2013年06月英语六级完型卷一Nowadays, incoming generations really rely now on the power of the Internet when it comes to searching for information. Just type the word or phrase youre62 lookingfor and click, there goes your answer. So why63 botherwasting time turning the pages of encyclopedias if in just a snap of a finger you have what you neededPeople underestimate the power of encyclopedias. Well, technically, all of them are64 primarysources which means, they are like the walls that can fully support your data. They are first hand accounts done by professionals and65 scholars.On the other hand, Internet information Im not saying all of them, are66 majoritysecondary, or third handsources67 whichbasically means that they have been edited or68 modified.They maybe data collected from several sources and were put together. However, the problem here is the errors which the writer or the author69 committed. He/she may have different under standing on the data than you,70 whenyou have actually seen the data. So it is like youre just a kid listening to others story instead of you telling your own.71 Asidefrom that, youre not 100% sure that the author is72 reliable. He/she maybe just a kid posting and posting wrong ideas for73 fun.What I would like to74 conveyhere is that manual research is still stronger than any other. There is freedom in it, freedom to give your75 analysis, under standing, insights towards these first-based ideas. You also type your work76 aftergathering the data so you become more77 familiarizedwith it because writing is the last stage of learning since you make an output out of your78 input. Unlike the one in the Internet, some people also tend to copy-paste their works79 withoutever reading them. So they dont absorb80 whatmust be absorbed. As they say, No Pain, No Gain, so working hard with your research will surely be a81 compactedand a strong one.卷二2013年6月六级完型真题In most cultures throughout the world, there is an expectation that when a person reaches adulthood, marriage should soon follow.

Even worse, it _62_ terrifies _ our kids.Al Gore famously _63_ depicted _ how a sea-level rise of 20 feet would almost completely flood Florida, New York, Holland, and Shanghai, _64 even though _the United Nations says that such a thing will not even happen, _65 estimating _ that sea levels will rise 20 times less than that.When _66 confronted _ with these exaggerations, some of us say that they are for a good cause, and surely _67_ there _ is no harm done if the result is that we focus even more on tackling climate change.This _68 argument _ is astonishingly wrong. Such exaggerations do plenty of harm. Worrying _69 excessively _ about global warming means that we worry less about other things, where we could do so much more good. We focus, _70 for example _, on global warmings impact on malaria (疟疾)-which will put slightly more people at _71 risk _ in 100 years - instead of tackling the half a billion people _72 suffering _from malaria today with prevention and treatment policies that are much cheaper and dramatically more effective than carbon reduction would be._73 Exaggeration _ also wears out the publics willingness to tackle global warming. If the planet is _74 doomed _, people wonder, why do anything? A record 54% of American voters now believe the news media make global warming appear worse than it really is. A _75 majority _ of people now believe incorrectly that global warming is not even caused by humans.But the _76 worst _ cost of exaggeration, I believe, is the unnecessary alarm that it causes particularly _77 among _ children. An article in The Washington Post cited nine-year-old Alyssa, who cries about the possibility of mass animal _78 extinctions _ from global warming.The newspaper also reported that parents are _79 searching for _ productive outlets for their eight-year-olds obsessions (忧心忡忡) with dying polar bears. They might be better off educating them and letting them know that, contrary _80to_ common belief, the global polar bear population has doubled and perhaps even quadrupled (成为四倍) over the past half- century, to about 22,000. _81 despite _ diminishing - and eventually disappearing - summer Arctic ice, polar bears will not become extinct.62.

C. terrifies 考查动词辨析。exhaust 表示“使筋疲力尽，用尽”；suppress表示“镇压，抑制”；terrify 表示“使惊吓”；disgust表示“使反感”。前文表明关于气候变暖的惊悚报道让我们感到恐惧，更糟糕的是，它吓到了我们的孩子们。63. D. depicted考查动词辨析。dismiss表示“开除，解散”；distract表示“使分心，分散”；deposit表示“储蓄，寄存”；depict表示“描绘，描述”。64. B. even though 考查连词。题考查考生对上下句关系的理解，上半句Al Gore讲述海平面上升20英尺会几乎完全淹没佛罗里达、纽约、荷兰和上海，后半句讲联合国说这种事不会发生，由此可见前后句是转折的关系，所以用even though，表示“尽管”；而as if表示“似乎”；in that表示“因为”；in case表示“以防”。65. C. estimating 考查动词。measure表示“测量，估量”；signify表示“意味，预示”；estimate表示“估计，预测”；extract表示“提取”。空格所在的句子说联合国认为淹没事件不会发生，同时预测海平面只会上升20英尺的二十分之一。66. A. Confronted 考查动词。be confronted with为固定短语，表示“面临（困难、危险等）”。67. B. there 考查there be句型。由句中的连词and可知前后必须都是句子，表示某个现象或东西存在用there be句型。68. C. argument 考查名词。morality表示“道德，伦理”；interaction表示“相互沟通，相互作用”；argument表示“争论，辩论”；dialogue表示“对话”；文章前面两段都是在讲Al Gore与联合国不同的观点，因此这里填争论。69. D. excessively 考查副词辨析。prevalently表示“流行地，普遍地
