赵文通老师做客

主持人：大家好，英语六级考试已经结束，我们现在就英语试题的答案做解析，我们请到了赵文通老师。

赵文通：大家好。

主持人：有请赵老师做文题的解析和介绍。

赵文通：今天上午我在监考英语四级考试，监考完做了访谈，我们发现今年题型有较大的变化，变化在于第一题，我发现大学英语四级考试发生变化以后，我就可以肯定，下午大学英语六级考试试题肯定会发生变化。英语作文考试试题包括问题解决型作文，从题材来说关于一些真题包括人的品格和品质。大学英语四级考试中 中考过诚实是非常重要的话题，诚实为什么重要?从A、B、C几方面进行论述，三方面是一个提纲，列出三个提纲，我们今年发现考试试题没有列出提纲，而是给出了背景。名言在我锯木头之前会把斧头磨几个小时，根据这句话写一篇文章成功之路，我们要首先了解前面背景给我们交待了什么信息，一个人成功需要什么?就从这几方面来说。从这个背景中可以发现，做任何事情，做充分的准备特别重要，英文表达应当是make full preparations，这是第一方面。

第二方面，我们在人的品质上，磨斧子磨四个小时，说明这个人是非常勤奋的，勤奋可以用hard-working来表示。还可以用哪个单词呢?用diligent来表示，如果我们要表达一个人是勤勉的或者是勤奋的，我们可以用这个单词来表示，这是问题第二方面。

1 关于四、六级考试2013年改革的正面和负面反响

对于2013年12月英语四、六级考试改革, 部分高校专家叫好, 认为四、六级考试开始变得有“范儿”。而网上一项调查显示, 八成网友担心今后的四、六级考试难度会加大。北京新东方国内考试部总监周雷分析, 这是对四六级考试结构的一次重要调整, 涉及了四六级考试的每个部分。比如, 改革前四六级写作话题简单、写作字数要求少, 有时也会给出提纲。难度最多相当于雅思的Task1和研考小作文水平, 略高于高考英语写作。改革后, 四级样题中出现了图画式作文, 给出的漫画说明也是英文的。写作既要求描述图画, 还要给出观点。而六级样题中, Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed, 这样的题目会让接触过雅思和托福的考生觉得眼熟。出题者给出一个观点, 让考生针对这个观点进行评论, 可以正着写, 也可以反着写, 但是要有例子论证, 有说服力。其要求已经和雅思接轨。

然而, 另一方面, 一提到大学英语四六级考试, 总会有一大批人扑上来指责一番, 取消四六级考试的呼声也一浪高过一浪。这不, 关于大学英语四、六级考试改革的消息一出, 就再一次引发关于要“改革”还是要“取消”的口水仗。为什么一项英语考试会引起如此之大的争论?这争论恐怕不仅仅是关乎四、六级, 而是集中了人们长久以来对我国英语教学的不满。或许在大家心里有件事一直搞不明白:我们在英语学习上下了那么大的力气, 花了那么多的时间和精力, 为什么多数国人依然学得了哑巴英语, 抑或是中国人听得懂, 外国人不明白的蹩脚的“Chinglish”?细想起来, 我国的孩子在学习英语上所用的时间和精力可能是世界之最, 小学、初中、高中、大学、硕士、博士, 都在学英语, 而且现在已经从娃娃抓起了, 两三岁的孩子连中国话还说不利索, 就已经开始念英语单词了, 家长们更是忙不迭地把孩子送进双语幼儿园, 为的是让孩子在今后英语学习路上能更加顺利一些。可当自己的付出和收获不成正比的时候, 人们心里的不平衡感便产生了, 对英语教学体系的质疑也就随之出现。其实, 语言是个很灵活的东西, 无论汉语还是英语, 都是用来交流的工具, 可现实是很多人即便过了英语四、六级之后还是处于“听懂的不多, 会说的更少”状态, 学了十几年英语却依然无法和外国人顺利沟通, 难以独立阅读专业英文书籍。可以说, 在英语教育上“费力不讨好”的结果伤了人的心, 如果再加上每到升学、就业、评职称时都不得不跨过的英语考试门槛, 则让英语最终变成了很多人的噩梦, 他们一次次被绊倒在前进的路上, 对英语产生强烈的抵触情绪, 对英语教学体系进行大规模改革有着强烈诉求。

2 四、六级考试改革路径

单从这次四、六级考试改革来说, 被延续多年的“完形填空”一直被认为是“中国式”英语考试的代表, 把它从考试形式中删除应该说是一次有益的改革尝试, 但因何此举赢得的赞许声微弱, 而吐槽声猛烈呢?或许面对人们心中如此之大的一个英语教育问题, 这样一个小小的考试改革在他们看来只能算是隔靴搔痒。而如何让国人不再把学英语当成一种沉重负担, 如何让那些在各种考试面前屡屡受挫的学生们重拾信心, 将是教育部门和有关专家需要认真思考和解决的问题。下面本人就此问题结合自己的认识提出几点看法。

2.1 降低四、六级考试的社会权重

要想真正降低大学英语四、六级考试的社会权重, 首先需要找到社会之所以推崇大学英语四、六级考试的原因。回顾近几年四、六级考试改革, 起初, 2005年6月实行四、六级考试改革试点, 我国大学英语四、六级考试全面改革计分体制和成绩报道方式, 从原来的百分制改为710分的记分体制, 不设及格线, 不颁发《合格证书》, 只发放成绩单。紧接着, 从2007年起英语四、六级考试进行全面的改革, 重点加强对学生英语综合应用能力特别是听说能力的测试, 增加了听力理解部分的题量和分值比例, 并新增了快速阅读理解测试。2013年12月, 英语四、六级又一次大幅度的改革, 取消完型填空题, 增加了段落匹配题和段落翻译题。纵观历次改革, 专家分析, 2005年的改革中取消证书的目的就是要降低考试的社会权重, 大学英语四、六级考试的重要性被社会各界过度夸大, 部分学校将四、六级考试证书与毕业证书和学位证书挂钩, 社会用人单位把四、六级考试证书作为一个新进员工的用人标准, 这些不可避免地导致很多学校为了盲目追求通过率和适当的教学效果而进行应试的教学, 而这从某种程度上来讲对教师们的授课和学生们的学习都是不利的;此外, 少数学生为了获得理想的分数和成绩, 还在四、六级考试过程中采取各种各样作弊的手段;更有甚者, 少数不法分子竟然为了自身利益, 铤而走险做出违法乱纪的事情, 这些都严重影响了四、六级考试本身的公平性和公正性。所以, 对大学英语四、六级考试本身以及其管理体制进行改革势在必行。

2.2 转变教师角色, 发展网络多媒体教学

长期以来, 传统的大学英语教学沿袭的是以教师为中心的教学模式, 忽视了学生的主体能动作用。这种形式的教学只局限于课堂, 并且授课形式非常单一, 同时使学生处于被动的学习状态, 极易造成填鸭式的课堂教学风格。因而, 学生的听、说、读、写等各方面的能力都得不到全面的培养。所以, 教师角色需要转变。最近, 随着现代教育技术的快速发展, 以计算机技术和多媒体视听技术为代表的现代教育技术在大学英语教学中得到广泛的运用。与此同时, 计算机技术和通信技术逐渐进入课堂, 有助于语言背景知识的介绍, 有利于形成鲜活生动的语言环境, 从而给学生留下深刻牢固的印象, 很大程度上促进了学生学习英语的积极性。另一方面, 现代教育技术对教师们在教学技能、教学方法、教学手段等方面都提出了更高的要求。教师只有对这些进行深入的研究才能从真正意义上改革大学英语教学, 才能更好地、更快地利用现代教育技术为教学服务。因而, 教师必须具备一定的教育科研能力。英语教师的角色只有从传统的“教书匠”向现代的研究型教师转变, 才能真正做到以变应变, 进而适应四、六级考试改革的需要。所以, 大学英语四、六级考试改革的关键是从根本上转变英语教师的角色。

3 结束语

大学英语四、六级考试作为一项全国性的标准化英语考试, 最近这些年一直保持着极大的报考需求。相关数据显示, 2012年全国报考四、六级的人数超过1800余万 (其中6月为924万, 12月为938万) , 远超过当年全国高考报名人数的915万、考研报名人数的176万、国考报名人数的112万人。所以, 四、六级考试的改革一直以来也引起了众多专业人士和考生们的广泛关注。2012年大学英语四、六级已经进行过一次改革, 实行“多题多卷”, 首要目的就是为了防止学生作弊行为, 而今年的这次改革旨在推动和促进学生更加重视培养英语的实用能力和综合能力, 这对于那些死学英语而不重视知识的实际运用的学生来说是一个非常大的挑战。有部分专家认为, 2013年的这次改革主要是改革教学内容, 促使学生的学习和教师的教学过程中更加重视英语应用能力的实际运用。然而, 英语四、六级改革, 如果只是局限在题型上的简单变化, 并不能真正改变什么。一味改变题型, 增加难度非但不能改变英语学习现状, 反而使学生对英语的学习兴趣越来越淡。有专家甚至指出, 教育部门对四、六级考试的改革, 无论是从试题内容上, 还是从考试形式上, 一直都只是治标不治本, 所以对四、六级考试的争议不应该是如何去改革的问题, 而应是该不该真正废除的问题。这也是在四、六级考试逐步改革的过程中需要深思的问题。

12月英语六级真题及答案 篇3

语言学习需要厚积薄发，而翻译的学习更是见于日常的点滴积累。要想做好翻译试题，考生需在平常打好基础。《新概念英语》作为英语学习的经典教材之一，在语法、词汇以及句型的使用方面都有可圈可点之处。考生若在平时注重学习此类英语教材，定有助于四、六级考试备考。下面本文就以《新概念英语》第三册（下文简称《新概念3》）中的例句为辅来解析2012年12月六级翻译真题，希望能以点带面，启发考生将教材中所学的词句与考试实战结合起来。

Through years of hard work， they ___________ （已经把那片荒地变成了肥沃的农田）.

解析 本题涉及三个考点，下面我们来一一分析。

①考查时态的使用。通过括号中的提示词“已经”可知，这句话要使用现在完成时态，即have done结构。

②考查动词词组“turn … into …”（把……变成……）的用法。考生如果熟悉《新概念3》的话，就会发现该册课文中曾多次出现这一词组。例如，第47课Too High a Price？（《代价太高？》）中的一句话里就出现了这一词组：“There are only four ways you can deal with rubbish： dump it， burn it， turn it into something you can use again， attempt to produce less of it.”（我们只有四种对付垃圾的方法：倾倒、焚烧、把垃圾变成再生材料或试图少产生一些垃圾。）

③考查名词“荒地”和名词词组“肥沃的农田”的英文表达法。“荒地”的表达还是比较常见的，美国诗人T·S·艾略特最有影响力的一部诗作为The Waste Land （《荒原》），标题中的Waste Land就是“荒原、荒地”的意思。第47课中还出现了fertilizer （化肥）一词，该词正是源于形容词fertile （肥沃的）；而第56课Our Neighbor， the River （《河流，我们的邻居》）中也提到了词组farm land，即为“农田”的意思。由此一来，“肥沃的农田”即可翻译为fertile farm land。

参考译文 have turned that waste land into a fertile farm land

考点攻略 这里主要讲讲现在完成时。现在完成时是六级翻译常考的时态之一，该时态看似简单，但很多考生对其存在误解，误以为这是一个“表过去”的时态。虽然这一时态表面描写过去的动作，但它强调的并不是动作在过去发生，而是强调过去发生的动作对现在的影响，或者强调过去发生的动作持续到现在。所以该时态的落脚点是“现在”，考生要注意这一点。

It was long since I last saw her， and if she had not greeted me first _____________ （我几乎认不出她来）.

解析 本题考查如下两个考点。

①考查虚拟语气的用法。通过非真实条件句“if she had not greeted me first”，考生可知这句话是对过去事实的一种虚拟，因此空格中的主句应使用“would have done”的结构。

②考查动词recognize （认出）的用法。《新概念3》的课文中多次用过这一动词。例如第2课Thirteen equals One （《十三等于一》）中就出现过这一动词：“In the torchlight， he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as Bill Wilkins， our local grocer.”（借着电筒光，他看见一个人，马上认出那是本地杂货店主比尔·威尔金斯。）

参考译文 I would not have recognized her

考点攻略 这里主要讲讲虚拟语气的用法。虚拟语气的基本形式有三种：对过去事实的虚拟、对现在事实的虚拟和对将来事实的虚拟。

①对过去事实的虚拟：虚拟条件句的谓语动词用过去完成式，而主句的谓语动词则用“would/should/could/might have +过去分词”的形式。《新概念3》的课文中也多次出现与过去事实相反的虚拟语气，例如第25课The Cutty Sark （《“卡帝萨克”号帆船》）中的一个句子：“There is no doubt that if she had not lost her rudder she would have won the race easily.”（毫无疑问，如果中途没有失去舵，“卡帝萨克”号肯定能在比赛中轻易夺冠。）在这句话中，发生在过去的事实已经无法改变，但作者想表达自己强烈的感慨，于是对发生在过去的这个故事使用了虚拟语气。

②对现在事实的虚拟：虚拟条件句的谓语动词用过去式，而主句的谓语动词则常用“would/could/might/should +动词原形”的形式。第17课The longest Suspension Bridge in the World （《世界上最长的吊桥》）中有这样一句话：“It has been estimated that if the bridge were packed with cars， it would still only be carrying a third of its total capacity.”（据估计，若桥上摆满了汽车，也只不过是桥的总承载力的1/3。）我们当然知道一座桥不会摆满汽车，但这里作者为了表达该桥的承载能力，使用了与现在事实相反的虚拟语气。

③对将来事实的虚拟：虚拟条件句的谓语动词可以用过去式、“should +动词原形”形式或“were to +动词原形”形式，而主句的谓语动词则用“would/should/could/might +动词原形”形式。

此外，虚拟条件句还有一种变式叫含蓄条件句：在特定的上下文或一目了然的情况下，可以省略if条件句，或使用介词短语、副词或非谓语动词等形式代替if条件句来实现虚拟的目的。我们来看第60课 Too Early and Too Late （《太早和太晚》）中的一句话：“Without it， nothing could ever be brought to a conclusion； everything would be in state of chaos.”（不准时将一事无成，事事都会陷入混乱不堪的境地。） 实际上，这句话里without it就是一个含蓄的虚拟条件句，它可以表达为“if there were no punctuality”。

Our defense at the court hearing finally ________________ （使法官确信我们是清白的）.

解析 本题主要考查考生如何用英文表达“确信”和“清白”。关于“确信”的表达法，我们在第1课A Puma at large （《逃遁的美洲狮》）中就遇到过：“The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma， but where had it come from？”（专家们如今已经完全确信那只动物就是美洲狮，但它是从哪儿来的呢？）这句话中的convince一词表达的就是“（使）确信”的意思。第35课Justice Was Done （《伸张正义》）主要探讨了“伸张正义”的话题，其中有这样一句话：“We might say that justice has been done when a man’s innocence or guilt has been proved beyond doubt.”（当某人被证据确凿地证明无罪或有罪的时候，我们也许会说正义得到了伸张。）这句话中的innocence一词正是guilt （有罪）的反义词，表示“清白、无罪”的意思。此外，第35课中也出现了“法官”的英文表达法：“Judges， however wise or eminent， are human and can make mistakes.”（法官无论如何聪明与有名，毕竟也是人，也会出差错的。）

参考译文 convinced the judge of our innocence

考点攻略 这里主要讲讲多样化表达。大多数考生看到“使法官确信我们是清白的”时的第一反应便是将之译为“convinced the judge that we were innocent”。之所以有这种反应，是因为考生太容易受中式思维的影响。其实这句话完全可以不用从句，而是简单地表达为“convinced the judge of our innocence”。考生平时要注意积累多样化的英文表达，避免用语单调、呆板。我们来看第9课Flying Cats （《飞猫》）中的一个句子：“Apparently， there is a good deal of truth in this idea. A cat’s ability to survive falls is based on fact.”（显然，这种说法有些道理。猫在跌落时能够大难不死是有事实作为依据的。）这句话中突出显示的句子巧妙地用there be句型和名词结构取代了“this idea is probably true”这一老套的用法。

_________________ （你可以放心） we will fulfill our task ahead of time.

解析 本题主要涉及如下两个考点。

①考查“放心”一词的英文表达法。英文中的assure或reassure都可以表达“使……放心”的意思。

②考查宾语从句引导词的用法。这一考点比较隐晦。若考生仔细分析整个句子，会发现这句话是一个主从复合句，题目中给出的英文部分是宾语从句，又因为该宾语从句与主句谓语动词之间被代词you分开，所以考生在填答案的时候最好加上宾语从句的引导词that，以免造成语义混乱。

参考译文 We can assure/reassure you that

考点攻略 这里主要讲讲动词对句子结构的影响。在英文中，一个简单句只能有一个谓语动词。如果出现第二个或者更多的谓语动词，就要使用从句或非谓语动词结构等来处理。大多数考生对从句用法的掌握还不错，但非谓语动词结构是一大难点。我们来看第53课In the Public Interest （《为了公众的利益》）中的一个句子：“A foreigner living in a Swedish village wrote to the Ombudsman complaining that he had been ill-treated by the police， simply because he was a foreigner.”（一个住在瑞典乡村的外国人写信给司法特派员，抱怨说他受到警察的虐待，原因就是因为他是个外国人。）这句话中包含三个“动词”：live、write和complain。但谓语动词只有一个，那就是write。live和complain都是以非谓语动词（-ing分词）的形式出现的，在句中分别做定语和状语。理清了动词的问题，就解决了句子结构的问题。所以，考生在做翻译题时要特别注意句子中的动词，先理清句子结构，再动笔翻译。

Man should live in harmony with nature， and ______________ （试图征服它是不明智的）.

解析 本题涉及如下两个考点。

①考查“it is + adj. + to do/that …”这一结构的用法。考生若按括号中中文的语序来组织英文语序，句子结构就会出现“头重脚轻”的现象。所以，建议考生在这里使用“it is + adj. + to do …”结构，用it作形式主语，把句子的真正主语“试图征服它”放在句末。

②考查“征服”一词的英文表达法。“征服”对应的英文是conquer。

参考译文 it is not wise to try/attempt to conquer it

考点攻略 这里主要讲讲形式主语it。It作为形式主语可以用来指代不定式、动名词或名词性从句，避免句子出现“头重脚轻”的现象，以达到句子整体结构的平衡。《新概念3》的课文中多次出现it作形式主语的情况，例如第1课中的句子：“It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.”（想到在宁静的乡村里有一头危险的野兽继续逍遥流窜，真令人担心。）这句话中it作形式主语，指代置于句末的名词性从句。

Passage 1

Wilma Subra had no intention of becoming a public speaker.After graduating from college with degrees in chemistry and microbiology, she went to work at Gulf South Research Institute in

Louisiana.As part of her job, she conducted field research on toxic substances in the environment, often in minority communities located near large industrial polluters.She found many families were being exposed to high, sometimes deadly levels of chemicals and other toxic substances.But she was not allowed to make her information public.Frustrated by these restrictions, Subra left her job in 1981, created her own company and has devoted the past two decades to helping people fight back against giant industrial polluters.She works with families and community groups to conduct environmental tests and hybrid test results, and organize for change.Because of her efforts, dozens of toxic sites across the country have been cleaned up.And one chemical industry spokesperson calls her “a top gun” for the environmental movement.How has Subra achieved all this? Partly through her scientific training, partly through her commitment to environmental justice.But just as important is her ability to communicate with people through public speaking.“Public speaking,” she says, “is the primary vehicle I use for reaching people.” If you had asked Subra before 1981, do you see yourself as a major public speaker? She would have laughed at the idea.Yet today she gives more than one hundred presentations a year.Along the way, she’s lectured at Harvard, testified before congress, and addressed audiences in 40 states, as well as in Mexico, Canada, and Japan.Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26.What did Wilma Subra do as part of her job while working at Gulf South Research Institute?

27.Why did Wilma Subra leave her job in 1981?

28.What results have Wilma Subra’s efforts had in the past two decades?

29.What does the speaker say has contributed to Wilma Subra’s success？

Passage 2

One of the biggest challenges facing employers and educators today is the rapid advance of globalization.The market place is no longer national or regional, but extends to all corners of the world.And this requires a global-ready workforce.Universities have a large part to play in preparing students for the 21st century labor market by promoting international educational experiences.The most obvious way universities can help develop a global workforce is by encouraging students to study abroad as part of their course.Students who have experienced another culture firsthand are more likely to be global-ready when they graduate.Global workforce development doesn’t always have to involve travel abroad, however.If students learn another language and study other cultures, they will be more global-ready when they graduate.It is important to point out that students also need to have a deep understanding of their own culture before they can begin to observe, analyze and evaluate other cultures.In multi-cultural societies, people can study each other’s cultures to develop intercultural competencies, such as critical and reflective thinking and intellectual flexibility.This can be done both through the curriculum and through activities on campus outside of the classroom, such as art exhibitions and lectures from international experts.Many universities are already embracing this challenge and providing opportunities for students to become global citizens.Students themselves, however, may not realize that when they graduate, they will be competing in a global labor market.And universities need to raise awareness of these issues amongst undergraduates.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you just heard:

30.What is one of the biggest challenges facing employers and educators today?

31.What should students do first before they can really understand other cultures?

32.What should college students realize according to the speaker?

Passage 3

To see if hair color affects a person’s chances of getting a job, researchers at California State University asked 136 college students to review the resume and photograph of a female applicant for a job as an accountant.Each student was given the same resume but the applicant’s picture was altered so that in some photos, her hair was golden, in some red and in some brown.The result-----with brown hair, the woman was rated more capable and she was offered a higher salary than when she had a golden or red hair.Other studies have found similar results.Many respondents rate women with golden hair as less intelligent than other people and red hair as more temperamental.Women with red or golden hair are victims of the common practice of stereotyping.A stereotype is a simplistic or exaggerated image that human carries in their minds about groups of people.For example, lawyers are shrewd and dishonest is a popular stereotype.Stereotyping can occur in public speaking classes when trying to choose a speech topic.Some males think that women are uninterested in how to repair cars or some females think that men are uninterested in creative hobbies, such as knitting a needlepoint.We should reject to stereotypes because they force all people in a group into the same simple pattern.They fail to account for individual differences and the wide range of characteristics among members of any group.Some lawyers are dishonest, yes, but many are not.Some women are uninterested in repairing cars, yes, but some are enthusiastic with mechanics.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33.What did researchers at California State University find?

34.What is the popular stereotype of lawyers?

12月英语六级真题及答案 篇6

一、早读课安排要有鲜明的目标意识

早读课最主要的任务是朗读和背诵。那么读什么、背什么、完成多少任务,应当有明确的安排。任务要适中,要让多数学生有信心完成任务。早读目标应包括以下内容:

1.早读的内容

教师要让学生明确本节课读什么。早读范围广泛,但因为时间限制,所以安排的早读量要适中,保证绝大多数学生在规定的时间内完成任务。

2.早读的要求

教师要根据不同的早读内容,给学生讲明早读的要求。早读的要求要切合学生的实际,要使大多数学生都能完成,从而让学生体验完成任务、达到目标后的喜悦感。

二、早读的形式要多样化。布置了任务之后，就要想法设法去完成这个任务，那就是怎样读，即早读的形式需要合理地组织安排，不可放任自流。可采用集体朗读、集体背诵、小组赛读、男女分读等多种形式的早读，这样能极大地调动学生早读的积极性。

三、利用多种手段检测效果。有效的早读一定要及时检查,并善始善终,保证质量。如果只安排了早读任务而不检查效果,个别自觉性不高的学生就会产生偷懒心理,说闲话、做小动作、看课外书、睡觉甚至滋生事端。因此,教师要做好对早读效果的检查和抽查。早读的最后5~10分钟是最佳抽查时间。对抽查的内容,教师应根据不同学生的学习层次注意优差兼顾,难易适中。

时间

安排

自改革以后，六级阅读理解需在第二张答题卡上完成，共包括选词填空、长篇阅读和仔细阅读三个部分，答题时间为40分钟。那么考生该如何合理分配做题时间呢？笔者根据平日的教学经验、考试的具体操作和题型分值的分布，建议考生做如下安排：选词填空用5分钟左右，长篇阅读用15分钟左右，仔细阅读尽量控制在20分钟以内（即每篇文章10分钟）。这就需要考生在备考期间逐渐提高做题速度。当然，速度是水到渠成的事，所以考生在复习时一定要先练准确率，再练速度！

选词

填空

选词填空题的文章相对较短，长度在300词左右。该题要求考生从备选的15个单词中选出10个合适的词填入文中空格处，每个词只能选一次。长期以来，考生认为选词填空考的仅仅是对单词的记忆，其实不然，它考的实际上是词性和语法。所谓“考词性”是指考生可以根据词性对备选单词进行分类以缩小选择范围（该题考查对象以实词为主，如名词、动词、形容词和副词）;而“考语法”是指考生可以先根据句子的时态、语态、句子成分、主谓一致、非谓语动词等相关语法规则来判断空格处要填的单词的词性，然后再根据上下文内容及行文逻辑进行选择。例如第一套真题中的第37题：“The royal 37 has been promoting radical ideas for most of his adult life.”首先，考生要判断词性。由于空格前面紧挨着形容词royal，形容词修饰名词，所以空格处应该填名词。备选项中的名词共五个，分别是选项C （environmentalist）、选项D （expeditions）、选项F （notions）、选项I （recognition）和选项M （throne）。这句话的大致意思是： 成年之后的大部分时间都在推崇一些激进的观点。考生可据此推测空格处要填的内容在整句话中作主语，而且这个主语应该是人。此外，根据空格后面的has been，考生可以判断该句主语应为单数形式。上述五个选项中只有选项C的environmentalist （环保主义者）既是人，又是单数形式，放在句中也讲得通，因此为正确答案。再如第一套真题中的第45题：“This year， as it happens， South Korean scientists proved that plants really do 45 to sound.”考生读完整句话后会发现，在proved之后由that引导的宾语从句缺乏谓语动词，因此空格处应填动词。备选项中的动词共六个，分别是选项A （conform）、选项E （impact）、选项J （respond）、选项K （subordinate）、选项L （suppressing）和选项O （urging）。考生仔细观察会发现空格前面用了助动词do。当助动词do放在动词前面时，随后的动词要用动词原形，表示强调。据此考生可以排除选项L和选项O。在剩下的四个选项中，唯有选项J （respond）能和空格后面的介词to构成固定搭配respond to （对……做出反应）且符合句意，因此为正确答案。

小结：选词填空题难度较大。考生平时要注意适当积累单词，同时学会利用构词法（如前缀、后缀等）来判断生词的词性、词义。语法方面，考生必须牢固掌握句子成分、从句概念、主谓一致和非谓语动词等相关语法内容。

长篇

阅读

长篇阅读是四、六级改革后的新题型，又称作“段落信息匹配题”，要求考生判断题目中的10句话分别对应文章的哪一个段落，其中个别段落不对应任何一句话或是对应多句话。与改革前的快速阅读相比，长篇阅读的考法其实是“换汤不换药”，考查的依然是考生通过阅读获取信息的能力。但长篇阅读的考查形式更新颖，考法更灵活，同时难度也略有上升。

段落信息匹配题的核心解题技巧是“同义替换”，即带着题目中的关键词回原文定位相关信息，与题目表述一致的内容所在的段落即为正确答案。题目中的句子多半针对文中的转折处和段落首尾处出题，考生在解题时可重点关注这些地方。那么在题目中，什么样的词才算关键词呢？关键词主要有两种：一种是显性关键词，如包含大写字母的词（或词组）、人名、地名、时间、数字、生词等;一种是隐性关键词，主要指句子的主干内容。换句话说，当一句话中没有任何显性的标志时，考生要抓住句子所谈论的主体（即主语）和对象（即宾语）。比如第一套真题中的第49题：“Amanda Ripley thinks that athletic coaches are poor at classroom instruction.”这句话中只有开头的人名Amanda Ripley是显性关键词，但该人名曾在原文不同段落中出现多次，不适合用来定位，所以考生需要抓住句中的隐性关键词。由于这句话的主语是开头的人名，所以考生应重点关注句子的宾语（即由that引导的宾语从句）。根据宾语从句中的核心词athletic coaches和classroom instruction，考生可将相关信息定位至段落K的第一句话：“Another unfounded criticism that Ripley makes is bringing up the stereotype that athletic coaches are typically lousy （蹩脚的） classroom teachers.”这句话的大致意思是：Ripley提出了另一种站不住脚的观点，即体育教练往往是糟糕的课堂教师。这句话与题目给出的句子构成了同义替换，因此段落K为正确答案。

小结：长篇阅读考的是题目与原文的对应关系。考生要注意此部分题目不再按顺序出题，对应的答案信息通常集中在段落首尾处和文中转折处。

仔细

阅读

仔细阅读是六级阅读中最重要的部分，因为其分值最高且最易失分。与长篇阅读不同，仔细阅读主要考查考生对文章主题的把握和排除干扰选项的能力，考查题型以细节题为主。除此之外，本次考试还重点考查了考生的审题能力，由于题目中设置的陷阱较多，考生在做题时非常容易出错。

在解答仔细阅读部分的题目时，考生要遵循三条原则：①顺序原则，即出题顺序与行文顺序高度一致;②同义原则，即能与原文信息构成同义替换的选项通常就是正确选项;③考点唯一原则，即出过题（或者被定位过）的句子不可能同时是两道题的答案。下面来看两道例题。

例1：In what sense are humans the ultimate invasive species？ （选自第一套Part III Section C Question 57）

A） They are much greedier than other species.

B） They are a unique species born to conquer.

C） They force other species out of their territories.

D） They have an urge to expand their living space.

解析：这是一道细节题，问的是从什么意义上说，人类是终极的入侵物种。根据题干中的关键词the ultimate invasive species，考生可将答案信息定位至原文第三段第一句：“Human are the ultimate invasive species—when they move into new territory， they often displace the wildlife that was already living there.”这句话的意思是，人类到达新领地后，往往会取代之前已经在那里生活的野生动物，与选项C的意思一致，所以选项C是正确答案。

例2：What was the University of Kent famous for？ （选自第二套Part III Section C Question 61）

A） Its comfortable campus life.

B） Its up-to-date course offerings.

C） Its distinguished teaching staff.

D） Its diverse academic programmes.

解析：这也是一道细节题，但却在题干的设置上做足了文章，出错率较高。根据题干中的关键词University of Kent和famous for，考生可将答案信息定位至原文第一段第一句：“Until recently， the University of Kent prided itself on its friendly image.”读到这里，很多考生会误以为肯特大学是以friendly image著称的，可四个选项中没有与此信息一致的内容，这又是为什么呢？其实，考生只要仔细审题，就会发现题干中的另一个关键词was，原来这道题问的是肯特大学过去以什么著称。顺着刚刚定位到的句子往下读，考生会发现这样一句话：“Over the past few months it has been working hard， with the help of media consultants， to play down its cosy reputation in favour of something more academic and serious.”由此可见，在过去的几个月中，肯特大学一直在努力摆脱曾经的cosy reputation，这说明这所学校过去是以舒适的校园生活著称的，因此选项A才是正确答案。

除细节题以外，本次考试还出现了以往考查较少的态度题。态度题的解题技巧与细节题相似，都是采用“定位+对照”的方法，只不过态度题中用于定位的关键词是“态度对象”，而对照的内容则是原文中关于该对象的评价以及一些表达情感和态度的词汇。

例3：What does the author think of social media as a whole？ （选自第一套Part III Section C Question 65）

A） It will enable human society to advance at a faster pace.

B） It will pose a grave threat to our traditional ways of life.

C） It is bound to bring about another information revolution.

D） It breaks down the final barriers in human communication.

解析：这道题问的是作者对社交媒体的态度，所以这道题的“态度对象”是社交媒体，这也是题干中的关键词。考生根据关键词将答案信息定位至原文最后一段后会发现，尽管这段话一直在讲社交媒体发展的不确定性，态度似乎并不乐观，但最后一句却来了个大转折：“I am optimistic， however， that a connected humanity will find a way to uplift itself.”由此可见，作者的整体态度是乐观的，而且认为社交媒体能推动人类社会的发展，因此选项A为正确答案。

小结：仔细阅读考查的题型以细节题为主，同时辅以推断题、态度题和主旨题。从内容上看，两篇文章都不难懂。从题目上看，本次考试需要考生仔细审题，先读懂题目，再利用顺序原则和关键词回原文定位，从而缩小寻找范围，找准答案。此外，本次考试突出了六级阅读的一贯特点：部分题目的答案需要考生自己理解和归纳，而不是从原文中照搬。

备考

建议

考生在备考六级阅读时，一定要多做有针对性的练习。下面是笔者为考生提供的几点建议。

首先，坚持背单词。背单词的方法多种多样，考生只要能找到适合自己的方法就好。针对六级阅读，笔者建议考生以历年真题中出现的单词或者高频词为主。另外，背单词不是一蹴而就的，而要讲究“少食多餐”。考生与其每天花好几个小时狂背单词，不如学会用零散的时间去记忆，反复多次，循序渐进。

其次，先练“准”，再练“速”。六级的确是注重速度的考试，但考生不要盲目训练做题速度。速度与能力相关，只有能力提升了，速度才会相应提升。倘若考生一味追求做题速度，答题的准确率一定会受影响。
