  作文标准版

  The Impact of the Internet on Interpersonal Communication

  As is described in the picture, a father asks her daughter how her school today goes on. Instead of answering directly, the daughter tells her father to read her blog. It is common that youngsters nowadays incline to communicate with others on internet increasingly, and lack communication with people around them. With the development of Internet, it has influenced our society to a large extent, especially interpersonal communication.

  To begin with, we can communicate with others anytime via internet. Otherwise, we would have to arrange our schedules strictly in advance. Also, interpersonal communication through the internet is not restricted by space. For example, in most multinational corporations, instant messages and video conferences help colleagues solve problems timely and efficiently. Last but not least, the internet can greatly speed up our interpersonal communication. Whereas, there are also disadvantages that the internet brings to us. More and more people complained that they have lost face-to-face communicating skills. As a result, people become more and more indifferent to each other in real life. Some netizens who are immersed in virtual world even have difficulty in making friends in reality。

  In conclusion, communication through the internet could bring us both convenience and inconvenience. We should strike a balance between them and make the best of the internet。

  【解析】

  这次的六级写作是请考生谈谈网络对人际交流的影响。这个话题本身已是日常生活的热点,考生并不陌生,有话可说。

  文章的展开还是同过去的议论文写作一致。仍然可以用引引入、阐释有何影响和自己的观点这样的三段式进行写作。在行文时,注意文章的层次和逻辑梳理,在谈具体影响时,可适当进行对比论证,论证网络出现和没有网络时,人际交流的差异,也可进行结合自身经历进行举例论证。

  本篇范文在句式上,长短搭配,形式多变。从句、非谓语动词等多种表达方式,值得借鉴。同时,用词同样注意多样化,对网络相关词汇的多种表达(web, cyber, instant message, video conference等),考生同样应在平时注意归类、积累。

  The Impact of the Internet on Interpersonal Communication

  Today I saw an interesting cartoon, in which a father asked his daughter about her school performance of the day, and the daughter replied that he could go to her blog to check it. This small cartoon indicates a big change in our life, especially the way people communicate。

  Internet enables people to break though the limitations of distance, strengthening social network. Unlike post offices, Internet service with its convenience helps people engage and converse real time with their parents, soul mates, friends though emails, IRC, micro blog anytime, anywhere with a network terminal, without suffering the long and painful wait for a reply。

  Besides, such online communities as Twitter, Facebook are well under way and becoming the most dominating platforms for on-line social activities. These communities offer great opportunities for us to follow and interact with those we like and even those celebrities. It is also a platform for us to share and update information of each other, and learn the outside world。

  Internet today and tomorrow is a virtual space where we live, where we learn, where we speak, and where we communicate。

  【解析】

  今年的六级作文依旧延续了四六级的传统,考查“现象类”话题,要求根据漫画,发表对于“The impact of the internet on interpersonal communication”的观点。近年的六级作文题目,已经不再局限于传统的议论文考察模式,即要求考生给出非此即彼或既此既彼的观点、而是偏向于启发考生自己去思考,结合自己的生活经历以及对事物的理解,对话题中的现象进行深入的探讨,给出事实支撑。

  【解析】

  本次六级的快速阅读文章出自2009年10月16日的《每日野兽——新闻周刊》,与四级文章的出处一样,在这里要提醒考生们平日里加强此类英美报刊的阅读。

  本文属于教育类文章。

  文章开头以Hartwick 学院为例,指出许多有创新意识的大学都将学制由四年改为三年的现象。在承认美国具有全世界最好的大学,这些学校吸引了众多聪明的学生后,作者话锋一转,指出美国高等教育存在的一些问题,包括:学校学年的一成不变,设备资源的闲置浪费,终身职位以及反年龄歧视法造成的教务人员冗余以及对自由思想的压制,学生承担不起高额的学费等等。

  之后,作者指出正是由于以上的这些问题,许多学校才会进行学制改革并且描述了Hartwick, Judson College等学校在缩短学制后课程方面的一些改革和做法。随后作者指出缩短学制的一些弊端:学生缺少时间进行思考,缺少时间参加课外活动或者出国留学(微博),威胁学校的核心课程体系等。

  最后,作者指出实行三年制学制对大多数学校来说都不是易事。但是要比让议会提供资金帮助,让立法人员要求更多的政府帮助,或是要求学生支付更高的学费来得容易。

  本次快速阅读题目难度适中,基本上都是细节辨认题,考生做题的时候可根据题干的关键词:人名,学校名等进行快速定位,仔细判断。需要注意的是,考生在做本篇快速阅读的时候最好快速通读一下全文,把握一下文章的大致结构,会更有利于解答问题。

  Conversation 1

  W: One of the most interesting experiments with dolphins must be one done by Doctor Jarvis Bastian. What he tried to do was to teach a male dolphin called Bass and a female called Doris to communicate with each other across a solid barrier。

  M: So how did he do it exactly?

  W: Well, first of all, he kept the two dolphins together in the same tank and taught them to press levers whenever they saw a light. The levers were fitted to the side of the tank next to each other. If the light flashed on and off several times, the dolphins were supposed to press the left-hand lever followed by the right-hand one. If the light was kept steady, the dolphins were supposed to press the levers in reverse order. Whenever they responded correctly, they were rewarded with fish。

  M: Sounds terribly complicated。

  W: Well, that was the first stage. In the second stage, Doctor

Bastian separated the dolphins into two tanks. They could still hear one another, but they couldn’t actually see each other. The levers and light were set up in exactly the same way except that this time it was only Doris who could see the light indicating which lever to press first. But in order to get their fish, both dolphins had to press the levers in the correct order. This meant of course that Doris had to tell Bass whether it was a flashing light or whether it was a steady light。

  M: So did it work?

  W: Well, amazingly enough, the dolphins achieved a 100 % success rate。

  Questions 19-21 are based on the conversation you have just heard。

  Q19. What is the purpose of Doctor Jarvis Bastian’s experiment?

  Q20. What were the dolphins supposed to do when they saw a steady light?

  Q21. How did the second stage of the experiment differ from the first stage?

  答案:

  19. D) to see if dolphins can communicate with each other。

  20. A) Press the right-hand lever first。

  21. C) Only one dolphin was able to see the light。

  Conversation 2

  W: This week’s program Up Your Street takes you to Harrogate, a small town in Yorkshire. Harrogate became a fashionable resort during Victorian times, when people came to take a bath in the mineral waters. Today, few people come to visit the town for its mineral waters. Instead, Harrogate has become a popular town for people to retire to. Its clean air, attractive parks, and the absence of any industry, make this an ideal spot for people looking for a quiet life. Now, to tell us more about Harrogate, I have with meTom Percival, President of the Chamber of Commerce. Tom, one of the things visitor notices about Harrogate is the large area of open park land right down into the middle of the town. Can you tell us more about it?

  M: Yes, certainly. The area is called the Stray。

  W: Why the Stray?

  M: It’s called that because in the old days, people let their cattle stray on the area, which was common land。

  W: Oh, I see。

  M: Then, we’ve changes in farming and in land ownership. The Stray became part of the land owned by Harrogate。

  W: And is it protected?

  M: Oh, yes, indeed. As a special law, no one can build anything on the stray. It’s protected forever。

  W: So it will always be park land?

  M: That’s right. As you can see, some of the Stray is used for sports fields。

  W: I believe it looks lovely in the spring。

  M: Yes, it does. There’re spring flowers on the old trees, and people visit the town just to see the flowers。

  Question 22-25 are based on the conversation you have just heard。

  Q22. Where does this conversation most probably take place?

  Q23. What do we learn about modern Harrogate?

  Q24. What does the man say about the area called the Stray?

  Q25. What attracts people most in the Stray during the spring time?

  答案:

  22. B) In a resort town。

  23. D) It is an ideal place for people to retire to。

  24. D) It is protected as parkland by a special law。

  25. C) The beautiful flowers。

  【解析】

  这段长对话是对Harrogate这个旅游小镇的介绍,谈到其如何得名,如何变迁,以及如何受到政府的保护。由此可见,这段对话最有可能发生在一个旅游城镇。这段对话稍微难一点的地方在于几个单词,一个是地名Harrogate,另一个是Stray,以及头衔President of the Chamber of Commerce。解决这些难点也很容易,因为Harrogate这个地名和头衔不是考察点,考生可直接忽略。另外关于Stray,考生开始不懂没关系,要带着这个疑问去注意听原文,对话中随后就给出了明确解释,所以考生也会获得解答。

  需要提醒考生的是,虽然考试中我们可以忽略一些人名,地名或者无关紧要的细节,这也是为了一时的应试而迫不得已。在平时练习中,还是建议广大考生多积累这些人文及百科知识,包括一些人名和地名。积累的多了,以后在任何场合听起来就不会犯难了。

  Section B

  Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre。

  Passage One

  Russell Fazio, an Ohio State psychology professor who has studied interracial roommates there and at Indiana University, discovered an intriguing academic effect. In a study analyzing data on thousands of Ohio State freshmen who lived in dorms, he found that black freshmen who came to college with high standardized test scores earned better grades if they had a white roommate — even if the roommate’s test scores were low. The roommate’s race had no effect on the grades of white students or low-scoring black students. Perhaps, the study speculated, having a white roommate helps academically prepared black students adjust to a predominantly white university。

  That same study found that randomly assigned interracial roommates at Ohio State broke up before the end of the quarter about twice as often as same-race roommates。

  Because interracial roommate relationships are often problematic, Dr. Fazio said, many students would like to move out, but university housing policies may make it hard to leave。

  “At Indiana University, where housing was not so tight, more interracial roommates split up,” he said. “Here at Ohio State, where housing was tight, they were told to work it out. The most interesting thing we found was that if the relationship managed to continue for just 10 weeks, we could see an improvement in racial attitudes。”

  Dr. Fazio’s Indiana study found that three times as many randomly assigned interracial roommates were no longer living together at the end of the semester, compared with white roommates. The interracial roommates spent less time together, andhad fewer joint activities than the white pairs。

  Question 26-29

  26. What do we know about Russell Fazio ?

  27. Who benefited from living with a white roommate according to Fazio’s study?

  28. What did the study find about randomly assigned interracial roommates at Ohio State University?

  29. What did Dr. Fazio find interesting about interracial roommates who had lived together for 10 weeks?

  答案:

  26, C. He specialized in interpersonal relationship。

  27. D. Black freshman with high standardized scores

  28, C. They broke up more often than same-race roommates

  29, C. The racial attitudes improved。

  【解析】:本文节选自2009年7月的《纽约时报》,原文标题为Interracial Roommates Can Reduce Prejudice。文章属于社会类话题,大意为俄亥俄州立大学的一位名为Russell Fazio的心理学教授研究不同人种混居的有趣现象以及结论。无独有偶,2011年6月四级真题阅读理解Section B的Passage 1也选用了相同的话题,大家平时在备考中要对真题重视起来哦!

  Passage two

  In a small laboratory at the Medical University of South Carolina, Dr. Vladimir Mironov has been working for a decade to grow meat. A developmental biologist and tissue engineer, Dr. Mironov, is one of only a few scientists worldwide involved in bioengineering 'cultured' meat。

  It's a product he believes could help solve future global food crises resulting from shrinking amounts of land available for growing meat the old-fashioned way。

  “Growth of cultured meat is also under way in the Netherlands”, Mironov told Reuters in an interview, “but in the United States, it is science in search of funding and demand。”

  The new National Institute of Food and Agriculture won't fund it, the National Institutes of Health won't fund it, and the NASA funded it only briefly, Mironov said。

  "It's classic disruptive technology," Mironov said. "Bringing any new technology on the market, on average, costs $1 billion. We don't even have $1 million."

  Director of the Advanced Tissue Biofabrication Center in the Department of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Biology at the medical university, Mironov now primarily conducts research on tissue engineering, or growing, of human organs。

  "There's an unpleasant factor when people find out meat is grown in a lab. They don't like to associate technology with food," said Nicholas Genovese, a visiting scholar in cancer cell biology。

  "But there are a lot of products that we eat today that are considered natural that are produced in a similar manner," Genovese said。

  30. What does Dr. Mironov think of bioengineering cultured meat?

  31. What does Dr. Mironov say about the funding for their research?

  32. What does Nicholas Genovese say about a lot of products we eat today?

  答案:

  30, A. It will help solve the global food crisis。

  31, D. It is still far from being sufficient。

  32, D. They are not as natural as we believed。

  【解析】

  这是路透社2011年初的一篇报道,题目为“South Carolina scientist works to grow meat in lab”。本文为食品科技类题材。大意为生物工程技术应用在实验室生产肉,可改变传统肉类获得方式,解决将来的食物危机,不过还需资金支持,同时人们还难以完全接受这种方式。

  Passage three

  Bernard Jackson is a free man today, but he has many bitter memories. Jackson spent five years in prison after a jury wrongly convicted him of raping two women. At Jackson's trial, although two witnesses testified that Jackson was with them in another location at the times of the crimes, he was convicted anyway. Why? The jury believed the testimony of the two victims, who positively identified Jackson as the man who has attacked them. The court eventually freed Jackson after the police found the man who had really committed the crimes. Jackson was similar in appearance to the guilty man. The two women has made a mistake in identity. As a result, Jackson has lost five years of his life。

  The two women in this case were eyewitnesses. They clearly saw the man who attacked them, yet they mistakenly identified an innocent person. Similar incidents have occurred before. Eyewitnesses to other crimes have identified the wrong person in a police lineup or in photographs。

  Many factors influence the accuracy of eyewitness testimony. For instance, witnesses sometimes see photographs of several suspects before they try to identify the person they saw in a lineup of people. They can become confused by seeing many photographs or similar faces. The number of people in the lineup, and whether it is a live lineup or a photograph, may also affect a witness's decision. People sometimes have difficulty identifying people of other races. The questions the police ask witnesses also have an effect on them。

  Question 33: What do we learn about Bernard Jackson?

  Question 34: What led directly to Jackson’s sentence?

  Question 35: What lesson do we learn from Jackson’s case?

  答案:

  33, A. He was wrongly imprisoned

  34, A. The two victims’ identification

  35, B. Many factors influence the accuracy of witness testimony。

  【解析】

  本篇文章讲述了Jackson因为被目击证人误认而被判刑,虽然最后洗清了罪名,但是却留下了惨痛的记忆。文章接着论述了为什么会出现这样的问题。可能是因为被害者对犯罪嫌疑人产生的混淆的记忆,或者在指认犯罪嫌疑人的过程中出现了不确定的情况。

  虽然总体来说这篇文章难度不大,但是因为涉及专业知识,有一些词汇可能会成为考生的障碍。例如:testimony: 证人证言;witness: 目击证人;jury: 陪审团;sentence :刑期。如果考生平时能对这些单词有所接触,这篇文章在理解上就不会出现太大的问题。

  Section C

  Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written。

  答案:

  36. slight

  37. official

  38. shrinking

  39. plunge

  40. decli
ne

  41. primary

  42. heads

  43. Poverty

  44. Hampered by higher taxes and weak demand for its exports, Mexico's economy is seen only partially recovering this year。

  45. Mexico has historically had high drop-out rates as poor families pull kids out of school to help put food on the table,

  46. The nation's drop-out problem is just the latest bad news for the long-term competitiveness of the Mexican economy。

  【解析】本篇文章谈论的是墨西哥失学率问题。文章先开篇阐述了墨西哥失学情况的现状,然后谈到这一现状的原因和所造成的严重后果。文中国家有关的Mexico、Mexican、Chile等部分考生可能不熟悉,而造成听力困扰,但这些实际并非考点,切记死盯部分词汇不放,而影响全篇理解。

  最后,文中生词不多,实际内容对于喜欢阅读报刊杂志、关心时事热点的考生而言,能够根据日常经验有所预判。这就提醒考生,听力同样也需要平时多多进行报刊阅读。

  本文出自2010年11月Scientific American Magazine. 文章主要阐述倾听音乐对于大脑有好处,可以提高人的学习能力。因而作者呼吁,学校不应取消音乐课。

  虽然文章为科技文,且开头出现了许多专业术语,但内容并不生僻。所以,同学们千万不要被开头一长串的专业术语吓倒,保持良好心态,不要放弃。完形填空考查重点还在于对上下文的理解;动词与介词的搭配;形似词、同义词词义、用法的辨析,如62题中考(微博)查note, notice, notion, notification 之间的差异,词形相似,但意思截然不同。同学在平时背诵单词时,一定要多加总结归纳。

  Part VI Translation (5 minutes)

  Directions: Complete the sentences by translating into English the Chinese given in brackets. Please write your translation on Answer Sheet 2.

  82. I think that the meal is well worth $80 without a discount (没有折扣的情况下值80美元)。

  【点评】well worth,“值”,后跟动名词或名词;discount 折扣。

  83. Facing the fierce competition from other companies (面对来自其他公司的激烈竞争), the automobile manufacturer is considering launching a promotion campaign。

  【点评】横线处要填的是一个非谓语从句,根据句意可知前后主语都是the automobile manufacturer,因此用现在分词形式。

  84. As far as hobbies are concerned, Jane and her sister nearly have nothing in common / hardly have anything in common (几乎没有什么共同之处)。

  【点评】have something in common有共同点,注意表示否定时副词的使用。

  85. Only after many failures have I realized that I cannot succeed with luck merely (我才认识到仅凭运气是不能成功的)。

  【点评】本题考查only位于句首的倒装。这里强调的是过去的事情对现在造成的影响“不能成功”,因此应用现在完成时态。

  86. But for the survival instinct which nearly all creatures have, more species would have been extinct from the earth (更多的物种就可能已经在地球上灭绝了)。

  【点评】but for,“要不是,如果没有”,这里考查虚拟语气,后面应该用would + have done的形式,强调这种非真实的虚拟对将来可能发生的情况的影响。
