OneBirds are famous for carrying things around.Some, like homing pigeons, can be trained to deliver messages and packages.Other birds unknowingly carry seeds that cling to them for the ride.Canadian scientists have found a worrisome, new example of the power that birds have to spread stuff around.Way up north in the Canadian Arctic, seabirds are picking up dangerous chemicals in the ocean and delivering them to ponds near where the birds live.Some 10,000 pairs of the birds, called fulmars, a kind of Arctic seabird, make their nests on Devon Island, north of the Arctic Circle.The fulmars travel some 400 kilometers over the sea to find food.When they return home, their droppings end up all around their nesting sites, including in nearby ponds.Previously, scientists noticed pollutants arriving in the Arctic with the wind.Salmon also carry dangerous chemicals as the fish migrate between rivers and the sea.The bodies of fish and other meat-eaters can build up high levels of the chemicals.To test the polluting power of fulmars, researchers collected samples of deposit from 11 ponds on Devon Island.In ponds closest to the colony, the results showed there were far more pollutants than in ponds less affected by the birds.The pollutants in the ponds appear to come from fish that fulmars eat when they're out on the ocean.People who live, hunt, or fish near bird colonies need to be careful, the researchers say.The birds don't mean to cause harm, but the chemicals they carry can cause major problems.Questions 9 to 12 are based on the passage you have just

TwoIn recent years, the death rate among American centenarians—people who have lived to age 100 or older— has decreased, dropping 14 percent for women and 20 percent for men from 2023 to 2023.The leading causes of death in this age group are also changing.In 2023, the top five causes of death for centenarians were heart disease, stroke, flu, cancer and Alzheimer's disease.But by 2023, the death rate from Alzheimer's disease for this age group had more than doubled—increasing from 3.8 percent to 8.5 percent—making the progressive brain disease the second leading cause of death for centenarians.One reason for the rise in deaths from Alzheimer's disease in this group may be that developing this condition remains possible even after people beat the odds of dying from other diseases such as cancer.People physically fit enough to survive over 100 years ultimately give in to diseases such as Alzheimer's which affects the mind and cognitive function.In other words, it appears that their minds give out before their bodies do.On the other hand, the death rate from flu dropped from 7.4 percent in 2023 to 4.1 percent in 2023.That pushed flu from the third leading cause of death to the fifth.Overall, the total number of centenarians is going up.In 2023, there were 72,197 centenarians, compared to 50,281 in 2023.But because this population is getting larger, the number of deaths in this group is also increasing— 18,434 centenarians died in 2023, whereas 25,914 died in 2023.Questions 13 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Questio.13.Wha.doe.th.speake.sa.abou.th.ris.o.dyin.fo.America.centenari

I think what we need to do is consider a definition.I'm going to define what love is but then most of the experiments I'm going to talk about are really focused more on attraction than love.And I'm going to pick a definition from a former colleague, Robert Sternberg, who is now the dean at Tufts University but was here on our faculty at Yale for nearly thirty years.And he has a theory of love that argues that it's made up of three components: intimacy, passion, and commitment, or what is sometimes called decision commitment.And these are relatively straightforward.He argued that you don't have love if you don't have all three of these elements.Intimacy is the feeling of closeness, of connectedness with someone, of bonding.Operationally, you could think of intimacy as you share secrets, you share information with this person that you don't share with anybody else.Okay.That'rmatio.tha.i sn'.share.wit.othe.people.The second element is passion.Passion is the drive that leads to romance.You can think of it as physical attraction.And Sternberg argues that this is a required component of a love relationship.The third element of love in Sternberg's theory is what he calls decision commitment, the decision that one is in a love relationship, the willingness to label it as such, and a commitment to maintain that relationship at least for some period of time.Sternberg would argue it's not love if you don't call it love and if you don't have some desire to maintain the relationship.So if you have all three of these, intimacy, passion and commitment, in Sternberg's theory you have love.Now what's interesting about the theory is what do you have if you only have one out of three or two out of three.What do you have and how is it different if you have a different two out of three?What's interesting about this kind of theorizing is it gives rise to many different combinations that can be quite interesting when you break them down and start to look them carefully.So what I've done is I've taken Sternberg's three elements of love, intimacy, passion and commitment, and I've listed out the different kinds of relationships you would have if you had zero, one, two or three out of the three elements.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the recording you have just heard.Questio.16.Wha.doe.th.speake.sa.abou.mos.o.th.experiment.mentione.i.h

I am Elizabeth Hoffler, Master of Social Work.I am a social worker, a lobbyist, and a special assistant to the executive director at the National Association of Social Workers.Today we are going to be talking about becoming a social worker.Social work is the helping profession.Its primary mission is to enhance human well-being and help meet thebasic needs of all people, with a particular focus on those who are vulnerable, oppressed, and living in poverty.We often deal with complex human needs.Social work is different from other professions, because we focus on the person and environment.We deal with the external factors that impact a person's situation and outlook.And we create opportunity for assessment and intervention, to help clients and communities cope effectively with their reality and change that reality when necessary.In thousands of ways social workers help other people, people from every age, every background, across the country.Wherever needed, social workers come to help.The most well-known aspect of the profession is that of a social safety net.We help guide people to critical resources and counsel them on life-changing decisions.There are more than 600,000 professional social workers in the country, and we all either have a bachelor's degree, a master's degree, or a PhD in Social Work.There are more clinically trained social workers than clinically trained psychiatrists, psychologists, and psychiatric nurses combined.Throughout this series you will learn more about the profession, the necessary steps to get a social work degree, the rich history of social work, and the many ways that social workers help others.Later in this series, you will hear from Stacy Collins and Mel Wilson, fellow social workers at the National Association of Social Workers.Stacy is going to walk you through the step-by-step process of becoming a social worker, and Mel will tell you about the range of options you have once you get your social work degree, as well as the high standards of responsibility he social workers must adhere to.The National Association of Social Workers represents nearly 145,000 social workers across the country.Our mission is to promote, protect, and advance the social work profession.We hope you enjoy this series about how you can make a difference by becoming a social worker.Next, we are going to talk about choosing social work.Questions 19 to 22 are based on the recording you have just heard.Questio.19.Wha.doe.th.speake.mainl.tal.about?Questio.20.Wha.d.socia.worker.mainl.do?mon.accordin.t.th.speaker?Questio.22.Wha.i.Me.Wilso.goin.t.tal.abou.i.th.series?Recording ThreeToday, I'd like to talk about what happens when celebrity role models get behind healthy habits, but at the same time, promote junk food.Currently, there's mounting criticism of Michelle Obama's “Let's Move!”campaign, which fights childhood obesity by encouraging youngsters to become more physically active, and has signed on singer Beyoncéand basketball player Shaquille O'Neal, both of whom also endorse sodas, which are a major contributor to the obesity epidemic.Now there's a lot more evidence of how powerful a celebrity— especially a professional athlete— can be in influencing children's behavior.In a report published by the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University, researchers studied 100 professional athletes and their endorsement contracts.The team focused on athletes since they are theoretically the best role models for active, healthy lifestyles for children.After sorting the deals by category, they determined that among the 512 brands associated with the athletes, most involved sporting goods, followed closely by food and beverage brands.Sports drinks, which are often high in sugar and calories made up most ofthe food and drink deals, with soft drinks and fast food filling out the remainder.Of the 46 beverages endorsed by professional athletes, 93% relied exclusively on sugar for all of their calories.It's no surprise that high-profile athletes can influence children's eating behaviors, but the scientists were able to quantify how prevalent these endorsements are in the children's environment.Advertisements featuring professional athletes and their endorsed products tend to get impressive exposure on TV, radio, in print and online.And in 2023, the researchers reported that children ages 12 to 17 saw more athlete-endorsed food and beverage brand commercials than adults.One reason any campaign wants a popular celebrity spokesperson is because kids are attracted to them no matter what they are doing.We can't expect kids to turn off that admiration when the same person is selling sugar.At best, kids might be confused.At worst, they'll think the messages about soda are the same as the messages about water, but those two beverages aren't the same.If children are turning to athletes as role models, it's in their best interest if their idols are consistent.Consistent messaging of positive behaviors will show healthier lifestylesfor kids to follow.Questions 23 to 25 are based on the recording you have just heard.Questio.23.Wha.i.th.ai.o.Michell.Obama'.campaign?Questio.24.Wha.doe.researc.fin.abou.advertisement.featurin.professiona. athletes?Questio.25.Wha.doe.th.speake.thin.kids.idol.shoul.do?对话一男:

the small community of north haven on longisland is home to some six hundred to sevenhundred deer. the department of environmental conservation estimates the optimumpopulation at 60. the town has been browsed bare of vegetation except where gardens andshrubs are protected by high fences.drivers routinely collide with deer and there are so many dead bodies left by the side of theroad that the town has made it a deal with a local pet cemetery to collect and dispose of thebodies. some people in the town have become ill from deer transmitted diseases. on theoccasions when hunting has been tried, local animal rights people have worked to secure courtorders against the hunts. and when that is failed, they stop the hunters, banging on pots andpans to alert the deer. town meetings called to discuss the problem inevitably dissolved intoconfrontations.the activists believe simply that the deer are not the problem. some communities have evendiscussed the possibility of bringing wolves back into the ecological mix. that means wolves inthe suburbs of new york. it is almost too wonderfulnot to try it. the wolves would kill deer ofcourse. they would also terrorize and kill dogs and cats which is not what the suburbandwellers have in mind.questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heardq16. what do we learn about white-tailed deer in north haven?q17. why do local animal rights people bang on pots and pans?q18. what would happen if wolves were brought back into the ecological mix?六级短文2原文and now, if youll walk this way, ladies and gentlemen, the next room were going to see isthe room in which the family used to hold their formal dinner parties and even occasionallyentertain heads of state and royalty. however, they managed to keep this room friendly andintimate. and i think youll agree. it has a very informal atmosphere, quite unlike some grandhouses you visit. the curtains were never drawn, even at night, so guests got a view of the lakeand fountains outside which were lit up at night – a very attractive sight. as you can see,ladies and gentlemen, the guests were seated very informally around this oval table, whichwould add to the relaxed atmosphere. the table dates from the 18th century andis made fromspanish oak. its rather remarkable for the fact that although its extremely big, itssupported by just six rather slim legs. however, it seems to have survived like that for 200years. so its probably going to last a bit longer. the chairs which go with the table are not acomplete set. there were originally six of them. they are interesting for the fact that they arevery plain and undecorated for the time, with only one plain central panel at the back and noarmrests. i myself find them rather uncomfortable to sit in for very long, but people wereused to more discomfort in the past. and now, ladies and gentlemen, if youd like to follow mein to the great hall…q19. what do we learn about the speaker?q20. what does the speaker say about the room they are visiting?【篇二:2023年12月英语六级听力原文】语六级听力原文。

听力原文Section A短对话(11~18)11W: This is one of our best and least expensive two-bedroom listings. It’s located in a quiet building and it’s close to bus lines.M: That maybe true. But look at it,it’s awful, the paint has peeled off and carpet is worn and the stove is ancient.Q: What can we infer from the conversation?12M: The pictures we took at the botanical garden should be ready tomorrow.W:I can’t wait to see them,I’m wondering if the shots I took are as good as I thought.Q: What is the woman eager to know?13W: The handle of the suitcase is broken. Can you have it fixed by next Tuesday?M: Let me see,I need to find a handle that matches but that shouldn’t take too long.Q: What does the man mean?14M:This truck looks like what I need but I’m worried about maintenance. For us it’ll have to operate for long periods of time in very cold temperatures.W: We have several models that are especially adaptive for extreme conditions. Would you like to see them?Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?15M: I think your boss would be very upset when he gets your letter of resignation.W: That may be so. But in the letter, I just told him frankly I could no longer live with his poor management and stupid decisions.Q: What do we learn about the woman?16W I’d like to exchange the shirt. I’ve learned that the person bought it for allergic to wool.M Maybe we can find something in cotton or silk. Please come this way.Q;What does the women want to do?17M: Excuse me, Miss?Did anyone happen to turn in a new handbag? You know,it’s a birthday gift for my wife.W: Let me see. Oh,we’ve got quite a lot of women’s bags here. Can you give me more detailed information, such as the color, the size and the trademark?Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?18M What are you going to do with the old house you are in heritage from your grandfather?W I once intended to sell it, but now,I’m thinking of turning it into a guest house,because it‘s still a solid structure.Q: What does the man plan to do with his old house?长对话(19~25)W: When you write a novel,do you know where you’re going, Dr. James?M: Yes, you must, really,if you’re writing the classical detective story, because it must be so carefully plotted and so carefully clued. I have schemes. I have charts. I have diagrams. It doesn’t mean to say that I always get it right, but I do plan before I begin writing. But what is so fascinating is how a book changes during the process of writing. It seems to me that creative writing is a process of revelation, really, rather than of creativity in the ordinary sense.W:When you’re planning the basic structure, do you like to go away to be sure that you’re by yourself?M: I need to be by myself certainly,absolutely. I can’t even bar e anybody else in the house. I don’t mind much where I am as long as I’ve got enough space to write, but I need to be completely alone.W: Is that very important to you?M: Oh,yes. I’ve never been lonely in all my life.W: How extraordinary! Never?M: No, never.W:You’re very lucky. Someone once said that there’s a bit of ice at the heart of every writer.M: Yes. I think this is true. The writer can stand aside from experience and look at it,watch it happening. There is this ‘detachment’ and I realize th at there are obviously experiences which would overwhelm everyone. But very often, a writer can appear to stand aside, and this detachment makes people feel there’s a bit of ice in the heart.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What is the key to write a good classical detective story according to the man?20. What does the man mainly need when working on a book?21. What does the man say about writers?W: There is an element there about competition then,isn’t there? Because British railways are a nationalized industry. There’s only one railway system in the country. If you don’t like a particular kind of big beans,you can go and buy another. But if you don’t like a particular railway,you can’t go and use another.M:Some people who write to me say this. They say that if you didn’t have monopoly,you wouldn’t be able to do the things you do. Well,I don’t think we do anything deliberately to upset our customers. We have particular problems. Since 1946, when the Transport Act came in, we were nationalized.W:Do you think that’s a good thing? Has it been a good thing for the railways, do you think, to be nationalized?M: Oh I think so, yes. Because in general,modes of transport are all around. Let’s face the fact. The car arrived. The car is here to stay. There is no question about that.W: So what are you saying then? Is it if the railways happen being nationalized, they would simply have disappeared?M: Oh,I think they would have. They’re disappearing fast in America. Er, the French railways lose 1 billion ponds a year. The German railways, 2 billion ponds a year. But you see,those governments are preparing to pour money into the transport system to keep it going.W: So in a sense, you cope between two extremes. On the one hand,you’re trying not to lose too much money. And on the other hand,you’ve got to provide the best service.M: Yes, you are right.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What does the woman say about British railways?23. What do some people who write to the man complain about?24. What does the man say threatens the existence of railways?25. What does the man say about railways in other countries?Section BPassage OneAmong global warming’s most frightening thr eats is the prediction is that the polar ice-caps will melt, raising sea level so much that coastal cities from New York to Los Angles to Shanghai will be flooded. Scientists agree that key player in this scenario is the West Antarctic ice sheet,a Brazil-size mass of frozen water that is much as 7000 feet thick. Unlike floating ice shelves which have little impact on sea level when they break up, the ice sheet is anchored to bedrock will blow the sea surface. Surrounded by open ocean, it is also vulnerable, but Antarctic experts disagree strongly on just how unstable it is. Now, new evidence reveals that all or most of the Antarctic ice sheet collapsed at least once during the past 1.3 million years, a period when global temperatures probably were not significantly higher than they are today. And the ice sheet was assumed to have been stable. In geological time, a million years is recent history. The proof, which was published last week in Science, comes from a team of scientists from Uppsala University in Sweden and California Institute of Technology who drew deep holes near the edge of ice sheet. Within samples collected from the solid substances lying beneath the ice. They found fossils of microscopic marine plants which suggest that the region was once open ocean not solid ice. As Herman Engleheart, a co-author from the California Institute of Technology says,‘the West Antarctic ice sheet disappear once and can disappear again.’26. What is one of the most frightening threats of global warming according to the passage?27. What did scientists disagree on?28. What is the latest information revealed about the West Antarctic ice sheet?29. What the scientists’ latest findings suggest?Passage TwoIt‘s always fun to write about research that you can actually try out for yourself.Try this: Take a photo and upload it to Facebook, then after a day or so, note what the URL link to the picture is and then delete it. Come back a month later and see if the link works. Chances are: It will.Facebook isn’t alone here. Researchers at Cambridge University have found that nearly half of the social networking sites don‘t immediately delete pictures when a user requests they be removed. In general, photo-centric websites like Flickr were found to be better at quickly removing deleted photos upon request.Why do “deleted” photos stick around so long? The problem relates to the way data is stored on large websites: While your personal computer only keeps one copy of a file, large-scale services like Facebook rely on what are called content delivery networks to manage data and distribution. It’s a complex system wherein data is copied to multiple intermediate devices,usually to speed up access to files when millions of people are trying to access the service at the same time. B ut because changes aren‘t reflected across the content delivery networks immediately, ghost copies of files tend to linger for days or weeks.In the case of Facebook, the company says data may hang around until the URL in question is reused, which is usual ly “after a short period of time”, though obviously that time can vary considerably.30. What does the speaker ask us to try out?31. What accounts for the failure of some websites to remove photos immediately?32. When will the unwanted data eventually disappear from Facebook according to the company?Passage ThreeEnjoying an iced coffee? Better skip dinner or hit the gym afterwards, with a cancer charity warning that some iced coffees contain as many calories as a hot dinner.The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) conducted a survey of iced coffees sold by some popular chains in Britain including Starbucks, Caffe Nero and Costa Coffee to gauge the calories as studies increasingly link obesity with cancer.The worst offender - a coffee from Starbucks -- had 561 calories. Other iced coffees contained more than 450 calories and the majority had an excess of 200.Health experts advise that the average woman should consume about 2,000 calories a day and a man about 2,500 calories to maintain a healthy weight. Dieters aim for 1,000 to 1,500 calories a day.“The fact that there is an iced coffee on the market with over a quarter of a woman’s daily calories allowance is alarming,” Dr Rachel Thompson, science programme manager at London-based WCRF, said in a widely-reported statement.“This is the amount of calories you might expect to have in an evening meal, not in a drink.”The WCRF has estimated that 19,000 cancers a year in Britain could be prevented if people lost their excess weight with growing evidence that excess body fat increases the risk of various cancers.“If you are having these types of coffee regularly then they will increase the chances of you becoming overweight, which in turn increases your risk of developing cancer, as well as other diseases such as heart disease.” she added.33. What warning did some health experts give?34. What does the author suggest people do after they have an iced coffee?35. What could British people expect if they maintain a normal body weight according to the WCRF?Section CPsychologists are finding that hope plays a surprisingly vital role in giving people a measurable advantage in rounds as diverse as academic achievement, bearing up in tough jobs, and coping with tragic illness. And, by contrast, the loss of hope, is turning out to be a stronger sign that a person may commit suicide than other factors long thought to be more likely risks. ‘Hope has proven a powerful predictor of outcome in every study we‘ve done so far,’ said Doctor Charles R. Snyder, a psychologist, who has devised a scale to assess how much hope a person has. For example, in research with 3920 college students, Doctor Snyder and his colleagues found that the level of hope among freshmen at the beginning of their first semester was a more accurate predictor of their college grades, than were their SAT scores or their grade point averages in high school, the two measures most commonly used to predict college performance. ‘Students with high hope set themselves higher goals and know how to work to attain them,’ Doctor Snyder said. ‘When you compare students of equivalent intelligence and past academic achievements,what sets them apart is hope.’ In devising a way to assess hope scientifically, Doctor Snyder went beyond the simple notion that hope is merely the sense that everything will turn out all right. ‘That notion is not concrete enough and it blurs two key components of hope,’ Doctor Snyder said,‘Having hope means believing you have both the will and the way to accomplish your goals, whatever they may be.’。

2023年6月英语六级听力答案2023年6月英语六级听力答案Part II 听力部分 Listening Comprehension (30 minutes)Section A ConversationConversation 1W: Professor Henderson could you give us a brief overview of what you do, where you work and your main area of research?M: Well the Center for Climate Research where I work links the science of climate change to issues around economics and policy.Some of our research is to do with the likely impacts of climate change and all of the associated risks.W: And how strong is the evidence that climate change is happening that its really something we need to be worried about.M: Well most of the science of climate change particularly that to do with global warming is simply fact.But other aspects of the science are less certain or at least more disputed.And so were really talking about risk what the economicstells us is that its probably cheaper to avoid climate change to avoid the risk than it has to deal with the likely consequences.W: So what are we doing? What can we do about it?M: Well I would argue that we need to develop the science specifically to understand the likely impacts of climate change in different contexts.As I said we need to understand the best ways of avoiding climate change and this will involve a huge transition to low carbon energy systems and the transition is a tremendous priority.And for this to happen, we may need action on a global scale from a political perspective.We need to understand the terms on which major countries like China and the USA might sign up to a global agreement because at the moment we dont have that consensus.W: Right.M: And we also need to plan ahead so that were in a position to deal with the likely levels of climate change which are already inevitable and even more so to for the levels that are likely if we dont get those global agreements.Q1. What does Professor H say about his main area of research?A It tries to predict the possible trends of global climate change.B It studies the impact of global climate change on people’s lives.C It links the science of climate change to economic and policy issues.D It focuses on the efforts countries can make to deal with global warning.[答案]CQ2. What does Professor H say about climate change?A It will take a long time before a consensus is reached on its impact.B It would be more costly to deal with its consequences than to avoid it.C It is the most pressing issue confronting all countries.D It is bound to cause endless disputes among nations.[答案]BQ3. What does Professor H say is a top priority in combating climate change?A The transition to low-carbon energy systems.B The cooperation among world major powers.C The signing of a global agreement.D The raising of people’s awar eness.[答案]AQ4. What does Professor H advise us to do to better deal with climate change?A Carry out more research on it.B Cut down energy consumption.C Plan well in advance.D Adopt new technology.[答案]CConversation 2W: I have many business English students. When I teach the classroom, we often end up talking about things like success and what leads to success. And its interesting that many of them mention the element of luck.M: Right.W: Luck is important to success. But since youve seen that fantastic video on the TED Talks website by Richard St. John, he doesnt mention luck at all.M: Well, Im a firm believer that people can make their own luck. I mean what people regard as luck, you can actually create, to a degree.W: Sure. I think a lot of what people consider luck is attributed to how you respond to the opportunities that come your way.M: Yes. Very good point.W: Seizing the opportunities. But was there any point in the video that you thought was particularly interesting?M: Yes. Actually there was. Something very impressive to me as many people think that luck is important and that natural talent is something you must have in order to be successful. And in the video we saw, the point about getting good at something is not about having some natural talent. Its all about practice, practice, practice.W: Definitely yeah. Natural talent helps in some way but at the end of the day you really do need to work hard and get really really good at what you do.M: Sure.W: I thought one interesting thing in the video was the idea of passion being so important and that people who really love what they do. Of course youre going to want to work harder and put the time and effort into it. And the funny thing is that if you love what you do and are really passionate about it and work really hard, the money kind of comes automatically.Q5. What are the speakers mainly talking about?A) When luck plays a role.B) What determines success.C) Whether practice makes perfect.D) How important natural talent is.[答案】[B]Q6.

What is the chief point the TED Talks video makes?Luck rarely contributes to a person’s success.B) One must have natural talent to be successful.C) One should always be ready to seize opportunities.D) Practice is essential to becoming good at something.[答案】[D]Q8. What does the woman think is the funny thing in the TED Talks video?A) Putting time and effort into fun things is profitable.B) People who love what they do care little about money.C) Being passionate about work can make one wealthy.D) People in need of money work hard automatically.[答案】[C]文档内容到此结束,欢迎大家下载、修改、丰富并分享给更多有需要的人。

2022年六月大学英语六级考试真题听力
2022年六月大学英语六级考试真题听力The June 2022 College English Test Level 6 (CET-6) listening section was considered by many students to be challenging yet fair. The listening test included a variety of questions, such as multiple-choice, sentence completion, and dialogue comprehension. In this article, we will analyze some of the questions that appeared on the test and provide tips on how to improve your listening skills for future exams.One of the questions on the CET-6 listening test asked students to identify the main idea of a lecture on climate change. This question required students to listen carefully to the speaker's main points and understand the overall message of the lecture. To improve your ability to answer this type of question, it is essential to practice listening to academic lectures on various topics and take notes on the main ideas and key points.Another question on the listening test tested students' ability to understand details from a conversation between two people. In this question, students had to listen for specific information, such as dates, names, and locations mentioned in the dialogue. To excel in this type of question, it is important to focus on key details while listening and train your ears to pick up specific information quickly and accurately.Furthermore, the CET-6 listening test also included questions that required students to make inferences based on the information presented in the audio. These questions tested students' critical thinking and deductive reasoning skills, as they had to draw conclusions from the dialogue or lecture they heard. To improve your ability to answer inference questions, it is crucial to practice listening to a variety of audio materials and actively engage with the content by asking yourself questions and making predictions.Overall, the June 2022 CET-6 listening test challenged students to demonstrate their listening comprehension skills across a range of question types. To improve your performance on future exams, it is essential to practice listening to a variety of English audio materials regularly, such as podcasts, TED talks, and academic lectures. Additionally, focusing on key details, practicing note-taking, and honing your critical thinking skills will help you excel in the listening section of the CET-6 exam. With dedication and persistence, you can improve your listening skills and achieve success on the CET-6 exam and beyond.。

How did the woman student respond to her way of teaching English?25. What does the woman say about her stage fright?Section B Short PassagesPassage OneIn January 1989, the Community of European Railways presented their proposal for a high speed pan-European train network, extending from Sweden to Sicily and from Portugal to Poland by the year 2023. If their proposal becomes a reality, it will revolutionize train travel in Europe. Journeys between major cities will take half the timethey take today. Brussels will be only one and half hours from Paris. The quickest way to get from Paris to Frankfurt, from Barcelona to Madrid will be by train, not plane.When the network is complete, it will integrate three types of railway line, totally new high-speed lines, with trains operatingits speeds of 300kms per hour; upgraded lines, which allow for speeds up to 200 to 225 kms per hour and existing lines, for local connections and distribution of freight. If business people can choose between a 3-hour train journey from city center to citycenter and 1-hour flight, they'll choose the train, said anexecutive travel consultant. They won't go by plane anymore. If you calculate flight time, check in and travel to and from the airport, you’ll find almost no difference and if your plane arrives late due to bad weather or air traffic jams or strikes, then the train passengers will arrive at their destination first.Since France introduced the first 260-km per hour high speed train service between Paris and Lyons in 1981, the trains have achieved higher and higher speeds. On many routes, airlines have lost up to90 percent of their passengers to high speed trains. If peopleaccept the community of European Railways’ plan, the 21st centurywill be the new age of the train.Questions 26-29 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What is the proposal presented by the Community of the European Railways?27. What will happen when the proposal becomes a reality?28. Why will business people prefer a 3-hour train journey to a 1-hour flight?29. When did France introduce the first high speed train service?Passage TwoWestern doctors are beginning to understand what traditional healers have always known that the body and the mind are inseparable. Until recently, modern urban physicians heal the body, psychiatrists the mind and priests the soul. However, the medical world is now paying more attention to holistic medicine, which is an approach based on a belief that people’s state of mind can make them sick or speed the recovery from sickness.Several studies show that the effectiveness of a certain drug often depends on the patients expectations of it. For example, in onerecent study, psychiatrists at a major hospital try to see how patients could be made calm. They divided them into two groups; one group was given a drug while the other group received a harmless substance instead of medicine without their knowledge. Surprisingly, more patients in the second group showed the desired effects than those in the first group.In study after study, there is a positive reaction in almost one third of the patients taking harmless substances. How is this possible? How can such a substance have an effect on the body? Evidence from a 1997 study at the University of California showsthat several patients who receive such substances were able to produce their own natural drug, that is, as they took the substance, their brains released natural chemicals that act like a drug. Scientists theorize that the amount of these chemicals released by a person’s brain quite possibly indicates how much faith the person has in his or her doctor.Questions 30-32 are based on the passage you have just heard.30. According to the speaker, what are western doctors beginning to understand?31. What does the recent study at a major hospital seem to prove?32. What evidence does the 1997 study of the University ofCalifornia produce?Passage ThreeSo we’ve already talked a bit about the growth of extreme sport s like rock-climbing. As psychologists, we need to ask ourselves “Why is this person doing this?”, “Why do people take these risks and put themselves in danger when they don’t have to?” One commontrait among risk-takers is that they enjoy strong feelings or sensations. We call this trait “sensation seeking”. A sensation-seeker is someone who is always looking for new sensations. What else do we know about sensation seekers? Well, as I said, sensation-seekers like strong emotions. You can see this trait in many parts of a person’s life not just in extreme sports. For example, many sensation seekers enjoy hard rock music. They like the loud sound and strong emotions of the songs. Similarly, sensation-seekers enjoy frightening horror movies. They like the feeling of being scared and horrified while watching the movie. This feeling is even strongerfor extreme sports where the person faces real danger. Sensation-seekers feel that danger is really exciting. In addition, sensation-seekers like new experiences that force them to push their personal limits. For them, repeating the same things everyday is boring. Manysensation-seekers choose jobs that involve risk, such as starting a new business or being an Emergency Room doctor. These jobs are different everyday, s o they never know what will happen. That’s why many sensation-seekers also like extreme sports. When you do rock-climbing, you never know what will happen. The activity is always new and different.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you’ve just heard.33. According to the speaker, what is a common trait among risk-takers?34. What do sensation-seekers find boring?35. What is the speaker’s profession?Section CCompound DictationIf you are like most people, you’ve indulged in fake listenin g many times. You go to history class, sitting in the third row, and look squarely at the instructor as she speaks, but your mind is far away, floating in the clouds of pleasant daydreams. Occasionally, you comeback to earth. The instructor writes an important term on the chalkboard and you dutifully copy it in your notebook. Every once in a while the instructor makes a witty remark causing others in the class to laugh; you smile politely, pretending that you’ve heard the remark and found it mildly humorous. You have a vague sense of guilt that you aren’t paying close attention, but you tell yourself that any material you miss can be picked up from a friend’s notes. Besides, the instructor is talking about road construction in ancient Rome and nothing could be more boring. So back you go into your private little world. Only later do you realize you’ve missed important information for a test. Fake listening may be easily exposed, since many speakers are sensitive to facial cues and can tell if you are merely pretending to listen. Your blank expression and far-away look in your eyes are the cues that betray your inattentiveness. Even if you are not exposed, there is another reason to avoid fakery. It’s easy for this behavior to become a habit. For some people, the habit is so deeply-rooted that they automatically start daydreaming when the speaker begins talking on something complex or uninteresting. As a result, they miss lots of valuable information.。

英语六级2022年9月考试真题第一套听力全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1My Big English Test Adventure!Hi! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. I just took a really big English test called the TEM-8. The listening part was super hard but I'll tell you all about it!The first thing we had to listen to was something about some scientists studying stars. There were lots of big words I didn't know like "celestial bodies" and "solar systems". I tried my best to listen carefully though. The guy talking said there are way more stars than we can even see! Billions and billions more. That's just crazy to think about. I love looking at the stars at night but I had no idea there were that many.After that, there was a conversation between a student and a professor. The student was asking about doing some kind of research project. The professor said he would be the student's mentor and gave him some advice. He told the student to come up with three topics he was interested in by next week. I couldn'tbelieve how patient the professor sounded! If I brought that much work home, my parents would go nuts.The next recording was some lady giving a presentation about the history of poker. I didn't know what poker was at first, but she explained that it's some kind of card game that people gamble on. It was actually pretty interesting learning how it started out in the Old West in America and how popular it got over time. The lady talked super fast though, so I had a hard time keeping up with everything she said. I just tried to listen for the main points.Then after that, we heard a few more conversations. One was between roommates talking about cleaning their apartment. Another one was between a guy and a librarian about getting access to some online journals. The librarian seemed really nice and gave lots of details on how to log into the system. If our school librarian was that helpful, I'd actually go to the library more!Probably the hardest part was this long lecture at the end about the pharmaceutical industry. The professor was using all these huge medical words that went completely over my head. But from what I could understand, he was talking about how companies develop and test new drugs before they can sell them.It costs like a bazillion dollars apparently! No wonder my mom complains about how expensive her medicine is.There were a couple other conversations too, but those were the main things I remember. Overall, I think I did...okay? A lot of it was just too advanced and academic for a kid like me. But I studied really hard and gave it my best effort. Hopefully I did well enough to make my English teacher proud!Listening to all that grown-up talk for two hours was honestly kind of boring at times. But I'm glad I got to experience what a big important test like that is like. English is my favorite subject and I want to be really good at it. This was awesome practice for when I'm older and have to take huge tests like this for real.Tests might be a drag, but learning is fun! Especially learning English so I can enjoy cool movies, books, and songs even more. I'm going to keep working hard so I can understand everything perfectly one day. Who knows, maybe I'll even be the one giving lectures about fancy things when I grow up!Well, that's all I've got to report on my TEM-8 listening adventure. Thanks for reading, friends! I'm off to watch some cartoons and relax after that mental marathon. See ya!篇2My Adventure at the ZooHi everyone! My name is Timmy and I want to share with you my amazing adventure at the zoo. Last Sunday, my family and I went to the City Zoo. It was the best day ever!First, we saw the lions. They were so big and strong. They had beautiful golden fur and were taking a nap under a shady tree. The zookeeper told us that lions are the kings of the jungle and they sleep a lot during the day. I wish I could nap as much as them!Next, we visited the monkey enclosure. The monkeys were swinging from tree to tree and making funny faces. They were so playful! I giggled when one of them stuck out its tongue at me. The zookeeper said monkeys are very clever and love to imitate people. I tried to imitate them too, but it was quite difficult!After that, we went to the giraffe area. Giraffes have really long necks, and they can reach the leaves on tall trees. It was funny to watch them eat! The zookeeper explained that giraffes have a special blue tongue to protect them from the sun. Isn't that cool?The highlight of my day was the dolphin show. We sat near the pool and watched as the dolphins flipped and jumped out of the water. They were so graceful and smart. I wished I could swim like them. The zookeeper told us that dolphins are very friendly and love to play with humans. I waved at them, and one of the dolphins splashed water at me. It was so much fun!Finally, we visited the penguin house. Penguins are my favorite animals because they are so cute and funny. They waddled around on the ice and slid down into the water. I laughed so hard when one of them slipped and fell on its belly. The zookeeper told us that penguins are excellent swimmers and their black and white feathers help them blend in with the water.I wished I could join them in their icy playground.At the end of the day, I was tired but happy. The zoo was an amazing place with so many incredible animals. I learned a lot about different species and how important it is to protect them. I can't wait to go back to the zoo again and have more adventures with the animals!That's all for now. I hope you enjoyed hearing about my day at the zoo. Remember, it's important to love and protect animals, no matter how big or small they are. Take care and see you soon!Love,Timmy篇3The Big Listening Test for the Grown-UpsLast month, I went with my older sister to the place where she takes her big tests. She's in college and was going to take this huge listening test called the "College English Test Band 6." It sounded really important and difficult!When we got there, I saw so many older kids, probably around my sister's age, gathering outside a big building. They all looked pretty nervous, clutching their pencils and papers. I could tell this was a big deal!My sister told me I had to be really quiet once we went inside. We found the room where her test was going to happen. It was this massive lecture hall with tons of desks and chairs. The walls were totally bare, with no pictures or anything. It felt a bit like a prison!After a few minutes, a strict-looking lady came to the front and started giving instructions over a microphone. She explained all the rules for the test in a very serious tone. No talking, no cheating, no cell phones. I gulped. This seemed intense!Then she started the test recordings over the loudspeakers. At first, it just sounded like some people talking about random things. But my sister had her pencil moving at lightning speed, writing down notes. I tried to follow along, but it was super hard with all the big vocabulary words I didn't know.The recordings kept playing, one after another. Conversations, lectures, news reports - it was like getting a taste of the whole English-speaking world! After about 30 minutes, the first section was over. Phew, I thought, at least there's a break. But nope! They just plowed right into the next section without stopping.This cycle continued for what felt like forever. My brain was turning to mush trying to comprehend it all. How did my sister keep up with her furious pencil-scribbling? These college kids are seriously impressive!By the time it finished, I was mentally drained. And apparently that was just the listening portion! My sister still had to go take the reading, writing, and other sections later. No wonder she studies so hard.On the way home, I asked her how she thought she did. She just shrugged and said, "Eh, it was okay I guess. Probably failed the whole thing though." I couldn't believe it! If that wasconsidered failing, then I have absolutely no chance when I'm older.The College English Test 6 is no joke. Hats off to my sister and all her fellow test-takers for being able to muscle through that listening marathon. I've decided that the university life is not for me - I'll just become a lumberjack instead!篇4The Big Kid TestHey guys! I have to tell you about this super hard test I took last weekend. It was called the College English Test Band 6, but I'm just a kid in elementary school so I'm not sure why they made me take a college test. Maybe they thought since I'm so smart that I could handle it? I don't know, but it was really really difficult.The first part was just listening to people talking. That doesn't sound too bad, right? Well, it was way harder than I thought it would be. They played all these conversations and lectures and stuff, and then asked me questions about what the people said. The conversations were about things like making restaurant reservations, checking into a hotel, and scheduling a meeting. Boring grown-up stuff like that.Then there were these lectures that professors gave about topics like geology, economics, and environmental science. I could kind of follow along at first when they were introducing the topic. But then they started using all these big fancy words that I didn't understand at all. I tried my best to listen carefully, but it felt like they were speaking another language or something.After each conversation or lecture, they would ask 3-5 questions about the details of what was said. Things like "What was the man's reason for canceling the reservation?" or "According to the professor, what are the three main types of sedimentary rocks?" I barely understood half of what the speakers were talking about, so a lot of the questions just went right over my head.I'm usually a really good test taker and I can focus for a long time. But honestly, my brain got kinda fried after the first 30 minutes of listening so intensely. By the end of that section, which lasted like an hour, my head was spinning! I could feel myself zoning out during some of the later conversations. Knowing me though, I probably still got most of the easy ones right by using context clues and my awesome listening skills.The second part of the test was reading comprehension. Now that was more my speed! I'm a total bookworm and I loooove reading all kinds of books and stories. For this section, there were a few longer passages about topics like art, technology, and environmental issues. Each one was maybe 800 words long.After reading each passage, there were some questions testing if you understood the main points, details, vocabulary in context, making inferences, and stuff like that. Compared to the crazy difficult listening section, the reading part felt like a walk in the park for a pro reader like me. I bet I got most, if not all, of those questions right. Nailed it!By the time I finished the whole test, I was mentally exhausted. All that intense focusing and critical thinking for two and half hours straight made my brain feel like an overworked muscle. I'm used to my school tests only lasting an hour at most. This college English test was no joke!When I saw my parents after, the first thing I said was "That was wayyyy harder than I expected!" I could tell they felt a little bad for letting me take such an advanced test at my age. But I was really proud of myself for toughing it out and not giving up. I like a good challenge!I'm honestly not sure how well I did overall on the College English Test Band 6. Parts of it, especially the listening, were just comically difficult for a 10-year-old. But I certainly tried my best and learned a ton in the process. Maybe I'll get to take it again when I'm actually in college. Either way, it was a really good experience that helped me grow as a student and test taker.Whew, I'm tired just from talking about it! I think I'll go take a nap now. Testing is hard work! Let me know if you guys have ever had to take a crazy difficult test like that. We can swap war stories! Later days!篇5The Big English Listening TestHi friends! Today I'm gonna tell you all about the big English listening test I took a little while ago. It was called the CET-6 and it happened in September 2022. CET stands for College English Test and the 6 means it's a really hard one - the highest level! I'm just a kid but I like to take tests to challenge myself. This one was super duper difficult but I tried my best.The test had lots of different listening sections. First up was some conversations between different people. They would be talking about normal stuff like going shopping, asking fordirections, or making plans. After each little talk, there were some questions asking what the people said or what they were doing. I had to listen very carefully to get those right!Next there were some longer lectures and talks. One was about black holes from a science professor. I didn't understand a lot of the hard words she used but I tried to get the main idea. Another speech was from a businessman talking about marketing strategies for a new product. That one was a little easier for me to follow.Then we moved onto some really long recordings of radio shows, interviews, and even an English movie clip! These stories went on for a long time and the questions after asked for lots of details. Who said what to whom? What were their different opinions? Summarize the main points in one sentence. Phew, it was hard work keeping everything straight in my little brain!There were also some weird sounds we had to identify, like a microwave beeping or someone shuffling papers. I'm still just learning to identify all those everyday noises in English. And another section had recordings with blanks that we had to fill in with the missing word or words we heard. Like mad lib games, but way harder!The whole thing took almost 3 hours from start to finish! My ears were ringing by the end from concentrating so hard. There were over 50 questions and answers to circle on the big test booklet. I just put my head down and did my best, skipping over anything too confusing.When it was finally over, I felt like a wet noodle. Listening in another language for that long is exhausting, even if it's fun! I don't know my score yet but I'm proud I made it through such a crazy difficult test. An English listening marathon is no joke, even for a grown-up!Well, that's my big long story about the CET-6 listening exam from back in September. If you ever want to prove how good you are at understanding English out loud, you should definitely try taking it too. Just make sure you get plenty of rest first - you're gonna need it! Okay friends, see you next time! Study hard!篇6Hello friends! Today I want to tell you all about the listening part of the big English test I took a little while ago. It was the English Level 6 exam in September 2022. The listening section had some really cool stuff but also some really hard parts too!It started off with some conversations between different people. There were conversations at a bookstore, at a coffee shop, and even at an airport! The airport one was kind of confusing because there were all these announcements over the loudspeaker in the background. But I tried my best to listen carefully to what the people were actually saying to each other.After the conversations, there were some longer talks and lectures. One of them was about marine biology and the different creatures that live in the ocean. That one was pretty interesting! The lecturer talked about whales and dolphins and sharks. She explained how their bodies are designed to allow them to swim really fast and dive down deep. My favorite part was when she talked about the giant squid - those things are huge and scary looking!Another lecture was on the history of comic books and superhero stories. The professor talked about some of the earliest superhero characters like Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. He explained why they became so popular back in the 1930s and how the comic book industry grew from there. It was fun learning about the origins of characters I'm familiar with from movies and TV shows nowadays.Some of the other lectures were a bit harder for me to follow. There was one on economic principles that used a lot of big vocabulary words I didn't know. And another one was all about interpretations of ancient Greek philosophy - that one went way over my head! I'll have to study more if I want to understand concepts like that in the future.Towards the end, there were some recordings about the pros and cons of different methods of teaching math to elementary school kids. As a student myself, that topic was pretty interesting and relevant to me. Some of the experts talked about the advantages of hands-on learning with physical objects. Others preferred more of a theory-based approach, working through formulas and equations.Overall, while parts of the listening section were pretty challenging, I felt like I learned a lot of cool new information across many different topics. Marine biology, comic book history, economic ideas - those are all subjects I didn't know much about before. And for the parts I couldn't completely understand, I'll just have to study harder and build up my English skills over time.Tests are never easy, but opportunities to learn like this listening exam make the hard work worthwhile. I'm proud ofmyself for making it all the way through and picking up so much knowledge along the way. Wish me luck for the next English exam I take - I'll keep practicing my listening abilities so I can understand even more!。

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 the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.When global warming finally came, it stuck with a vengeance (异乎寻常地). In some regions, temperatures rose several degrees in less than a century Sea levels shot up nearly 400 feet, flooding coastal settlements and forcing people to migrate inland. Deserts spread throughout the world as vegetation shifted drastically in North America, Europe and Asia. After driving many of the animals around them to near extinction, people were forced to abandon their old way of life for a radically new survival strategy that resulted in widespread starvation and disease. The adaptation was farming: the global-warming crisis that gave rise to it happened more than l0,000 years ago.As environmentalists convene in rio de Janeiro this week to ponder the global climate of the future, earth scientists are in the midst of a revolution in understanding how climate has changed in the past -- and how those changes have transformed human existence. Researchers have begun to piece together an illuminating picture of the powerful geo1ogical and astronomical forces that have combined to change the planet”s environment from hot to cold, wet to dry and back again over a time Period stretching back hundreds of millions of years.Most important, scientists are beginning to realize that the climatic changes have had a major impact on the evolution of the human species. New research now suggests that climate shifts have played a key role in nearly every significant turning point in human evolution: from the dawn of Primates 灵(长类动物) some 65 million years ago to human ancestors rising up to walk on two legs, from the huge expansion of the human brain to the rise of agriculture. Indeed, the human history has not been merely touched by global climate change, some scientists argue, it has in some instances been driven by it.The new research has profound implications for theenvironmental summit in Rio. Among other things, the findings demonstrate that dramatic climate change is nothing new for planet Earth. The benign (宜人的) global environment that has existed over the past l0,00O years - during which agriculture, writing, cities and most other features of civilization appeared -- is a mere bright spot in a much large pattern of widely varying climate over the ages. In fact the pattern of climate change in the past reveals that Earth” s climate will almost certainly go through dramatic changes in the future -- even without the influence of human activity 2l. Farming emerged as a survival strategy because man had been obliged --A)to give up his former way of lifeB)to leave the coastal areas.C)to follow the ever-shifting vegetationD)to abandon his original settlement.22.Earth scientists have come to understand that climate --A)is going trough a fundamental changeB)has been getting warmer for l0, 000 yearsC)will eventually change from hot to cold.D)has gone through Periodical changes23.Scientists believe that human evolution -A)has seldom been accompanied by climatic changesB)has exerted little influence on climatic changesC)has large1y been effected by climatic changesD)has had a major impact on climatic changes24.Evidence of past climatic changes indicates that .A)human activities have accelera ted changes of Earth ” s environmentB)Earth ”s environment will remain mild despite human interferenceC)Earth”s climate is bound to change significantly in the futureD)Earth”s climate is unlikely to undergo substantial changes in the future25.The message the author wishes to convey in the passage is that .A)human civilization remains glorious though it is affected by climatic changesB)mankind is virtually helpless in the face of the dramatic changes of climateC)man has to limit his activities to slow down the global warming processD)human civilization will continue to develop in spite of the changes of nature。
