However, with the development of science and technology, the communication forms have becoming increasingly diversified, digitalized and public-oriented in the last decade。

The wide spread of internet access and the use of QQ, MSN, E-mail, blog, micro blog and some other emerging network communication platforms have exerted fundamental influence on interpersonal communication. These network platforms are capable of helping people get information more quickly and accurately, and they can also broaden people’s interpersonal circle. However, as everyone knows, everything has two sides. There are also negative points in these new types of interpersonal communication. For example, people may write blogs about their classmates or workmates around them, and these stories may be spread, thus influencing the relationships between people in reality. What’s more, if people spend too much time and effort on blog writing, they may have no chance and spirit to have face-to-face communications. Consequently, their ability to deal with people in life may decrease。

The United States has almost all of the world’s best universities.A recent Chinese survey ranks35American universities among the top50,eight among the top10.Our research universities have been the key to developing the competitive advantages that help Americans produce25%of all the world’s wealth.In2007,623,805of the world’s brightest students were attracted to American universities.Yet,there are signs of peril(危险)within American higher education.U.S. colleges have to compete in the marketplace.Students may choose among 6,000public,private,nonprofit,for profit,or religious institutions of higher learning.In addition,almost all of the532billion the federal government provides for university research is awarded competitively.But many colleges and universities are stuck in the past.For instance,the idea of the fall-to-spring“school year”hasn’t changed much since before the American Revolution,when we were a summer stretch no longer makes sense. Former George Washington University president Stephen Trachtenberg estimates that a typical college uses its facilities for academic purposes a little more than half the calendar year.“While college facilities sit idle,they continue to generate maintenance expenses that contribute to the high cost of running a college,”he has written.Within academic departments,tenure(终身职位)，combined withage-discrimination laws,makes faculty turnover—critical for a university to remain current in changing times—difficult.Instead of protecting speech and encouraging diversity and innovative thinking,the tenure system oftenstifles(压制)them:younger professors must win the approval of establishedcolleagues for tenure,encouraging like-mindedness and sometimes inhibiting the free flow of ideas.Meanwhile,tuition has soared,leaving graduating students with unprecedented loan debt.Strong campus presidents to manage these problems are becoming harder to find,and to keep.In fact,students now stay on campus almost as long as their presidents.The average amount of time students now take to complete an undergraduate degree has stretched to six years and seven months as students interrupted by work,inconvenienced by unavailable classes,or lured by one more football season find it hard to graduate.Congress has tried to help students with college costs through Pell Grants and other forms of tuition support.But some of their fixes have made the problem worse.The stack of congressional regulations governing federal student grants and loans now stands twice as tall as I do.Filling out these forms consumes7% of every tuition dollar.For all of these reasons,some colleges like Hartwick are rethinking the old way of doing things and questioning decades-old assumptions about what a college degree means.For instance,why does it have to take four years to earn a diploma?This fall,16first-year students and four second-year students at Hartwick enrolled in the school’s new three year degree program.According to the college,the plan is designed for high-ability,highly motivated student who wish to save money or to move along more rapidly toward advanced degrees.By eliminating that extra year,there year degree students save25%in costs. Instead of taking30credits a year,these students take40.During January, Hartwick runs a four week course during which students may earn three to four credits on or off campus,including a number of international sites.Summer courses are not required,but a student may enroll in them—and pay extra. Three year students get first crack at course registration.There are no changes in the number of courses professors teach or in their pay.The three-year degree isn’t a new idea.Geniuses have always breezed through. Judson College,a350-student institution in Alabama,has offered students a three-year option for40years.Students attend“short terms”in May and June to earn the credits required for graduation.Bates College in Maine and Ball State University in Indiana are among other colleges offering three-year options.Changes at the high-school level are also helping to make it easier for many students to earn their undergraduate degrees in less time.One of five students arrives at college today with Advanced Placement(AP)credits amounting to a semester or more of college level work.Many universities,including large schools like the University of Texas,make it easy for these AP students to graduate faster.For students who don’t plan to stop with an undergraduate degree,thethree-year plan may have an even greater appeal.Dr.John Sergent,head of Vanderbilt University Medical School’s residency(住院医生)program,enrolled in Vanderbilt’s undergraduate college in1959.He entered medical school after only three years as did four or five of his classmates.”My first year of medical school counted as my senior year,which meant I had to take three to four labs a week to get all my sciences in.I basically skipped my senior year,”says Sergent.He still had time to be a student senator and meet his wife.There are,however,drawbacks to moving through school at such a brisk pace. For one,it deprives students of the luxury of time to roam(遨游)intellectually. Compressing everything into three years also leaves less time for growing up, engaging in extracurricular activities,and studying abroad.On crowded campuses it could mean fewer opportunities to get into a prized professor’s class.Iowa’s Waldorf College has graduated several hundred students in its three-year degree program,but it now phasing out the option.Most Waldorf students wanted the full four-year experience—academically,socially,and athletically.And faculty members will be wary of any change that threatens the core curriculum in the name of moving students into the workforce.“Most high governmental officials seem to conceive of education in this light—as a way to ensure economic competitiveness and continued economic growth,”Derek Bok,former president of Harvard,told The Washington Post.“I strongly disagree with this approach.”Another risk:the new campus schedules might eventually produce less revenue for the institution and longer working hours for faculty members.Adopting a three-year option will not come easily to most school.Those that wish to tackle tradition and make American campus more cost-conscious may find it easier to take Trachtenberg’s advice:open campuses year-round.“You could run two complete colleges,with two complete faculties,”he says.“That’s without cutting the length of students’vacations,increasing class sizes,or requiring faculty to teach more.”Whether they experiment with three-year degrees,offer year-round classes, challenge the tenure system—or all of the above—universities are slowly realizing that to stay competitive and relevant they must adapt to a rapidly changing world.Expanding the three-year option may be difficult,but it may be less difficult than asking Congress for additional financial help,asking legislators for more state support,or asking students even higher tuition payments.Campuses willing to adopt convenient schedules along with more focused,less-expensive degrees may find that they have a competitive advantage in attracting bright, motivated students.These sorts of innovations can help American universities avoid the perils of success.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

2012年6月六级作文范文(新东方版本)2012年6月大学英语四六级考试已结束，以下为新东方作文范文仅供考生参考：写作范文 by 胡平As is shown in the picture, when a dad asks his daughter “how wasschool today?”， his daughter would rather tell her father to readall about it on her blog than inform him face to face. Thisphenomenon demonstrates that internet communication is changing thetraditional face to face communication.What is the impact of the internet on interpersonal communication?Initially, it prevents people from face to face communication. Forexample, some students would better send messages to theirclassmates to express themselves rather than talk to them directly.Furthermore, the internet communication is making people lose theirregular and necessary communication skill. Take my friend Jack asan example. He is popular online due to his insightfulthought andprominent writing skill. But in his daily life, he is so shy thathe cannot talk to others.Internet, from my perspective, does harm to our interpersonalcommunication. And we should place much emphasis on face to facecommunication。

2012年英语六级作文

2012年英语六级作文I remember the first time I took the English 6 exam. It was a nerve-wracking experience, to say the least. I had studied for months, but I still felt unprepared when the day arrived. The reading section was the most challenging for me, as the passages were long and the questions were tricky. I had to read quickly and carefully to make sure I didn't miss any important details.The writing section, on the other hand, was a bit easier for me. I had always been good at expressing my thoughts in writing, so I felt more confident in this part of the exam. I remember feeling relieved when I finished the last essay and knew that I had done my best.After the exam, I couldn't stop thinking about how I had performed. I kept going over the questions in my head, trying to remember if I had answered them correctly. It was a long wait for the results, and I was filled with anxiety during that time.When the results finally came, I was ecstatic to find out that I had passed. It was a huge relief, and I felt proud of myself for overcoming the challenge. It was a reminder that hard work and determination do pay off in the end.Looking back on that experience now, I realize how much it taught me about perseverance and resilience. It was a difficult test, but I didn't let it defeat me. I pushed through the nerves and uncertainty and came out on top. It was a valuable lesson that I carry with me to this day.In conclusion, taking the English 6 exam was a daunting but ultimately rewarding experience. It tested my skills and pushed me out of my comfort zone, but it also taught me important lessons about determination and self-belief. I am grateful for the experience, as it has made me a stronger and more confident person.。

Instead of answering directly, the daughter tells her father to read her blog. It is common that youngsters nowadays incline to communicate with others on internet increasingly, and lack communication with people around them. With the development of Internet, it has influenced our society to a large extent, especially interpersonal communication.To begin with, we can communicate with others anytime via internet. Otherwise, we would have to arrange our schedules strictly in advance. Also, interpersonal communication through the internet is not restricted by space. For example, in most multinational corporations, instant messages and video conferences help colleagues solve problems timely and efficiently. Last but not least, the internet can greatly speed up our interpersonal communication. Whereas, there are also disadvantages that the internet brings to us. More and more people complained that they have lost face-to-face communicating skills. As a result, people become more and more indifferent to each other in real life. Some netizens who are immersed in virtual world even have difficulty in making friends in reality.In conclusion, communication through the internet could bring us both convenience and inconvenience.

In addition, almost all of the 532 billion the federal government provides for university research is awarded competitively. But many colleges and universities are stuck in the past.

That’s both an opportunity and a warning for the besthigher-education system in the world.The United States has almost all of the world’s best universities. A recent Chinese survey ranks 35 American universities among the top 50, eight among the top 10. Our research universities have been the key to developing the competitive advantages that help Americans produce 25% of all the world’s wealth. In 2007, 623,805 of the world’s brightest students were attracted to American universities.Yet, there are signs of peril (危险)within American higher education. U.S. colleges have to compete in the marketplace. Students may choose among 6,000 public, private, nonprofit, for profit, or religious institutions of higher learning. In addition, almost all of the 532 billion the federal government provides for university research is awarded competitively.But many colleges and universities are stuck in the past. For instance, the idea of the fall-to-spring“school year”hasn’t changed much since before the American Revolution, when we were a summer stretch no longer makes sense. Former George Washington University president Stephen Trachtenberg estimates that a typical college uses its facilities for academic purposes a little more than half the calendar year.“While college facilities sit idle, they continue to generate maintenance expenses that contribute to the high cost of running a college,” he has written.Within academic departments, tenure(终身职位)，combined with age-discrimination laws, makes faculty turnover—critical for a university to remain current in changing times—difficult. Instead of protecting speech and encouraging diversity and innovative thinking, the tenure system often stifles(压制)them: younger professors must win the approval of established colleagues for tenure, encouraging like-mindedness and sometimes inhibiting the free flow of ideas.Meanwhile, tuition has soared, leaving graduating students with unprecedented loan debt. Strong campus presidents to manage these problems are becoming harder to find, and to keep. In fact, students now stay on campus almost as long as their presidents. The average amount of time students now take to complete an undergraduate degree has stretched to six years and seven months as students interrupted by work, inconvenienced by unavailable classes, or lured by one more football season find it hard to graduate.Congress has tried to help students with college costs through Pell Grants and other forms of tuition support. But some of their fixes have made the problem worse. The stackof congressional regulations governing federal student grants and loans now stands twice as tall as I do. Filling out these forms consumes 7% of every tuition dollar.For all of these reasons, some colleges like Hartwick are rethinking the old way of doing things and questioning decades-old assumptions about what a college degree means. For instance, why does it have to take four years to earn a diploma? This fall, 16 first-year students and four second-year students at Hartwick enrolled in the school’s new three year degree program. According to the college, the plan is designed for high-ability, highly motivated student who wish to save money or to move along more rapidly toward advanced degrees.By eliminating that extra year, there year degree students save 25% in costs. Instead of taking 30 credits a year, these students take 40. During January, Hartwick runs a four week course during which students may earn three to four credits on or off campus, including a number of international sites. Summer courses are not required, but a student may enroll in them—and pay extra. Three year students get first crack at course registration. There are no changes in the number of courses professors teach or in their pay.The three-year degree isn’t a new idea. Geniuses have always breezed through. Judson College, a 350-student institution in Alabama, has offered students a three-year option for 40 years. Students attend “short terms” in May and June to earn the credits required for graduation. Bates College in Maine and Ball State University in Indiana are among other colleges offering three-year options.Changes at the high-school level are also helping to make it easier for many students to earn their undergraduate degrees in less time. One of five students arrives at college today with Advanced Placement (AP) credits amounting to a semester or more of college level work. Many universities, including large schools like the University of Texas, make it easy for these AP students to graduate faster.For students who don’t plan to stop with an undergraduate degree, the three-year plan may have an even greater appeal. Dr. John Sergent, head of Vanderbilt University Medical School’s residency (住院医生) program, enrolled in Vanderbilt’s undergraduate college in 1959. He entered medical school after only three years as did four or five of his classmates.” My first year of medical school counted as my senior year, which meant I had to take three to four labs a week to get all my sciences in. I basically skipped my senior year,” says Sergent. He still had time to be a student senator and meet his wife.There are, however, drawbacks to moving through school at such a brisk pace. For one, it deprives students of the luxury of time to roam (遨游) intellectually. Compressing everything into three years also leaves less time for growing up, engaging in extracurricular activities, and studying abroad. On crowded campuses it could mean fewer opportunities to get into a prized professor’s class. Iowa’s Waldorf College has graduated several hundred students in its three-year degree program, but it now phasing out the option. Most Waldorf students wanted the full four-year experience—academically, socially, and athletically. And faculty members will be wary of any change that threatens the core curriculum in the name of moving students into the workforce.“Most high governmental officials seem to conceive of education in this light—as a way to ensure economic competitiveness and continued economic growth,” Derek Bok, former president of Harvard, told The Washington Post. “I strongly disagree with thisapp roach.” Another risk: the new campus schedules might eventually produce less revenue for the institution and longer working hours for faculty members.Adopting a three-year option will not come easily to most school. Those that wish to tackle tradition and make American campus more cost-conscious may find it easier to take Trachtenberg’s advice: open campuses year-round.“You could run two complete colleges, with two complete faculties,”he says.“That’s without cutting the length of students’ vacations, increasing class sizes, or requiring faculty to teach more.”Whether they experiment with three-year degrees, offer year-round classes, challenge the tenure system—or all of the above—universities are slowly realizing that to stay competitive and relevant they must adapt to a rapidly changing world.Expanding the three-year option may be difficult, but it may be less difficult than asking Congress for additional financial help, asking legislators for more state support, or asking students even higher tuition payments. Campuses willing to adopt convenient schedules along with more focused, less-expensive degrees may find that they have a competitive advantage in attracting bright, motivated students. These sorts of innovations can help American universities avoid the perils of success.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

2012年6月英语六级作文

2012年6月英语六级作文In June 2012, the English CET-6 exam was a challengefor many students. It tested not only our language proficiency but also our ability to think critically and express ideas effectively.The exam started with a bang as the reading comprehension section came up first. I remember skimming through the texts, trying to grasp the main ideas quickly. It was like playing a game of speed-reading, where every word mattered. The questions were designed to test our understanding of the text in depth, pushing us to dig deeper into the meaning and context.Moving on to the listening section, it was a different ballgame. It required active listening and quick reaction. The audio clips were played at a brisk pace, and we had to be on our toes to catch every detail. It was like participating in a fast-paced conversation, where missing a word could mean missing the whole point.The translation section was a test of our language skills. It challenged us to convey the meaning of a Chinese text accurately and fluently in English. It was like a dance between two languages, trying to find the right steps to make the translation smooth and natural.Finally, the writing section was where we could truly show our creativity and expression. Given a topic, we had to develop ideas, organize them logically, and write a coherent essay. It was like building a house, starting with the foundation and gradually adding layers of detail and depth.Overall, the English CET-6 exam was a comprehensivetest of our English language abilities. It pushed us to our limits and helped us identify areas for improvement. Although it was challenging, it was also a rewarding experience。
