参考答案及解析:

1. enrich their knowledge and experience

解析：本题考查合译法，“积累”与“丰富”可以共用一个英语动词enrich，而enrich的前缀en-有“使……（怎么样）”的含义，如：encircle（圈住）；endanger（使危险）；enfranchise（使自治）。因此，“促使”可以省略不译。本句如果译成can cause the accumulation of their knowledge and the abundance of their experience也没有错，但行文复杂。六级汉译英虽然没有具体的字数要求，考生也应该在准确翻译的前提下尽量使语言精炼。

2. fit our actions to those of other people

解析：本题意为：我们是基于一贯的评价和理解来使我们的行为符合别人的。“使……符合”可以直接用动词fit，而本句最容易出错的地方在于如何理解“别人的”，实际上，“别人的”是“别人的行为”省略。但是在翻译成英语时必须补齐“行为”才能避免意思含混。因此，不能译成fit our actions to other people。

3. vie with each other in answering questions

解析：本题考查固定短语“争先恐后”可以译成strive to be the first或vie with each other，vie是不及物动词，一般与with连用，表示“与某人竞争做某事”。另外，本题The class are very active的集合名词class指代班级成员因而谓语用复数。如果表示整体概念，则谓语用单数，如：This class is very large. It consists of 90 students.

4. a gas which unites with many substances

解析：本题主要考查“物质”的词义辨析。matter和substance侧重抽象的物质或某一事件；substance指某种质地、形体、特征或重要性的东西，侧重某个实体，如：a mineral substance（矿物）；Salt is a substance we use in cooking.（盐是我们做菜时用的东西。）

5. one of those who have witnessed the accident

解析：本题考查句型be one of… 与be the only one of…的辨析。但one前面有the only修饰时，从句中的谓语动词用单数，如：She is the only one of the girls who shows special aptitude in singing and dancing.（她是这些女孩子中唯一在歌舞方面有特长的人。）

                                City Problems
Nowadays, millions of migrant workers flock into cities in search of jobs and better living. However, with the sharp rise in the urban population, many problems arise in the development of cities.

Firstly, cities become more and more crowded, putting much pressure upon transportation, housing, sanitation, education, employment and so on. City services and facilities have been strained to a breaking point. Secondly, a growing number of private cars emit huge amount of carbon dioxide, leaving the air mercilessly polluted. What is more, the city is also threatened by rising crime. Not a single day passes without the report of someone being robbed, kidnapped or murdered.

Last but not least, city-dwellers are not only separated from the natural world but also isolated from each other, even not knowing the name of their next-door neighbor.

All these problems have harmed the attractiveness of the city. Unless there is some improvement, more and more people may seek to live in the suburbs.

本文也是一篇议论文，考试中涉及的议论文题材的比较多。这种题材的作文应该要比较熟练。

As is shown in the table above, dramatic changes have taken place in family expenses in the City of Shanghai within two decades (from 1980 to 2000). The most obvious change is in expense on food and clothing, which has dropped by 48%, while those on recreation, education and health care have increased respectively by 5%, l6% and l0%. Expenses on other things keep rising from 17% to 35%.

The statistics of rise and fall seem to exist in isolation but are in fact closely related to one another. The most likely factors accounting for these changes are as follows:

Development in economy is the fundamental one. The increased income results in the lowering percentage of food and clothing. That is to say, a small percentage of the total income is enou5h to cover food and clothing expenses.

Another factor lies in the development of people’s concept. When people are well fed and well dressed, they begin to interest themselves in recreation and education.

These changes should also be attributed to social reforms. In the 1990’s, college education was not totally free as it was before, which also accounts for the rising expenses on education. Soon after, the government gradually stopped offering houses to its citizens without charges. People had to save a large proportion of their money for housing. That's partly why the expenses for ''others'' doubled.

As for the more expenses on health care, I figure there are two main reasons: the cancellation of free medical care and people’s awareness of the importance of health.

The changes reflect the development of the city and indicate that people are enjoying more.
