Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
Telephone, television, radio, and telegraph all help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set.News of a disaster such as an earthquake or a flood can bring help from distant countries within hours, help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travels fast.
How has this speed of communication changed the world？ To many people,the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago,communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the ocean. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries,it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America.This time difference influenced people's actions. For example, one battle, or fight, in the War of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed.They would not have died if news had come in time.In the past,communication took much time than it does now.
There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.
31. News spreads fast because of____.
A.modern transportation B.new technology C.the change of the world D.a peace agreement
32. According to this passage,____is very important to people in a disaster area.
A.fast communication B.modern technology C.latest news D.new ideas
33. Which of the following statements is true？
A.The world now seems smaller because of faster communication.
B.The world is actually smaller today.
C.The world is changing its size.
D. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812
34. Two hundred years ago,news between the continents was carried____.
A.by telephone and telegraph B.by land C.by air D.by sea
35. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement had been signed____.
A.by both sides B.in time C.in America D.in England

In America, you can achieve if you are prepared. You can soar(高飞)as far as your knowledge, drive and social skills will take you. The hitch is that although most of our children are born with incredible potential, far too many of them never see their promises fulfilled because their brains dont get enough stimulation(刺激)early in life. Jon Fine, CEO and president of United Way of King County, showed slides(幻灯片)of two brains during a speech Friday. One showed the brain of a child who received lots of stimulation, and the other the brain of a neglected child. There was a marked difference in the development of the temporal lobe(颞叶), which meant the child who hadnt had rich experiences in his or her early childhood would have trouble processing information. High-quality early education is the surest way to reduce the high school dropout rate because children start learning the moment they enter the world. It could keep more people out of prison and help grow the talent well need to rebuild our economy, mend our environment and write brilliant music. Think about something as simple as vocabulary. How do children acquire the kind of deep and broad repository(储存)of words and language skills that are the foundation of success in school and in life？ Obviously, since you need it to succeed in school, waiting until you are in school to learn isnt the best option. Kids learn at home from their parents, and parents arent equally prepared to teach. Kids who arrive at school behind rarely catch up.
Which is the best title of this passage？
A．The Importance of Early Education.
B．The Equal Chance in America.
C．Family Education in America.
D．The Cause of the High-school Dropout Rate.

Passage two 2016年6月英语六级卷一试题
What can be done about mass unemployment？ All the wise heads agree: there’re no quick or easy answers. There’s work to be done, but workers aren’t ready to do it—they’re in the wrong places, or they have the wrong skills, Our problems are “structural, ”and will take many years to solve.
But don’t bother asking for evidence that justifies this bleak view. There isn’t any. On the contrary, all the facts suggest that high unemployment in America is the result of inadequate demand. saying that there’re no easy answers sounds wise. But it’s actually foolish: our unemployment crisis could be cured very quickly if we had the intellectual clarity and political will to act. In other words, structural unemployment is a fake problem, which mainly serves as an excuse for not pursing real solutions.
The fact is job openings have plunged in every major sector, while the number of workers forced into part-time employment in almost all industries has soared. Unemployment has surged in every major occupational category. Only three states. With a combined population not much larger than that of Brooklyn, have unemployment rates below 5%. So the evidence contradicts the claim that we’re mainly suffering from structural unemployment. Why, then, has this claim become so popular？
Part of the answer is that this is what always happens during periods of high unemployment—in part because experts and analysts believe that declaring the problem deeply rooted, with no easy answers, makes them sound serious.
I’ve been looking at what self-proclaimed experts were saying about unemployment during the Great Depression; it was almost identical to what Very Serious People are saying now. Unemployment cannot be brought down rapidly, declared one 1935 analysis, because the workforce is“unadaptable and untrained. It cannot respond to the opportunities which industry may offer. ”A few years later, a large defense buildup finally provided a fiscal stimulus adequate to the economy’s needs—and suddenly industry was eager to employ those“unadaptable and untrained”workers.
But now, as then, powerful forces are ideologically opposed to the whole idea of government action on a sufficient scale to jump-start the economy. And that, fundamentally, is why claims that we face huge structural problems have been multiplying: they offer a reason to do nothing about the mass unemployment that is crippling out economy and our society.
So what you need to know is that there’s no evidence whatsoever to back these claims. We aren’t suffering from a shortage of needed skills, We’re suffering from a lack of policy resolve. As I said, structural unemployment isn’t a real problem, it’s an excuse—a reason not to act on America’s problems at a time when action is desperately needed.
51. What does the author think is the root cause of mass unemployment in America？
A)Corporate mismanagement.
B)Insufficient demand.
C)Technological advances.
D)Workers’ slow adaptation.
52. What does the author think of the experts’ claim concerning unemployment？
A)Self-evident.
B)Thought-provoking.
C)Irrational.
D)Groundless.
53. What does the author say helped bring down unemployment during the Great Depression？
A)The booming defense industry.
B)The wise heads’ benefit package.
C)Nationwide training of workers.
D)Thorough restructuring of industries.
54. What has caused claims of huge structural problems to multiply？
A)Powerful opposition to government’s stimulus efforts.
B)Very Serious People’s attempt to cripple the economy.
C)Evidence gathered from many sectors of the industries.
D)Economists’ failure to detect the problems in time.
55. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage？
A)To testify to the experts’ analysis of America’s problems.
B)To offer a feasible solution to the structural unemployment.
C)To show the urgent need for the government to take action.
D)To alert American workers to the urgency for adaptation.

| Every day, putting food on the table is a challenge for many Americans. They worry that they won't be able to feed their families. The slowing economy, increasing unemployment and rising food prices are contributing to the growing number of people who need help. The nation's food banks are rising to the challenge. It is estimated that they are currently serving 38% more people than they were a year ago. "In Minnesota, the jobless rate is the highest it's been in many years," says Tricia Theurer of Second Harvest Heartland, a hunger-relief organization in Minnesota."More and more people are needing to ask for help for emergency food, many for the first time, due to economic situations." Second Harvest Heartland provides about 41.5 million pounds of food annually to 170,000 people in 59 counties in Minnesota and Western Wisconsin. The group is part of Feeding America, the nation's food-bank network. Its members include 205 food banks serving every county in the United States. Hunger affects children, adults and seniors. It affects those who live in the city, in the suburbs and in rural areas. It affects those who do not have jobs and the working poor. The working poor are the fastest growing group of food-bank clients. They are employed, but simply do not have enough income to buy enough food to feed their families. Kids and adults can participate together in the fight to end hunger. The money you donate to the food bank may seem like too small an amount to make a difference, but a simple $1 donation can be used to distribute more than $9 worth of food. "Kids can be very creative in coming up with ideas of how to help others," says Theurer."Some kids run lemonade stands, others have asked guests to contribute food or money to Second Harvest instead of presents." |
| 1. Why more and more people need to be helped in the USA？ |
| A. Because putting food on the table is a challenge for many Americans. B. Because of more people out of work and food prices rising with economy slowing. C. Because more and more farmers give up planting in the economy crisis. D. Because the clerks in nation's food banks were out of work at present. |
| 2. What caused many people demand urgent food help for the first time？ |
| A. The challenge of the nation's food banks. B. The development of the internet. C. The development of Second Harvest Heartland. D. The worsening economic states. |
| 3. What population are more in need in food-bank lists？ |
| A. Seniors in cities. B. People in rural areas. C. The poor employees. D. Children in schools. |

| ost one-third more than that they earned last year. And it is twenty-six percent higher than the ten-year average. Values for grain and oilseed crops are up about three percent from last year. The value of animal production is up by almost seven percent. In 2011, farm exports are expected to break the all-time high set in 2008.The Agriculture Department says exports in 2011 could top one hundred and twenty-six billion dollars. The largest buyer of agricultural products is expected to be Canada. But farm exports to China are predicted to come within five hundred million dollars of Canadian purchases. Secretary Vilsack says countries in Southeast Asia and the Middle East are also buying more from American farmers. Poor growing conditions overseas played an important part in higher prices for American crops in 2010.Charlotte Hebe brand is chief executive of the International Food and Agricultural Trade Policy Council in Washington. She said drought(干旱)conditions had a big effect over the summer. She said,“There were horrible weather problems, not just in Russia but also in some of the other former Soviet Union countries.” Wheat prices rose after Russia stopped wheat exports,although Russia later eased the ban(禁令).“Wheat used to be America’s top crop. What’s interesting,though,is that wheat production has actually become less over the past few years because corn has become the most popular crop,”said economist Charlotte Hebebrand. Corn is mostly fed to animals. But Miss Hebebrand said with the recent increase in wheat prices, American farmers might plant more wheat again. Corn and wheat are the two largest crops supported by the government. 小题1:We know that compared to 2009,in 2010 American farmers——.
