2015年考研英语二作文
2015年考研英语二作文In 2015, the exam for postgraduate entrance in English was quite challenging, especially the writing section. The task required us to compose an essay without a title, in a conversational and relaxed tone. Each paragraph had to stand alone, with no clear order or logical connection between them. This added a layer of excitement and spontaneity to the writing process.Firstly, I wanted to talk about the importance of practice. English writing is not just about grammar and vocabulary; it's also about expressing ideas clearly and effectively. The more you practice, the better you become at it. Regular writing exercises can help improve your skills and make you more confident when taking exams.Secondly, I wanted to mention the role of reading in enhancing writing skills. Reading good English literature can help you learn new vocabulary, understand different writing styles, and get a feel for the flow of language.It's like a secret weapon that can give you an edge in your writing.Then, there's the aspect of creativity. Writing isn't just about following rules and structures; it's also about expressing yourself uniquely. Don't be afraid to try new things, experiment with different writing techniques, and let your imagination run wild. Your unique perspective can make your writing stand out from the crowd.Lastly, I wanted to emphasize the importance of feedback. It。

ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.Answer the questions below each text by choosing A,B,C or D.Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(40points)Text1①A new study suggests that contrary to most surveys,people are actually more stressed at home than at work.②Researchers measured people’s cortisol,which is stress marker,while they were at work and while they were at home and found it higher at what is supposed to bea place of refuge.①“Further contradicting conventional wisdom,we found that women as well as men have lower levels of stress at work than at home,”writes one of the researchers,Sarah Damaske.②In fact women even say they feel better at work,she notes,“It is men,not women,who report being happier at home than at work.”③Another surprise is that thefidings hold true for both those with children and without,but more so for nonparents.④This is why people who work outside the home have better health.①What the study doesn’t measure is whether people are still doing work when they’re at home,whether it is household work or work brought home from the offie.②For many men, the end of the workday is a time to kick back.③For women who stay home,they never get to leave the offie.④And for women who work outside the home,they often are playing catch-up-with-household tasks.⑤With the blurring of roles,and the fact that the home front lags well behind the workplace in making adjustments for working women,it’s not surprising that women are more stressed at home.①But it’s not just a gender thing.②At work,people pretty much know what they’re supposed to be doing:working,making money,doing the tasks they have to do in order todraw an income.③The bargain is very pure:Employee puts in hours of physical or mental labor and employee draws out life-sustaining moola.①On the home front,however,people have no such clarity.②Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically and methodically laid out.③There are a lot of tasks to be done,there are inadequate rewards for most of them.④Your home colleagues—your family—have no clear rewards for their labor;they need to be talked into it,or if they’re teenagers,threatened with complete removal of all electronic devices.⑤Plus,they’re your family.⑥You cannotfie your family.⑦You never really get to go home from home.①So it’s not surprising that people are more stressed at home.②Not only are the tasks apparently infiite,the co-workers are much harder to motivate.21.According to Paragraph1,most previous surveys found that home.[A]offred greater relaxation than the workplace.[B]was an ideal place for stress measurement.[C]generated more stress than the workplace.[D]was an unrealistic place for relaxation.22.According to Damaske,who are likely to be the happiest at home?[A]Working mothers.[B]Childless husbands.[C]Working fathers.[D]Childless wives.23.The blurring of working women’s roles refers to the fact that.[A]their home is also a place for kicking back[B]they are both bread winners and housewives[C]there is often much housework left behind[D]it is diffiult for them to leave their offie24.The word“moola”(Para.4)most probably means.[A]skills[B]energy[C]earnings[D]nutrition25.The home front diffrs from the workplace in that.[A]family labor is often adequately rewarded[B]home is hardly a cozier working environment[C]household tasks are generally more motivating[D]division of labor at home is seldom clear-cutText2①For years,studies have found thatfist-generation college students—those who do not have a parent with a college degree—lag other students on a range of education achievement factors.②Their grades are lower and their dropout rates are higher.③But since such students are most likely to advance economically if they succeed in higher education,colleges and universities have pushed for decades to recruit more of them.④This has created“a paradox”in that recruitingfist-generation students,but then watching many of them fail,means that higher education has“continued to reproduce and widen,rather than close”an achievement gap based on social class,according to the depressing beginning of a paper forthcoming in the journal Psychological Science.①But the article is actually quite optimistic,as it outlines a potential solution to this problem,suggesting that an approach(which involves a one-hour,next-to-no-cost program) can close63percent of the achievement gap(measured by such factors as grades)betweenfist-generation and other students.①The authors of the paper are from diffrent universities,and theirfidings are based on a study involving147students(who completed the project)at an unnamed private university.②First generation was defied as not having a parent with a four-year college degree.③Most of thefist-generation students(59.1percent)were recipients of Pell Grants,a federal grant for undergraduates withfiancial need,while this was true only for8.6percent of the students with at least one parent with a four-year degree.①Their thesis—that a relatively modest intervention could have a big impact—was based on the view that first-generation students may be most lacking not in potential but in practical knowledge about how to deal with the issues that face most college students.②They cite past research by several authors to show that this is the gap that must be narrowed to close the achievement gap.①Manyfist-generation students“struggle to navigate the middle-class culture of higher education,learn the‘rules of the game,’and take advantage of college resources,”theywrite.②And this becomes more of a problem when colleges don’t talk about the class advantages and disadvantages of diffrent groups of students.③”Because US colleges and universities seldom acknowledge how social class can affct students’educational experiences, manyfist-generation students lack insight about why they are struggling and do not understand how students‘like them’can improve.”26.Recruiting morefist-generation students has.[A]reduced their dropout rates[B]narrowed the achievement gap[C]missed its original purpose[D]depressed college students27.The authors of the research article are optimistic because.[A]theirfidings appeal to students[B]the recruiting rate has increased[C]the problem is solvable[D]their approach is costless28.The study suggests that mostfist-generation students.[A]are from single-parent families[B]study at private universities[C]are in need offiancial support[D]have failed their collage29.The authors of the paper believe thatfist-generation students.[A]may lack opportunities to apply for research projects[B]are inexperienced in handling their issues at college[C]can have a potential inflence on other students[D]are actually indiffrent to the achievement gap30.We may infer from the last paragraph that.[A]universities often reject the culture of the middle-class[B]students are usually to blame for their lack of resources[C]social class greatly helps enrich educational experiences[D]colleges are partly responsible for the problem in questionText3①Even in traditional offices,“the lingua franca of corporate America has gotten much more emotional and much more right-brained than it was20years ago,”said Harvard Business School professor Nancy Koehn.②She started spinning offexamples.③“If you and I parachuted back to Fortune500companies in1990,we would see much less frequent use of terms like journey,mission,passion.④There were goals,there were strategies,there were objectives,but we didn’t talk about energy;we didn’t talk about passion.”①Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very“team”-oriented —and not by coincidence.②“Let’s not forget sports—in male-dominated corporate America, it’s still a big deal.③It’s not explicitly conscious;it’s the idea that I’m a coach,and you’re my team,and we’re in this together.④There are lots and lots of CEOs in very diffrent companies,but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win.”①These terms are also intended to infuse work with meaning—and,as Rakesh Khurana, another professor,points out,increase allegiance to thefim.②“You have the importation of terminology that historically used to be associated with non-profit organizations and religious organizations:terms like vision,values,passion,and purpose,”said Khurana.①This new focus on personal fulfillment can help keep employees motivated amid increasingly loud debates over work-life balance.②The“mommy wars”of the1990s are still going on today,prompting arguments about why women still can’t have it all and books like Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In,whose title has become a buzzword in its own right.③Terms like unplug,offline,life-hack,bandwidth,and capacity are all about setting boundaries between the offie and the home.④But if your work is your“passion”,you’ll be more likely to devote yourself to it,even if that means going home for dinner and then working long after the kids are in bed.①But this seems to be the irony of offie speak:Everyone makes fun of it,but managers love it,companies depend on it,and regular people willingly absorb it.②As a linguist oncesaid,“You can get people to think it’s nonsense at the same time that you buy into it.”③In a workplace that’s fundamentally indiffrent to your life and its meaning,offie speak can help youfiure out how you relate to your work—and how your work defies who you are.31.According to Nancy Koehn,offie language has become.[A]less strategic[B]less energetic[C]more objective[D]more emotional32.“Team”-oriented corporate vocabulary is closely related to.[A]sports culture[B]gender diffrence[C]historical incidents[D]athletic executives33.Khurana believes that the importation of terminology aims to.[A]revive historical terms[B]promote company image[C]foster corporate cooperation[D]strengthen employee loyalty34.It can be inferred that Lean In.[A]voices for working women[B]appeals to passionate workaholics[C]triggers debates among mommies[D]praises motivated employees35.Which of the following statements is true about offie speak?[A]Linguists believe it to be nonsense.[B]Regular people mock it but accept it.[C]Companiesfid it to be fundamental.[D]Managers admire it but avoid it.Text4①Many people talked of the288,000new jobs the Labor Department reported for June, along with the drop in the unemployment rate to6.1percent,as good news.And they were right.②For now it appears the economy is creating jobs at a decent pace.③We still have along way to go to get back to full employment,but at least we are nowfially moving forward ata faster pace.①However,there is another important part of the jobs picture that was largely overlooked.②There was a big jump in the number of people who report voluntarily working part-time.③Thisfiure is now830,000(4.4percent)above its year ago level.①Before explaining the connection to the Obamacare,it is worth making an important distinction.②Many people who work part-time jobs actually want full-time jobs.③They take part-time work because this is all they can get.④An increase in involuntary part-time work is evidence of weakness in the labor market and it means that many people will be having a very hard time making ends meet.①There was an increase in involuntary part-time in June,but the general direction has been down.②Involuntary part-time employment is still far higher than before the recession, but it is down by640,000(7.9percent)from its year ago level.①We know the diffrence between voluntary and involuntary part-time employment because people tell us.②The survey used by the Labor Department asks people if they worked less than35hours in the reference week.③If the answer is“yes,”they are classifid as working part-time.④The survey then asks whether they worked less than35hours in that week because they wanted to work less than full time or because they had no choice.⑤They are only classifid as voluntary part-time workers if they tell the survey taker they chose to work less than35hours a week.①The issue of voluntary part-time relates to Obamacare because one of the main purposes was to allow people to get insurance outside of employment.②For many people, especially those with serious health conditions or family members with serious health conditions,before Obamacare the only way to get insurance was through a job that provided health insurance.①However,Obamacare has allowed more than12million people to either get insurance through Medicaid or the exchanges.②These are people who may previously have felt the need to get a full-time job that provided insurance in order to cover themselves and their families.③With Obamacare there is no longer a link between employment and insurance.36.Which part of the jobs picture was neglected?[A]The prospect of a thriving job market.[B]The increase of voluntary part-time jobs.[C]The possibility of full employment.[D]The acceleration of job creation.37.Many people work part-time because they.[A]prefer part-time jobs to full-time jobs[B]feel that is enough to make ends meet[C]cannot get their hands on full-time jobs[D]haven’t seen the weakness of the market38.Involuntary part-time employment in the US.[A]shows a general tendency of decline[B]is harder to acquire than one year ago[C]satisfis the real need of the jobless[D]is lower than before the recession39.It can be learned that with Obamacare,.[A]it is no longer easy for part-timers to get insurance[B]full-time employment is still essential for insurance[C]it is still challenging to get insurance for family

(10 points)In our contemporary culture, the prospect of communicating with -- or even looking at -- a stranger is virtually unbearable. Everyone around us seems to agree by the way they fiddle with their phones, even without a 1 underground.It's a sad reality -- our desire to avoid interacting with other human beings -- because there's 2 to be gained from talking to the stranger standing by you. But you wouldn't know it, 3 into your phone. This universal armor sends the 4 : "Please don't approach me."What is it that makes us feel we need to hide 5 our screens?One answer is fear, according to Jon Wortmann, executive mental coach. We fear rejection, or that our innocent social advances will be 6 as "creepy,". We fear we'll be 7 . We fear we'll be disruptive. Strangers are inherently 8 to us, so we are more likely to feel 9 when communicating with them compared with our friends and acquaintances. To avoid this anxiety, we 10 to our phones. "Phones become our security blanket," Wortmann says.

In one 2011 experiment, behavioral scientists Nicholas Epley and Juliana Schroeder asked commuters to do the unthinkable: Start a 13 . They had Chicago train commuters talk to their fellow 14 . "When Dr. Epley and Ms. Schroeder asked other people in the same train station to 15 how they would feel after talking to a stranger, the commuters thought their 16 would be more pleasant if they sat on their own," the New York Times summarizes. Though the participants didn't expect a positive experience, after they 17 with the experiment, "not a single person reported having been snubbed."18 , these commutes were reportedly more enjoyable compared with those sans communication, which makes absolute sense,19 human beings thrive off of social connections.

Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A new study suggests that contrary to most surveys, people are actually more stressed at home than at work. Researchers measured people’s cortisol, which is a stress marker, while they were at work and while they were at home and found it higher at what is supposed to be a place of refuge.“Further contradicting conventional wisdom, we found that women as well as men have lower levels of stress at work than at home, ” writes one of the rese archers, Sarah Damske. In fact women even say they feel better at work, she notes.“ It is men, not women, who report being happier at home than at work. ”Another surprise is that findings hold true for both those with children and without, but more so for nonparents. This is why people who work outside the home have better health.What the study doesn’t measure is whether people are still doing work when they’re at home, whether it is household work or work brought home from the office. For many men, the end of the workday is a time to kick back. For women who stay home, they never get to leave the office. And for women who work outside the home, they often are playing catch-up-with-household tasks. With the blurring of roles, and the fact that the home front lags well behind the workplace a making adjustments for working women, it’s not surprising that women are more stressed at home.But it’s not just a gender thing. At work, people pretty much know what they’re supposed to be doing: working, marking money, doing the tasks they have to do in order to draw an income. The bargain is very pure: Employee puts in hours of physical or mental labor and employee draws out life-sustaining moola.On the home front, however, people have no such clarity. Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically and methodically laid out. There are a lot of tasks to be done, there are inadequate rewards for most of them. Your home colleagues-your family-have no clear rewards for their labor; they need to be talked into it, or if they’re teenagers, threatened with complete removal of all electronic devices. Plus, they’re your family. You cannot fire your family. You never really get to go home from home.So it’s not surprising tha t people are more stressed at home. Not only are thetasks apparently infinite, the co-workers are much harder to motivate.21.According to Paragraph 1,most previous surveys found that home_____[A] offered greater relaxation than the workplace[B] was an ideal place for stress measurement[C] generated more stress than the workplace[D] was an unrealistic place for relaxation22. According to Damaske, who are likely to be the happiest at home?[A] Childless wives[B] Working mothers[C] Childless husbands[D] Working fathers23.The blurring of working women's roles refers to the fact that_____[A] it is difficult for them to leave their office[B] their home is also a place for kicking back[C] there is often much housework left behind[D] they are both bread winners and housewives24.The word“moola”(Line4,Para4)most probably means_____[A] skills[B] energy[C] earnings[D] nutrition25.The home front differs from the workplace in that_____[A] division of labor at home is seldom clear-cut[B] home is hardly a cozier working environment[C] household tasks are generally more motivating[D] family labor is often adequately rewardedText 2For years, studies have found that first-generation college students- those who do not have a parent with a college degree- lag other students on a range of education achievement factors. Their grades are lower and their dropout rates are higher. But since such students are most likely to advance economically if they succeed in higher education, colleges and universities have pushed for decades to recruit more of them. This has created “a paradox” in that recruiting first- generation students, but then watching many of them fail, means that higher education has “continued to reproduce and widen, rather than close” ab achievement gap based on social class, according to the depressing beginning of a paper forthcoming in the journal Psychological Science.But the article is actually quite optimistic, as it outlines a potential solution to this problem, suggesting that an approach (which involves a one-hour, next-to-no-cost program) can close 63 percent of the achievement gap (measured by such factors as grades) between first-generation and other students.The authors of the paper are from different universities, and their findings are based on a study involving 147 students ( who completed the project) at an unnamed private university. First generation was defined as not having a parent with a four-year college degree. Most of the first-generation students(59.1 percent) were recipients of Pell Grants, a federal grant for undergraduates with financial need, while this was true only for 8.6 percent of the students wit at least one parent with a four-year degree.Their thesis- that a relatively modest intervention could have a big impact- was based on the view that first-generation students may be most lacking not in potential but in practical knowledge about how to deal with the issues that face most college students. They cite past research by several authors to show that this is the gap that must be narrowed to close the achievement gap.Many first- generation students “struggle to navigate the middle-class culture of higher education, learn the ‘rules of the game,’ and take advantage of college resources,” they write. And this becomes more of a problem when collages don’t talk about the class advantage and disadvantages of different groups ofstudents. Because US colleges and universities seldom acknowledge how social class can affect students ’educational experience, many first-generation students lack sight about why they are struggling and do not understand how students’ like them can improve.26. Recruiting more first- generation students has_______[A] reduced their dropout rates[B] narrowed the achievement gap[C] missed its original purpose[D] depressed college students27. The author of the research article are optimistic because_______[A] the problem is solvable[B] their approach is costless[C] the recruiting rate has increased[D] their finding appeal to students28. The study suggests that most first- generation students______[A] study at private universities[B] are from single-parent families[C] are in need of financial support[D] have failed their collage29. The author of the paper believe that first-generation students_______[A] are actually indifferent to the achievement gap[B] can have a potential influence on other students[C] may lack opportunities to apply for research projects[D] are inexperienced in handling their issues at college30. We may infer from the last paragraph that_______[A] universities often reject the culture of the middle-class[B] students are usually to blame for their lack of resources[C] social class greatly helps enrich educational experiences[D]colleges are partly responsible for the problem in questionText 3Even in traditional offices, “the lingua franca of corporate America h as gotten much more emotional and much more right-brained than it was 20 years ago,” said Harvard Business School professor Nancy Koehn. She started spinning off examples. “If you and I parachuted back to Fortune 500 companies in 1990, we would see much less frequent use of terms like journey, mission, passion. There were goals, there were strategies, there were objectives, but we didn’t talk about energy; we didn’t talk about passion.”Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very “team”-oriented—and not by coincidence. “Let’s not forget sports—in male-dominated corporate America, it’s still a big deal. It’s not explicitly conscious; it’s the idea that I’m a coach, and you’re my team, and we’re in this together. There are lots and lots of CEOs in very different companies, but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win.”These terms are also intended to infuse work with meaning—and, as Khurana points out, increase allegiance to the firm. “You have t he importation of terminology that historically used to be associated with non-profit organizations and religious organizations: Terms like vision, values, passion, and purpose,” said Khurana.This new focus on personal fulfillment can help keep employees motivated amid increasingly loud debates over work-life balance. The “mommy wars” of the 1990s are still going on today, prompting arguments about why women still can’t have it all and books like Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In, whose title has become a buzzword in its own right. Terms like unplug, offline, life-hack, bandwidth, and capacity are all about setting boundaries between the office and the home. But if your work is your “passion,” you’ll be more likely to devote yourself to it, even if that means going home for dinner and then working long after the kids are in bed.But this seems to be the irony of office speak: Everyone makes fun of it, but managers love it, companies depend on it, and regular people willingly absorb it. As Nunberg said, “You can get people to think it’s nonsense at the same time that you buy into i t.” In a workplace that’s fundamentally indifferent to your life and its meaning, office speak can help you figure out how you relate to your work—and how your work defines who you are.31. According to Nancy Koehn, office language has become_____[A] more emotional[B] more objective[C] less energetic[D] less strategic32. “Team”-oriented corporate vocabulary is closely related to_______[A] historical incidents[B] gender difference[C] sports culture[D] athletic executives33.Khurana believes that the importation of terminology aims to______[A] revive historical terms[B] promote company image[C] foster corporate cooperation[D] strengthen employee loyalty34.It can be inferred that Lean In________[A] voices for working women[B] appeals to passionate workaholics[C] triggers debates among mommies[D] praises motivated employees35.Which of the following statements is true about office speak?[A] Managers admire it but avoid it[B] Linguists believe it to be nonsense[C] Companies find it to be fundamental[D] Regular people mock it but accept itText 4Many people talked of the 288,000 new jobs the Labor Department reported for June, along with the drop in the unemployment rate to 6.1 percent, as good news. And they were right. For now it appears the economy is creating jobs at a decent pace. We still have a long way to go to get back to full employment, but at least we are now finally moving forward at a faster pace.However, there is another important part of the jobs picture that was largely overlooked. There was a big jump in the number of people who repot voluntarily working part-time. This figure is now 830,000(4.4 percent)above its year ago level.Before explaining the connection to the Obamacare, it is worth making an important distinction. Many people who work part-time jobs actually want full-time jobs. They take part-time work because this is all they can get. An increase in involuntary part-time work is evidence of weakness in the labor market and it means that many people will be having a very hard time making ends meet.There was an increase in involuntary part-time in June, but the general direction has been down. Involuntary part-time employment is still far higher than before the recession, but it is down by 640,000(7.9percent)from is year ago level.We know the difference between voluntary and involuntary part-time employment because people tell us. The survey used by the Labor Department asks people is they worked les s than 35 hours in the reference week. If the answer is “yes”, they are classified as worked less than 35hours in that week because they wanted to work less than full time or because they had no choice .They are only classified as voluntary part-time workers if they tell the survey taker they chose to work less than 35 hours a week.The issue of voluntary part-time relates to Obamacare because one of the main purposes was to allow people to get insurance outside of employment. For many people , especially those with serious health conditions or family members with serious health conditions ,before Obamacare the only way to get insurance was through a job that provided health insurance.However, Obamacare has allowed more than 12 million people to either get insurance through Medicaid or the exchanges. These are people who may previously have felt the need to get a full-time job that provided insurance in order to cover themselves and their families. With Obamacare there is no longer a link between employment and insurance.36. Which part of the jobs picture are neglected?[A] The prospect of a thriving job market.[B] The increase of voluntary part-time market.[C] The possibility of full employment.[D] The acceleration of job creation.37. Many people work part-time because they_____.[A] prefer part-time jobs to full-time jobs.[B] feel that is enough to make ends meet.[C] cannot get their hands on full-time jobs.[D] haven’t seen the weakness of the market.38. Involuntary part-time employment is the US_____.[A] is harder to acquire than one year ago.[B] shows a general tendency of decline.[C] satisfies the real need of the jobless.[D] is lower than before the recession.39. It can be learned that with Obamacare,_____.[A] it is no longer easy for part-timers to get insurance[B] employment is no longer a precondition to get insurance[C] it is still challenging to get insurance for family members[D] full-time employment is still essential for insurance40. The text mainly discusses_______.[A] employment in the US[B] part-timer classification[C] insurance though Medicaid[D] Obamacare’s troublePart BDirections:In the following text, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable one from the list [A]-[G] to fit into each of the numbered blank. There are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)[A] You are not alone[B] Don’t fear responsibility for your life[C] Pave your own unique path[D] Most of your fears are unreal[E] Think about the present moment[F] Experience helps you grow[G] There are many things to be grateful forUnfortunately, life is not a bed of roses. We are going through life facing sad experiences. Moreover, we are grieving various kinds of loss: a friendship, a romantic relationship or a house. Hard times may hold you down at what usuallyseems like the most inopportune time, but you should remember that they won’t last forever.When our time of mourning is over, we press forward, stronger with a greater understanding and respect for life. Furthermore, these losses make us mature and eventually move us toward future opportunities for growth and happiness. I want to share these ten old truths I’ve learned along the way.41._____________________________Fear is both useful and harmful. This normal human reaction is used to protect us by signaling danger and preparing us to deal with it. Unfortunately, people create inner barriers with a help of exaggerating fears. My favorite actor Will Smith once said, “Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Do not misunderstand me. D anger is very real. But fear is a choice.” I do completely agree that fears are just the product of our luxuriant imagination.42_____________________________If you are surrounded by problems and cannot stop thinking about the past, try to focus on the present moment. Many of us are weighed down by the past or anxious about the future. You may feel guilt over your past, but you are poisoning the present with the things and circumstances you cannot change. Value the present moment and remember how fortunate you are to be alive. Enjoy the beauty of the world around and keep the eyes open to see the possibilities before you. Happiness is not a point of future and not a moment from the past, but a mindset that can be designed into the present.43______________________________Sometimes it is easy to feel bad because you are going through tough times. You can be easily caught up by life problems that you forget to pause and appreciate the things you have. Only strong people prefer to smile and value their life instead of crying and complaining about something.44________________________________No matter how isolated you might feel and how serious the situation is, you should always remember that you are not alone. Try to keep in mind that almost everyone respects and wants to help you if you are trying to make a good change in your life, especially your dearest and nearest people. You may have a circle of friends who provide constant good humor, help and companionship. If you have no friends or relatives, try to participate in several online communities, full of people who are always willing to share advice and encouragement.45________________________________Today many people find it difficult to trust their own opinion and seek balance by gaining objectivity from external sources. This way you devalue your opinion and show that you are incapable of managing your own life. When you are struggling to achieve something important you should believe in yourself and be sure that your decision is the best. You live in your skin, think your own thoughts, have your own values and make your own choices.Section III TranslationDirections:Translate the following text from English into Chinese. Write your translation on ANSWER SHEET 2. (15 points)Think about driving a route that’s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into town or the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the back of your hand. On these sorts of trips it’s easy to zone out from the actual driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery. The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than it actually has.This is the well-travelled road effect: people tend to underestimate the time it takes to travel a familiar route.The effect is caused by the way we allocate our attention. When we travel down a well-known route, because we don’t have to concentrate much, time seems to flow more quickly. And afterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can’t remember the journey well because we didn’t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was shorter.Section IV WritingPart A47.

考研英语复习：兼顾能力和应试的训练
考研/备考辅导2018考研英语复习：兼顾能力和应试的训练英语是考研中调过程的一个科目，除了努力、积累、厚积薄发，没有什么治疗英语弱的偏方。
学长告诉你，考研英语就要兼顾能力和应试，注重技巧训练和经验积累，提高能力以应对考试。
首先，我觉得在心态上要保持一种既为能力，又为考试的态度。
能力，就是以提高能力应对考试为主，考试则侧重于技巧训练和经验积累。
我怎么复习的?首先，要了解自己的实力所在。
例如，50到60的考生一般有一定的英语基础，但英语思维能力和做题技巧仍欠缺，需要进一步提高词汇量和培养英语思维能力，最后再辅助以做题技巧，上升空间比较大。
而低于这个分数断的考生，基础培养需要更多的功夫，可能还需要背词汇，剖析句子语法，每天积累一定的阅读量，而高于这个阶层的考生就一般具有自我学习能力，在英语思维和技巧上稍加功夫就可以了。
到我了，很早前拿到一本海文编的英语真题，把2005年之前的大概做了下，实在美得不行，觉得英语不像师哥师姐说得难(其实07之后才要命)。
以北京区为例，完型，翻译和作文都是丢分点，我是冲着80+复习的，所以，前期我主要集中训练这几块。
特别是翻译，我觉得对于理解词汇和加强语法，都特别有帮助，嫌材料不够，还可以把阅读都翻了，然后再对照参考翻译。
在这里我想说明的就是，不要盲目跟经验贴，要对自己又一定的分析，然后制定适合自己的计划，例如，我就没有把重心放在大家都注意的阅读上，因为边际收益低，而且翻译收获高。
下面逐项分析1、词汇。
词汇的重要性前面有说了。
我在考研开始前，背了大概一些吧，觉得都会了，就不背了。
也不是说没用，有时候，有些词汇挂嘴边，但记不起来，就说明对大脑刺激不够。
但我个人觉得，这种情况，还不如通过阅读做题，刷生词。
例如，我有段时间是一天最起码一篇阅读，然后积累下全部不会和重点的词汇。
这样的好处，前面也说了。
词汇书背词汇，弊端很多，可能造成混乱和不利于英语思维培养，因为同义词之间缺少比较，也一般没有英文解释。
15年考研英语二真题
15年考研英语二真题15年考研英语二真题解析在备考考研英语二的过程中，了解历年真题是非常重要的一步。
本文将对2015年考研英语二真题进行解析，帮助考生更好地理解和应对考试。
第一部分：阅读理解阅读理解是考研英语二的重点部分，也是很多考生感到困惑的部分。
2015年的考研英语二真题中，阅读理解部分包括了三篇文章，分别是关于心理学、生态学和社会学的研究。
第一篇文章是关于心理学的研究，主要讨论了人类的情绪和认知对决策的影响。
文章提到了一项实验，通过观察被试者在不同情绪状态下的决策行为，得出了情绪对决策的重要性。
这篇文章的难点在于对实验设计和结果的理解，考生需要注意抓住文章的关键信息。
第二篇文章是关于生态学的研究，主要探讨了全球气候变化对生物多样性的影响。
文章提到了气候变化导致物种灭绝和生态系统崩溃的可能性，并提出了一些保护生物多样性的措施。
这篇文章的难点在于对科学术语和实验结果的理解，考生需要有一定的生态学知识储备。
第三篇文章是关于社会学的研究，主要讨论了家庭背景对个人社会流动性的影响。
文章提到了社会阶层的不平等和社会流动性的问题，并通过一些研究数据支持了家庭背景对个人社会地位的影响。
这篇文章的难点在于对社会学理论和实证研究的理解，考生需要注意抓住文章的主旨和论证逻辑。
第二部分：完形填空完形填空是考研英语二的另一个重要部分，也是考生容易出错的部分。
2015年的考研英语二真题中，完形填空部分是一篇关于地球资源利用的文章。
这篇文章主要讨论了地球资源的有限性和人类对地球资源的过度开发的问题。
文章提到了一些环保组织和科学家的观点，呼吁人们采取可持续发展的方式利用地球资源。
这篇文章的难点在于对科学术语和逻辑关系的理解，考生需要注意抓住文章的主旨和论证逻辑。

任何一门学科都有其内在规律，对于考研英语来讲也是一样。
在此分析一下考研英语的几大规律，希望2015年的考生们能够把握这些规律，有针对的复习提高效率。
规律一：英语运用能力不等于英语考试能力
中国学生学英语的过程，是不断参加英语考试的过程，从中考英语、高考英语，四六级英语，到专四、专八英语，再到考研英语，甚至出国考试(托福、雅思、GRE等)。
在此过程中，提醒广大的2015年的考生们要明白的是，英语运用能力不等于英语考试能力，一个人英语考试时总能考高分，可就是说不好英语，而有的人听力口语能力很好，考试成绩却很一般。
这一点都不稀奇，能力强但没有经过任何考试技能训练，有可能得不到高分。
能力不强，很有可能在短期内获得考试的高分，尽管他的英语沟通能力并没有明显的提高。
因为，考试的内容是相对有限而有规定的，而能力的提高是长期的事情。
对于考研英语来说，无论是阅读理解还是英语写作，都有考试的规律性和技术性。
比如，要在阅读理解上拿高分，并不需要你完全理解文章，只要真正理解20%的内容就能解决文章80%的题目。
但是要把握如何确定哪些材料属于20%的关键材料，需要一定的考试训练。
规律二：考研英语能力的提高需要考试训练
任何一个考研高分的同学都离不开对相当数量的好题目的分析和训练。
考试能力的提高离不开考试技能的提高和对考试内容的训练。
这里提醒2015年的考生们，考试训练不是死记硬背，也不是搞题海战术，这样很容易身心疲惫。
比如有的同学在训练时做了大量的选择题目，但每次还会在同样的地方犯同样的错误，原因很简单，每次做错题后，都没有深入思考一下为什么。
这样的结果是浪费了大量的时间并且没有成就感和进步感，从而可能丧失学英语的自信。
所以，考试训练的关键问题是做题后的反思和总结，做到“知其然”，又“知其所以然”，才不至于在同一个地方跌倒两次甚至多次。
规律三：考研英语最好的备考资料——历年真题
时下，社会上充斥着各种考试培训机构，而我们判断他们的好坏的唯一标准就是其是否对该考试的历年真题做分析、研究，并从中总结出科学规律让考生在一定时间内提高成绩。
否则，它的可信度肯定是不高的。
试题一年一个样，但对基本知识点的考查是相对不变的。
英语考试所有的重点单词尽在历年真题中;英语考试所有基础重点考点尽在历年真题中;英语考试所有的重要规律尽在历年真题中。
如何最大限度发掘真题的价值?建议2015年的考生们要做到以下几点：
首先，学会纵向归纳。
这是非常重要的，因为同样的一个基本知识点会在不同年份的真题里反复出现，而往往这样的考点又是重要的考点。
这就有点像“马太效应”，越是常考的考点考得越多，考得越多的考点越是重点。
其次，学会欣赏研究正确答案。
在面对真题的每一道题目的正确答案时，我们一定要通过各种方式去了解它，研究它，让这些正确答案成为自己的好朋友，以便下次遇见时就能准确地认出它。
再次，要注意分析真题中的错误选项，严格说来应该叫做“非最佳选项”。
所谓“错误选项’是非常不容易的，是经过千挑万选的。
因此，研究它们非常有必要，非常有价值。
很多时候，我们发现，重大英语考试中的正确选项就经常在历年考题中的选项之间轮流转，反复用。
总之，正确的方法加上正确的考试战略和快乐的坚持，考研英语一定会胜利!最后希望广大2015年的考生精心备考，深挖历年考研英语真题，掌握必要的考试技能，争取考出高分，进入理想的高等学府!。
