2025年6月·第2套 英语六级阅读理解（四选一） 第 1 篇 · 46–50 题答案与解析

What gives rise to our worry about careers apart from money? 问的是一个具体原因，且用排除句式锁定方向，属典型细节题而非推断题

主干 What gives rise to our worry，gives rise to 是固定搭配，等于 cause；apart from money 是介词短语作状语，意为「除金钱之外」，提示原文里还另有一因。结构简单，无陷阱。

• A)✓ 正确
  • a psychological aspect to our fears↔Fear of being judged in a snobbish manner
  • ready to judge us ruthlessly and swiftly: a person we can call a snob↔in a snobbish manner

  预判要的是「金钱之外的心理因 = 怕被评判」，A 项 Fear of being judged in a snobbish manner 把「心理因—怕—被评判—被势利者」四要素全部覆盖

• B)无中生有

  原文谈的是 a person we can call a snob，并未把恐惧对象限定为 fault-finding managers——经理只是势利者的一种可能，但原文没说

• C)偷换概念

  原文是「我们怕被人评判」（we are judged），主体是 we；选项 The ruthless way employees are often treated 主语变成 employees，且 treated 把视角换成了「被对待」，与原文 judge us ruthlessly 的「评判」含义不一致

• D)答非所问

  Fright at the difficulty in hunting for a job 谈的是「找工作难」，本质仍属经济或金钱因；而题干用 apart from money 明确把金钱因排除在外

What do we learn from the passage about today's snobs? 问的是当代势利者的客观特征，未含推断信号

主干 What do we learn from the passage about today's snobs，about today's snobs 作 learn 的间接宾语，about 引出询问对象。结构简单，无陷阱。

• A)与原文相反

  原文说今天势利者只看职业；至于 dig into a person's past（挖某人的过去），对应的是 In the past, that might be your ancestry and royal connections——但那是说「过去势利者看祖宗」，不是「今天势利者挖过去」，正话反说

• B)答非所问

  A snob is anyone who takes a relatively small part of us and uses it to come to a rigid conclusion 是势利者的通用定义，不专属于今天；题问的是 today's snobs 与过去相比的独有特征，应取 cares about... what you do for a living

• C)✓ 正确
  • what you do for a living↔judge a person by their occupation
  • the snob cares about one thing only↔judge a person by

  预判核心是「只看职业」，C 项 They judge a person by their occupation. 把「只看」显性化为「以...为判断依据」，吻合

• D)偷换概念

  in any new social context is 'What do you do?' 是描写「在新社交场合问问题」的情境，不是「势利者把人放在某种社交语境里评判」；选项 tend to place people in a social context 把这一场景偷换成势利者的主动行为

What does the author say about people's interest in material goods? 问的是作者就该现象给出的明示论断，仍属细节题范畴

主干 What does the author say about people's interest in material goods，介词 about 引出谈论对象 people's interest in material goods。结构简单，无陷阱。

• A)与原文相反

  we shouldn't condemn them for their greed 明确反对「把对物质的兴趣等同于贪婪并加以谴责」；选项 It is the cause for condemnation of their greed 把「对物质兴趣」说成「谴责其贪婪的原因」，与作者立场相反

• B)无中生有

  the comforts they provide 指物质带来的「舒适」，但 P6 谈的是「通过物质获得尊重」，不是「物质提供舒适」——comfort 维度是选项凭空添加的

• C)张冠李戴

  原文 we should pity them for the intensity of their need for love 说「我们应怜悯豪车车主对爱的渴求」——施动者是「我们」，对象是「豪车车主」；选项 It arouses pity rather than respect from the wealthy 却说「（兴趣）引起富人的怜悯而非尊重」，施动者变成了 the wealthy、且把 respect 与 pity 错误对立

• D)✓ 正确
  • a hunger for the respect and esteem↔their craving for social recognition
  • only available in our societies through the acquisition of material goods↔arises from

  预判的核心三要素：第一是「渴求」（hunger 对应 craving）、第二是对象是「社会层面的尊重」（respect and esteem 对应 social recognition）、第三是驱动了对物质的兴趣（arises from）。D 项三要素全中

What kind of people do snobs deem worth respect and esteem? 问的是被势利者认定值得尊重的具体人群类别，是文中明示的事实

主干 What kind of people do snobs deem worth respect and esteem，deem 是「认为、视为」的正式动词，等于 consider；worth respect and esteem 作 deem 的宾语补足语。需注意 deem 不是常见词，但句式 deem sb. worth doing/sth. 与 consider sb. worth 同构。

• A)✓ 正确
  • the already acclaimed and already successful↔Those with fame and fortune

  预判核心是「已获得外在声名地位的人」，A 项 Those with fame and fortune 用名词 fame and fortune 浓缩了 acclaimed 与 successful 两个分词

• B)张冠李戴

  There is no room in their timid regimented minds 中的 regimented minds 是描写势利者 their 的心智状态（胆怯、刻板），不是「被尊重的对象」；选项把势利者的特征张冠到「被尊重者」头上

• C)与原文相反

  At the root of snobbery is a lack of imagination and confidence 说势利者缺乏想象力；someone might be clever, kind or good—and yet somehow have been overlooked entirely by society 说「聪明、善良的人反而被社会忽略」——这部分人恰恰是势利者「看不到」的，而不是势利者尊敬的对象

• D)与原文相反

  their qualities lying hidden beneath an unfamiliar veil 中的「品质藏于陌生面纱之下」，主体仍是被社会忽略的、品质未显的人，正是势利者「看不见」而非「尊敬」的对象

What does the author imply we should do 中的 imply 是明确的推断信号词，要求由作者明示主张做「一步逻辑延伸」得出建议

主干 What does the author imply we should do，to avoid being snobbish 是不定式作目的状语；being snobbish 是 avoid 的动名词宾语（avoid 后只跟 v-ing）。结构简单，无陷阱。

• A)与原文相反

  原文 The true answer to snobbery is not to say that there is no such thing as a better or worse person 明确反对「无所谓好人坏人」这种说法；选项 there has never been such a thing as a better or worse person 却正是被作者明确否定的命题

• B)✓ 正确
  • to be kind, good, curious and imaginative about pretty much everyone who ever crosses our path↔Be kind to and curious about those who we happen to meet in our lives
  • our ultimate duty remains↔Be kind to...

  预判三要素：第一是态度（善良、好奇）、第二是对象（每一个相遇者）、第三是语气（建议、应该）。B 项以祈使句 Be kind to and curious about those who we happen to meet 三要素全中

• C)偷换概念

  better or worse exist in constantly unexpected places 说的是「好坏的人出现在意想不到的地方」——位置出乎意料；选项 better or worse keeps changing in unexpected ways 把它偷换成「好坏不断以意想不到的方式变化」——把空间分布偷换成动态变化

• D)与原文相反

  carry none of the outward signs of distinction 直白说「不带任何显赫的外在标志」；选项 Judge people on the basis of their distinctive character traits 却要求依据「显著的性格特征」判断人，与原文明确否定的方向一致
