英语六级听力合集
2019年12月第1套：真题听力
Conversation 1（00:40）
M: Today our guest is Rosie Mullender, who works as a Features editor for Fashion magazine. Hi Rosie, you are Features editor at one of the most widely read women’s magazines in the U.K. What kind of responsibilities does that job entail【使成为必须、必然导致】?
W: We spend our days looking at ideas from journalists, writing copy for the magazine and website, and editing. We do random things like asking people in the street questions and testing sports clothing. We also do less tangible【明确的、真实的】things like understanding what our readers want. Its certainly varied and sometimes bizarre.
M: During your working day, what kind of work might you typically do?
W: My day mainly incorporates responding to emails, writing and editing stories and coming up with new feature ideas.
M: How does the job of Features editor differ from that of Fashion editor or other editorial positions?
W: The Features team deals with articles such as careers, reports, confidence and confessions【自白、忏悔录】everything except fashion and beauty.
M: A lot of people believe that working at a magazine is a glamorous【迷人的】job. Is this an accurate【准确地】representation of what you do?
W: I’d say its glamorous to an extent【程度、范围、长度】, but not in the way its portrayed in films. We do have our moments, such as interviewing celebrities and attending parties, which is a huge thrill【令人兴奋的】. Ultimately【最终】, though, were the same as our readers, but working in a job we’re all very lucky to have.
M: Did you have to overcome any difficulties to reach this point in your career? How did you manage to do this?
W: I had to be really persistent and it was very hard work. After three years of working in a petrol【汽油】station and doing unpaid work, I still hadn’t managed to get an entry-level【入门的、初级的】job. I was lucky that my last desperate attempt led to a job【我很幸运，我最后一次绝望的尝试找到了工作】. I told myself that all experiences make you a better journalist【新闻工作者】in the long run and luckily I was right!
1 What is the woman’s profession?
2 What is one of the woman’s main responsibilities?
3 What do many people think about the woman’s job?
4 What helped the woman to get her current position?
street【街道】
stress【紧张、强调】
Conversation 2（4:15-）
W: Are you watching any good shows these days?
M: Actually, yes. I’m watching a great satire【讽刺】called Frankie. I think you’d like it.
W: Really? Whats it about?
M: Its about a real guy named Frankie. He is a famous comedian【喜剧演员】in New York and shows a mixture of comedy and drama【剧本】loosely【宽松的、轻率的】depicting【描述】his life.
W: I’m sorry, do you mean to say, its a real-life series about a real person? It’s non-fiction, is it?
M: No... Not really, no. Its fiction, as what happens in every episode is made up. However, the lead role is a comedian by the name of Frankie, and he plays himself. So Frankie, in both real life and in the TV show, lives in New York City. He is a comic【滑稽的、好笑的】, is divorced, and has two little daughters. All those things are true, but aside from【除...以外】him, all his friends and family are played by actors. And the plots【情节】and the events that take place are also invented.
W: Oh, I think I see now. That sounds like a very original concept.
M: Yes, it is. In fact, the whole show is written, directed【指导、管理】, edited and produced by him, and is very funny and has won many awards.
W: That’s cool. I will try to download it. I’m watching a comedy called The Big Bang Theory. Its a huge hit around the world.
M: Oh yes. I’ve heard of it, but never actually watched it.
W: Well, then you should check it out【来看看】. Its also very funny. Its about four male scientists and a female waitress【女服务员】. The men are very socially awkward【令人尴尬的，（socially awkward：不会社交的）】but very bright【明亮的、聪明的】. And this is contrasted【对比】 by the lady’s social skills and common sense. The show has been running for over ten years, and some of the actors are practically global super stars. Now that they are such famous celebrities.
5 What does the man think of the satire Frankie he recently watched?
6 What does the man say is special about the satire Frankie?
7 What does the woman say she is going to do with the satire Frankie?
8 What does the woman say about the comedy【喜剧】The Big Bang Theory?
Section B
Passage 1（8:10-）
Related to the use it or lose【用进废退】it law is the keep moving principle. We learn about stagnation【停滞、不景气】from nature. A river that stops moving gets smelly【发臭的】. The same thing happens to people who stop moving, either mentally or physically. Those who play contact sports know that the player who usually gets hurt the most is the one who is standing still【站着不动】.
Of course, you’ll need some time to catch your breath every so often【当然，你时常会需要一些时间喘口气】, but the essential massage is keep moving, extending and learning. Ships last a lot longer when they go to sea than when they stay in the harbor【海港、避难所】. The same is true for airplanes. You don’t preserve an airplane by keeping it on the ground. You preserve it by keeping it in service.
