作⽂预测范⽂: 上免费下载歌曲 Should Free Music Downloads Be Banned? 1. 越来越多的⼈开始在上免费下载歌曲 2. 有⼈认为这会严重影响唱⽚业发展，应予以禁⽌，有些⼈则不以为然 3. 我的看法 参考范⽂ With the development of technology, more and more people are making use of the Internet and are enjoying downloading all types of materials. Some are especially fond of downloading free music. They argue that free music downloads not only enrich their lives, but also are good for the music industry because they help increase the popularity of music. However, from my point of view, it is not advisable to allow free music downloads. For one thing, this practice violates the intellectual property rights of musicians. For another, this will exert a negative impact on the sales of musical products such as CDs, which may do harm to the whole music industry. Without good returns, who would like to invest in the music industry? In order that the music industry will develop healthily, we had better ban free music downloads. Let’s all start to do so ourselves. 阅读1 The first way we can approach language is as a phenomenon of the individual person. It is concerned with describing and explaining language as a matter of human behavior. People speak and write; they also evidently read and understand what they hear. They are not born doing so; they have to acquire these skills. Not everybody seems to develop them to the same degree. People may suffer accidents or diseases, which impair their performance. Language is thus seen as part of human psychology, a particular sort of behavior, the behavior, which has as its principal, function that of communication. The trouble with the term “behavior” is that it is often taken to refer only to more or less overt, and describable, physical movements and acts. Yet part of language behavior-that of understanding spoken or written language, for example-has little or no physically observable signs. It is true we can sometimes infer that understanding has taken place by the changes that take place in the other person’s behavior. When someone has been prohibited from doing something, we may infer that he has understood the prohibition by observing that thereafter he never behaves in that way. We cannot, of course, be absolutely sure that his subsequent behavior is a result of his understanding; it might be due to a loss of interest or inclination. So behavior must be taken to include unobservable activity, often only to be inferred from other observable behavior. Once we admit that the study of language behavior involves describing and explaining the unobservable, the situation becomes much more complicated, because we have to postulate some set of processes, some internal mechanism, which operates when we speak and understand. We have to postulate something we can call a mind. The study of language from this point of view can then be seen as a study of the specific properties, processes and states of the mind whose outward manifestations are observable behavior; what we have to know in order to perform linguistically.This approach to language, as a phenomenon of the individual, is thus principally concerned with explaining how we acquire language, and its relation to general human cognitive systems, and with the psychological mechanisms underlying the comprehension and production of speech; much less with the problem of what language is for, that is, its function as communication, since this necessarily involves more than a single individual. 1.What is the best title for this passage? A) Language as Means of Communication. B) Language and Psychology. C) Language and the Individual. D) Language as a Social Phenomenon. 2.According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? A) Language is often regarded as part of human psychology. B) People develop language skills of different degrees as a result of different personal experiences. C) Language is a special kind of psychological behavior that is born with an individual. D) People learn to speak and write through imitation and training. 3.What does the term “behavior” in the second paragraph especially refer to in this passage? A) It refers to observable and physical movements and acts. B) It refers to the part of language behavior that involves understanding or interpretation. C) It refers to both the overt and the unobservable language behaviors in communicating. D) It refers to acts of speaking and writing. 4.What does “internal mechanism”(Line 3, Para. 3) mean? A) Secret machine. B) Mental processes. C) Overt system. D) Mechanic operation. 5.What can you infer from the passage? A) Its individualistic approach to language is meant to study the psychological processes of language acquisition. B) The individualistic approach to language is mainly concerned with how language functions in society. C) The study of language is sure to involve more than a single individual. D) Psychological approach to language is concerned with the comprehension and production of speech. 答案：CCCBA 阅读2 The orange towers of the Golden Gate Bridge--probably the most beautiful,certainly the most photographed bridge in the world--are visible from almost every point of elevation in San Francisco. The only crack in Northern California's 600-mile continental wall,for years this mile-wide strait was considered unbridgeable. As much an architectural as an engineering feat, the Golden Gate took only 52 months to design and build, and was opened in 1937. Designed by Joseph Strauss, it was the first really massive suspension bridge,with a span of 4,200ft, and until 1959 ranked as the world's longest. It connects the city at its northwesterly point on the peninsula to Marin County and Northern California, rendering the hitherto essential ferry crossing redundant, and was designed to withstand winds of up to a hundred miles an hour and to swing as much as 27 ft. Handsome on a clear day, the bridge takes on an eerie(神秘的) quality when the thick white fogs pour in and hide it almost completely. You can either drive or walk across. The drive is the more thrilling of the two options as you race under the bridge's towers, but the half-hour walk across it really gives you time to take in its enormous size and absorb the views of the city behind you and the headlands of Northern California straight ahead. Pause at the midway point and consider the seven or so suicides a month who choose this spot,260 ft up, as their jumping-off spot. Monitors of such events speculate that victims always face the city before they leap.In 1995, when the suicide toll from the bridge had reached almost 1,000,police kept the figures quiet to avoid a rush of would-be suicides going for the dubious distinction of being the thousandth person to leap. Perhaps the best loved symbol of San Francisco, in 1987 the Golden Gate proved an auspicious place(风⽔宝地) for a sunrise party when crowds gathered to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary. Some quarter of a million people turned up (a third of the city's entire population); the winds were strong and huge numbers caused the bridge to buckle(使弯曲), but fortunately not to break. 1. What is TURE of the Golden Gate Bridge?A. It is certainly the world's most beautiful bridge.B. It is far from San Francisco.C. It is a feat neither architecturally nor engineeringly before 1960.D.It was the world longest bridge. 2. What do you know further about the Golden Gate Bridge? A. It is over a strait where no bridge could have been built before the 1930s. B. It is the first massive bridge designed by Joseph Strauss.C. It appears while in the thick white fogs.D. It connects Marin Country with Northern California. 3. Of the two exercises, the drive over the bridge is more _________.A. interestingB. fascinatingC. invitingD. exciting 4. Those who attempt to suicide often jump from the midway point of the bridge probably because_________.A. they want to die quietlyB. they want to die quicklyC. they want to take a glance at the bridge's towersD. they want to take a glance at San Francisco 5. What would be the best title for the text?A. The World's Most Beautiful BridgeB. The World's Most Photographed BridgeC. The World's First Suspension BridgeD.The Golden Gate Bridge 答案：DADDD 阅读3 Children are getting so fat they may be the first generation to die before their parents, an expert claimed yesterday. Today’s youngsters are already falling prey to potential killers such as diabetes(糖尿病) because of their weight. Fatty fast-food diets combined with sedentary(长坐的) lifestyles dominated by televisions and computers could mean kids will die tragically young, says Professor Andrew Prentice, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. At the same time, the shape of the human body is going through a huge evolutionary shift because adults are getting so fat. Here in Britain, latest research shows that the average waist size for a man is 36-38in, and may be 42-44, by 2032. This compares with only 32.6in. in 1972.Women’s waists have grown from an average of 22in. in 1920 to 24in. in the Fifties and 30in. now. One of the major reasons why children now are at greater risk is that we are getting fatter younger. In the UK alone, more than one million under- 16s are classed as overweight or obese(过度肥胖的)— double the number in the mid Eighties. One in ten four-year- olds are also medically classified as obese. The obesity(肥胖症) pandemic(流⾏病)—an extensive epidemic— which started in the US, has now spread to Europe, Australasia, Central America and the Middle East. Many nations now record more than 20 per cent of their population as clinically obese and well over half the population as overweight. Prof. Prentice said the change in our shape has been caused by an oversupply of easily available high-energy foods combined with a dramatic drop in the energy we use as a result of technology developments. He is not alone in his concern. Only last week one medical journal revealed how obesity was fuelling a rise in cancer cases. Obesity also increases the risk factor for strokes and heart disease as well as dia b e t e s .

2014年12月大学英语六级考试真题(三)答案详解作文范文：On Diploma Discrimination in Job InterviewAs is vividly shown in the cartoon,an applicant with a master's degree was rejected in a job interview by an interviewer because all the other applicants are Ph.D.s.The applicant seems quite helpless and embarrassed. Simple as the cartoon may seem,it conveys a thought-provoking message that people are exaggerating the significance of educational degrees excessively,which inevitably exerts a negative influence in society.What factors might contribute to diploma discrimination?Answers to this question may involve many aspects,and here are a few guesses:on the one hand,quite a few employers hold that the higher degree people have,the more competent they will be.Of course this is not necessarily a logical viewpoint,because certificates cannot prove one's capability.On the other hand,due to increase of enrollment,too many students graduate from universities and colleges year after year,and the number is still growing;however,society fails to provide adequate posts,whichresults in the companies'too picky attitude on diploma since they don't worry about lacking candidates.In my opinion,the public should realize that real ability speaks much louder than a piece of paper.Only in this way can China's economy keep booming.Section C26．floating【精析】句意推断题。

2014年12月大学英语六级考试真题(三)答案与详解PartⅠWriting审题思路本作文话题为大学校阿中令你受益最多的一项活动，非常贴近大学生的生活。

因此，在构思时可以用自己的亲身经历作为材料，着重阐述活动的有益之处。

考生首先应该指明是什么校园活动让你受益最多;接着应对该活动进行描述，说明它让你受益之处，最后总结全文、升华主题。

写作提纲一、指出大学校园中最让“我”受益的活动(benefited me most)二、阐述该活动让“我”受益之处：1、描述活动（a debate competition)2、活动所得(what I have leamt from it)三、升华主题：指出“我”从活动中得到了对未来而言最珍贵的礼物(the most precious gift for future)范文点评1全文翻译最有益处的大学活动每个大学都为学生提供多种多样的校园活动以丰富他们的课外生活。

作为一个年轻的大学生，我从这些精心组织的活动中学到了很多。

但是让我受益最多的是去年参加的那场辩论赛。

那是一次有不同专业学生参与的辩论赛，辩题是理论知识与实践。

最重要的不是辩论的结果，而是我从中学到了什么。

那就是，没有哪个人能够单凭自己就可以完成一项极具挑战性的任务。

要赢得任何一项竞赛，共同努力都极为重要。

我很幸运参加了那场辩论赛，从中我收获了对未来而言最珍贵的礼物：珍惜团队精神和共同努力，这将帮我扫清通往成功道路上的每一个障碍。

PartⅡListening ComprehensionSection A1.W：Simon,could you return the tools I lent you for building the bookshelf last month?M：Oh,well,I hate to tell you this,but I can't seem to find them.Q：What do we learn from the conversation?1.A)The man hates to lend his tools to other people.B)The man hasn’t finished working on the bookshelf.C)The tools have already been returned to the woman.D)The tools the man borrowed from the woman are missing.【预测】选项中多次出现了tools—词，且出现了lend，returned和borrowed,由此可推测对话很可能与工具的借和还有关。
