It is a typical example of irony. The word “benefit”, “pleasure”, and “advantage” actually mean theopposite. For the “benefit” of exercise, Oliver was whipped every mo rning in a stone yard; for the “pleasure” of society, he was carried every other day into the dinning hall and flogged as a public warning and example to the boys; and as for the “advantages” of religious consolation, he was kicked into the same apartment every evening at prayer time and listen to the boy?s prayer to be guarded against his sins and vices. The ironic statement is, in fact, a bitter denunciation and fierce attack at the brutal, inhuman treatment of the poor orphan by the workhouse authority.2.“Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain and little,I am soulless andheartless? --- You think wrong!--- I have as much soul as you--- and full as muchheart…I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, or even of mortal flesh;---it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God?s feet, equal--- as we are!”Reference: The statement is taken from Charlotte Bronte?s masterpiece Jane Eyre. In this famous declaration, Jane proves herself a new, unconventional woman, a woman who believes in the basic human rights, in the independence and equality of people of all social classes. She is courageous enough to defy the social conventions that discriminate against the poor and the unfortunate and deprive them of their right to equality. It is not just a personal protest and declaration a governess makes to her master, but a declaration made on behalf of all the unfortunate middle-class working women, and of all the poor people in the world.3.“He flung himself into the nearest seat, and on myapproaching hurriedly toascertain if she had fainted, he gnashed at me, and foamed like a mad dog, and gathered her to him with greedy jealousy. I did not feel as if I were in the company of a cr eature of my own species…”Reference: The sentences are taken from Emily Bronte?s Wuthering Heights. It is a description of the mad, desperate love between Catherine and Heathcliff in her death scene. Heathcliff, seeing his love on the verge of death, was heart-broken. Though they two tortured each other with many a false charge, they were eager to cling to each other at this last moment. Heathcliff, in his eagerness to have her all to himself, now behaved like an animal greedily and jealously guarding his dear one or treasured prey. The terms “gnashed” and “foamed”, simple action words, vividly presents the image of a man desperate in his desire to take possession of his beloved and in his anxiety that someone would come and take her away from him.4.“Tho?/ We are not now that strength which in old days/ Moved earth and heaven;that which we are, we are;/ One equal temper of heroic hearts,/ Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will/ To strive, to speak, to find, and not to yield.”Ref erence: These lines are taken from Alfred Tennyson?s “Ulysses”. In this poem, the old Ulysses is trying to persuade his old followers into setting upon further adventurewith him again. in these lines, he argues that great strength they used to have in their past glorious days, they still have the same strong will and the same heroic spirit to go on struggling and seeking new knowledge until the end of their life. his undying heroic spirit is admirable, indeed.5.“I repeat,/ The Count your master?s known mu nificence/ Is ample warrant that nojust pretense/ Of mine for dowry will be disallowed; / Though his fair daughter?s self, as I avowed/ As starting, is my object.”Reference: These lines are taken from Robert Browning?s “My Last Duchess”. The main idea is that even though, as I said at the very beginning, my real interest in the marriage is his beautiful daughter (it should be his niece) herself, my claim of the money and property that must come with the bride can?t be refused by your master, the Count, because he is such a rich man. The statement reveals the Duke?s unashamed greediness for wealth. From his word, the reader can easily come to the conclusion that his real purpose of the second marriage is not for love, but for money. The marriage is conditioned by his demand for profit. The sacred marriage between people has been commercialized by him.。

2023年12月CET6大学英语六级考试真题及答案解析【官方完整版】Part I 写作Writing (30 minutes)Directions: Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on innovation. Your essay should include the importance of innovation and measures to be taken to encourage innovation.You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参照范文】It is universally acknowledged that innovation refers to being creative, unique and different. In fact, today it is impossibly difficult for us to image a 21st century without innovation.We should place a high value on innovation firstly because innovative spirit can enable an individual to ameliorate himself, so he can be equipped with capacity to see what others cannot see, be qualified for future career promotion, and be ready for meeting the forthcoming challenges. What’s more, we ought to attach importance to the role played by innovation in economic advancement. Put it another way, in this ever-changing world, innovation to economic growth is what water is to fish. To sum up, if innovation misses our attention in any possible way, we will suffer a great loss beyond imagination.In order to encourage innovation, it is wise for us to take some feasible measures. For example, mass media should greatly publicize the significance of creative spirit and encouragethe public to cultivate awareness of innovation. Besides, those who manage to innovate should be awarded generous prize. Though there is a long way ahead to go, I am firmly certain that the shared efforts will be paid off.【参照译文】众所周知创新意味着有发明力，独一无二和不一样。

苔丝悲剧的原因也表现在世俗道德偏见的作弄以及伪善的宗教迫害。

苔丝生活在19 世纪80 年代,按世俗道德,妇女失去贞操就是不洁、不忠,所以一个女子失去贞操就只能与这个男子结合。

正是这样一种世俗道德使苔丝在被亚雷玷污后身心备受煎熬,即使是受过先进资产阶级进步思想教育过的克莱也未能摆脱世俗道德偏见。

苔丝在新婚之夜说出了自己未婚先孕的不幸往事,但未得到克莱的同情和原谅。

克莱认为她是“一个冒名顶替的骗子,一个伪装成纯洁少女的罪妇。

”莱最终抛弃了苔丝,使她再次陷入绝望之中。

可见世俗的偏见葬送了苔丝的爱情,也剥夺了苔丝追求爱情的权利。

社会普遍的道德观都是与宗教紧密联系在一起的。

资产阶级道德视她为伤风败俗的不洁的女人,而宗教思想的渗透也使苔丝本身承受了巨大的精神压力,使苔丝精神上一步步陷入悲剧的深渊。

苔丝思想上深受宗教教义影响,当她的私生子快要病死的时候,她想到的还是婴儿没有受过洗礼,死后无法升入天堂,因此急忙去牧师那里希望可以得到洗礼却被拒绝。

尽管苔丝因绝望而对宗教产生过质疑,但她始终无法摆脱宗教的阴影,不停地用宗教观念想像、解释、象征自己的不幸遭遇。

在她与克莱的关系上,也暴露出资产阶级婚姻制度和道德观念的虚伪和残暴。

品德败坏的资产者可以任意玩弄女性,但一切后果又都归罪于女性。

正如恩格斯所说:“凡在妇女方面被认为是犯罪并且要引起严重的法律后果和社会后果的一切,对于男人却认为是一光荣,至多也不过被当作可以欣然接受的道德上的小污点。

在资产阶级社会里,宗教只是反动统治阶级用以麻醉、欺骗和愚弄劳动人民的工具,道德与法律也只是维护和服务于上流阶层社会的。

Tess lives in 19 in the 1980s, according to secular ethics, women lose their virginity is dirty, infidelity, a woman can only lose virginity with this man on the combination. It is exactly such a secular morality that Tess in the Ya - lei been tarnished after the physical and psychological torment, even if progress is well advanced bourgeois ideological education Klein had failed to shake off the secular moral prejudices.

Bourgeois morality to corrupt public morals as her dirty woman, and the infiltration of religious ideology also Tess itself under severe psychological pressure so that the spirit of Tess step by step into the abyss of tragedy.

Tess of The D'UrbervillesThomas Hardy,the author of Tess of The D'Urbervilles,was one of the excellent novelist of the nineteenth century.Since he was a realistic author,Tess of The D'Urbervilles reflected his real society.This book described a charm of the tragic fate of the poor girl-Tess.She was the eldest daughter of a poor rural working family and looked markedly more mature than she was.Because of the parents' requirement,Tess came to the D'Urbervilles and met Alec Stoke D'Urbervilles.For the beauty of Tess,Alec pretended to help Tess and made her fed chickens in his manor.Three months later,he raped Tess .Tess was hate him and came back home,but she was pregnant and gave birth to a baby ,died for illness unfortunately.After going through a difficult period,Tess decided to start again and made another journey away from home.She came to a milk farm,while met her true love-Angel Clare.He was the son of a clergyman,but he was a freethinker and fallen in love with Tess.Soon,they got married.After wedding,they confessed their pasts to each other,and Tess forgave Angel's for his past indiscretions.But Angel could not put up with Tess for having a child with another man.So Angel abandoned Tess ,went to the Brazil on his own and Tess had to go back home.Because of her father's suddenly death and mother's bad body,the family had no house to live.Tess had no other choice only to a farm to drudge.While unfortunately,Alec appeared again in a minister.Alec entangled Tess constantly and persuaded her to see the reality in her relationship with Angle.For the family exited,Tess had to become Alec's mistress.In the other hand,Angle Clare went through a difficult experience in Brazil and returned from Brazil to look for Tess.Through the psychological struggle,Tess killed Alec and found Angle in the train.During the escaping life with Angle,they had a very happy couple life.But still could not change,Tess was arrested finally and died.Tess could be a happy girl though her family was very poor. But “noble, status, and money” were strongly in her father’s mind, just because of the discovery that a parson said to him. Without their horse’s carrying load, life became rather difficult. Tess blamed herself completely, and she wondered what she could help her parents. Then T ess obeyed her mother’s idea, to work at the D’Urberville’s home.After reading this book,it gives me great impression.There is no doubt that the tragedy of Tess, firstly is the social tragedy.In that age,Tess lived in the bottom of the society.She was very simple and wanted a simple life with her true love,but she had no power to defenseherself.Therefore she lost her purity.In other words,Angle also did a wrong thing and it even more serious than Tess's crime.Tess had owned the traditional virtue and the spirit of selfless dedication.The same,she was the victim of law.But perhaps no love,no hatred,no dignity,death was the best way for Tess to extricate herself.Tess did not make any mistakes,but at last, she born all punishments and sufferings.What we cay is that all the panic of Tess comes from the unfair society.To be honest,this book is really worth reading.It gives me great influence.。
