2020年7月英语六级真题及参考答案【完整版】作文第一套Directions：For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying Beauty of the soul is the essential beauty. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.参考译文：In this rapidly developing society，what we persue has never been more abundant than ever before. We care about the food safety，the money we can earn，the health of the people around us and the apperence of us，namely beauty. Talking about beauty，ideas may differ from person to person. Among all the elements of beauty that modern people attach importance to，I reckon that beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.Looking around，we may find many facts which can relect the value in the saying. Take Lihong as an example，she is not the traditionally typical youngster who would be considered beautiful. However，she keeps doing good routinely and insists in helping those in need. When mentioned，Lihong is always the exemplary model praised by everybody. To many acquaintances of hers，they think she is one of the most beautiful girls they' ve ever met. In the case of Lihong，beauty of the soul is more essentially valued than that of her appearence.To conclude，it is not the fashionable hairstyle，not the ex- pensive clothes we wear，but beauty of our soul that deter- mines how people see us. This reminds us agian of the value that beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.选词填空第一套26.L. realms27.C.heavily28.H. mastering29.B. fatigue30.E. hospitalized31.J. obsessed32.F. labeled33.N. ruin34.K. potential35.A. contrary信息匹配第一套How Telemedicine Is Transforming Healthcare36.D段落第一句None of this is to say that telemedicine37.H段落第一句Many health plans and employers have rushed38.E段落第一句What’smore，foralltherapidgrowth39.B段落第一句Doctors are Linking up with40.K段落第一句Who pays for the services?41.0段落第一句Todate，17stateshavejoined pass42.G段落第一句Do patients trade quality for convenience?43.F段落第一句Some critics also question whether44.1段落第一句But critics worry that such45.N段落第一句Is the state-by-state regulatory system仔细阅读第一套46-50 (Sleeplessness)46.C They are deeply impressed by Danielle Steel’s dailywork schedule.47.A She could serve as an example of industriousness.48.

2020年六级真题及答案听力Part II Listening Comprehension (25 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear two long conversations. At the end of each conversation, you will hear some questions. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D) . Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet lwith a single line through the centre. Conversation OneM: Tonight, we have a very special guest (1) Mrs. Anna Sanchez is a three time Olympic champion and author of the new book To the Edge Mrs. Sanchez, thank you for joining us.W: Thank you for having me. M: Let' s start with your book. What does the title To the Edge mean? What are you referring to?W: (2) The book is about how science and technology has helped push humans to the edge of their physical abilities. I argue that in the past 20 years, we have had the best athletes the world has ever seen.M: But is this a fair comparison? How do you know how, say, a football player from 50 years ago would compare to one today?W: Well, you are right. That comparison would be perhaps impossible to make. But the point is more about our knowledge today of human biochemistry, nutrition, and mechanics. (3) I believe that while our bodies have not changed in thousands of years, what has changed is the scientific knowledge. This has allowed athletes to push the limits of what was previously thought possible.M: That's interesting. Please tell us more about these perceived limits. W: The world is seen sports records being broken that could only be broken with the aid of technology. Whether this be the speed of a tennis serve or the fastest time in a hundred meter dash or 200 meter swimming race.M: (4) Is there any concern that technology is giving some athletes an unfair advantage over others?W: That is an interesting question. And one that has to be considered very carefully. Skis, for example, went from being made of wood to a metal alloy which allows for better control and faster speed. There is no stopping technological progress. But z as I said, each situation should be considered carefully on a case by case basis.Question 1: What do we learn about Anna Sanchez?Question 2: What is the woman' s book mainly about?Question 3: What has changed in the past thousands of years?Question 4: What is the man' s concern about the use of technology in sports competitions?Conversation TwoW: F ve worked in international trade all my life. My father did so to be for me. So 1 guess you could say it runs in the family.M:What products have you worked with?W:AII sorts, really. I' ve imported textiles f machinery, toys, solar panels, all kinds of things over the years. Trends and demand come and go. (5) So one needs to be very flexible to succeed in this industry. M:I see what goods are you trading now?W:I now import furniture from China into Italy and foods from Italy into China.(6)1 even use the same container.It' s a very efficient way of conducting trade.M:The same container. You mean you own a 40 foot cargo container?W:Yeah f that' s right. (7)1 have a warehouse in Genoa over Italy and another in Shanghai. I source mid century modern furniture from different factories in China. It1 s very good value for money. I collet it all in my warehouse and then dispatch it Io my other warehouse in Italy. Over there I do the same, but with Italian foods instead of furniture, things like pasta r cheese, wine, chocolates. And I send all that to my warehouse in China in the same freight container I use for the furniture. M:So I presume you sell both lines of products wholesale in each respective country. w:Of course. I possess a network of clients and partners in both countries. That' s the main benefit of having done this for so long. I r ve made great business contacts over time.M:How many times do you ship?W: 1 did 12 shipments last year, 18 this year, and I hope to grow to around 25 nextyear. Thar z s both ways there and back again. Demand for authentic Italian food in China is growing rapidly. And similarly, sales of affordable^ yet stylish wooden furniture are also increasing in Italy. (8)Furniture is marginally more profitable, mostly because it enjoys lower customs duties.Question 5: What docs the woman think is required to be successful in international trade?Question 6: What does the woman say is special about her way of doing trade? Question 7: What docs the woman have in both Italy and China?Question 8: What does the woman say makes furniture marginally more profitable? Section BDirections: In this section, you will hear two passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some ques- tions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D) . Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the center.Passage OneToo many people view their jobs as as day prison, which they are paroled every Friday, says Joel Goodman, founder of the humor project a humor consulting group in Saratoga springs, New York. (9) Humor unlocks the office prison because it lets adults bring. some of their childlike spirit to the job, according to Howard Pollio, professor of psychology at the university of Tennessee Knoxville. And office with humor breaks is an office with satisfied and productive employees.(10) Polioconducted a study that proved humor can help workers Excel at routine production tasks. Employees perform better when they have fun. In large corporations with a hierarchy of power, there is often no outlet for stress. Every company needs underground ways of poking fun at the organization, says Lynn and Mark, a speaker on workplace humor for saint Mary' s health center in saint Louis.Kodak Rochester, New York branch, discovered a way for its 20000 employees to uncork their bottled up resentments. There 1000 square foot humor room features a toy store. Among the rooms, many stress reducing gadgets, the main attraction is a boss doll with detachable arms and legs. (11) Employees can take the doll apart as long a they put its arms and legs buck in place.Sandy Cohan, owner of a graphic print production business, created the quote board to document the bizarre phrases people say when under strict deadlines, when you' re on distress, you say stupid things, says Cohen. Now we just look at each other and say that' s one for the quote board.Questions9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 9. What docs the passage say about humor in the workplace?Question 10. What does the study by Howard Polio show?Question 11. What can codex employees do in the humor room?Passage Two(12)Public interest was aroused by the latest discovery of a changed gene in obese mice The news was made known by Rockefeller university geneticist Jeffrey Friedman. The researchers believe this gene influences development of a hormone that tellsorganism how fat or full it is (13)Those with he changed gene may not sense when they have eaten enough or if they have sufficient fatty tissue. and thus can' t tell when to stop eating.The researchers also reported finding a gene nearly identical to the mouse obesity gene in humans. The operation of this gene in humans has not yet been demonstrated, however. (14)Still professionals like university of Vermont psychologist Eyster Ross Bloom reacted enthusiastically. This research indicates that people really are born with a tendency to have a certain weight just as they are to have a particular skin color or height. Actually, behavioral geneticists believe that less than half of the total weight variation is programmed in the genes, while height is almost entirely genetically determined. Whatever role genes play Americans are getting fatter.A survey by the center for disease control found that obesity has increased greatly over the last 10 years. (15)Such rapid change underlines the role of environmental factors like the abundance of rich foods in Americans overeating. The center for disease control has also found that teens are far less physically active than they were even a decade ago. Excepting that weight is predetermined, can relieve guilt for overweight people. But people' s belief that they cannot control their weight can itself contribute tO obesity.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Question 12. What does the speaker say has aroused public interest?Question 13. What do we learn about the changed gene?Question 14. What does university of Vermont psychologist Eyster Ross Bloom say? Question 15. What accounts for Americans obesity according to a survey by the center for disease ontrol?Section CDirections: In this section, you will hear three recordings of lectures or talks followed by three or four ques- tions. The recordings will be played only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D) . Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the center.Recording OneQualities of a relationship such as openness, compassion and mental stimulation, or of concern to most of us regardless of sex. But judging from the questionnaire response, they are more important to women than to men. Asked to consider the ingredients of close friendship, women rated these qualities above all others. (16) Men assigned a lower priority to them in favor of similarity and interest, Selected by 77% of men and responsiveness in a crisis, chosen by 61% of male respondents, mental stimulation ranked 3rd in popularity by men as well as women was the only area of overlap. Among men, only 28% named openness as an important quality. Caring was picked by just 23%. (17) It is evident by their selections that when women speak of close friendships. they are referring to emotional factors. While men emphasized the pleasure they find in a friend' s company, that is, when a man speaks of a friend, he is likely to be talking about someone he does things with,a teammate, a fellow hobbyist, a drinking buddy. These activities are the fabric of the friendship. It is a doing relationships in which similarity in interests is the key bond. This factor was a consideration of less than 11% of women. Women opt for a warm emotional atmosphere where communication flows freely. Activity is mere background.Lastly, men, as we have seen, have serious questions about each other; s loyalty. Perhaps this is why they placed such strong emphasis on responsiveness in a crisis. Someone I can call on for help. Women, as their testimonies indicate, are generally more secure with each other and consequently are more likely to treat this issue lightly. In follow up interviews, this was confirmed numerous times. As woman after woman indicated that being there when needed was taken for granted. (18) As for the hazards of friendship, more than a few relationships have been shattered because of cutthroat competition and feelings of betrayal. This applies t both men and women, but unequally in comparison, nearly twice as many men complained about these issues as women. Further, while competition and betrayal are the main thorns to female friendship: men are plagued in almost equal amounts by two additional issues lack of frankness and a fear of appearing unmanly. Obviously, for a man, a good friendship is hard to find.Question 16: What quality do men value most concerning friendship according to a questionnaire esponse?Question 17: What do women refer to when speaking of close friendships?Question 18: What may threaten a friendship for both men and women?Recording Two(19) The partial skeletons of more than 20 dinosaurs and scattered bones of about 300 more have been discovered in Utah and Colorado at what is now the Dinosaur National Monument. Many of the best specimens may be seen today at museums of natural history in the larger cities of the United States, and Canada. This dinosaur pit is the largest and best preserved deposit of dinosaurs known today. (20) Many people get the idea from the mass of bones in the pit wall that some disaster, such as volcanic explosion or a sudden flood, killed a whole herd of dinosaurs in this area. This could have happened z but it probably did not.The main reasons for thinking otherwise, other scattered bones and the thickness of the deposit in other deposits where the animals were thought to have died together, the skeletons were usually complete and often all the bones were in their proper places. Rounded pieces of fossil bone have been found here. These fragments got their smooth, round shape by rolling along the stream bottom. In a mass killing, the bones would have been left on the stream or lake bottom together at the same level. But in this deposit, the bones occur throughout a zone of sandstone about 12 feet thick.The mixture of swamp dwellers and dry land types also seems to indicate that the deposit is a mixture from different places. The pit area is a large dinosaur graveyard-not a place where they died. (21) Most of the remains probably floated down eastward flowing river until they were left on a shallow sandbar. Some of them may have come from faraway dry land areas to the west. Perhaps they drowned tryingto cross a small stream, all washed away during floods. Some of the swamp dwellers may have got stuck in the very sandbar that became their grave. Others may have floated for miles before being stranded.Even today, similar events take place: When floods come in the spring, sheep, cattle, and deer are often trapped by rising waters and often drown. Their dead bodies float downstream until the flood recedes, and leaves them stranded on a bar or shore where they lie, half buried in the sand until they decay, Early travelers on the Missouri River reported that shores and bars often lined with the decaying bodies of buffalo that had died during spring floods.Question 19: Where can many of the best dinosaur specimens be found in North America? Question 20: What occurs to many people when they see the massive bones in the pit wall?Question 21: What does the speaker suggest about the large number of dinosaur bones found in the pit?Recording ThreeI would like particularly to talk about the need to develop a new style of aging in our own society. (22)Young people in this country have been accused of not caring for their parents the way they would have in the old country. And this is true. (23) But i is also true that old people have been influenced by an American ideal of independence and autonomy. So we live alone, perhaps on the verge of starvation, in time without fiends. But we arc independent. This standard American style has been forced on every ethnic group. Although there are many groups for whom the ideal isnot practical, it is a poor ideal and pursuing it docs a great deal of harm. This ideal of independence also contains a tremendous amount of unselfishness.In talking to today ' s young mothers, I have asked them what kind of grandmothers they think they are going to be. I hear devoted loving mothers say that when they are through raising their children, they have no intention of becoming grandmothers.(24) They are astonished to hear that in most of the world, throughout most of its history, families have been three or four generation-families Jiving under, the same roof. We have over-emphasized the small family uni — father, mother, small children. We think it is wonderful if grandma and grandpa, if they' re still alive, can live alone. We have reached the point where we think the only thing we can do for our children is to stay out of their way. The only thing we can do for our daughter in law is to see as little of her as possible. (25) Old people' s nursing homes, even the best one. are filled with older people who believe the only thing they can do for their children is to look cheerful when they come to visit So in the end. older people have to devote all their energies to not being a burden.We are beginning to see what a tremendous price we' ve paid for our emphasis on independence and autonomy. We' ve isolated old people and we' ve cut off the children from their grandparents. One of the reasons we have as bad a generation gap today as we do is that grandparents have stepped out. Young people are being deprived of the thing they need most: perspective to know why their parents behave so peculiarly and why their grandparents say the things they do.Question 22: What have young Americans been accused of?Question 23: What does the speaker say about old people in the United States? Question 24: What is astonishing to the young mothers interviewed by the speaker? Question 25: What does the speakers say older people try their best to do?参考答案：1-5 : ADBCB6-10 : DACAD11-15 : BADCB16-20 : ADCDB21-25 : ACDBB选词填空参考答案：26.grabbed27.disaster28.stake29.overwhelming30.eroding31..deteriorating32.stagnation33.determined34.urgent35.capacity信息匹配参考答案：36- 40 CJBAK 41-45 EMHDL36.

To put in another word, it is wise for us to seize the moment and spare no efforts to finish the current task.On the one hand, actions play a key role in the course of achieving goals. As a consequence, it is imperative that we should take prompt actions to accomplish a future aim. On the other hand, we are supposed to attach due importance to the efficiency, which exerts a critical impact on personal growth and future career. As a result, improving the efficiency is what we cannot neglect.In a word, effective and efficient actions must be taken by every individual for the sake of achieving great dreams. If we can make progress little by little, the dream will come true in the near future.翻译【真题原文】《三国演义》写于14世纪，是中国著名的历史小说。

How do you know how， say， a football player from 50 years ago would compare to one today?W： Well. You are right. That comparison would be perhaps impossible to make.

2020年7月六级作文和翻译【作文题目】The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.【参考范文】It is universally acknowledged that the best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today. To put in another word, it is wise for us to seize the moment and spare no efforts to finish the current task.On the one hand, actions play a key role in the course of achieving goals. As a consequence, it is imperative that we should take prompt actions to accomplish a future aim. On the other hand, we are supposed to attach due importance to the efficiency, which exerts a critical impact on personal growth and future career. As a result, improving the efficiency is what we cannot neglect.In a word, effective and efficient actions must be taken by every individual for the sake of achieving great dreams. If we can make progress little by little, the dream will come true in the near future.【翻译原文】《三国演义》写于14世纪，是中国著名的历史小说。

Part I Writing (30 minutes) 【试题】Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.”You should write at least 150words but no more than 200words.【参考范文】While we all desire to lead an ideal lifestyle some day, most of us tend to do no more than create a blueprint for, or even daydream about, it. Some may excuse themselves by claiming they are not ready to get started. Actually, they have yet to realize the truth of that saying: The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.Tomorrow is utterly unpredictable, whereas only today can be under control. This undisputed fact implies that attaining any goal requires us to seize the day and live it to the fullest. If we want to, for example, improve our physical fitness, just begin by going jogging this evening, rather than waste time making workout plans for the following weeks. It does not mean planning is of little value. The point is that many people are prone to an illusory sense of satisfaction during this process, hindering them from taking immediate action.It is very tough indeed overcoming our inertia. But only by acting now and working hard can we move a step closer to success. Those who put off until tomorrow what really matters to them will end up achieving nothing.Part II Listening Comprehension (30 minutes) （暂缺干扰项）Section AConversation One【听力原文】M: Tonight, we have a very special guest.

Humour unlocks the office prison because it lets adults bring some of their childlike spirit to the job.According to Howard Pollio, professor of psychology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, an office with humour breaks is an office with satisfied and productive employees. Pollio conducted a study that proved humour can help workers excel at routine production tasks. Employees perform better when they have fun.In large corporations with a hierarchy of power, the re is often no outlet for stress. “Every company needs underground ways of poking fun at the organization,” says Lynn ... Mark, a speaker on workplace humour for St. Mary’s Health Centre in St. Louis.Kodak’s Rochester, New York branch discovered a way fo r its 20000 employees to uncork their bottled-up resentments. Their 1000-square-foot Humour Room features a toy store. Among the room’s many stress-reducing gadgets, the main attraction is a boss doll with detachable arms and legs. Employees can take the doll apart as long as they put its arms and legs back in place.Sandy Cohen, owner of a graphic print production business, created the Quote Board to document the bizarre phrases people say when under strict deadlines. “When you’re under stress, you say st upid things,” says Cohen. “Now we just look at each other and say, that’s one for the Quote Board.”【题目】9.

A) It helps employees to reduce their stress.10. D) Humour can help workers excel at routine tasks.11. B) Take the boss doll apart as long as they can assemble it.Passage Two【听力原文】Public interest was aroused by the latest discovery of a changed gene in obese mice. The news was made known by Rockefeller University geneticist Jeffrey Friedman. The researchers believe this gene influences development of a hormone that tells the organism how fat or full it is.Those with the changed gene may not sense when they have eaten enough or if they have sufficient fatty tissue, and thus can't tell when to stop eating.The researchers also reported finding a gene nearly identical to the mouse obesity gene in humans. The operation of this gene in humans has not yet been demonstrated, however. Still, professionals like University of Vermont psychologist Esther Rothblum reacted enthusiastically: “This research indicates that people really are born with a tendency to have a certain weight, just as they are to have a particular skin color or height.”Actually, behavioral geneticists believe that less than half of total weight variation is programmed in the genes, while height is almost entirely genetically determined.Whatever role genes play, Americans are getting fatter. A survey by the Center for Disease Control found that obesity has increased greatly over the last 10 years. Such rapid change underlines the role of envi ronmental factors, like the abundance of rich foods, in Americans’ overeating.The Center for Disease Control has also found that teens are far less physically active than they were even a decade ago. Accepting that weight is predetermined can relieve guilt for overweight people. But people’s belief that they cannot control their weight can itself contribute to obesity.【题目】Q12: What does the speaker say has aroused public interest?Q13: What do we learn about the changed gene?Q14: What does University of Vermont psychologist Esther Rothblum say?Q15: What accounts for Americans’ obesity according to a survey by the Center for Disease Control?【参考答案】12. A) The recent finding of a changed gene in obese mice.13. D) It renders mice unable to sense when to stop eating.14. C) People are born with a tendency to have a certain weight.15. B) The abundant provision of rich foods.Section CRecording One【听力原文】Qualities of a relationship, such as openness, compassion, and mental stimulation are of concern to most of us regardless of sex, but – judging from the questionnaire response – they are more important to women than to men.Asked to consider the ingredients of close friendship, women rated these qualities above all others. Men assigned a lower priority to them in favor of similarity in interests, selected by 77% of men, and responsiveness in a crisis, chosen by 61% of male respondents. Mental stimulation, ranked third in popularity by men as well as women, was the only area of overlap. Among men, only 28% named openness as an important quality; caring was picked by just 23%.It is evident by their selections that when women speak of close friendships they are referring to emotional factors, while men emphasize the pleasure th ey find in a friend’s company. That is, when a man speaks of “a friend” he is likely to be talking about someone he does things with – a teammate, a fellow hobbyist, a drinking buddy. These activities are the fabric of the friendship; itis a “doing” relat ionship in which similarity in interests is the key bond. This factor was a consideration of less than 11% of women. Women opt for a warm, emotional atmosphere where communication flows freely; activity is mere background.Lastly, men, as we have seen, hav e serious questions about each other’s loyalty. Perhaps this is why they placed such strong emphasis on responsiveness in a crisis –“someone I can call on for help.” Women, as their testimonies indicate, are generally more secure with each other and consequently are more likely to treat this issue lightly. In follow-up interviews this was confirmed numerous times as woman after woman indicated that “being there when needed was taken for granted.”As for the hazards of friendship, more than a few relationships have been shattered because of cutthroat competition and feelings of betrayal. This applies to both men and women, but unequally. In comparison, nearly twice as many men complained about these issues as women. Further, while competition and betrayal are the main thorns to female friendship, men are plagued in almost equal amounts by two additional issues: lack of frankness and a fear of appearing unmanly. Obviously, for a man, a good friendship is hard to find.【题目】Q16: What quality do men value most concerning friendship, according to a questionnaire response?Q17: What do women refer to when speaking of close friendships?Q18: What may threaten a friendship for both men and women?【参考答案】16. A) Similarity in interests.17. D) Emotional factors.18. C) Feelings of betrayal.Recording Two【听力原文】The partial skeletons of more than 20 dinosaurs and the scattered bones of about 300 more have been discovered in Utah and Colorado at what is now the Dinosaur National Monument. Many of the best specimens may be seen today at museums of natural history in the larger cities of the United States and Canada. This dinosaur pit is the largest and best preserved deposit of dinosaurs known today.Many people get the idea from the mass of bones in the pit wall that some disaster such as a volcanic explosion or a sudden flood killed a whole herd of dinosaurs in this area. This could have happened but it probably did not.The main reasons for thinking otherwise are the scattered bones and the thickness of the deposit. In other deposits where the animals were thought to have died together, the skeletons were usually complete and often all the bones were in their proper places. Rounded pieces of fossil bone have been found here. These fragments got their smooth round shape by rolling along the stream bottom. In a mass killing, the bones would have been left on the stream or lake bottom together at the same level. But in this deposit, the bones occur throughout a zone of sandstone about 12 feet thick. The mixture of swamp dwellers and dry-land types also seems to indicate that the deposit is a mixture from different places.The pit area is a large dinosaur graveyard, not a place where they died. Most of the remainsprobably floated down an eastward flowing river until they were left on a shallow sandbar. Some of them may have come from far-away dry-land areas to the west. Perhaps they drowned trying to cross a small stream or were washed away during floods. Some of the swamp dwellers may have got stuck in the very sandbar that became their grave; others may have floated for miles before being stranded.Even today similar events take place. When floods come in the spring, sheep, cattle and deer are often trapped by rising waters and often drown. Their dead bodies float downstream until the flood recedes and leaves them stranded on a bar or shore where they lie, half buried in the sand, until they decay. Early travelers on the Missouri river reported that shores and bars were often lined with the decaying bodies of buffalo that had died during spring floods.【题目】Q19: Where can many of the best dinosaur specimens be found in North America?Q20: What occurs to many people when they see the massive bones in the pit wall?Q21: What does the speaker suggest about the large number of dinosaur bones found in the pit? 【参考答案】19. D) At museums of natural history in large cities.20. B) Some natural disaster killed a whole herd of dinosaurs in the area.21. A) They floated down an eastward of flowing river.Recording Three【听力原文】I would like particularly to talk about the need to develop a new style of aging in our own society. Young people in this country have been accused of not caring for their parents the way they would have in the old country. And this is true. But it is also true that old people have been influenced by an American ideal of independence and autonomy. So we live alone, perhaps on the verge of starvation, in time without friends, but we are independent. This standard American style has been forced on every ethnic group, although there are many groups for whom the ideal is not practical. It is a poor ideal and pursuing it does a great deal of harm.This ideal of independence also contains a tremendous amount of unselfishness. In talking to today’s young mothers, I have asked them what kind of grandmothers they think they are going to be. I hear devoted, loving mothers say that when they are through raising their children, they have no intention of becoming grandmothers. They are astonished to hear that in most of the world throughout most of its history, families have been three- or four-generation families, living under the same roof. We have over-emphasized the small family unit—father, mother, small children. We think it is wonderful if Grandma and Grandpa, if they’re still alive, can live alone.We have reached the point where we think the only thing we can do for our children is to stay out of their way and the only thing we can do for our daughter-in-law is to see as little of her as possible. Old people’s nursing homes, even the best run, are filled with older people who believe the only thing they can do for their children is to look cheerful when they come to visit. So in the end, older people have to devote all their energies to “not being a burden”.We are beginning to see what a tremendous price we’ve paid for our emphasis on independence and autonomy. We have isolated old people and we’ve cut off the children from their grandparents. One of the reasons we have as bad a generation gap today as we do is that grandparents have stepped out. Young people are being deprived of the thing they needmost—perspective, to know why their parents behave so peculiarly and why their grandparents say the things they do.【题目】Question 22: What have young Americans been accused of?Question 23: What does the speaker say about old people in the United States?Question 24: What is astonishing to the young mothers interviewed by the speaker?Question 25: What does the speaker say older people try their best to do?【参考答案】22. C) Failing to care for parents in the traditional way.23. D) They have a sense of independence and autonomy.24. B) There have been extended families in most parts of the world.25. B) Avoid being a burden to their children.Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Section A缺文章和试题【参考答案】26. G) grabbed27. B) declaration28. M) stake29. K) overwhelming30. C) deteriorating31. F) eroding32. E) disaster33. D) determined34. O) urgent35. A) capacitySection B（暂缺部分段落、试题）Children understand far more about other minds than long believedA) Until a few decades ago, scholars believed that young children know very little, if anything,about what others are thinking. Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget, who is credited with founding the scientific study of children’s thinki ng, was convinced that preschool children cannot consider what goes on in the minds of others. The interviews and experiments he conducted with kids in the middle of the 20th century suggested that they were trapped in their subjective viewpoints, incapable of imagining what others think, feel or believe. To him, young children seemed oblivious to the fact that different people might hold distinct viewpoints or perspectives on the world, or even that their own perspectives shift over time.B) Much of the subsequent research on early childhood thinking was highly influenced by Piaget’sideas. Scholars sought to refine his theory and empirically confirm his views. But it became increasingly clear that Piaget was missing something. He seemed to have gravely underestimated the intellectual powers of very young kids – before they can make themselvesunderstood by speech or even intentional action. Researchers began to devise ever more ingenious ways of figuring out what goes on in the minds of babies, and the resulting picture of their abilities is becoming more and more nuanced…C) Historically, children didn’t receive much respect for their mental powers. Piaget not onlybelieved that children were “egocentric” in the sense that they were unable to differenti ate between their own viewpoint and that of others; he was also convinced that their thinking was characterized by systematic errors and confusions…D) …E) Today, a very different picture of children’s mental development emerges. Psychologistscontinu ally reveal new insights into the depth of young children’s knowledge of the world, including their understanding of other minds. Recent studies suggest that even infants are sensitive to others’ perspectives and beliefs.F) Part of the motivation to rev ise some of Piaget’s conclusions stemmed from an ideological shiftabout the origin of human knowledge that occurred in the second half of the 20th century. It became increasingly unpopular to assume that a basic understanding of the world can be built ent irely from experience…G) To prove that infants know more in this realm than had been acknowledged, researchersneeded to come up with innovative ways of showing it. A big part of why we now recognize so much more of kids’ intellectual capacities is the development of much more sensitive research tools than Piaget had at his disposal.H) Instead of engaging babies in dialog or having them execute complex motor tasks, the newermethods capitalize on behaviors that have a firm place in infants’ natural be havior repertoire: looking, listening, sucking, making facial expressions, gestures and simple manual actions.The idea of focusing on these “small behaviors” is that they give kids the chance to demonstrate their knowledge implicitly and spontaneously –without having to respond to questions or instructions. For example, children might look longer at an event that they did not expect to happen, or they might show facial expressions indicating that they have empathy with another…I) …J) In a set of exp eriments…K) …L) Despite these obvious advances in the study of young children’s thinking, it would be a grave mistake to dismiss the careful and systematic analyses compiled by Piaget and others before the new tests dominated the scene. Doing so would be like throwing out the baby with thebathwater, because the original methods revealed essential facts about how children think –facts that the new, “minimalist” methods cannot uncover.M) There’s no consensus in today’s community about how much we can infer from a look, a grimace or a hand gesture. These behaviors clearly indicate a curiosity about what goes on in the mind of others, and probably a set of early intuitions coupled with a willingness to learn more. They pave the way to richer and more explicit forms of understanding of the minds of other. But they can in no way replace the child’s growing ability to articulate and refine her understanding of how people behave and why36. Piaget believed that small children…37.

So I guess you could say it runs in the family.M: What products have you worked with?W: All sorts, really. I’ve imported textiles, machinery, toys, solar panels, all kinds of things over the years. Trends and demand come and go. So one needs to be very flexible to succeed in this industry.M: I see. What goods are you trading now?W: I now import furniture from China into Italy and foods from Italy into China. I even use the same container. It’s a very efficient way of conducting trade.M: The same container? You mean you own a 40-foot cargo container?W: Yeah, that’s right. I have a warehouse in Genoa, Italy and another in Shanghai. I source mid-century modern furniture from different factories in China. It’s very good value for money. I collect it all in my warehouse and then dispatch it to my other warehouse in Italy.Over there I do the same, but with Italian foods instead of furniture, things like pasta, cheese, wine, chocolates. And I send all that to my warehouse in China in the same freight containerI use for the furniture.M: So I presume you sell both lines of products wholesale in each respective country.W: Of course. I possess a network of clients and partners in both countries. That’s the main benefit of having done this for so long. I’ve made great business contacts over time.M: How many times do you ship?W: I did 12 shipments last year, 18 this year, and I hope to grow to around 25 next year. Tha t’s both ways, there and back again. Demand for authentic Italian food in China is growing rapidly. And similarly, sales of affordable, yet stylish wooden furniture are also increasing in Italy. Furniture is marginally more profitable, mostly because it enjoys lower customs duties. 【题目】Q5: What does the woman think is required to be successful in international trade?Q6: What does the woman say is special about her way of doing trade?Q7: What does the woman have in both Italy and China?Q8: What does the woman say makes furniture marginally more profitable?【参考答案】5. B) Flexibility.6. D) Using the same container back and forth.7. A) Warehouses.8. C) Lower import duties.Section BPassage One【听力原文】“Too many people view their jobs as a five-day prison from which they are paroled every Friday,” says Joel Goodman, founder of the Humour Project, a humour consulting group in Saratoga Springs, New York. Humour unlocks the office prison because it lets adults bring some of their childlike spirit to the job.According to Howard Pollio, professor of psychology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, an office with humour breaks is an office with satisfied and productive employees. Pollio conducted a study that proved humour can help workers excel at routine production tasks. Employees perform better when they have fun.In large corporations with a hierarchy of power, the re is often no outlet for stress. “Every company needs underground ways of poking fun at the organization,” says Lynn ... Mark, a speaker on workplace humour for St. Mary’s Health Centre in St. Louis.Kodak’s Rochester, New York branch discovered a way fo r its 20000 employees to uncork their bottled-up resentments. Their 1000-square-foot Humour Room features a toy store. Among the room’s many stress-reducing gadgets, the main attraction is a boss doll with detachable arms and legs. Employees can take the doll apart as long as they put its arms and legs back in place.Sandy Cohen, owner of a graphic print production business, created the Quote Board to document the bizarre phrases people say when under strict deadlines. “When you’re under stress, you say st upid things,” says Cohen. “Now we just look at each other and say, that’s one for the Quote Board.”【题目】9. What does the passage say about humour in the workplace?10. What does the study by Howard Pollio show?11. What can Kodak’s employees do in the Hum our Room?【参考答案】9. A) It helps employees to reduce their stress.10. D) Humour can help workers excel at routine tasks.11. B) Take the boss doll apart as long as they can assemble it.Passage Two【听力原文】Public interest was aroused by the latest discovery of a changed gene in obese mice. The news was made known by Rockefeller University geneticist Jeffrey Friedman. The researchers believe this gene influences development of a hormone that tells the organism how fat or full it is.Those with the changed gene may not sense when they have eaten enough or if they have sufficient fatty tissue, and thus can't tell when to stop eating.The researchers also reported finding a gene nearly identical to the mouse obesity gene in humans. The operation of this gene in humans has not yet been demonstrated, however. Still, professionals like University of Vermont psychologist Esther Rothblum reacted enthusiastically: “This research indicates that people really are born with a tendency to have a certain weight, just as they are to have a particular skin color or height.”Actually, behavioral geneticists believe that less than half of total weight variation is programmed in the genes, while height is almost entirely genetically determined.Whatever role genes play, Americans are getting fatter. A survey by the Center for Disease Control found that obesity has increased greatly over the last 10 years. Such rapid change underlines the role of envi ronmental factors, like the abundance of rich foods, in Americans’ overeating.The Center for Disease Control has also found that teens are far less physically active than they were even a decade ago. Accepting that weight is predetermined can relieve guilt for overweight people. But people’s belief that they cannot control their weight can itself contribute to obesity.【题目】Q12: What does the speaker say has aroused public interest?Q13: What do we learn about the changed gene?Q14: What does University of Vermont psychologist Esther Rothblum say?Q15: What accounts for Americans’ obesity according to a survey by the Center for Disease Control?【参考答案】12. A) The recent finding of a changed gene in obese mice.13. D) It renders mice unable to sense when to stop eating.14. C) People are born with a tendency to have a certain weight.15. B) The abundant provision of rich foods.Section CRecording One【听力原文】Qualities of a relationship, such as openness, compassion, and mental stimulation are of concern to most of us regardless of sex, but – judging from the questionnaire response – they are more important to women than to men.Asked to consider the ingredients of close friendship, women rated these qualities above all others. Men assigned a lower priority to them in favor of similarity in interests, selected by 77% of men, and responsiveness in a crisis, chosen by 61% of male respondents. Mental stimulation, ranked third in popularity by men as well as women, was the only area of overlap. Among men, only 28% named openness as an important quality; caring was picked by just 23%.It is evident by their selections that when women speak of close friendships they are referring to emotional factors, while men emphasize the pleasure th ey find in a friend’s company. That is, when a man speaks of “a friend” he is likely to be talking about someone he does things with – a teammate, a fellow hobbyist, a drinking buddy. These activities are the fabric of the friendship; itis a “doing” relat ionship in which similarity in interests is the key bond. This factor was a consideration of less than 11% of women. Women opt for a warm, emotional atmosphere where communication flows freely; activity is mere background.Lastly, men, as we have seen, hav e serious questions about each other’s loyalty. Perhaps this is why they placed such strong emphasis on responsiveness in a crisis –“someone I can call on for help.” Women, as their testimonies indicate, are generally more secure with each other and consequently are more likely to treat this issue lightly. In follow-up interviews this was confirmed numerous times as woman after woman indicated that “being there when needed was taken for granted.”As for the hazards of friendship, more than a few relationships have been shattered because of cutthroat competition and feelings of betrayal. This applies to both men and women, but unequally. In comparison, nearly twice as many men complained about these issues as women. Further, while competition and betrayal are the main thorns to female friendship, men are plagued in almost equal amounts by two additional issues: lack of frankness and a fear of appearing unmanly. Obviously, for a man, a good friendship is hard to find.【题目】Q16: What quality do men value most concerning friendship, according to a questionnaire response?Q17: What do women refer to when speaking of close friendships?Q18: What may threaten a friendship for both men and women?【参考答案】16. A) Similarity in interests.17. D) Emotional factors.18. C) Feelings of betrayal.Recording Two【听力原文】The partial skeletons of more than 20 dinosaurs and the scattered bones of about 300 more have been discovered in Utah and Colorado at what is now the Dinosaur National Monument. Many of the best specimens may be seen today at museums of natural history in the larger cities of the United States and Canada. This dinosaur pit is the largest and best preserved deposit of dinosaurs known today.Many people get the idea from the mass of bones in the pit wall that some disaster such as a volcanic explosion or a sudden flood killed a whole herd of dinosaurs in this area. This could have happened but it probably did not.The main reasons for thinking otherwise are the scattered bones and the thickness of the deposit. In other deposits where the animals were thought to have died together, the skeletons were usually complete and often all the bones were in their proper places. Rounded pieces of fossil bone have been found here. These fragments got their smooth round shape by rolling along the stream bottom. In a mass killing, the bones would have been left on the stream or lake bottom together at the same level. But in this deposit, the bones occur throughout a zone of sandstone about 12 feet thick. The mixture of swamp dwellers and dry-land types also seems to indicate that the deposit is a mixture from different places.The pit area is a large dinosaur graveyard, not a place where they died. Most of the remainsprobably floated down an eastward flowing river until they were left on a shallow sandbar. Some of them may have come from far-away dry-land areas to the west. Perhaps they drowned trying to cross a small stream or were washed away during floods. Some of the swamp dwellers may have got stuck in the very sandbar that became their grave; others may have floated for miles before being stranded.Even today similar events take place. When floods come in the spring, sheep, cattle and deer are often trapped by rising waters and often drown. Their dead bodies float downstream until the flood recedes and leaves them stranded on a bar or shore where they lie, half buried in the sand, until they decay. Early travelers on the Missouri river reported that shores and bars were often lined with the decaying bodies of buffalo that had died during spring floods.【题目】Q19: Where can many of the best dinosaur specimens be found in North America?Q20: What occurs to many people when they see the massive bones in the pit wall?Q21: What does the speaker suggest about the large number of dinosaur bones found in the pit? 【参考答案】19. D) At museums of natural history in large cities.20. B) Some natural disaster killed a whole herd of dinosaurs in the area.21. A) They floated down an eastward of flowing river.Recording Three【听力原文】I would like particularly to talk about the need to develop a new style of aging in our own society. Young people in this country have been accused of not caring for their parents the way they would have in the old country. And this is true. But it is also true that old people have been influenced by an American ideal of independence and autonomy. So we live alone, perhaps on the verge of starvation, in time without friends, but we are independent. This standard American style has been forced on every ethnic group, although there are many groups for whom the ideal is not practical. It is a poor ideal and pursuing it does a great deal of harm.This ideal of independence also contains a tremendous amount of unselfishness. In talking to today’s young mothers, I have asked them what kind of grandmothers they think they are going to be. I hear devoted, loving mothers say that when they are through raising their children, they have no intention of becoming grandmothers. They are astonished to hear that in most of the world throughout most of its history, families have been three- or four-generation families, living under the same roof. We have over-emphasized the small family unit—father, mother, small children. We think it is wonderful if Grandma and Grandpa, if they’re still alive, can live alone.We have reached the point where we think the only thing we can do for our children is to stay out of their way and the only thing we can do for our daughter-in-law is to see as little of her as possible. Old people’s nursing homes, even the best run, are filled with older people who believe the only thing they can do for their children is to look cheerful when they come to visit. So in the end, older people have to devote all their energies to “not being a burden”.We are beginning to see what a tremendous price we’ve paid for our emphasis on independence and autonomy. We have isolated old people and we’ve cut off the children from their grandparents. One of the reasons we have as bad a generation gap today as we do is that grandparents have stepped out. Young people are being deprived of the thing they needmost—perspective, to know why their parents behave so peculiarly and why their grandparents say the things they do.【题目】Question 22: What have young Americans been accused of?Question 23: What does the speaker say about old people in the United States?Question 24: What is astonishing to the young mothers interviewed by the speaker?Question 25: What does the speaker say older people try their best to do?【参考答案】22. C) Failing to care for parents in the traditional way.23. D) They have a sense of independence and autonomy.24. B) There have been extended families in most parts of the world.25. B) Avoid being a burden to their children.Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Section A缺文章和试题【参考答案】26. G) grabbed27. B) declaration28. M) stake29. K) overwhelming30. C) deteriorating31. F) eroding32. E) disaster33. D) determined34. O) urgent35. A) capacitySection B（暂缺部分段落、试题）Children understand far more about other minds than long believedA) Until a few decades ago, scholars believed that young children know very little, if anything,about what others are thinking. Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget, who is credited with founding the scientific study of children’s thinki ng, was convinced that preschool children cannot consider what goes on in the minds of others. The interviews and experiments he conducted with kids in the middle of the 20th century suggested that they were trapped in their subjective viewpoints, incapable of imagining what others think, feel or believe. To him, young children seemed oblivious to the fact that different people might hold distinct viewpoints or perspectives on the world, or even that their own perspectives shift over time.B) Much of the subsequent research on early childhood thinking was highly influenced by Piaget’sideas. Scholars sought to refine his theory and empirically confirm his views. But it became increasingly clear that Piaget was missing something. He seemed to have gravely underestimated the intellectual powers of very young kids – before they can make themselvesunderstood by speech or even intentional action. Researchers began to devise ever more ingenious ways of figuring out what goes on in the minds of babies, and the resulting picture of their abilities is becoming more and more nuanced…C) Historically, children didn’t receive much respect for their mental powers. Piaget not onlybelieved that children were “egocentric” in the sense that they were unable to differenti ate between their own viewpoint and that of others; he was also convinced that their thinking was characterized by systematic errors and confusions…D) …E) Today, a very different picture of children’s mental development emerges. Psychologistscontinu ally reveal new insights into the depth of young children’s knowledge of the world, including their understanding of other minds. Recent studies suggest that even infants are sensitive to others’ perspectives and beliefs.F) Part of the motivation to rev ise some of Piaget’s conclusions stemmed from an ideological shiftabout the origin of human knowledge that occurred in the second half of the 20th century. It became increasingly unpopular to assume that a basic understanding of the world can be built ent irely from experience…G) To prove that infants know more in this realm than had been acknowledged, researchersneeded to come up with innovative ways of showing it. A big part of why we now recognize so much more of kids’ intellectual capacities is the development of much more sensitive research tools than Piaget had at his disposal.H) Instead of engaging babies in dialog or having them execute complex motor tasks, the newermethods capitalize on behaviors that have a firm place in infants’ natural be havior repertoire: looking, listening, sucking, making facial expressions, gestures and simple manual actions.The idea of focusing on these “small behaviors” is that they give kids the chance to demonstrate their knowledge implicitly and spontaneously –without having to respond to questions or instructions. For example, children might look longer at an event that they did not expect to happen, or they might show facial expressions indicating that they have empathy with another…I) …J) In a set of exp eriments…K) …L) Despite these obvious advances in the study of young children’s thinking, it would be a grave mistake to dismiss the careful and systematic analyses compiled by Piaget and others before the new tests dominated the scene. Doing so would be like throwing out the baby with thebathwater, because the original methods revealed essential facts about how children think –facts that the new, “minimalist” methods cannot uncover.M) There’s no consensus in today’s community about how much we can infer from a look, a grimace or a hand gesture. These behaviors clearly indicate a curiosity about what goes on in the mind of others, and probably a set of early intuitions coupled with a willingness to learn more. They pave the way to richer and more explicit forms of understanding of the minds of other. But they can in no way replace the child’s growing ability to articulate and refine her understanding of how people behave and why36. Piaget believed that small children…37.

2020 年7 月份英语六级考试答案一、写作：六级作文主题：The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.明天最好的准备在于今天尽你所能。
参考范文：There is a famous saying that the best preparation for tomorrow is to do good work today. Simple as the saying is, it informs us that one doesn’t need to worry about the future if he can seize the moment.It is generally believed that taking immediate action is of great importance. Doing good work today enables people to achieve their great goals step by step. Assume a college student who is indulged in his wishful thinking of passing the CET-6 exam with a high score without any efforts and hardwork，and he will be devastated to accept the reality when he fails. The same thing may be said of some grown-ups who aspire to gain fame and fortune but never bother to put their splendid plans into practice immediately.Therefore, by some means or other we must take action to pursue our goals. It is necessary for us to aim high but our behaviors should also deserve our dreams. We are supposed to put our efforts into every single day and never look down upon those little tasks. Only in this way can we fulfill our dreams.二、听力答案1.A She is a great athlete.2.D How technology has helped athlete to scale new heights .3.

people will be more over-reliant on the mobile-phones and internet.From where I stand,I would take the the translation on this kind of apps asa reference rather than a kind of dependence.The most effective and beneficial way to express yourself and communicate with a foreigner is to improve one’s ability to exert this unfamiliar language.As an old saying goes is Practice makes perfect.The use of translation apps is becoming increasingly popular.Why?Admittedly, in the contemporay society,an increasing number of people,with the help of translation apps,find itconvenient to read foreign literature or essays.On the one hand,these apps can bring users greater efficiency and help them save more time or energy,particularly for those who have no knowledge of a foreign language.For instance,a host of people may have a variety of difficulties or troubles in learning English,but with the assistance of these apps,it will not be difficult for them to read and understand English materials.On the other hand,it is these apps that cuase some learners to lose motivation for studying.With apps in hand,they are willing to do their utmost to memorize new words,pratice speaking or writing skills every day.Fianlly,they will fail to get a good command of any foreign language.I,as a college student,deem that it is of great necessity for youngsters to use translations apps in arational way.We should bear in mind that any translation app is merely a tool.Provided that one intends to master a foreign language,it is advisable to practice each day instead of relying on translationapps.The use of translation apps is becoming increasingly popular.It has beenаcommon sight thatpeople are using such apps when they are travelling abroad or communicating with foreign people.In my opinion,translation apps can bring undeniable benefits to people’s lives.The benefits brought by translation apps can bereflected in two aspects.First, translation apps greatly increase the efficiency of cross-linguistic communication.By recording and often simultaneously translating the words,these apps break down communication barriers in mere seconds and help people understand each other as if they were speaking the same tongue.Second,translationapps save time of studying a foreign language.It may be true that one need to learn a foreign language thoroughly if they wish to live in that country,but forshort-term travelers,they can rely on translation apps to fulfil their needs of communication,with no necessity of learning the language systematically.With the advancement of technologies,translation apps can be updated to translate faster and more accurately.I think these apps are a welcome addition to our daily lives.The use of translation apps is becoming increasingly popular,owing to the growing demand of international communication.Living in an era of globalization,due to obstacles caused by language barriers, people in different countries may have a variety of difficulties in understanding each other.Then,with the help of these apps,a large number of businessmen or travelers find it convenient to communicate with foreigners.However, because of the limited technology of language recognition,the accuracy andmaturity of most translation apps,admittedly,are still not satisfying.That is to say,these applications may also cause some errors.In conclusion,I am convinced that it is not sensible to rely entirely on these translation apps.I,as a college student,deem that languagelearners should try their utmost to learn and practice language skills.A typical example is me,as an English learner.I believe that only by practice can I express myself freely in oral English.In the curent context,there has been a heated discussion about the use of translation apps,especially among students in campus.Meanwhile,it has long been known that"There is no garden without its weeds."and these translation apps areno exception,which have both merits and demerits.For one thing,some insist that their ever-strengthened function and increasingly improved accuracy can provide a good deal of assistance for the users to accomplish their daily study or work,which means that they can easily enhance their study or work efficiency.For another thing,others believe that the overuse of these apps may mislead some students and make them rely on their electronic devices excessively, ignoring the fact that they should also cultivate their independent ability of thinking and studying.All in all,the value of the ability to study autonomously can never

You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words .二、真题解析对明天最好的准备就是今天做到最好。
题目强调要珍惜当下，做好现在，努力完成当下的任务。
在正文部分，可以详述一下如何将今天做到最好，比如行动及效率。
强调行动的重要性的时候，如果直接表达为：action is important，这样的表达过于单调，在考试中也不会占有优势。
因此，可以使用A plays a key role in B这样的句型表达；同时，在强调效率的重要性的时候，可以使用A exerts a critical impact on B这样的句型。
“因此我们应该重视效率”，如何翻译呢？重视可以使用固定搭配attach importance to something来写。
语言不要求词汇多复杂，但是为了求高分，表达尽可能的做到多样化。
让阅卷考官看到你语言的亮点。
在写最后一段的时候可以提出倡议或者建议，建议大家为了实现梦想，为未来做最好准备采取及时的行动，每天进步一点点，最终实现梦想！翻译时可以一点点翻译，然后串成句子。
涉及到的相关表达有：（1）采取有效且高效的行动：take effective and efficient actions；（2）取得进步：make progress。

Doing good work today enables people to achieve their great goals step by step.

The same thing may be said of some grown-ups who aspire to gain fame and fortune but never bother to put their splendid plans into practice immediately.Therefore, by some means or other we must take action to pursue our goals.
