The city of Bath was founded by the Romans almost two thousand years ago. It
has
been famous for its 26 pleasing architecture and healing thermal springs ever
since.
There are three hot springs in Bath; one is the King's Spring, upon which the Roman
Baths and a temple were 27 . The other two are the Cross Spring and the
Hetling
Spring, close to each other in Hot Bath Street. Although Bath is 2 8 known as
a
Roman and Georgian city, many people came in the intervening centuries to make use

While the Georgians made "taking the waters' or bathing particularly fashionable,
it

came to
Bath to take the waters in the hope that their magical powers would do something to

The Doctor Will Skype You Now
A) Fazila is a young woman that has been dealing with eczema ( 湿疹 ), a common
skin
condition, for the past five years, but never got it treated. The nearest hospital is an
hour
away, by boat and bus, and her skin condition didn't seem serious enough to make
the
trek, so she ignored it- until a new technology brought the doctor to her. Fazila lives
on
one of the remote river islands in northern Bangladesh. These islands are low-lying,
temporary sand islands that are continuously formed and destroyed through sand
buildup and erosion. They are home to over six million people, who face repeated
displacement from flooding and erosion- which may be getting worse because of
climate change-and a range of health risks, including poor nutrition, malaria (疟疾)and
other water-borne diseases.
B) The most dangerous thing for these remote island dwellers is land erosion. The
2022年6月英语六级真6题 第一套 页码second
is lack of access to medical supplies and doctors. There are no doctors within miles,
and
while child mortality and maternal death have gone down in the rest of the country,
this
is not the case for the islands. The medical situation is so bad that it really takes
away
from the quality of their life. Yet for many island inhabitants——some of Bangladesh's
poorest- paying for health care is a costly ordeal. Victims of erosion lose their houses,
agricultural land and jobs as farmers, fishermen and day laborers. Though government
hospitals are free, many people hesitate to go, citing long commutes, endless lines
and
questionable diagnoses. For convenience's sake, one-third of rural households visit
unqualified village doctors, who rely on unscientific methods of treatment, according to
a 2016 study in the peer-reviewed journal Global Health Action.
C) On the islands, there s even a colloquial (口 头 的 )expression for the idea of
making
medical care your lowest priority: It's known as “rog pushai rakha^^ in Bengali,
which
roughly translates to "stockpiling their diseases”--waiting to seek medical attention
until a condition becomes extremely serious. Now, a new virtual medical service called
Teledaktar (TD) is trying to make health care more easily accessible. Every week, TD's
medical operators travel to the islands by boat, carrying a laptop, a portable printer
for
prescriptions and tools to run basic medical screenings such as blood pressure, blood
sugar, body temperature and weight. They choose an area of the island with the best
Internet reception and set up a makeshift (临 时凑合的)medical center which consists
of plastic stools and small tables borrowed from the locals' homes, a tent in case of
rain
and a sheet that is strung up to give the patients privacy during their session.
D) Launched in October 2018, TD has eight centers in towns and villages across rural
Bangladesh and on three islands. It is funded by a nonprofit organization founded by
Bangladeshi entrepreneurs, finance and technology professionals. Inside the center, the
laptop screen lights up to reveal Dr. Tina Mustahid, TD's head physician, live-streamed
(网 络 直 播 ) from the capital city of Dhaka for free remote medical consultations.
Affectionately called Doctor Apa一 "older sister" in Bengali- by her patients, she is
one of three volunteer doctors at TD.
E) “I diagnose them through conversation,says Dr. Mustahid. '"Sometimes it's really
obvious things that local doctors don't have the patience to talk through with their
patients. For example, a common complaint mothers come in with is that their
children
refuse to eat their meals. The mothers are concerned they are dealing with
indigestion,
but it's because they are feeding the children packaged chips which are cheap and
2022年6月英语六级真7题 第一套 页码convenient. I tell them it is ruining their appetite and ask them to cut back on
unhealthy
snacks." Dr. Mustahid says building awareness about health and nutrition is important
for island patients who are cut off from mainland resources.
F) Even off the islands, Bangladesh faces a critical deficit of health services. The country
has half the doctors-per-person ratio recommended by the World Health Organization:
roughly one doctor per 2,000 people, instead of one doctor per 1,000 people. And of
those physicians, many are concentrated in cities: 70% of the country's population live
in rural areas, yet less than 20% of health workers practice there. Over 70% of TD's
3,000 patients are female, in part because many are not comfortable speaking with
local
doctors who tend to be male. The rural women are mostly not literate or confident
enough to travel on their own to the nearest town to visit medical facilities. Many
have
spent their entire lives rebuilding their homes when the islands flood. Early marriage
and young motherhood, which are prevalent in these parts of Bangladesh, also
contribute to the early onset of health problems.
G) For most TD patients on the islands, Dr. Mustahid is the first big-city doctor that
they've ever consulted. TD doctors are not meant to treat serious illnesses or
conditions
that require a doctor to be physically present, such as pregnancy. But they can write
prescriptions, diagnose common ailments一 including digestive issues, joint pain, skin
diseases, fever and the common cold— — and refer patients to doctors at local
hospitals.
The visit is also an opportunity for the patients, especially women, to air their
concerns
about aging, motherhood and reproductive health according to Dr. Mustahid. The
doctors also offer health, dietary and lifestyle advice where necessary, including insight
on everything from recognizing postnatal (产 后 的 ) depression to daily exercise. Dr.
Mustahid regularly recommends her patients to take a daily thirty-minute morning walk
before the sun gets too intense.
H) After a few sessions about general health issues Fazila finally opened up about
something else that was bothering her: her persistent skin condition. It can get
expensive to travel to the doctor, so usually the women living on the islands describe
their illness to their husbands. The husbands then go to the pharmacy, try to describe
the
issue and return home with some random medicines. Nothing worked for Fazila until
she started seeing Dr. Apa.
I) Other nonprofits are also starting to provide health services on the islands. A local
non-governmental organization called Friendship operates floating boat hospitals that
provide health services to islands all over Bangladesh, docking at each for two months
at a time. Friendship also runs satellite clinics in which one doctor and one clinic aide
who are residents of the community disperse health and hygiene information.
J) TD still has a few major challenges. Many residents complain the medicines they are
2022年6月英语六级真8题 第一套 页码prescribed are sometimes unaffordable, but the government isn't doing enough for
them.
Patients often ask why the medicine isn't free along with the consultation from the
doctors. The organizations are linked to local pharmacies and offer discounts to the
patients and make sure to prescribe the most cost-effective brands, but still many
residents can't afford even that.
K) Nevertheless, TD's remote consultations seem to be popular: Of 3,000 patients, at
least
200 have returned for follow-ups, according to TD. The reason, explains one resident,
might be the simple gesture of treating the island inhabitants with respect.：“Dr. Apa
is
patient,“ he says, “At government hospitals, the doctors treat us very badly, but
here
they listen to us, I can repeat myself many times and no one gets annoyed.”
36. Some children on the remote islands won't eat their meals because they are fed
cheap
junk food.
37. Unlike other parts of Bangladesh, the number of women who die from giving birth
remains high on the river islands.
38. One big problem many islanders have is that they can't afford the prescribed
medicines,
even with discounts offered.
39. TD is a virtual medical service financially supported by one of the nation's nonprofit
organizations.
40. TD doctors are welcome to the islanders because they treat the sick with respect
and
patience.
41. Women islanders tend to have health problems early partly because they get
married
and give birth early.
42. TD doctors make weekly visits to the remote islands to provide services at a
temporary
medical center.
43. TD doctors provide the islanders with online diagnoses and treatments for common
diseases.
44. The residents of the river islands have to keep moving their homes because of
floods
and land erosions.
45. Women islanders usually rely on their husbands to get some medicines for them
without
diagnoses and prescriptions.
2022年6月英语六级真9题 第一套 页码Section C
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage isfollowed by some
questions
or unfinished statements. For each o f them there are four choices marked A), B), C)
and D).
You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer
Sheet 2
with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.
Selective colleges and universities in the U.S. are under fire for being too elite
and too
expensive, and for not training graduates for the world of work. Such charges ignore the
fact that these institutions continue to prepare students for success in their work, for
thoughtful engagement in civic life, for lifelong learning, and for understanding the world
and those with whom they live.
These colleges and universities must be doing something right. Applications are at
record highs, and their financial aid programs make them more accessible than ever. This
model of education has long played a central role in creating opportunity, driving
economic
growth, and spurring innovation.
Yet, there is growing skepticism about the value of this model. The recent tax
reform
bill is a wake-up call that our strongest colleges and universities are under assault by
some
in government. The initial proposals would have made education unaffordable for many
by
taxing tuition waivers for graduate students and ending deductions for student loan
interest.
Thankfully, these provisions were ultimately stripped from the bill, but lawmakers let
stand
a new tax on the investment income of some colleges and universities.
While these attacks are motivated by misguided ideas, we need to do a better
job of
explaining why these claims are false and why what we do is valuable. We cannot take
for
granted that any of this is obvious.
It is often said that elite colleges and universities do not train students,
particularly
those who study the liberal arts, for the workforce. But this can be refuted by scholarly
research. The data are clear: a liberal arts education is great career preparation, both
for
2022年6月英语六级真1题0 第一套 页码excellent lifetime earnings and for satisfaction with the work. This education develops the
skills of critical thinking, rigorous analysis of data and facts, communication with the
written and spoken word, understanding of cultural differences and issues, and the ability
to
keep learning. In fact, liberal arts graduates do extremely well in every imaginable field.
Access to an education at selective colleges and universities is now more available
than ever to low-and middle-income families. We have built endowments from donations
by alumni (校友)and parents who understand and appreciate our mission to provide
access
and opportunity, and a significant portion of the returns from these endowments is used
to
fund financial aid.
Ironically, the new tax on endowments drains financial aid funds from the very
schools
most able to offer opportunity to those who have earned a spot but cannot otherwise
afford
this education. Beyond the virtue of access to those who have earned a place at these
schools, the diversity of economic backgrounds enhances the education and experience
of
all of our students.
46. What fact does the author emphasize concerning selective colleges and universities?
A) They have been ignoring the training of graduates for the world of work.
B) They have been doing well in ensuring their students a successful future.
C) They have been constantly attacked for being too elite and too expensive.
D) They have been actively engaged in civic life beyond the school campus.
47. What does the author say in arguing for the model of education in the U.S.?
A) It has contributed substantially to the nation's overall development.
B) It has succeeded in maintaining sustainable financial aid programs.
C) It has given priority to innovative programs for graduate studies.
D) It has played a central role in attracting international applicants.
48. What do we learn about the initial proposals concerning the recent tax reform bill?
A) They would have stripped many students of life's chances.
B) They would have deducted graduate student loan interest.
C) They would have added to many students’financial burden.
D) They would have increased the number of tuition waivers.
49. What do the data show about elite colleges and universities?
A) Their graduates lack the rigor required for doing statistical analysis.
B) Their students prove to be inadequately prepared for their future careers.
C) Their focus on research is conducive to developing students‘ critical thinking.
D) Their liberal arts education enables graduates to excel in whatever field they are
in.
50. What is an advantage of providing financial aid for students?
2022年6月英语六级真1题1 第一套 页码A) Every student can choose the institution they wish to attend.
B) All students can benefit from a diversified student population.
C) All students will be able to earn a place on university campus.
D) Less privileged students will be more competitive at elite schools.
Passage Two
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
When a group of Australians was asked why they believed climate change was
not
happening, about 36% said it was “common sense”, according to a report published
last
year by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization. This was the
most popular reason fbr their opinion, with only 11% saying their belief that climate
change
was not happening was based on scientific research.
But what do we mean by an appeal to common sense? Presumably it's an
appeal to
rationality of some sort that forms the basis of more complex reasoning. The appeal to
common sense, however, is usually nothing more than an appeal to thinking that just
feels
right, but what feels right to one person may not feel right to another. Whether it feels
right
is usually a reflection of the world view and ideologies we have internalised, and that
frames how we interact with new ideas. When new ideas are in accord with what we
already believe, they are more readily accepted. When they are not, they, and the
arguments
that lead to them, are more readily rejected.
We often mistake this automatic compatibility testing of new ideas with existing
beliefs
as an application of common sense, but, in reality, it is more about judging than
thinking.
As Nobelist Daniel Kahneman notes in Thinking, Fast and Slow, when we arrive at
conclusions in this way, the outcomes also feel true, regardless of whether they are. We
are
not psychologically well equipped to judge our own thinking.
We are also highly susceptible to a range of cognitive biases such as giving
preference
to the first things that come to mind when making decisions or giving weight to
evidence.
One way we can check our internal biases and inconsistencies is through the
social
verification of knowledge, in which we test our ideas in a rigorous and systematic way
to
see if they make sense not just to us, but to other people. The outstanding example of
2022年6月英语六级真1题2 第一套 页码this
socially shared cognition is science.
That does not mean that individuals are not capable of excellent thinking, nor
does it
mean no individual is rational. But the extent to which individuals can do this on their
own
is a function of how well integrated they are with communities of systematic inquiry in
the
first place. You can't learn to think well by yourself.
In matters of science at least, those who value their common sense over
methodological,
collaborative investigation imagine themselves to be more free in their thinking, unbound
by involvement with the group, but in reality they are tightly bound by their capabilities
and
perspectives. We are smarter together than we are individually, and perhaps that's just
common sense.
51. What does the author intend to show by citing the findings from the report
published
last year?
A) People seldom appeal to rationality in their thinking.
B) It is often the case that truth lies in the hands of a few.
C) Common sense and science are the two sides of a coin.
D) Few people know if climate change is really happening.
52. What is the appeal to common sense according to the author?
A) It is the basis for the internalisation of individuals‘ideologies.
B) It is a series of conceptions formulated from complex reasoning.
C) It is collective wisdom that helps people interact with new ideas.
D) It is something subjective based on what one perceives to be right.
53. What does Daniel Kahneman think is the problem of testing new ideas with existing
beliefs?
A) It may lead to incorrect judgment.
B) It makes no use of common sense.
C) It fails to correct mistakes through serious reasoning.
D) It can produce psychologically unacceptable outcomes.
54. What can we do to be less susceptible to cognitive biases?
A) Give equal weight to evidence of both sides in a conflict.
B) Provide convincing examples in developing an argument.
C) Establish socially shared cognition via scientific methods.
D) Avoid inconsistencies when addressing controversial issues.
55. What message does the author try to convey at the end of the passage?
A) Multiple perspectives stimulate people's interest in exploring the unknown.
B) Individuals can enhance their overall capabilities by interacting with others.
2022年6月英语六级真1题3 第一套 页码C) Individuals should think freely to break from the restrictions of common sense.
D) Collaborative efforts can overcome individuals limitations in scientific inquiry.
