解析：

这是一篇关于大学生课外实践的社论，原文刊登在英国的《卫报》上：http://www.hjenglish.com/new/p166506/

这里再次验证了平时阅读外刊的重要性，沪江部落小组里就有一些外刊的学习贴，大家平时可以参考一下：如《BBC资讯听写》《AP一分钟时事精华》《今日TOPIC》《六级出题来源揭秘》

文章第一句，同样没有挖空，旨在帮助学生快速进入语境。

文章主旨句：课外实践是大学生专业课程的重要补充。

62. 需要通篇理解才能给出答案。

63. 上一句的关键词是usually, 讲述的是通常的情况，与现在的情况形成对比。因此63选but。

64. 这里需要一个和to搭配的动词，表达投入之意，因此只有devote符合。

65. 全文都在讲述学生找工作，这里的人才市场竞争激烈，才符合题意，因此competitive符合。

66. 本句里有个alongside，相当于beside，这里指课外实践以外的方面，当然就是academic

67. 这里需要一个副词修饰动词appreciate，根据but前后的逻辑，我们应该选择necessarily，表示必然;必定: Big men arent necessarily strong men. 高大的人不一定强壮.

68. 根据全文的大意，这里的appreciate要接课外实践作宾语。

69. 根据下文的描述，我们可以知道现在的雇主要比原先苛刻很多，所以这里需要填上demanding

70. 根据本段最后一句，Now后面的描述，我们知道，原先并不是这样，原先只注重应聘者的潜力，其实saw it as part of their job to extract the value of an applicant s skills也是一个佐证。

71. 这里需要一个和to 搭配的形容词，根据倒数第二段的最后一句，我们很好判断出答案选择relevant。

72. 本空考察动词短语，sign up for 表示登记报名，这里是符合题意的。

73. 根据文章第一句，这里很好判断，应该是voluntary，表示义工。

74. 这里是几个动作的顺承，应该用and。

75.B) Exceptional 这里需要形容词修饰efforts。exceptional，特别的，卓越的。2008年北京奥运会闭幕式上，奥委会主席罗格就用了exceptional这个词来形容这场盛世。什么样的成绩可以得奖呢?当然是优秀的成绩。occasional，偶然的;informative，内容充实的;relative，相关的。

76.A) perform 这里句子缺少谓语动词。perform，表现。学生、员工的表现，通常用perform/performance这个词。circulate，循环;convey，传达;formulate，制定、用公式表示。在运动场上表现优秀的学生可以获得体育相关的奖项。

77.C) formally 这里需要副词修饰动词organised。可以从Goodman后面举的例子上来判断，学生的经验不需要非要正式。roughly，粗略地;randomly，随机地;fortunately，幸运的。注意句子中的否定成分。

78.A) For instance 下面开始举例，故选择此项。In contrast，相反;In essence，本质上;Of course，当然。

79.A) demonstrated 词义辨析题。这里需要动词，与skills联系。demonstrate，展示;operate，操作;determine，决定;involve，卷入、包括。学生通过实践经验，展现自己的谈判技巧。

80.C) scheme 词义辨析。device，设备;section，部分;scheme，计划;distraction，分心。这里指的是Bristol PLuS这项奖励计划。

81.D) peers 词义辨析。attendant，出席者;member，会员;agent，经纪人;peer，同龄人。

本次六级完型填空考察了4处名词，3处连词，3处动词，6处形容词，2处介词，2处副词。只有少数几处能通过微观层面的语法搭配判定选项，其他大部分都需要通篇理解，因此有一定难度
