3、e the world a better place, such disruption is a natural part of rising _38_. Although innovation kills some jobs, it creates new and better ones, as a more _39_ society becomes richer and its wealthier inhabitants demand more goods and services.

7、 D eventually Passage Two Questions 61-65 are based on the following passage. Some of the worlds most significant problems never hit headlines.One example comes from agriculture. Food riots and hunger make news. But the trend lying behind these matters is rarely talked about. This is the decline in
8、the growth in yields of some of the worlds major crops.A new study by the University of Minnesota and McGill University in Montreal looks at where, and how far, this decline is occurring. The authors take a vast number of data points for the four most important crops: rice, wheat corn and soybeans(大
9、豆). They find that on between 24% and 39% of all harvested areas, the improvement in yields that tood place before the 1980s slowed down in the 1990s and 2021s. There are two worrying features of the slowdown. One is that it has been particularly sharp in the worlds most populous(人口多的) countries, In
10、dia and China. Their ability to feed themselves has been an important source of relative stability both within the countries and on world food markets. That self-sufficiency cannot be taken for granted if yields continue to slow down or reverse. Second, yield growth has been lower in wheat and rice
11、than in corn and soyabeans. This is problematic because wheat and rice are more important as foods, accounting for around half of all calories consumed. Corn and soyabeans are more important as feed grains. The authors note that “we have preferentially focused our crop improvement efforts on feeding
12、 animals and cars rather than on crops that feed people and are the basis of food security in much of the world.” The report qualifies the more optimistic findings of another new paper which suggests that the world will not have to dig up a lot more land for farming in order to feed 9 billion people
13、 in 2050, as the Food and Agriculture Organisation has argued. Instead, it says, thanks to slowing population growth, land currently ploughted up for crops might be able to revert(回返)to forest or wilderness. This could happen. The trouble is that the forecast assumes continued improvements in yields
14、 which may not actually happen. 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。 61.What does the author try to draw attention to? A)Food riots and hunger in the world. C)The decline of the grain yield growth. B)News headlines in the leading media. D)The food supply in populous countries. 62.Why does the author mention India an
15、d China in particular? A)Their self-sufficiency is vital to the stability of world food markets. B)Their food yields have begun to decrease sharply in recent years. C)Their big populations are causing worldwide concerns. D)Their food self-sufficiency has been taken for granted. 63.What does the new
16、study by the two universities say about recent crop improvement efforts? A)They fail to produce the same remarkable results as before the 1980s. B)They contribute a lot to the improvement of human food production. C)They play a major role in guaranteeing the food security of the world. D)They focus
17、more on the increase of animal feed than human food grains. 64.What does the Food and Agriculture Organisation say about world food production in the coming decades? A)The growing population will greatly increase the pressure on world food supplies. B)The optimistic prediction about food production
18、should be viewed with caution. C)The slowdown of the growth in yields of major food crops will be reversed. D)The world will be able to feed its population without increasing farmland. 65.How does the author view the argument of the Food and Agriculture Organisation? A)It is built on the findings of
19、 a new study. B)It is based on a doubtful assumption. C)It is backed by strong evidence. D)It is open to further discussion. 参考答案: 61-65 CADDB 固定搭配 36.In the Industrial Revolution, hand weavers were _aside by the mechanical loom. 这个句子考查的就是词组的固定搭配了,这句话的含义是:在工业革命中,手织布工被纺织机_.在后面这句话中,hand weavers是主语,wer
20、e _aside是谓语动词,而且是表示被动的。所以填在横线处的词,既要是一个表示被动的词,又要和aside构成词组,且符合句子的含义。Swept是sweep的过去式,sweep aside表示“把.移到一边”的含义。这句话讲的是工业革命中,机器生产代替工场手工业,把手织布工取代,放到一边的事情,所以swept是正确选项。 上下文语境 37.Over the past years, the digital revolution has _ many of the mid-skilled jobs that supported 20th-century middle class life.Typi
21、st, ticket agents, bank tellers and many production-line jobs have been dispensed with, just as the weavers were. 这一段话主要讲述了数字化革命代替了许多生产线上工人的工作。从这个语境可以看出,前面的一句话和后面是承接的关系,因为并无转折。在后面一句话中谈到,打字员、订票员和其他的生产线上的工人,都和手织布工一样被取代了。由于两句话之间是承接、并列的关系,那么前面肯定也是说数字化革命取代了一些人的工作。所以,此处空格处缺的是一个动词,和has一起构成谓语动词,且表示“取代”的含义,在
22、所有的已知词汇中,只有displaced符合条件。 从上面的分析我们可以看出,备考大学英语六级不仅仅是背词汇那么简单,在做题的时候除了必要的词汇之外,我们还要有扎实的语法基本功,同时要学会融会贯通,灵活运用上下文的各种线索来帮助解题。只要平时一步一个脚印的稳扎稳打,文都英语老师相信,你们一定可以获得这场战争的胜利! 2021年6月大学英语6级真题及答案三套全 2021年6月大学英语六级考试真题1 Part II Listening Comprehension (30 minutes) Section A 1.

39、ould try hard to save his life. Section C When most people think of the word “education”, they think of a pupil as a sort of animate sausage casing. Into this empty casting, the teachers (26) stuff “education.” But genuine education, as Socrates knew more than two thousand years ago, is not (27) the
40、 stuffing of information into a person, but rather eliciting knowledge from him; it is the (28) of what is in the mind. “The most important part of education,” once wrote William Ernest Hocking, the (29) Harvard philosopher, “is this instruction of a man in what he has inside of him.” And, as Edith
41、Hamilton has reminded us, Socrates never said, “I know, learn from me。” He said, rather, “Look into your own selves and find the (30) of the truth that God has put into every heart and that only you can kindle (点燃)to a (31) .” In a dialogue, Socrates takes an ignorant slave boy, without a day of (32
42、) , and proves to the amazed observers that the boy really “knows” geometry一because the principles of geometry are already in his mind, waiting to be called out. So many of the discussions and (33) about the content of education are useless and inconclusive because they (34) what should “go into” th
43、e student rather than with what should be taken out, and how this can best be done. The college student who once said to me, after a lecture, “I spend so much time studying that I dont have a chance to learn anything,” was clearly expressing his (35) with the sausage casing view of education.
