大学英语六级CET6考试复习资料整理版1大学英语六级复习资料本文档为大学英语六级CET6的复习资料内容全而首先对六级和四级考试的区别进行了介绍然后分别按照六级考试中考题的顺序对题型进行了介绍一次为写作、阅读、听力、深度阅读、完形填空、翻译、常考词组及经典作文范文等进行了介绍。

是很好的大学英语六级备考资料六级在考试内容方面与与四级的区别一、要求的词汇量不同四级需要4500词汇量左右而六级至少需要5500左右的词汇量。

二、题型和结构有所差异英语四、六级考试的题型基木相同但是在具体形式上也存在一些差异主要在体现在阅读和作文部分三、难度区别快速阅读仔细阅读A部分文章篇幅作文四级7个选择题选词填空15选10 ——字数要求120左右六级7个选择题3个填空题短句问答六级阅读文章的篇幅普遍比四级长字数要求150左右2•六级考试的难度明显高于四级这也是为什么很多考生不用怎么花力气凭借以前的积累也能通过四级的及格线而在六级考试中则感到相当吃力。

因为词汇的积累是基础词汇量的大量增加必然会要求提高词汇记忆的难度否则在听力和阅读过程中就会困难重重。

听力和阅读是四、六级考试中分值比例最高的两部分，六级的难度增加也主要体现在这两个方面1、听力六级听力材料的语速要略快于四级考试四级的很多是直线思维一步到位的找到正确答案而六级考试时常要求你多绕几个弯这对反应力和速度的要求多提高了。

同时听写部分的3个句子的长度六级长于四级。

2、阅读前面己经提高词汇量和阅读材料篇幅的增加必然导致阅读难度的增加因为时间并未变化相比于四级要求考生在相同的时间里阅读更多。

由选择题变为填空题和短句问答要求考牛能够不仅能掌握文章的总体大意还要能注意细节能迅速冋到原文找到相对应的句子还可以用自己的语言表达出来。

难度明显大于四级的选择题型。

最重要是六级加大了主观性试题的测试偏重听说读写实际应用能力的考查。

全国英语六级CET-6考试复习资料

全国英语六级CET-6考试复习资料四六级考前冲刺－综合篇综合部分在四六级考试中包括两部分,即完形填空或改错部分、翻译部分。

两部分分别占10%和5%的分值。

完形填空部分采用多项选择题型,改错部分的要求是辨认错误并改正。

翻译部分测试的是句子、短语及常用表达层次上的中译英能力。

虽然这些分值所占比例并不大,但也是及格与否或高分与否的关键所在。

综合部分考查的首先是考生的词汇量和对其用法的熟悉程度。

在最后四周内,对许多考生来说只要强化背诵四六级高频词汇和固定搭配的阅读,就能在这个版块的得分上向前迈进一大步。

如何在这四周的时间里合理安排时间和复习顺序,最有效地背单词、掌握关键的句型结构呢？在这里昂立四六级命题中心的老师为您制定了一套合理科学的复习计划。

准备项目：本周建议您回顾一遍所有的新题型的真题综合部分,尤其是注意反复考查的单词、动词固定搭配和句型。

参加六级考试的同学可以做一下0612综合部分的改错题型,总结一下技巧。

因为现在改错不常考,所以在最后阶段复习这种题型既能依靠前面积累的词汇语法基础提高做题正确率,又能在考前熟悉考题技巧。

难点重点：六级的完型填空这种题型并不常考,事实上在新六级的推广中只考了0612一次。

全文篇幅在200词左右,有十处横线,但凡出现横线的这样必定有错误、反之则没有。

我们建议考生在处理此类题目时首先要把握首句、了解文章的话题。

接着通读全文,掌握上下文的逻辑关系。

在做题时请大家注意,每一种错误类型只会出现一次。

漏述、赘述加起来一般不会超过三次。

准备内容：这里给大家总结一下完型中常见的几大错误。

名词单复数、固定搭配、介词、正反义词、词性、上下文逻辑、并列结构。

时间安排：这类题目并不建议大家多做,能把0612考过的做完就可以了。

四六级考前冲刺－写作篇据我们科学估计,在最后四周内,只要有针对的进行安排时间,对许多考生来说写作仍有至少20分的提升空间。

使用那些材料才能有效的最大限度地拿分呢？在这里昂立四六级命题中心的老师为您支招,帮助您安排合理科学的复习计划。

四六级分数是怎么计算的(大学英语四、六级考试分数解释)

大学英语四、六级考试分数解释2013年03月15日来源：全国大学英语四、六级考试委员会大学英语四、六级考试（CET）分为四级（CET-4）和六级（CET-6）两个级别。

大学英语四、六级考试的设计参照了《大学英语课程教学要求》（以下简称教学要求）。

四级参照《教学要求》中规定的“一般要求”；六级参照《教学要求》中规定的“较高要求”。

大学英语四、六级考试的分数报道采用常模参照方式，不设及格线。

四级考试的常模群体选自全国16所高校的约三万名非英语专业的考生；六级常模群体选自全国五所重点大学的约五千名非英语专业的考生。

每次考试等值后的卷面分数都参照常模转换为报道分。

四、六级考试报道总分为710分，计算公式为：公式中TotSco表示总分，X表示每位考生常模转换前的原始总分，Mean表示常模均值，SD表示常模标准差。

每次四级考试等值后的卷面分数都将参照此常模公式转换为报道分数。

四、六级考试单项成绩有四个部分，这四个部分以及所占的分值比例为：听力占35%，阅读占35%，综合占10%，作文占20%。

各单项报道分的满分为：听力249分，阅读249分，综合70分，作文142分。

各单项报道分之和等于报道总分。

每位考生的报道分在常模群体中都有一个相应的百分位位置。

下面的表1和表2是大学英语四、六级考试报道分数常模百分位对照表。

举例说明表1的使用方法如下（表2的使用方法和表1相同）。

例1：某考生四级报道总分是450分，从表1可以查到其在常模群体中的相应百分位是25%，表示这名考生的英语成绩优于常模群体中25%的人，但劣于75%的人。

例2：某考生四级报道总分是500分，从表1可以查到其在常模群体中的相应百分位在44%～55%之间，表示这名考生的英语成绩至少优于常模群体中44%的人，但不会优于55%的人。

例3：某考生四级报道的听力单项分是140分，从表1可以查到其在常模群体中的相应百分位在12%，表示这名考生的听力成绩优于常模群体中12%的人。

Your essay should include the importance of innovation and measures to be taken to encourageinnovation.You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参考范文】It is universally acknowledged that innovation refers to being creative, unique and different. In fact, today it is impossibly difficult for us to image a 21st century without innovation.We should place a high value on innovation firstly because innovative spirit can enable an individual to ameliorate himself, so he can be equipped with capacity to see what others cannot see, be qualified for future career promotion, and be ready for meeting the ing challenges. What’s more, we ought to attach importance to the role played by innovation in economic advancement. Put it another way, in this ever-changing world, innovation to economic growth is what water is to fish. To sum up, if innovation misses our attention in any possible way, we will suffer a great loss beyond imagination.In order to encourage innovation, it is wise for us to take some feasible measures. For example, mass media should greatly publicize the significance of creative spirit and encourage the public to cultivate awareness of innovation. Besides, those who manage to innovate should be awarded generous prize. Though there is a long way ahead to go, I am firmly certain that the shared efforts will be paid off.【参考译文】众所周知创新意味着有创造力，独一无二和不同。

you should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on theawer sheet with a single line through the centre.passage onequestio 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.there are good reaso to be troubled by the violence that spreads throughout the media.movies. television and video games are full of gunplay and bloodshed, and one might reasonablyask what’s wrong with a society that presents videos of domestic violence as entertainment. mostresearche agree that the causes of real-world violence are complex. a 1993 study by the u.s.national academy of sciences listed “biological, individual, family, peer, school, and communityfacto” as all playing their parts.viewing abnormally large amounts of violent television and video games may well contributeto violent behavior in certain individuals.the trouble comes when researche downplay uncertainties in their studies or ovetate thecase for causality (因果关系). skeptics were dismayed several yea ago when a group ofsocieties including theamerican medical association tried to end the debate by issuing a joint statement: “at thistime, well over 1,000 studies… point overwhelm ingly to a causal connection between mediaviolence and aggressive behavior in some children.”freedom-of-speech advocates accused the societies of catering to politicia, and evendisputed the number of studies (most were review articles and essays, they said). when jonathanfreedman, a social psychologist at the univeity of toronto, reviewed the literature, he foundonly 200 or so studies of television-watching and aggression. and when he weeded out “the mostdoubtful measures of aggression”, only 28% supp orted a connection.the critical point here is causality. the alarmists say they have proved that violent mediacause aggression. but the assumptio behind their observatio need to be examined. whenlabeling games as violent or non-violent, should a hero eating a ghost really be counted as aviolent event? and when experimente record the time it takes game playe to read ‘aggressive’or ‘non-aggressive’ words from a list, can we be sure what they are actually measuring? the intentof the new harvard center on media and child health to collect and standardize studies of mediaviolence in order to compare their methodologies, assumptio and conclusio is an important [page]step in the right direction.another appropriate ster would be to tone down the criticism until we know more. severalresearche write, speak and testify quite a lot on the threat posed by violence in the media. that is,of coue, their privilege. but when doing so, they often come out with statements that the matterhas now been settled, drawing criticism from colleagues. in respoe, the alarmists accuse criticsand news reporte of being deceived by the entertainment industry. such clashes help neitherscience nor society.21. why is there so much violence shown in movies, tv and video games?a) there is a lot of violence in the real world today.b) something has gone wrong with today’s society.c) many people are fond of gunplay and bloodshed.d) showing violence is thought to be entertaining.22. what is the skeptics (line 3. para.3) view of media violence?a) violence on television is a fairly accurate reflection of real-world life.b) most studies exaggerate the effect of media violence on the viewe.c) a causal relatiohip exists between media and real-world violence.d) the influence of media violence on children has been underestimated.23. the author uses the term “alarmists” (line 1. para.5) to refer to those who ______.a) use standardized measurements in the studies of media violenceb) initiated the debate over the influence of violent media on realityc) assert a direct link between violent media and aggressive behaviord) use appropriate methodology in examining aggressive behavior24. in refuting the alarmists, the author advances his argument by fit challenging____.a) the source and amount of their datab) the targets

certain age-in some cases as low as 55-isautomatically entitled to a dazzling array of price reductio at nearly every level of commerciallife. eligibility is determined not by one’s need but by the date on one’s birth certificate.practically unheard of a generation ago, the discounts have become a routine part of manybusinesses-as common as color televisio in motel rooms and free coffee on airline.people with gray hair often are given the discounts without even asking for them；yet，millio of america above age 60 are healthy and solvent (有支付能力的). businesses thatwould never dare offer discounts to college students or anyone under 30 freely offer them to olderamerica. the practice is acceptable because of the widespread belief that “elderly” and “needy”are synonymous (同义的).perhaps that once was true, but today elderly america as a group have a lower poverty ratethan the rest of the population. to be sure, there is economic diveity within the elderly, and manyolder america are poor, but most of them aren’t. it is impossible to determine the impact of thediscounts on individual companies. for many firms, they are a stimulus to revenue. but in othercases the discounts are given at the expee.directly or indirectly, of younger america. moreover, they are a direct irritant in whatsome politicia and schola see as a coming conflict between the generatio.generational teio are being fueled by continuing debate over social security benefits，[page]which mostly involves a trafer of resources from the young to the old. employment is anothersore point, buoyed (支持) by laws and court decisio, more and more older america aredeclining the retirement dinner in favor of staying on the job-thereby lessening employment andpromotion opportunities for younger worke.far from a kind of charity they once were, senior citizen discounts have become a formidableeconomic privilege to a group with millio of membe who don’t need them.it no longer makes see to treat the elderly as a single group whose economic needs deservepriority over those of othe. senior citizen discounts only enhance the myth that older peoplecan’t take care of themselves and need special treatment； and they threaten the creation of a newmyth, that the elderly are ungrateful and taking for themselves at the expee of children and otherage groups. senior citizen discounts are the essence of the very thing older america are fightingagait-discrimination by age.31. we learn from the fit paragraph that____.a) offering senior citize discounts has become routine commercial practiceb) senior citizen discounts

morris marable, was sold on an auction block in georgia for＄500. for his white slave master, the sale was just “business as usual.” but to morris marableand his hei, slavery was a crime agait our humanity. this pattern of human rights violatioagait elaved african-america continued under racial segregation for nearly another century.the fundamental problem of american democracy in the 21st century is the problem of “structuralracism” the deep patter of socio-economic inequality and accumulated disadvantage that arecoded by race, and cotantly justified in public speeches by both racist stereotypes and whiteindifference. do america have the capacity and vision to remove these structural barrie thatdeny democratic rights and opportunities to millio of their fellowcitize?this country has previously witnessed two great struggles to achieve a truly multiculturaldemocracy.the fit recotruction (1865-1877) ended slavery and briefly gave black men voting rights,but gave no meaningful

disadvantage thatremain central to black america’ lives.the disproportionate wealth that most whites enjoy today was fit cotructed fromcenturies of unpaid black labor. many white ititutio, including some leading univeities,iurance companies and banks, profited from slavery. this pattern of white privilege and blackinequality continues today.demanding reparatio (赔偿) is not just about compeation for slavery and segregation. itis, more important, an educational campaign to highlight the contemporary reality of “racialdeficits” of all kinds, the unequal conditio that impact blacks regardless of class. structuralracism’s barrie include “equity inequity.” the absence of black capital formation that is a directcoequence of america’s history. one third of all black households actually have

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and markthe corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecentre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.For years, doctors advised their patients that the only thing taking multivitamins does is give them extensive urine (尿). After all, true vitamin deficiencies are practicallyunheard of in industrialized countries. Now it seems those doctors may have been wrong. The results of a growing number of studies suggest that even a modest vitamin shortfall can be harmful to your health. Although proof of the benefits of multivitamins is still far from certain, the few dollars you spend on them is probably a good investment.Or at least that’s the argument put forward in the New England Journal of Medicine. Ideally, say Dr. Walter Willett and Dr. Meir Stampfer of Harvard, all vitamin supplements would be evaluated in scientifically rigorous clinical trials.But those studies can take a long time and often raise more questions than they answer. At some point, while researchers work on figuring out where the truth lies, it just makes sense to say the potential benefit outweighs the cost.The best evidence to date concerns folate, one of the B vitamins. It’s been proved to limit the number of defects in embryos (胚胎), and a recent trial found that folate in combination with vitamin B 12 and a form of B6 also decreases the re-blockage of arteries after surgical repair.The news on vitamin E has been more mixed. Healthy folks who take 400 international units daily for at least two years appear somewhat less likely to develop heart disease. But when doctors give vitamin E to patients who already have he art disease, the vitamin doesn’t seem to help. It may turn out that vitamin E plays a role in prevention but cannot undo serious damage.Despite vitamin C’s great popularity, consuming large amounts of it still has not been positively linked to any great benefit. The body quickly becomes saturated with Cand simply excretes (排泄) any excess.The multivitamins question boils down to this: Do you need to wait until all the evidence is in before you take them, or are you willing to accept that there’s enough evidence that they don’t hurt and could help?If the latter, there’s no need to go to extremes and buy the biggest horse pills or the most expensive bottles. Large doses can cause trouble, including excessive bleeding and nervous system problems.Multivitamins are no substitute for exercise and a balanced diet, of course.As long as you understand that any potential benefit is modest and subject to further refinement, taking a daily multivitamin makes a lot of sense.21. At one time doctors discouraged taking multivitamins because they believed thatmultivitamins ________.A) could not easily be absorbed by the human bodyB) were potentially harmful to people’s healthC) were too expensive for daily consumptionD) could not provide any cure for vitamin deficiencies22. According to the author, clinical trials of vitamin supplements ________.A) often result in misleading conclusionsB) take time and will not produce conclusive resultsC) should be conducted by scientists on a larger scaleD) appear to be a sheer waste of time and resources23. It has been found that vitamin E ________.A) should be taken by patients regularly and persistentlyB) can effectively reduce the recurrence of heart diseaseC) has a preventive but not curative effect on heart diseaseD) should be given to patients with heart disease as early as possible24. It can be seen that large doses of multivitamins ________.A) may bring about serious side effectsB) may help prevent excessive bleedingC) are likely to induce the blockage of arteriesD) are advisable for those with vitamin deficiencies25. The author concludes the passage with the advice that ________.A) the benefit of daily multivitamin intake outweighs that of exercise and abalanced dietB) it’s risky to take multivitamins without knowing their specific functionC) the potential benefit of multivitamins can never be overestimatedD) it’s reasonable to take a rational dose of multivitamins dailyPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Some futurologists have assumed that the vast upsurge (剧增) of women in the workforce may portend a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The converse (背面) of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriages. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to postpone marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy rebounds, the number of marriages also rises.Coincident with the increase in women working outside the home is the increase in divorce rates. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife’s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible. Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. Given high unemployment, inflationary problems, and slow growth in real earnings, a working wife can increase household income and relieve some of these pressing financial burdens. By raising a family’s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family’s financial and emotional stability.Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce.On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.Also, a major part of women’s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. With higher earning capacity and status occupations outside of the home comes the capacity to exercise power within the family. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities.26. The word “portend” (Line 2, Para. 1) is closest in meaning to “________”.A) defyB) signalC) suffer fromD) result from27. It is said in the passage that when the economy slides, ________.A) men would choose working women as their marriage partnersB) more women would get married to seek financial securityC) even working women would worry about their marriagesD) more people would prefer to remain single for the time being28. If women find fulfillment through work outside the home, ________.A) they are more likely to dominate their marriage partnersB) their husbands are expected to do more houseworkC) their marriage ties can be strengthenedD) they tend to put their career before marriage29. One reason why women with no career may seek a divorce is that ________.A) they feel that they have been robbed of their freedomB) they are afraid of being bossed around by their husbandsC) they feel that their partners fail to live up to their expectationsD) they tend to suspect their husbands’ loyalty to their marriage30. Which of the following statements can best summarize the author’s view in thepassage?A) The stability of marriage and the divorce rate may reflect the economic situationof the country.B) Even when economically independent, most women have to struggle for realequality in marriage.C) In order to secure their marriage women should work outside the home andremain independent.D) The impact of the growing female workforce on marriage varies from case tocase.Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.For most thinkers since the Greek philosophers, it was self-evident that the re is something called human nature, something that constitutes the essence of man. There were various views about what constitutes it, but there was agreement that such an essence exists—that is to say, that there is something by virtue of which man is man. Thus man was defined as a rational being, as a social animal, an animal that can make tools, or a symbol-making animal.More recently, this traditional view has begun to be questioned. One reason for this change was the increasing emphasis given to the historical approach to man. An examination of the history of humanity suggested that man in our epoch is so different from man in previous times that it seemed unrealistic to assume that men in every age have had in common something that can be called “human nature.” The historical approach was reinforced, particularly in the United States, by studies in the field of cultural anthropology (人类学). The study of primitive peoples has discovered such a diversity of customs, values, feelings, and thoughts that many anthropologists arrived atthe concept that man is born as a blank sheet of paper on which each culture writes its text. Another factor contributing to the tendency to deny the assumption of a fixed human nature was that the concept has so often been abused as a shield behind which the most inhuman acts are committed. In the name of human nature, for example, Aristotle and most thinkers up to the eighteenth century defended slavery. Or in order to prove the rationality and necessity of the capitalist form of society, scholars have tried to make a case for acquisitiveness, competitiveness, and selfishness as innate(天生旳) human traits. Popularly, one refers cynically to “human nature” in accepting the inevitability of such undesirable human behavior as greed, murder, cheating and lying.Another reason for skepticism about the concept of human nature probably lies in the influence of evolutionary thinking. Once man came to be seen as developing in the process of evolution, the idea of a substance which is contained in his essence seemed untenable. Yet I believe it is precisely from an evolutionary standpoint that we can expect new insight into the problem of the nature of man.31. The traditional view of “human nature” was strongly challenged by ________.A) the emergence of the evolutionary theoryB) the historical approach to manC) new insight into human behaviorD) the philosophical analysis of slavery32. According to the passage, anthropologists believe that human beings ________.A) have some traits in commonB) are born with diverse culturesC) are born without a fixed natureD) change their characters as they grow up33. The author mentioned Aristotle, a great ancient thinker, in order to ________.A) emphasize that he contributed a lot to defining the concept of “human nature”B) show that the concept of “human nature” was used to justify social evilsC) prove that he had a profound influence on the concept of “human nature”D) support the idea that some human traits are acquired34. The word “untenable” (Line 3) in the last paragraph of the passage most probablymeans ________.A) invaluableB) imaginableC) changeableD) indefensible35. Most philosophers believed that human nature ________.A) is the quality distinguishing man from other animalsB) consists of competitiveness and selfishnessC) is something partly innate and partly acquiredD) consists of rationality and undesirable behaviorPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Richard Satava, program manager for advanced medical technologies, has been a driving force in bring ing virtual reality to medicine, where computers create a “virtual” or simulated environment for surgeons and other medical practitioners (从业者).“With virtual reality we’ll be able to put a surgeon in every trench,” said Satava. He envisaged a time when soldiers who are wounded fighting overseas are put in mobile surgical units equipped with computers.The computers would transmit images of the soldiers to surgeons back in the U.S. The surgeons would look at the soldier through virtual reality helmets (头盔) that contain a small screen displaying the image of the wound. The doctors would guide robotic instruments in the battlefield mobile surgical unit that operate on the soldier.Although Satava’s vision may be years away from standard operating procedure, scientists are progressing toward virtual reality surgery. Engineers at an international organization in California are developing a tele-operating device. As surgeons watch a three-dimensional image of the surgery, they move instruments that are connected to a computer, which passes their movements to robotic instruments that perform the surgery. The computer provides feedback to the surgeon on force, textures, and sound.These technological wonders may not yet be part of the community hospital setting but increasingly some of the machinery is finding its way into civilian medicine. At Wayne State University Medical School, surgeon Lucia Zamorano takes images of the brain from computerized scans and uses a computer program to produce a 3-D image. She can then maneuver the 3-D image on the computer screen to map the shortest, least invasive surgical path to the tumor (肿瘤). Zamorano is also using technology that attaches a probe to surgical instruments so that she can track their positions. While cutting away a tumor deep in the brain, she watches the movement of her surgical tools in a computer graphics image of the patient’s brain taken before surgery.During these procedures—operations that are done through small cuts in the body in which a miniature camera and surgical tools are maneuvered—surgeons are wearing 3-D glasses for a better view. And they are commanding robot surgeons to cut away tissue more accurately than human surgeons can.Satava says, “We are in the midst of a fundamental change in the field of medicine.”36. According to Richard Satava, the application of virtual reality to medicine________.A) will enable surgeons to be physically present on every battlefieldB) can raise the spirits of soldiers wounded on the battlefieldC) will greatly improve medical conditions on the battlefieldD) can shorten the time for operations on soldiers wounded on the battlefield37. Richard Satava has visions of ________.A) using a remote-control technique to treat wounded soldiers fighting overseasB) wounded soldiers being saved by doctors wearing virtual reality helmets on thebattlefieldC) wounded soldiers being operated on by specially trained surgeonsD) setting up mobile surgical units overseas38. How is virtual reality surgery performed?A) It is performed by a computer-designed high precision device.B) Surgeons wear virtual reality helmets to receive feedback provided by acomputer.C) Surgeons move robotic instruments by means of a computer linked to them.D) A 3-D image records the movements of the surgeons during the operation.39. During virtual reality operations, the surgeon can have a better view of the cuts inthe body because ________.A) he is looking at the cuts on a computer screenB) the cuts can be examined from different anglesC) the cuts have been highly magnifiedD) he is wearing 3-D glasses40. Virtual reality operations are an improvement on conventional surgery in that they________.A) cause less pain to the woundedB) allow the patient to recover more quicklyC) will make human surgeons’ work less tediousD) are done by robot surgeons with greater precisionPart III Vocabulary (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

cet6英语解释

cet6英语解释The College English Test 6, commonly known as CET6, is a national English proficiency examination administered in China. It is one of the most widely recognized and influential English tests in the country, serving as a crucial benchmark for assessing the English language abilities of college students. The CET6 exam is designed to evaluate the comprehensive English skills of test-takers, including their listening, reading, writing, and translation capabilities.The CET6 exam was first introduced in 1987 and has since become a crucial component of the Chinese higher education system. It is administered twice a year, typically in June and December, and is mandatory for all undergraduate students in China. The exam is divided into two parts: a written test and an oral test. The written test consists of four sections: listening comprehension, reading comprehension, cloze (fill-in-the-blank), and writing. The oral test, on the other hand, assesses the test-takers' ability to communicate in English through a series of interactive tasks.One of the primary reasons for the CET6's significance is its role indetermining the future prospects of Chinese college students. A high score on the CET6 exam can open doors to numerous opportunities, including job prospects, graduate school admissions, and even the ability to study abroad. Many employers in China view a strong CET6 performance as an indicator of a candidate's English proficiency, making it a valuable asset in the job market.Furthermore, the CET6 exam is closely linked to the academic success of college students in China. A passing score on the CET6 is often a requirement for graduation, and some universities even tie students' CET6 performance to their overall academic standing. This has led to a strong emphasis on English language learning among Chinese college students, who often devote substantial time and effort to preparing for the exam.The CET6 exam is designed to assess a wide range of English language skills, including vocabulary, grammar, reading comprehension, listening comprehension, and written expression. The exam questions are carefully crafted to challenge test-takers and evaluate their ability to understand and communicate in English effectively.One of the unique aspects of the CET6 exam is its focus on practical, real-world English usage. The test questions often reflect the types of situations and scenarios that test-takers might encounter in theiracademic or professional lives, such as understanding academic lectures, interpreting technical documents, or composing business emails. This approach helps to ensure that the CET6 exam measures the test-takers' ability to apply their English skills in practical, meaningful contexts.Preparing for the CET6 exam can be a daunting task, as it requires a comprehensive understanding of the English language and extensive practice in various test-taking skills. Many Chinese college students devote significant time and resources to preparing for the exam, often enrolling in specialized CET6 preparation courses or seeking the guidance of experienced tutors.Despite the challenges, the CET6 exam has played a crucial role in promoting English language education in China. The exam has helped to raise the overall standard of English proficiency among Chinese college students, leading to improved communication and collaboration in academic and professional settings.Moreover, the CET6 exam has also had a significant impact on the broader English language education landscape in China. The exam has influenced the curriculum and teaching methods used in Chinese universities, with a greater emphasis on practical English skills and communicative competence.In conclusion, the CET6 exam is a vital component of the Chinese higher education system, serving as a benchmark for assessing the English language abilities of college students. Its importance extends beyond the academic realm, as a strong CET6 performance can open up numerous opportunities for students in the job market and beyond. As China continues to play an increasingly prominent role on the global stage, the CET6 exam will likely remain a crucial tool for developing the English language skills of the country's future leaders and professionals.。

Part I Writing (30 minutes) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay titled “Are people becoming addicted to technology?”. The statement given below is for your reference. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Numerous studies claim that addiction to technology is real and it has the same effect on the brain as drug addition. 【参考范⽂】 Are people becoming addicted to technology? With technology advancing daily, there has been an increase in the number of people who become addicted to technological inventions, such as computers and cellphones. From my point of view, this trend can harmfully influence individuals in many ways. The negative consequences of technology addiction can be illustrated from two aspects. For one thing, being indulged in technological gadgets is detrimental to students’ academic performance. For example, many university students stay up all night to play video games and thus feel drowsy and distracted in class. In addition, many psychological researchers found that the excessive use of technological devices can have an adverse effect on individuals’ mental well-being and interpersonal relationship. For instance, modern people, especially youngsters, are reluctant to interact face to face with their friends and families because of the indulgence in online social media platforms or computer games. In conclusion, it is of utmost importance to take actions to counteract the negative effects mentioned above. Perhaps the first step is that students should be educated to use technological devices in a rational way. 【解析】本次四级作⽂考查的是现象影响类的论说⽂。

cet6英语试卷

cet6英语试卷In the realm of language proficiency, the Certificate of English Test 6 (CET-6) stands as a significant milestone for non-native English speakers, particularly in China. It is a testament to one's ability to effectively communicate in English at an advanced level, which is essential in the globalized world we live in today. The test assesses a wide range of skills, including listening, reading, writing, and translation, challenging test-takers to demonstrate their comprehensive command of the language.The listening section of the CET-6 is designed to evaluate the ability to understand spoken English in various contexts. Test-takers are required to listen to conversations, lectures, and discussions on a variety of topics, ranging from academic subjects to everyday situations.

The challenge lies not only in understanding the literal meaning but also in interpreting the implied messages, analyzing the structure, and evaluating the content critically.Writing is perhaps the most daunting part of the CET-6 for many. It demands not only a strong vocabulary and a firm grasp of grammar but also the ability to organize thoughts coherently and express them clearly. The writing tasks often involve composing essays that require a logical flow of ideas, supported by relevant examples and a clear stance on the given topic.Translation, both from Chinese to English and vice versa, tests the ability to convey meaning accurately between languages. It is not merely a word-for-word substitution but requires an understanding of idiomatic expressions, cultural nuances, and stylistic preferences.To excel in the CET-6, one must immerse oneself in the language. This involves extensive reading, active listening, consistent practice in writing, and engaging in conversations with native speakers. It is a journey that not only enhances language proficiency but also broadens one's intellectual horizons and cultural understanding.In conclusion, the CET-6 is more than just a test; it is a gateway to opportunities in education and career advancement. It signifies a level of English proficiency that enables individuals to navigate the global landscape confidently.

population,passenger pigeons were 27to human intrusion into their nesting territory.Their nests were shabby things and two weeks after the eggs 28,the parent pigeons would abandon their

agree:Coding should be added to curriculums,but not at the expense of foreign language classes.C)The idea is that computer programming is a language,allowing people to communicate with machines and programs.It’s the language of the 21st century and more valuable than a natural language,some advocates argue.The computer science field is growing faster than schools can keep up because of budget constraints and a lack of skills training for teachers.D)According to the 2016U.S.News/Raytheon STEM Index,computer science jobs have helped boost wages in the U.S.,and computer-related jobs hold the top seven positions in STEM fields for highest number of workers.Foreign language interest,on the other hand,is declining for the first time since 1995.The number of higher education language enrollments declined between 2009and 2013by more than 111,000spots,according to the Modern Language Association of America.E)“I think the opportunity to give people a choice is important,”says Florida state Senator Jeremy Ring,who introduced a bill last year that would allow Florida students to choose between foreign language and coding classes for the purpose of university admissions requirements.“I think if you’re going to give two years of language in high school,you might as well do computer coding.”F)The Florida bill died this year after passing 35:5in the state Senate when the full Legislature failed to take action.It would have been the first state to try this initiative.Ring says that although he will be out of office,an identical bill will be reintroduced within the next year by others on his behalf.“In the speech I gave on the·2022年9月六级真题(第一套)·4I)hatched J)expired K)excerpts L)estimates M)edible N)depleted O)delicacySenate floor,I said,‘We can be the first state to do this,or we can be the50th state to do it.It’s our choice.It’s going to happen,’”Ring says.G)A Kentucky bill similar to the one in Florida was met with complaints from educators,and was then amendedto promote computer science education initiatives with no mention of foreign language requirements.Instead, the state will provide support for higher quality certified teachers for programming classes.Under the Washington bill,public universities would accept two years of computer science classes in place of two years of foreign language for admission purposes.A report detailing the opinions of state university officials is due to the Legislature by November2017.H)Texas passed a bill in2013that allows students to substitute computer coding only after they have attemptedand performed poorly in a foreign language class.Srini Mandyam,CTO and co-founder of kid-friendly instructional coding company Tynker,believes allowing students to forgo foreign language because they struggle with it is unproductive because every subject,whether art,math or language,is a significant contribution to a well-rounded existence.“Many students don’t fare well with algebra but we never discuss eliminating it or…say chemistry is now counted as an algebra class,”he said via email.“We teach algebra because it’s important and we should teach foreign language and coding for the same reason.Exposure toa wide breadth of subjects and material results in well-rounded students who are able to make informeddecisions…about what they want to pursue.”I)Computer science courses already fulfill a math or science high school graduation requirement in28statesand the District of Columbia,up from only12states in2013.And while advocates of the bills say they should count as foreign language instead,opponents stress the importance of balancing computer and foreign language skills.J)Studies show that bilingualism(双语)correlates with cognitive development,intelligence,memory and problem solving abilities,according to the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.A2007study showed that foreign language students outperformed their non-foreign language peers on standardized tests after only two to three years of study.And while a2014report from German and American universities suggests that programmers are using language(but not mathematical)regions of the brain when understanding code,critics remain wary.They say that regardless of cognitive functions,being monolingual is a disadvantage in the increasingly international economy,even if English has become the de facto(事实上的)language of business.K)“Our world is shrinking but its problems are really growing,”says ACTFL National Language Teacher of the Year Ted Zarrow,who teaches high school Latin in Westwood,Massachusetts,and has also studied Spanish, French,German,Italian and Greek.“We need to find a way to put ourselves at the global table and to treat each other with mutual respect.And learning languages allows us to do that because language is not part of culture,language is culture.”L)Even with the benefits and skill sets languages provide,recruiters and employers value computer skills more.According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers’2016report,study abroad and foreign language fluency were not very influential in the employee hiring processes,but55percent of employers looked for computer skills on applicants’resumes.However,although2016computer science graduates can expect to make the second highest starting salary compared with other jobs this year,the Bureau of Labor predicts the demand for computer programmers will decrease8percent or by26,500jobs by2024.M)Ring says foreign language skills are important,but expresses doubt that school districts could work both coding and language into their curriculum in a significant way because they lack the time in the school day.5·2022年9月六级真题(第一套)·“Nothing against language,”he says.“I just think it’s something you have to start early and not just have something that you do for a couple years in high school,”he says.N)Zarrow agrees that foreign language education should begin earlier,but says it is possible to work both computer programming and foreign language learning into schools evenly.He suggests an immersive,dual language program where students spend half the day in English and half the day in another language,as several schools around the country have successfully implemented.“The study of language fosters a respect for diversity,a respect for ethnicity and really a respect for language,”Zarrow says.O)Though the benefits of computer programming skills are vast,foreign language and coding experts agree that computer science should be negotiated into curriculums rather than replacing foreign language outright. Mandyam says the two skill sets are essential but unrelated.“Coding is an incredibly important21st century skill for our kids to learn,and that’s why we spend so much time trying to teach it,”Mandyam says via email.“But I believe it is the same as or even really comparable to learning a foreign language.It would be a shame to lose something so important for the sake of adding something else,even something as important as coding. Clearly,education leaders must figure out a way to teach both.”36.Employers attach more importance to applicants’computer skills than their language competence.37.One U.S.state senator proposed that high school students be allowed to study either foreign language orcomputer coding.38.Learning languages broadens students’international perspective and nurtures mutual respect among peoples,according to a high school language teacher.39.One U.S.state will see to it that programming classes are taught by quality teachers.40.Statistics show while computer-related jobs have been on the rise,foreign languages have become lessappealing to American students since mid-1990s.41.All school subjects are said to be essential to students’well-rounded development.42.There is consensus among most educators that coding should be taught in schools but should not replaceforeign language.43.One study showed that foreign language learning improved students’academic performance.44.Being short of funding and qualified teachers,schools lag behind the fast developing computer sciencefield.45.A distinguished high school language teacher also believes it is advisable to start learning a foreign languageat an earlier age.Section CDirections:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2with a single line through the centre. Passage OneQuestions46to50are based on the following passage.The U.S.and China don’t agree on much these days.Germany and France share a border and a currency but are frequently at odds.The U.K.and India like to march to their own drum.But there’s one issue on which all these countries see eye to eye:Technology companies are too big,too powerful,and too profitable.And that ·2022年9月六级真题(第一套)·6power is only likely to intensify,leaving governments with no choice but to confront it head-on by taking the companies to court,passing new competition laws,and perhaps even breaking up the tech giants.China is the latest to implement an anti-trust crackdown,unveiling anti-monopoly rules last month.The draft rules followed the surprise suspension of a$37billion stock offering by billionaire Jack Ma’s Ant Group Co.,making clear that no company can evade the government’s regulation.The moves in China coincide with accelerating efforts in the U.S.and Europe to rein in Amazon, Apple,Facebook,and Google.“The big get bigger and bigger but without being better,”says Andreas Schwab,a German member of the European Parliament who championed a2014resolution to break up Google.“Growing economic power, growing influence on local markets all over the world,and a growing concern of competitors and consumers altogether have made it happen now.”In this new anti-trust era,the old focus on pricing power no longer applies,because several of the biggest tech companies have established trillion-dollar monopolies by charging consumers next to nothing.Tech giants are increasingly assuming powerful positions in banking,finance,advertising,retail,and other markets that force smaller businesses to rely on their platforms to reach customers.For years,Europe alone confronted the power of digital ernments were alarmed that European companies were failing to match Silicon Valley’s innovations or to stop Google and Facebook from vacuuming up personal data and,with that,advertising revenue.Led by Margrethe Vestager,the European Union’s competition chief,countries have sought to police the market and encourage fair play.In China the crackdown has been driven at least partly by fear that the homegrown tech industry is becoming too powerful.The country has long championed Alibaba and Tencent,but their massive accumulation of data on the Chinese citizenry is a growing concern for Beijing.In the U.S.,a new breed of anti-trust experts argues that consideration should be given to privacy, control over data,workers’rights,and the overall impact on smaller companies.And the public in general have grown increasingly skeptical of social media companies.More than60%say the sector has a negative effect on the country,and almost half want more regulation for social media,according to a2020Pew Research Center study.46.What does the author say is the issue all major economic powers have to address?A)How to ensure the sustainable growth of their tech giants.B)How to keep the competitiveness of their tech companies.C)How to break up the powerful giant tech companies.D)How to stop tech companies from gaining monopoly.47.What does the suspension of Ant Group Co.’s stock offering suggest?A)All attempts to evade regulation are doomed to failure.B)All attempts to monopolize sales must be cracked down.C)All companies must be regulated by the government.D)All companies,domestic or foreign,are created equal.48.How are smaller companies impacted by tech giants’business expansion?A)They can no longer do business independent of tech giants.B)They are frequently denied access to tech giants’platforms.C)They have to change marketing strategies to keep customers.D)They no longer have the power to price their own products.7·2022年9月六级真题(第一套)·49.What have EU countries done to confront the power of digital giants?A)They have imposed strict regulation over digital giants’advertising.B)They have considered regulatory action to promote fair competition.C)They have limited sales of digital giants’products.D)They have sought to protect consumers’privacy.50.What do Americans generally think of social media companies according to the author?A)They are invading people’s privacy.C)They are becoming untrustworthy.B)They are increasingly influential.D)They are growing out of control.Passage TwoQuestions51to55are based on the following passage.Born from the accessibility of mass air travel,modern international tourism has been popularized as “holiday-making”in regions that offer comparative advantages of sand,sun and sea.Travel is often portrayed as a tool for personal growth and tourism as an economic motor for destination countries and cities.There is a tendency to assume that tourism is good for everyone involved.Today the big bang of tourism drives over1.2billion tourists across international borders annually.Many popular places are literally being loved to death.Recent protests in ports of call like Venice and Barcelona against disturbances created by cruise ships show the unfortunate consequences of emphasizing quantity over quality in tourism.Uncontrolled tourism development has become a primary driver of social and environmental disruption. Tourism studies provide much documentation of the many negative social impacts of tourism and resulting resentment that local populations direct toward visitors.Antagonism toward tourists typically develops in mature,heavily visited destinations.Protests in heavily visited destinations suggest that traditional tourism has overstayed its welcome.Residents often become frustrated when the benefits of tourism are not felt locally.Although it can generate foreign exchange,income and employment,there’s no guarantee that multinational hotel chains will allocate these benefits equitably among local communities.On the contrary,when people stay at large resorts or on cruise ships,they make most of their purchases there,leaving local communities little opportunity to benefit from tourist spending.These forms of tourism widen economic and political gaps between haves and have-nots at local destinations.In recent decades,local residents in destination communities also have found themselves negotiating new cultural boundaries,class dynamics,service industry roles and lifestyle transformations.For example,data show that tourism activity corresponds to increased social problems as local residents adopt the behaviors of tourists.What does all this mean for the everyday traveler?First,all tourists should make every effort to honor their hosts and respect local conditions.This means being prepared to adapt to local customs and norms,rather than expecting local conditions to adapt to travelers.Second,tourism is a market-based activity and works best when consumers reward better performers.In the information age,there’s little excuse for travelers being uninformed about where their vacation money goes and who it enriches.Informed travelers also are better able to distinguish between multinational companies and local entrepreneurs whose businesses provide direct social,environmental,and economic benefits for local residents. Such businesses are in love with the destination and are therefore deserving of market reward.In the long run,·2022年9月六级真题(第一套)·8being a responsible traveler means ensuring net positive impacts for local people and environments.With the information available at our fingertips,there has never been more opportunity to do so.51.What is the popular assumption about international tourism?A)Its benefits may compensate for the adverse environmental consequences.B)Its rapid development is attributed to people’s improved living standard.C)It appeals to people in places with favorable geographical conditions.D)It contributes to the economy of destination countries and regions.52.What do we learn from some studies about uncontrolled tourism development?A)It gives rise to an increase in mass confrontations.C)It inhibits the steady growth of local economy.B)It incurs local residents’antagonism to tourists.D)It brings in a large chunk of mobile population.53.Why does the author say local residents of popular destinations often feel frustrated?A)They fall victim to social conflicts and environmental disturbances.B)They have little opportunity to enjoy themselves on cruise ships.C)They cannot find employment in multinational hotel chains.D)They do not think they benefit as much as they deserve.54.How does the author say local residents in destination communities respond to tourism activity?A)They endeavor to adapt to it.C)They immerse tourists in their culture.B)They readily adopt new lifestyles.D)They try to upgrade their business models.55.What can tourists do to exert more positive impacts on the tourist destinations?A)Show interest in local customs and lifestyles.C)Use the services provided by local businesses.B)Seek possibilities to invest in local companies.D)Give favorable comments about their services.
