五．作文部分
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: The Post-graduate Craze. You should write at least 150 words and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:
1、目前很多人报考研究生。
2、我认为形成这股热潮的原因是……
The Post-graduate Craze
Each year, millions of college students will sit in for the post-graduate entrance examination. More and more students have regarded the pursuing of a master degree as an indispensable part of their education.
What is to account for their enthusiasm for a post-graduate diploma? First, it is the demand of the time. In an age of knowledge updating and information explosion, what you have learned in college can hardly meet the demand of society. Talents of high quality who are equipped with the latest knowledge and skill will be needed more than ever. That is why many students will further their studies.
Second, we all recognize that the more education you have, the more likely you are to succeed. Compared with those without a master degree, masters will enjoy more preferential treatment, for example, better salaries, more opportunities for promotion and training. A post-graduate degree can guarantee a more promising career.
Last but not least, with the graduation of a large number of college students, competition for jobs becomes more and more fierce. One way to gain some advantage over others is to have a higher degree.
No wonder millions of students will consider pursuing a post-graduate degree.
2013年6月大学英语六级考试即将进行，恒星英语网四六级频道为您提供2013年6月英语六级作文预测，下面是一段关于流行音乐的六级作文，要求考生对流行音乐是俗是雅进行论述，六级写作思路及作文模板如下。
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: My Idea of Pop Music. You should write at least 150 words and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:
1、 有人认为流行音乐不能登大雅之堂。
2、 有人认为音乐无高低贵贱之分，只有兴趣上的差别。
3、 我认为……
My Idea of Pop Music
Pop music is held I contempt by many people. In these people’s eyes pop music is always in sharp contrast to “lofty music”. The latter refers to symphonies and operas of the European countries. They show great concern for the fact that many people prefer pop music to symhonies, because for them pop music should be excluded from the holy palace of music.
Conversely, many people have an ordor for pop music. They argue that people who want us to listen to symhonies are advocating a kind of “elite culture”. This notion is unacceptable to pop music fans, for they don’t believe that symphonies are loftier than pop music. The difference only lies in the interests of different people. It is unfair to speak of pop music with contempt while speaking of symphonies with awe.
In conclusion, my idea is that just as there is no distinction between high culture and low culture, so it is inappropriate to say pop music belongs to the “lower” people whereas symphonies in a higher, loftier form of music. After all, there are many badly-composed symphonies. And we can’t expect every piece of pop music to be excellent. Pop music reflects the thoughts and interests of a certain age group of a generation. It is the product of a certain age, but it also has something universal, something that belongs to all human beings, that underlies its great success among people. In this sense it is rather foolish for some peopleof media to show great concern simply because many people prefer pop music. Anyway pop music has become an indispensable part of the human family.
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Turn off Your Cell Phone. You should write at least 150 words and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:
1、手机给我们的生活带来了便利。
2、但是手机铃声也会影响其他人。
3、在某些场合请关掉你的手机。
Turn off Your Cell Phone
With the development of information technology and reduced price of communication products, the mobile phone has become a necessity for most people. Obviously, it shortens the distance between people and makes our life more convenient. Thanks to the cell phone, it’s easy for us to contact or be contacted by others anytime and anywhere. We will never miss any important meetings, great deals or admirable opportunities.
However, have you noticed sometimes the cell phone also brings embarrassment to us? It’s not rare to see someone pressing the cell phone to his ear and shouting loudly in public as if there were no one else present. And I’m sure each one has had such an experience that the cell phone ring continuously on a formal occasion. Perhaps these people have many life-and-death reasons to keep the phone working at all times, but it interrupts people around them who have to hear what they don’t care when they want to concentrate on what they’re doing.
So if you are one of them, please shut off your cell phone in public, especially on a quiet and serious occasion. It’s a respect for both others and yourself.

Using a computer every day can have more negative than positive effects on young children. Do you agree or disagree?
I tend to agree that young children can be negatively affected by too mcuh time spent on the computer every day. This is partly because sitting in front of a screen for too long can be damaging to both the eyes and the physical posture of a young child, regardless of what they are using the computer for.
However, the main concern is about the type of computer activities that attract children. These are often electronic games that tend to be very intense and rather violent. The player is usually the ‘hero’ of the game and too much exposure can encourage children to be self-centered and insensitive to others.
Even when children use a computer for other purposes, such as getting information or emailing friends, it is no substitute for human interaction. Spending time with other children and sharing non-virtual experiences is and important part of a child’s development that cannot be provided by a computer.
In spite of this, the obvious benefits of computer skills for young children cannot be denied. Their adult world will be changing constantly in terms of technology and the Internet is the key to all the knowledge and information available in the world today. Therefore it is important that children learn at an early age to use the equipment enthusiastically and with confidence as they will need these skills throughout their studies and working lives.
I think the main point is to make sure that young children do not overuse computers. Parents must ensure that their children learn to enjoy other kinds of activity and not simply sit at home, learning to live in a virtual world.
On Employment
With the increase of the number of graduated college students, the grim employment situation is becoming a hot topic. Why such a phenomenon occurs? Except for some social factors, there are many important affecting factors can be found on the job-hunters themselves.
When a graduate hunts for a job, he has to take the priority issue of a few significant factors into consideration, such as the pay, the specific field, the location and personal hobbies. It is reasonable. However, most of graduates usually combone all these factors toghther. In their opinions, the pay should take the first place, since they have been spending the money of the family all the time, and it’s time to do something as the reward to other family members. Besides, a high pay usually means a relatively high position in the company; the major is the number one element as well, since it would be a big waste of what they have learned in college, if they deviate from it. Meanwhile, they want to chose work which can agree with their interest and preference. Still they offer the pride of place to the location of the job and the nature of the work unit. They believe that big cities like Beijing or Shanghai will provide more opportunities, and a public situation will offer better welfare. Thereby they have to waif for employment, although they have graduated for several months.
For my part, I believe that there is more than one way to Rome, so is the way of job-hunting. The ideal mehhod for being employed is to learn to make intelligent trade-offs.
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Social Network Sites. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below.
1. 当今社会，社交网站很流行
2. 各人对此看法不同
3. 我的看法
Social Network Sites
Part I Writing
【参考范文一】
Social Network Sites
In recent years, social network sites like Renren and Kaixin have rapidly gained popularity among all kinds of people. Many people spend a lot of time on those sites chatting, making friends and playing games. Those sites have become a part of their life.
The public hold different views on this phenomenon. Some are in favor of those sites for they provide many opportunities to know other people and to know what’s happening in the world. Besides, they’re very convenient to access. One can use a computer or cell phone to log on at home, in a restaurant, or even in the subway. But some people don’t approve of the social network sites. They say that people are wasting too much time on the sites. Some even get addicted to them and abandon their real life. After all, they don’t live in the virtual world.
In my opinion, the social network sites can be very helpful when we want to keep in touch with friends, but we must remember that the real world is the most important in our life.
Some people prefer to spend their lives doing the same things and avoiding change. Others , however, think that change is always a good thing. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Over the last half century the pace of change in the life of human beings has increased beyond our wildest expectations. This has been driven by technological and scientific breakthroughs that are changing the whole way we view the world on an almost daily basis. This means that change is not always a personal option, but an inescapable fact of life, and we need to constantly adapt to keep pace with it.
Those people who believe they have achieved some security by doing the same, familiar things are living in denial. Even when people believe they are resisting change themselves, they cannot stop the world around them from changing. Sooner or later they will find that the familiar jobs no longer exist, or that the ‘safe’ patterns of behavior are not longer appropriate.
However, reaching the conclusion that change is inevitable is not the same as assuming that ‘change is always for the better.’ Unfortunately, it is not always the case that new things are promoted because they have good impacts for the majority of people. A lot of innovations are made with the aim of making money for a few. This is because it is the rich and powerful people in our society who are able to impose changes(such as in working conditions or property developments ) that are in their own interests.
In conclusion, I would say that change can be stimulating and energizing for individuals when they pursue it themselves, but that all change, including that which is imposed on people, does not necessarily have good outcomes.
Some people believe that children should be allowed to stay at home and play until they are six or seven years old. Others believe that it is important for young children to go to school as soon as possible. What do you think are the advantages of attending school from a young age?
In many places today, children start primary school at around the age of six or seven. However, because it is more likely now that both parents work, there is little opportunity for children to stay in their own home up to that age. Instead, they will probably go to a nursery school when they are much younger.
While some people think this may be damaging to a child’s development, or to a child’s relationship with his or her parents, in fact there are many advantages to having school experience at a young age.
Firstly, a child will learn to interact with a lot of different people and some children learn to communicate very early because of this. They are generally more confident and independent than children who stay at home with their parents and who are not used to strangers or new situations. Such children find their first day at school at the age of six very frightening and this may have a negative effect on how they learn.
Another advantage of going to school at an early age is that children develop faster socially. They make friends and learn how to get on with other children of a similar age. This is often not possible at home because they are the only child, or because their brothers or sisters are older or younger.
So overall, I believe that , attending school from a young age is good for most children. They still spend plenty of time at home with their parents, so they can benefit from both environments.

六．新东方专家提示：
2013年8月14日全国大学英语四六级考试委员会发布公告称，自2013年12月起，将对试卷结构和测试题型作局部调整。一语激起千层浪，顷刻间，莫可名状的恐慌迅速在大学生中间弥漫，这两天许多问询求助的消息邮件自全国各地如雪花般来到，大家的心情实可理解，趁下午的闲暇，赶紧来此小议。个人以为，本次改革实际并不突然，早在2008年底，机考的改革呼声已吹遍大江南北，妥于硬件及相关问题的局限，机考近年来一直未在国内高校完全普及，可是眼下的四六级考试变得越来越像是块鸡肋，考生食之无味，却又不得不考，凭添给考生的只是应试技巧，各大培训机构的教师为了帮助学员不浪费时间，早日通过这个看似重要实则并无太大备战意义的考试，可谓绞尽脑汁、各显神通。
所以，对于我这样一个内心对中国教育有着深切期盼实则只能在平凡的教书岗位上教着书的普通教员来讲，每一次改革我都从内心深处感到开心与喜悦。
考试的改革至少说明三点：
一 当下考试形式对学生来讲并无大益，当局已然意识到此问题且已经下决心实施并推进了改革，国家也想让这个考试成为在大学期间值得学生去认真备战的能力性考试。
二 每次(包含这次)改革后的考试无疑在出题形式上结合了国内外众多考试形式之精华与高效，力图让考试本身最大程度的反映出考生的实际水平，并迫使学生为了相应的题型去进行必要的学习准备。从这一点来看，只要敢对中国人多年来的畸形英语水平动刀子除垢病，就显示出了官方的极大魄力与那么一点儿智慧。
三 改革之后，如果题型更注重实用，难度有所提升，迎来的或将是大学校园内的一场或多或少的为考试而准备的学习劲头，虽然会有阵痛，可如果结果是皆大欢喜的，这种阵痛又算得了什么呢?毕竟，大到国家，小到个人，哪一次的进步不是因为改革呢?改革不一定都好，可是不改革一定是不好的。
秉承这样的乐观心态，我们来看看本次改革。本次改革只是对试卷结构和测试题型作局部调整。四级和六级的试卷结构、测试内容、测试题型、分值比例和考试时间如下表所示：
| 试卷结构 | 测试内容 | 测试题型 | 分值比例 | 考试时间 | |
| 写作 | 写作 | 短文写作 | 15% | 30分钟 | |
| 听力理解 | 听力对话 | 短对话 | 多项选择 | 8% | 30分钟 |
| 长对话 | 多项选择 | 7% | |||
| 听力短文 | 短文理解 | 多项选择 | 10% | ||
| 短文听写 | 单词及词组听写 | 10% | |||
| 阅读理解 | 词汇理解 | 选词填空 | 5% | 40分钟 | |
| 长篇阅读 | 匹配 | 10% | |||
| 仔细阅读 | 多项选择 | 20% | |||
| 翻译 | 汉译英 | 段落翻译 | 15% | 30分钟 | |
| 总计 | 100% | 130分钟 | |||
局部调整包括：
1、复合式听写部分取消8个单词3个句子的考查，改为10个单词和词组听写，分值不变;
2、快速阅读改为长篇阅读，放回到听力之后，变成段落句子匹配题，分值不变;
3、翻译部分由原单句汉译英调整为140-160的段落汉译英，分值比例提升到15%;
4、完形填空取消;
复合式听写：
官方公告上明确指出，原复合式听写调整为单词及词组听写，短文长度及难度不变。要求考生在听懂短文的基础上，用所听到的原文填写空缺的单词或词组，共10题。短文播放三遍。这个消息显然让听过我四六级听力课的同学们感到不适，因为听完课后你们最翘首以盼的复合听写句子竟然消失了，使得你们的浑身之所学瞬间没了用武之地，这种心情我很能理解。但客观地说，单从出题形式上讲，改革之后的题型的确比之前的句子在难度上有所降低。但不代表大家可以轻视，因为越是看似简单的题目越容易丢分。
改革后的听写题型较像目前国内的两大口译考试的笔试部分，一是上海市中高口，二是人事部三口。这两个考试含金量都不低，故四六级的改革初衷可见一斑。说它难度降低了，不是因为单词短语比长句子听起来简单(貌似简单，实易丢分)，主要是因为文章仍然读三遍，再难的东西只要能听三遍都不是什么大事了，前提是单词关过了。如果像口译考试一样只读一遍，考生不仅要具备坚实的单词和短语基础，还要有扎实的短时记忆能力和速记能力。而四六级只需要有较为扎实的词汇功底。这些能力主要体现在：单词的掌握，不仅是看了认识的视觉词汇，更包括听后能迅速反应出来的听觉词汇能力以及快速记下并将所听单词拼写正确的能力。否则，在考场上听不出来或是下笔忘词的感受恐怕很让人心烦。
新东方备考建议：
单词是硬道理，用什么记忆方法不是重点，关键是在短时间内快速的多次重复记忆，而且记忆单词的时间也不宜过长，2-3月为宜。在四六级考试的大纲词汇范围内，重点记忆名词、动词、形容词，以及大纲上与真题中反复出现的高频词和重点短语。记忆单词和短语时要看、读、听三者结合，遇到长难单词和真题中反复出现的常考词汇和短语，更要习惯在纸上动笔写一写。最后词汇的应用当然不能指望单词书上的例句，而是真题。通过反复做真题，揣摩出题思路、体会词语的实际用法，通过做题加深记忆印象。而听的时候，同音词、近音词、单复数、过去分词在听的时候都会是一个不小的挑战，因为这将涉及到语音的问题。所以有时间弹性的同学不妨每天花点时间(20分钟亦可)通过跟读和模仿标准的语音材料来提高自己的语音水平，并且每周至少抽出3-4天时间，每天30分钟坚定地进行听写练习，这样一来，前后不用半年，你的听力实力将足够你去应对任意一个听力考试。
长篇阅读：
官方公告明确指出，原快速阅读理解调整为长篇阅读理解，篇章长度和难度不变。篇章后附有10个句子，每句一题。每句所含的信息出自篇章的某一段落，要求考生找出与每句所含信息相匹配的段落。有的段落可能对应两题，有的段落可能不对应任何一题。这个题型会让很多人不由自主地想到考研英语新题型和雅思阅读，虽各不同，但有通点。难点在于陷阱设计较好，迷惑性强。尤其注意上文中的这一句"有的段落可能对应两题，有的段落可能不对应任何一题。"从样卷来看，四级中此题为9段，后有10题，这意味着必有一段对应两题;而六级共15段，对应10题，这意味着必有5题是干扰段。时间方面还是较为紧张(因为四六级考试强调的依然是速度)，选词+段落+精读，共40分钟，而此新题大约10分钟。时间短，题量大，除了阅读基本功，相应的技巧和训练亦不可少。
新东方备考建议：
首先保证词汇功底，前文已述。除词汇基础之外，还应掌握一些阅读方法和技巧。比如，段落首尾句作为重点信息处理;特殊信号词在段落和题目中的对应，如数字、大写、特殊符号;特别关注段落衔接句等。而这些方法技巧在大家单词关通过之后，可在真题的训练中逐渐获得。当然，老师们也会及时与大家分享并提供帮助。
翻译：
翻译部分，原单句汉译英调整为段落汉译英。翻译内容涉及中国的历史、文化、经济、社会发展等。四级长度为140-160个汉字;六级长度为180-200个汉字。翻译部分所需的能力比较全面综合，所以无疑可以说是四六级中最难的题型，最易丢分。在国内各种考试中，翻译也是拉开考生分数档的一个题型。而段落汉译英最难的莫过于词语和句型的对等翻译，虽然不及翻译考试难，但对于广大不专门学习翻译的考生来讲，亦可谓难题一个。
新东方备考建议：
这部分的重点依然是词汇，我这里指的是较为特殊的翻译类词汇，主要是一些和中国节日、历史事件、经济文化、旅游活动、社会发展等相关的词汇。这些词汇来源我个人推荐如下两种：1、上海市中高级口译系列之翻译教程。(四级买中级，六级买高级，网上可购)。2、每周至少精读一份Chinadaily的报纸或者每天阅读其网站。这份报纸的大部分内容确实超越了多数考生目前的实力，但是一些涉及到日常社会生活的词语，却是值得学习的。大家每天看看网站中头条新闻，配合相关中文新闻的背景，就可以学到很多表达。
另外推荐一个中国日报网站下的一个小栏目：language tips，有大量简单实用的双语文章。与此同时，大家平时注意选购一些难度不大的翻译书籍，注意积累一些中英文的相关表达。若是还有闲暇时间(其实是有的，大学生活怎一个闲字了得?) ，平时不妨多浏览一些英语学习网站如沪江、可可之类的，或是每天看看英语新闻杂志的网站，如VOA，CNN，BBC，CRI，TIMES，NEWSWEEK等等，养成了看英语听英语甚至说英语的习惯，英语便不再是种负担或是你所认为没用的技能，相反，它会成为你生活中的一种乐趣，考试不过是顺带的事情。
总体来讲，考试的改革不是件坏事，已过的不必幸灾乐祸，没过的更不必哀怨自怜。倘若你愿意牺牲一点点你无所事事拼劲玩儿手机的时间，每天做一点以上谈到的准备工作，你收获的必将不只是通过这个无聊的考试，还会有什么惊喜，谁知道呢?
时间紧迫，不再多聊，愿大家好好准备，夯实好基础与实力，任凭如何改革，也奈何不了你。
现在就开始吧!加油!
To understand the Chinese culture, you have to know something about the Chinese opera culture. In China, there are many kinds of local operas, among which Peking Opera is a representative one. As an independent opera form, Peking Opera was approximately born between 1840 and I860. Peking opera originated from absorbing the essentials of other local operas. In Peking Opera there is a clear division of roles; the spoken parts are in Beijing dialect; and huqin, is the main accompaniment instrument. Since Peking Opera has combined the cream of various local operas, it is enjoyed not only by Beijing audience, but also by people all over the country. 难点精析
1.要了解中国文化，就应该对中国的戏曲文化有所了解：该句没有给出明确的主语，因而在翻译时要注意：增译主语you。“中国的戏曲文化”可译为the Chinese opera culture。 2.中国地方戏种类很多，其中京剧是一个具有代表性的剧种：该句在翻译时可以采用非限定性定语从句结构。该句可译为：In China, there are many kinds of local operas, among which Peking Opera is a representative one.注意此处为了避免在前后分句中重复使用名词opera而在后半句中使用了名词性替代词 one。
3.京剧是在吸收其他地方戏营养的基础上形成的：“在„„的基础上形成”如果直接译为be formed on the I basis of...会稍显生硬，因而可以灵活译为originate from...。“地方戏”可以直译为local opera。
4.念白：“念白”指的是中国戏曲中人物的独白或者两者的对话，因而此处在翻译时可将其灵活译为the I spoken parts。
5.胡琴：这一特有名词在英文中并没有直接对应的词汇或表达，因而可以采用汉语拼音表示。
6.它不仅为北京的观众所钟爱，也受到全国人民的喜爱：“不仅 也 ”常用not only„but also„来表达。此处句中的“钟爱”和“喜爱”同义，在翻译后半部分内容时可以将与前半部分重复的内容省略，故该部分内容可译为：it is enjoyed not only by Beijing audience, but also by people all over the country
