7、pressure of finding a job 不妨改为 the enormous pressure of getting employed。从整体看，本篇文章不错，值得参考借鉴，不过用于方面还有待提高。高分版Certificate crazeRecently the phenomenon of certificate craze has become a big concern of the public.

11、s ability. Being crazy in getting certifications blindly is nothing but wasting time. To conclude, we should focus on improving our ability but not merely getting a certificate.文章点评：本次六级作文探讨的是考生比较熟悉的话题高校考证书热；本次试题延续了以往的考试风格，关注点仍然放在与学生息息相关的话题上；从选题角度来说，考生还是比较好把握的。需要注意的是由于第二部分可能需要列出多点原因，考生在该部分需要注意论述的条理性

12、；此外，在保证句法通顺的前提下，尽可能做到表达的多样化。首先，在考生拿到题目的时候，应该先认真审题，心里大致对接下来文章的安排有一个底。提起证书热的话，很多考生都会联想到就业压力，学校给予的压力以及学生自身的需求；因此，全文可做如下安排；第一段，考生可以整体阐述一下该话题，陈述下目前存在的考证热现象；第二段，考生可以对考证热背后存在的各种各样的目的进行拓展；比如说由于日益严重的就业压力，以及有的学校时不时给学生灌输的压力；或者是学生自身从身边感受到的一些压力，都可能导致考证热的产生。第三段要求考生对于该现象给出自己的理解，考生应在这里持一种客观的态度。因为考证本身并不是一种错误，但是考生应当注

13、意从题目“考证热”出发，重点放在“热”字上，对这一现象做出最理性的评述。综合来讲，本篇文章观点明确，思路清晰；在第二段给出的例证具有代表性；此外，文章中有用到不少的亮点词汇；唯一比较遗憾的是，由于时间和篇幅的限制，论证的展开还未完全挖掘出来，但在如此有限的条件下，可以称得上佳作了。外教版The job market today is increasingly sophisticated, requiring workers to have specialized knowledge in their fields. As a result, becoming certified is a tr

14、end among todays job seeking youth.

17、future opportunities.文章点评：1. 逻辑结构上，本文大体也是按照“提出问题（考证热的现象）”“分析问题（背后的动力）”和“解决问题（个人的观点）”的结构展开。2. 本文的亮点非常多，用语非常地道，用英语思维催动出来的英语文章，才是真正的极品。相比用中式思维催动出来的英语文章，这篇文章是很美味的，强烈建议大家背诵下来。大家记得天龙八部吗？鸠摩智用小无相功催动出的招式是敌不过藏经阁里的扫地和尚的。总之，我们大可不必刻意使用难词难句，其实表意明确，用语地道的文章，就肯定可以拿到高分。Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scan

18、ning)1. B. The low graduation rates of minority students解析： 全文讲的是少数民族学生的毕业率变低的问题，这也是作者对于美国高等教育所担心的一个问题，关键词在low graduation rate，其他的proportion，conflict，和academic performance都没有涉及，故选B。2. D. its increased enrollment of minority students解析：答案在整篇文章第一句话，Bowdoin College的校长引以为豪的是扩招了很多少数民族学生。而不是学校排名，文化遗产继承，C选

19、项高毕业率与原文不符，故选D。3. B. The rising generation will be less well educated than the previous one.解析：答案定位在第四段。原文内容是： , there is the risk that the rising generation will be less well educated than the previous one. 而D选项说美国将会失去其在高等教育方面的竞争优势，这一点原味并未提及，原文只是说美国的低毕业率问题。4. C. Fifiteen percent解析：答案在原文第四段最后一句话。onl

20、y 15% of African-Americans did so as well.5. B. they recruit the best students解析：尽管C选项和D选项是私立高校的措施，但哈佛，耶鲁等名校白种人和黑种人毕业率没有差别的原因却在于他们在选拨方面做的出色。根据原文But may have more to do with their ability to select the best students.可知本题答案选B。6. A.

23、ges here to copy. Here is the receipt.W: I'm sorry, sir. But we're a little behind. Could you come back in a few minutes?Q: What does the woman mean?答案：C. She has not got the man's copies ready.解析：本题考的是文化场景，出现了copy 等词，还是比较基础的。原文中男生想出示收据来拿复印材料，然后女生说“ we're a little behind. ”（我们动作稍落后）意

24、思就是还没复印好。12.W: I hope you're not too put out with me for the delay. I have to stop by friends' home to pick up a book on my way here.M: Well, that's not a big deal. But you might at least phone if you know you're going to keep someone waiting.Q: What do we learn about the woman from

25、the conversation?答案：B. She was late for the appointment.解析：生活类场景题。注意对"be put out with sb"（对生气）的理解；文中女生首先对自己的迟到表示歉意并解释原因；男生说不是大问题，但是你至少得打个电话给我。因此，我们知道女生迟到了。13.W: Mark is the best candidate for chairman of the student union, isn't he?M: Well, that guy won't be able to win the electio

26、n unless he gets some majority vote from women students. And I'm not sure about that.Q: What does the man mean?答案：C. It won't be easy for Mark to win the election.解析：对话属于学习类场景，出现了majority , student union,和 candidate等相关词汇。考点在于对话中的肯定与否定类，即前面一个人提出观点，后面一个人采取取非的态度；文中第一人说Mark是学生会主席的不二人选，而第二人则说除非Ma

27、rk获得了大多数女生的选票，否则是赢不了的，因此还不能确定。14.M: Sorry to have kept you waiting, Madam. I've located your luggage.It was left behind in Paris and won't arrive until later this evening.W: Oh, I can't believe this. Have it deliver to my hotel then , I guess.Q: What happened to the woman's luggage?答

28、案：A. It failed to arrive at its destination in time.解析：考短对话常考场景，旅游场景，其中hotel , luggage 等单词可帮助学生直接定位；第一个人（估计是工作人员）对旅客道歉说行李被落在巴黎了，要到深夜才能送到。旅客说这让让她难以置信，然后要求就把行李送到宾馆。由此可知，女士的行李还没有到达目的地。15.W: I don't think we have enough information for our presentation, but we have to give it tomorrow. There doesn&#

29、39;t seem to be much we can do about it.M: Yeah, at this point we 'll have to make do with what we've got.Q: What does the man suggest they do?答案：A. Just make use of whatever information is available.解析：关键词presentation, 为校园场景。考点为第二人建议题，"at this point, well have to do"明确表示建议，将建议后的内容

30、听出来就可以了。这里“we 'll have to make do with what we've got.”意思是“我们要善加利用手上已有的东西”。16.M: I am taking this great course-Psychology of Language, it's really interesting. Since you are a psychology major, you should sign up for it.W: Actually I tried to do that, but they told me I have to take lang

31、uage studies first.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?答案：D. The woman isnt qualified to take the course the man mentioned.解析：关键词course，为校园场景。16题为典型的第二人but转折后出考题，音频中出现的psychology其实不需要知道意思，前面已经有course来解释了。这和六级一贯的难词前后有对其的解释的原则一致，并且psychology是六级学生应该掌握的词汇。 文中男生向女生推荐语言心理学这门课，女生说她有尝试报名，但是在参加课程前得先进行语

32、言学习，因此推出，女生还没有资格参加该课程。17.W: Can you believe the way Larry was talking to his roommate? No wonder they don't get along.M: Well, maybe Larry was just reacting to something his roommate said. There are two sides to every story you know.Q: What does the man imply about Larry and his roommate?答案：A. T

33、hey are both to blame.解析：17题为租房与住房类，出现了诸如roommate，get along等词汇。并且第二人用maybe给出建议，作为考点。女生首先提到Larry对室友的说话态度不好；然后男生提到有可能他的室友讲了些什么，Larry才会有如此反应。每件事都是有两面性的。因此双方可能都有责任。18.M: We don't have the resources to stop those people from buying us out unless a miracle happens. This may be the end of us.W: I still

34、 have hope we can get help from the bank. After all we don't need that much money.Q: What do we learn about the speakers from the conversation?答案：A. They are in desperate need of financial assistance.解析：18题为商务话题，关键词 resources，考题类型为观点态度类，答案出现在第二人woman回答处，出现不绝对模凌两可的词汇给出观点态度，此为本题考点。第一人话中讲到“buy sb.

35、out”表示收购；对于这个词不认知问题不大，后面给出了提示，表明发生了问题。而第二人给出了建议。具体而言，第一人说情况很不乐观，第二人说还有希望，能向银行求助。由此可知，他们的经济状况不佳，急需帮助。Conversation One听力原文Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.W: You know Ive often wondered why people laugh at the picture of a big belly businessman slipping on a banana

36、skin and falling on his bottom. We are to feel sorry for them.M: Actually, Laura, I think we laugh because we are glad it didnt happen to us. But of course there is also a kind of humorous satisfaction in seeing somebody self-important making a fool of themselves.W: Yes, and there are a lot of jokes

37、 about people who are too fat or physically handicapped, you know, deaf, or short-sighted things like that. After all, its not really funny to be like that.M: Oh, I think thats because were embarrassed. We dont know how to cope with the situation. Perhaps we are even a bit frightened we may get like

38、 that, so we laugh.M: What about the custard pie routine?W: What do you mean custard pie routine?M: You know, all those old films where someone gets so outraged with his boss, He picks up a custard pie and plasters it all over the other persons face.W: That never makes me laugh much, because you can

39、 guess whats going to happen. But a lot of people still find it laughable. It must because of the sort of the thing wed all love to do once in a while and never quiet have the courage to.M: I had an old aunt who used to throw cups of tea at people when she was particularly irritated. She said it rel

40、ieved her feelings.W: It must have come a bit expensive.M: Not really. She took care never to throw her best china.19. C）We derive some humorous satisfaction from their misfortune.解析：从But of course there is also a kind of humorous satisfaction in seeing somebody self-important making a fool of thems

41、elves.一句中，可知，我们会嘲笑他人的不幸，是因为我们可以从中得到一种幽默的满足，derive from 意为得到，取得, make a fool of 意为愚弄，出洋相，所以正确答案是C20. C) They don't know how to cope with the situation解析：人们之所以会嘲笑胖子或身体有残缺的人，是因为人们不知该如何处理那样的情况，文中有句有真相"We dont know how to cope with the situation"，所以正确答案是C21. A) They themselves would like to

42、 do it but don't dare to.解析：custard pie 意为“牛奶饼”，题目问的是，为什么人们看到有人往老板脸上扔牛奶饼，会觉得很有趣？对话中也几乎是原封不动地给出了答案，那是因为我们也想做却不敢做。would like to do 是love to do 的同义替换词， dare to do 又是have courage to do 的同义替换词。22. C) To relieve her feelings.解析：relieve feelings意为缓和情绪，对话中提到，She said it relieved her feelings. 这位男生的阿姨自己亲

43、口表示，当她被激怒时，会朝别人扔茶杯，来缓和自己的情绪，而不是如选项A 所说，to irritate them ,激怒别人。所以正确答案是C这篇对话探讨的是心理问题，有些小抽象。但是大家千万不要被这阵势吓到了，只要事先阅读过一遍题目，听对话时定位准确，找到关键词，很多问题便迎刃而解啦。四个问题都是按照文章的顺序提问的，第一个和最后一个问题如大家所料，在对话的开头和结尾部分，所以开头和结尾仍是要严防死守之处。除此以外，同义替换词依然是重点考察项目，如would like to do ， dare to do。这篇长对话虽然很多答案能从对话中可以直接找到相对应的原句，但是在做听力时，还是要仔细聆听

44、，定位关键句，否则漏掉一句，做起题目来可能就会比较吃力了。Conversation Two听力原文W: Your name Sanjay Kumar is that correct?M: Yes, madam.W: You claim you are traveling on a scholarship from Delhi University.M: Thats right.W: Now it seems that a hand gun was found in your luggage. Do you admit that?M: Yes, butW：According to the sta

45、tement you made, you had never seen the hand gun before it was found in your bag. Do you still maintain that?M: But its true. I swear it.W: Mmm, you do realize Mr. Kumar that to bring a hand gun into Hong Kong without proper authorization is a serious offense.M: But I didnt bring it. I I mean I didn

46、t know anything about it. It wasnt there when I left Delhi. My bags were searched. It was part of the airport security check.W: Maybe so, but someone managed to get that hand gun onto the aircraft or it couldnt have been there.M: Someone but not me.W: Tell me , where was your personal bag during the

47、 flight?M: I had it down by my feet between me and the man in the next seat.M: He was the only person who could have opened my bag while I was asleep. It must have been him.W: I see. Have you any idea who this man was?M: He told me his name, Alfred Foster. He was very friendly, after I woke up that

48、is. He hadnt spoken before.W: Alfred Foster, we can check that on the passenger list.M: He said he had a car coming to meet him. He offered me a lift.W: Oh, Why should he do that?M: So he can get his handgun back, thats why. Please find him, Madam.Questions 23-25 are based on the conversation you ha

49、ve just heard23. D) Bringing a handgun into Hong Kong解析：suspect 的意思是怀疑，题目问， Sanjay Kumar 被怀疑什么？对话的开头，女警察便说到，“Now it seems that a hand gun was found in your luggage”，也就是说在Sanjay Kumar 的包里发现了一把手枪，由此可得出选项D24. D) He is suspected of having slipped something into Kumar's bag解析：从对话中，我们了解到，Sanjay Kumar

50、并没有携带枪支，而是坐在他身边的Alfred Foster 栽赃嫁祸，趁Sanjay Kumar 睡着时，将手枪放进他的包里，slip 有暗中塞入的意思，对应选项D25. B) Find Alfred Foster.解析：对话的最后一句已给出了答案，"Please find him, Madam."Sanjay Kumar 请求警察能够找到Alfred Foster这是一篇审讯对话，在最近三年的六级长对话听力中，还没有涉及，但是审讯对话并不难，我们可以从两人的语气，称呼中得出，如Sanjay Kumar 称那位女士为madam,女士的口气也比较硬，如用了“Do you ad

51、mit that，tell me"等语句。这篇长对话既考察了对大意的理解，也考察了对细节的把握，其中24题，更像是一道推理题，对话中并没有明确指出Alfred Foster 把手枪塞入了Sanjay Kumar 的包内，但我们可以从Sanjay Kumar 的回答中推理出相应的结论，23、25题对细节的考察在对话中可以直接找到出处，总的来说，第二篇长对话还是比较简单的。Section BPassage One听力原文Everyone is looking for a good investment these days. And with stocks, currencies and

52、 companies all crashing, some are finding that taking the trip of a lifetime is actually a smart move right now. Prices are good, crowds are fewer and the dividends like expanded worldview, lifelong memories, the satisfaction of boosting the global economycan't be easily snatched away. Sylvia an

53、d Paul Custerson, a retired couple from Cambridge, England, recently took a 16-day vacation to Namibia, where they went on bird-watching excursions. Later this year, they are planning a trip to Patagonia. "We're using our capital now," says Sylvia, "And why not? We're not gett

54、ing any interest in the bank. If it's a place we really want to go, then we will go. We may as well travel while we're fit and healthy. "Some travel agents are thriving in spite of the economy. "We've had more people booking in the first quarter of this year than last," sa

55、ys Hubert Moineau, founder of Tselana Travel, which is planning to introduce a new program of longer adventure trips, including polar expeditions and cruises in the Galápagos. "We're hearing things like, 'We don't know what the situation will be in six months so let's trave

56、l now' ", Ashley Toft, managing director of the U. K. tour operator Explore has been surprised to see an increase in last-minute bookings of high-priced trips to such places as India, Bhutan and Nepal. "It seems people would rather give up something else than the big trip," he say

57、s. Travel has become a necessity. It's just how we travel that is changing.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.篇章类型及提要：社会现象，经济相关听力点睛：本文介绍了在总体市场经济不景气的前提下，旅游业异军突起现象及其前因后果。文章开篇就介绍总的社会背景是各种不景气前提下，外出旅游成为人们的选择之一，紧接着以一个例子来证明。然后旅行社相关的权威人物的话语中更是证明目前旅游业正风头正劲。文章中出现的金融词汇，人名、地名及职务

58、名称，如investment, investment, Namibia, Namibia, managing director of the U. K. tour operator Explore等。一定程度上会让考生觉得头疼，且分散注意力。这就需要考生有一定对重要信息的提取能力。人名、地名及职务名称等听过有个印象就好，不必过于纠结。精剖细析：26. According to the speaker, why are some people willing to spend their money on travel these days?答案：B）They think travel give

59、s them their money's worth.解析：推断题。本题问如今一些人愿意把钱花在旅游上的原因。第一题通常从听力开头去定位答案。文章第一句"Everyone is looking for a good investment", 紧接着说明但如今股票市场，货币投资和公司都不太景气（crashing），一些人就发现旅行不失为一个不错的“投资”，( taking the trip of a lifetime is actually a smart move) 这钱花得也值。27. What is Tselana Travel planning to do,

60、according to its founder?答案：D) Launch a new program of adventure trips.解析：细节题。看到Tselana Travel直接锁定目标，且听力中也给出了"planning to introduce."排除其他选秀。 旅游业兴盛起来，那么相应的旅行社等必然会采取措施，争取吸引客户获得经济利益。所以听的时候我们要格外注意，要对旅行社的行为要注意听。p28. According to Ashley Toft, managing director of Explore, what is changing now wi

61、th regard to travels?答案：B) The way people travel.解析：细节题。关键词"Ashley Toft"和"changing"，考生容易选C选项，因为这个Ashley Toft也提到了last-minute bookings数字的增长。但是一定要把文章听完，最后给出了"Travel has become a necessity. It's just how we travel that is changing." 2个选项一对比，B选项更为合适。 The way people trave

62、l和how we travel用到了同义替换。也再次说明，听力首尾都是听力常考的重点区域，不可掉以轻心。Passage Two听力原文Somehow the old male and female stereotypes no longer fit. Men and women in this country havent been fulfilling their traditional roles for some time now. And there seem to be fewer and fewer differences between the sexes. For instan

63、ce, even though more women than men are still homemakers without paying jobs, women have been taking over more responsibility in the business world, earning higher salaries than ever before and entering fields of work that used to be exclusively male areas. At office meetings and in group discussion

64、s, they might speak up more often, express strong opinions and come up with more creative and practical ideas than their male colleagues. Several days ago, my 23-year-old daughter came to me with some important news. Not only had she found the highest paying job of her career, but shed also accepted

65、 a date with the most charming men shed ever met.“Really?”, I responded,” tell me about them.”“Receptionist in an attorneys office and a welder at a construction site.” She answered in a matter-of-fact way. The interesting thing is my daughters date is the receptionist and my daughter is the welder.
