Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

  When Kathie Gifford's face was splashed across the newspapers in 1996 after her lucrative line of Wal mart clothing was exposed as the work of underpaid laborers in New York City's Chinatown, the Department of Labor and the White House teamed up to condemn such practices. With much fanfare, President Clinton's administration launched the "No Sweat" campaign, which pressured retailers and manufacturers to submit to periodic independent inspection of their workplace conditions.

  This campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct, a promise to selfregulate that has since been adopted by a handful of retailers and many of the nation's largest manufacturers, including Nike and L.L. Bean. However, the Department of Defense, which has a $ 1 billion garment business that would make it the country's 14th largest retail apparel outlet, has not signed the Code of Conduct. In addition, it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.

  Because the Department of Defense has not agreed to adhere to the code, the job of stopping public sector sweatshops falls to the Department of Labor. Federal contractors that persist in violating wage laws or safety and health codes can lose their lucrative taxpayer financed contracts. But Suzanne Seiden, a deputy administrator at the Department of Labor, says that to her knowledge, the department has never applied that rule to government apparel manufacturers. "I just assume that they are adhering to safety and health requirements," she says. According to records obtained by Mother Jones, through a Freedom of Information Act request, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Lion 32 times for safety and health violations in the past 12 years.

  21.What is this passgage mainly concerned with?

  A)The functions of the Department of Labor in America.

  B)A serious problem threatening American economy.

  C)The successful attempt of regulating sweatshops in America.

  D)The seriousness of the problem of sweatshops in America.

  22.According to the passage, Kathie Gifford ____.

  A) was one of the underpaid laborers in New York City's Chinatown

  B) was one of the well paid laborers in New York City's Chinatown

  C) made much money from cheap laborers in New York City's Chinatown

  D) wrote a newspaper article exposing the practice of employing cheap laborers

  23.The underlined phrase "to submit to" is closest in meaning to ____.

  A) to accept unwillingly

  B) to refuse coldly

  C) to welcome warm heartedly

  D) to blame strongly

  24.Which of the following statements about the Department of Defense is true?

  A) It will become the country's 14th largest retail apparel manufacturer.

  B) It hasn't acted according to the Workplace Code of Conduct.

  C) It has demanded its contractors to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct.

  D) It has teamed up with the Department of Labor to launch a campaign.

      25.What was the purpose of President Clinton's administration launching the "No Sweat" campaign?

  A) To urge manufacturers to obey the Workplace Code of Conduct.

  B) To remind the manufacturers of the Workplace Code of Conduct.

  C) To urge the Department of Labor to take its responsibility.

  D) To urge the Department of Defense to inspect manufacturers.

【參考答案】

21.【答案】D。

  【譯文】這篇文章主要講述什麼?

  【試題分析】歸納概括題(Summing up and summarizing),這種試題要求學生能把握文章的總體,並真正理解主題和中心大意。

  【詳細解答】文章從開始就講述衆多的低收入工人集體抗議工作條件,導致Kathie Gifford的服裝廠被曝光;於是克林頓政府發起"無血汗"運動,可是國防部拒絕簽署《工作場所操作規範》,勞工部卻稱該部門主要要求製造商們遵守安全和衛生規定。可見美國政府部門對於血汗工廠的問題存有分歧,也難以解決。所以文章的中心大意是美國血汗工廠的問題目前最嚴重的地方是美國政府對此的態度不 夠統一和堅決。A)太偏,不是講美國勞工部的職能;B)太泛,沒有指明哪個問題,也不一定威脅到美國的經濟;C)與文章意思相反,美國規範血汗工廠的努力 並沒有成功。D)符合文章主題。

22.【答案】C。

  【譯文】根據本文,Kathie Gifford____ ?

  【試題分析】細節理解題(Understanding details)。這類題一般只針對文章中某一個特定的細節,也可以涉及若干個細節,或者針對文章的主要事實而設問。

  【詳細解答】見文章第一句話"When Kathie Gifford...condemn such practices.",Kathie Gifford的高利潤的服裝廠曝光了,之後她於1996年在報紙上被廣泛報道。所以C)爲正確答案。A)和B)與本句意思不符,她不是一名工人;D)說她寫文章報道此事,也不對。

23.【答案】A。

  【譯文】與劃線短語"to submit to" 意思接近的是下列哪一項?

  【試題分析】猜測詞義題(Guessing at word meaning)。即運用一些猜測生詞詞義的方法,猜測生詞的含義,以提高閱讀速度和理解能力。

  【詳細解答】可以對上下文已知部分進行邏輯的推理。前面講到克林頓發起的"無血汗"運動勒令零售商和製造商對車間環境進行定期檢查,他們肯定是 不情願的,但這是總統的命令,所以他們就"不情願地接受"。B)"冷冷地拒絕";C)"熱烈地歡迎";D)"強烈地譴責"均與上下文意思不符。

24.【答案】B。

  【譯文】下列關於國防部的陳述哪一項是正確的?

  【試題分析】分析判斷題(Making an analysis and a judgment)。即根據文章中提供的事實,經過分析、思考做出這樣或那樣的判斷選擇。

  【詳細解答】這類題需要事先通讀全文,理解全文主旨,尤其是關於國防部的內容;然後再將四個選項進行比較,用排除法。A)國防部是美國第14大 零售服裝製造商,這與文章中retail apparel outlet(零售服裝批發商店)不符;B)它沒有按照《工作場所操作規範》行事,這與文章中has not signed the code of conduct正好相符;C)它要求承包商簽署《工作場所操作規範》, 這與文章中it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.相反;D)它要求勞工部發起一場運動,文章中沒有提及。所以,對比分析可得知B爲正確答案。

25.【答案】A。

  【譯文】克林頓政府發起"無血汗"運動的目的是什麼?

  【試題分析】細節理解中的詞義轉換題。這種題常常是原文有關詞語和句子的轉換,而不能在原文中直接找到。它要求考生能理解原文中某個短語或句子的含義,從而找到與答案意思相同的詞語和句子。

  【詳細解答】文章第一段最後一句話"with much fanfare, ..., their workplace conditions."是說,克林頓政府藉此小題大做,以勒令製造商們對車間環境進行定期檢查。關鍵詞有pressure(強制,壓迫,勒令),to submit to(屈服,服從)。第二段第一句話"this campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Conduct."更加直接說明了這場運動的目的,即讓他們簽署並執行這一規範。故A)爲正確答案。

好了,以上是小編整理的英語六級真題的閱讀理解部分(不含聽力與作文)。在選詞彙時一定要結合句子上下文仔細斟酌,注意辨析詞彙。如果自學吃力,不妨試試專業老師的指導,早日拿下六級。
