be closer than ever. within the next 20 years, space planes could be taking off for the moon at the same frequency as airplanes flying between new york and los angeles.

part iv reading comprehension (reading in depth) (25 minutes)

section a

questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.

i've heard from and talked to many people who described how mother nature simplified their lives for them. they'd lost their home and many or all of their possessions through fires, floods, earthquakes, or some other disaster. losing everything you own under such circumstances can be distressing, but the people i've heard from all saw their loss, ultimately, as a blessing.   [page]

“the fire saved us the agony of deciding what to keep and what to get rid of,” one woman wrote. and once all those things were no longer there, she and her husband saw how they had weighed them down and complicated their lives.

“there was so much stuff we never used and that was just taking up space. we vowed when we started over, we'd replace only what we needed, and this time we'd do it right. we've kept our promise: we don't have much now, but what we have is exactly what we want.”

though we've never had a catastrophic loss such as that, gibbs and i did have a close call shortly before we decided to simplify. at that time we lived in a fire zone. one night a firestorm raged through and destroyed over six hundred homes in our community. that tragedy gave us the opportunity to look objectively at the goods we'd accumulated.

we saw that there was so much we could get rid of and not only never miss, but be better off without. having almost lost it all, we found it much easier to let go of the things we knew we'd never use again.

obviously, there's a tremendous difference between getting rid of possessions and losing them through a natural disaster without having a say in the matter. and this is not to minimize the tragedy and pain such a loss can generate.

but you might think about how you would approach the acquisition process if you had it to do all over again. look around your home and make a list of what you would replace.    make another list of things you wouldn't acquire again no matter what, and in fact would be happy to be rid of.

when you're ready to start unloading some of your stuff, that list will be a good place to start.

50. according to the author, getting rid of possessions and losing them through a natural disaster are vastly ________________.

51. what does the author suggest people do with unnecessary things?

section b

passage one

questions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.

in a purely biological sense, fear begins with the body's system for reacting to things that can harm us- the so-called fight-or-flight response. “an animal that can't detect danger can't stay alive,” says joseph ledoux. like animals, humans evolved with an elaborate mechanism for processing information about potential threats. at its core is a cluster of neurons(神经元) deep in the brain known as the amygdala (扁桃核).

ledoux studies the way animals and humans respond to threats to understand how we form memories of significant events in our lives. the amygdala receives input from many parts of the brain, including regions responsible for retrieving memories. using this information, the amygdala appraised a situation- i think this charging dog wants to bite me-and triggers a response by radiating nerve signals throughout the body. these signals produce the familiar signs of distress: trembling, perspiration and fast-moving feet, just to name three.

this fear mechanism is critical to the survival of all animals, but no one can say for sure whether beasts other than humans know they're afraid. that is, as ledoux says, “if you put that system into a brain that has consciousness, then you get the feeling of fear.”

humans, says edward m. hallowell, have the ability to call up images of bad things that happened in the past and to anticipate future events. combine these higher thought processes with our hardwired danger-detection systems, and you get a near-universal human phenomenon: worry.     that's not necessarily a bad thing, says hallowell. “when used properly, worry is an incredible device,” he says. after all, a little healthy worrying is okay if it leads to constructive action-like having a doctor look at that weird spot on your back.     [page]

hallowell insists, though, that there's a right way to worry. “never do it alone, get the facts and then make a plan,” he says. most of us have survived a recession, so we're familiar with the belt-tightening strategies needed to survive a slump.

unfortunately, few of us have much experience dealing with the threat of terrorism, so it's been difficult to get facts about how we should respond. that's why hallowell believes it was okay for people to indulge some extreme worries last fall by asking doctors for cipro and buying gas masks.

passage two

questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

amitai etzioni is not surprised by the latest headings about scheming corporate crooks（骗子）. as a visiting professor at the harvard business school in 1989. he ended his work there disgusted with his students' overwhelming lust for money. “they're taught that profit is all that matters” he says. “many school don't even offer ethics (伦理学) courses at all.”

etzioni expressed his frustration about the interests of his graduate students. “by and large. i clearly had not found a way to help classes full of mbas see that there is more to life than money, power, fame and self-interest,” he wore at the time. today he still takes the blame for not educating these “business-leaders-to-be.” “i really feel like i failed them,” he says. “if i was a better teacher maybe i could have reached them.”

etzioni was a respected ethics expert when he arrived at harvard. he hoped his work at the university would give him insight into how questions of morality could be applied to places where self-interest flourished. what he found wasn't encouraging. those would-be executives had, says etzioni, little interest in concept of ethics and morality in the boardroom-and their professor was met with blank stares when he urged his students to see business in new and different ways.

etzioni sees the experience at harvard as an eye-opening one and says there's much about business schools that he'd like to change. “a lot of the faculty teaching business are bad news themselves, to reinforcing the notion of profit over community interests, etzioni has seen a lot that's left him shaking his head. and because of what he's seen taught in business schools, he's not surprised by the latest rash of corporate scandals. ”in many ways things have got a lot worse at business schools. i suspect,“ says etzioni.[page]

etzioni is still teaching the sociology of right and wrong and still calling for ethical business leadership. ”people with poor motives will always exist,“ he says. ”sometimes environments constrain those people and sometimes environments give those people opportunity.“ etzioni says the booming economy of the last decade enabled those individuals with poor motives to get rich before getting in trouble. his hope now: that the cries for reform will provide more fertile soil for his long-standing messages about business ethics.

the importance of reading classics

1、阅读经典书籍队人的成长至关重要

2、现在愿意阅读经典的人越来越少，原因是……

3、我们大学生应该怎么做

审题：原因现象类。可用模式，中心句＋1、2、3。因为是外语考试文章，观点不用细查，重要的语音表达。请一定记住，简单但严重错误是应该尽力避免的，宁可简单也别出现这种错误。本样文有些不妥之处，但完全符合四六级写作的基本要求，中心突出（把提纲变为英文，以段首句形式出现），层次分明（逻辑词，即连接词的恰当应用），语言有变化（近意表达，举行转化），无重大语音错误。[page]

now some people, especially the elderly, are of the view that classics play a significant role in the life. english learners, for example, can benefit a lot from the famous readings, or classical books. besides, they maintain that their childhood is exposed to these great minds.

however, young men in growing numbers seldom enjoy reading these articles or books. in other words, they find few interests in reading so-called classics. a lot of reasons are responsible for this. to begin with, they are in the shadow of practical minds. these classics may not meet the needs. what’s more, online reading is a good way for people to get information easily and efficiently. moreover, the young people are too busy to read them.

from what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that effective actions should be taken to prevent the situation. first, we can enjoy these minds in our free time. second, these articles or novels will be arranged for further reading in our retirement. certainly, it is high time that we placed great emphasis on the issue.

The way to success

What is success? In fact, success is a positive feeling, it is a state of confidence after we achieve our ideals So all of us will try our best to get success.”If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z..Hardworking is x; y is good methods and z is stop talking and get down to work.“It is said by Einstein, who is used to be a winner of the Nobel Prize. According to this Wisdom, we known that if we want to do everything successful, we must follow these ways.

When we begin to study, our parents and teachers always told us to study hard. Hardworking, which is an useful way to success, is necessary for us. Hardworking, which means we should try our best to do the things. Besides, if you want to get success, we not only need hardworking, but also have some useful methods.

篇6：12月大学英语六级考试真题及答案

The core objective for universities which are research-led must be to maximise the impact oftheir research efforts. These universities should be generating the widest range of social, economic and environmental benefits. In return for the scale of investment, they should share their expertise in order to build greater confidence in the sector.

Part of the economic recovery of the UK will be driven by the next generation of research commercialisation spilling out of our universities. There are three dozen universities in the UKwhich are actively engaged in advanced research training and commercialisation work.

If there was a greater coordination of technology transfer offices within regions and a simultaneous investment in the scale and functions of our graduate schools, universities could, and should, play a key role in positioning the UK for the next growth cycle.

篇8：12月大学英语六级考试真题及答案

Section A

Directions: In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2.

Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.

Leadership is the most significant word in today's competitive business environment because it directs the manager of a business to focus inward on their personal capabilities and style. Experts on leadership will quickly point out that ”how things get done“ influences the success of the outcomes and indicates a right way and a wrong way to do things. When a noted leader on the art of management, Peter Drucker, coined the phrase ”Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things,“ he was seeking to clarify the distinctions he associates with the terms.

When Stephen Covey, founder and director of the Leadership Institute, explored leadership styles in the past decade, he focused on the habits of a great number of highly effective individuals. His Seven Habits of Highly Effective People became a popular bestseller very quickly. His ideas forced a reexamination of the early leadership paradigm (范例), which he observed centered on traits found in the character ethic and the personality ethic. The former ethic suggested success was founded on integrity, modesty, loyalty, courage, patience, and so forth. The personality ethic suggested it was one's attitude, not behavior, that inspired success, and this ethic was founded on a belief of positive mental attitude. In contrast to each of these ideas, Covey advocates that leaders need to understand universal principles of effectiveness, and he highlights how vital it is for leaders to first personally manage themselves if they are to enjoy any hope of outstanding success in their work environments. To achieve a desired vision for your business, it is vital that you have a personal vision of where you are headed and what you value. Business leadership means that managers need to ”put first things first,“ which implies that before leading others, you need to be clear on your own values, abilities, and strengths and be seen as trustworthy.

47. To be good leaders, managers must pay close attention to their own _____.

48. According to Peter Drucker, leaders should be good at _____.

49. The personality ethic suggests that people are likely to succeed if they have _____.

50. According to Stephen Covey, leaders who hope to achieve outstanding success need first of all to _____.

51. Good leadership requires one to know one's own strengths and be able to win people's _____.

Section B

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 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.

What's the one word of advice a well-meaning professional would give to a recent college graduate? China”} India! Brazil! How about trade!

When the Commerce Department reported last week that the trade deficit in June approached $50 billion, it set off a new round of economic doomsaying. Imports, which soared to $200.3 billion in the month, are subtracted in the calculation of gross domestic product. The larger the trade deficit, the smaller the GDP. Should such imbalances continue, pessimists say, they could contribute to slower growth.

But there's another way of looking at the trade data. Over the past two years, the figures on imports and exports seem not to signal a double-dip recession C a renewed decline in the broad level of economic activity in the United States C but an economic expansion.

The rising volume of trade C more goods and services shuttling in and out of the United States C is good news for many sectors. Companies engaged in shipping, trucking, rail freight, delivery,

and logistics (物流) have all been reporting better than expected results. The rising numbers signify growing vitality in foreign markets C when we import more stuff, it puts more cash in the hands of people around the world, and U.S. exports are rising because more foreigners have the ability to buy the things we produce and market. The rising tide of trade is also good news for people who work in trade-sensitive businesses, especially those that produce commodities for which global demand sets the price C agricultural goods, mining, metals, oil.

And while exports always seem to lag, U.S. companies are becoming more involved in the global economy with each passing month. General Motors sells as many cars in China as in America each month. While that may not do much for imports, it does help GM's balance sheet C and hence makes the jobs of U.S.-based executives more stable.

One great challenge for the U.S. economy is slack domestic consumer demand. Americans are

paying down debt, saving more, and spending more carefully. That's to be expected, given what we've been through. But there's a bigger challenge. Can U.S.-based businesses, large and small, figure out how to get a piece of growing global demand? Unless you want to pick up and move to India, or Brazil, or China, the best way to do that is through trade. It may seem obvious, but it's no longer enough simply to do business with our friends and neighbors here at home.

Companies and individuals who don't have a strategy to export more, or to get more involved in foreign markets, or to play a role in global trade, are shutting themselves out of the lion's share of economic opportunity in our world.

注意：此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

52. How do pessimists interpret the U.S. trade deficit in June?

A) It reflects Americans' preference for imported goods.

B) It signifies a change in American economic structure.

C) It is the result of America's growing focus on domestic market.

D) It could lead to slower growth of the national economy.

53. What does the author say about the trade data of the past two years?

A) It indicates that economic activities in the U.S. have increased.

B) It shows that U.S. economy is slipping further into recession.

C) It signals decreasing domestic demand for goods and services.

D) It reflects the fluctuations in the international market.

54. Who particularly benefit from the rising volume of trade?

A) People who have expertise in international trade.

B) Consumers who favor imported goods and services.

C) Producers of agricultural goods and raw materials.

D) Retailers dealing in foreign goods and services.

55. What is one of the challenges facing the American economy?

A) Competition from overseas. C) Slack trade activities.

B) People's reluctance to spend. D) Decreasing productivity.

56. What is the author's advice to U.S. companies and individuals?

A) To import more cheap goods from developing countries.

B) To move their companies to where labor is cheaper.

C) To increase their market share overseas.

D) To be alert to fluctuations in foreign markets.

Passage Two

Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

A recurring criticism of the UK's university sector is its perceived weakness in translating new knowledge into new products and services.

Recently, the UK National Stem Cell Network warned the UK could lose its place among the world leaders in stem cell research unless adequate funding and legislation could be assured. We should take this concern seriously as universities are key in the national innovation system.

However, we do have to challenge the unthinking complaint that the sector does not do enough in taking ideas to market. The most recent comparative data on the performance of universities and research institutions in Australia, Canada, USA and UK shows that, from a relatively weak startingposition, the UK now leads on many indicators of commercialisation activity.

When viewed at the national level, the policy interventions of the past decade have helpedtransform the performance of UK universities. Evidence suggests the UK's position is much stronger than in the recent past and is still showing improvement. But national data masks the very largevariation in the performance of individual universities. The evidence shows that a large number ofuniversities have fallen off the back of the pack, a few perform strongly and the rest chase theleaders.

This type of uneven distribution is not peculiar to the UK and is mirrored across other economies. In the UK, research is concentrated: less than 25% of universities receive 75% of the research funding. These same universities are also the institutions producing the greatest share of PhD graduates, science citations, patents and licence income. The effect of policies generating long-term resource concentration has also created a distinctive set of universities which are research-led and commercially active. It seems clear that the concentration of research and commercialisation work creates differences between universities.

篇9：12月大学英语六级考试真题及答案

Part I Writing

A 【标准版】

Man and Computer

Ever since the birth of it, the computer has largely changed human being’s life and there has been a hot debate about its effects on humans. Undeniably, computers have taken the place of humans in many areas and it seems that computers begin to think like man, but this does not necessarily lead to the danger that man will think like computers.

The reasons, in my opinion, are as follows. Firstly, when computers release human from repetitive tasks, humans themselves can spend more time on creative works, such as scientific research, which require imagination and cannot be completed by computers. Meanwhile, thanks to computers, humans get more spare time with their friends and family, which enhances their happiness. Moreover, even though computers can work automatically, the premise is that the program, which is written by humans, has been installed in it.

In conclusion, humans, unlike computers, have creative ability, emotional desires and social bounds. Thus, I don’t think that there will be the danger that man will begin to think like the computer.

【高分版】

Man and Computer

It is believed that the computer is bringing the world into a brand new era. At the time the computer was invented, scientists, marveling at its calculating speed, felt that they had created a miracle. Nowadays, the function of the computer is no longer confined to calculation; it permeates people’s daily lives and has become an inseparable part of human society.

People become so heavily dependent on computers that it is hard to imagine the life without computers. Therefore, some people are worried that “The real danger is not that the computer will think like man, but man will think like the computer.” Their concern does make sense. Indeed, some people spend such a long time working on computers that they have few interactions with people in real life. According to a research, too many hours in front of a computer may lead to a poker face and interpersonal isolation. This fact should arouse our attention, because unlike computers, human beings are social creatures that need emotional connections with others.

Yet, it is also unnecessary for us to be overwhelmed by the negative impacts of computers. After all, we humans are intelligent and will be able to figure out better ways to make improvements.

范文第一段首先 陈述电脑自发明以来对人们生活的深刻的影响， 从而为第二段内容的陈述奠定基础。

第二段第一句话先自然地过渡，引出题干中的引言。对引言作出评价：这样的担忧确实不是空穴来风。然后用例子证明现代生活中电脑已经对人们的思维和习惯带来的负面影响。呼吁大家引起重视，因为人毕竟不同于电脑，是有情感需求的。

最后一段是一个转折， 提出对于电脑对人的影响也不用太悲观，因为人毕竟是有智慧、有主观能动性的， 一定会想出改善不足的方法。这样的转折使作者的观点更全面、有说服力。

On Maintaining Trust

Trust is the most frequently used word when we are talking about interpersonal relationships. However, it is hard to build trust but easy to destroy it. Therefore, how to build and maintain trust is very important for us. In my opinion, some factors play a primary role in it.

First comes honesty. There’s an old saying in Chinese: once bitten, twice shy. Thus, never lie to your partners. If they find out you’re lying or cheating, the existing trust will be broken. Once broken, it’s always hard to rebuild it. Promise-keeping is the second one. If you always break your promise, you will not be trusted by others any more. Another important aspect is attitude. People with good attitude are always welcome. They show their good manners, patience, modesty, willingness to communicate and, most important of all, sincerity to others, which contributes greatly to eliminating apathy and coldness.

There are, still, other influential factors. However, from my perspective, honesty, promise-keeping and good attitude stand out among them.

On maintaining trust

Trust is a key strategy for building effective relationships with the people we come into contact with, including our team members, peers and customers. If you want to have a positive influence over anyone or anything, you need to earn trust first.

As the level of trust develops, however, there will be situations and incidents that shake the foundations that have been built. Therefore, maintain trust is even more important. There are several keys to maintain trust. First is integrity. You need to remain honest and morally upright. The second is stick to your words. If you say you would do something, then do it, otherwise never say it. For once you break your promises, you can hardly reestablish it.

Trust is built and maintained by many small actions over time. Trust is telling the truth, even when it is difficult, and being truthful, authentic, and trustworthy in your dealings with other people. Only by maintain trust can one make real achievements and enjoy a rewarding life.
