2024年12月·第1套 英语六级阅读理解（四选一） 第 2 篇 · 51–55 题答案与解析

题干 What do we learn about beauty in the digital arena 是问"关于 X 我们了解到什么",指向原文对 X 的客观陈述。

Q51 是一个简单的 wh-疑问句,主干 What do we learn (about X),about 短语作 learn 的状语,整句无从句、无否定,无理解陷阱。

• A)与原文相反

  It dictates the taste of digital media 让"美"反过来去 dictate digital media,原文是 social media 在 determine beauty,主客被掉换。

• B)张冠李戴

  It has been in the making for years 谈的是"已经酝酿多年",原文只说 dictated to us for years 的是"physical world 的旧美标准",并非 beauty in the digital arena 本身。

• C)张冠李戴

  It has ushered in a new awakening 说"数字领域的美开启了新觉醒",但原文 An awakening has been taking place in the physical world 明确把觉醒放在 physical world,而非 digital arena。

• D)✓ 正确
  • social media determines what is considered beautiful↔It is defined by social media

  It is defined by social media 几乎就是预判句"美由社交媒体决定"的英文被动版,正中定位句 social media determines what is considered beautiful 的核心信息。

What does the passage say about beauty in the physical world 直接问"文章对 X 怎么说",取的是原文事实陈述。

Q52 主干 What does the passage say (about X),about 短语后置作 say 的状语,无从句、无否定,理解无障碍。

• A)与原文相反

  Women are under constant pressure to keep up with beauty models 强调女性"持续被施压",方向恰好与原文的"对抗这种压力"相反,文章重点在抗争,而非顺从。

• B)无中生有

  Women are encouraged to pursue a beauty ideal that has never existed 中的 encouraged to pursue 在原文找不到对应——原文谈的是被施压,而非被鼓励;"never existed"也并非原文 unrealistic 的等值表达。

• C)✓ 正确
  • the struggle goes against the underlying pressure exerted on women to conform to an unrealistic beauty ideal↔A fight is going on to remove pressure on women to conform to an absurd beauty ideal

  A fight is going on to remove pressure on women to conform to an absurd beauty ideal 把"正在进行抗争"+"对象是施加在女性身上的、要她们顺从荒谬美标准的压力"两层全保留,正是预判内容。

• D)偷换概念

  Media outlets have begun to present as beauty models trendy women without any makeup 把媒体改变形象人选(那些"不符合所谓理想身材"的女性)与 influencers 不化妆自拍混在一起,且原文是 influencers 上传素颜照,不是 media outlets 把"时尚的不化妆女性"包装成 beauty models。

What do we learn from the passage about the Instagram face 仍是问对 X 这一具体对象的客观陈述。

Q53 主干 What do we learn (from the passage) (about X),两个介词短语都作状语,无从句、无陷阱。

• A)✓ 正确
  • the Instagram face has become the new beauty ideal↔It is now regarded as the new beauty ideal

  It is now regarded as the new beauty ideal 几乎是定位句的字面同义改写,锁定即可。

• B)张冠李戴

  It is what most women will go after in 2050 把"2050"这个时间安在 Instagram face 头上,而 the popularity of the cyborg look, which illustrates what Americans will look like in 2050 里 2050 描述的是 cyborg look,而非 Instagram face。

• C)无中生有

  It is being much talked about on social media 加入了"正在被大量讨论"这层意思,原文只说它"成了新美标准",并未提及讨论度。

• D)过度推断

  It is a perfect illustration of the ultimate beauty 用 perfect 与 ultimate 两个最高程度词,原文只说 the new beauty ideal,既无"完美"也无"终极"。

What has obsessive filtering resulted in 问的是某行为带来的具体后果,在原文中必有对应陈述。

Q54 是简单 wh-疑问句,现在完成时 has resulted in 强调动作的延续后果,主语 obsessive filtering 是名词化结构,理解上把它读作"反复地过度滤镜化"即可。

• A)张冠李戴

  A good many women striving to reach an impossible level of perfection 中"impossible level of perfection"是 P8 与 P9 关于滤镜带来的整体后果,不是 P7 这句关于 obsessive filtering 的 consequence。

• B)无中生有

  An urge to turn the entire game played on the network to one's advantage 的"为己所用"是原文完全没有的概念,只是借用了 the entire game played on the networks 的字面壳。

• C)✓ 正确
  • the emerging tendency to treat oneself as an object to be observed and valued↔A tendency to regard one's body as an object of observation and judgment

  A tendency to regard one's body as an object of observation and judgment 把"被观察与被评价的客体"这层意思以名词化方式呈现,与预判完全一致。

• D)答非所问

  An increasing number of women filtering their images before uploading them 描述的就是 obsessive filtering 这一行为本身(原因),而非 resulted in 所问的后果。

What does the author want to emphasize at the end of the passage 关心的是作者"想强调什么",指向作者的主观倾向与建议。

Q55 主干 What does the author want to emphasize,后接 at the end of the passage(位置状语)和 regarding X(关于 X 的话题状语),两段状语只是补充语境,核心动词是 emphasize。

• A)与原文相反

  Cosmetic surgery should be made more accessible to the masses 主张更易获得整容,但原文 not cosmetic intervention 已经明确排除"美容干预"。

• B)✓ 正确
  • the only thing that can fix it is not cosmetic intervention, but mental health care↔Psychological intervention should be introduced to alleviate it
  • cosmetic intervention↔Psychological intervention

  Psychological intervention should be introduced to alleviate it 把作者真正强调的 mental health care 改成同义表达 psychological intervention,正中作者立场。

• C)过度推断

  Their time spent on social media should be strictly controlled 提出严格控制使用时间,而原文 The time spent on social media creates an urge… 只把"花在社媒的时间"作为成因列出,并未呼吁去 strictly control 它。

• D)无中生有

  Its root cause should be meticulously examined and analyzed 主张"细致检查与分析其根本原因",但原文只给方案(mental health care),并未呼吁去"分析根因"。
