1：It is unwise to judge a person by appearance.不要以貌取人
As a prevailing saying goes,“Don’t judge a person by appearance”.Undoubtedly, it reflects a current phenomenon that fewer individuals seem to attach due importance to the significance of intrinsic factors.However, from my own perspective, we should put more emphasis on the quality rather than appearance.Taking a look around, we can find examples too numerous to list.The best illustration might be some currently over-packaged products in the markets.To put it more exactly, we may easily notice that the delicate packaged products may turn out to be of inferior quality.Exactly, it is the intrinsic factors that enable us to make reasonable choices.In short, laying a solid foundation is crucial if we want to make achievements in our studies or work, or indeed in any other aspects of our lives.And what we should bear in mind is that essence matters most instead of “the first sight”.六级作文第二篇
题目：It is unwise to put all eggs in one basket.As a common saying goes，“It is unwise to put all eggs in one basket.”Placing all eggs in one basket means focus all our attention on one thing and fix all our hope on one thing.However, It is wrong and reasonless.Why placing all eggs in one basket is wrong ? Placing all eggs in one basket tends to reduce the odds of success.By focusing on one thing , people will surely improve their efficiency and proficiency.However, they will also overlook other resources and possibilities，thus，the likelihood of success will be lower.Take Jack, one of my best friends, as a case in point: he started to hunt for jobs in his senior year.Compared with other students who chose different kinds of jobs, he aimed at state-owned firms alone.Unfortunately, getting a decent job in state-owned firms is really hard for him.At last, when others got a job, he was still on the way to his interviews.suppose he choose jobs in a wider range and “place all eggs in different baskets”，he could have gotten a job much easier.Putting all eggs in one basket in unwise, a truth which is applicable to many situations.As a college student，we should endeavor to master more skills, accumulate different experience and make friends with diverse people.参考译文：
俗语有云：“把鸡蛋放在一个篮子里是不明智的”。将鸡蛋放在一个篮子里意味着将我们的注意力集中在一件事情上，将我们的所有希望寄托在一件事情上。然而，这是错误且不理智的。
为什么将所有鸡蛋放在一个篮子里是错误的?首先，将鸡蛋放在一个篮子里，往往会减少成功的概率。聚焦一件事情，人们确实会提高效率和熟练程度。然而，人们也会因此忽略其他的资源和可能性，因此成功的可能性反而降低了。比如说，以我最好的朋友之一杰克为例，他在大四那年开始找工作。与其他找不同的工作的同学相比，他只选择国企。不幸的是，在国企找到一份合适的工作着实不易。最终，当别人都找到工作的时候，他还在赶着去面试呢。假设他再更广的范围内选择工作或者说将“鸡蛋放在不同的篮子里”。或许他可以更加容易的找到工作。
将鸡蛋放在不同的篮子里是不明智的，这个真理适用于不同的场合。作为一名大学生，我们应该努力去掌握更多的技能，积累不同的经验以及与不同的人交朋友。

中文热词通常反映社会变化和文化，有些在外国媒体上愈来愈流行。例如，土豪(tuhao)和大妈(dama)都是老词，但已获取了新的意义。
土豪以前指欺压佃户和仆人的乡村地主，现在用于指花钱如流水或喜欢炫耀财富的人。也就是说，土豪有钱，但没有品味。大妈是对中年妇女的称呼，但现在特指不久前金价下跌时大量购买黄金的中国妇女。
土豪和大妈可能会被收入新版牛津(Oxford)英语词典。至今已有约120个中文词被加进了牛津英语词典，成了英语语言的一部分。
Chinese buzzwords, some of which are more and more prevalent among Western media, normally reflect the change of society as well as culture.For example, tuhao and dama are actually existing words which have achieved new meanings.Tuhao was originally referred as landowners who bully tenants and servants, but now it is used to describe those people who spend money without thinking or who are keen on flaunting wealth.That is to say, tuhao has money, but doesn’t have taste.Dama was the title of middle-aged woman, but now it is used to call those people who buy a lot of gold when the price decreased not long time ago in particular.There is a possibility that tuhao and dama could be adopted in new edition Oxford.Up to now, there are already about 120 Chinese words added into Oxford, becoming a part of English language.

2.出现这种现象的原因和后果
3.为了改变这种状况，我认为......参考范文1.Due Attention Should Be Given to Internet Overuse
In recent years,the ignorance of Chinese has been prevailing among students.Some refuse to go to Chinese classes, and some read few Chinese classics.In contrast,more and more students attach great importance to foreign language study.There are three premier factors that can account for such phenomenon.First and foremost,the globalization greatly stimulates the students“ craze for learning English, which in turn affect students” passion foe studying Chinese.Moreover,fewer and fewer universities motivate students to study Chinese.Last but not least,the increasing emphasis on such “practical subject”as foreign language closely related to hunting jobs also cut into students' time and energy.There fore,Students' weakness in Chinese would undoubtly not only lead to their ignorance of Chinese culture but also hinder the study of other subjects.In my view ,effective measures are called for to solve the problem.First, it should be made clear to the whole society that Chinese is one indispensable part of our culture.Second,schools should attach more importance to the teaching of Chinese.Third, students should enhance their awareness of the importance of mastering their mother tongue.参考范文.Just as the saying goes “Every coin has two sides”,Internet is never an
exception.Along with many conveniences brought about by it.Internet also swallows much time which students may otherwise spend on their study.What's
worse,according to a recent survey,too much time has been wasted on chatting ,online gaming and things like taht.There are various reasons contributing to this phenomenon,For one thing, sone students get addicted to Internet and gaming in particular so much that theytend to give way to their desire.For another , numerous Net bars locae themselves nearby schools or universities,which provide a breeding ground for Internet

A 【标准版】 Man and Computer
Ever since the birth of it, the computer has largely changed human being’s life and there has been a hot debate about its effects on humans.Undeniably, computers have taken the place of humans in many areas and it seems that computers begin to think like man, but this does not necessarily lead to the danger that man will think like computers.The reasons, in my opinion, are as follows.Firstly, when computers release human from repetitive tasks, humans themselves can spend more time on creative works, such as scientific research, which require imagination and cannot be completed by computers.Meanwhile, thanks to computers, humans get more spare time with their friends and family, which enhances their happiness.Moreover, even though computers can work automatically, the premise is that the program, which is written by humans, has been installed in it.In conclusion, humans, unlike computers, have creative ability, emotional desires and social bounds.Thus, I don’t think that there will be the danger that man will begin to think like the computer.【高分版】
Man and Computer
It is believed that the computer is bringing the world into a brand new era.At the time the computer was invented, scientists, marveling at its calculating speed, felt that they had created a miracle.Nowadays, the function of the computer is no longer confined to calculation;it permeates people’s daily lives and has become an inseparable part of human society.People become so heavily dependent on computers that it is hard to imagine the life without computers.Therefore, some people are worried that “The real danger is not that the computer will think like man, but man will think like the computer.” Their concern does make sense.Indeed, some people spend such a long time working on computers that they have few interactions with people in real life.According to a research, too many hours in front of a computer may lead to a poker face and interpersonal isolation.This fact should arouse our attention, because unlike computers, human beings are social creatures that need emotional connections with others.Yet, it is also unnecessary for us to be overwhelmed by the negative impacts of computers.After all, we humans are intelligent and will be able to figure out better ways to make improvements.B【标准版】
On Maintaining Trust
Trust is the most frequently used word when we are talking about interpersonal relationships.However, it is hard to build trust but easy to destroy it.Therefore, how to build and maintain trust is very important for us.In my opinion, some factors play a primary role in it.First comes honesty.There’s an old saying in Chinese: once bitten, twice shy.Thus, never lie to your partners.If they find out you’re lying or cheating, the existing trust will be broken.Once broken, it’s always hard to rebuild it.Promise-keeping is the second one.If you always break your promise, you will not be trusted by others any more.Another important aspect is attitude.People with good attitude are always welcome.They
show their good manners, patience, modesty, willingness to communicate and, most important of all, sincerity to others, which contributes greatly to eliminating apathy and coldness.There are, still, other influential factors.However, from my perspective, honesty, promise-keeping and good attitude stand out among them.【高分版】
On maintaining trust
Trust is a key strategy for building effective relationships with the people we come into contact with, including our team members, peers and customers.If you want to have a positive influence over anyone or anything, you need to earn trust first.As the level of trust develops, however, there will be situations and incidents that shake the foundations that have been built.Therefore, maintain trust is even more important.There are several keys to maintain trust.First is integrity.You need to remain honest and morally upright.The second is stick to your words.If you say you would do something, then do it, otherwise never say it.For once you break your promises, you can hardly reestablish it.Trust is built and maintained by many small actions over time.Trust is telling the truth, even when it is difficult, and being truthful, authentic, and trustworthy in your dealings with other people.Only by maintain trust can one make real achievements and enjoy a rewarding life.快速阅读答案：

Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage through carefully before making your choices.Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter.Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.Women in 2011 made no significant gains in winning more top US business jobs, according to a study, but the head of the study said women are poised to make36in the year ahead.The number of women who were board directors, corporate officers or top earners at Fortune 500 companies remained37unchanged, said the study by Catalyst, a nonprofit group that38opportunities for women in business.The percentage of companies with women on the board of directors was 15.1 percent this year, compared with 14.8 percent in 2010, Catalyst said.Also, the percentage of corporate officer positions39by women was 15.7 percent in 2011 and 15.4percent in 2010, it said.The percentage of top earners in 2011 who were women was 6.2 percent, compared to 6.7percent in 2010, it said.The research on the Fortune 500 companies was40on data as of March 31, 2011.The slight changes in the numbers are not considered41significant, Catalyst said.Nevertheless, given the changes in U.S.politics, the future for women in business looks more42, said Ilene Lang, president and chief executive43of Catalyst.“Overall we’re44to see change next year,” Lang said.“When we look at shareholders, decision makers, the general public, they’re looking for change.”

Section B
Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs.Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.How Marketers Target Kids
A)Kids represent an important demographic to marketers because they have their own purchasing power, they influence their parents’ buying decisions and they are the adult consumers of the future.Industry spending on advertising to children has exploded in the past decade, increasing from a mere $100 million in 1990 to more than $2 billion in 2000.B)Parents today are willing to buy more for their kids because trends such as smaller family size, dual incomes and postponing children until later in life mean that families have more disposable income.As well, guilt can play a role in spending decisions as time-stressed parents substitute material goods for time spent with their kids.Here are some of the strategies marketers employ to target kids:
Pester(纠缠)Power
C)Today’s kids have more autonomy and decision-making power within the family than in previous generations, so it follows that kids are vocal about what they want their parents to buy.“Pester power” refers to children’ ability to nag their parents into purchasing items they may not otherwise buy.Marketing to children is all about creating pester power, because advertisers know what a powerful force it can be.D)According to the 2001 marketing industry book Kidfluence, pestering or nagging can be divided into two categories—“persistence” and “importance”.Persistence nagging(a plea, that is repeated over and over again)is not as effective as the more sophisticated “importance nagging”.This latter method appeals to parents’ desire to provide the best for their children, and plays on any guilt they may have about not having enough time for their kids.The Marriage of Psychology and Marketing
E)To effectively market to children, advertisers need to know what makes kids tick.With the help of well-paid researchers and psychologists, advertisers now have access to in-depth knowledge about children’s developmental, emotional and social needs at different ages.Using research that analyzes children’s behaviour, fantasy’ lives, art work, even their dreams, companies are able to craft sophisticated marketing strategies to reach young people.F)The issue of using child psychologists to help marketers target kids gained widespread public attention in 1999, when a group of U.S.mental health professionals issued a public letter to the American Psychological Association(APA)urging them to declare the practice unethical.The APA is currently studying the issue.Building Brand Name Loyalty
G)Canadian author Naomi Klein tracks the birth of “brand” marketing in her 2000 book No Logo.According to Klein, the mid-1980s saw the birth of a new kind of corporation—Nike, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, to name a few—which changed their primary corporate focus from producing products to creating an image for their brand name.By moving their manufacturing operations to countries with cheap labour, they freed up money to create their powerful marketing messages.It has been a tremendously profitable formula, and has led to the creation of some of the most wealthy and powerful multi-national corporations the world has seen.H)Marketers plant the seeds of brand recognition in very young children, in the hopes that the seeds will grow into lifetime relationships.According to the Center for a New American Dream, babies as young as six months of age can form mental images of corporate logos and mascots.Brand loyalties can be established as early as age two, and by the time children head off to school most can recognize hundreds of brand logos.While fast food, toy and clothing companies have been cultivating brand recognition in children for years, adult-oriented businesses such as banks and automakers are now getting in on the act.Buzz or Street Marketing
I)The challenge for marketers is to cut through the intense advertising clutter(杂乱)
in young people’s lives.Many companies are using “buzz marketing” —a new twist on the tried-and-true “word of mouth” method.The idea is to find the coolest kids in a community and have them use or wear your product in order to create a buzz around it.Buzz, or “street marketing”, as it’s also called, can help a company to successfully connect with the elusive(难找的)teen market by using trendsetters to give them products “cool” status.J)Buzz marketing is particularly well-suited to the Internet, where young “Net promoters” use chat rooms and blogs to spread the word about music, clothes and other products among unsuspecting users.Commercialization in Education
K)School used to be a place where children were protected from the advertising and consumer messages that permeated their world—but not anymore.Budget shortfalls(亏空，差额)
are forcing school boards to allow corporations access to students in exchange for badly needed cash, computers and educational materials.L)Corporations realize the power of the school environment for promoting their name and products.A school setting delivers a captive youth audience and implies the endorsement of teachers and the educational system.Marketers are eagerly exploiting this medium in a number of ways, including: 1)sponsored educational materials;2)sup
plying schools with technology in exchange for high company visibility;3)advertising posted in classrooms, school buses, on computers in exchange for funds;4)contests and incentive programs: for example, the Pizza Hut reading incentives program in which children receive certificates for free pizza if they achieve a monthly reading goal;
5)sponsoring school events.The Internet
M)The Internet is an extremely desirable medium for marketers wanting to target children.It’s part of youth culture.This generation of young people is growing up with the Internet as a daily and routine part of their lives.Kids are often online alone, without parental supervision.Unlike broadcasting media, which have codes regarding advertising to kids, the Internet is unregulated.Sophisticated technologies make it easy to collect information from young people for marketing research, and to target individual children with personalized advertising.Marketing Adult Entertainment to Kids
N)Children are often aware of and want to see entertainment meant for older audiences because it is actively marketed to them.In a report released in 2000, the U.S.Federal Trade Commission(FTC)revealed how the movie, music and video games industries routinely market violent entertainment to young children.O)The FTC studied 44 films rated “Restricted”, and discovered that 80 per cent were targeted to children under
17.Marketing plans included TV commercials run during hours when young viewers were most likely to be watching.The FTC report also highlighted the fact that toys based on characters from mature entertainment are often marketed to young children.Mature rated video games are advertised in youth magazines;and toys based on “Restricted” movies and M-rated video games are marketed to children as young as four.46.Guilt can affect parents’ spending decisions because they don’t have enough time for their kids.47.The Center for a New American Dream pointed out that brand loyalties could be formed as early as age two.48.School boards allow corporations to access to students because they need money and educational materials badly.49.The FTC report highlighted the fact that toys based on characters from mature entertainment are often marketed to young children.50.For this generation of young people, the Interact is a daily and routine part of their lives.51.According to Kidfluence, “persistence nagging” is less effective than the more sophisticated “importance nagging”.52.According to a report released by the U.S.Federal Trade Commission, the movie, music and video games industries usually market violent entertainment to young children.53.Buzz marketing is well-suited to the Internet because the interactive environment can spread messages effectively.54.A group of U.S.mental health professionals think that it is unethical to use child psychologists to help marketers target kids.55.According to the Pizza Hut reading incentives program, children will receive certificates for free pizza if they achieve a monthly reading goal.Section C
Directions: 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)and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage One
Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.Like most people, I’ve long understood that I will be judged by my occupation, that my profession is a gauge people use to see how smart or talented I am.Recently, however, I was disappointed to see that it also decides how I’m treated as a person.Last year I left a professional position as a small-town reporter and took a job waiting tables.As someone paid to serve food to people, I had customers say and do things to me I suspect they’d never say or do to their most casual acquaintances.One night a man talking on his cell phone waved me away, then beckoned(示
意)me back with his finger a minute later, complaining he was ready to order and asking where I’d been.I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like a peon(勤杂工)by plenty of people.But at 19 years old, I believed I deserved inferior treatment from professional adults.Besides, people responded to me differently after I told them I was in college.Customers would joke that one day I’d be sitting at their table, waiting to be served.Once I graduated I took a job at a community newspaper.From my first day, I heard a respectful tone from everyone who called me.I assumed this was the way the professional world worked—cordially.I soon found out differently.I sat several feet away from an advertising sales representative with a similar name.Our calls would often get mixed up and someone asking for Kristen would be transferred to Christie.The mistake was immediately evident.Perhaps it was because money was involved, but people used a tone with Kristen that they never used with me.My job title made people treat me with courtesy.So it was a shock to return to the restaurant industry.It’s no secret that there’s a lot to put up with when waiting tables, and fortunately, much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips.The service industry, by definition, exists to cater to others’ needs.Still, it seemed that many of my customers didn’t get the difference between server and servant.I’m now applying to graduate school, which means someday I’ll return to a profession where people need to be nice to me in order to get what they want.I think I’ll take them to dinner first, and see how they treat someone whose only job is to serve them.56.The author was disappointed to find that ________.A)one’s position is used as a gauge to measure one’s intelligenceB)talented people like her should fail to get a respectable jobC)one’s occupation affects the way one is treated as a personD)professionals tend to look down upon manual workers
57.What does the author intend to say by the example in the second paragraph?A)Some customers simply show no respect to those who serve them.B)People absorbed in a phone conversation tend to be absent-minded.C)Waitresses are often treated by customers as casual acquaintances.D)Some customers like to make loud complaints for no reason at all.58.How did the author feel when waiting tables at the age of 19?
A)She felt it unfair to be treated as a mere servant by professionals.B)She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded her as a peon.C)She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her.D)She found it natural for professionals to treat her as inferior.59.What does the author imply by saying “...many of my customers didn’t get the difference between server and servant”(Line 3, Para.7)?
A)Those who cater to others’ needs are destined to be looked down upon.B)Those working in the service industry shouldn’t be treated as servants.C)Those serving others have to put up with rough treatment to earn a living.D)The majority of customers tend to look on a servant as a server nowadays.60.The author says she’ll one day take her clients to dinner in order to ________.A)see what kind of person they areB)experience the feeling of being servedC)show her generosity towards people inferior to herD)arouse their sympathy for people living a humble life
Passage Two
Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.What’s hot for 2007 among the very rich? A $7.3 million diamond ring.A trip to Tanzania to hunt wild animals.Oh, and income inequality.Sure, some leftish billionaires like George Soros have been railing against income inequality for years.But increasingly, centrist and right-wing billionaires are starting to worry about income inequality and the fate of the middle class.In December, Mortimer Zuckerman wrote a column in U.S.News & World Report, which lie owns.“Our nation’s core bargain with the middle class is disintegrating, ” lamented(哀叹)the
117th-riehest man in America.“Most of our economic gains have gone to people at the very top of the income ladder.Average income for a household of people of working age, by contrast, has fallen five years in a row.” He noted that “Tens of millions of Americans live in fear that a major health problem can reduce them to bankruptcy.”Wilbur Ross Jr.has echoed Zuckerman’s anger over the bitter struggles faced by middle-class Americans.“It’s an outrage that any American’s life expectancy should be shortened simply because the company they worked for went bankrupt and ended health-care coverage, ” said the former chairman of the International Steel Group.What’s happening? The very rich are just as trendy as you and I, and can be so when it comes to politics and policy.Given the recent change of control in Congress, the popularity of measures like increasing the minimum wage, and efforts by California’s governor to offer universal health care, these guys don’t need their own personal weathermen to know which way the wind blows.It’s possible that plutocrats(有钱有势的人)are expressing solidarity with the struggling middle class as part of an effort to insulate themselves from confiscatory(没收性的)tax policies.But the prospect that income inequality will lead to higher taxes on the wealthy doesn’t keep plutocrats up at night.They can live with that.No, what they fear was that the political challenges of sustaining support for global economic integration will be more difficult in the United States because of what has happened to the distribution of income and economic insecurity.In other words, if middle-class Americans continue to struggle financially as the ultrawealthy grow ever wealthier, it will be increasingly difficult to maintain political support for the free flow of goods, services, and capital across borders.And when the United States places obstacles in the way of foreign investors and foreign goods, it’s likely to encourage reciprocal action abroad.For people who buy and sell companies, or who allocate capital to markets all around the world, that’s the real nightmare.61.What is the current topic of common interest among the very rich in America?
A)The fate of the ultrawealthy people.B)The disintegration of the middle class.C)The inequality in the distribution of wealth.D)The conflict between the left and the right wing.62.What do we learn from Mortimer Zuckerman’s lamentation?
A)Many middle-income families have failed to make a bargain for better welfare.B)The American economic system has caused many companies to go bankrupt.C)The American nation is becoming more and more divided despite its wealth.D)The majority of Americans benefit little from the nation’s growing wealth.63.From the fifth paragraph we can learn that ________.A)the very rich are fashion-consciousB)the very rich are politically sensitive
C)universal health care is to be implemented throughout AmericaD)Congress has gained popularity by increasing the minimum wage
64.What is the real reason for plutocrats to express solidarity with the middle class?A)They want to protect themselves from confiscatory taxation.B)They know that the middle class contributes most to society.C)They want to gain support for global economic integration.D)They feel increasingly threatened by economic insecurity.65.What may happen if the United States places obstacles in the way of foreign investors and foreign goods?
A)The prices of imported goods will inevitably soar beyond control.B)The investors will have to make great efforts to reallocate capital.C)The wealthy will attempt to buy foreign companies across borders.D)Foreign countries will place the same economic barriers in return.Part ⅣTranslation(30 minutes)
