六级完型20篇(有答案与详细解析)

1．Historically, humans get serious about avoiding disasters only after one has just struck them. __62__ that logic, 2006 should have been a breakthrough year for rational behavior. With the memory of 9/11 still __63__ in their minds, Americans watched hurricane Katrina, the most expensive disaster in U.S. history, on __64__ TV. Anyone who didn't know it before should have learned that bad things can happen. And they are made __65__ worse by our willful blindness to risk as much as our __66__ to work together before everything goes to hell.

Granted, some amount of delusion(错觉)is probably part of the __67__ condition. In A.D. 63, Pompeii was seriously damaged by an earthquake, and the locals immediately went to work __68__, in the same spot-until they were buried altogether by a volcano eruption 16 years later. But a __69__ of the past year in disaster history suggests that modern Americans are particularly bad at __70__ themselves from guaranteed threats. We know more than we __71__ did about the dangers we face. But it turns __72__ that in times of crisis, our greatest enemy is __73__ the storm, the quake or the __74__ itself. More often it is ourselves.

So what has happened in the year that __75__ the disaster on the Gulf Coast? In New Orleans, the Army Corps of Engineers has worked day and night to rebuild the flood walls. They have got the walls to __76__ they were before Katrina, more or less. That’s not __77__,we can now say with confidence. But it may be all __78__ can be expected from one year of hustle(忙碌).

Meanwhile, New Orleans officials have crafted a plan to use buses and trains to __79__ the sick and the disabled. The city estimates that 15,000 people will need a __80__ out.However,state officials have not yet determined where these people will be taken. The __81__ with neighboring communities are on going and difficult.

62 A To B By C On D For

参考答案及解析:

B 62. A) To B) By C) On D) For

介词辨析。通过对前句的分析理解，知道人性的本质-只有在遭受了痛苦之后才会重视痛苦，于是后句紧跟的连词应该是表示解释说明，而to为至于，on为在...上面，for为因果连词，只有by可以表示通过。

A 63. A) fresh B) obvious C) apparent D) evident

词义辨析。考生初看本题以为考察的是obvious, apparent, evident的词义辨析，三个词都表示明显的意思，但是根据文章的意思，此处应该是表示记忆犹新的意思，因此只有一个fresh表示的是新鲜。

C 64. A) visual B) vivid C) live D) lively

词义辨析。本题考察更多的是常识性的问题。Live这个单词除了有生活的意思之外，还有现场直播的意思。而剩余的混淆项完全是在误导学生，visual为视觉的，vivid为生动活泼的，lively为活泼的意思。

D 65. A) little B) less C) more D) much

词义辨析。在比较级前面添加副词，只能用副词原级，不能再用比较级。B和C显然错误。根据文章的感情色彩，文章表示的是贬义，在嘲笑人们喜欢做马后炮的事情，因此用much不用little.

A 66. A) reluctance B) rejection C) denial D) decline

词义辨析。Reluctance不情愿，rejection拒绝denial否定decline 拒绝。本题一看也仿佛是辨析BCD三个表示否定的词义。但是通过分析这个复杂句我们看到了前面的一个关键词willful blindness. 这个词组近年来在欧美属于流行词汇，频繁的出现在各大媒体中。他的英文解释是Willful blindness is a term used in law to describe a situation in which an individual seeks to avoid civil or criminal liability for a wrongful act by intentionally putting himself in a position where he will be unaware of facts.中文解释简单来说就是"装傻"。而复杂句可以翻译成，因为人们都在装傻事情变得更糟糕，除非真的死到临头了，否则人们都会尽最大可能不合作。而这里用reluctance，正好和前面的willful成反义词对应。

D 67. A) natural B) social C) world D) human

词义辨析。与其说这个是考察词义辨析，不如说是在超越大学生的理解能力考察一个固定搭配human condition.看到这个搭配，学生的瞬间逻辑推理是人为因素，但是实际该词组表示人的生存条件的意思。

C 68. A) revising B) refining C) rebuilding D) retrieving

词义辨析。Revising修订，refining提炼，rebuilding重建，retrieving重新得到。地震之后要干什么呢？当然就是重建了。因此这种题目关键是看句子前面的连词and.

A 69. A) review B) reminder C) concept D) prospect

词义辨析。Review回顾，reminder提醒，暗示，concept概念，prospect希望。句子开头一个强转折BUT，表示后面要说的和前面的内容是相反的意思。同时，后面有一个history，通过这个单词就知道前面用review。

C 70. A) preparing B) protesting C) protecting D) prevailing

固定搭配。protect sb. from sth 保护某人免受某事。Prepare准备，protest抗议，prevail流行，成功。

B 71. A) never B) ever C) then D) before

词义辨析。对于我们所面临的灾难，我们比以前知道的更多。本句中did是用助动词取代实意动词know。因此这里的连词只能用ever表示以前，而before做副词时一定放在句末或后跟名词。

D 72. A) up B) down C) over D) out

固定搭配。Turn out that/ turn out to be sth 证明。Turn up出现，turn down拒绝，turn over营业额/反复考虑

B 73. A) merely B) rarely C) incidentally D) accidentally

词义辨析。本题涉及两组词，一个是merely和rarely，merely表示仅仅，只不过的意思，rarely表示极少，罕有的意思。而incidentally和accidentally均表示巧合。关键在于区分merely和rarely就可以得出答案。

A 74. A) surge B) spur C) surf D) splash

词义辨析。本题实际考察的单词是形近且意思相差很远的一些单词。Surge表示汹涌澎湃，做动词有急速上升的意思spur刺激，穿刺surf海浪，做动词有冲浪的意思splash溅。这种考察方法很常见但是对同学做题来说很容易。

C 75.A) ensued B) traced C) followed D) occurred

B 76.A) which B) where C) what D) when

where引导的从句作介词to的宾语

A 77.A) enough B) certain C) conclusive D) final

C 78.A) but B) as C) that D) those

B 79. A) exile B) evacuate C) dismiss D) displace

A 80.A) ride B) trail C) path D) track

ride out "安全过渡"，track out "追踪"

D 81.A) conventions B) notifications C) communications D) negotiations

2．Many theories concerning the causes of juvenile delinquency (crimes committed by young people) focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence.

65.答案:C[精解] 形容词辨义题。该空的信息点在后文“but it is still a common childhood disease in developing countries。”所以可推断该句应该与后句形成对比，即“软骨病目前在西方发达国家已不多见。”故选C)。

66.答案:A[精解] 动词辨义题。该句意在说明软骨病还会引起骨痛，虚弱和牙齿问题。与前文构成递进关系。故选择A)。

67.答案:A[精解] 名词辨义题。此处是一个名词的并列。前文提到骨痛，虚弱和牙齿问题，所以可以推断此处所指的应该也是一种疾病。muscle loss意为肌肉损伤。故本题答案为A)。

68.答案:C[精解] 形容词辨义题。此处想要表达“硬化症是一种中枢神经的慢性病”。选项中的四个词都可表示“慢”的意思。但是progressive“渐进的”可用来表示疾病，更准确。故本题答案为C)。

69.答案:B[精解] 动词辨义题。该句意在表达硬化症作为一种慢性病，影响着全球两百万余人的健康。故选择B) affects。

70.答案:A[精解] 名词辨义题。此处很明显意在表达硬化症是无法治愈的。cure意为“治愈”，故本题答案为A)。

71.答案:B[精解] 名词辨义题。答题点在第四段提到的“Vitamin D might protect against multiple sclerosis，also called MS．”故此句表达的应该是“维他命D含量高的人们得硬化症的机率会较低。”故选择B)rates“几率”。

72.答案:A[精解] 连词辨义题。本句实际上是一个对比结构。从本句第一个“lower”可以判断。该句意在表达“维他命含量最高的人群与含量最低的人群相比，患硬化症的可能性会降低62%。”故选择比较连词A)than。

73.答案:D[精解] 名词辨义题。前文提到维他命D能很好的预防硬化症，故此处意在表示“维他命D今后很有可能成为治疗硬化症的方法。”故选择D)treatment“疗法”。

74.答案:B[精解] 固定搭配题。此处意在表明“科学家们首先要进行一系列的试验。”carry out固定搭配意为“实行，进行”，故本题答案为B)。

75.答案:A精解] 动词辨义题。此处考查省略结构。该空前提到“some people get vitamin D”，意在说明在即将进行的试验中会有一部分人服用维他命D，一部分人不服用，以对比效果。故此处应选择do not来代替“some people do not get vitamin D”。故选择A)。

76.答案:C[精解] 名词辨义题。前文提到很多关于维他命D能够预防硬化症，甚至有可能成为治疗方法的发现。但此处话锋稍转意在表明目前对维他命D与硬化症之间的关系还未有定论。故选择C)。

7.答案:B[精解] 动词辨义题。本句意在说明诸多研究都为维他命D与硬化症之间的联系提供了证明。故本题答案为。

79.答案:A[精解] 情态动词辨义题。该空的答题点在于后文“but it says more human studies are needed．．．”，故对于维他命D能否抵抗癌症，作者的态度不该是完全肯定的。因此应选择A)may“可能”。

80.答案:A[精解] 名词辨义题。文章最后一句是本空的提示点：对于缺乏维他命D是否会提高癌症的发病率，还需更进一步研究证明。所以本句描述的应该是维他命D与癌症之间的关系。故选择A)cancer。

81.答案:C[精解] 动词辨义题。前句提出目前研究发现维他命D也许能够抵抗癌症。本句意在讲述“缺乏维生素D 与癌症发病率的关系”，所以从上句的科学研究发现可知维生素D的缺乏有可能提高，而不是降低癌症发病率，故本题答案为C)。

5．From childhood to old age, we all use language as a means ofbroadening our knowledge of ourselve s and the world aboutus.When humans first 1 , they were like newborn children,unable to use this 2 tool

.Yet once language developed, thepossibilities for human kind‘s future 3 and cultural growthincreased.

Many linguists believe that evolution is 4 for our ability toproduce and use language.They 5 that our highly evolved brain provides us 6 an innate languageability not found in lower 7 . Proponents of this in nateness theory say that our 8 for language isinborn, but that language itself develops gradually,

9 a function of the growth of the brain duringchildhood.Therefore there are critical 10 times for languag

e development.

Current 11 of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence ofsome innat e abilities is undeniable.12 , more and more schools are discovering that foreignlanguages are best taug ht in 13 grades.Young children often can learn several languages by being14 to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 15 of theirfirst language have become firmly fix ed.

16 some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically ina vacu um.Children who have been 17 from other human beings do not possess language.Thisdemonstrates th at 18 with other human beings isnecessary for proper languagedevelopment.Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 19 than anyinnate capacities.These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior.

20 , children learnlanguage from their parents by imitating them.Parents gradually shape their child's la nguage skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.

1.【答案】B【解析】此处意为：当人类刚刚开始进化，他们如同新生儿一样不会运用语言这种工具。evolved逐渐发展，进化符合题意。generated生殖，发展；born (bear的过去分词)不能作谓语动词；originated起源，不能用first修饰。

2.【答案】A【解析】根据语法分析，答案应用来修饰语言的。valuable珍贵的；appropriate合适的，适当的；convenient方便的，便利的；favorite最喜欢的。语言并不是人类选择的结果，而是人类在进化过程中慢慢发展起来的，对人类来说，应当是珍贵的。

3.【答案】A【解析】此处意思是：语言的发展增加了人类未来的成就和文化进步的可能性。attainments成就；feasibility可行性；entertainments娱乐；evolution进化。

4.【答案】D【解析】此处意为：许多语言学家认为进化使人们产生和具备了语言的能力。固定短语be responsible for对……负责，是……的原由。其它选项不与for搭配。

5.【答案】C 【解析】根据语法分析,空格后应是一个宾语从句，而A，B，D三项后都不能接从句做直接宾语。confirm(确认)+名词；inform(通知)sb.of sth.；convince(使某人确信) sb.of sth.

6.【答案】D 【解析】固定搭配provide sb.with sth.意为“向(人)提供(物)”

7.【答案】B【解析】此处意为：我们高度发达的大脑是我们具备了其它低等动物所不具备的语言能力。显然，这里是把人和低等动物相比较。因此选organisms有机体，生物体。

8.【答案】A 【解析】此句意思是：人类的语言能力是与生俱来的，但语言本身也在逐渐发展，所以这种能力应该是潜在的。potential潜力；performance履行；preference偏爱；passion激情。

9.【答案】A 【解析】此句句义是：语言本身作为童年时期大脑生长的一种功能，其发展是缓慢的。as (作为，当作)合乎题意。Like作为介词的意思是“像……一样”。

10.【答案】B【解析】此句意为：语言的发展有一个关键期，人体的成长是生物变化的过程。biological生物的；ideological思想上的；social社会的；psychological心理的。

11.【答案】A 【解析】此处意为：目前人们对“先天论”评论观点不一，但是支持某些天生能力的证据却是确凿无疑的。reviews评论；reference参考；reaction反应；recommendation推荐。

12.【答案】C【解析】从11题可看出，作者是倾向于先天论的，为了进一步证明先天论是有道理的，作者选择了以学校为例加以说明，因此这里应填一个表示递进关系的词Indeed(甚至)。

13.【答案】D 【解析】此处意思是：越来越多的学校发现在什么年级学外语较容易，根据常识(低年级学外语较容易)以及后文的Young children often can learn several languages by being 14 to them, while adults…可以选定答案。

14.【答案】B 【解析】此处意为：通过接触多种语言，孩子们可以学会好几种语言。be exposed to是固定搭配，接触到。reveal(显露)sth.to sb，不合题意，因本题中的them指languages。其余选项不与to搭配。engage in从事；be involved in参与。

15.【答案】C 【解析】此句意思是：一旦母语的规则被深深印入脑海中，成年人就很难再学好另一种语言。rules规则，规律；regulations规定；formations构成，构造；constitutions宪法，章程。

16.【答案】A【解析】分析上下文的逻辑关系，从句意思是：语言的某些方面肯定是先天的。主句意思是：语言不会在与人隔绝的状况下自行发展。前后应为转折关系。

17.【答案】D【解析】此句意为：与人隔绝的儿童不能掌握好一门语言。isolated孤立的，与人隔绝的；distinguished区别的，杰出的；different不同的；protected受到保护的。

18.【答案】D 【解析】此句总结前几句，意为：必须通过与他人交往，语言才能够发展。interaction相互作

用；exposition暴露；comparison比较；contrast对比。

19.【答案】A【解析】根据分析，本句中的“this”和“even more basic”分别指代上句的“interaction with other human beings”和“necessary”，此处所填词对应上文中的language development。也就是说，language acquisition语言习得。appreciation欣赏,感激；requirement要求；alternative转移，转变，转换。

20.【答案】C 【解析】本句功能是以另一种方式解释前文中的“imitative, learned behavior.(模仿性的后天行为)”。In other words换言之，换句话说；As a result结果是；After all毕竟；Above all首先。

6。 A translator must have an excellent, up-to-date knowledge of his source languages.He must fill facility in the handling of his target language, which will be his mother tongue or language of habitual __1__, and a knowledge and understanding of the latest subject-matter in his field of specialization.

Bearing in __13__ the nature of the translator’s work, i.e. the processing of the written word, it is, strictly speaking, __14__ that he should be able to speak the languages he is __15__ with.

If he does speak them, it is an __16__ rather than a hindrance(障碍), but this skill is in many ways a

luxury that he can do away with. It is, __17__, desirable that he should have an __18__ idea about the pronunciation of his source languages, even if this is restricted to knowing how proper names and place names are pronounced. The same __19__ to an ability to write his source languages. If he can, well and good; if he cannot, it does not __20__.
