W: I hear you did some serious shopping this past weekend.M: Yeah, the speakers of my old stereo finally gave out and there was no way to repair them.Q: What did the man do over the weekend?Conversation OneW: Now, could you tell me where the idea for the business first came from?M: Well, the original shop was opened by a retired printer by the name of Gruby. Mr Gruby being left-handed himself, thought of the idea to try to promote a few products for left-handers.W: And how did he then go about actually setting up the business?M: Well, he looked for any left-handed products that might already be on the market which were very few.

Of the 15,000 mice house there in a typical year, most give their lives for humanity. These are good mice and as such won the protection of the animal care committee. At any given time however some mice escape and run free. These mice are pests. They can disrupt experiments with the bacteria organisms they carry. They are bad mice and must be captured and destroyed. Usually, this is accomplished by means of sticky traps, a kind of fly paper on which they become increasingly stuck. But the real point of the cautionary tale, says animal behaviorist Herzau, is that the labels we put on things can affect our moral responses to them. Using stick traps or the more deadly snap traps would be deemed unacceptable for good mice. Yet the killing of bad mice requires no prior approval. Once the research animal hits the floor and becomes an escapee, says Herza, its moral standard is instantly diminished. In Herzau’s own home, there was more ironic example when his young son’s pet mouse Willy died recently, it was accorded a tearful ceremonial burial in garden. Yet even as they mourned Willy, says Herzau, he and his wife were setting snap traps to kill the pest mice in their kitchen with the bare change in labels from pet to pest, the kitchen mice obtained totally different moral standardsQuestions:26, What does the passage say about most of the mice used for experiments?27, Why did the so-called bad mice have to be captured and destroyed?28, When are mice killed without prior approval?29, Why does the speaker say what the Herzau’s did at home is ironical?Passage TwoThere are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born here, who takes the city for granted and accepts its size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter — the city that is swallowed up by locusts each day and spat out each night. Third, there is the New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these three trembling cities the greatest is the last, the city of final destination, the city that has a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York's high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give the city its tidal restlessness; natives give it solidity and continuity; but the settlers give it passion. And whether it is a farmer arriving from Italy to set up a small grocery store in a slum, or a young girl arriving from a small town in Mississippi to escape the indignity of being observed by her neighbors, or a boy arriving from theCorn Belt with a manuscript in his suitcase and a pain in his heart, it makes no difference: each embraces New York with the intense excitement of first love, each absorbs New York with the fresh eyes of an adventurer, each generates heat and light to dwarf the Consolidated Edison Company.Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.30. What does the speaker say about the natives of New York?31. What does the speaker say commuters give to New York?32. What do we learn about the settlers of New York?Passage Three“If you asked me television is unhealthy〞, I said to my roommate Walter, as I walked into the living room.“While you are sitting passively in front of the TV set, your muscles are turning to fat, your complexion is fading, and your eyesight is being ruined.〞“Shh~〞Walter put his finger to his lips, “This is an intriguing murder mystery.〞“Really?〞I replied.“But you know, the brain is destroyed by TV viewing. Creativity is killed by that box. And people are kept from communicating with one another. From my point of view, TV is the cause of the declining interest in school and the failure of our entire educational system.〞“Ah ha, I can’t see your point.〞Walter said softly. “But see? The woman on the witness stand in this story is being questioned about the murder that was committed one hundred years ago.〞Ignoring his enthusiastic description of the plot, I went on with my argument.“As I see it,〞I explained, “not only are most TV programs badly written and produced, but viewers are also manipulated by the mass media. As far as I am concerned, TV watchers are cut off from reality from nature, from the other people, from life itself! I was confident in my ability to persuade.After a short silence, my roommate said, “Anyway, I’ve been planning to w atch the football game.I am going to change the channel.〞“Don’t touch that dial!〞I shouted, “I wanted to find out how the mystery turns out!〞I am not sure I got my point to cross.Questions 33- 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. As the speaker walked into the living room, what was being shown on TV?34. What does the speaker say about watching television?35. What can we say about the speaker?Section C Compound DictationIn the past, one of the biggest disadvantages of machines has been their inability to work on a micro scale. For example, doctors did not have devices allowing them to go inside the human body to detect health problems or to perform delicate surgery. Repair crews did not have a way of identifying broken pipes located deep within a high-rise apartment building. However, that’s about to change. Advances in computers and biophysics have started a micro miniature revolution that allows scientists to envision and in some cases actually build microscopic machines. These devices promise to dramatically change the way we live and work.Micromachines already are making an impact. At Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, research scientists have designed a 4-inch silicon chip that holds 700 tiny primitive motors. At Lucas Nova Sensor in Fremont, California, scientists have perfected the world’s first microscopic blood-pressure sensor. Threaded through a person’s blood vessels, the sensor can provide blood pressure readings at the valve of the heart itself.Although simple versions of miniature devices have had an impact, advanced versions are still several years away.Auto manufacturers, for example, are trying to use tiny devices that can sense when to release an airbag and how to keep engines and breaks operating efficiently. Some futurists envision nanotechnology also being used to explore the deep sea in small submarine, or even to launch finger-sized rockets packed with micro miniature instruments.“There is an explosion of new ideas and applications,〞So, when scientists now think about future machines doing large and complex tasks, they’re thinking smaller than ever before.Listening Comprehension短对话听力谜底11.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?【谜底】A〕Listen to the recorded notes while driving.12.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?【谜底】C〕The man lacks confidence in playing the part.13.Q: What are the speakers talking about?【谜底】A〕Arranging a bed for a patient.14.Q: What does the man mean?【谜底】A〕He is too busy to accept more responsibility.Section A11.Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?【谜底】A) Listen to the recorded notes while driving.12.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?【谜底】C) The man lacks confidence in playing the part.13.Q: What are the speakers talking about?【谜底】A) Arranging a bed for a patient14.Q: What does the man mean?【谜底】A) He is too busy to accept more responsibility.15.Q: what do we learn about Jame Smeil?【谜底】C) He has left his position in the government.16.Q: what can we infer from this conversation?【谜底】D) The man is well informed about the space shuttle missions.17.Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?【谜底】A) At a car renting companySection BPassage One【资料评析】本篇文章要紧是报告人们看待老鼠差别的品德立场。

Inflation, resource scarcity, reduced personnel levels and budgetcuts have all underscore the needfor better coordination in organizations.Team management provides for this coordination. Team management calls for newskills if personnel potential is to be fully realized.Although a team may be composed ofknowledgeable people, they must learn new ways of relating and working togetherto solve cross-functional problems. When teams consist to be experiencedemployees from hierarchical organizations, whohave been condition totraditional organizational culture. Cooperation may not occur naturally, itmainly to be created. Furthermore, the issue is not just how the team canfunctionmore effectively, but how it integrates with the overall organization,all society that it supposes it serves. A groupof individuals is notautomatically a team. Therefore, team building may be necessary in order toimprove the group's performance. Casey, an expert in this field, suggests thatthe cooperation process within teams must be organized, promoted and managed.He believes the team corporation results when members go beyond theirindividual capabilities, beyond what each is used to being and doing. Together,the team may then produce something new, unique and superior to that of any onemember. For this to happen, he suggests the multi-cultural managers exhibitunderstanding of their own and others'cultural influences and limitations.They should alsocultivate such skills as toleration of ambiguity,persistenceand patience, as well as assertedness. If a team manager exemplifies suchqualities, then the team as a whole would be better able to realize theirpotential and achievetheir objectives.Q 16： What should teammembers do to fully realize their potential?Q 17： What needs to beconsidered for effective team management?Q 18： What conclusion can wedraw from what Casey says?Passage 2In early 1994, when MarkAndreessen was just 23 years old, he arrived in Silicon Valley with an ideathat would changethe world. As a student at the University of Illinois, heandhis friends had developed a program called Mosaic, which allowed people toshare information on the worldwide web. Before Mosaic, the web had been usedmainly by scientists andother technical people, who were happy just to sendand receive text. But with Mosaic, Andreessen and his friends had developed aprogram, which could send images over the web as well. Mosaic was an overnightsuccess. It was put on the university's network at the beginning of 1993. Andby the endof the year, it had over a million users. Soon after, Andreessenwent to seek his fortune in Silicon Valley. Once he got there, he started tohave meetings with a man called Jim Clark, who was one of the Valley's mostfamous entrepreneurs. In 1994, nobody was making any real money from theInternet, which was still very slow and hard to use. But Andreessen had seen an opportunity thatwould make him and Clark rich within two years. He suggested they should createa new computer program that would do the same job as Mosaic but would be mucheasier to use. Clark listened carefully to Andreessen, whose ideas andenthusiasm impressed him greatly. Eventually, Clark agreed to invest threemillion dollars of his own moneyin the project, and to raise an extra fifteenmillion fromventure capitalists, who were always keen to listen toClark's newideas.Q 19 What do we learn about Mosaic?Q 20 What did Andreessen do upon arriving in Silicon Valley?Q 21Why were venture capitalists willing to join inClark'sinvestment?Passage 3Advertising informs consumers about the existence and benefits ofproducts and services and attempts to persuadethem to buy them. The best formof advertising is probably word of mouth advertising which occurs when peopletell their friends about the benefits of products or services that they havepurchased. Yet virtually no providers of goods or services relay on this alone,which using paid advertising instead. Indeed many organizations also use institutionalor prestige advertising which is designed to build up their reputation ratherthan to sell particular products. Although large companies could easily set up theirown advertising departments, write their own advertisements and by media space themselves.They tend to use the services of large advertising agencies. These are likelyto have more resources and more knowledge about all aspects of advertising andadvertising media than single company. It is also easierfor a dissatisfycompany to give its account to another agency. And it would be to fire theirown advertising staff. The company generally give the advertising agency andagreed budget. A statement of the objective of the advertising campaign know asbrief and overall advertising strategy concerning the message to becommunicated to the target customers. The agency creates advertisements anddevelops a media prime, specifying which media will be used and in which proportions.Agencies often produce alternative ads or commercials that pretested innewspapers, television stations etc. in different parts of the country. Beforea final choiceswas madeprior to anational campaign.Q22 What is probably the bestform of advertising according to the speaker?Q23 What does the speaker sayis the proposes of many organization using prestige advertising ?Q24 How did large companiesgenerally handle their advertising?Q25 What would advertisingagencies often do before a national campaign?听写题Extinction is a difficult concept to grasp. It is aneternal concept. Itis not at all like the killing ofindividual life forms that can be renewedthrough normal processes of reproduction. Nor is simply diminishing numbers.Nor is it damage that can somehow be remedied or for which some substitute canbe found. Nor is it something that only affects our own generation. Nor is it somethingthatcould be remedied by some supernatural power. It is, rather,an absoluteand final act which there is no remedy on earth orin heaven. A species onceextinct, it's gone forever. However many generations succeed us in comingcenturies, none of them will ever see this species that we extinguish. Not onlyus we bring about extinction of life on a vast scale. We are also making theland and the air and sea so toxic that the very conditions of life are being destroyed.As regard natural resources ,not only are the none renewable resources beingused up in a of frenzy of processing, consuming and disposing but we are alsoruining much of our renewable resources. Such as the very solid self on whichterrestriallife depends. The change that is taking place onthe earth and in our minds isone of the greatest changes ever to take place in human affairs. Perhaps thegreatest, since weare talking about is not simply another historical change orcultural modification. But it change the geological and biological as well as psychologicalorder of magnitude.。

My family has tons of camping gear.Q： What does the woman mean?12.M： I know I promise to drive you to the airport next Thursday, but I’m afraid something has come up. They’ve called a special meeting at work.W： No big deal. Karen said she was available as a back-up.Q： What does the woman mean?13.W： Have you saved enough money for a trip to Hawaii?M： Not even close. My uncle must put the brakes on my travelling plans.Q： What does the man mean?14.M：I’m starving. Do we still have any pie left from the dinner yesterday?W： Oh, Julia invited her friends over in the afternoon and they ate it all.Q： What do we learn from the conversation?15.W： Three letters of recommendation are required to apply to graduate schools. I was wondering if the one professor Smith wrote for me last year could still be used.M：It’s a bit dated. You’d better submit a recent one.Q： What does the man suggest the woman do?16.W：I’ve noticed that you spend a lot of time tending your garden. Would you like to join our gardening club? We meet every other Wednesday.M： Oh, thanks for the invitation, but this is how I relax. I’d rather not make it something formal and structured.Q： What can we infer about the man?17.M： I heard the recent sculpture exhibit was kind of disappointing.W：That’s right. I guess a lot of other people feel the way I do about modern art.Q： What does the woman mean?18.M： Bob is running for chairman of the student union. Would you vote for him?W：Oh, I can’t decide right now because I have to find out more about the other candidates.Q： What does the woman mean?Conversation OneW：I don’t know what to do. I can’t seem to get anyone in the hospital to listen to my complaints and this outdated equipment is dangerous. Just look at it.M： Hmm, uh, are you trying to say that it presents a health hazard?W： Yes, I am. The head technician in the lab tried to persuade the hospital administration to replace it, but they are trying to cut costs.M：You are pregnant, aren’t you?W： Yes, I am. I made an effort to get my supervisor to transfer me to another department, but he urged me not to complain too loudly. Because the administration is morelikely to replace me than an X-ra y equipment, I’m afraid to refuse to work. But I’m more afraid to expose my unbornchild to the radiation.M： I see what you mean. Well, as your union representative, I have to warn you that it would take quite awhile to force management to replace the old machines and attempt to get you transferred may or may not be successful.W： Oh, what am I supposed to do then?M： Workers have the legal right to refuse certain unsafe work assignments under two federal laws, the Occupation or Safety and Health Act and the National Labor Relations Act. But the requirements of either of the Acts may be difficult to meet.W： Do you think I have a good case?M： If you do lose your job, the union will fight to get it back for you along with back pay, your lost income. But you have to be prepared for a long wait, maybe after two years.Q19. What does the woman complain about?Q20. What has the woman asked her supervisor to do?Q21. What does the man say about the two federal laws?Q22. What will the union do if the woman loses her job?Conversation TwoW： Mr. Green, is it fair to say that negotiation is an art?M：Well, I think it’s both an art an d science. You can prepare for a negotiation quite scientifically, but the execution of the negotiation has quite a lot to do withone’s artistic quality. The scientific part of a negotiation is in determining your strategy. What do you want out of it?What can you give? Then of course there are tactics. How do you go about it? Do you take an opening position in a negotiation which differs from the eventual goal you are heading for? And then of course there are the behavioral aspects.W： What do you mean by the behavioral aspects?M：Well, that’s I think where the art comes in. In your behavior, you can either be an actor. You can pretend that you don’t like things which you are actually quite pleased about. Or you can pretend to like things which you are quite happy to do without. Or you can be the honest type negotiator who’s known to his partners in negotiation and always plays everything straight. But the artistic part of negotiation I think has to do with responding immediately to cues one gets in the process of negotiation. These can be verbal cues or even body language. This is where the artistic quality comes in.W： So really, you see two types of negotiator then, the actor or the honest one.M：That’ right. And both can work. I would say the honest negotiator can be quite effective in some circumstances. In other circumstances you need an actor.Q23. When is a scientific approach best embodied in a negotiation according to the man?Q24. In what way is a negotiator like an actor according to the man?Q25. What does the man say about the two types of negotiator?参考答案Section A11答案：She can lend the man a sleeping bag.【解析】这是一道较为简单的推理题，前提是考生需知道camping gear表示“野餐用具，露营装备”，由此可知，camping gear包括sleeping bag，即女士能借给男士一个睡袋，此题的设置稍微绕了个小弯，为考生解题设置了一定难度。

It's super hard, but also super important for us to pass! Today, I'm going to talk about the listening section of the second set of the December 2020 CET-6 exam.The listening test is divided into four parts. In the first part, we have to listen to a conversation between two people and answer some questions. It's important to pay attention to details like names, numbers, and dates. The second part is a monologue where someone talks about a topic. We need to understand the main idea and details to answer the questions correctly.The third part is a discussion among three or four people. This part can be tricky because we need to keep track of who is saying what. Finally, the fourth part is an academic lecture. It's important to listen carefully and take notes because the speaker might talk fast and use difficult vocabulary.To prepare for the listening test, we should practice listening to English as much as possible. We can watch English movies, listen to English songs, and even try talking to ourselves in English. It's also a good idea to do some practice tests to get used to the format of the listening test.Remember, practice makes perfect! Let's work hard and pass the CET-6 listening test together!

It was all about different things like history, science, and even hobbies. I remember there was this one part about a lady who traveled all around the world taking pictures of animals. It was so cool!But you know what was the hardest part? Themultiple-choice questions. They always make me second-guess myself! Like, I would hear someone say something, and then I had to pick the right answer from the choices given. It was tricky, but I tried my best to listen carefully.And then there were the vocabulary questions. I had to write down the meaning of some words I heard in the listening. Some of them were easy, but others were super hard! I had to really think about what the word meant based on how it was used.Overall, the test was a challenge, but I think I did OK. I made sure to listen closely, take notes, and stay focused the whole time.

I wouldn’t say that it’s good from where I am standing. This is Miss Wilson, and this is the third time I’ve called this week since receiving your letter about our insurance claim. (1)I’m getting a little fed up with my calls about my claim being completely disregarded.M: Miss Wilson, thank you for calling back. Can I take some details to help me look at your claim?W: It’s Miss May Wilson, a 15 south sea road in Cornwall.And the details are that our village was extensively flooded 2 months ago. (2)The entire ground floor of our cottage was submerged in water.And five of us have been living in a caravan ever since. You people are still withholding the money we are entitled to over a bizarre, technical detail. And it’s not acceptable, Paul.M: Miss Wilson, according to the notes on your account, (3)the bizarre, technical detail that you mentioned refers to the fact that you hadn’t paid house insurance the month before the incident.W: That money left our account and wow that you should be paying out. You are suddenly saying that you didn’t receive it on time. I’m really skeptical about th is claim.M: The contract does say that any miss payment in a year will affect the terms and conditions of the insurance contract and may affect claims. Of course, I can pass you on to my manager to talk to you more about this.W: I’ve already spoken to him and you can tell him I’m furious now. And that your company has a lawsuit on its hands.(4) You will be hearing from my lawyer, good bye.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Question 1: What is the woman complaining about?Question 2: What is the problem the woman’s family encountered?Question 3: What has caused the so called bizarre, technical detail according to the man?Question 4: What does the woman say she will do at the end of the conversation?Conversation 2W: (5) How do you feel about the future of artificial intelligence? Personally, I feel quite optimistic about it.M: (5) AI? I’m not so optimistic actually. In fact it's, something we should be concerned about.W: Well, it will help us humans understand ourselves better and when we have a better understanding of ourselves, we can improve the world.M: Well, one thing is for sure, technology is evolving faster than our ability to understand it, and in the future AI will make jobs kind of pointless.W: (6) I think artificial intelligence will actually help create new kinds of jobs, which would require less of our time and allow us to be centered on creative tasks.M: I doubt that very much. Probably the last job that will be writing AI software and then eventually AI will just write his own software.W: At that time, we are going to have a lot of jobs which nobody will want to do. So we won’t need artificial intelligence for the robots to take care of the old guys like us.M: I don't know. (7) There's a risk that human civilization could be replaced by a superior type of digital life. AI will be able to completely simulate a person in every way possible. In fact, some people think we're in a simulation right now.W: That's impossible. Humans can't even make a mosquito. Computers only have chips, people have brains, and that's where the wisdom comes from.M: (8) Once it's fully developed, AI will become tired of trying to communicate with humans as we would be much slower thinkers in comparison.W: I'm not so sure. A computer is a computer and a computer is just a toy.M: Computers can easily communicate incredibly fast, so the computer will just get impatient talking to humans. It'll be barely getting any information out.W: Well, I believe there's a benevolent future with AI. I also think you watch too many science fiction films.Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.Q5 What do we learn about the speakers from the conversation?Q6 What will new kinds of jobs be like according to the woman?Q7 What is the risk the man anticipates?Q8 What is the man's concern about AI technology?Passage OneTo achieve financial security. How much you save is always more important. Then the amount you earn or how shrewdly you invest.(9) If you're under 30 years old, your goal should be to save 20% of your monthly income after tax deductions. This is irrespective of how much you earn. Approximately 50% should be reserved for essentials, like food and accommodation. The remaining 30% is for recreation and entertainment. But for many young people, it'll be difficult to designate such a large proportion of their income for savings. (10) If you find it hard to save any money at all start by cutting all unnecessary spending, allocate a tiny amount of 1 or 2% for savings, and gradually increase that amount. (11)Always keep that 20% goal in mind, prevent yourself from becoming complacent. It can be challenging to stick to such a strict plan. But if you adopt the right mindset, you should be able to make it work for you. So what should you be doing with the money that you are saving? Some must be kept easily accessible. In case you need some cash in an emergency, the largest proportion should be invested in retirement plans, either for your employer, all privately, you can keep some money for high risk, but potentially lucrative investments. Dividends can be reinvested or used to purchase something you like. By following this plan, you should hopefully be able to enjoy your life now, and still be financially secure in the future.Questions, 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q 9. What are people under 30 advised to do to achieve financial security?Q10. What should people do if they find it difficult to follow the speaker's advice on their financial plan?Q 11. What does the speaker think is important for achieving financial security?Passage TwoI work in advertising and I like to keep up with current trends, mainly because I'm aware that we live in an image obsessed world.(12)However, when I first started my job, occasionally I’d catch a glimpse of myself in the lifts and find myself thinking that I looked a total mess. Was I being held back by my choice of clothing? The short answer is “Yes”, especially when clients are quick to judge you on your style rather than your work.(13) But no one can be unique with her outfit every day. I mean that's why uniforms were invented. So here's what I did. I created my own uniform. To do this, I chose an appropriate outfit. Then I bought multiple items of the same style in different shades.Now, I never worry about what I'm wearing in the morning. Even if I do get a bit tired of just wearing the same classic pieces. (14)Overall, when it comes to work, you have to ask yourself with looking smarter can enhance my ability to do my job.For some, this question may not be an issue at all, especially if you work remotely and rarely see your colleagues or clients face to face. But if your job involves interacting with other people, the answer to this is often “yes”. (15) So rather than fighting the system, I think we should just do whatever helps us to achieve our goals at work. If that means playing it safe with your image, then let's face it. It's probably worth it.Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.Q 12. What do we learn about the speaker when she first started her job?Q 13. Why were uniforms invented according to the speaker?Q 14. What does the speakers say about looking smarter?Q 15. What does the speaker advise people to do in an image obsessed world?R ecording OneDid you know that Americans have approximately 3 times the amount of space we had 50 years ago? Therefore, you'd think would have sufficient room for all of our possessions. On the contrary, the personal storage business is now a growing industry. We've got triple the space, but we've become such enthusiastic consumers that we require even more. (16) This phenomenon has resulted in significant credit card debt, enormous environmental footprints, and perhaps not coincidentally our happiness levels have failed to increase over the same half century.I'm here to suggest an alternative. They’re having less might actually be a preferable decision. Many of us have experienced at some stage, the pleasure of possessing less. (17) I propose that less stuff and less space can not only help you economize, but also simplify your life. I recently started an innovative project to discover some creative solutions that offered me everything I required. By purchasing an apartment. There was 40 square meters i nstead of 60. I immediately saved $200,000. Smaller space leads to reduced utility bills and also a smaller carbon footprint, because it's designed around anedited collection of possessions, limited to my favorite stuff. I'm really excited to live there.How can we live more b asically? Firstly, we must briefly cut the unnecessary objects out of our lives to stem consumption. We should think before we buy and ask ourselves: W ill it truly make me happier? Obviously, we should possess some great stuff but w e want belongings that we’re going to love for years. Secondly, we require space efficiency. We want appliances that are design ed for use most of the time, not for occasional use. Why own a six burner when you really use even three burners?Finally, we need multifunctional spaces and housewares. I combined a movable wall with transforming furniture to get more out of my limited space. Consider my coffee table. It increases in size to accommodate ten. My office is tucked away, easily hidden. My bed simply pops out of the wall. For gas, I can relocate the movable wall and utilize the foldable guest beds I installed. I’m not saying we should all live in tiny apartments, but consider the benefits of an edited life. When you return home and walk through your front door, take a moment to ask yourselves. Could I do with a little life editing? Would that give me more freedom and more time?Question 16 to 18 are based on the recording y ou have just heard.Question 16. W hat has prevented American's happiness levels from increasing? Question 17. W hat things should we possess according to the speaker?Question 18.What do we learn about the items in the speaker’s home?Recording TwoN ow, believe it or not, (19) people sometimes lie in order to maintain a good, honest reputation, even if it hurts them to do so. At least, this is what a team of scientists is suggesting with evidence to prove it.P icture this scenario—you often drive for work and can be compensated for up to 400 miles per month. Most people at your company drive about 300 miles each month.But t his month you drove 400 miles. How many miles do you think you’d claim in your expense report? The scientists asked this exact question as part of the study we’re discussing today. W ith surprising results, they found that 12% of respondents reported the distance they drove as less than the actual figure, giving an average answer of 384 miles. In other words, they lied about the number of miles, even though they would forfeit money they were owed. The researchers believe this was to seem honest with the assumption being that others would be suspicious of a high expense claim.But why would people fabricate numbers to their own detriment?(20) The researchers explained that many people care a great deal about their reputation and how they’ll be judged by others.If they care enough, they’re concerned about appearing honest and not losing the respect of others—m aybe greater than their desire t o actually be honest. The researchers assert that the findings suggest that when people obtain very favorable outcomes, they anticipate other people’s suspicious reactions and prefer lying and appearing honest to telling the truth and appearing as selfish liars.So w hy is this research important? Well, e xperts generally agree there are two main types of lie—selfish lies and lies that are meant to benefit others. The first, as you may predict, is for selfish gain, such as submitting a fraudulent claim to an insurance company, w hile the second involves lying to help others or not offend others. For example, telling a friend whose outfit you don’t like that they look great. But the researchers are suggesting a third type of lying: lying to maintain a good reputation.Now this hypothesis is new, and some skeptics argue that this isn’t a whole new category of lie. (21)But the findings seem intuitive to me. After all, one of the main motivations for lying is to increase our worth in the eyes of others. So it seems highly likely that people will lie to seem honest.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the recording y ou have just heard.Question 19: What did a team of scientists find in their study?Question 20: why would people fabricate numbers to their own detriment according to the researchers?Question 21: What does the speaker think of the researchers findings?Recording Three(22) Why do old people dislike new music? As I’ve grown older, I often hear people my age say things like, “T hey just don’t make good music like t hey used to.”(22) Why does this happen? Luckily, psychology can give us some insights into this puzzle. Musical taste beg i n s crystallized as early as age 13 or 14. B y the time we’re in our early 20s, these tastes get locked into place pretty firmly.(23) In fact, studies have found that by the time we turn 33, most of us have stopped listening to new music. Meanwhile, popular songs released when you in the early teens are likely to remain quite popular among your age group for t he rest of your life. There could be a biological explanation for this. As there’s evidence that the brain’s ability to make subtle distinctions between different chords, rhythms, and melodies deteriorate rates with age, s o to older people, newer, less familiar songs might all sound the same.But there may be some simple r reasons for older people’s aversion to new music. (24) One of the most researched laws of social psychology is something called the “mere exposure effect”, which, in essence, means that the more we’re exposed to something, the more we tend to like it. This happens with people we know, the advertisements we see, and the songs we listen to.When you’re in your early teens, you probably spend a fair amount of time listening to music or watching music videos. Your favorite songs and artists become familiar, comforting parts of your routine. For many people over 30, job and family obligations increase. So there’s less time to spend discovering new music. Instead, many will simplylisten to old familiar favorites from that period of their lives when they had more f ree time.Of course, those teen years weren’t necessarily care f ree. They’re famously confusing, which is why so many TV shows and movies revolve around high school turmoil. Psychology research has shown that (25)the emotions that we experience as teens seem more intense than t hose that come later. And we also know that intense emotions are associated with stronger memories and preferences. Both of these might explain why the songs we listen to during this period become so memorable and beloved. So t here’s nothing wrong with your parents because t hey don’t like your music. Rather, it’s all part of the natural order of things.Questions22 to 25 are based on the recording y ou have just heard.Question 22. What does the speaker mainly discuss in this talk?Question 23. What have studies found about most people by the time they turn 33?Q uestion 24. What do we learn from one of the most researched laws of social psychology?Question 25.

【篇三】2020年12月大学英语六级听力考点
日常问候用语是考生必须熟练运用的知识，这与考生的口语操练有很大关系。

说促进听，是许多英语学习者的心得。

而且日常问候要视人而定，如英国人见面谈天气，美国人见面问身体等。

下面作详细介绍：
问候类(Greetings)
英语中的问候用语非常繁多，正式的通常有：
How do you do ?(初次见面通常用语)
How are you?(比较熟悉的人之间用语)
How are you getting along with...?(你近来...可好?)
How are you doing?(您工作还顺利吧?)
How is everything?(一切还好吧?)
How is your vacation/holiday(s)/Christmas Day/weekend?(假期怎么样?) 当今美国社会流行口语用语，大致有：
What's up?(近来可忙?)
Hello?Hi?
What's going on ?(近来可好?)
How is life?
How is it going?anything new?
Pleased to meet you again!
对以上问候的对答通常有How do you do!
Fine!Thank you，and you?
Every is fine!
I'm just great!
Very(quite)well，thank you!
Couldn't be better，thank you!
Not bad!
Can't complain!
Just soso.
值得一提的是，随着美语越来越广泛地渗透，听力中用美语朗读且以美国社会为背景的题材的趋势愈加明显。

考生要注意日常口语对话，及时吸取信息，将对听力有很大的帮助。

请看下面的对话：
A：Good morning, Ms Lucy. This is Betty, can you still remember me?
B：Betty? Is it really? Surely I remember you. You are my good friend, and I haven't seen you for ages, but how are you?
A：Fine, I'm just fine, Ms Lucy...。
