We learn that getting an education will (27) how much money weearn later in life and that swimming beyond the reef may bring an unhappy (28) with a shark.Second, people also learn that such (29) of cause and effect are probabilistic in nature. That is,the effects occur more often when the causes occur than when the causes are (30) -but not always.(31), students learn that studying hard (32) good grades in most instances, but not every time.Science makes these concepts of causality and probability more explicit and (33)techniques fordealing (34) them more rigorously than does causal human inquiry. It sharpens the skills wealready have by making us more conscious, rigorous, and explicit in our inquiries.In looking at ordinary human inquiry, we need to (35) between prediction and understanding.Often, we can make predictions without understanding. And often, even if we don’ t understan why, we are willing to act (36) the basis of a demonstrated predictive ability.Whatever the primitive drives or instincts that (37) human beings, satisfying them dependsheavily on the ability to predict future circumstances. The attempt to predict is often played in a(38)of knowledge and understanding. If you can understand why things are related to one another,why certain regular patterns (39), you can predict better than if you simply observe and rememberthose patterns. Thus, human inquiry aims (40) answering both“ what” and“ why” questions, we pursue these goals by observing and figuring out.21. [A] exhibit [ B] exaggerate[C] examine [D] exceed22.

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

全国英语六级考试完形填空模拟练习附答案

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

The possibility of earning a fixed 12 in a factory or office was more attractive than the possibility of staying on the farm and having one's work 13 by frost, storms, or droughts. Furthermore, the development of agricultural machinery made it possible for fewer people to do the same 14 of work.Thus, at the same time when the industrial revolution made it possible to produce goods more 15 and more quickly in factories, agricultural revolution also took place. Instead of leaving fields empty every third year, farmers began to plant clover or some other crop that would 16 the soil. Instead of using only animal fertilizer, farmers began to use chemical fertilizers to keep the soilrich. These methods have enabled French farmers, for example, to get five times as much wheat as was 17 from the same land two centuries ago.In many countries farmers find it more 18 to raise only one crop or one kind of animal. They choose the kind that gives the best results. Then they sell all that they produce, instead of trying to grow a little of everything and consume what they grow.

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

It could also be the extra calories, fat and unhealthy eating choices that may come with (2) __________drinking.A recent study found that men consume an (3)__________ 433 calories (equivalent to a McDonald's double cheeseburger) on days they drink a moderate amount of alcohol. About 61% of the caloric increase comes from the alcohol itself. Men also report eating higher amounts of saturated fats and meat, and less fruit and milk, on those days than on days when they aren't drinking, the study showed.Women fared a bit better, taking in an extra 300 calories on moderate-drinking days, from the alcohol and eating fattier foods. But women's increase in calories from additional eating wasn't statistically significant, the study said.'Men and women ate less healthily on days they drank alcohol,' said Rosalind Breslow, an epidemiologist with the federal National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism and lead author of the study. 'Poorer food choices on drinking days have public-health (4)__________,' she said.The findings dovetail with controlled lab studies in which (5)__________ generally eat more food after consuming alcohol. Researchers suggest that alcohol may enhance 'the short-term rewarding effects' of consuming food, according to a 2010 report in the journal Physiology & Behavior that reviewed previous studies on alcohol, appetite and obesity.But other studies have pointed to a different trend. Moderate drinkers gain less weight over time than either heavy drinkers or people who abstain from alcohol, particularly women, this research has shown. Moderate drinking is (6) __________having about two drinks a day for men and one for women.'People who gain the least weight are moderate drinkers, regardless of [alcoholic] beverage choice,' said Eric Rimm, an associate professor of epidemiology and nutrition at Harvard Medical School and chairman of the 2010 review of alcohol in the federal dietary (7)__________.

At seven calories per gram, alcohol is closer to fat than to carbohydrate or protein in caloric content, she said.

To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have 6 meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 7 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 8 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 9 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 11 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 12 , which moves a bar or curtain down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 13 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 14 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 15 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 16 your comprehension will improve.

The wish to guard against dangers to life and property is basic to human nature. By using various kinds of insurance, society has been able to reduce the effects of such hazards.Nowhere is insurance more important than in the management of a business. In many instances, losses in a small firm can mean the difference between growth and failure, vitality and stagnation (停滞).Very few small businesses have even a portion of the financial resources available to larger enterprises. Frequently, they must operate on a very slight margin if they hope to stay in business. And thus, they are particularly sensitive to unexpected losses.Without enough insurance, what happens to such a firm when the owner dies or is suddenly disabled? When a fire breaks out and destroys the firm's building or stock? When an employee is found to have stolen company funds? When a customer is awarded a liability judgment for an accident? Too often, the business is forced to the wall, its future operations drastically curbed; sometimes, it is damaged beyond repair, its ability to continue completely crushed.Almost always, a small businessman would find it impossible to handle the full burden of his potential risk. The amount of money he would have to set aside to cover possible losses would leave him nothing, or almost nothing, to run his business with. If loss were to occur which he could repair by using his reserve fund, what assurance would he have that another loss—the same kind or different—might not occur next week, next month? But then he would have no reserve fund and little likelihood of staying in business at all.26. This selection deals mainly with_______.A. the relation between insurance and societyB. accidents and lossesC. business failuresD. the importance of insurance to business27. In Paragraph 3, "forced to the wall" means "_______".A. driven to despairB. staying in a strong positionC. doing wellD. climbing up28. The author thinks that_______.A. accidents always happenB. a businessman should take risksC. businesses should have adequate insuranceD. insurance is a social welfare project29. Adequate insurance will do all of the following EXCEPT that it will_______.A. free some business fundsB. add to benefits for employeesC. relieve some management problemsD. provide for unexpected incidents30. The word "curbed" in Paragraph 3 is nearest in meaningto_______.A. checkedB. advancedC. expandedD. disturbed参考答案26. D 27. A 28. C 29. B 30.

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

英语六级完形填空真题演练附答案英语六级完形填空真题演练附答案While there is life there is hope.以下是店铺为大家搜索整理的英语六级完形填空真题演练附答案,希望能给大家带来帮助!In the early days of nuclear power, the United States make money on it. But today opponents (反对者 ) have so complicated its development that no nuclear plants have been ordered or built here in 12 years.The greatest fear of nuclear power opponents has always been a reactor "meltdown". Today, the chances of a meltdown that would threaten U. S. public health are very little. But to even further reduce the possibility, engineers are testing new reactors that rely not on human judgment to shut them down but on the laws of nature. Now General Electric is already building two advanced reactors in Japan. But don't expect them even on U. S. shores unless things change in Washington.The procedure for licensing nuclear power plants is a bad dream. Any time during, or even after, construction, an objection by any group or individual can bring everything to a halt while the matter is investigated or taken to court. Meanwhile, the builder must add nice-but-not-necessary improvements, some of which force him to knock down walls and start over. In every case when a plant has been opposed, the Nuclear Regulation Commission has ultimately granted a license to construct or operate. But the victory often costs so much that the utility ends up abandoning the plant anyway.A case in point is the Shoreham plant on New York's Long Island. Shoreham was a virtual twin to the Millstone plant in Connecticut, both ordered in the mid-60's. Millstone, completedfor $ 101 million, has been generating electricity for two decades. Shoreham, however, was singled out by antinuclear activists who, by sending in endless protests, drove the cost over $ 5 billion and delayed its use for many years.Shoreham finally won its operation license. But the plant has never produced a watt power. Governor Mario Cuomo, an opponent of a Shoreham start up, used his power to force New York's public-utilities commission to accept the following settlement: the power company could pass the cost of Shoreham along to its consumers only if it agreed not to operate the plant. I'oday, a perfectly good facility, capable of servicing hundreds of thousands of homes, sits rusting.21.The author's attitude toward the development of nuclear power is______.A. negativeB. neutralC. positiveD. questioning22.What has made the procedure for licensing nuclear power plants a bad dream?A. The inefficiency of the Nuclear Regulation Commission.B. The enormous cost of construction and operation.C. The length of time it takes to make investigations.D. The objection of the opponents of nuclear power.23.It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that______.A. there are not enough safety measures in the U. S. for running new nuclear power plantsB. it is not technical difficulties that prevent the building of nuclear power plants in the U. S.C. there are already more nuclear power plants than necessary in the U. S.D. the American government will not allow Japanese nuclearreactors to be installed in the U. S.24. Governor Mario Cuomo's chief intention in proposing the settlement was to_______.A. stop the Shoreham plant from going into operationB. urge the power company to further increase its power supplyC. permit the Shoreham plant to operate under certain conditionsD. help the power company to solve its financial problems25. The phrase "single out" is closest in meaning to_______.A. delayB. end upC. completeD. separate答案:21. C 22. D 23. B 24. A 25. D。

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

英语四六级完形填空模拟题及答案六From childhood to old age, we all use language as a means of broadening our knowledge of ourselves and the world about us.

They 5 that our highly evolved brain provides us 6 an innate language ability not found in lower 7 . Proponents of this innateness theory say that our 8 for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, 9 a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore there are critical 10 times for language development.Current 11 of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. 12 , more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in 13 grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being 14 to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 15 of their firstlanguage have become firmly fixed.16 some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been 17 from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that 18 with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 19 than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. 20 , children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their child's language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.1. A.generated B.evolved C.born D.originated2.
