Driven by fasterinternet connections, ubiquitous(⽆处不在的)smartphones and changing insurance standards, more health providers are turning to electronic communications to do their jobs—and it's dramatically changing the delivery of healthcare.[B]Doctors are linking up with patients by phone, email and webcam(⽹络摄像头). They're alsoconsulting with each other electronically—sometimes to make split-second decisions on heart attacks and strokes. Patients,meanwhile, are using new devices to relay their blood pressure, heart rate and other vital signs to their doctors so they can manage chronic conditions at home.Telemedicine also allows for better care in places where medical expertise is hard to come by.Five to 10 times a day, Doctors Without Borders relays questions about tough cases from its physicians in Niger, South Sudan and elsewhere to its network of 280 experts around the world, and back again via the internet.[C]As a measure of how rapidly telemedicine is spreading, consider: More than 15 millionAmericans received some kind of medical care remotely last year, according to the A- merican Telemedicine Association, a trade group, which expects those numbers to grow by 30% this year.[D]None of this is to say that telemedicine has found its way into all comers of medicine. A recentsurvey of 500 tech-savvy(精通技术的)consumers found that 39% hadn't heard of telemedicine, and of those who haven't used it, 42% said they preferred in-person doctor visits. In a poll of 1,500 family physicians, only 15% had used it in their practices —but 90% said they would if it were appropriately reimbursed (补偿).[E]What's more, for all the rapid growth, significant questions and challenges remain. Rulesdefining and regulating telemedicine differ widely from state to state. Physicians groups are issuing different guidelines about what care they consider appropriate to de-liver and in what form.[F]Some critics also question whether the quality of care is keeping up with the rapid expansion oftelemedicine. And there*s the question of what services physicians should be paid for：Insurance coverage varies from health plan to health plan, and a big federal plan covers only a narrow range of services. Telemedicine*s future will depend on how—and whether—regulators, providers, payers and patients can address these challenges. Here's a closer look at some of these issues:[G]Do patients trade quality for convenience? The fastest-growing services in telemedicine connectconsumers with clinicians they've never met for a phone, video or email visit— on-demand,24/7. Typically, these are for nonemergency issues such as colds, flu, ear-aches and skin rashes, and they cost around $ 45, compared with approximately $ 100 at a doctor*s office, $ 160 at an urgent-care clinic or $ 750 and up at an emergency room.[H]Many health plans and employers have rushed to offer the services and promote them as aconvenient way for plan members to get medical care without leaving home or work. Nearly three-quarters of large employers will offer virtual doctor visits as a benefit to employees this year, up from 48% last year. Web companies such as Teladoc and A- merican Well are expected to host some 1.2 million such virtual doctor visits this year, up 20% from last year, according to the American Telemedicine Association.[I]But critics worry that such services may be sacrificing quality fbr convenience. Consulting arandom doctor patients will never meet, they say, further fragments the health-care system, and even minor issues such as upper respiratory（上呼吸道的）in_ fections can't be thoroughly evaluated by a doctor who can*t listen to your heart or feel your swollen glands. In a recent study, researchers posing as patients with skin problems sought help from 16 telemedicine sites—with unsettling results. In 62 encounters, fewer than one-third disclosed clinicians7 credential or let patients choose；only 32% discussed potential side effects of prescribed medications. Several sites misdiagnosed serious conditions, largely because they failed to ask basic follow-up questions, the researchers said. w Telemedicine holds enormous promise, but these sites are just not ready for prime time,M says Jack Resneck, the study *s lead author. [J]The American Telemedicine Association and other organizations have started accreditation （鉴定）programs to identify top-quality telemedicine sites. The American Medical Association this month approved new ethical guidelines for telemedicine, calling fbr participating doctors to recognize the limitations of such services and ensure that they have sufficient information to make clinical recommendations.[K]Who pays for the services? While employers and health plans have been eager to cover virtual urgent-care visits, insurers have been far less willing to pay for telemedicine when doctors use phone, email or video to consult with existing patients about continuing issues. "It's very hard to get paid unless you physically see the patient," says Peter Rasmussen, medical director of distance health at the Cleveland Clinic. Some 32 states have passed "parity”（等同的）laws requiring private insurers to reimburse doctors forservices delivered remotely if the same service would be covered in person, though not necessarily at the same rate or frequency. Medicare lags further behind. The federal health plan for the elderly covers a small number of telemedicine services—only for beneficiaries in rural areas and only when the services are received in a hospital, doctor's office or clinic.[L]Bills to expand Medicare coverage of telemedicine have bipartisan（两党的）support in Congress. Opponents worry that such expansion would be costly for taxpayers, but advocates say it would save money in the long run.[M]Experts say more hospitals are likely to invest in telemedicine systems as they move away from fee-fbr-service payments and into managed-care-type contracts that give them a set fee to provide care for patients and allow them to keep any savings they achieve.[N]Is the state-by-state regulatory system outdated? Historically, regulation of medicine has been left to individual states. But some industry members contend that having 50 different sets of rules, licensing fees and even definitions of "medical practice" makes less sense in the era of telemedicine and is hampering its growth. Currently, doctors must have a valid license in the state where the patient is located to provide medical care, which means virtual-visit companies can match users only with locally licensed clinicians. It also causes administrative hassles（⿇烦）for world-class medical centers that attract patients from across the country. At the Mayo Clinic, doctors who treat out-of- state patients can follow up with them via phone, email or web chats when they return home, but they can only discuss the conditions they treated in person. "If the patient wants to talk about a new problem, the doctor has to be licensed in that state to discuss it. If not, the patient should talk to his primary-care physician about it," says Steve Ommen, who runs Mayo's Connected Care program.[O]To date, 17 states have joined a compact that will allow a doctor licensed in one member state to quickly obtain a license in another. While welcoming the move, some telemedicine advocates would prefer states to automatically honor one another's licenses, as they do with drivers* licenses. But states aren't likely to surrender control of medical practice, and most are considering new regulations. This year, more than 200 telemedicine-related bills have been introduced in 42 states, many regarding what services Medicaid will cover and whether payers should reimburse for remote patient monitoring. M A lot of states are still trying to define telemedicine，'‘ says Lisa Robbin, chief advocacy officer for the Federation of State Medical Boards.36.An overwhelming majority of family physicians are willing to use telemedicine if they are dulypaid.37.Many employers are eager to provide telemedicine service as a benefit to their employeesbecause of its convenience.38.Different states have markedly different regulations for telemedicine.39.With telemedicine, patients in regions short of professional medical service are able to receivebetter medical care.40.Unlike employers and health plans, insurers have been rather reluctant to pay for some2020.9 第4页/共20页（第2套）telemedicine services.41.Some supporters of telemedicine hope states will accept each other's medical practice licenses asvalid.42.The fastest growing area for telemedicine services is for lesser health problems.43.As telemedicine spreads quickly, some of its opponents doubt whether its service quality can beguaranteed.44.The results obtained by researchers who pretended to be patients seeking help from telemedicineproviders are disturbing.45.Some people argue that the fact that different states have different regulations concerningmedical services hinders the development of telemedicine.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages 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) andD). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Danielle Steel, the 71-year-old romance novelist is notoriously productive, having published 179 books at a rate of up to seven a year. But a passing reference in a recent profile by Glamour magazine to her 20-hour workdays prompted an outpouring of admiration.Steel has given that 20-hour figure when describing her "exhausting" process in the past："I start the book and don't leave my desk until the first draft is finished.M She goes from bed, to desk, to bath, to bed, avoiding all contact aside from phone calls with her nine children. W I don't comb my hair for weeks," she says. Meals are brought to her desk, where she types until her fingers swell and her nails bleed.The business news website Quartz held Steel up as an inspiration, writing that if only we all followed her w actually extremely liberating M example of industrious sleeplessness, we would be quick to see results.Well, indeed. With research results showing the cumulative effects of sleep loss and its impact on productivity, doubt has been voiced about the accuracy of Steel's self-assessment. Her output may be undeniable, but sceptics have suggested that she is guilty of erasing the role of ghostwriters (代笔⼈)at worst, gross exaggeration at best.Steel says working 20 hours a day is u pretty brutal physically.M But is it even possible? "No," says Maryanne Taylor of the Sleep Works. While you could work that long, the impact on productivity would make it hardly worthwhile. If Steel was routinely sleeping for four hours a night, she would be drastically underestimating the negative impact, says Alison Gardiner, founder of the sleep improvement programme Sleepstation. "It's akin to being drunk."It's possible that Steel is exaggerating the demands of her schedule. Self-imposed sleeplessness has w become a bit of a status symbol" , says Taylor, a misguided measure to prove how powerful and productive you are. Margaret Thatcher was also said to get by on four hours a night, while the 130-hour work weeks endured by tech heads has been held up as key to their success.That is starting to change with increased awareness of the importance of sleep for mental health."People are starting to realise that sleep should not be something that you fit in between everything else，'‘ says Taylor. But it is possible—if statistically extremely unlikely—that Steel could be bom a "short sleeper" with an unusual body clock, says sleep expert Dr. Sophie Bostock. "It's probably present in fewer than 1% of the population.vEven if Steel does happen to be among that tiny minority, says Bostock, it's H pretty irre-sponsible M to suggest that 20-hour days are simply a question of discipline for the rest of us.46.What do we learn from the passage about Glamour magazine readers?A)They are intrigued by the exotic romance in Danielle SteeFs novels.B)They are amazed by the number of books written by Danielle Steel.C)They are deeply impressed by Danielle Steel's daily work schedule.D)They are highly motivated by Danielle SteeFs unusual productivity.47.What did the business news website Quartz say about Danielle Steel?A)She could serve as an example of industriousness.B)She proved we could liberate ourselves from sleep.C)She could be an inspiration to novelists all over the world.D)She showed we could get all our work done without sleep.48.What do sceptics think of Danielle Steel's work schedule claims?A)They are questionable. C) They are irresistible.B)They are alterable. D) They are verifiable.49.What does Maryanne Taylor think of self-imposed sleeplessness?A)It may turn out to be key to a successful career.B)It may be practiced only by certain tech heads.C)It may symbolise one*s importance and success.D)It may well serve as a measure of self-discipline.50.How does Dr. Sophie Bostock look at the 20-hour daily work schedule?A)One should not adopt it without consulting a sleep expert.B)The general public should not be encouraged to follow it.C)One must be duly self-disciplined to adhere to it.D)The majority must adjust their body clock for it.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Organic agriculture is a relatively untapped resource for feeding the Earth's population, especially in the face of climate change and other global challenges. That,s the conclusion I reached in reviewing 40 years of science comparing the long-term prospects of organic and conventional farming.The review study, u Organic Agriculture in the 21st Century,M is featured as the cover story for the February issue of the journal Nature Plants. It is the first to compare organic and conventional agriculture across the main goals of sustainability identified by the National Academy of Sciences: productivity, economics, and environment.Critics have long argued that organic agriculture is inefficient, requiring more land to yield the same amount of food. It's true that organic farming produces lower yields, averaging 10 to 20 percentless than conventional. Advocates contend that the environmental advantages of organic agriculture far outweigh the lower yields, and that increasing research and breeding resources for organic systems would reduce the yield gap. Sometimes excluded from these arguments is the fact that we already produce enough food to more than feed the world,s 7.4 billion people but do not provide adequate access to all individuals.In some cases, organic yields can be higher than conventional. For example, in severe drought conditions, which are expected to increase with climate change in many areas, organic farms can produce as good, if not better, yields because of the higher water-holding capacity of organically farmed soils.What science does tell us is that mainstream conventional farming systems have provided growing supplies of food and other products but often at the expense of other sustainability goals.Conventional agriculture may produce more food, but it often comes at a cost to the en-vironment. Biodiversity loss, environmental degradation, and severe impacts on ecosystem services have not only accompanied conventional farming systems but have often extended well beyond their field boundaries. With organic agriculture, environmental costs tend to be lower and the benefits greater.Overall, organic faims tend to store more soil carbon, have better soil quality, and reduce soil erosion compared to their conventional counterparts. Organic agriculture also creates less soil and water pollution and lower greenhouse gas emissions. And it's more energy-efficient because it doesn't rely on synthetic fertilizers or pesticides.Organic agriculture is also associated with greater biodiversity of plants, animals, insects and microorganisms as well as genetic diversity. Biodiversity increases the services that nature provides and improves the ability of farming systems to adapt to changing conditions.Despite lower yields, organic agriculture is more profitable for farmers because consumers are willing to pay more. Higher prices, called price premiums, can be justified as a way to compensate farmers for providing ecosystem services andavoiding environmental damage or external costs.51.What do we learn from the conclusion of the author's review study?A)More resources should be tapped fbr feeding the world*s population.B)Organic farming may be exploited to solve the global food problem.C)The long-teim prospects of organic farming are yet to be explored.D)Organic farming is at least as promising as conventional farming.52.What is the critics* argument against organic farming?A)It cannot meet the need for food. C)It is not really practical.B)It cannot increase farm yields. D)It is not that productive.53.What does the author think should be taken into account in arguing about organic farming?A) Growth in world population. C)Inequality in food distribution.B) Deterioration in soil fertility. D)Advance in farming technology.54.What does science tell us about conventional farming?A)It will not be able to meet global food demand.B)It is not conducive to sustainable development.C)It will eventuaDy give way to organic farming.D)It is going mainstream throughout the world.55.Why does the author think higher prices of organic farm produce are justifiable?A)They give farmers going organic a big competitive edge.B)They motivate farmers to upgrade farming technology.C)Organic farming costs more than conventional fanning.D)Organic farming does long-term good to the ecosystem.Part IV Translation (30 minutes) Directions: For this part, you are allowed30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

You're a senior advisor at the European organization for nuclear research. You also seem to tour the globe tirelessly giving talks. And In addition, you have your own weekly TV show on science. Where do you get the energy?W：Oh,well, I just love what I do. I am extremely fortunate life doing what I love doing.M：Professor, what exactly is your goal? Why do you do all of this?W：Well, As you said, I do have different things going on. But these, I think, can be divided into two groups. The education of science and the further understanding of science.M：Don't these two things get in the way of each other? What I mean is, doesn't giving lectures take time away from the lab?W：Not really. No, I love teaching. And I don't mind spending more time doing that now than in the past. Also what I will say is that teaching a subject helps me comprehend it better myself. I find that it furthers my own knowledge when I have to explain something clearly. When I have to aid others in understanding it. And when I have to answer questions about it, teaching at a high level can be very stimulating. One, no matter how much expertise they may already have in the field, they are instructingM：any scientific breakthroughs that you see on the near horizon? a significant discovery on venture. And we can expect soon?W：the world is always conducting science and there are constantly new things being discovered. In fact, right now we have too much data sitting in computers. For example, we have thousands of photos of planet mars taken by telescopes that nobody has ever seen. We have them yet. Nobody has had time to look at them with their own eyes, let alone analyze them.Questions one to four are based on the conversation you have just heard.Question 1. Why does the woman say she can be so energetic?答案：Oh,well, I just love what I do.Question 2. What has the woman been engaged in?答案：The education of science and the further understanding of science.Question 3. What does the woman say about the benefit teaching brings to her?答案：teaching a subject helps me comprehend it better myselfQuestion 4. How does the woman say new scientific breakthroughs can be made possible?答案：to look at them with their own eyes and analyze them Conversation two.对于梦的起源的探讨(摊手)M：Do you think dreams have special meanings?W：No, I don't think they do.M：Don't either. But some people do. I would say people who believe that dreams have meanings are superstitious, especially nowadays, in the past, during the times of ancient Egypt, Greece or China, people used to believe that dreams could foresee the future. But today, with all the scientific knowledge that we have, I think it's much harder to believe in these sorts of things.W：My grandmother is superstitious, and she thinks dreams can predict the future. Once she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashed, can you guess what she did? She didn't take that flight. She didn't even bother to go to the airport the following day. Instead she took the same flight. But a week later, everything was fine. Of course, no plane ever crashed.M：How funny did you know that flying is actually safer than any other mode of transport? It's been statistically proven. People can be so irrational sometimes.W：Yes, absolutely. But even if we think they are ridiculous, emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking.M：Exactly. People do all sorts of crazy things because of their irrational feelings. But in fact, some psychologists believe that our dreams are the result of our emotions and memories from that day. I think it was Sigmund Freud who said that children's dreams were usually simple representations of their wishes, things they wished would happen. But in adults, dreams a much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments.W：Isn't it interesting how psychologists try to understand using the scientific method something as bizarre as dreams? Psychology is like the rational study of irrational feelings.Questions five to eight are based on the conversation you have just heard.Question 5. What do both speakers think of dreams?答案：they don’t have special meaningsQuestion 6. Why didn't the woman's grandmother take her scheduled flight?答案：Once she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashedQuestion 7. What does the woman say about people's emotions?答案：emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking.Question 8. What did psychologist Sigmund Freud say about adults dreams?答案：But in adults, dreams a much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments.Passage one.南极考察队对于V湖冰面下生物的探索While some scientists explore the surface of antarctica, others are learning more about a giant body of water four kilometres beneath the ice pack.Scientists first discovered lake Voss dock in the 19 seventy's by using radio waves that penetrate the ice. Since then, they have used sound waves and evensatellites to map this massive body of water. How does the water in lake Vohs dog remain liquid beneath an ice sheet? The thick glacier above acts like an insulating blanket and keeps the water from freezing, says Martin Siegert, a glaciologist from the university of Wales. In addition, geothermal heat from deep within the earth may warm the hidden lake. The scientists suspect that microorganisms may be living in lake vohs stock closed off from the outside world for more than 2 million years.Anything found there will be totally alien to what's on the surface of the earth to see a good scientists are trying to find a way to drill into the ice and draw water samples without causing contamination. Again, robots might be the solution. If all goes as planned, a drill shaped robot will through the surface eyes. When it reaches the lake, it will release another robot that can swim in the lake, take pictures, and look for signs of life. The scientists hope their discoveries will shed light on life in outer space, which might exist in similar dark and airless conditions.Recently, close up pictures of jupiter, as moon europa shows signs of water beneath its icy surface. Once tested in antarctica, robots could be sent to europa to search for life there too.Questions 9 to 11. Based on the passage you have just heard.Question 9. What did scientists first use to discover lake V stock in the 1970s?答案：using radio waves that penetrate the iceQuestion 10. What do scientists think about lake vast dock?答案：microorganisms may be living in lake vohs stock closed off from the outside world for more than 2 million yearsQuestion 11. What do the scientists hope their discoveries will do?答案：shed light on life in outer space, which might exist in similar dark and airless conditionsPassage two.吉姆斯对于印第安语言的记录及其科研过程和心得The idea to study the American Indian tribe torah, who Morris came to James Copeland in 1984, when he discovered that very little research had been done on their language.

It seems today that people are terrified of the term, particularly of having the label attached to them. Accusing individuals or groups of being radical often serves to silence them into submission, thereby maintaining the existing state of affairs, and more important, preserving the power of a select minority who are mostly wealthy white males in western society.Feminism is a perfect example of this phenomenon. The women's movement has been plagued by stereotypes, misrepresentations by the media, and accusations of man hating and radicalism. When the basic foundation of feminism is simply that women deserve equal rights in all facets of life, when faced with a threat of being labeled radical women back down from their worthy cause and consequently participate in their own oppression, it has gotten to the point that many women are afraid to call themselves feminists because of the stigma attached to the word. If people refuse to be controlled and intimidated by stigma, as the stigma as lose all their power, without fear and which to feed such stigma as can only die. To me, a radical is simply someone who rebels against the norm. What advocates a change in the existingstate of affairs? On closer inspection, it becomes clear that the norm is constantly involving and therefore is not a constant entity.So why there is deviation from the present situation? Such a threat than the state of affairs itself is unstable. And subject to relentless transformation, it all goes back to maintaining the power of those who have it and preventing the rise of those who don't. In fact, when we look at the word radical in a historical context, nearly every figure we now hold up as a hero was considered a radical in his or her time. Radicals are people who affect change. They are the people about whom history is written. Abolitionists were radicals. Civil rights activists were radicals, even the founders of our country in their fight to win independence from England or radicals. Their presence in history has changed the way our society functions, mainly by shifting the balance of power that previously existed. There are some radicals who have made a negative impact on humanity. But undeniably, there would simply be no progress without radicals. That being said, next time someone calls me a radical, I will accept that label with pride.Questions 16 to 18 are based on the recording you have just heard.Question 16. What usually happens when people are accused of being radical?答案：preserving the power of a select minority who are mostly wealthy white males in western society.Question 17. What is the speaker's definition of a radical?答案：a radical is simply someone who rebels against the norm.Question 18. What does the speaker think of most radicals in the American history?答案：there would simply be no progress without radicals.Recording two.人的社会性因素：不可避免的被环境影响We are very susceptible to the influence of the people around us. For instance, you may have known somebody who has gone overseas for a year or so and has returned with an accent. Perhaps. We become part of our immediate environment. None of us are immune to the influences of our own world.And let us not kid ourselves that we are untouched by the things and the people in our life.Fred goes off to his new job at a factory. Fred takes his 10 minute coffee break, but the other workers take a half an hour. Fred says, what's the matter with you guys? Two weeks later, Fred is taking 20 minute breaks. A month later, Fred takes his half hour. Fred is saying, if you can't beat them, join them, why should I work any harder than the next guy?The fascinating thing about being human is that generally we are unaware that there are changes taking place in our mentality. It is like returning to the city smog after some weeks in the fresh air. Only then do we realize that we have become accustomed to the nasty smells mix with critical people. And we learn to criticize mixed with happy people. And we learn about happiness. What this means is that we need to decide what we want from life and then choose our company accordingly.You may well say that is going to take some effort. It may not be comfortable. I may offend some of my present company. Right? But it is your life. Fred may say I'm always broke frequently depressed. I'm going nowhere and I never do anything exciting. Then we discover that friends, best friends, are always broke, frequently depressed, going nowhere and wishing that life was more exciting. This is not coincidence. Nor is it our business to stand in judgmentof Fred. However, if Fred ever wants to improve his quality of life, the first thing he'll need to do is recognize what has been going on all these years. It's no surprise that doctors as a profession suffer a lot of ill health because they spend their lives around sick people. Psychiatrists have a higher incidence of suicide in their profession for related reasons.Traditionally, nine out of tension, whose parents' smoke smoke themselves. Obesity is in part an environmental problem. Successful people have successful friends. And so the story goes on.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the recording you have just heard.Question 19. What does the speaker say about us as human beings?答案：None of us are immune to the influences of our own world.Question 20. What does the speaker say Fred should do first to improve his quality of life?答案：It is like returning to the city smog after some weeks in the fresh airQuestion 21.What does the speaker say about psychiatrists?答案：Psychiatrists have a higher incidence of suicide in their profession for related reasons.Recording three.美元的发展历史(这玩意有啥可说的?)Virtually every American can recognize a dollar bill at a mere glance. Many can identify it by its sound or texture. But few people indeed can accurately describe the world's most powerful, important currency. The American dollar bill is colored with black ink on one side and green on the other. The exact composition of the paper and ink is a closely guarded government secret. Despite its weighty importance, the dollar bill actually weighs little. It requires nearly 500 bills to tip the scales at a pound. Not only is the dollar bill lightweight, but it also has a brief lifespan. Few dollar bills survive longer. 18 months.The word dollar is taken from the German word, tailor the name for the world's most important currency in the 16th century.The Thaler was a silver coin first minted in 1518 under the reign of Charles the 5th, emperor of Germany.The concept of paper money is a relatively recent innovation in the history of American currency. When the constitution was signed,people had little regard for paper money because of its steadily decreasing value during the colonial era. Because of this lack of faith, the new American government minted only coins for common currency. Interest bearing bank notes were issued at the same time. But their purpose was limited to providing money for urgent government crises, such as American involvement in the war of 1812. The first non interest bearing paper currency was authorized by congress in 1862. At the height of the civil war. At this point, citizens, old fears of devalued paper currency had calmed. The dollar bill was born. The new green colored paper money quickly earned the nickname greenback. Today, the American dollar bill is a product of the federal reserve and is issued from the 12 federal reserve banks around the United States. The government keeps a steady supply of approximately 2 billion bills in circulation at all times.Controversy continues to surround the true value of the dollar bill.American history has seen generations of politicians argue in favor of a gold standard for American currency. However, for the present, the American dollar bill holds the value that is printed on it and little more. The only other guarantee on the bill is a federalreserve pledge as a confirmation in the form of government securities.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the recording you have just heard.Question 22. What does the speaker say about the American dollar bill?答案：The American dollar bill is colored with black ink on one side and green on the otherQuestion 23. What does the speaker say about the exact composition of the American dollar bill?答案：a closely guarded government secret.Question 24. Why did the new American government mint only coins for common currency?答案：because of its steadily decreasing value during the colonial era. Because of this lack of faithQuestion 25.

You can start your essay with the sentence “Online libraries are becoming increasingly popular”. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.本题要求考生分析在线图书馆变得越来越受欢迎的情况，属于分析现象型作文。

为了把在线图书馆受欢迎的程度具体化，接下来可以引用最新的统计数据以资佐证。
第二段分析出现这一社会现象的原因，即为什么在线图书馆变得越来越受欢迎。
为此，就要分析在线图书馆有哪些优点。
与传统图书馆相比，在线图书馆的优点有很多，但最好从读者能够直接感受到的方面去分析。

例如，在分析“使用方便”时，可以指出在线图书馆24小时开放且没有休息日，只要与图书馆有网络连接，随时都可以使用。
借阅者也不必亲自跑到图书馆一个书架一个书架地找书。
在分析“信息易得”时，可以指出在线图书馆界面友好，只需点击鼠标就可以阅读馆藏图书和学术杂志。
此外，在线图书馆的资料可以方便地下载和打印。
分析现象型作文一般是沿着提出问题—分析问题—解决问题的思路展开。

2020年9月19日大学英语六级考试答案
2020年9月19日大学英语六级考试答案写作（3套）第一套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “Wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.There is a widespread saying that wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.Simple as the saying is, it informs us that spiritual richness should be attached great importance to.With the development of economy, people in increasing numbers become better off. However, money doesn’t necessarily ensure happiness or well-being. Therefore, in order to gain wealth of the mind, we should lay great emphasis on meaningful things. For instance, lifelong learning, by occupying people’s time so constructively, make people contented, with no time for boredom. Little by little, enriching oneself has become the source of happiness and contentment and that’s when one gains true wealth of the mind.Therefore, by some means or other we must come to know how to enrich our mind. It is necessary for us students to adopt a healthy and meaningful life style by improving ourselves constantly. Only in this way can we obtain true wealth in life.第二套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “What is worth doing is worth doing well.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.What Is Worth Doing Is Worth Doing WellThe saying “What is worth doing is worth doing well” tells us that if you decide to do something, then you have to to it well and to the best of your ability, which means paying attention to every little detail of the thing that you are doing to make sure it is done properly.Some people are against the idea, saying that when it comes to implementing an idea, things that are worth doing are worth doing poorly, because many things don’t get done at all for the reason that the concern for perfection trumps the practice of “just do it”. As for me, there are many reasons for doing things well. Firstly, taking the time to learn how to do things well, even though it may be slower at first, will allow you to be more proficient in the future. Secondly, doing things well is an attitude which is important for your life development. Right attitude matters most, but not the result.So, if you t hink something is worth doing, just try to do it well. You’ll finally get a sense of accomplishment for a job well done, and make further improvement.第三套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “Beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.Beauty of the soul is the essential beautyThere is a famous saying that beauty of the soul is the essential beauty. It tells us that man’s spiritual beauty is much more important than his outer beauty.Spiritual beauty is something to which a person needs to pay attention, because, as he gets on with his life, all deeds and actions are drawn from that inner beauty. Spiritual beauty is the reflection of one's cultivation, self-restraint and bearing. Appearance is just some external representation, such as people's clothing, family background, education. Having a good degree, you may find a decent job, but without the fortitude, the good job will eventually leave you. Therefore, only the spiritual beauty is worth pursuing and cherishing.All in all, everyone should have a pair of eyes to find beauty and love beauty. Beauty is not in your appearance, not in your identity, but in your soul.听力（1套）1.A)She can devote all her life to pursing her passion.2.D)Science education and scientific research.3.A)A better understanding of a subject.4.B)By making full use of the existing data.5.

Advocates of bilingual education argued that it produces positive effects though they may be limited.P A review of studies published last year found that cognitive advantages failed to appear in 83 per-cent of published studies,44.

作文第一套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying Beauty of the soul is the essen-tial beauty. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.范文：In this rapidly developing society, what we persue has never been more abundant than ever before. We care about the food safety, the money we can earn, the health of the people around us and the apperence of us, namely beauty.Talking about- beauty, ideas may differ from person to person. Among all the elements of beauty that modern people attach importance to, I reckon that beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.Looking around, we may find many facts which can relectthe value in the saying. Take Lihong as an example, she is not the traditionally typical youngster who would be consid-ered beautiful. However, she keeps doing good routinelyand insists in helping those in need. When mentioned,Lihong is always the exemplary model praised by every-body. To many acquaintances of hers, they think she is one of the most beautiful girls they' ve ever met. In the case of Lihong, beauty of the soul is more essentially valued than that of her appearence.pipassTo conclude, it is not the fashionable hairstyle, not the ex-pensive clothes we wear, but beauty of our soul that deter-mines how people see us. This reminds us agian of the value that beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.作文第二套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying What is worth doing is worth doing well.

No matter what we are going to do, one thing is certain, we have to spare no effortto make the worthy task fully accomplished. As the saying goes, what is worth doing is worth doing well.Looking around, we may find many deeds to which we can apply the value relected in the saying. Take myself as an ex-ample, I made my mind to attend the postgraduate entranceexams at the beginning of last year, which for me I thought was worth doing. Once the decision had been made, I never doubted the possibility of not being able to pass the exams. eI made a comprehensive plan for the whole year study and stuck to it strictly. In the end, I managed topass the examsand became a qualified graduate student.>To conclude, what is worth doing is definitely what is mean-ingful to us and even can have a long-term influence on ourlife and growth. Only when we accomplish what is worth doing well can we be more likely to succeed.作文第三套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying Wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.

Among all the elements of wealth that modern people attach importance to, I reckon that wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.Looking around, we may find many facts which can reflect the value in the saying. Take Lihong as an example, she is not the traditionally typical youngster who would be considered wealthy. However, she keeps reading books routinely and insists in attending a variety of lectures. When mentioned, Lihong is always the exemplary model praised by everybody. To many acquaintances of hers, they think she is one of the most knowledge able and thoughtful girls they’ve ever met. In the case of Lihong, wealth of the mind is more essentially valued than the money she possesses.To conclude, it is not the money we earn but wealth of our mind that determines how people see us. This reminds us again of the value that wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.翻译（卷三）《西游记》(Journey to the West)也许是中国文学四大经典小说中最具影响力的一部，当然也是在国外最广为人知的一部小说。

2020年9月英语六级作文真题答案：第一套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “Beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.In modern society, external beauty is more favorable since people with attractive appearance get more implicit benefits, which has triggered a controversy as to the importance of inner beauty and outer beauty. People from different walks of life hold various opinions on this topic, among which there goes a well-known saying: "Beauty of the soul is the essential beauty", intending to encourage people to pursue internal beauty rather than going blindly after physical appearance.I strongly support this idea. There are two contributory reasons for my decision. Above all, it can benefit our society in that it is the good qualities like integrity, honesty and warm heart, which inner beauty boasts, that facilitate the development of the entire society. Moreover, everyone should try to be kind and understanding. Without a kind heart, people will grow indifferent and gradually they will make no contribution both to their family and to the society. They will probably lead an empty life too.From my perspective, it is crucial that modern education should encourage people to look highly of inner beauty instead of superficial attractiveness. Also, it is high time that people understood the real meaning and value of being beautiful. Only in this way can they achieve a balanced and meaningful life.。

2020年9月英语六级作文答案：第二套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “What is worth doing is worth doing well.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.There is a life attitude popular in the current world, which encourages us to do what we love. However, the reality is not always what we expected it to be. And I believe the best life attitude is to love what we do, just as the saying goes, "What is worth doing is worth doing well".First of all, everything we do has its own value. If you think something you are doing is useless, it is just that you haven't recognized its significance. Somethings, trivial and unimportant as they may seem, can play a big role somewhere you haven't yet noticed, just like the butterfly effects. So, we need to do our best in everything we do. Only in this way, will no efforts be wasted. Secondly, finishing all tasks at our best brings ourselves extra happiness. As we put our mind into what we are doing, we can find enjoyment and gain a sense of fulfillment. So, doing what we are doing well can light our own lives."What is worth doing is worth doing well" is a wise quotation. It inspires us to have a positive attitude towards life. We should all bear it in mind. Love what we do and reach our full potential to make the best of our lives.。

You can start your essay with the sentence "Online dictionaries are becoming increasingly popular. " You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.参考范文：With the growing popularity of smartphones and the high coverage rate of wireless network, online dictionaries are becoming increasingly popular for students in daily study. It seems to be a trend that online dictionaries would replace paper ones. However, just as the saying goes, “different strokes for different folks.”Some students are more prone to use online dictionaries and have two points to support it. First, online dictionaries are more portable, and make it possible to look up any new words that we met anytime and anywhere only via a small phone in our hands. Second, we can improve both written and oral skills, as online dictionaries allow us to hear the native pronunciation of eachword clearly. Whereas others hold differently. They are still in favor of use print ones. For one thing, paper dictionaries can protect our eyesight better than online ones as digital devices may emit radiation if we watch the electronic screen for a long time. For another, using the print dictionary can prevent us from being distracted by reminders of irrelevant information.As far as I’m concerned, although the content of paper dictionaries is authoritative, its lexicon is not updated as quickly as online ones. After all, we live in an information age and can have access to many hot words on the Internet every day.【选词填空第1套】26. H integrate27. B coincidence28. A associated29. L recognizable30. I maximizes31.

2020年9月英语六级考试参考答案
2020年9月英语六级考试参考答案作（3套）第一套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “Wealth of the mind isthe only true wealth.”You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.There is a widespread saying that wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.Simple as the saying is, it informs us that spiritual richness should be attached great importance to.With the development of economy, people in increasing numbers become better off. However, money d oesn’t necessarily ensure happiness or well-being. Therefore, in order to gain wealth of the mind, we should lay greatemphasis on meaningful things. For instance, lifelong learning, by occupying people’s time so constructively, make people contented, with no time for boredom. Little by little, enriching oneself has become the source of happiness and contentment and that’s when one gains true wealth of the mind.Therefore, by some means or other we must come to know how to enrich our mind. It is necessary for us students to adopt a healthy and meaningful life style by improving ourselves constantly. Only in this way can we obtain true wealth in life.第二套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “What is worth doing is worth doing well.”You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.What Is Worth Doing Is Worth Doing WellThe saying “What is worth doing is worth doing well”tells us that if you decide to do something, then you have to to it well and to the best of your ability, whichmeans paying attention to every little detail of the thing that you are doing to make sure it is done properly.Some people are against the idea, saying that when it comes to implementing an idea, things that are worthdoing are worth doing poorly, because many things don’t get done at all for the reason that the concern for perfection trumps the practice of “just do it”. As for me, there are many reasons for doing things well. Firstly, taking the time to learn how to do things well, even though it may be slower at first, will allow you to be more proficient in the future.Secondly, doing things well is an attitude which is important for your life development. Rightattitude matters most, but not the result.So, if you think something is worth doing, just try to do it well. You’ll finally get a sense of accomplishment for a job well done, and make further improvement.第三套Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying “Beau ty of the soul is the essential beauty.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.Beauty of the soul is the essential beautyThere is a famous saying that beauty of the soul is the essential beauty. It tells us that man’s spiritual beauty is much more important than his outer beauty.Spiritual beauty is something to which a person needs to pay attention, because, as he gets on with his life, all deeds and actions are drawn from that innerbeauty.Spiritual beauty is the reflection of one's cultivation, self-restraint and bearing. Appearance is just some external representation, such as people's clothing, family background, education. Having a good degree,you may find a decent job, but without the fortitude, the good job will eventually leave you.Therefore, only the spiritual beauty is worth pursuing and cherishing.All in all, everyone should have a pair of eyes to findbeauty and love beauty.Beauty is not in your appearance, not in your identity, but in your soul.听力（共1套）1.A)She can devote all her life to pursing her passion.2.D)Science education and scientific research.3.A)A better understanding of a subject.4.B)By making full use of the existing data.5.

英语6级2020年9月作文题目
英语6级2020年9月作文题目英文回答：In an interconnected digital world, technology has become ubiquitous, offering unprecedented opportunities for education, communication, and knowledge dissemination. While technological advancements have revolutionized our lives and presented innumerable benefits, there are also inherent challenges and ethical considerations that warrant thorough examination.One significant concern is the potential for digital divides and exacerbating existing social inequalities. Access to technology and digital literacy vary widely across different regions, socio-economic groups, and age demographics. Those who lack adequate access or skills may be excluded from the benefits of digital technologies, leading to a widening digital gap. Additionally, the proliferation of misinformation and fake news online poses a threat to informed decision-making and critical thinking,potentially undermining trust in institutions and societal cohesion.Furthermore, the erosion of privacy and the commodification of personal data raise ethical concerns. Digital devices and services often collect vast amounts of user data, which can be used for advertising, targeted marketing, or even surveillance. While the benefits of personalized experiences and convenience cannot be denied, the potential for misuse and data breaches necessitates careful consideration of privacy rights and data protection measures.Moreover, the constant bombardment of digital stimuli and the blurring of boundaries between work and leisure can lead to psychological and physical challenges. Excessive screen time and digital addiction can negatively impact sleep, attention span, and overall well-being. The psychological effects of social media, including cyberbullying, body image issues, and the fear of missing out, can have significant consequences.Recognizing these challenges, it is imperative to adopt a multifaceted approach to harness the benefits of technology while mitigating its potential negative impacts. Governments and educational institutions play a crucialrole in bridging digital divides through equitable access and digital literacy programs. Media literacy and critical thinking skills must be fostered to enable individuals to navigate the digital realm effectively and discern credible information from unreliable sources.Ethical considerations must be at the forefront of technological development and implementation. Privacy laws and regulations need to be strengthened to protect personal data and prevent its misuse. Digital platforms should be held accountable for the content they disseminate and take proactive measures to combat misinformation and harmful online behavior.In addition, promoting digital well-being is essential. Encouraging mindful technology use, setting boundaries for screen time, and seeking support for digital addiction can help individuals maintain a healthy relationship withtechnology. By fostering a culture of responsible digital citizenship, we can harness the potential of technology while preserving the values and well-being of our society.In conclusion, while technology presents undeniable opportunities and has become an integral part of our lives, it also poses ethical and practical challenges that require thoughtful consideration. By addressing digital divides, safeguarding privacy, promoting digital well-being, and fostering ethical practices, we can harness the full potential of technology while mitigating its potential negative impacts and ensuring a more inclusive, equitable, and responsible digital future.中文回答：数字化时代的技术挑战与机遇。

【网络综合版】听力：Section ALong Conversation OneM: You are a professor of Physics at the University of Oxford. You are a senior advisor at the European Organization for Nuclear Research. You also seem to tour the global tirelessly, giving talks. And in addition, you have your own weekly TV show On Science. Where do you get the energy?W: Oh, well. 【Q1】I just love what I do. I am extremely fortunate to have this life, doing what I love doing.M: Professor, what exactly is your goal? Why do you do all of these?W: well, as you said, I do have different things going on. But these I think can be divided into 【Q2】two groups: the education of science, and the further understanding of science.M: Don't these two things get in the way of each other? What I mean is, doesn't giving lectures take time away from the lab?W: Not really, no. I love teaching, and I don’t mind spending more time doing that now than in the past. Also, what I will say is, that 【Q3】teaching a subject helps me comprehend it better myself. I find that it furthers my own knowledge when I have to explain something clearly, when I have to aid others understanding it, and when I have to answer questions about it. Teaching at a high level can be very stimulating for anyone, no matter how much expertise they may already have in the field they are instructing.M: Are there any scientific breakthroughs that you see on the near horizon? A significant discovery or invention we can expect soon.W: 【Q4】The world is always conducting science. And there're constantly new things being discovered. In fact, right now, we have too much data sitting in computers.For example, we have thousands of photos of planet Mars taken by telescopes that nobody has ever seen. We have them, yet nobody has had time to look at them with their own eyes, let alone analyze them.Q1: Why does the woman say she can be so energetic?Q2: What has the woman been engaged in?Q3: What does the woman say about the benefit teaching brings to her?Q4: How does the woman say new scientific breakthroughs can be made possible?Section AConversation 2M: Do you think dreams 【Q5】have special meanings?W: No. I don't think they do.M: I don't either, but some people do. I would say people who believe that dreams have special meanings are superstitious, especially nowadays. In the past, during the times of ancient Egypt, Greece or China, people used to believe that dreams could foresee the future. But today, with all the scientific knowledge that we have, I think it's much harder to believe in these sorts of things.W: My grandmother is superstitious, and she thinks dreams can predict the future. Once, 【Q6】she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashed.Can you guess what she did? She didn't take that flight. She didn't even bother to go to the airport the following day. Instead, she took the same flight but a week later. And everything was fine of course. No plane ever crashed.M: How funny! Did you know that flying is actually safer than any other mode of transport? It's been statistically proven. People can be so irrational sometimes.W: Yes, absolutely. But, even if we think they are ridiculous, 【Q7】emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking.M: Exactly. People do all sorts of crazy things because of their irrational feelings. But in fact, some psychologists believe that our dreams are the result of our emotions and memories from that day. I think it was Sigmund Freud who said that children's dreams were usually simple representations of their wishes, thingsthey wished would happen. 【Q8】But in adults', dreams are much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments.W: Isn't it interesting how psychologists try to understand using the scientific method something as bazaar as dreams? Psychology is like the rational study of irrational feelings.Q5: What do both speakers think of dreams?Q6: Why didn't the woman's grandmother take her scheduled flight?Q7: What does the woman say about people's emotions?Q8: What did psychologist Sigmund Freud say about adults' dreams?Section BPassage 1While some scientists explore the surface of the Antarctic, others are learning more about a giant body of water -- four kilometers beneath the ice pack. Scientists first discovered Lake Vostok in the 1970s by using radio waves that penetrate the ice. Since then, they have used sound waves and even satellites to map this massive body of water. How does the water in Lake Vostok remained liquid beneath an ice sheet? “The thick glacier above acts like insulating blanket and keeps the water from freezing,” said Martin Siegert, a glaciologist from the university of Wales. In addition, geothermal heat from the deep within the earth may warm the hidden lake.The scientists suspect that microorganisms may be living in Lake Vostok, closed or more than two million years. Anything found that off from the outside world f s on the surface of the earth, said Siegert. Scientists ’will be totally alien to what are trying to find a way to drill into the ice and draw water samples without causing ht be the solution. If all goes as planned, a contamination. Again, robots mig shift robot will melt through the surface ice. When it reaches the lake, it -drill will release another robot that can swim in the lake, take pictures and look for ries will shed light on life in outer signs of life. The scientists hope that discove up -space, which might exist in similar dark and airless conditions. Recently closed s moon, Europa, shows signs of water beneath the icy surface. ’pictures of Jupiter ropa to search for life there, Once tested the Antarctic, robots could be set to Eu too.Q9: What did the scientists first use to discover Lake Vostok in the 1970s? Q10: What did scientists think about Lake Vostok?Q11: What do the scientists hope their discoveries will do?Section BPassage 2The idea to study the American Indian tribe – Tarahumaras, came to James Copeland in 1984 when 【Q12】he discovered that very little research had been done on their language. He contacted the tribe member through a social worker who workedwith the tribes in Mexico. At first, the tribe member named Gonzalez was very reluctant to cooperate. He told Copeland that no amount of money could buy his language. But after Copeland explained to him what he intended to do with his research and how it would benefit the Tarahumaras, Gonzalez agreed to help. 【Q13】He took Copeland to his village and served as an intermediary. Copeland says, thanks to him, the Tarahumaras understood what their mission was and started trusting us. 【Q14】Entering the world of Tarahumaras has been a laborious project for Copeland.To reach their homeland, he must strive two and half days from Huston Taxes. He loads up his vehicle with goods that the tribe’s men can’t easily get and gives the goods to them as a gesture of friendship. The Tarahumaras, who don’t believe any humiliating wealth, take the food and share among themselves. For Copeland, the experience has not only been academically satisfying but also has enriched his life in several ways. 【Q15】“I see people rejecting technology and living a very hard, traditional life, which offers me another notion about the meaning of progress in the western tradition,” he says, “I experienced the simplicity of living in nature that I would otherwise only be able to read about.I see a lot of beauty and their sense of sharing and concern for each other.”Q12: Why did James Copeland want to study the American Indian tribe -- Tarahumaras?Q13: How did Gonzalez help James Copeland?Q14: What does the speaker say about James Copeland’s trip to the Tarahumaras village?Q15: What impresses James Copeland about the Tarahumaras tribe?Section CRecording 1What is a radical? It seems today that people are terrified of the term,minority, who are mostly wealthy white males in western society.Feminism is a perfect example of this phenomenon. The women's movement has been plagued by stereotypes, misrepresentations by the media, and accusations of man-hating and radicalism. When the basic foundation of feminism is simply that women deserve equal rights in all facets of life. When faced with the threat of being labelled radical, women back down from their worthy calls and consequently, participate in their own oppression.It has gotten to the point that many women are afraid to call themselves feminists because of a stigma attached to the word. If people refused to be controlled, and intimidated by stigmas, the stigmas lose all their power, without fear on which they feed, such stigmas can only die.To me, 【Q17】a radical is simply someone who rebels against the norm when advocates a change in the existing state of affairs. On close inspection, it becomes clear that the norm is constantly involving, and therefore, is not a constant entity. So why then, is deviation from the present situation such a threat, when the state of affairs itself is unstable and subject to relentless transformation?It all goes back to maintaining the power of those who have it and preventing the right of those who don't. In fact, when we look at the word "radical" in a historical context, nearly every figure we now hold up as a hero was considered a radical in his or her time. Radicals are people who affect change. They are the people about whom history is written. Abolitionists were radicals, civil rights activists were radicals, 【Q18】 even the founders of our country in their fight to win independence from England were radicals. Their presence in history has changed the way our society functions, mainly by shifting the balance of power that previously existed. Of course, there are some radicals who've made a negative impact on humanity, 【Q18】 but undeniably, there would simply be no progress without radicals. That been said, next time someone calls me a radical, I would accept that label with pride.Q16: What usually happens when people are accused of being radical?Q17: What is the speaker's definition of a radical?Q18: What does the speaker think of most radicals in the American history?Recording 2We are very susceptible to the influence of the people around us. For instance, you may have known somebody who has gone overseas for a year or so and has returned with an accent perhaps. We become part of our immediate environment. None of us are immune to the influences of our own world and let us not kid ourselves that we are untouched by the things and people in our life.Fred goes off to his new job at a factory. Fred takes his ten-minute coffee break, but the other workers take half an hour. Fred says, “What’s the matter with you guys?” Two weeks later, Fred is taking twenty-minute breaks. A month later, Fred takes his half hour. Fred is saying “If you can’t be them, join them. Why should I work any harder than the next guy?” The fascinating thing about being human is that generally we are unaware that there are changes taking place in our mentality. It is like returning to the city smog after some weeks in the fresh air. Only then do we realize that we’ve become accustomed to the nasty smells. Mix with critical people and we learn to criticize. Mix with happy people, and we learn about happiness. What this means is that we need to decide what we want from life and then choose our company accordingly. You may well say, "That is going to take some effort. It may not be comfortable. I may offend some of my present company." Right, but it is your life. Fred may say, "I’m always broke, frequently depressed. I’m going nowhereand I never do anything exciting." Then we discover that Fred’s best friends are always broke, frequently depressed, going nowhere and wishing that life was more exciting. This is not coincidence, nor is it our business to stand in judgement of Fred? However, if Fred ever wants to improve his quality of life, the first thing he'll need to do is recognize what has been going on all these years.It’s no surprise that doctors as a profession suffer a lot of ill health, because they spend their life around sick people. Psychiatrists have a higher incidence of suicide in their profession for related reasons. Traditionally, nine out of ten children whose parents smoke, smoke themselves. Obesity is in part an environmental problem. Successful people have successful friends, and so the story goes on.Q19 What does the speaker say about us as human beings?Q20 What does the speaker say Fred should do first to improve his quality of life?Q21 What does the speaker say about the psychiatrists?Section CLecture 3Virtually every American can recognize a dollar bill at a mere glance. Many can identify it by its sound or texture. But 【Q22】few people indeed can accurately describe the world's most powerful, important currency.The American dollar bill is colored with black ink on one side and green on the other;【Q23】 the exact composition of the paper and ink is a closely guarded government secret. Despite its weighty importance, the dollar bill actually weighs little. It requires nearly 500 bills to tip the scales at a pound. Not only is the dollar bill lightweight, but it also has a brief life span. Few dollar bills survive longer than 18 months.The word "dollar" is taken from the German word "taler," the name for the world's most important currency in the 16th century.

2020年9月六级写作和翻译
2020年9月六级写作和翻译【题目】Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the quote, “Wealth of the mind is the only true wealth.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.案例一：Nowadays, it appears to be hard -wired in the brain that owing wealth is not simply equal to having a lot of money, but a great number of people still set monetary wealth as their single way to be wealthy. However, the only true wealth, as far as I am concerned, is being wealthy in mind.No matter how rich you are or how much academic achievement you have achieved in your career or study, if you are lack of mind wealth, then you will feel insufficient. For example, when students are taught to win every competition, they will simply ignore sharing the value of being helpful with them which matters tremendously as it may help them develop a sense of empathy andunderstanding. Despite of the fact that they win the game, they lose the chance to improve their mental world and to have friends. On the contrary, for the kids who are taught the importance of making friends and collaboration, they can enjoy the time with their friends and experience the well-being of teamwork. Even they fail in the game they still harvest a lot in their mind.Although identifying the true wealth which involves several complicated candidates is far from an easy task, I am still a firm supporter for that the only true wealth is undoubted wealth of mind.案例二：There is a widespread saying that wealth of the mind is the only true wealth. Simple as the saying is, it informs us that spiritual richness should be attached great importance to.With the development of economy, people in increasing numbers become better off.However, money doesn’t necessarily ensure hap piness or well-being. Therefore, in order to gain wealth of the mind, we should lay great emphasis on meaningful things. For instance, lifelong learning, by occupying people’s time so constructively, make peoplecontented, with no time for boredom. Little by little, enriching oneself has become the source of happiness and contentment and that’s when one gains true wealth of the mind.Therefore, by some means or other we must come to know how to enrich our mind. It is necessary for us students to adopt a healthy and meaningful life style by improving ourselves constantly. Only in this way can we obtain true wealth in life.。

2020年9月英语六级真题及参考答案【完整版】四六级试卷采用多题多卷形式，大家核对答案时，请找具体选项内容，忽略套数.搜集整理了各个版本(有文字也有图片)，仅供大家参考.【网络综合版】听力: Section A Long Conversation One M: You are a professor of Physics at the University of Oxford. You are a senior advisor at the European Organization for Nuclear Research. You also seem to tour the global tirelessly, giving talks. And in addition, you have your own weekly TV show On Science. Where do you get the energy? W: Oh, well. 【Q1】I just love what I do. I am extremely fortunate to have this life, doing what I love doing. M: Professor, what exactly is your goal? Why do you do all of these? W: well, as you said, I do have different things going on. But these I think can be divided into 【Q2】two groups: the education of science, and the further understanding of science. M: Don't these two things get in the way of each other? What I mean is, doesn't giving lectures take time away from the lab? W: Not really, no. I love teaching, and I don’t mind spending more time doing that now than in the past. Also, what I will say is, that 【Q3】teaching a subject helps me comprehend it better myself. I find that it furthers my own knowledge when I have to explain something clearly, when I have to aid others understanding it, and when I have to answer questions about it. Teaching at a high level can be very stimulating for anyone, no matter how much expertise they may already have in the field they are instructing. M: Are there any scientific breakthroughs that you see on the near horizon? A significant discovery or invention we can expect soon. W: 【Q4】The world is always conducting science. And there're constantly new things being discovered. In fact, right now, we have too much data sitting in computers. For example, we have thousands of photos of planet Mars taken by telescopes that nobody has ever seen. We have them, yet nobody has had time to look at them with their own eyes, let alone analyze them. Q1: Why does the woman say she can be so energetic? Q2: What has the woman been engaged in? Q3: What does the woman say about the benefit teaching brings to her? Q4: How does the woman say new scientific breakthroughs can be made possible? Section A Conversation 2 M: Do you think dreams 【Q5】have special meanings? W: No. I don't think they do. M: I don't either, but some people do. I would say people who believe that dreams have special meanings are superstitious, especially nowadays. In the past, during the times of ancient Egypt, Greece or China, people used to believe that dreams could foresee the future. But today, with all the scientific knowledge that we have, I think it's much harder to believe in these sorts of things. W: My grandmother is superstitious, and she thinks dreams can predict the future. Once, 【Q6】she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashed. Can you guess what she did? She didn't take that flight. She didn't even bother to go to the airport the following day. Instead, she took the same flight but a week later. And everything was fine of course. No plane ever crashed. M: How funny! Did you know that flying is actually safer than any other mode of transport? It's been statistically proven. People can be so irrational sometimes. W: Yes, absolutely. But, even if we think they are ridiculous, 【Q7】emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking. M: Exactly. People do all sorts of crazy things because of their irrational feelings. But in fact, some psychologists believe that our dreams are the result of our emotions and memories from that day. I think it was Sigmund Freud who said that children's dreams were usually simple representations of their wishes, thingsthey wished would happen. 【Q8】But in adults', dreams are much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments. W: Isn't it interesting how psychologists try to understand using the scientific method something as bazaar as dreams? Psychology is like the rational study of irrational feelings. Q5: What do both speakers think of dreams? Q6: Why didn't the woman's grandmother take her scheduled flight? Q7: What does the woman say about people's emotions? Q8: What did psychologist Sigmund Freud say about adults' dreams? Section B Passage 1 While some scientists explore the surface of the Antarctic, others are learning more about a giant body of water -- four kilometers beneath the ice pack. Scientists first discovered Lake Vostok in the 1970s by using radio waves that penetrate the ice. Since then, they have used sound waves and even satellites to map this massive body of water. How does the water in Lake Vostok remained liquid beneath an ice sheet? “The thick glacier above acts like insulating blanket and keeps the water from freezing,” said Martin Siegert, a glaciologist from the university of Wales. In addition, geothermal heat from the deep within the earth may warm the hidden lake.The scientists suspect that microorganisms may be living in Lake Vostok, closed off from the outside world for more than two million years. Anything found that will be totally alien to what’s on the surface of the earth, said Siegert. Scientists are trying to find a way to drill into the ice and draw water samples without causing contamination. Again, robots might be the solution. If all goes as planned, a drill-shift robot will melt through the surface ice. When it reaches the lake, it will release another robot that can swim in the lake, take pictures and look for signs of life. The scientists hope that discoveries will shed light on life in outer space, which might exist in similar dark and airless conditions. Recently closed-up pictures of Jupiter’s moon, Europa, shows signs of water beneath the icy surface. Once tested the Antarctic, robots could be set to Europa to search for life there, too. Q9: What did the scientists first use to discover Lake Vostok in the 1970s? Q10: What did scientists think about Lake Vostok? Q11: What do the scientists hope their discoveries will do? Section B Passage 2 The idea to study the American Indian tribe – Tarahumaras, came to James Copeland in 1984 when 【Q12】he discovered that very little research had been done on their language. He contacted the tribe member through a social worker who workedwith the tribes in Mexico. At first, the tribe member named Gonzalez was very reluctant to cooperate. He told Copeland that no amount of money could buy his language. But after Copeland explained to him what he intended to do with his research and how it would benefit the Tarahumaras, Gonzalez agreed to help. 【Q13】He took Copeland to his village and served as an intermediary. Copeland says, thanks to him, the Tarahumaras understood what their mission was and started trusting us. 【Q14】Entering the world of Tarahumaras has been a laborious project for Copeland. To reach their homeland, he must strive two and half days from Huston Taxes. He loads up his vehicle with goods that the tribe’s men can’t easily get and gives the goods to them as a gesture of friendship. The Tarahumaras, who don’t believe any humiliating wealth, take the food and share among themselves. For Copeland, the experience has not only been academically satisfying but also has enriched his life in several ways. 【Q15】“I see people rejecting technology and living a very hard, traditional life, which offers me another notion about the meaning of progress in the western tradition,” he says, “I experienced the simplicity of living in nature that I would otherwise only be able to read about.I see a lot of beauty and their sense of sharing and concern for each other.” Q12: Why did James Copeland want to study the American Indian tribe -- Tarahumaras? Q13: How did Gonzalez help James Copeland? Q14: What does the speaker say about James Copeland’s trip to the Tarahumaras village?Q15: What impresses James Copeland about the Tarahumaras tribe? Section C Recording 1 Q18: What does the speaker think of most radicals in the American history? Recording 2 We are very susceptible to the influence of the people around us. For instance, you may have known somebody who has gone overseas for a year or so and has returned with an accent perhaps. We become part of our immediate environment. None of us are immune to the influences of our own world and let us not kid ourselves that we are untouched by the things and people in our life. Fred goes off to his new job at a factory.

Dream of the Red Chamber is a novel written by Cao Xueqin in the 18th century，who，based on his own hard life experi- ence，tells the tragic love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. In the book，there are about 30 major characters and over 400 minor ones， each of whom is depicted vividly with distinctive personalities. The novel narrates exhaustively the rise and fall of four aristocratic families，reflecting vari- ous crises and complicated social conflicts that lurk in the feudal society. Dream of the Red Chamber， which integrates realism and ro- manticism and generates strong artistic appeal， is universal- ly acknowledged as the greatest Chinese novel and one of the world' s literary masterpieces. 《西游记》(Journey to the West)也许是中国文学四大经典小说中最具影响力一部，当然也是在国外最广为人知一部小说.这部小说描绘了著名僧侣玄奘在三个随从陪同下穿越中国西部地区前往印度取经(Buddhistscripture) 艰难历程.虽然故事主题基于佛教，但这部小说采用了大量中国民间故事和神话素材，创造了各种栩栩如生人物和动物形象.其中最著名是孙悟空，他与各种各样妖魔作斗争故事几乎为每个中国孩子所熟知. Journey to the West is probably the most influential one of the four classic novels in the Chinese literature and surely the best-known one on foreign lands. Depicted in the novel is the hard journey that Hsuan-tsang， an eminent monk， and his three followers make across west China to India to fetch Buddhist scripture. Although the theme is based on Bud- dhism，the book employs many materials of Chinese folk tales and myths to create various vivid images of characters and animals，among which is the most famous Monkey King，whose stories of fighting genies are extremely popular among Chinese kids.作文: Directions: For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying What is worth doing is worth doing well. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words. 范文: in different stages of life， we may have diverse pursuit. 成 Some determine to pass an arduous exam whereas，others may tend to find a satisfying job. No matter what we are going to do， one thing is certain， we have to spare no effort to make the worthy task fully accomplished. As the saying goes，what is worth doing is worth doing well. Looking around，we may find many deeds to which we can apply the value relected in the saying. Take myself as an ex- ample，I made my mind to attend the postgraduateentrance exams at the beginning of last year，which for me I thought was worth doing. Once the decision had been made，I never doubted the possibility of not being able to pass the exams. I made a comprehensive plan for the whole year study and stuck to it strictly. In the end， I managed to pass the exams and became a qualified graduate student. To conclude，what is worth doing is definitely what is mean-- ingful to us and even can have a long-term influence on our life and growth. Only when we accomplish what is worth doing well can we be more likely to succeed.

To many acquaintances of hers, they think she is one of the most knowledgable and thoughtful girls they’ve ever met.

【网络综合版】听力：Section ALong Conversation OneM: You are a professor of Physics at the University of Oxford. You are a senior advisor at the European Organization for Nuclear Research. You also seem to tour the global tirelessly, giving talks. And in addition, you have your own weekly TV show On Science. Where do you get the energy?W: Oh, well. 【Q1】I just love what I do. I am extremely fortunate to have this life, doing what I love doing.M: Professor, what exactly is your goal? Why do you do all of these?W: well, as you said, I do have different things going on. But these I think can be divided into 【Q2】two groups: the education of science, and the further understanding of science.M: Don't these two things get in the way of each other? What I mean is, doesn't giving lectures take time away from the lab?W: Not really, no. I love teaching, and I don’t mind spending more time doing that now than in the past. Also, what I will say is, that 【Q3】teaching a subject helps me comprehend it better myself. I find that it furthers my own knowledge when I have to explain something clearly, when I have to aid others understanding it, and when I have to answer questions about it. Teaching at a high level can be very stimulating for anyone, no matter how much expertise they may already have in the field they are instructing.M: Are there any scientific breakthroughs that you see on the near horizon? A significant discovery or invention we can expect soon.W: 【Q4】The world is always conducting science. And there're constantly new things being discovered. In fact, right now, we have too much data sitting in computers.For example, we have thousands of photos of planet Mars taken by telescopes that nobody has ever seen. We have them, yet nobody has had time to look at them with their own eyes, let alone analyze them.Q1: Why does the woman say she can be so energetic?Q2: What has the woman been engaged in?Q3: What does the woman say about the benefit teaching brings to her?Q4: How does the woman say new scientific breakthroughs can be made possible?Section AConversation 2M: Do you think dreams 【Q5】have special meanings?W: No. I don't think they do.M: I don't either, but some people do. I would say people who believe that dreams have special meanings are superstitious, especially nowadays. In the past, during the times of ancient Egypt, Greece or China, people used to believe that dreams could foresee the future. But today, with all the scientific knowledge that we have, I think it's much harder to believe in these sorts of things.W: My grandmother is superstitious, and she thinks dreams can predict the future. Once, 【Q6】she dreamed that the flight she was due to take the following day crashed.Can you guess what she did? She didn't take that flight. She didn't even bother to go to the airport the following day. Instead, she took the same flight but a week later. And everything was fine of course. No plane ever crashed.M: How funny! Did you know that flying is actually safer than any other mode of transport? It's been statistically proven. People can be so irrational sometimes.W: Yes, absolutely. But, even if we think they are ridiculous, 【Q7】emotions can be just as powerful as rational thinking.M: Exactly. People do all sorts of crazy things because of their irrational feelings. But in fact, some psychologists believe that our dreams are the result of our emotions and memories from that day. I think it was Sigmund Freud who said that children's dreams were usually simple representations of their wishes, thingsthey wished would happen. 【Q8】But in adults', dreams are much more complicated reflections of their more sophisticated sentiments.W: Isn't it interesting how psychologists try to understand using the scientific method something as bazaar as dreams? Psychology is like the rational study of irrational feelings.Q5: What do both speakers think of dreams?Q6: Why didn't the woman's grandmother take her scheduled flight?Q7: What does the woman say about people's emotions?Q8: What did psychologist Sigmund Freud say about adults' dreams?Section BPassage 1While some scientists explore the surface of the Antarctic, others are learning more about a giant body of water -- four kilometers beneath the ice pack. Scientists first discovered Lake Vostok in the 1970s by using radio waves that penetrate the ice. Since then, they have used sound waves and even satellites to map this massive body of water. How does the water in Lake Vostok remained liquid beneath an ice sheet? “The thick glacier above acts like insulating blanket and keeps the water from freezing,” said Martin Siegert, a glaciologist from the university of Wales. In addition, geothermal heat from the deep within the earth may warm the hidden lake.The scientists suspect that microorganisms may be living in Lake Vostok, closed or more than two million years. Anything found that off from the outside world f s on the surface of the earth, said Siegert. Scientists ’will be totally alien to what are trying to find a way to drill into the ice and draw water samples without causing ht be the solution. If all goes as planned, a contamination. Again, robots mig shift robot will melt through the surface ice. When it reaches the lake, it -drill will release another robot that can swim in the lake, take pictures and look for ries will shed light on life in outer signs of life. The scientists hope that discove up -space, which might exist in similar dark and airless conditions. Recently closed s moon, Europa, shows signs of water beneath the icy surface. ’pictures of Jupiter ropa to search for life there, Once tested the Antarctic, robots could be set to Eu too.Q9: What did the scientists first use to discover Lake Vostok in the 1970s? Q10: What did scientists think about Lake Vostok?Q11: What do the scientists hope their discoveries will do?Section BPassage 2The idea to study the American Indian tribe – Tarahumaras, came to James Copeland in 1984 when 【Q12】he discovered that very little research had been done on their language. He contacted the tribe member through a social worker who workedwith the tribes in Mexico. At first, the tribe member named Gonzalez was very reluctant to cooperate. He told Copeland that no amount of money could buy his language. But after Copeland explained to him what he intended to do with his research and how it would benefit the Tarahumaras, Gonzalez agreed to help. 【Q13】He took Copeland to his village and served as an intermediary. Copeland says, thanks to him, the Tarahumaras understood what their mission was and started trusting us. 【Q14】Entering the world of Tarahumaras has been a laborious project for Copeland.To reach their homeland, he must strive two and half days from Huston Taxes. He loads up his vehicle with goods that the tribe’s men can’t easily get and gives the goods to them as a gesture of friendship. The Tarahumaras, who don’t believe any humiliating wealth, take the food and share among themselves. For Copeland, the experience has not only been academically satisfying but also has enriched his life in several ways. 【Q15】“I see people rejecting technology and living a very hard, traditional life, which offers me another notion about the meaning of progress in the western tradition,” he says, “I experienced the simplicity of living in nature that I would otherwise only be able to read about.I see a lot of beauty and their sense of sharing and concern for each other.”Q12: Why did James Copeland want to study the American Indian tribe -- Tarahumaras?Q13: How did Gonzalez help James Copeland?Q14: What does the speaker say about James Copeland’s trip to the Tarahumaras village?Q15: What impresses James Copeland about the Tarahumaras tribe?Section CRecording 1What is a radical? It seems today that people are terrified of the term,minority, who are mostly wealthy white males in western society.Feminism is a perfect example of this phenomenon. The women's movement has been plagued by stereotypes, misrepresentations by the media, and accusations of man-hating and radicalism. When the basic foundation of feminism is simply that women deserve equal rights in all facets of life. When faced with the threat of being labelled radical, women back down from their worthy calls and consequently, participate in their own oppression.It has gotten to the point that many women are afraid to call themselves feminists because of a stigma attached to the word. If people refused to be controlled, and intimidated by stigmas, the stigmas lose all their power, without fear on which they feed, such stigmas can only die.To me, 【Q17】a radical is simply someone who rebels against the norm when advocates a change in the existing state of affairs. On close inspection, it becomes clear that the norm is constantly involving, and therefore, is not a constant entity. So why then, is deviation from the present situation such a threat, when the state of affairs itself is unstable and subject to relentless transformation?It all goes back to maintaining the power of those who have it and preventing the right of those who don't. In fact, when we look at the word "radical" in a historical context, nearly every figure we now hold up as a hero was considered a radical in his or her time. Radicals are people who affect change. They are the people about whom history is written. Abolitionists were radicals, civil rights activists were radicals, 【Q18】 even the founders of our country in their fight to win independence from England were radicals. Their presence in history has changed the way our society functions, mainly by shifting the balance of power that previously existed. Of course, there are some radicals who've made a negative impact on humanity, 【Q18】 but undeniably, there would simply be no progress without radicals. That been said, next time someone calls me a radical, I would accept that label with pride.Q16: What usually happens when people are accused of being radical?Q17: What is the speaker's definition of a radical?Q18: What does the speaker think of most radicals in the American history?Recording 2We are very susceptible to the influence of the people around us. For instance, you may have known somebody who has gone overseas for a year or so and has returned with an accent perhaps. We become part of our immediate environment. None of us are immune to the influences of our own world and let us not kid ourselves that we are untouched by the things and people in our life.Fred goes off to his new job at a factory. Fred takes his ten-minute coffee break, but the other workers take half an hour. Fred says, “What’s the matter with you guys?” Two weeks later, Fred is taking twenty-minute breaks. A month later, Fred takes his half hour. Fred is saying “If you can’t be them, join them. Why should I work any harder than the next guy?” The fascinating thing about being human is that generally we are unaware that there are changes taking place in our mentality. It is like returning to the city smog after some weeks in the fresh air. Only then do we realize that we’ve become accustomed to the nasty smells. Mix with critical people and we learn to criticize. Mix with happy people, and we learn about happiness. What this means is that we need to decide what we want from life and then choose our company accordingly. You may well say, "That is going to take some effort. It may not be comfortable. I may offend some of my present company." Right, but it is your life. Fred may say, "I’m always broke, frequently depressed. I’m going nowhereand I never do anything exciting." Then we discover that Fred’s best friends are always broke, frequently depressed, going nowhere and wishing that life was more exciting. This is not coincidence, nor is it our business to stand in judgement of Fred? However, if Fred ever wants to improve his quality of life, the first thing he'll need to do is recognize what has been going on all these years.It’s no surprise that doctors as a profession suffer a lot of ill health, because they spend their life around sick people. Psychiatrists have a higher incidence of suicide in their profession for related reasons. Traditionally, nine out of ten children whose parents smoke, smoke themselves. Obesity is in part an environmental problem. Successful people have successful friends, and so the story goes on.Q19 What does the speaker say about us as human beings?Q20 What does the speaker say Fred should do first to improve his quality of life?Q21 What does the speaker say about the psychiatrists?Section CLecture 3Virtually every American can recognize a dollar bill at a mere glance. Many can identify it by its sound or texture. But 【Q22】few people indeed can accurately describe the world's most powerful, important currency.The American dollar bill is colored with black ink on one side and green on the other;【Q23】 the exact composition of the paper and ink is a closely guarded government secret. Despite its weighty importance, the dollar bill actually weighs little. It requires nearly 500 bills to tip the scales at a pound. Not only is the dollar bill lightweight, but it also has a brief life span. Few dollar bills survive longer than 18 months.The word "dollar" is taken from the German word "taler," the name for the world's most important currency in the 16th century. The taler was a silver coin first minted in 1518 under the reign of Charles V, Emperor of Germany.The concept of paper money is a relatively recent innovation in the history of American currency. When the Constitution was signed, people had little regard for paper money because of its steadily decreasing value during the colonial era.【Q24】Because of this lack of faith, the new American government minted only coins for common currency. Interest-bearing bank notes were issued at the same time, but their purpose was limited to providing money for urgent government crises, such as American involvement in the War of 1812.The first noninterest-bearing paper currency was authorized by Congress in 1862, at the height of the Civil War. At this point, citizens' old fears of devalued paper currency had calmed, and the dollar bill was born. The new green colored paper money quickly earned the nickname "greenback."Today, the American dollar bill is a product of the Federal Reserve and is issued from the twelve Federal Reserve banks around the United States. The government keeps a steady supply of approximately two billion bills in circulation at all times.Controversy continues to surround the true value of the dollar bill.【Q25】American history has seen generations of politicians argue in favor of a gold standard for American currency. However, for the present, the American dollar bill holds the value that is printed on it, and little more. The only other guarantee on the bill is a Federal Reserve pledge of as a confirmation in the form of government securities.Q22: What does the speaker say about the American dollar bill?Q23: What does the speaker say about the exact composition of the American dollar bill?Q24: Why did the new American government mint only coins for common currency?Q25: What have generations of American politicians argued for?参考答案1.A)She can devote all her life to pursing her passion.2.D)Science education and scientific research.3.A)A better understanding of a subject.4.B)By making full use of the existing data.5. B) They have no special meanings.6. C) She dreamed of a plane crash.7. D) They can have an impact as great as rational thinking8. C) They reflect their complicated emotions.9. A) Radio waves.10.

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying "Beauty of the soul is the essential beauty.”You should write at least 1 50 words but no more than 200 words.
In modern society, external beauty is more favorable since people with attractive appearance get more implicit benefits, which has triggered a controversy as to the importance of inner beauty and outer beauty. People from different walks of life hold various opinions on this topic, among which therc gocs a well-known saying: "Beauty of the soul is the. essential beauty'", intending to encourage people to pursue internal beauty rather than going blindly after physical appearance. I strongly support this idea. There are two contributory reasons for my decision. Above all, it can benefit our society in that it is the good qualities like integrity, honesty and warm hcart, which inncr bcauty boasts, that facilitatc the development of the entire society. Moreover, everyone should try to be kind and understanding. Without a kind heart, people will grow indifferent and gradually they will make no contribution both to their family and to the society. They will probably lead an empty life too. From my perspective, it is crucial that modern education should encourage people to look highly of inner beauty instead of superficial attractiveness. Also, it is high time that people understood the real meaning and value of being beautiful.
Only in this way can they achieve a balanced and meaningful life.

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying“What is worth doing is worth doing well.”You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
There is a life attitude popular in the current world, which encourages us to do what we love. However, the reality is not always what we expected it to be. And I believe the best life attitude is to love what we do, just as the saying goes, "What is worth doing is worth doing well". First of all, everything we do has its own value. If you think something you are doing is useless, it is just that you haven't recognized its significance. Some things, trivial and unimportant as they may seem, can play a big role somewhere you haven't yet noticed, just like the butterfly effects. So, we need to do our best in everything we do. Only in this way, will no efforls be wasted. Secondly, finishing all tasks at our best brings ourselves extra happincss. As we put our mind into what we are doing, we can find enjoyment and gain a sense of flillment. So, doing what we are doing well can light up our own lives. "What is worth doing is worth doing well" is a wise quotation. It inspires us to have a positive atitude towards life. We should all bear it in mind. Love what we do and reach our full potential to make the best of our lives.

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the saying Wealth of the mind is the only true wealth. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
"Wealth of the mind is the only true wealth." The enlightenment of this saying is not lost in our era as eagerness to get rich and remain so while ignoring the true meaning of wealth seems rife. The implication of this message is that mental wealth is not only a type of wealth but also the only true one.
Some claim that the nature of wealth is money related, not mind related. They focus on tangible wealth which people pay so much attention to that they lose sight of intangible wealth. Some may argue that mental wealth is not as important as financial wealth. While this view might hold a bit of truth, wealth that can be lost is never the true wealth, and it is only wealth of the mind that can actually be kept forever. You spend it, but at the same time you still own it. Since wealth of the mind can not only be gained as wealth, but also be kept while being spent, what else can be more valuable than wealth of the mind? From my perspective, it is crucial that we should regard wealth of the mind as a type of wealth. Also, it is high time that we realized they can be ours forever. Only by doing so can we achieve greater success.。
