全国英语六级阅读理解完形填空模拟练习全国英语六级阅读理解完形填空模拟练习Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(任意的') from the population,it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth playsa part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.26. Which of these sentences best describes the writer's point in Paragraph 1?A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.B. Intelligence is developed by the environment.C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid.D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.27. It is suggested in this passage that_______.A. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceB. close relations usually have similar intelligenceC. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceD. people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence28. Brothers and sisters are likely to_______.A. have similar intelligenceB. have different intelligenceC. go to the same universityD. go to the same factory29. In Paragraph 1, the word "surroundings" means_______.A. intelligenceB. lifeC. environmentsD. housing30. The best title for this article would be_______.A. On IntelligenceB. What Intelligence MeansC. We Are Born with IntelligenceD. Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence参考答案26. D 27. B 28. A 29. C 30. A。

全国英语六级考试完形填空模拟练习附答案全国英语六级考试完形填空模拟练习附答案An industrial society, especially one as centralized and concentrated as that of Britain, is heavily dependant on certain essential services: for instance, electricity supply, water, rail and road transport, the harbors. The area of dependency has widened to include removing rubbish, hospital and ambulance services, and, as the economy develops, central computer and information services as well. If any of these services ceases to operate, the whole economic system is in danger.It is this interdependency of the economic system that makes the power of trade unions such an important issue. Single trade unions have the ability to cut off many economic blood supplies. This can happen more easily in Britain than in some other countries, in part because the labor force is highly organized. About 55 per cent of British workers belong to unions, compared to under a quarter in the United States. For historical reasons, Britain's unions have tended to develop along trade and occupational lines, rather than on an industry-by-industry basis, which makes wage policy, democracy in industry and the improvement of procedures for fixing wage levels difficult to achieve.There are considerable strains and tensions in the trade union movement, some of them arising from their outdated and inefficient structure. Some unions have lost many members because of industrial changes. Others are involved in arguments about who should represent workers in new trades. Unions for skilled trades are separate from general unions, which means that different levels of wages for certain jobs are often a source of badfeeling between unions. In traditional trades which are being pushed out of existence by advancing technologies, unions can fight for their members' disappearing jobs to the point where the jobs of other union's members are threatened or destroyed. The printing of newspapers both in the United States and in Britain has frequently been halted by the efforts of printers to hold on to their traditional highly-paid jobs.21. Why is the question of trade union power important in Britain?A. The economy is very much interdependent.B. Unions have been established a long time.C. There are more unions in Britain than elsewhere.D. There are many essential services.22. Because of their out-of-date organization some unions find it difficult to______.A. change as industries changeB. get new members to join themC. learn new technologiesD. bargain for high enough wages23. Disagreements arise between unions because some of themA. try to win over members of other unionsB. ignore agreementsC. protect their own members at the expense of othersD. take over other union's jobs24. It is difficult to improve the procedures for fixing wage levels because______.A. some industries have no unionsB. unions are not organized according to industriesC. only 55 per cent of workers belong to unionsD. some unions are too powerful25. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. There are strains and tensions in the trade union movement.B. Some unions have lost many members.C. Some unions exist in the outdated structure.D. A higher percentage of American workers belong to unions than that of British workers.参考答案21. A 22. A 23. C 24. B 25. D。

Delivering milk to people’s homes is scarcely good business, especially when the consumer may have a choice of two or three firms 4 a single road. 5my local difficulties, however, labor troubles are not as acute as a few years ago. There are enough men prepared to make an early morning stake 6an open-air job 7 a fair measure of freedom. 8they did stop calling, women should find 9hard work to collect all the milk they need 10 self-service stores. Dairies 11that stopping deliveries in the United States resulted in falling sales.Marketing ideas have included introducing extra lines, 12dairy products, 13 the milkmen can carry to increase turnover. Already they have taken over many rounds given up by bakeries. One dairyman said: “It won’t be long 14the milkman delivers more bread than milk.” Some milkmen deliver potatoes, 15it seems as though diversification will be limited only 16the size of the vans.So the milkman is likely to remain a familiar 17, and the dairy products he sells 18change very much in this decade.

Early man probably 2 to use his voice for singing before he discovered how to make musical instruments. Very 3 he sang simple chants to go with his magic rites. (Through magic, primitive man thought he could bring rain, make the sun 4or help his crops grow.) Thus the first melodies were born.Man soon learned how to make musical instruments out of 5he found around him.He made rattles out of nuts and gourds. He blew into bones or reeds to make a 6sound. Hollow logs made excellent drums. These instruments heightened the 7man’s singing and marked the rhythm of his dances.When primitive men sang8groups, it is likely that not all the singers sang the melodies on the same 9. One singer perhaps sang his melody four or five steps higher than 10. If two or three singers 11this, several notes were sounded at the same time. Thus early man probably 12the beginnings of harmony, the sounding of several tones together.13 a very long time music was not written down. It was sung or 14from memory. One singer might teach a song or others, and they 15would sing it to their friends or teach it to their children. Of course, many changes 16into tunes this way. Man needed to find a way of writing his music down, so that it would be sung or played exactly as he had17 it. The method that man developed for writing music is called notation.Musical notation, like written language, is a 18of communication. It enables the composer to record his music in written symbols.

The productivity of workers in countries such as Japan and Germany is increasing. American machine tools, on average, are old, relatively inefficient, and rapidly being obsolete, whereas those of our petitors overseas, in parison, are newer and more efficient. We are no longer the most productive workers in the world. We are no longer the leaders in industrial innovation (革新). We are an immensely wealthy nation of educated men and women who seem to have lost sight of the fact that everything—from the simplest necessities to the finest luxuries—must be produced through our own collective hard work. We have e to expect automatic increases in our collective standard of living, but we seem to have forgotten that these increases are possible only when our productivity continues to grow.One thing that must change is the rate at which we substitute capital equipment for human labor. Simply put, our labor force has increased at a far greater rate than has our stock of capital investment. We seem to have forgotten that our past productivity gains, to a large extent, were realized from substitutions of capital for human labor. Today, 3 times as many robots are listed as capital assets by Japanese firms as by United States firms.There is no doubt that robots will bee a mon sight in American factories. Representing a new generation of technology, robots will replace factory labor much as the farm tractor replaced the horse. Robot technology has much to offer. It offers higher levels of productivity and quality at lowercosts; in promises to free men and women from the dull, repetitious toil of the factory, it is likely to have an impact on society parable to that made by the growth of puter technology.21. The word "obsolete"(Para. 1) most probably means_______.A. weakB. oldC. newD. out of date22. The author is anxious about_______.A. his people no longer taking the lead in industrial innovationB. his country no longer being a wealthy nationC. his people forgetting to raise their productivityD. his country falling behind other industrial nations23. According to the author, in his country_______.A. the proportion of labor force to capital investment is quite lowB. the growth rate of labor force should be greater than that of capital investmentC. the productivity increases should be achieved by the increases of labor forceD. capital investment should have increased more rapidly than labor force24. So far as the influence on society is concerned, _______.A. robot technology seems to be much more promising than puter technologyB. puter technology has less to offer than robot technologyC. robot technology can be pared with puter technologyD. robot technology cannot be pared with puter technology25.

" More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint (强调) his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas, and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can plish this difficult job very quickly—perhaps with a two-second glance.ways. Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others; who are known to you so you can pare the observed person's behavior with the known others' behavior, observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for, deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the person's responses to specific stimuli (刺激因素) , asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about him or her, and usingvarious strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person—question, self-disclosures, and so on.Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise. You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him. If we accept the idea that we won't ever fully know another person, it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way of accurate knowledge such as secrets and deceptions. It will also keep us from being too surprised or shocked by seemingly inconsistent behavior. Ironically, those things that keep us from knowing another person too well(e. g. secrets and deceptions) may be just as important to the development of a satisfying relationship as those things that enable us to obtain accurate knowledge about a person (e. g. disclosures and truthful statement).21. According to the passage, if we perceive a person, we are likely to be interested inA. what he wearsB. how tall he isC. how happy he isD. what color he dyes his hair22. Some people are often surprised by what other people do. According to Berger, that is mainly because_______.A. some people are more emotional than othersB. some people are not aware of the fact that we will never pletely know another personC. some people are sensitive enough to sense the change of other people's attitudesD. some people choose to keep to themselves23. We may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him because_______.A. we don't accept the idea that we might never fully know another personB. we often get information in a casual and inexact wayC. we pay more attention to other people's motivations and emotions 62D. we often have face-to-face conversation with him24. There are things that we find preventing us from knowing others. These things areA. disclosuresB. deceptionsC. stimuliD. interactions25.

Taken individually, words have (6) -- meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. (7) --, however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to (8) -- words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over (9) -- you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which (10) -- down the speed of reading is vocalization - sounding each word either orally or mentally as (11) -- reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an (12), which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed.

The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, (14) -- word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first (15) -- is sacrificed for speed.

When humans first (1)--, they were like newborn children, unable to use this (2) -- tool. Yet once language developed, the possibilities for human kind’s future (3) -- and cultural growth increased.Many linguists believe that evolution is (4) -- for our ability to produce and use language. They (5) -- that our highly evolved brain provides us (6) -- an innate language ability not found in lower (7) --. Proponents of thisinnateness theory say that our (8) -- for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, (9) -- a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore there are critical (10) -- times for language development.Current (11) -- of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. (12) --, more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in (13) -- grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being (14) -- to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the (15) -- of their first language have become firmly fixed.(16) -- some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been (17) -- from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that (18) -- with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language (19) -- than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. (20) --, children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their child's language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.1.A.generated B. evolved C. born D. originated2.A.valuable B. appropriate C. convenient D. favorite3.A.attainments B. feasibility C. entertainments D. evolution4.A.essential B. available C. reliable D. responsible5.A.confirm B. inform C. claim D. convince6.A.for B. from C. of D. withanizations B. organisms C. humans D. children8.A.potential B. performance C. preference D. passion9.A.as B. just as C. like D. unlike10.A.ideological B. biological C. social D. psychological11.A.reviews B. reference C. reaction D. recommendation12.A.In a word B.

(1) -- in the 1900s most American towns and cities had a Main Street. Main Street was always in the heart of a town. This street was (2) -- on both sides with many (3) -- businesses. Here, shoppers walked into stores to look at all sorts of merchandise: clothing, furniture, hardware, groceries. (4) --, some shops offered (5) --.These shops included drugstores, restaurants, shoe-repair stores, and barber or hairdressing shops. (6) -- in the 1950s, a change began to (7) --.Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street (8) -- too few parking places were (9) -- shoppers. Because the streets were crowded, merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces (10) -- the city limits. Open space is what their car-driving customers needed. And open space is what they got (11) -- the first shopping centre was built. Shopping centres, or rather malls, (12) -- as a collection of small new stores (13) -- crowded city centres. (14) -- by hundreds of free parking space, customers were drawn away from (15) -- areas to outlying malls. And the growing (16) -- of shopping centres led (17) -- to the building of bigger and better-stocked stores.

Such words may be called ―popular‖, since they belong to the people (8) -- and are not the exclusive (9) -- of a limited class. On the other hand, our language (10) -- a multitude of words which are comparatively (11) -- used in ordinary conversation. Their meanings are known to every educated person, but there is little (12) -- to use them at home or in the market-place. Our (13) -- acquaintance with them comes not from our mother's (14) -- or from the talk of our school-mates, (15) -- from books that we read, lectures that we (16) --, or the more (17) -- conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular (18) -- in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual (19) -- of everyday life.
