2014 年 6 月大学英语六级答案与详解(一)12014 年 6 月大学英语六级考试真题(一)答案与详解Part Writing1、审题:本次作文仍旧是六级考试中常见的体裁:议论文【考频:】,所选取的话题为 it is unwise tojump to conclusions upon seeing or hearing something(只凭所见所闻就仓促下结论是不明智的)。考生应该着重阐释在信息 爆炸的当今社会,如果仅凭所见所闻就仓促得出结论,我们可能会深受其害。因此,我们在作结论时要去伪存真,三思而后行。2、列提纲:3.语言:对谚语的描述要用词准确,议论部分可使用从句等高分句型。Looking Before LeapingConfronted with various kinds of Information,modern people tend to trust whatever they have heard or read.However,it is unwise to jump to conclusions upon seeing or hearing something because the things we see or hearcannot all be correct.Living in the information age full of changes,we should discern clearly right from wrong.It is evident that some information is so misleading that we should not believe it.For instance several yearsago,due to the nuclear pollution in Japan,a host of Chinese,especially middle-aged people and seniors,rushedto buy salt,firmly believing salt could prevent radiation,which was very ridiculous.Also,although it is generallyaccepted that a picture is worth a thousand words,some pictures cannot be trusted in this day and age,forphotoshop has prevailed all around the world.In conclusion,it is imperative for us to hold correct attitudes towards the information we see or hear.Insteadof drawing conclusions in a hurry,we should raise our awareness of judging right from wrong and look beforeleap.I firmly believe a better future is awaiting us if we make each and every decision upon deep thinking.PartListening Comprehension1.听力原文:W:The students have been protesting against

两词,结合选项中的 burden,politically active,action,protests 可以推测,对话内容与大学生们.的抗议行动相关。而 C)又给出了一个信息,即本题应该与男士的观点态度相关,故听录音时,要对男士的话语多加注意。2014 年 6 月大学英语六级答案与详解(一)2【精析】C)。语义理解题【考频:】。女士向男士提到了学生们正在因为学费上涨而进行抗议,男士说他也听说 了这一事件,但他却不认为学生们的行为会起到什么好的效果。由此可知,男士对学生们抗议行为的效果有所怀疑。2.听力原文:W:Jay will turn 21 this week.Does he know the class is having a surprise party for him?M:No.He thinks we are giving a party for the retiring dean.Q:What do we learn from the conversation?2.A)Jay is organizing a party for the retiring dean.B)Jay is surprised to learn of the party for him.C)The dean will come to Jays birthday party.D)The class has kept the party a secret from Jay.【预测】四个选项中都出现了 Jay 和 party,可以推测对话一定涉及 Jay 这个人和聚会活动。结合语义可以知道,题目 的关键在于确定聚会究竟是由谁举办、聚会的目的以及聚会与 Jay 和 dean(系主任)有什么关系。【精析】D)。综合理解题【考频:】。女士说 Jay 就要 21 岁了,他到底知不知道班里正在为他的生日聚会做准备;男士说 Jay 并不知情,一直以为班里是为即将退休的系主任准备聚会。由此可知,班里都瞒着 Jay,没让他 知道聚会的真实目的。3.听 力 原 文:M:Hello.This is Carls Garage,We found Mr.Whites briefcase and wallet after he left his carhere this

his things,pick up 等与丢失物品相关的词语表达,再结 合语义可知对话的重点信息是什么东西丢了,丢到了什么地方。此外,四个选项均以 He 开头,可知对话的重 点是与男士或者是与对话外的某位男士相关的信息。【精析】C)。推理判断题【考频:】。对话中男士打电话告诉女士说,White 先生上午去修车的时候,把车留在了修车厂,而他把公文包和钱包也一并落在了那里;女士说她会转告 White 先生,当天下午就去取回来。由此可知,White 先生把汽车、公文包和钱包都留在了修车厂。4.听力原文:W:You know,some TV channels have been rerunning a lot of comedies from the 1960s.What doyou think of those old shows?M:Not much.But the new ones

directors.C)New comedies are exciting,just like those in the 1960s.D)TV comedies have not improved much since the 1960s.【预测】四个选项中,有三个选项出现了 comedies词,由此可以推测对话一定是围绕着喜剧节目展开。由 A)、B)中 的 directed,directors 和 C)、D)中的 1960s 可知,听对话时,重点有两处:一是导演与喜剧的关系,二是新的喜剧和二十世纪六十年代的喜剧进行比较的结果。【精析】D)。综合理解题【考频:】。对话中女士对男士说电视台在重播一些二十世纪六十年代的喜剧,问男士对这些喜剧的看法;男士说他并不怎么喜欢这些喜剧,同时,他也说,新出的喜剧,即使是著名导演执导,娱乐效果也不怎么样。由此可知,男士认为从二十世纪六十年代起,喜剧并没有什么发展。5.听力原文:M:How

vegetables词,结合选项中的 ctpoked,recipes,tasteless,boiling 可知,对话与应该如何烹饪蔬菜相关。由 B)和 D)开头的 The man should 可以推测,对话中男士所应该采取的行动是本题考查的关键。对话中应该是由一方来向另一方提出建议,因此,听录音的重点是女士所说的话。【精析】D)。弦外之音题【考频:】。男士向女士求助,说他的菜谱说烹饪时间为 10 分钟,不知道是否应该把这些蔬菜再多煮一会儿;女士说在她看来,这些蔬菜已经可以了,不用再煮了。由此可见,女士认为男士不应该再继续煮这些蔬菜了。6.听力原文:W:Tom,are you going to your parentshouse tonight?M:Yes.I promised to help them figure out their tax returns.The tax code is

动作与行为。【精析】A)。事实细节题【考频:】。对话中女士问男士他是不是要去父母家,男士说是的,他答应父母帮他们 整理纳税申报单,免税代码对于他的父母来说太难懂了。由此可知,男士会帮助父母整理纳税申报单。7.听力原文:W:I was surprised when I heard youd finished your research project a whole month

可知,对话应该会涉及研究或学业。综合判断,D)“女士对他来说仍然是一个谜”与其他选项的主题思想差距较远,基本可以提前排除。【精析】A)。推理判断题【考频:】。对话中女士说听说男士提前一个月就完成了项目,她十分吃惊;而男士说他自己也没弄明白怎么就能提前这么长时间完成项目。由此可知,男士自己也没想到能这么快完成工作。8.听力原文:W:I was hoping we could be in the

的活动。答案详解:9.B)。事实细节题【考频:】:】。对话中男士一开头就说泰国丝绸的色彩让他惊叹,并说从没有见过这样的色彩组合,还提出要看一下这些新色彩组合的样品。由此可知,是泰国丝绸新的色彩组合让男士着迷。10.C)。细节辨认题【考频:】:】。对话中男士说他也不确定究竟在找些什么,但可以确定的是,他不喜欢在景点出售的东西。女士由此猜测男士应该是喜欢去乡村转一转,男士表示同意。女士猜测男士应该对尚未商业化的手工艺品更感兴趣,男士则强调说对当地人自己使用的东西很感兴趣,这与选项中的“地方手工艺品”意思一致。11.B)。细节推断题【考频:】。】。对话中女士对男士说她可以为他安排一次去乡村的行程,可以让男士深人泰国,只要发现他感兴趣的东西,随时都可以停下来观看。由此可知,女士为男士安排的是乡村之行。Conversation
