Dr. Miller, Professor of Sociology at Washington University, has written numerous articles and books on the issues facing older Americans in our graying society for the past 15 years. Dr. Miller:Dr. Miller: Thank you for that introduction. Today, Id like to preface my remarks with a story from my own life which I feel highlights the common concerns that bring us here together. Several years ago when my grandparents were well into their eighties, they were faced with the reality of no longer being able to adequately care for themselves. My grandfather spoke of his greatest fear, that of leaving the only home they had known for the past 60 years. Fighting back the tears, he spoke proudly of the fact that he had built their home from the ground up, and that he had pounded every nail and laid every brick in the process. The prospect of having to sell their home and give up their independence, and move into a retirement home was an extremely painful experience for them. It was,in my grandfathers own words, like having a limb cut off. He exclaimed in a forceful manner that he felt he wasnt important anymore.For them and some older Americans, their so-called “golden years”are at times not so pleasant, for this period can mean the decline of not only ones health but the loss of identity and self-worth. In many societies, this self-identity is closely related with our social status, occupation, material possessions, or independence. Furthermore, we often live in societies that value what is “new” or in fashion, and our own usage of words in the English language is often a sign of bad news for older Americans. I mean how would your family react if you came home tonight exclaiming, “Hey, come to the living room and see the OLD black and white TV I brought!” Unfortunately, the word “old” calls to mind images of the need to replace or discard.Now, many of the lectures given at this conference have focused on the issues of pension reform, medical care, and the development of public facilities for senior citizens. And while these are vital issues that must be addressed, Id like to focus my comments on an important issue that will affect the overall success of the other programs mentioned. This has to do with changing our perspectives on what it means to be a part of this group, and finding meaningful roles the elderly can play and should play in our societies.First of all, Id like to talk about . . .16. What does the introduction say about Dr. Howard Millers articles and books?17. What is the greatest fear of Dr. Millers grandfather?18. What does Dr. Miller say the “golden years” can often mean?19. What is the focus of Dr. Millers speech?解:这是一篇关于老龄化社会,老年人的晚年生活等问题的演讲。
2021年四六级取消是不是真的四六级英语改革最新消息
2021年四六级取消是不是真的四六级英语改革最新消息步入大学,经历了懵懂无知的大一,大学也要努力拼搏,考取相关证书,而对于英语四六级,是大学生老生常谈的话题,英语四六级将迎来大改革,但是2021年不会取消。
在大学,英语四六级一直是很多人的一块心病,正所谓心病还须心药医,最直接的办法是期待有一天能够取消英语四六级,但是,这一天真的会到来吗?说起四六级考试取消这件事儿,其实早在2021年就有了些许的消息,当时国务院颁布的《关于深化考试招生制度改革的实施意见》中,明确提出要加强“外语能力测评体系建设”。
为此,教育部定下目标:到2021年,基本建成标准统一、功能多元的现代化外语测评体系,同时推动考试内容和形式的改革。
而在2021年《第二届语言测试与评价国际研讨会》上,四六级取消的消息再次被推上了。
当时会上说:“2021年计划逐步推出国家英语能力等级考试,制定覆盖大中小学各教育阶段、覆盖听说读写译综合能力、覆盖外语学习及教学与的统一的国家外语能力标准。
”可以肯定的是,四六级考试不会在2021年取消,中国英语能力等级量表和英语能力等级考试的推出并不代表四六级考试将会立即取消。
英语能力等级考试的推广将是一个长期的、复杂的工程,不会立即取代现有的高考英语、四六级考试、考研英语等。
但统一的考试标准是考试改革的努力目标,也是发展趋势。
第一:国家通过量表形式确定考生四六级能力等级通过量表形式可以直观地看出考生在一定阶段内的表现,这是针对于全国英语学习者而定。
并分为基础,提高和熟练三个方向,划分9个等级的评判标准,从小学,初中,高中,大学直至相关的英语从事人员。
对这些都有所考察和涉猎。
第二:等级评定标准发生改变由原来的“CET”变为“NETS”,NETS其含义为国家英语能力等级考试,相对于以前而言,有原来的CET-4变为NETS-5,CET-6变为NETS-6,评定标准的的改变从侧面反映了整体难度的加大。
第三:考试内容和时长有所调整这次改革,总时长发生了变化,四级由原来的125分钟变为155分钟,其中听力,阅读时长增长。
2023年新四级应试技巧
新四级应试技巧四级改革后旳变化和趋势:新四级由四大部分构成: 1.听力理解时间35分钟, 包括两个部分: 听力对话占15%, 含8个短对话共8道多选题和2个长对话共7道多选题;听力短文占20%: 含3篇短文理解共10道多选题和一篇短文复合式听写共8词3句。
听力理解占总分旳35%, 合计249分。
2. 阅读理解时间40分钟, 分为两个部分: 仔细阅读理解时间25分钟, 占25%, 含两个小部分(篇章阅读理解包括2篇文章10道多选题;篇章词汇理解或短句问答是一篇文章, 考法是15选10旳选词填空或简答);迅速阅读理解时间15分钟, 占10%, 包括是非判断7题及句子填空或其他3题。
阅读理解占总分旳35%, 合计149分。
3.完形填空或改错时间15分钟, 1篇文章, 20道多选题或改错, 占总分旳10%, 合计70分。
4.写作和翻译时间35分钟, 分为两个部分: 写作时间30分钟, 占15%, 共106分;中译英时间5分钟, 占5%, 共36分。
合计20%, 142分。
通过对比, 我们发现: 新四级60%旳题型沿用了老四级题型, 加入了40%旳新题型。
题型增长, 题量加大, 速度规定加紧;但同步每种题型旳难度减少。
答题时间共125分钟, 次序是:写作、迅速阅读、听力、仔细阅读、完型填空和汉译英。
考生首先在答题卡1上完毕写作部分。
30分钟后, 监考员发试题册, 考生在接着旳15分钟内完毕迅速阅读理解部分旳试题。
然后, 监考员收回答题卡1。
考生在答题卡2上完毕其他部分旳试题。
在答题过程中, 考生必须在答题卡上作答, 在试题册上作答无效。
所有选择性试题务必用2B浓度旳铅笔划线作答;所有非选择性试题(即写作、填空等)务必用黑色字迹签字笔作答。
技巧:一写作:就用词而言: 你旳作文关键词要会换用, 不要老用反复旳词, 例如说曾经考过一篇怎样在面试中成功旳作文, 诸多同学写面试者, 作文里面全是用了interviewee, 你不妨用job applicant替代, 作文基本要注意这样子, 不在意他考什么样旳题型, 你只需要把某些体现常见概念旳某些句型和用词把握住了, 就差不多了。

对大学英语四级考试新题型的分析
对大学英语四级考试新题型的分析关键词:大学英语;考试变化;备考技巧;分析大学英语四级考试是引导学生学习英语、检验学生英语能力的重要方式,根据《全国大学生英语四六级考试改革方案》进行的四级考试新题型试卷,进行多方面的改革,在考试内容和形式上了有了很大的突破,改革了分数的报道方式,改革了考试和管理体制,强化考务管理,最为重要的是考试内容和形式。
改革后的新题型对于大学英语教学会有何指导意义,高校教学又该如何组织实施英语教学以适应当前新题型的变化。
一、大学英语四级考试变化分析1.提高听力比重在新题型试卷的设计安排中,听力所占的比重由20%上升到35%,具体的题型也分为短对话、长对话、短文章、复合式听写四种。
在第一部分中,8个小对话和2个长对话组成,突出交际交流情境;第二部分则由3个短篇文章组成;第三部分称作复合式听写。
同时,增设了长对话听力,设置难度在小对话和短文章之间,每个长对话共有34道试题。
题量增加,比重加大,考试时间延长(由原来的20分钟变为35分钟),共占249分,充分体现了新大纲对英语教学“听读并重”的原则。
2.增设快速阅读阅读能力是大学生的一项最为基本的能力,新型大学四级英语考试在检测阅读能力方面手段更加丰富多样,主要表现为题型设置的多样化,这对学生的英语阅读能力提出了更高的要求。
意在考查考生对英语文段的整体把握能力、理解能力,掌握快速阅读的基本技巧。
阅读的比重从以前的比重降为35%,其中仔细阅读的份额占比变为20%,从具体数量上减少了两篇,题型还是学生比较熟悉的四选一。
同时,增加了新的阅读考查方式——选词填空和快速阅读,选词填空的阅读是新型考查形式,从一篇220字符左右的英语文段中,空出10个空让学生从15个单词选项中选出10个最佳答案;另外,给出一篇1200字符左右的英语文段,要求学生在15分钟内快速阅读,并根据理解对文段后的7道判断题判定正误,三道填空题根据文段填空。
这种改变一言以蔽之,大大提高阅读难度,通过试题考查引导学生根据教学大纲要求,把阅读和想象结合起来,增强学生的理解能力。

At the end of each news report, you will hear two or three questions. Both the news report and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.Kenyan police say one person was killed and 26 injured in an explosion at a bus station in central Nairobi. The blast hit a bus about to set off for the Ugandan capital Kampala. LastJuly, the Somali group al-Shabab said it was behind the blasts in the Ugandan capital which killed more than 70 people. Will Ross reports from the Kenyan capital.The explosion happened beside a bus which was about to set off for an overnight journey from Nairobi to the Ugandan capital Kampala. Some eyewitnesses report that a bag was about to be loaded on board, but it exploded during a security check. Windows of the red bus were left smashed, and blood could be seen on the ground beside the vehicle. Just hours earlier, Uganda’s police chief had warn ed of possible Christmas-time attacks by Somali rebels.1. What is the news report mainly about?2. When did the incident occur?Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item.Woolworths is one of the best known names on the British High Street. It’s been in business nearly a century. Many of its 800 stores are likely to close following the company’s decision to call in administrators after an attempt to sell the business for a token £1 failed.The company has huge debt s. The immediate cause for the collapse has been Britain’s slide toward recession, which has cut into consumer spending. However, the business had been in trouble for years.Known for low-priced general goods, Woolworths has struggled in the face of competition from supermarkets expanding beyond groceries and a new generation of internet retailers.Many of the store group’s 25,000 employees are likely to lose their jobs. Some profitable areas such as the DVD publishing business will survive.3. What do we learn about Woolworths from the news report?4. What did Woolworths attempt to do recently?Questions 5 to 7 will be based on the following news item.Cairo is known for its overcrowded roads, irregular driving practices and shaky old vehicles, but also for its air pollution. In recent months, though, environmental studies indicate there have been signs of improvement. That’s due in part to the removal of many of the capital’s old-fashioned black and white taxis. Most of these dated back to the 1960s and 70s and were in a poor state of repair.After new legislation demanded their removal from the roads, a low interest loan scheme was set up with three Egyptian banks so drivers could buy new cars. The government pays about $900 for old ones to be discarded and advertising on the new vehicles helps cover repayments.The idea has proved popular with customers ― they can now travel in air-conditioned comfort and because the new cabs are metered, they don’t have to argue over fares. Banks and car manufacturers are glad for the extra business in tough economic times. As for the taxi drivers, most are delighted to be behind the wheel of new cars, although there have been a few complaints about switching from black and white to a plain white colour.5. What change took place in Cairo recently?6. What helped bring about the change?7. Why do customers no longer argue with new cab drivers?Section BDirections: In this section, you will hear two long conversations. At the end of each conversation, you will hear four questions.

At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneIn today’s class, we’ll discuss Toni Morrison’s novel Beloved.As I’m sure you all know, Morrison is both a popular and a highly respected author, and it’s not easy to be both. Born in 1931, Morrison has written some of the most touching and intelligent works on theAfrican-American experience ever written by anyone, and yet to call her an“African-American writer” doesn’t seem to do her justice. In many ways, she’s simply an American writer—and certainly one of our best.Beloved is a truly remarkable work. It was recommended for nearly every major literary prize, including the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award, and it in fact won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1988. Morrison herself is distinguished for having won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1993.What makes Beloved unique is the skillful, sure way in which Morrison blends intensely personal storytelling and American history, racial themes and gender themes, the experience of Blacks with the experience of all people everywhere, the down-to-earth reality of slavery with a sense of mysterious spirituality.W e’ll be paying special attention to these themes as we discuss this work. I’m particularly interested in your views on the relative importance of race and gender in this book. Is it more important that Sethe, the main character, is black or that she’s a wo man? Which contributes more to her being? What does Morrison tell us about both?Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.16. What do we learn about Toni Morrison?17. What honor did Toni Morrison receive in 1993?18. What does the speaker tell us about Sethe, the main character in Morrison’snovel Beloved?Passage TwoThe topic of my talk today is gift-giving. Everybody likes to receive gifts, right? So you may think that gift-giving is a universal custom. But actually, the rules of gift-giving vary quite a lot, and not knowing them can result in great embarrassment. In North America, the rules are fairly simple. If you’re invited to someone’s home for dinner, bring wine or flowers or a small item from your co untry. Among friends, family, and business associates, we generally don’t give gifts on other occasions except on someone’s birthday and Christmas. The Japanese, on the other hand, give gifts quite frequently, often to thank someone for their kindness. The tradition of gift-giving in Japan is very ancient. There are many detailed rules for everything from the color of the wrapping paper to the time of the gift presentation. And while Europeans don’t generally exchange business gifts, they do follow some for mal customswhen visiting homes, such as bringing flowers. The type and color of flowers, however, can carry special meaning.Today we have seen some broad differences in gift-giving. I could go on with additional examples. But let’s not miss the main poi nt here: If we are not aware of and sensitive to cultural differences, the possibilities for miscommunication and conflict are enormous. Whether we learn about these differences by reading a book or by living abroad, our goal must be to respect differences among people in order to get along successfully with our global neighbors.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.19. What does the speaker say about gift-giving of North Americans?20. What do we learn about the Japanese concerning gift-giving?21. What point does the speaker make at the end of the talk?Passage ThreeHetty Green was a very spoilt, only child. She was born in Massachusetts, USA, in 1835. Her father was a millionaire businessman. Her mother was often ill, and so from the age of two her father took her with him to work and taught her about stocks and shares. At the age of six she started reading the daily financial newspapers and opened her own bank account.Her father died when she was 21 and she inherited $7.5 million. She went to New York and invested on Wall Street. Hetty saved every penny, eating in the cheapest restaurants for 15 cents. She became one of the richest and most hated women in the world. At 33 she married Edward Green, a multi-millionaire, and had two children, Ned and Sylvia.Hetty’s meanness was well known. She always argued about prices in shops. She walked to the local grocery store to buy broken biscuits which were much cheaper, and to get a free bone for her much loved dog. Once she lost a two-cent stamp and spent the night looking for it. She never bought clothes and always wore the same long, ragged black skirt. Worst of all, when her son Ned fell and injured his knee, she refused to pay for a doctor and spent hours looking for free medical help. In the end Ned lost his leg.When she died in 1916 she left her children $100 million. Her daughter built a hospital with her money.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.22. What do we learn about Hetty Green as a child?23. How did Hetty Green become rich overnight?24. Why was Hetty Green much hated?25. What do we learn about Hetty’s daughter?参考答案Part II Listening Comprehension Section A1. B2. C3. A4. D5. D6. A7. CSection B8. D9. B10. B11. C12. A13. B14. C15. DSection C16. A17. B18. D19. D20. C21.

Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1with a single line through the centre.Conversation OneW: Hello.M: Hello, is that the reference library?W: Yes. Can I help you?M: I hope so. I rang earlier and asked for some information about Denys Hawtin, the scientist. You asked me to ring back.W: Oh, yes. I have found something.M: Good. I’ve got a pencil and paper. Pe rhaps you could read out what it says.W: Certainly. Hawtin, Denys. Born: Darlington 1836; died New York 1920.M: Yes. Got that.W: Inventor and physicist. The son of a farm worker, he was admitted to the University of London at the age of fifteen.M: Yes.W: He graduated at seventeen with a first class degree in Physics and Mathematics. All right?M: Yes, all right.W: He made his first notable achievement at the age of eighteen. It was a method of refrigeration which arose from his work in low temperature physics. He became professor of Mathematics at the University of Manchester at twenty-four, where he remained for twelve years. During that time he married one of his students,Natasha Willoughby.M: Yes. Go on.W: Later, working together in London, they laid the foundation of modern Physics by showing that normal laws of cause and effect do not apply at the level of subatomic particles. For this he and his wife received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1910, and did so again in 1912 for their work on very high frequency radio waves. In his lifetime Hawtin patented 244 inventions. Do you want any more?M: Yes. When did he go to America?W: Let me see. In 1920 he went to teach in New York, and died there suddenly after only three weeks. Still, he was a good age.M: Yes. I suppose so. Well, thanks.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. What do we learn about Denys Hawtin when he was 15?2. What did Denys Hawtin do at the age of 24?3.

Why did Denys Hawtin go to New York?Conversation TwoW: This is Lisa Meyer in the WBZ newsroom, talking with Mike Bassichis, who is the director of the Gifford School, about the cleanup fr om last week’s fire and what the possible cause of that blaze may have been.M: We’re getting ready for our entire staff to return early from vacation tomorrow whereupon we are going to move into temporary classrooms. And the other buildings that did not burn are being de-smoked. As to the cause of the fire, all we know is that we were having trouble with the pilot lights since we bought the stove in July and it had been serviced three times. Well, as a matter of fact, we think it was a malfunctioning stove that may have caused the fire. Nothing definite yet has been determined.W: Have you heard from other schools or other institutional users of this stove that have had the same problem?M: No. I wouldn’t know anything more about the stove itself. All I kno w is that this fire went up so quickly that there’s been a suspicion about why it went up so quickly. And it may be that there was a gas blast. But, again, this has not been determined officially by anybody.。

12月起英语四、六级考试题型将有4大调整
2013年12月起英语四、六级考试题型将有4大调整
自2013年12月起,全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会将对四、六级考试的试卷结构和测试题型作局部调整。
调整后,四级和六级的试卷结构和测试题型相同,原本的完形填空题被取消,新增短句翻译,考试时间由120分钟延长至130分钟。
全国大学英语四、六级考试改革一直是社会关注热点。
此次四、六级考试调整包括4个方面:听力部分的复合式听写部分由过去的8个单词和3句话的题目形式,改成了考察10个单词或短语的形式。
快速阅读部分变成段落信息匹配题,其中四级考试需要看10个左右的段落,然后匹配10个信息点;六级则是15个段落,匹配10个信息点。
完形填空消失,取而代之的是经过加长版本的'短句翻译,即将一篇完整的小文章,中文翻成英文。
考试时间从过去的120分钟延长到了130分钟。
考试调整以后,考生如何备考?新东方一名英语老师认为,对于听力部分来说,考生首先单词要背得熟悉,不但要搞清楚它的发音,更要弄清具体用法。
平时要注意积累单词拼写知识,在最后答题时才会比较顺手。
阅读题型的变革,对于学生的要求比较高,尤其是四、六级考生学生,要注意提高阅读能力,比如读文章的时候要养成用英语直接阅读的习惯,这样才能保证阅读速度又快又准。
短句翻译关键要了解语法,然后可以根据拆分和组合的法则进行翻译。
另悉,新的大学四、六级考试办法将从今年12月21日执行。

大学英语四六级改革政策变化盘点
大学英语四六级改革政策变化盘点英语四六级考试真是让人高兴让人愁哇,为适应时代进展,四六级考试也在不断改革进步,下面是我整理的高校英语四六级改革政策改变盘点,盼望大家喜爱。
改革大大事一:高校英语四六级口语分级考起,全国高校英语四、六级考试口语考试(CETSET)将分设四级和六级两个级别,即“全国高校英语四级口语考试(CETSET4)”和“全国高校英语六级口语考试(CETSET6)”。
原CETSET将设定为CETSET6。
改革大大事二:英语四六级听力调整◆一、四级听力试题的调整取消短对话取消短文听写新增短篇新闻(3段)其余测试内容不变。
◆二、六级听力试题的调整取消短对话取消短文听写听力篇章调整为2篇(原3篇)新增讲座/讲话(3篇)其他测试内容不变。
改革大大事三:11月口语报考条件改变,报考无门槛全国高校英语四、六级考试委员会办公室发布《下半年全国高校英语四、六级口语考试报名通知》,报考资格那一栏的有了明显的改变,由“从6月及以后全国高校英语四六级(含网考)考试成果为425分及以上”变成了“仅接受完成12月高校英语四六级级笔试报考的考生”。
◆通知解读:下半年起,报名四六级口试没有分数的限制了。
之前官方规定:四六级425分及以上才有资格参与四六级口语考试。
如今没有门槛的限制,只需先报名笔试,随后即可报名口试。
◆温馨提示:想要参与口语考试的同学,记得在九月底先报名笔试,笔试报名时间请关注学校教务处。
改革大大事四:四六级成果单改革,将显示口语成果!通知原文:“成果报告单将同时报道本次口试成果及12月份笔试成果,如考生仅参与笔试,成果报告单照常发放,口试成果栏部分显示为空;成果单将发至笔试报考学校。
”通知解读:从下半年开头,一张成果单会同时报道本次口试成果及笔试成果。
要是没有参与口语考试的同学,口语成果那一栏可能会显示为空,将不会有成果!为空是表示“缺考”还是“零分”呢?!当你找工作时,面试官看到你的成果单上的一项成果为空,说不定机会就会跟你失之交臂。
2023年12月六级改革内容
CET-6六级具体变化如下:1. 完型填空部分彻底取消;这个我们从初中英语考试就熟悉的题型,化为乌有咯~2. 听写复合式听写考察10个单词或短语的填空,不再考察句子,难度系数略微下降;3. 阅读取消快速阅读,改为段落信息匹配题;按照四六级官方公布的样卷,规定考生为15个给定段落,选择一个信息匹配的表述;15个段落,相应10个匹配表述,也就是说,有的段落是干扰信息,你是选不出匹配信息地,需要你进行选择性排除,有别于四级。
此外,六级阅读中,尚有一个变化,值得关注!在四级的阅读中,原先就又“选词填空”这个题目:一篇阅读中挖出10个空,让你从15个给定单词中,选择10个填进去。
六级原先没有这个题目,六级考的是“简答题”:一篇阅读的后面,有5个简答题,规定你根据原文信息,写出这5个题目的答案。
如今,六级阅读中的“简答题”已经取消,取而代之的“选词填空”。
4. 翻译之前5%分数的5个中译英的短句翻译,改为了180-200字的段落中译英翻译;题材,涉及到中国地历史、文化、经济和社会发展;比如,新六级的样卷,涉及的是春节的内容:新六级翻译样卷:中国新年是中国最重要的传统节日,在中国也被称为春节。
新年的庆祝活动从除夕开始一直延续到元宵节(the Lantern Festival),即从农历(lunar calendar)最后一个月的最后一天至新年第一个月的第十五天。
各地欢度春节的习俗和传统有很大差异,但通常每个家庭都会在除夕夜团聚,一起吃年夜饭。
为驱厄运、迎好运,家家户户都会进行大扫除。
人们还会在门上粘贴红色的对联(couplets),对联的主题为健康、发财和好运。
其他的活动尚有放鞭炮、发红包和探亲访友等。
新六级翻译样卷答案:Chinese New Year is the most important traditional Chinese holiday. In China, itis also known as the Spring Festival.

大学英语四级改革后新题型解析
大学英语四级改革后新题型解析大学英语四级改革后新题型解析一、试卷描述四级和六级的试卷结构、测试内容、测试题型、分值比例和考试时间如下表所示:二、新题型说明1. 单词及词组听写原复合式听写调整为单词及词组听写,短文长度及难度不变。
要求考生在听懂短文的基础上,用所听到的原文填写空缺的单词或词组,共10题。
短文播放三遍。
建昆点评:从样卷看,10个答案中,共短语占2~3个。
单词拼写难度两张试卷难度依然比较模糊,例如四级可以考到appropriately这样的难词,而六级也可以考出romantic这种四级在1998年就考过的词汇。
几乎所有人都认为,取消句子听写会使得听写难度减弱,恰恰相反,这只会使考生的偶然得分率提高,而考生长期忽视听写和拼写的事实会导致必然失分率的增加。
因为在过去的句子听写中,整句2%的分值可以至少保证考生写出句子中部分较为简单的单词继而得分,而新试卷中,一词(或一个短语)占1%的设计,会让得分和失分出现在转瞬之间。
你不妨做个测试,先看看以下几个中文词组,看能写出几个?然后看下拉看答案。
易受伤害的; 聪明的; 抽象的; 把事情搞清楚;答案:Vulnerable intelligent abstract figuring things out策略:请确认,在每次做完听力题目之后,题目选项和对应原文(答案区域)中全部单词短语保证拼写成功。
不用急,稍后,在考前约一个月,建昆老师的微信将开始播发每日听写训练。
2. 长篇阅读原快速阅读理解调整为长篇阅读理解,篇章长度和难度不变。
篇章后附有10个句子,每句一题。
每句所含的信息出自篇章的某一段落,要求考生找出与每句所含信息相匹配的段落。
有的段落可能对应两题,有的段落可能不对应任何一题。
建昆点评:这种设置,在雅思阅读中被称之为“段落信息匹配题”,经典之处在于迷惑力强。
请关注这句话:有的段落可能对应两题,有的'段落可能不对应任何一题。
按样卷的设置:四级本题共计9段,对应10题,这意味着必有一段对应两题;六级本题共计15段,对应10题,这意味着必有5题是纯干扰段。
四六级大纲改版
四六级大纲改版
四六级大纲改版主要涉及以下几个方面:

英语四六级考试变化与应对策略2023
英语四六级考试变化与应对策略2023近年来,随着全球化的进程加快,英语作为一门国际通用语言的地位日益重要。
对于中国学生而言,英语四六级考试是衡量其英语水平的重要标志之一。
而2023年的英语四六级考试,预计会面临一些变化。
本文将就这些变化提出相应的应对策略。
首先,听力部分的变化是英语四六级考试中较为常见的。
在2023年的考试中,听力部分可能会增加干扰项的使用频率,更加注重测试学生的听力理解能力。
面对这一变化,学生需要通过多听多练的方式提高自己的听力水平。
可在日常生活中多听英语广播、英语歌曲或许多英语听力材料,提高自己的听力敏感度。
同时,还可以参加一些英语角、英语听说俱乐部,提高自己的真实语境下的听力能力。
其次,阅读部分也可能有一些变化。
在2023年的四六级考试中,阅读题目可能更加注重对文章细节的理解和推理能力的考察。
因此,学生需要注重阅读技巧的训练。
在平时的备考过程中,可以选择一些与考试类似的文章进行阅读,同时培养自己分析文章结构和逻辑的能力,以便更好地理解文章背后的意义。
此外,积累一些常见的词汇和短语也是非常重要的,这将有助于更好地理解文章的内容。
写作和翻译部分也是四六级考试中对于学生而言较为困难的。
在2023年的考试中,写作和翻译题目可能会更加注重学生的语法运用和语言表达能力。
因此,学生需要注重语法的学习和写作技巧的训练。
在备考过程中,可以选择一些范文进行分析和模仿,学习其中的语法结构和表达方式。
同时,平时也要注重积累一些常见的翻译技巧和常用的表达方式,以便在考试中更加得心应手。
最后,口语部分也是需要学生重视的一块内容。
在2023年的考试中,口语部分可能会更加注重学生的口语表达能力和沟通能力。
因此,学生需要多加练习口语,并提升自己的口语表达水平。
可以与同学或老师进行口语对练,参加口语角或英语角等活动,以提高自己的口语表达能力。
同时,多参与一些英语演讲比赛或读书会,锻炼自己在公众场合下的口语表达能力。
英语四级年底全面启用新大纲新题型
英语四级年底全面启用新大纲新题型英语四级年底全面启用新大纲新题型英语新四级年底开考省教育考试院消息,今年下半年开始,全国大学英语四级考试全面启用新大纲、新题型;六级考试下半年试点,明年开始全部按新大纲命题、考试。
与原四级考试相比,第一、新四级考试流程有调整。
四级先考写作后考听力新四级的考试流程与原四级正好相反,先考写作,听力考试则放在了最后。
9时10分考试正式开始,考试分为四个部分:9时10分~9时40分写作,9时40分~9时55分快速阅读理解,10时~11时20分做答第三、四部分听力。
考听力时,直接播放试题,之前不再播放考场指令。
第二、听力比重明显增加。
新题型中,听力比重由原来的20%上升到35%,其中听力对话占15%。
时间加长至35分钟。
以往考查的小对话由原来的10题减少为8题,另外还增加了长对话这种新题型,共两篇。
第三、新四级考试翻译题型发生了变化,由考查英译汉转变为考查汉译英。
六级成绩分4部分,分别为:听力(20%)、阅读(40%)、综合(25%)、作文(15%)。
各单项的满分分别为:听力142分;阅读284分;综合178分;作文106分。
四六级限在校学生参考大学英语四、六级考试对象限制在高校内部,全日制普通高等院校本、专科、研究生在校生、各类全日制成人高等学校本、专科在校生、修完大学英语四级课程的学生才能报考大学英语四级(CET4),修完大学英语六级课程且CET4达到425分或具有CET4合格证书的学生才能报考CET6。
社会考生可参加全国英语等级考试。
针对社会上“全国大学英语四、六级考试会不会取消”的猜测,教育部新闻发言人王旭明日前说,“四、六级英语考试仍然是评价大学英语教学的一个相对客观的标准。
”“大学英语四、六级考试已经走过20年,考生规模已经达到1000多万人。
四、六级英语考试对我国高等教育英语教学质量的提高发挥了重要作用,不会被取消。
”。

英语四六级考试调整有4大方面:听力部分的复合式听写部分由过去的8个单词和3句话的题目形式,改成了考察10个单词或短语的形式;快速阅读部分变成段落信息匹配题,其中四级考试需要看10个左右的段落,然后匹配10个信息点;六级则是15个段落,匹配10
个信息点;完形填空取消,取而代之的是经过加长版本的短句翻译,即将一篇完整的小文章,中文翻译成英文;考试时间从过去的120分钟延长到130分钟。
云南大学大外部陈老师分析认为,变化则体现在对考生运用语言能力要求的提升,过往的应试题型也逐渐被淘汰。
不少同学却发出了“考试会更难”等声音,培训机构也预测,培训报名将出现小高峰。
改变1
听写句子改为单词或词组
原试题难度:
新试题难度:
根据新题型的说明,原复合式听写调整为单词及词组听写,短文长度及难度不变。
相比之前,听写变成全部考察单词短语。
原来的复合式听写,要求考生根据听到的内容写出3个句子和7个单词。
要求考生在听懂短文的基础上,用所听到的原文填写空缺的单词或词组,共10题。
短文播放三遍。
对于此番变化,云南大学大外部陈教师认为,虽然考生需要听的内容多了,但可以结合全文的意思来完成填空,实际是降低了难度。
也有四六级考试阅卷教师表示,现行的四级考试是听写3个句子,每句2分,共6分。
所听写的句子对于很多考生来说都“过长”了,体现在卷面上,通常是一个个词组,很难形成完整的一句话。
改成单词或词组之后,相比之前的句子来说,难度降低了,但对于学生对整段听力的理解能力则有提高要求。
改变2
快速阅读变段落信息匹配题
原试题难度:
新试题难度:
在此次调整中,快速阅读理解的变化也很大。
在此之前,长篇阅读部分,原来快速阅读部分要求15分钟完成15题,不少同学因为时间紧迫,考试结束铃声响起,也基本上还未和最后两题“见面”。
此次调整后,原来的选择加填空调整为匹配题。
篇章后附有10个句子,每句一题。
每句所含的信息出自篇章的某一段落,要求考生找出与每句所含信息相匹配的段落。
有的段落可能对应两题,有的段落可能不对应任何一题。
陈老师表示,从之前的考试来看,占据超过400分的阅读题目,一般都是考生的得分重点,无论是前7题判断还是后8题填空补充,较整体试卷来说,都是考生较为擅长的部分。
此次变化之后,不但要求考生对于文章全篇能够有所理解,还要求学生对于文章的一些细节能够把握,对学生的宏观概括总结能力则有较为明显的提升要求,要求学生要将知识赋予运用转换能力,不仅要读懂,还要对所掌握的信息积极性加工处理。
也有老师认为,一一对应的答题形式,难度增加的趋势明显,但目前的单篇的阅读词汇量已经在千词左右,改变之后的长阅读究竟会有多少词汇量,还有待观察。
而之前将题目的句子直接往文章里套的做法,在新四六级的考试当中明显不行了。
改变3
单句翻译变段落翻译
原试题难度:
新试题难度:
根据现行的翻译题型设置,考生需要进行5个单句的汉译英翻译,且题目会给一半信息。
改革后的方案,原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英,分值比过去提高了15分,取消的完形填空分值全部补充到翻译部分。
陈老师认为,整段翻译要求学生对文章的理解能力更强,上下语句之间产生关联,这对于考生理解全文的精神有所帮助。
这改变了单句翻译看重语法使用理解及词组含意理解的传统,也是英语综合利用的一个很好的实践。
但需要注意的是,考生对全文要有综合掌握的能力,如果对一些重点要素理解片面,前后语句关系分析不到位,就容易造成全篇文章的“跑偏”。
有老师认为,中国历史、文化等题目被明确进入翻译题型,这也说明可能会出现一些专有名词或是非常用的词汇,对于学生的词汇掌握能力也有一定的提升要求。
此外,由于翻译部分在四六级考试中属“扣分不严”项目,这样的改变,对于给分把握不会产生太大影响。
陈老师还说,之前15分的完形填空,让不少学生觉得难度很大,加之在试卷中的位置安排靠后,通常学生仅有20分钟的时间来答题,最后的效果也不佳,从多年的实际效果看来,完形填空确实是整个试卷中失分率较高的题目,此番取消也是利大于弊。
对于一些想在完形填空中投机的同学,蒙选项的可能性则将不再存在,这也要求考生必须回到翻译上做足功课。
2013年12月全国大学英语四六级考试题型调整通知
自2013年12月考次起,全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会将对四、六级考试的试卷结构和测试题型作局部调整。
调整后,四级和六级的试卷结构和测试题型相同。
一、试卷描述
四级和六级的试卷结构、测试内容、测试题型、分值比例和考试时间如下表所示:
二、新题型说明
1. 单词及词组听写
原复合式听写调整为单词及词组听写,短文长度及难度不变。
要求考生在听懂短文的基础上,用所听到的原文填写空缺的单词或词组,共10题。
短文播放三遍。
2. 长篇阅读
原快速阅读理解调整为长篇阅读理解,篇章长度和难度不变。
篇章后附有10个句子,每句一题。
每句所含的信息出自篇章的某一段落,要求考生找出与每句所含信息相匹配的段落。
有的段落可能对应两题,有的段落可能不对应任何一题。
3. 翻译
原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英。
翻译内容涉及中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等。
四级长度为140-160个汉字;六级长度为180-200个汉字。
三、成绩报道
成绩报道分为总分和单项分。
单项分包括:1)听力,2)阅读,3)翻译和写作。
英语四级评分标准及分数换算表
评分标准:
大学英语四、六级考试的原始分数在经过加权、等值处理后,参照常模转换为均值为500、标准差为70的常模正态分数。
同时,四、六级考试不设及格线,考试合格证书改为成绩报告单。
四、六级考试单项分的报道分为四个部分,这四个部分以及各部分所占的分值比例分别为:听力(20%)、阅读(40%)、综合(25%)、作文(15%)。
各单项报道分的满分分别为:听力142分;阅读284分;综合178分;作文106分。
各单项报道分相加之和等于报道总分。
四、六级的单项报道分也是常模正态分数,但参照的常模是相应的单项常模。
因此,单项报道分能够报道考生在各单项常模群体中所处的百分位置。
举例如下:某考生四级作文报道分数是62分,则其在常模群体中的百分位是在77%~86%之间,表示这名考生的英语成绩至少要优于常模群体中77%的人,但不会优于86%的人。
某考生六级听力报道分数是100分,则其在常模群体中的百分位是54%,表示这名考生的英语听力成绩优于常模群体中54%的人。
