[英语六级作文]2018年12月英语六级作文答案：试卷三 职责与兴趣
For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on how to balance job responsibilities and personal interests。
You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words。
Along with the development of society，more and more problems are brought to our attention；one of the most serious problems is how to reach the balance between job responsibilities and personal interests。
People have different attitudes towards the problem。
It is generally agreed that job responsibilities has been playing an increasingly important role in our life，because we need to complete them to earn money for life。
But if people put too much time on work，their
mental conditions will be damaged and suffer from kinds of diseases。
The sub health of workers has attracted extensive attention of the society，which can be found in TV programs，newspapers，university classes and many aspect of our everyday life。
Thus，in addition to work responsibility，people should develop personal interests using spare time。
Then，they could enjoy the life and get rest both physically and mentally。
However，if people invest too much time on personal interests，their career developments may be affected and lost opportunities for a better life。
From what has been discussed above，we may safely draw the conclusions that people should focus on work responsibility during work time and develop personal interests on spare time。

Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.In what's probably the craziest headline I've ever written, I've reported that __26__ in livestock protection are happening with scientists painting eyes on the butts of cows. The experiment is based upon the idea that farmers who're protecting their herd from lions would shoot and kill lions in an effort to protect their livestock. While this makes a lot of sense, it results in many lion deaths that __27__ would have been unnecessary. Researchers in Australia have been __28__ and testing a method of trickery to make lions think they are being watched by the painted eyes on cow butts.This idea is based on the principle that lions and other __29__ are far less likely to attack when they feel they are being watched. As conservation areas become smaller, lions are increasingly coming into contact with human populations，which are expanding to the __30__ of these protected areas.Efforts like painting eyes on cow butts may seem crazy at first, but they could make actual headway in the fight for conservation. "If the method works, it could provide farmers in Botswana --and __31__ --with a low-cost, sustainable tool to protect their livestock, and a way to keep lions safe from being killed." Lions are __32__ ambush （埋伏）hunters, so when they feel their prey has __33__ them, they usually give up on the hunt. Researchers are __34__ testing their idea on a select herd of cattle. They have painted half of the cows with eyes and left the other half as normal. Through satellite tracking of both the herd and the lions in the area, they will be able to __35__ if their psychological trickery will work to help keep farmers fromshooting lions.A) advancesB) boundariesC) challengingD) currentlyE) determineF) devisingG) elsewhereH) neverthelessI) otherwiseJ) predatorsK) primarilyL) retortedM) spottedN) testimoniesO) wrestleSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Resilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You EndureA) As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old, we sometimes fantasize about how much work we can do when one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies. We race to get all our ground work done: packing, going through security, doing a last-minute work call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have that amazing work session in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with (继续处理）the emails that have inevitably still piled up.B) Why should flying deplete us? We're just sitting there doing nothing. Why can't we be tougher, more resilient (有复原力的）and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of the goals we set for ourselves? Based on our current research, we have come to realize that the problem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes from a misconception of what it means to be resilient, andthe resulting impact of overworking.C) We often take a militaristic, "tough" approach to resilience and determination like a Marine pulling himself through the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football player picking himself up off the ground for one more play. We believe that the longer we tough it out, the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this entire conception is scientifically inaccurate.D) The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to be resilient and successful. Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack of recovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems. And lack of recovery-whether by disrupting sleep with thoughts of work or having continuous cognitive arousal by watching our phones-is costing our companies $62 billion a year in lost productivity.E) And just because work stops, it doesn't mean we are recovering. We "stop" work sometimes at 5pm, but then we spend the night wrestling with solutions to work problems, talking about our work over dinner, and falling asleep thinking about how much work we'll do tomorrow. In a study just released, researchers from Norway found that 7. 8% of Norwegians have become workaholics (工作狂）. The scientists cite a definition of "workaholism" as "being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort in work that it impairs other important life areas."F) We believe that the number of people who fit that definition includes the majority of American workers, which prompted us to begin a study of workaholism in the U. S. Our study will use a large corporate dataset from a major medical company to examine how technology extends our working hours and thus interferes with necessary cognitive recovery, resulting in huge health care costs and turnover costs for employers.G) The misconception of resilience is often bred from an early age. Parents trying to teach their children resilience might celebrate a high school student staying up until 3am to finish a science fair project.What a distortion of resilience! A resilient child is a well-rested one. When an exhausted student goes to school, he risks hurting everyone on the road with his impaired driving; he doesn't have the cognitive resources to do well on his English test; he has lower self-control with his friends; and at home, he is moody with his parents. Overwork and exhaustion are the opposite of resilience and the bad habits we acquire when we're young only magnify when we hit the workforce.H) As Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz have written, if you have too much time in the performance zone, you need more time in the recovery zone, otherwise you risk burnout. Gathering your resources to "try hard" requires burning energy in order toovercome your currently low arousal level. It also worsens exhaustion. Thus the more imbalanced we become due to overworking, the more value there is in activities that allow us to return to a state of balance. The value of a recovery period rises in proportion to the amount of work required of us.I) So how do we recover and build resilience? Most people assume that if you stop doing a task like answering emails or writing a paper, your brain will naturally recover, so that when you start again later in the day or the next morning, you'll have your energy back. But surely everyone reading this has had times when you lie in bed for hours, unable to fall asleep because your brain is thinking about work. If you lie in bed for eight hours, you may have rested, but you can still feel exhausted the next day. That's because rest and recovery are not the same thing.J) If you're trying to build resilience at work, you need adequate internal and external recovery periods. As researchers Zijlstra, Cropley and Rydstedt write in their 2014 paper: "Internal recovery refers to the shorter periods of relaxation that take place within the frames of the work day or the work setting in the form of short scheduled or unscheduled breaks, by shifting attention or changing to other work tasks when the mental or physical resources required for the initial task are temporarily depleted or exhausted. External recovery refers to actions that take place outside of work-e.g. in the free time between the work days, and during weekends, holidays or vacations. " If after work you lie around on your bed and get irritated by political commentary on your phone or get stressed thinking about decisions about how to renovate your home, your brain has not received a break from high mental arousal states. Our brains need a rest as much as our bodies do.K) If you really want to build resilience, you can start by strategically stopping. Give yourself the resources to be tough by creating internal and external recovery periods. Amy Blankson describes how to strategically stop during the day by using technology to control overworking. She suggests downloading the Instant or Moment apps to see how many times you turn on your phone each day. You can also use apps like Offtime or Unplugged to create tech free zones by strategically scheduling automatic airplane modes. The average person turns on their phone 150 times every day. If every distraction took only 1 minute, that would account for 2. 5 hours a day.L) In addition, you can take a cognitive break every 90 minutes to charge your batteries. Try to not have lunch at your desk, but instead spend time outside or with your friends-not talking about work. Take all of your paid time off, which not only gives you recovery periods, but raises your productivity and likelihood of promotion. M) As for us, we've started using our plane time as a work-free zone, and thus time to dip into the recovery phase. The results have been fantastic. We are usually tired already by the time we get on a plane, and the crowded space and unstable internet connection make work more challenging. Now, instead of swimming upstream, werelax, sleep, watch movies, or listen to music. And when we get off the plane, instead of being depleted, we feel recovered and ready to return to the performance zone. 36.It has been found that inadequate recovery often leads to poor health and accidents.37.Mental relaxation is much needed, just as physical relaxation is.38.Adequate rest not only helps one recover, but also increases one's work efficiency.39.The author always has a hectic time before taking a flight.40.Recovery may not take place even if one seems to have stopped working.41.It is advised that technology be used to prevent people from overworking.42.Contrary to popular belief, rest does not equal recovery.43.The author has come to see that his problem results from a misunderstanding of the meaning of resilience.44.People's distorted view about resilience may have developed from their upbringing.45.People tend to think the more determined they are, the greater their success will be.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Children with attention problems in early childhood were 40% less likely to graduate from high school, says a new study from Duke University.The study included 386 kindergarteners from schools in the Fast Track Project, a multi-site clinical trial in the U. S. that in 1991 began tracking how children developed across their lives.With this study, researchers examined early academic attention and socio-emotional skills and how each contributed to academic success into young adulthood.They found that early attention skills were the most consistent predictor of academic success, and that likability by peers also had a modest effect on academic performance.By fifth grade, children with early attention difficulties had lower grades and reading achievement scores than their peers. As fifth-graders, children with early attention problems obtained average reading scores at least 3% lower than their contemporaries' and grades at least 8% lower than those of their peers. This was after controlling for IQ, socio-economic status and academic skills at school entry.Although these may not seem like large effects, the impact of early attention problems continued throughout the children's academic careers. Lower reading achievement scores and grades in fifth grade contributed to reduced grades in middle school and thereby contributed to a 40% lower high school graduation rate. "The children we identified as having attention difficulties were not diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (注意力缺乏多动症）(ADHD), although some may have had the disorder. Our findings suggest that even more modest attention difficulties can increase the risk of negative academic outcomes", said David Rabiner, an associate dean of Duke's Trinity College of Arts & Sciences, whose research has focused on ADHD and interventions to improve academic performance in children with attention difficulties.Social acceptance by peers in early childhood also predicted grades in fifth grade. Children not as liked by their first-grade peers had slightly lower grades in fifth grade, while those with higher social acceptance had higher grades."This study shows the importance of so-called ‘non-cognitive' or soft skills in contributing to children's positive peer relationships, which, in turn, contribute to their academic success, " said Kenneth Dodge, director of the Duke Center for Child and Family Policy.The results highlight the need to develop effective early interventions to help those with attention problems stay on track academically and for educators to encourage positive peer relationships, the researchers said."We're learning that student success requires a more comprehensive approach, one that incorporates not only academic skills but also social, self-regulatory and attention skills, " Dodge said. "If we neglect any of these areas, the child's development lags. If we attend to these areas, a child's success may reinforce itself with positive feedback loops. "46. What is the focus of the new study from Duke University?A) The contributors to children's early attention.B) The predictors of children's academic success.C) The factors that affect children's emotional well-being.D) The determinants of children's development of social skills.47. How did the researchers ensure that their findings are valid?A) By attaching equal importance to all possible variables examined.B) By collecting as many typical samples as were necessary.C) By preventing them from being affected by factors not under study.D) By focusing on the family background of the children being studied.48. What do we learn from the findings of the Duke study?A) Modest students are generally more attentive thаn their contemporaries.B) There are more children with attention difficulties than previously thought.C) Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder accounts for most academic failures.D) Children's academic performance may suffer from even slight inattention.49. What does the Duke study find about children better accepted by peers?A) They do better academically. C) They are teachers' favorites.B) They are easy to get on with. D) They care less about grades.50. What can we conclude from the Duke study?A) Children's success is related to their learning environment.B) School curriculum should cover a greater variety of subjects.C) Social skills are playing a key role in children's development.D) An all-round approach should be adopted in school education.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.On Jan. 9, 2007, Steve Jobs formally announced Apple's "revolutionary mobile phone"—a device that combined the functionality of an iPod, phone and Internet communication into a single unit, navigated by touch.It was a huge milestone in the development of smartphones, which are now owned by a majority of American adults and are increasingly common across the globe.As smartphones have multiplied, so have questions about their impact on how we live and how we work. Often the advantages of convenient, mobile technology are both obvious and taken for granted, leaving more subtle topics for concerned discussion:Are smartphones disturbing children's sleep? Is an inability to get away from work having a negative impact on health? And what are the implications for privacy?But today, on the 10th anniversary of the iPhone, let's take a moment to consider a less obvious advantage: the potential for smartphone technology to revolutionize behavioral science. That's because, for the first time in human history, a large proportion of the species is in continuous contact with technology that can record key features of an individual's behavior and environment.Researchers have already begun to use smartphones in social scientific research, either to query people regularly as they engage in their normal lives or to record activity using the device's built-in sensors. These studies are confirming, challenging and extending what's been found using more traditional approaches, in which people report how they behaved in real life or participate in relatively short and artificial laboratory-based tasks.Such studies are just first steps. As more data are collected and methods foranalysis improve, researchers will be in a better position to identify how different experiences, behaviors and environments relate to each other and evolve over time, with the potential to improve people's productivity and wellbeing in a variety of domains. Beyond revealing population-wide patterns, the right combination of data and analysis can also help individuals identify unique characteristics of their own behavior, including conditions that could indicate the need for some form of intervention—such as an unusual increase in behaviors that signal a period of depression. Smartphone-based data collection comes at an appropriate time in the evolution of psychological science. Today, the field is in transition, moving away from a focus on laboratory studies with undergraduate participants towards more complex, real-world situations studied with more diverse groups of people. Smartphones offer new tools for achieving these ambitions, providing rich data about everyday behaviors in a variety of contexts.So here's another way in which smartphones might transform the way we live and work: by offering insights into human psychology and behavior and, thus, supporting smarter social science.51. What does the author say about the negative impact of smartphones?A) It has been overshadowed by the positive impact.B) It has more often than not been taken for granted.C) It is not so obvious but has caused some concern.D) It is subtle but should by no means be overstated.52. What is considered a less obvious advantage of smartphone technology?A) It systematically records real human interactions.B) It helps people benefit from technological advances.C) It brings people into closer contact with each other.D) It greatly improves research on human behavior.53. What characterizes traditional psychological research?A) It is based on huge amounts of carefully collected data.B) It relies on lab observations and participants' reports.C) It makes use of the questionnaire method.D) It is often expensive and time-consuming.54. How will future psychological studies benefit individuals?A) By helping them pin down their unusual behaviors.B) By helping them maintain a positive state of mind.C) By helping them live their lives in a unique way.D) By helping them cope with abnormal situations.55. What do we learn about current psychological studies?A) They are going through a period of painful transition.B) They are increasingly focused on real-life situations.C) They are conducted in a more rigorous manner.D) They are mainly targeted towards undergraduates.Part IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2.近年来，中国政府进一步加大体育馆建设投资，以更好地满足人们快速增长的健身需求。

![[英语六级作文]2018年12月大学英语六级作文真题解析](https://360docs-1393072327.cos.ap-beijing.myqcloud.com/e2c94984c281e53a5902ff37.webp)
2018年12月六级作文解析 总述： 本次六级写作题目“how to balance academic study and extra curriculum activities/ job responsibilities and personal interests/ work and leisure”，是典型的解决问题的方式的议论文。
第一道题和当代大学生息息相关，涉及到学业和课余活动的关系的平衡，第二道题和第三道题的难度大于第一道题，涉及到如何处理工作和个人兴趣/娱乐的关系，但第二、三道题是比较同质化的两道题。
由于考生尚未工作，所以第二、三道题可能会让考生觉得陌生而难以下笔。
但是第二、三题的思考角度仍然可以从大学生自身角度出发，将自己平衡学业和课余活动的经验合理引申和想象，构成第二、三道题的论点。
写作思路 中心词：写作时要特别注意中心短语“how to balance”，核心段要紧紧围绕该词组展开。
写作主体：第一道题要以大学生为主体，第二、三道题主体可以选择诸如“people”, “employees”等为主体。
第一段：首段的写作任务一般来说是给出简短的背景介绍和分析，比如介绍当今大学生课外活动日益丰富，以至于他们面临着如何平衡学业和课余活动之间的关系的问题;比如介绍当今社会人们的工作负担繁重，必须学会解决如何平衡工作和个人兴趣/休闲之间的关系的问题。
第二段：核心段要围绕着how to balance平行展开两到三个论点，具体阐述几点措施。
比如对于大学生而言，要注意合理规划和分配在课余活动之中的时间;对于工作的人而言，可以制定科学的时间表，在完成了自己工作的情况下要多发展自己的兴趣，要多注意展开各种休闲活动来平衡自己在工作中的压力等等。
由于六级作文的篇幅限制，一般写两到三个论点即可，这两到三个论点平行展开。
第三段：第三段的写作任务是就第二段提出的解决方法进行总结，或者对相关方进行建议、倡议、号召，或对未来进行期盼和展望，不必很具体化，言简意赅地收尾。

However, in today's fast-paced work culture, it's difficult for most people to successfully maintain a good balance between the two.As for me, some tips can contribute to achieving the balance. First of all, you should develop efficient working habits, because only in this way can you squeeze out some leisure time. It requires you to devote your full attention to the task at hand and complete daily work efficiently. Second, in order to relieve the fatigue and stress, it's vital to schedule one thing that you are interested in each day and set aside some time for relaxation. Last but not least, for those workaholics, please keep in mind that if you work hard, you shouldn't feel guilty when you spend time on personal leisure, for entertainment is also a part of life.To conclude, work and leisure complement each other, so when you get tired and bored with your daily grind, try to take some time off work to relax yourself.Part II Listening Comprehension (30 minutes)Section ADirections:In this section, you will hear two long conversations.

You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Just off the coast of Southern California sits Santa Cruz Island, where a magical creature called the island fox _F_26_dwells_. A decade ago, this island's ecosystem 生态系统 was in _B_27_chaos混乱的_ Wild pigs attracted golden eagles from the mainland, and those flying _L_28_predators捕食者、食肉动物_ crashed the fox population. So the Nature Conservancy launched a _H_29_fierce凶猛、凶狠_ war against the pigs, complete with helicopters直升机 and sharp shooters.And it worked. Today, federal agencies are pulling the island fox from the Endangered Species List. It's the fastest-ever recovery of a mammal哺乳动物, joining peers 同龄人、同事 like the Louisiana black bear as glowing successes in the history of the Endangered濒临灭绝的 Species Act.But the recovery of Santa Cruz Island isn't just about the fox. The Nature Conservancy 保护、管理 has _D_30_declared_ war on a multitude of大量、一大批 invasive入侵的、侵略性的 species here, from sheep to plants to the _A_31_aggressive侵略性的、好斗的、有进取心的_ Argentine ant阿根廷蚂蚁."Our philosophy with the island has always been, 'OK, _M_32_remove _ the threats and let the island go back to what it was," says ecologist Christina Boser. And it appears to be working. Native plants are coining back, and the fox once again bounds about carefree.But keeping those foxes from harm will occupy Boser and her colleagues for years to come. You see, humans are still allowed on Santa Cruz Island, and they bring dogs. So Boser has to vaccinate her foxes against various diseases. "We're obligated to keep a pulse on the population for at least five years after the foxes are delisted," says Boser. That includes tagging标记、标签 the foxes and _K_33_monitoring监视、监测_ their numbers to ensure nothing goes wrong.This is the story of the little fox that has come back, and the people who have _E_34_dedicated奉献_ their lives to protecting it. This is the story of wildlife 野生动植物 conservation保护、保存、保持 in the age of mass _G_35_extinction灭绝、消灭_.A) aggressive B) chaos C) configuration D) declared E) dedicated F) dwells G) extinction H) fierce I) hinders J) mammal K) monitoring L) predators M) remove N) tempt O) underlyingSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Do Parents Invade Children's Privacy When They Post Photos Online?A) When Katlyn Burbidge's son was 6 years old, he was performing some ridiculous song and dance typical of a first-grader. But after she snapped a photo and started using her phone, he asked her a serious question: "Are you going to post that online?"She laughed and answered, "Yes, I think I will." What he said next stopped her. "Can you not?"B) That's when it dawned on her: She had been posting photos of him online without asking his permission. "We're big advocates of bodily autonomy and not forcing him to hug or kiss people unless he wants to, but it never occurred to me that I should ask his permission to post photos of him online," says Burbidge, a mom of two in Wakefield, Massachusetts. "Now when I post a photo of him online, I show him the photo and get his okay. "C) When her 8-month-old is 3 or 4 years old, she plans to start asking him in an age-appropriate way, "Do you want other people to see this?" That’s precisely the approach that two researchers advocated before a room of pediatricians （儿科医生）last week at the American Academy of Pediatrics meeting, when they discussed the 21st century challenge of "sharenting", a new term for parents' online sharing about their children. "As advocates of children's rights, we believe that children should have a voice about what information is shared about them if possible", says Stacey Steinberg, a legal skills professor at the University of Florida Levin College of Law in Gainesville.D) Whether it's ensuring that your child isn't bullied over something you post, that their identity isn't digitally "kidnapped", or that their photos don't end up on a half dozen child pornography (色情） sites, as one Australian mom discovered, parents and pediatricians are increasingly aware of the importance of protecting children's digital presence. Steinberg and Bahareh Keith, an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Florida College of Medicine, say most children will likely never experience problems related to what their parents share, but a tension still exists between parents' rights to share their experiences and their children's rights to privacy.E) "We're in no way trying to silence parents, voices," Steinberg says. "At the same time, we recognize that children might have an interest in entering adulthood free to create their own digital footprint. "They cited a study presented earlier this year of 249 pairs of parents and their children in which twice as many children as parents wanted rules on what par ents could share. "The parents said, ‘We don't need rules-we're fine,’ and the children said, ‘Our parents need rules,’ Keith says. "The children wanted autonomy about this issue and were worried about their parents sharing information about them. "F) Although the American Academy of Pediatrics offers guidelines recommending that parents model appropriate social media use for their children, it does not explicitly discuss oversharing by parents. "I think this is a very legitimate concern, and I appreciate their drawing our attention to it", David Hill, a father of five, says. He sees a role for pediatricians to talk with parents about this，but believes the messaging must extend far beyond pediatricians, offices. "I look forward to seeing researchers expand our understanding of the issue so we can translate it into effective education and policy," he says.。

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1The measures taken by countries around the world in recent years to cut greenhouse gas emissions have fallen well short of what is needed to avoid dangerous climate change, according to research led by the International Energy Agency. The study indicates that global emissions have risen 65% since 1990, but estimates that a decrease of 51% by 2030 is needed to limit warming to 2°C above pre-industrial levels. The research also found that the number of people without electricity access in the developing world fell to 1billion for the first time last year, but that population growth could enable this to rise again. It concluded that countries must increase their use of renewable energy to meet climate targets.6. What does the research conducted by the International Energy Agency find?A. Countries worldwide have successfully reduced greenhouse gas emissions.B. Worldwide measures on greenhouse gas emissions have fallen shortof the target.C. Global emissions have declined 65% since 1990.D. The earth is unlikely to warm 2°C by 2030.7. What does the International Energy Agency suggest countries to do to meet climate targets?A. Cut greenhouse gas emissions by 65%.B. Limit warming to 2°C above industrial levels.C. Increase the use of renewable energy.D. Reduce population growth in developing countries.Text 2American drivers who want to save on their gas bills should take a good look at the country's pump prices. Although they are cheap compared with many other countries ― around half the cost in much of Europe ― they still vary widely across America, which is costing some drivers thousands ofdollars each year. The differences can be explained by a combination of tax rates, transport costs and government environmental compliance regulations. Some of the key factors affecting the prices are outlined below.- Tax rates: Each state has different rates of tax on gasoline. Federal taxes account for 18.4 cents per gallon.- Transport costs: Remote areas often have higher fuel prices due to the high cost of transporting it there.- Environmental regulations: Federal regulations require at least 10% ethanol (乙醇) to be added to the gasoline supply. However, the target is harder to meet in some regions due to a lack of refineries and pipelines.8. Why is gasoline cheaper in America than in Europe?A. Gasoline is taxed less in America.B. Transport costs are lower in America.C. Environmental regulations are stricter in America.D. There are more refineries and pipelines in America.9. What does the underlined word "outlined" in the second paragraph mean?A. DrawnB. DiscussedC. AnalyzedD. DesiredText 3Sofia Coppola, the daughter of Francis Ford Coppola, was born into a film-making family on May 14, 1971 in New York City. She made her screen debut in 1972's "The Godfather" when she was an infant, playing thebaby being christened (给...施洗礼) in the climatic Baptism (施洗礼) Massacre (大屠杀) sequence (片段). As a girl she didn't want to become an actress, citing an aversion (厌恶) to the trappings (陷阱) of the movie business. There was also the fact that her parents divorced when she was 3 years old (leading to her mother's going off to live in France and Sofia's living with her father in northern California).She studied Fine Art at the prestigious California Institute of Arts in Los Angeles, preferring painting to film-making, but also making an experimental short, "Bed Demon," in her spare time. This attracted the attention of George Lucas, who hired her to work on the final chapter of "Star Wars," "Return of the Jedi." During the production of the film, she met Spike Jonze, a director who shared her love of fashion and pop music. They were married at the tender age of 27, but soon separated because, some say, her fame eclipsed (使黯然失色) his.10. When did Sofia Coppola appear in "The Godfather"?A. In 1971.B.

[英语六级作文]2018年12月英语六级作文真题 第3套：如何平衡学习和课外活动
How to Balance Academic Study and Extracurricular Activities Many students and their parents worry that spending time on extracurricular activities will hinder academic study which is understandable. But as for me, as long as we can strike a balance between them, proper participation in extracurricular activities will not only promote academic study, but also enhance our overall abilities. First of all, it's advisable to schedule our schoolwork reasonably and finish it efficiently, for only in this way can we allocate extra time and energy to take part in extracurricular activities, which will have no negative impact on our academic study. Secondly, we should only spend time on activities we want to participate in, which will bring us enjoyment and relieve the academic pressure to some extent. Thirdly, we can also join clubs where we can meet like- minded people and improve our skills which are useful for our academic study. In a word, only by studying more efficiently and arranging extracurricular activities more rationally can we achieve a real balance between academic study and extracurricular activities. 来源:可可英语 How to Balance Academic Study and Extracurricular Activities Many students and their parents worry that spending time on extracurricular activities will hinder academic study which is understandable.

Therefore, how to balance academic study and extracurriculum activities becomes one of heated topics among college students. For my part, both academic study and extracurriculum activities are critical to college students. On the one hand, there is no doubt in saying that college students should give priority to their academic study, since it contributes directly to their expertise, job hunting as well as academic achievements. On the other hand, extracurriculum activities also plays an indispensable role in college life in that extracurriculum activities like basketball, soccer and so on can relax ourselves, relieve our pressure and most importantly, enhance physical fitness. All these factors are vital to a efficient way of academic study. In conclusion, it is high time that college students should paid close attention to taking part in appropriate extracurriculum activities. Only in this way can they be engaged in academic studies and hold a positive attitude toward college life. 【参考译文】 当前，随着竞争变得加剧，越来越多的大学生处在巨大的压力之下，这对他们的身心健康带来了很多负面影响。
