cnhaveanopenmindtowardcapabilityboosting本文有待提高之处:1.
文章结构上,能看得出该同学试图采用议论文的"三段式"(提出问题、分析问题、解决问题).
逻辑严谨,论证严密;句式表达灵活,用语较为地道.
2.
微观语言点方面,有个主谓一致的方面的错误(diplomaandcertificatesstillweighsheavily);有些语句稍显啰嗦,比quitepossibly,youwouldgettheanswerthat大可简化成you'dmostlikelybetoldthat更好,意思没有丝毫减损,表达力反而增强许多;另外某些用语多重复,比如job多次出现;为了避免此类现象,文中的theenormouspressureoffindingajob不妨改为theenormouspressureofgettingemployed.
从整体看,本篇文章不错,值得参考借鉴,不过用于方面还有待提高.

cn本次六级作文探讨的是考生比较熟悉的话题——高校考证书热;本次试题延续了以往的考试风格,关注点仍然放在与学生息息相关的话题上;从选题角度来说,考生还是比较好把握的.
需要注意的是由于第二部分可能需要列出多点原因,考生在该部分需要注意论述的条理性;此外,在保证句法通顺的前提下,尽可能做到表达的多样化.
首先,在考生拿到题目的时候,应该先认真审题,心里大致对接下来文章的安排有一个底.
提起证书热的话,很多考生都会联想到就业压力,学校给予的压力以及学生自身的需求;因此,全文可做如下安排;第一段,考生可以整体阐述一下该话题,陈述下目前存在的考证热现象;第二段,考生可以对考证热背后存在的各种各样的目的进行拓展;比如说由于日益严重的就业压力,以及有的学校时不时给学生灌输的压力;或者是学生自身从身边感受到的一些压力,都可能导致考证热的产生.
第三段要求考生对于该现象给出自己的理解,考生应在这里持一种客观的态度.
因为考证本身并不是一种错误,但是考生应当注意从题目"考证热"出发,重点放在"热"字上,对这一现象做出最理性的评述.
综合来讲,本篇文章观点明确,思路清晰;在第二段给出的例证具有代表性;此外,文章中有用到不少的亮点词汇;唯一比较遗憾的是,由于时间和篇幅的限制,论证的展开还未完全挖掘出来,但在如此有限的条件下,可以称得上佳作了.

cn文章点评:1.
逻辑结构上,本文大体也是按照"提出问题(考证热的现象)""分析问题(背后的动力)"和"解决问题(个人的观点)"的结构展开.
2.
本文的亮点非常多,用语非常地道,用英语思维催动出来的英语文章,才是真正的极品.
相比用中式思维催动出来的英语文章,这篇文章是很美味的,强烈建议大家背诵下来.

大家记得《天龙八部》吗鸠摩智用小无相功催动出的招式是敌不过藏经阁里的扫地和尚的.
总之,我们大可不必刻意使用难词难句,其实表意明确,用语地道的文章,就肯定可以拿到高分.
PartIIReadingComprehension(SkimmingandScanning)1.
B.
Thelowgraduationratesofminoritystudents解析:全文讲的是少数民族学生的毕业率变低的问题,这也是作者对于美国高等教育所担心的一个问题,关键词在lowgraduationrate,其他的proportion,conflict,和academicperformance都没有涉及,故选B.
2.
D.
itsincreasedenrollmentofminoritystudents解析:答案在整篇文章第一句话,BowdoinCollege的校长引以为豪的是扩招了很多少数民族学生.
而不是学校排名,文化遗产继承,C选项高毕业率与原文不符,故选D.
3.
B.
Therisinggenerationwillbelesswelleducatedthanthepreviousone.
解析:答案定位在第四段.
原文内容是:,thereistheriskthattherisinggenerationwillbelesswelleducatedthanthepreviousone.
而D选项说美国将会失去其在高等教育方面的竞争优势,这一点原味并未提及,原文只是说美国的低毕业率问题.
4.
C.

only15%ofAfrican-Americansdidsoaswell.
5.
B.

Hereisthereceipt.
W:I'msorry,sir.
Butwe'realittlebehind.
CouldyoucomebackinafewminutesQ:Whatdoesthewomanmean答案:C.
Shehasnotgottheman'scopiesready.
解析:本题考的是文化场景,出现了copy等词,还是比较基础的.
原文中男生想出示收据来拿复印材料,然后女生说"we'realittlebehind.
"(我们动作稍落后)意思就是还没复印好.
12.

M:Well,that'snotabigdeal.
Butyoumightatleastphoneifyouknowyou'regoingtokeepsomeonewaiting.
Q:Whatdowelearnaboutthewomanfromtheconversation答案:B.
Shewaslatefortheappointment.
解析:生活类场景题.
注意对"beputoutwithsb"(对生气)的理解;文中女生首先对自己的迟到表示歉意并解释原因;男生说不是大问题,但是你至少得打个电话给我.
因此,我们知道女生迟到了.
13.
W:Markisthebestcandidateforchairmanofthestudentunion,isn'theM:Well,thatguywon'tbeabletowintheelectionunlesshegetssomemajorityvotefromwomenstudents.

Q:Whatdoesthemanmean答案:C.
Itwon'tbeeasyforMarktowintheelection.
www.
qsc.
zju.
edu.
cn解析:对话属于学习类场景,出现了majority,studentunion,和candidate等相关词汇.
考点在于对话中的肯定与否定类,即前面一个人提出观点,后面一个人采取'取非'的态度;文中第一人说Mark是学生会主席的不二人选,而第二人则说除非Mark获得了大多数女生的选票,否则是赢不了的,因此还不能确定.
14.
M:Sorrytohavekeptyouwaiting,Madam.
I'velocatedyourluggage.
ItwasleftbehindinParisandwon'tarriveuntillaterthisevening.
W:Oh,Ican'tbelievethis.
Haveitdelivertomyhotelthen,Iguess.
Q:Whathappenedtothewoman'sluggage答案:A.
Itfailedtoarriveatitsdestinationintime.
解析:考短对话常考场景,旅游场景,其中hotel,luggage等单词可帮助学生直接定位;第一个人(估计是工作人员)对旅客道歉说行李被落在巴黎了,要到深夜才能送到.
旅客说这让让她难以置信,然后要求就把行李送到宾馆.
由此可知,女士的行李还没有到达目的地.

15.
W:Idon'tthinkwehaveenoughinformationforourpresentation,butwehavetogiveittomorrow.
Theredoesn'tseemtobemuchwecandoaboutit.
M:Yeah,atthispointwe'llhavetomakedowithwhatwe'vegot.
Q:Whatdoesthemansuggesttheydo答案:A.
Justmakeuseofwhateverinformationisavailable.
解析:关键词presentation,为校园场景.
考点为第二人建议题,"atthispoint,we'llhavetodo"明确表示建议,将建议后的内容听出来就可以了.
这里"we'llhavetomakedowithwhatwe'vegot.
"意思是"我们要善加利用手上已有的东西".
16.
M:Iamtakingthisgreatcourse-PsychologyofLanguage,it'sreallyinteresting.
Sinceyouareapsychologymajor,youshouldsignupforit.
W:ActuallyItriedtodothat,buttheytoldmeIhavetotakelanguagestudiesfirst.
Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation答案:D.
Thewomanisn'tqualifiedtotakethecoursethemanmentioned.
解析:关键词course,为校园场景.
16题为典型的第二人but转折后出考题,音频中出现的psychology其实不需要知道意思,前面已经有course来解释了.
这和六级一贯的难词前后有对其的解释的原则一致,并且psychology是六级学生应该掌握的词汇.
文中男生向女生推荐语言心理学这门课,女生说她有尝试报名,但是在参加课程前得先进行语言学习,因此推出,女生还没有资格参加该课程.
17.
W:CanyoubelievethewayLarrywastalkingtohisroommateNowondertheydon'tgetalong.
M:Well,maybeLarrywasjustreactingtosomethinghisroommatesaid.
Therearetwosidestoeverystoryyouknow.
Q:WhatdoesthemanimplyaboutLarryandhisroommate答案:A.
Theyarebothtoblame.
解析:17题为租房与住房类,出现了诸如roommate,getalong等词汇.
并且第二人用maybewww.
qsc.
zju.
edu.
cn给出建议,作为考点.
女生首先提到Larry对室友的说话态度不好;然后男生提到有可能他的室友讲了些什么,Larry才会有如此反应.
每件事都是有两面性的.
因此双方可能都有责任.
18.
M:Wedon'thavetheresourcestostopthosepeoplefrombuyingusoutunlessamiraclehappens.
Thismaybetheendofus.
W:Istillhavehopewecangethelpfromthebank.
Afterallwedon'tneedthatmuchmoney.
Q:Whatdowelearnaboutthespeakersfromtheconversation答案:A.
Theyareindesperateneedoffinancialassistance.
解析:18题为商务话题,关键词resources,考题类型为观点态度类,答案出现在第二人woman回答处,出现不绝对模凌两可的词汇给出观点态度,此为本题考点.
第一人话中讲到"buysb.
out"表示收购;对于这个词不认知问题不大,后面给出了提示,表明发生了问题.

而第二人给出了建议.
具体而言,第一人说情况很不乐观,第二人说还有希望,能向银行求助.
由此可知,他们的经济状况不佳,急需帮助.

19.
C)Wederivesomehumoroussatisfactionfromtheirmisfortune.
解析:从Butofcoursethereisalsoakindofhumoroussatisfactioninseeingsomebodyself-importantmakingafoolofthemselves.
一句中,可知,我们会嘲笑他人的不幸,是因为我们可以从中得到一种幽默的满足,derivefrom意为得到,取得,makeafoolof意为愚弄,出洋相,所以正确答案是C20.
C)Theydon'tknowhowtocopewiththesituation解析:人们之所以会嘲笑胖子或身体有残缺的人,是因为人们不知该如何处理那样的情况,文中有句有真相"Wedon'tknowhowtocopewiththesituation",所以正确答案是C21.
A)Theythemselveswouldliketodoitbutdon'tdareto.
解析:custardpie意为"牛奶饼",题目问的是,为什么人们看到有人往老板脸上扔牛奶饼,会觉得很有趣对话中也几乎是原封不动地给出了答案,那是因为我们也想做却不敢做.

wouldliketodo是lovetodo的同义替换词,daretodo又是havecouragetodo的同义替换词.
22.
C)Torelieveherfeelings.
解析:relievefeelings意为缓和情绪,对话中提到,Shesaiditrelievedherfeelings.
这位男生的阿姨自己亲口表示,当她被激怒时,会朝别人扔茶杯,来缓和自己的情绪,而不是如选项A所说,toirritatethem,激怒别人.
所以正确答案是C这篇对话探讨的是心理问题,有些小抽象.
但是大家千万不要被这阵势吓到了,只要事先阅读过一遍题目,听对话时定位准确,找到关键词,很多问题便迎刃而解啦.
四个问题都是按照文章的顺序提问的,第一个和最后一个问题如大家所料,在对话的开头和结尾部分,所以开头和结尾仍是要严防死守之处.
除此以外,同义替换词依然是重点考察项目,如wouldliketodo,daretodo.
这篇长对话虽然很多答案能从对话中可以直接找到相对应的原句,但是在做听力时,还是要仔细聆听,定位关键句,否则漏掉一句,做起题目来可能就会比较吃力了.

Questions23-25arebasedontheconversationyouhavejustheard23.
D)BringingahandgunintoHongKong解析:suspect的意思是怀疑,题目问,SanjayKumar被怀疑什么对话的开头,女警察便说到,"Nowitseemsthatahandgunwasfoundinyourluggage",也就是说在SanjayKumar的包里发现了一把手枪,由此可得出选项D24.
D)HeissuspectedofhavingslippedsomethingintoKumar'sbag解析:从对话中,我们了解到,SanjayKumar并没有携带枪支,而是坐在他身边的AlfredFoster栽赃嫁祸,趁SanjayKumar睡着时,将手枪放进他的包里,slip有暗中塞入的意思,对应选项D25.
B)FindAlfredFoster.
解析:对话的最后一句已给出了答案,"Pleasefindhim,Madam.
"SanjayKumar请求警察能够找到AlfredFoster这是一篇审讯对话,在最近三年的六级长对话听力中,还没有涉及,但是审讯对话并不难,我们可以从两人的语气,称呼中得出,如SanjayKumar称那位女士为madam,女士的口气也比较硬,如用了"Doyouadmitthat,tellme"等语句.
这篇长对话既考察了对大意的理解,也考察了对细节的把握,其中24题,更像是一道推理题,对话中并没有明确指出AlfredFoster把手枪塞入了SanjayKumar的包内,但我们可以从SanjayKumar的回答中推理出相应的结论,23、25题对细节的考察在对话中可以直接找到出处,总的来说,第二篇www.

文章开篇就介绍总的社会背景是各种不景气前提下,外出旅游成为人们的选择之一,紧接着以一个例子来证明.
然后旅行社相关的权威人物的话语中更是证明目前旅游业正风头正劲.

Accordingtothespeaker,whyaresomepeoplewillingtospendtheirmoneyontravelthesedays答案:B)Theythinktravelgivesthemtheirmoney'sworth.
解析:推断题.
本题问如今一些人愿意把钱花在旅游上的原因.
第一题通常从听力开头去定位答案.
文章第一句"Everyoneislookingforagoodinvestment",紧接着说明但如今股票市场,货币投资和公司都不太景气(crashing),一些人就发现旅行不失为一个不错的"投资",(takingthetripofalifetimeisactuallyasmartmove)这钱花得也值.
27.
WhatisTselanaTravelplanningtodo,accordingtoitsfounder答案:D)Launchanewprogramofadventuretrips.
解析:细节题.
看到TselanaTravel直接锁定目标,且听力中也给出了"planningtointroduce.
.
.
"排除其他选秀.
旅游业兴盛起来,那么相应的旅行社等必然会采取措施,争取吸引客户获得经济利益.
所以听的时候我们要格外注意,要对旅行社的行为要注意听.
p28.
AccordingtoAshleyToft,managingdirectorofExplore,whatischangingnowwithregardtotravels答案:B)Thewaypeopletravel.
解析:细节题.
关键词"AshleyToft"和"changing",考生容易选C选项,因为这个AshleyToft也提到了last-minutebookings数字的增长.
但是一定要把文章听完,最后给出了"Travelhasbecomeanecessity.
It'sjusthowwetravelthatischanging.
"2个选项一对比,B选项更为合适.
Thewaypeopletravel和howwetravel用到了同义替换.
也再次说明,听力首尾都是听力常考的重点区域,不可掉以轻心.

篇章类型及提要:社会现象,两性关系听力点睛:本文介绍作者对男女关系的老套传统观念持质疑态度,并举例证明其观点.
本文难词不多,2个例子也以对话为主,所以难度适中.
文章第一句"Somehowtheoldmaleandfemalestereotypesnolongerfit.
"非常直白的表明了作者的观点.
文章难度不大的,题目往往会比较讨巧,所以一定不能放松警惕.
题目中的以推理为主的题目会相对比较多.
精剖细析:29.
Whatisthespeakermainlytalkingabout答案:B)Thechangingrolesplayedbymenandwomen.
解析:主旨题.
主要考察考生对主旨的理解.
注意这里A选项容易让人混淆.
首句中的oldstereotypes会误导考生去选A.
但A选项并不完整.
文章不是讲老套传统的男女观念.
而是对此的一个质疑,传统男女的角色正在不断改变.
这也是六级做题的一个技巧.
选项中出现和文章有关的重点单词,并不一定就是答案.
选项还是都得仔细阅读.

Whatmightwomendoatofficemeetingsnowadaysaccordingtothespeaker答案:A)Offermorecreativeandpracticalideasthanmen.
解析:细节题.
此题不难,关键词"officemeetings',文章中直接给出了"theymightspeakupmoreoften,expressstrongopinionsandcomeupwithmorecreativeandpracticalideasthantheirmalecolleagues.
"排除其他选项.

cn答案:C)Toshowthatwomenarecapableofdoingwhatmendo.
解析:推断题.
题目问主人公为什么要自己来修整草坪.
文章最后是以一段对话体现.
此题需要简单推理.
首先主人公很明确的表示自己认为传统男女的关系及角色扮演正在不断改变,女性可以做好传统观念里男人应该做的事.
自己女儿就是一个很好的例子,是焊接工(welder),而女儿男友则是律师事务所的前台接待.
那么必然推断出作者本身自己的行为举止也是贯彻自己的这一想法.
推断选C,排除其他选项.

难词不多,难度适中,难词主要是对犯罪类词汇的,如violentcrimes,crimesagainstproperty,rape,robbery等,考生平时阅读及词汇学习一定要各种类型都涉及一点,掌握一些基本的专业词汇.
其次这类从一个人的角度去看的文章,既要注意文中主人公的主观态度,也要关注客观事实.
题目很可能把2者混淆起来考查考生.

cn精剖细析:32.
WhatisFlorenceHayes'mainresponsibilityasajournalist答案:B)ReportingcriminaloffensesinGreenville.
解析:问女主人公作为记者的主要工作职责.
题目比较简单.
文章开头就给出"SpecificallyshecoverscrimeintheGreenVillearea.
"且后面文章都是介绍女主人公报道的也都是镇上发生的犯罪行为.
A和C选项范围大了,D选项范围有小了.
只有B选项正确.
33.
WhatdoesthespeakersayaboutsecurityinGreenville答案:D)Ithasfewerviolentcrimesthanbigcities.
解析:细节题.
4个选项乍看都是和小镇治安有关.
需要一个一个去排除.
A选项文章并没有给出小镇以前和现在的治安状况对比,排除.
B选项,文章的确提到了rapes,但是并没有提及在downtownareas的情况,且Greenville是个镇.
C选项assaults常发生在nearthebarsdowntown不是schoolcampuses.
如果做题时没做好笔记,关注好细节,很容易选错.
34.
WhatdowelearnaboutcrimesagainstpropertyintheGreenVillearea答案:A)Thereareawiderangeofcases.
解析:细节题.
关键词是"crimesagainstproperty",最后部分的听力中有"CrimesagainstpropertymakeupmostofMissHeyes'reporting.
"说明在Florence负责的犯罪行为中,和财产有关的占了大部分(makeup组成).
说明这种犯罪率比较高.
A选项适合.
C选项乍看像是答案,但文中并给出该类案件正在不断升级.
排除.
35.
WhatwouldFlorenceHayesprefertodo答案:A)Writeaboutsomethingpleasant.
解析:此题听到prefer就知道答案应所锁定于听力最后.
听力已经很明显给出"Shewouldprefertostart.
.
.
"C和D没有提到.
B选项,文中的确提到了localnewsorpolitics,但这只是她可能想要做的事情的举例而已,并不是非常明确就一定要去做.
"omethingmoreinterestingandlessunpleasant"表明应该选A.

36-46解析:本次的复合式听写讲的是决策的问题.
现代人面临着越来越多的决策,但是太多的选择会给人带来很多负作用.
BarrySchwartz对大学毕业生的决策做了观察实验,把学生分为两类决策者:满足者和最大化者.
研究发现决策最大化者尽管普遍比满足者获得薪水高,但是却并不对他们的决策感到开心.
这次的复合式听写稍微有些难度.
需要注意的是需要加s的词flavors和strategies,在填写单词的时候要注意单复数.
另外还有2个要填过去式或过去分词.
此外,behavior的英式和美式拼写都可以.
这次写的三句句子中第一句后半句比较简单,除了注意单词exhausting不要写成exhausted之外,后一句很快就可以写出来.
第二句whythesepeoplefeellesssatisfiedisthataworldofpossibilitiesmightalsoaworldoflessopportunities这句比较长,但是结构比较简单,单词也不难,考生要注意.
第三句分为两部分,后半部分一个定语从句.
前半句重点搭配为beawareof,后半句的turndown和pursue都是考生应掌握的词汇.

beproposedandreviewed51.
confrontations47-51解析:点评:本篇文章主要讲的是说no的技巧;如何向你的上司说no如何对你的同事说no47题问的是"我们应当找出,而不是直接对你的老板说no";解此题,我们可以定位到文章的第三段Thefirstruleofsayingnotothebossisdon'tsayno.
Sheprobablyhassomethinginmindwhenshemakessuggestions,andit'suptoyoutofindoutwhat.
这句话说的是"老板在做建议的时候通常是她的脑子里已经有了一些想法了,而你应该做的就是找出这些想法.
"所以应该填"whatisinhermind.
"48题明确指出提问的是作者的第二条警告;回到原文Thesecondruleisdon'traisethestakesbychallengingherauthority.
Thatissueisalreadydecided.
"我们不应该冒险挑战老板的权威".
49题讲的是"对于你老板的建议,你应该以及给她一个可供选择的解决方案";回到原文第三段Thethirdruleistobereadytociteoptionsandconsequences.
Theboss'ssuggestionsmightbeappropriate,buttherearealwaysconsequences.
后面作者列举了一些例子,都是关于consequences的解释;所以这里应当填possibleconsequences.
50题讲的是"为了保证公平性,有必要对_______的故事设立一个系统";回答本题,我们可以回到原文倒数第二段First,youneedasystemforhowstoriesareproposedandreviewed.
所以应填入beproposedandreviewed.
51题是针对文章的最后一段提问;Byanticipating"whatif"situationsbeforetheyhappen,youcanreachunderstandingthatwillhelpeaseyououtofconfrontations.
本句中easeoutof和题目中的avoid异曲同工,所以,在这里填入confrontations即可.
总体来说,本篇文章难度适中,所有问题基本都可以从原文中找到答案;特别需要注意的是有个别地方需要考生注意一下格式的对应,比如说第50题的beproposedandreviewed.

www.
qsc.
zju.
edu.
cn关键词:yet,boost定位:题干中thefirstparagraph提示答案定位在第一段.
根据关键词可以进一步定位.
解析:第一段第二句"TheAmericanpublicoverwhelminglythinksthey'rebad.
"说明美国大众认为移民是不好的.
而后面紧接着的第三句话"Yettheconsensusamongmosteconomistsisthatprovidesasmallnetboost"说明经济学家认为移民是有促进作用的.
这句话中的Yet和boost,就是与前一句话作了对比.
说明了在关于移民影响的问题上,美国大众和经济学家所持的观点是不同的.
选项D"thinkdifferently"对应原文意思,因此选择选项D.
53.
InwhatwaydoestheauthorthinkordinaryAmericansbenefitfromimmigration答案:B.
Theycangetconsumergoodsatlowerprices.
关键词:profit,lowerprices定位:第三段第三句.
解析:原文第三段第三句"theseproducers'savingsprobablytranslateintolowerpricesatthegrocerystore"说明移民劳动力节约了制造成本,使得我们在小店里买的东西价格更低,这与选项B中的"goodsatlowerprices"对应,因此选择B.
54.
Whydonativelow-skilledworkerssuffermostfromillegalimmigration答案:C.
Theyhaveahardertimegettingajobwithdecentpay.
关键词:low-skilled,reducethewages定位:第三段的最一句话.
解析:原文第三段最后一句话"immigrationreducedthewagesoftheAmericanhigh-schooldrop-outs"中"high-schooldrop-outs"高中辍学的人即选项C中"low-skilledworkers",而选项C中的"decentpay"与原文中"reducethewages"对应说明了移民会导致低技能水平的当地人更难找到一份体面工资的工作了.
因此,C的意思与原文最符合,此处选择C.
55.
Whatisthechiefconcernofnativehigh-skilled,better-educatedemployeesabouttheinflowofimmigrants答案:D.
Itmayplaceagreatstrainonthestatebudget.
关键词:high-skilled,fiscalburden定位:第四段第二句解析:第四段第一句提到"whatworriedthemmostwasthefiscalburden"说明当地的高技能人才最担心的是移民带来的财政负担.
选项A"改变社会结构",选项B"威胁了他们的经济地位",选线C"导致社会不稳定,这三个选项与国家财政无关.
而选项D"国家预算"属于财政方面,与原文意思符合,所以此处选择D.
56.
Whatistheironyaboutthedebateoverimmigration答案:C.

根据关键词irony能够提示答案就在本www.

cn段中.
第五段的第一句点明了本段的主要意思:移民对于美国的真正影响很小.
后面"itendsupbeinganetpositive,butasmallone.
"是作者暗示人们对于移民影响的小题大做.
而选项C中"makeabigfussabout"大惊小怪(答题)与原文意思相同,因此此处选择C.

57.
Whatcharacterisesthebusinessschoolstudentpopulationoftoday答案:A.
Greaterdiversity.
关键词:characterises、today定位:第一、二段解析:第一段是对57题题干的综合阐述,在第三行开头的关键词"today"之后,我们看到"morewomen""awiderangeofethnicgroups"等字样,即可确定本题的答案是A.
此外,在第二段,我们同样可以发现,第二段的第二行"thisapparentdiversity"就直接将选项A点出来了.
58.
Whatistheauthor'sconcernaboutcurrentbusinessschooleducation答案:B.
Itwillproducebusinessleadersofauniformstyle.
关键词:concern、currentbusinessschooleducation定位:第二段的最后两行解析:在第二段的最后两行,我们看到"whichriskcreatingasetofclones",选项B中"uniformstyle"就是原文中"clone"的同义替换,正确答案就是B.
59.
WhataspectofdiversitydoesValerieGauthierthinkismostimportant答案:C.
Attitudeandapproachtobusiness.
关键词:ValerieGauthier、mostimportant定位:第三段的最后两行解析:这道题的题干中有人名,还有最高级"most",定位起来就非常容易了.
在第三段的最后两行,我们可以很容易地找到答案"alsocontainsdiversityofattitudeandapproach",所以我们的正确选项是C.
60.
WhatapplicantsdoestheauthorthinkMBAprogrammersshouldconsiderrecruiting答案:C.
Applicantsfromoutsidethetraditionalsectors.
关键词:MBAprogrammers、recruiting定位:第四段解析:这道题的题干中,根据关键词MBA我们定位到第三段的中间部分,但是根据前面59题的做题过程,我们大致了解到,第三段并没有讲跟recruit(招聘)相关的内容,于是我们看到第四段,第四段的第一行"selectingcandidates"以及第二行"seekingindividuals"都是题干中"recruiting"的同义替换,于是我们确定答案就在第四段,通过对第四段的阅读,我们可以很容易的得出正确的选项就是C.

co.
uk/money/2010/may/15/bristol-university-volunteering-award这里再次验证了平时阅读外刊的重要性,沪江部落小组里就有一些外刊的学习贴,大家平时可以参考一下:如《BBC新闻听写》《AP一分钟时事精华》《今日TOPIC》《六级出题来源揭秘》文章第一句,同样没有挖空,旨在帮助学生快速进入语境.
文章主旨句:课外实践是大学生专业课程的重要补充.
62.
需要通篇理解才能给出答案.
www.
qsc.
zju.
edu.
cn63.
上一句的关键词是usually,讲述的是"通常的情况",与"现在的情况"形成对比.
因此63选but.
64.
这里需要一个和to搭配的动词,表达"投入"之意,因此只有devote符合.
65.
全文都在讲述学生找工作,这里的"人才市场"竞争激烈,才符合题意,因此competitive符合.
66.
本句里有个alongside,相当于beside,这里指课外实践以外的方面,当然就是academic67.
这里需要一个副词修饰动词appreciate,根据but前后的逻辑,我们应该选择necessarily,表示"必然;必定":Bigmenaren'tnecessarilystrongmen.
高大的人不一定强壮.
68.
根据全文的大意,这里的appreciate要接"课外实践"作宾语.
69.
根据下文的描述,我们可以知道"现在的雇主要比原先苛刻很多",所以这里需要填上demanding70.
根据本段最后一句,Now后面的描述,我们知道,原先并不是这样,原先只注重应聘者的潜力,其实"sawitaspartoftheirjobtoextractthevalueofanapplicant'sskills"也是一个佐证.
71.
这里需要一个和to搭配的形容词,根据倒数第二段的最后一句,我们很好判断出答案选择relevant.
72.
本空考察动词短语,signupfor表示"登记报名",这里是符合题意的.
73.
根据文章第一句,这里很好判断,应该是voluntary,表示义工.
74.
这里是几个动作的顺承,应该用and.
75.
B)Exceptional这里需要形容词修饰efforts.
exceptional,特别的,卓越的.
2008年北京奥运会闭幕式上,奥委会主席罗格就用了exceptional这个词来形容这场盛世.
什么样的成绩可以得奖呢当然是优秀的成绩.
occasional,偶然的;informative,内容充实的;relative,相关的.
76.
A)perform这里句子缺少谓语动词.
perform,表现.
学生、员工的"表现",通常用perform/performance这个词.
circulate,循环;convey,传达;formulate,制定、用公式表示.
在运动场上表现优秀的学生可以获得体育相关的奖项.
77.
C)formally这里需要副词修饰动词organised.
可以从Goodman后面举的例子上来判断,学生的经验不需要非要正式.
roughly,粗略地;randomly,随机地;fortunately,幸运的.
注意句子中的否定成分.

A)Forinstance下面开始举例,故选择此项.
Incontrast,相反;Inessence,本质上;Ofcourse,当然.
79.
A)demonstrated词义辨析题.
这里需要动词,与skills联系.
demonstrate,展示;operate,操作;determine,决定;involve,卷入、包括.
学生通过实践经验,展现自己的谈判技巧.
