1、大学英语六级改革适用（阅读）模拟试卷 198及答案与解析 Section C 0 The world-famous Belgian has arrived in Britain with his equally famous dog for a five-month stay nearly 70 years after his first visit. Tintin, the eternally youthful reporter who only was ever known to file one story in all his adventures, is celebrating hi

2、s 75th birthday this year with a new exhibition at Londons National Maritime Museum. Tintin at Sea is a collection of original drawings by Belgian cartoonist Georges Remi more commonly known as Herge which was the French-speaking pronunciation of his reversed initial RG and some of the artifacts and

3、 models that inspired him. “Herge had a lifelong fascination with the sea and was above all a person who insisted on detail,“ the museums director Roy Clare told reporters at a preview of the exhibition which opens to the public on Wednesday and runs to September 5. Tintin, with his trademark quiff

4、and plus-four trousers, traveled all over the world on adventures that took him and his white terrier known as Snowy in English and Milou in French from Tibet to America and Iceland to Africa. Books of his adventures have been translated into 60 languages and have sold 200 million copies since the c

5、omic strip character first saw the light of day in 1929. Although the stories took Tintin and his irascible companion Captain Haddock as far as the moon, the sea is a recurring theme, in stories such as The Crab with the Golden Claws, Red Rackhams Treasure and The Secrets of the Unicorn. Herge, who

6、only traveled widely after the success of his creation, was a self-taught artist. He stayed in Belgium through World War Two and was accused and cleared of collaboration immediately afterwards, although he suffered a period of being an exile as a result. He was also accused of racism in some of Tint

7、ins earlier adventures. The reporter only once travelled to Britain, in the story The Black Isle, published in 1938. “Here you have four famous Belgians,“ Joren Vandeweyer, the countrys cultural attache(大使随 员 )to Britain, told reporters. “Tintin, Snowy, Captain Haddock and of course Herge himself, b

8、ack after 66 years.“ 1 What can we learn about the exhibition in London? （ A） The exhibition is intended to mark Remis creation of Tintin. （ B） Tintin at Sea is a new collection that is promoted in the exhibition. （ C） Remi, the Belgian cartoonist, attends the exhibition with his dog. （ D） The exhib

9、ition, which lasted five months, has just ended. 2 Being a reporter, Tintin can best be described as a(n)_ one. （ A） inexperienced （ B） inefficient （ C） adventurous （ D） courageous 3 Which of the following is true about Tintins adventures? （ A） Tintin had extended his adventure from the earth to the

10、 outer space. （ B） Tintin had been to Milou, Tibet and Iceland for adventure. （ C） Snowy was Tintins most faithful companion during his adventures. （ D） Captain Haddock hadnt joined Tintins adventures at sea. 4 What happened to Herge during World War Two? （ A） He was exiled for being accused of trea

11、son and racism. （ B） He worked with other cartoonists on Tintins adventures. （ C） He was forced to leave Belgian for some time. （ D） He criticized racism through Tintins adventures. 5 Tintin made his earliest visit to Britain _. （ A） right after he had earned global fame （ B） for the first exhibitio

12、n 66 years ago （ C） before the first English Tintin story （ D） in one of Herges stories 5 To say that the child learns by imitation and that the way to teach is to set a good example oversimplifies. No child imitates every action he sees. Sometimes, the example the parent wants him to follow is igno

13、red while he takes over contrary patterns from some other example. Therefore we must turn to a more subtle theory than “Monkey see, monkey do“. Look at it from the childs point of view. Here he is in a new situation, lacking a ready response. He is seeking a response which will gain certain ends. If

14、 he lacks a ready response for the situation, and cannot reason out what to do, he observes a model who seems able to get the right result. The child looks for an authority or expert who can show what to do. There is a second element at work in this situation. The child may be able to attain his imm

15、ediate goal only to find that his method brings criticism from people who observe him. When shouting across the house achieves his immediate end of delivering a message, he is told emphatically that such a racket(叫嚷 )is unpleasant, that he should walk into the next room and say his say quietly. Thus

16、, the desire to solve any objective situation is overlaid with the desire to solve it properly. One of the early things the child learns is that he gets more affection and approval when his parents like his response. Then other adults award some actions and criticize others. If one is to maintain th

17、e support of others and his own self-respect, he must adopt responses his social group approves. In finding trial responses, the learner does not choose models at random. He imitates the person who seems a good person to be like, rather than a person whose social status he wished to avoid. If the pu

18、pil wants to be good violinist, he will observe and try to copy the techniques of capable players; while some other person may most influence his approach to books. Admiration of one quality often leads us to admire a person as a whole, and he becomes an identifying figure. We use some people as mod

19、els over a wide range of situations, imitating much that they do. We learn that they are dependable and rewarding models because imitating them leads to success. 6 By the last sentence of the first paragraph, the author _. （ A） compares childrens behaviors to monkeys （ B） tells us that children do n

20、ot learn by imitation （ C） thinks it is partial to regard imitation as “Monkey see, monkey do“ （ D） means that children should not learn by imitating their parents 7 The first element at work when a child learns by imitation is _. （ A） the need to find a way to attain the desired goal （ B） the desir

21、e to be acknowledged by his social group （ C） the desire to find an expert and authority （ D） the need to find a way to avoid criticism 8 According to the third paragraph, besides achieving his goals, a child should also learn to _. （ A） attain his desired results as soon as possible （ B） show his l

22、ove for his parents and friends （ C） talk in a low voice （ D） behave properly 9 It can be inferred that children usually imitate people _. （ A） who do not scold them （ B） who they want to be like （ C） who have a high social status （ D） who give them many rewards 10 The last two paragraphs are mainly

23、 about _. （ A） how children learn by imitation （ B） the motive of childrens imitation （ C） how children choose models （ D） how imitation influence childrens growth 10 It is hardly necessary for me to cite all the evidence of the depressing state of literacy. These figures from the Department of Educ

24、ation are sufficient: 27 million Americans cannot read at all, and a further 35 million read at a level that is less than sufficient to survive in our society. But my own worry today is less that of the overwhelming problem of elemental literacy than it is of the slightly more luxurious problem of t

25、he decline in the skill even of the middle-class reader, of his unwillingness to afford those spaces of silence, those luxuries of domesticity and time and concentration, that surround the image of the classic act of reading. It has been suggested that almost 80 percent of Americas literate, educate

26、d teenagers can no longer read without an accompanying noise(music)in the background or a television screen flickering(闪烁 )at the corner of their field of perception. We know very little about the brain and how it deals with simultaneous conflicting input, but every common-sense intuition suggests w

27、e should be profoundly alarmed. This violation of concentration, silence, solitude(独处的状态 )goes to the very heart of our notion of literacy; this new form of part-reading, of part-perception against background distraction, renders impossible certain essential acts of apprehension and concentration, l

28、et alone that most important tribute any human being can pay to a poem or a piece of prose he or she really loves, which is to learn it by heart. Not by brain, by heart; the expression is vital. Under these circumstances, the question of what future there is for the arts of reading is a real one. Ah

29、ead of us lie technical, psychic(心理的 ), and social transformations probably much more dramatic than those brought about by Gutenberg, the German inventor in printing. The Gutenberg revolution, as we now know it, took a long time; its effects are still being debated. The information revolution will t

30、ouch every fact of composition, publication, distribution, and reading. No one in the book industry can say with any confidence what will happen to the book as weve known it. 11 The picture of the reading ability of the American people, drawn by the author, is _. （ A） rather bleak （ B） fairly bright

31、 （ C） very impressive （ D） quite encouraging 12 The authors biggest concern is _. （ A） elementary school childrens disinterest in reading classics （ B） the surprisingly low rate of literacy in the U.S. （ C） the musical setting American readers require for reading （ D） the reading ability and reading

32、 behavior of the middle class 13 A major problem with most adolescents who can read is _. （ A） their fondness of music and TV programs （ B） their ignorance of various forms of art and literature （ C） their lack of attentiveness and basic understanding （ D） their inability to focus on conflicting inp

33、ut 14 The author claims that the best way a reader can show admiration for a piece of poetry or prose is _. （ A） to be able to appreciate it and memorize it （ B） to analyze its essential features （ C） to think it over conscientiously （ D） to make a fair appraisal of its artistic value 15 About the f

34、uture of the arts of reading the author feels _. （ A） upset （ B） uncertain （ C） alarmed （ D） pessimistic 15 Our culture has caused most Americans to assume not only that our language is universal, but that the gestures we use are understood by everyone. We do not realize that waving good-bye is the

35、way to summon a person from the Philippines to ones side, or that in Italy and some Latin-American countries, curling the finger to oneself is a sign of farewell. Those private citizens who sent packages to our troops occupying Germany after World War II and marked them GIFT to escape duty payments

36、did not bother to find out that “Gift“ means poison in German. Moreover, we like to think of ourselves as friendly, yet we prefer to be at least 3 feet or an arms length away from others. Latins and Middle Easterners like to come closer and touch, which makes Americans uncomfortable. Our linguistic

37、and cultural blindness and the casualness with which we take notice of the developed tastes, gestures, customs and languages of other countries, are losing us friends, business and respect in the world. Even here in the United States, we make few concessions to the needs of foreign visitors. There a

38、re no information signs in four languages on our public buildings or monuments; we do not have multilingual(多语言的 )guided tours. Very few restaurant menus have translations, and multilingual waiters, bank clerks and policemen are rare. Our transportation systems have maps in English only and often we

39、 ourselves have difficulty understanding them. When we go abroad, we tend to cluster in hotels and restaurants where English is spoken. The attitudes and information we pick up are conditioned by those nativesusually the richer who speak English. Our business dealings, as well as the nations diploma

40、cy, are conducted through interpreters. For many years, America and Americans could get by with cultural blindness and linguistic ignorance. After all, America was the most powerful country of the free world, the distributor of needed funds and goods. But all that is past. American dollars no longer

41、 buy all good things, and we are slowly beginning to realize that our proper role in the world is changing. A 1979 Harris poll reported that 55 percent of Americans want this country to play a more significant role in world affairs; we want to have a hand in the important decisions of the next centu

42、ry, even though it may not always be the upper hand. 16 It can be inferred that Americans being approached too closely by Middle Easterners would most probably _. （ A） stand still （ B） jump aside （ C） step forward （ D） draw back 17 The author gives many examples to criticize Americans for their _. （

43、 A） cultural self-centeredness （ B） casual manners （ C） indifference towards foreign visitors （ D） arrogance towards other cultures 18 In countries other than their own most Americans_. （ A） are isolated by the local people （ B） are not well informed due to the language barrier （ C） tend to get alon

45、the position of the U.S. dollar 20 The authors intention in writing this article is to make Americans realize that _. （ A） it is dangerous to ignore their foreign friends （ B） it is important to maintain their leading role in world affairs （ C） it is necessary to use several languages in public plac

46、es （ D） it is time to get acquainted with other cultures 大学英语六级改革适用（阅读）模拟试卷 198答案与解析 Section C 【知识模块】 仔细阅读 1 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 首段第 2句中的 celebrating his 75th birthday表明伦敦的展览是为了纪念 Remi在 75年前创造了 Tintin这个人物的，因此选项 A为正确的说法。第2段首句中的 original drawings表明丁丁历险记并非最新创作，因此 B不正确；从第 1段和第 4段可知，小狗的主人是漫画的主角丁丁，并非该漫画书的作者，因

47、此 C不正确；首句中的 for a five-month stay表明这个展览还没开始， D与此相反，显然不正确。 【知识模块】 仔细阅读 2 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 首段第 2句中定语从句里的 file one story表明 Tintin只发表过一篇报道，可见，他的记者工作做得不够 好，因此 B为本题答案。原文关于 Tintin作为记者身份的信息只在首段第 2句中的定语从句中提到，选项 A没有原文依据；撇开 Tintin记者的身份，选项 C和 D可以用来形容他的个性，但不能说明 Tintin作为记者的特点，因此均不正确。 【知识模块】 仔细阅读 3 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】

48、第 6段开头让步从句中的 the moon表明选项 A为正确的说法。根据第 4段， Milou是小狗 “白雪 ”的法文名，并非丁丁到过的地方，因此选项 B不正确；选项 C中的 most faithful无从证明，因此该选项不正确 ：第 6段表明阿道克船长与丁丁一起进行了海上历险，因此 D不正确。 【知识模块】 仔细阅读 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 倒数第 3段第 2句中的让步从句表明埃尔热曾经被放逐，即被迫离开比利时一段时间，因此选项 C为本题答案。本题最具干扰性的是选项 A，事实上，原文表明埃尔热被放逐是因为二战期间被控通敌卖国，而他曾经被控种族歧视，这是被放逐后发生的事了，从原文也
