H)enthusiasm Section B Directions: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.The College Essay:Why Those 500 Words Drive Us Crazy A)Meg is a lawyer-mom in suburban Washington,D.C.,where lawyer-moms are thick on the ground.Her son Doug is one of several hundred thousand high-school seniors who had a painful fall.The deadline for applying to his favorite college was Nov.1,and by early October he had yet to fill out the application.More to the point,he had yet to settle on a subject for the personal essay accompanying the application.According to college folklore,a well-turned essay has the power to seduce(诱惑)an admissions committee.“He wanted to do one thing at a time,”Meg says,explaining her sons delay.“But really,my son is a huge procrastinator(拖延者).The essay is the hardest thing to do,so hes put it off the longest.”Friends and other veterans of the process have warned Meg that the back and forth between editing parent and writing student can be traumatic(痛苦的).B)Back in the good old days say,two years ago,when the last of my children suffered the ordeal(折磨)a high-school student applying to college could procrastinate all the way to New Years Day of their senior year,assuming they could withstand the parental pestering(烦扰).But things change fast in the nail-biting world of college admissions.The recent trend toward early decision and early action among selective colleges and universities has pushed the traditional deadline of January up to Nov.1 or early December for many students.C)If the time for heel-dragging has been shortened,the true source of the anxiety and panic remains what it has always been.And its not the application itself.A college application is a relatively straightforward questionnaire asking for the basics:name,address,family history employment history.It would all be innocent enough20 minutes of busy workexcept it comes attached to a personal essay.D)“There are good reasons it causes such anxiety,”says Lisa Sohmer,director of college counseling at the Garden School in Jackson Heights,N.Y.“It s not just the actual writing.By noweverything else is already set.Your course load is set,your grades are set,your test scores are set.But the essay is something you can still control,and its open-ended.So the temptation is to write and rewrite and rewrite.”Or stall and stall and stall.E)The application essay,along with its mythical importance,is a recent invention.In the 1930s,when only one in 10 Americans had a degree from a four-year college,an admissionscommit tee was content to ask for a sample of applicants school papers to assess their writing ability.By the 1950s,most schools required a brief personal statement of why the student had chosen to apply to one school over another.F)Today nearly 70 percent of graduating seniors go off to college,including two-year and four-year institutions.Even apart from the increased competition,the kids enter a process that has been utterly transformed from the one baby boomers knew.Nearly all application materials are submitted online,and the Common Application provides a one-size-fits form accepted by more than 400 schools,including the nations most selective.题卡上作答欢迎下载注意此部分试题请在答题卡上作答欢迎下载注意此部分试题请在答题卡上作答欢迎下载指出注意此部分题请在答题卡上作答欢迎下载诱惑拖延者痛苦的折磨烦扰欢迎下载老生常谈孝顺表面上欢迎下载注意此部分的注意此部分试题请在答题卡上作答欢迎下载中国园林是经过三千多年演变而成的独具一格的园林景观它既包括为皇室成员享乐而建造的大型花园也包括学者商人和卸任的政府官员为摆脱嘈杂的外部世界而建造的私家花园这些花园草以及各种各样由蜿蜒的小路和走廊连接的建筑漫步在花园中人们可以看到一系列精心设计的景观如山水画卷一般展现在面前注意此部分试题请在答题卡上作答答案年月大学英语六级考试真题第套请于正式开考后半小时内完成该部-欢迎下载 G)Those schools usually require essays of their own,but the longest essay,500 words maximum,is generally attached to the Common Application.Students choose one of six questions.Applicants are asked to describe an ethical dilemma theyve faced and its impact on them,or discuss a public issue of special concern to them,or tell of a fictional character or creative work that has profoundly influenced them.Another question invites them to write a
