六级真题写作与翻译.docx

Writing (14-12)As is depicted in the cartoon(正如漫画里所描述的), a Master is applying for a job（一个拥有硕士学位的学生在申请一份工作）, but he is rejected only for the reason that he doesn’t have a degree as high as other applicants who are all Ph.D.S（但他被拒绝了，原因仅仅在于他的学位没有其他求职者高，而其他求职者都是博士生）. Simple as the cartoon is（这副漫画虽然简单, it is thought-provoking（但却引人深思）.Apparently(很明显), the cartoon tries to criticize the phenomenon that employers have been attaching too much importance to academic degrees（该漫画试图批判的是雇主过分重视学位的现象）. As a matter of fact（实际上）, educational background, though cannot be ignored, should not be the primary criterion in selecting employees and what really matter are one’s abilities and potential（教育背景虽不能受到忽视，却不应该成为挑选员工的首要标准，真正重要的是才能和潜力）. First of all, academic degrees only represent the applicants’ proficiency in their study , but cannot demonstrate their practical abilities to fulfill tasks（首先，学位仅仅代表的是求职者的学业水平，却无法证明其完成任务的实际能力）. Moreover, putting too much emphasis on degrees might hinder the development of companies and may make companies miss real talents（而且，过分强调学位可能会阻碍企业的发展，并可能使企业错失真正有才能的人）. Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are the cases in point（比尔. 茨和斯蒂芬.乔布斯就是很恰当的例子）.who turned out to be extraordinary talents though they were college dropouts（他们虽然都在上大学时辍学，却最终被证明是出类拔萃的天才）. Besides, in the long run, one’s personality and moral qualities, such as enthusiasm, honesty and faithfulness, are also of great significance, which are by no means shown in the diploma（除此之外，从长远来看，一个人的个性和道德品质，比如热情，正直和忠诚，也极为重要，而这些在毕业证书上是绝对不可能展现出来的）.From what has been discussed above, we could conclude that employers and society nowadays should pay more attention to one’s comprehensive quality rather than just his or her academic degree（从以上的讨论我们可以得出这样的结论，如今的雇主和社会应该更加注重一个人的综合素质，而不应只看其学位高低）.TranslationChina will try to make sure that employees receive 13.3 years of education on average by 2015（中国将努力确保到 2015 年就业者接受过平均 13.3 年的教育）. If the goal is achieved, most of people who enter the labor marker will have to acquire a college diploma(如果这一目标得以实现，今后大部分进入劳动力市场的都须获得大学文凭).In the next few years（在未来几年）, China will attach great importance to increasing the student enrollments of vocational colleges（中国将着力增加职业学院的招生人数）: apart from focusing on higher education ,China will also seek new breakthroughs to ensure a fairer education system （除了关注高等教育之外，还将寻找新的突破以确保教育制度更加公平）.China is endeavoring to make the best use of educational resources and therefore rural and underdeveloped areas will receive more supports（中国正在努力最佳地利用教育资源，这样农村和欠发达地区将获得更多的支持）.The Ministry of Education has also determined to improve the nutrition of students in less developed areas and provide equal opportunities for children of migrant workers to receive education in cities（教育部还决定改善欠发达地区学生的营养，并为外来务工人员的子女提供在城市接受教育的同等机会）.Writing (14-6-1)The saying that “men cannot be judged by their appearance” often reminds me of the proverb that “a book should never be judged by its cover,”（ “不可以貌取人”这个说法经常让我想起“不可依据封面判断一本书的好坏” ）. both indicating that external appearance is unreliable and sometimes can be misleading(这两句话都表明外表并不可靠，有时还会误导人).The saying also tries to convey that in order to truly know a person, we need to go beyond their looks and focus on more profound aspects（这种说法还试图传达这样一个信息，即为了真正了解一个人，我们需要超越外表，关注其更为深刻的方面）.Admittedly, attractive appearance is of significance and can be an advantage（诚然，富有魅力的外表很重要，也可以是一种优势）. However, what really matters is one’s quality and ability, which can create values for people and society（然而，真正重要的是一个人的品质和能力）. There are numerous examples of outstanding people with remarkable achievements who are just plain-looking（外貌平凡却取得了非凡成就的杰出人物不胜枚举）. A good case in point is Stephen Hawking（斯蒂芬霍金就是一个很好的例子） . He is crippled but has made great contributions to the world and become one of the greatest contemporary scientists（他虽身患残疾，却为世界做出了伟大的贡献，成为当代最伟大的科学家之一）. Moreover（此外）, with the advancement of technology（随着技术的发展） , one’s appearance can be easily changed through plastic surgeries（人的外貌能够通过整容轻易地改变） , but abilities can only be obtained through years of self-cultivation（但能力却只能通过长年累月的自我培养才能获取）. Last but not least, it’s one’s quality and ability that last while good looks fade over time （最后但同样重要的一点是，只有品质和能力能够长久存在，美丽的外貌会随着时间的推移而逝去）.To conclude, judging a person by his or her appearance is superficial and undependable（总之，以貌取人是肤浅和不可靠的）. A better standard is to judge one by what good he or she does to the world and humans（更好的判断标准是他们为世界和人类带来里什么好处） .TranslationBeijing has planned to invest 760 billion yuan to tackle pollution in the coming three years(北京计划未来三年投资 7，600 亿元治理污染), starting from reducing the PM2.5 emissions（从减少 PM2.5 开始） . The newly released plan is aimed at reducing four major pollution sources（这一新公布的计划旨在减少四种主要污染源）, including the exhaust emissions from more than 5 million motor vehicles, the burning of goals in the surrounding areas, the sandstorms from the North and the local construction dusts（包括 500 多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）. Another 85 billion yuan will be used to build or upgrade the facili。
