写作

作文题一：

For this part ， your are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay explaining  why it is unwise to judge a person by their appearance 。You can give explain to illustrate your point .You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words .

It is a truth universally acknowledged that the criteria of judging a person are extremely complex.Various as the standards might be, judging a person by appearance is the most unreliable one. As a famous saying goes, it is unwise to judge a person by their appearance. This proverb aims to deliver the message that in order to truly know a person, we need to go beyond their looks and dresses and focus on more profound aspects.

There are several reasons supportive of this statement. Firstly, people are so diverse that some of them are not willing to demonstrate themeselves by their appearance because they may dedicate more time to their work and their hobbies. Moreover, it is too busy for the modern urban people to maintain their appearance. If we judge a person by their appearance when he or she is in a bad state, we might lose a possible good friend or an opportunity. For instance, yesterday the dean of our department, on his way to the teaching building for an emergent meeting with an important investor, fell to the ground and got very dirty. But the new security, taking him for a beggar or a vendor, didn’t allow the dean to enter the building. Finally, the security was fired for his arbitrary judgment.

To conclude, judging a person by their appearance is highly undependable. Therefore, we’d better draw a conclusion about a person through a long period of observations, interACTions, and communication.

这篇文章的题型没有很难，可以直接当做引言类的文章来写。二段用两原因+一例子的方式是最容易写的。最后一段给出一点点建议就好。

作文二：把全部鸡蛋放到一个篮子里是不明智的。

It is a truth universally acknowledged that we need to have a plan B when we are doing important things. As a famous proverbs goes, it is unwise to put all your eggs in one basket. This saying obviously aims to deliver the message that in order to avoid possible failures and setbacks, we ought to make adequate and flexible preparations.

Nobody can be certain of what is going to happen in the future; therefore, we all need to have different plans and prepations in case of undesirable outcomes. Then, the losses and risks can be tremendously reduced. For instance, a decade ago, chinese stock market was extremely profitable and made numerous people millionnaires just overnight. One day, my uncle came to my home and he intended to borrow money from my parents. He promised that he would return the money plus the interest in two years. But my father was dicreet and he only loaned him a few. Then, he deposited some in the bank, invested some in the national bond, and spent the rest on a new apartment. Two years later, chinese stock market crashed and my uncle nearly lost all his fortune. Luckily, my father’s decision made more money for us.

To conclude, it is highly unfeasible to put all eggs in just one basket. Not only will this give rise to the unexpected and unaffordable result, but we will be inclined to be irrationale and unreasonable.

作文三：看到什么、听到什么就立刻得出结论是不明智的。

Living in an age when the adolescents are lack of the necessary guidance and supervision, we can never fail to figure out the fACT that teenagers are becoming especially self-conscious. Under this circumstance, the youngsters are more likely to believe in what they have listened or seen instead of thinking twice before drawing their conclusions, which is pathetically and undoubtedly considered controversial or even unreasonable.

The reasons why I insist on the viewpoint that we should never directly and irresponsibly come to conclusions only by listening or seeing mainly lie in the following two aspects. To begin with, it is an invariable law to every existence in the world that nothing will stay still even for just one second.So are the things happening around us. What we see or listen may be just some particular period of the development of things, which proves unstable and changeable. In addition, the perspectives we conclude just through seeing or listening are usually one-sided. Drawing conclusions rashly is not objective enough to make our statements persuasive.

To sum up, it is unwise for us to define any thing as what we assume or imagine at first sight. Only by our serious thinking and accurate analyzing

can we come up with more rational and reasonable conclusions.

翻译一：

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，土豪和大妈都是老词，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，但是没有品位。大妈是对中年妇女的称呼，但是现在特指不久前金价大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的牛津（OXford）英语词典，至今约有120中文加进了牛津英语词典，成了英语语言的一部分。

The Chinese heated words usually reflect social changes and culture, some of which are increasingly popular with foreign media. Tuhao and dama, for example, are both old words, but they get different meanings now.

The word tuhao used to mean rural landlords who  oppress their tenants and servants, while now it refers to people spending money without limits or those showing off all around. That is to say, tuhao owns  money rather than taste. The word dama is used to describe middle-aged women. However, it is regarded as a special word to  call those Chinese women who rushed to purchase gold when the gold price decreased sharply not long ago.

Tuhao and dama may be included in the new Oxford dictionary. Up to now, about 120 Chinese words have been added  to it, becoming a part of English language.

此篇文章难度系数不高，属于热门话题，所以同学们在平时备考时可以多了解一些热门话题并对其相关的英文文章多加记忆，会对考试有很大的帮助。

首先我们来看第一段话的重要考察点：

1中文热词通常反映社会变化和文化，有些（The Chinese heated words usually reflect social changes and culture， some of which），这里考查的语法知识很典型，属于非限定性定语从句，从句中的which 指代Chinese heated words。如果基础不好的同学也可以不用从句而直接用and 连接两个简单句的翻译方法，比如（social changes and culture, and some of them ）。

2愈来愈流行 （increasingly popular） 这里属于“越来越＋形容词”的考查点如果基础不好的同学可以用最朴素的more and more ＋adj. 来替换，这里不像写作，只需要你能翻出来正确的表达就ok 。

3例如 （for example ）注意举例子在翻译中是非常常见的知识点，所以同学们一定要多积累一些举例的方法。 以下列出一些常用的表达： like ，such as ，for example ， for instance 。

第二段重点分析如下：

1 定语从句 ：指欺压佃户和仆人的乡村地主 （rural landlords who  oppress their tenants and servants） 考查标志词“的”，在翻译中遇到“V.＋n.＋的＋n.” 这样的表达时我们可以考虑使用定从来翻译。比如我们看这句话后面的一部分 “现在用于指花钱如流水或喜欢炫耀财富的人” 这里的“喜欢炫耀＋财富＋的＋人”符合我们的模式，我们可以这样翻译：people who spend money without any limits or like to show off around 。  当然范文中使用的是分词做定语（people spending money without limits or those showing off all around） 基础好的同学可以用这样的翻译方法，但实在不能掌握的用定语从句也是很好的。  

2 解释，描述性的词语：本段多处用到描述的词语而在翻译中描述的词汇也是极其常考的，希望同学们多做积累。这里列出一些描述，解释性的词语供大家参考：mean  ，refers to ，that is to say，describe ，be regarded as .

3状语从句：（现在特指不久前金价大跌时大量购买黄金的中国妇女。）这句话是定语从句＋状语从句的考查，考查的是when 引导的时间状语。对于这种从句复合式的考法同学们要理清思路，只要思路清晰翻译起来很好拿分。 这里定语从句的判断还是服从我们讲过的“v.购买+n.黄金+的＋n.妇女” 模式   。

第三段的重点如下：

1 多动词的翻译：一句话中若有多个动词那这句话的翻译时动词的翻译一定是重点考查对象。（土豪和大妈可能会被收入新版的牛津（OXford）英语词典，至今约有120中文加进了牛津英语词典，成了英语语言的一部分。 ）

此句中第一第二个动词已经被至今这个时间状语所分割开来，所以没有什么好讲的，而第二个动词与第三个之间没有明显的衔接或分割，那么我们就要注意要么用连词连接成为两个简单句（比如Up to now, about 120 Chinese words have been added  to it, and become a part of English language）.要么使用其他的方法讲起成为一个句子，而这里我们使用的是将第三个动词用分词形式来出现。（Up to now, about 120 Chinese words have been added  to it, becoming a part of English language.）以上两种翻译方法都是可行的。

综上所述，不难看出本篇文章翻译所考察的知识点其实是很常见的知识点，而且一句话往往有很多种翻译方法，它并不像写作那样对于表达有所谓高级和低级之分，只要能翻出正确的表达，都是能够拿到相应分数的，所以在翻译过程中一定要选择自己所能驾驭的层次来翻，不求多难只求达意。

二：

最近中国科学院（Chinese Academy of Science ）出版了关于其最新科学发现与未来一年展望的年度系列报告。系列报告包括三部分：科学发展报告，高技术发展报告，中国可持续战略报告。第一份报告包含中国科学家的最新发现，诸如新粒子研究与H7N9病毒研究的突破。该报告还突出强调了未来几年需要关注的问题。第二份报告公布了一些应用科学研究的热门领域，如3D打印和人造器官研究。第三份报告呼吁加强顶层设计，以消除工业升级中的结构性障碍，并促进节能减排。

 Chinese Academy of Science recently published an annual report about its latest scientific findings and the prospect of the next  year. The report consists of three parts: science development, more advanced technology development and the sustainable strategy of China. The first one includes the latest findings of Chinese scientists, such as the research of new particle and the breakthrough in the study of H7N9 virus. Furthermore, it highlights some problems we need to focus in next few years. The second one announces some heated fields in applied science. For example, the 3－dimension print and the study of artificial human organs. The third one suggests people enhance the top design in order to get rid of the structural obstacles in industrial upgrading and to promote the energy-saving and emission-reduction.

解析：第一句，修饰成分较长，注意分清主干（中国科学院出版了年度系列报告）；第二句，句式简单，考察词汇；第三句考察同义词包括（include,consist of)替换；第四句无难度；第五句结构和第三句一致，考察专业词汇的翻译（应用科学，3D）; 第六句考察suggest后虚拟语气用should do, do 通常省略，另外考察词汇节能减排。

三：

北京计划未来三年投资7600亿元治理污染，从减少pm2.5排放入手。这一新公布的计划旨在减少四种主要污染源，包括500万辆机动车的尾气排放、周边地区燃煤、来自北方的沙尘暴和本地的建筑灰尘，另外850亿元用于新建或升级城市垃圾处理和污水处理设施，加上300亿元投资未来三年的植树造林。

市政府还计划建造一批水循环利用工厂，并制止违章建筑，以改善环境。另外，北京还将更严厉地处罚违反减排规定的行为。

Beijing is going to invest 760 billion yuan in next  three years to control pollution, beginning with cutting down the emission of PM 2.5 . This newly announced project aims to reduce four major sources of pollution, including exhaust from 5000 thousand motor vehicles, coal-burning in surrounding areas, sandstorms from the north and local construction dust. Another 85 billion yuan is used to build or upgrade the facilities of disposing garbage and sewage of the city. In addition, 30 billion to support afforestation programs in next three years.

The municipal government also plans to construct some plants to use cycle water, banning illegal constructions to modify the environment. Furthermore, Beijing will punish those who violate the rules of emission-reduction more severely.

解析：第一句包含两个简单句，两句主语一致，所以可以将后半句改为非谓语形式； 第二句，考察词汇尾气、燃煤、沙尘暴、建筑灰尘；第三句和第四句都是简单句，考察垃圾处理、污水处理、植树造林的表达；第五句两项政府举措，仍然将第二句用非谓语表达。最后一句注意定语从句的使用。

总体上看，这篇六级翻译句式不算很复杂，但是对热点词汇的考察占了比较大的比重。

短文理解：

Passage 1

In a study of older people with sisters and brothers, psychologist Debra Gold of the Duke Center for the study of aging and human development found that about 20% said they were hostile or indifferent to ward their sisters and brothers. Reasons for this ranged from inheritance disputes to hostility between spouses. But, many of those who had poor relationships felt guilty. Although most people admitted to some lingering rivalry, it was rarely strong enough to end the relationship. Only four out of the 54 people interviewed had completely broken with their sisters and brothers and only one of the four felt comfortable with the break. As sisters and brothers advanced into old age, closeness increases and rivalry diminishes, explains VC, a psychologist at Purdue University. Most of the elderly people he interviewed said they had supportive and friendly dealings and got along well or very well with their sisters and brothers. Only 4% got along poorly. Gold found that as people age, they often become more involved with and interested in their sisters and brothers. 53% of those she interviewed said that contACT with their sisters and brothers increase innate adulthood. With family and career obligations reduced, many said that they had more time for each other. Others said that they felted with time to heal wounds. A man who had recently reconciled with his brother told Gold there’s something that lets older people to put aside bad deeds of the past and focus a little on what we need now, especially when it’s sisters and brothers.

16. What does the study by Debra Gold find about older people?

17. What has probably caused closeness to increase among sisters and brothers according to VC?

18. What did the man who had recently reconciled with his brother tell Debra Gold about older people?  

16. 点评：本文第一句话就是考点，根据 “about 20% said they were hostile or indifferent to ward their sisters and brothers” 得出本题答案为选项A: One fifth of them were on bad terms with their sisters and brothers. 其中one fifth是对20%的同义改写， “be on bad terms with”是对 “hostile or indifferent to”的改写。

17. 点评：考点信息来自文章中间， “As sisters and brothers advanced into old age, closeness increases and rivalry diminishes, explains VC” 得出本题答案为选项C: Advance in age.

18. 点评：考点信息来自文章最后， “there’s something that lets older people to put aside(放到一旁) bad deeds(不好的行为) of the past and focus a little on what we need now” 得出本题答案为选项B: They tend to forget past unhappy memories and focus on their present needs.

Passage 2:

Monarch butterflies, the large origin black insects, are common summer sights in northern United States and Canada. They brighten in parks and gardens as they fly among the flowers. What makes monarch butterflies particularly interesting is they migrate, all the way to California or Mexico in back. They are thought to be the only insect that does this. Every year in the late summer, monarch begin their migration to the south, those heading for Mexico go first for the Louisiana Mississippi region. And then they fly to go across Mexico into Texas. Once in Mexico, they establish themselves in one of about 15 sizes in the mountain forth. Each side provides the winter home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so numerous that they often cover the entire trees. When spring comes, they began their long journey north. The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round trip journey every year. And the answer is no. The average monarch lives about nine month. So when fly the north, they might lay eggs in Louisiana and die. The eggs of that following generation may be found in Kentucky, the eggs of next generation may be in the Kang Michigan. The last generation of the season about the forth may make the journey back in Mexico and restart the cycle. Scientists learn about the monarch butterflies’ migration by capturing and placing the identifying tags in the insects. By recapturing the attempt of the monarch and noting where they came from, the next scientist can figure out things like butterfly’s age and its routing

Question 19 to 22

19. what is the unique about the monarch butterfly according to the speaker?

20. where does the butterfly settle at the end of the migration?

21. what does the speaker say about the monarch butterflies’ reproduction?

The last generation of the season about the forth may make the journey back in Mexico and restart the cycle.”对应选项C Each generation in a cycle lays eggs at a different place.

22. 点评：由于本文从头到尾都在介绍的迁徙模式和特点，因此容易得出答案为选项C Migration patterns of monarch butterflies.

The most comprehensive data from major Time Use Service suggests, if anything, Americans today have more free time than the early generations. The number of hours we work has not changed much, but we spend less time now on home tasks. So we have a GREat amount of time for leisure than in decades past. so why do we feel like time so scare.

When people billed their time by ninety dollars an hour they report feeling far more priced for time. Thinking about our time as money, changes are our behavior as well. in one study, people who were instructed to think about money before entering a cafe spent less times chatting with the other patrons and more time working. Those who are thinking their time did reverse spending time socializing instead of working.
