如何使用本押题？
四六级题目现在越来越灵活，反模板趋势明显。本押题并非规范的文章，而是提供了相关话题的素材，考场上可以进行灵活运用，考试不会一模一样考到，但是有很多的语言思路都可以用上。
简单地说，这个押题就是让大家准备一些素材！早中晚各抽出20分钟看一些素材，可以记诵一些你特别喜欢的句子。
请持续关注本微博内容：会有复习指导的视频。
导语：历史上关于校园类、教育类考过的话题非常多。四级的预测重点还是在一些比较常规但是又贴近生活的文章上，建议各位同学要从身边找素材。比如：介绍下去图书馆（library）的好处；住校（dorm/dormitory）的优缺点；考试的优缺点，兼职的优缺点；专业文（liberalarts）理（science）艺（art）的好处；娱乐活动（recreational activities）的优缺点；甚至食堂（canteen）的食物。大家都可以思考。又比如：介绍你在大学里学习上的挑战（包括学习外语）；生活上的困难；甚至让你印象深刻的事情等。六级更倾向于考一些议论类话题，与课程、就业、兼职有关。
素材1：图书馆的好处（与口语类似，一旦遇到要谈论一件事情的优缺点，如果没有素材一般建议往：拓展视野、交到朋友、放松心情等万能理由着手）
Libraries are at the very heart of a university. The librarycontains numerous historical references and much useful information on varioussubjects. A student can spend many hours in doing research for their homework, reportsand term papers. In the library, one can enrich his life（丰富生活）, broadenhis mind（扩展思维）, and expand his range of knowledge（扩展知识面）. Also, astudent can widen his circle of friends （拓展朋友圈）in thelibrary. One can find friends with the common interest（交到志同道合的朋友）.Besides, nowadays, college life tends to be very stressful. Going to thelibrary can relax our minds and release our pressure（放松心情）.
素材2：关于兼职、就业、创业（这类话题比较万能，可以涉及方方面面的题目，大家要学会去灵活嵌套嫁接，理解思路，切不可死记硬背），该文章顺便让大家回顾下“现象解释型”的套路
The past several years have witnessed a burgeoning economy in China.However, it is increasingly difficult for college undergraduates to find adecent job. （第一段讲述找工作难的现象）
There are several factors contributing to this social phenomenon. Tobegin with, as the job market is getting gloomy（劳动市场低迷） and competitionis becoming fierce（竞争激烈）, college students should be well equipped with（拥有）practicalexperience while still in college. Their summer andwinter holidays should be used to gain valuable work experience. Moreover,the expectations of employment（工作预期）play an importantpart. A large number of graduates tend to give first priority to （优先考虑）earningsand aim for well-paid positions in foreign companies or big banks. Since they won’t accept any poorly-paid job, many opportunitieshave been lost. As a result, graduates should aim to accept any job offers theyreceive now. Last but not least, many employers do require job applicants tohave a degree（学历）related to the job. College students could improve their careerprospects by receiving further education, whether for a master or a doctoraldegree（硕士或博士）. One has to have additional education to get an edge（获得优势）.Education is indeed a worthwhile investment in the future. （第二段现象解释：学生实践经验需要加强；工作预期高；学历仍需提高）
Following ways can be adopted to address the problem. Among manysolutions, gaining work experience while still at university and havingrealistic expectations of salaries are extremely vital. Also, starting your ownbusiness will also be an option. Running a new business is a valuable learningexperience and skill builder.（第三段问题解决：获取经验，合理预期，自主创业）
这篇文章的素材甚至可以用在很多曾经考过的题目中：大学排名；考证热等。
导语：文化类不得不防，尽管考得并不多，比如读书的好处，保护中国传统文化，保护古建筑，学习中文的重要性，中西方文化融合等。六级曾经考过令人发指的“名字重不重要”。
素材3：阅读的好处（仔细看看，和去图书馆的好处可以说思路一模一样）
Reading is of utmost importance for one’slife. Firstly, a good book is our faithful friend（忠实的朋友）. Reading canincrease our contentment（增加满足感）when we are cheerful and happy, and can lessen our pain（减缓疼痛） when weare sad or lonely. Secondly, reading can help people to relax and unwind（放松）. Few ofus can travel far from home, but all of us can savor（品尝）a widerange of experiences through reading. Besides, reading can also increase ourknowledge and skills, broaden our horizons and make us wise.
素材4：这类问题很容易出现在四级考试中，推荐给你朋友一部电影、一本书或者一首歌曲等。
Write a letter to a friend of yours torecommend one of your favorite books and give your reasons for yourrecommendation.
Dear Frank,
I haven’t seen you for a long time. How are you doing? I am writingthis letter for the purpose of recommending one of my favorite book series toyou, Harry Potter.
This book series consist of seven books. They tell a story ofadventure about Harry potter and his friends fighting against the Dark Lord. Themeaning of the book series, as far as I am concerned, is to tell us that loveis powerful. Harry Potter is invincible because his mother Lily tried tosave him by sacrificing her own life. In addition, the books are reallyexciting and cliff-hanging. The plots are well-designed, capturing myattention all along. I still remember how I read the last book of this series.I stayed in my house the whole day without eating anything. The story of HarryPotter is magical but logical.
I hope you can enjoy the books. I am looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Ken
素材5：中国传统文化（这段是网络对于文化的冲击，更偏向于六级同学）
The Internet could exert a hugeimpact on our traditional cultures. Over the course（进程） of thousandsof years, the Chinese people have created their own unique customs andtraditions, and passed them on from one generation to the next. However, agrowing number of people become increasingly concerned that China’s culturalheritage（文化遗产） could become marginalized（边缘化） or evendisappear entirely. The Internet has brought more and more western cultures toChina and children are more likely to be exposed in the western cultures. Thereis a danger that age-old customs and traditions may become lost in the shadowsof modernization.
导语：尽管新技术和互联网已经考过好多次了，包括上次六级考试。但是仍然是热点，只是出题角度会不同。上次我押中了在线课堂好，新技术，虚拟网络。这次我认为这个元素仍可能出现，比如让四级的同学写一下手机的作用，让六级同学写下信息安全问题，都有可能。这篇文章顺便帮大家回顾下正反观点型的写法，然后我设计方法观点为信息泄露，大家可以引起注意。
素材6：网络信息以及其安全问题
The Internet has penetratedevery aspect of daily life. For example, Microblogsand Wechat are two forms of new media. Various people, regardless of their age,gender or background（不论他们的年龄、性别和背景）, are involving in creating their own microblogs （微博）and using Wechat（微信）.
Opinions vary greatly when it comesto whether these new technology is a boon/blessing（福利） or abane/curse（祸害）. Some argue that technology innovation really brings us muchconvenience. With the Internet, the home becomes a library, a school, an officeand an entertainment center. All transactions（交易） can be conductedonline, and all information can be obtained with a click of the mouse. However,others people adopt a completely different view. They insist that there is morelikely to be information leakage（信息泄露） with the development of computer technology, and personal privacycannot be secured. For example, I registered an account（注册账号） in an onlineshopping website with my ID number and phone number. Shortly after that I receiveddozens of phone calls from some companies selling their insurance.
Owing to the accelerated pace ofcontemporary life, people’s work and life are increasingly confined to a narrowspace. However, in face of new technology, weshould be prudent（谨慎）. On the macro level, the government and authority should makerelevant policies and measures. On the micro level, we should learn to makerational use of the Internet and protect our own information.
导语：目前社会面临的问题，包括环境、城市化、老龄化将会成为一个热点。环境和健康呼声很高，不论考不考，这些素材都可能被用上。个人比较看好身体健康，所以素材8非常不错，推荐！
素材7：环境污染
We aresuffering greatly from the environmental destruction. Recent years havewitnessed a rapid increase in the number of urban motor vehicles（都市机动车辆）. Their emissions contributesignificantly to air pollution and are a major ingredient in creation of smog（烟雾） in some large cities. Thefundamental way in which the government addresses the problem of environmentalpollution is to raise the environmental awareness of the public. Environmentalprotection is caring about ourselves and ensuring environmental sustainabilityfor future generation.
素材8：锻炼作用
Regularphysical activity can strengthen the heart and make us fit and healthy. A lackof physical activity can increase our risk of health problems. Exercises canalso improve mental health by reducing our stress level. This is especiallyimportant for people leading fast-paced lives. Moreover, exercise can stillhelp to boost our self-confidence（增加自信）and give us a greater sense of control（给予更强自控力）.
素材9：两代关系
There exists some misunderstandingsbetween parents and their children. The young are more educated and more influencedby western civilization. They believe in spending money rather than saving it.They are not so dependent on their parents. They are more self-centered and donot blindly follow their parents’ ideas. They tend to have their own philosophyof life. However, everyone still has the duty to take care of our parents,especially when they are old and sick. Also an increasing aging population willhave enormous consequences for any society.
导语：引言类的文章非常容易涉及精神品质（独立、坚持、信心、合作和乐观等），成功的要素，以及诚信之类的道德问题。四六级考试近几年均有涉及，可以想象让年轻人树立正确的观念，这是国家本来的目标。对于这类文章，素材实在太多了，建议大家学会背诵一些万能句子，以备考试。同时重视类似偶像崇拜、广告效应、过度包装，这类主题都可以采用，毕竟树立正确的价值观基本是万能的句式。
素材10：态度和观念（天龙八部里面就有，翻译详见第一篇文章）
Life is ten percent what you make it andninety percent how you take it. The value of life lies not in the length ofdays, but in the use we make of them. So having right values in life is veryimportant for us, especially youngsters. The young always give up because theproblem is beyond their ability to cope with. It is well-known that we exist ina dynamic world with various difficulties. We can do nothing but face them. Attitudeis the key point to take the first step.
素材11：诚信
Odd and funny as they sound, such falsepromises can be seen and heard everywhere in our country. I dare say that oursociety is suffering corruption（腐败） and cheat（欺骗） which are causing damage to societyboth materially and morally（道德上地）. But one should know that by dishonest words no onecan survive the intense competition under market economy system（不诚信无法在竞争的市场上存活）. They shouldremember the old saying, “Honesty is the best policy”.（诚信是最好的政策）
学习下该主题的主要词汇：
以下这些都是名词，括号里是形容词！
独立：independence(independent); 坚持：persistence(persistent);勤奋：diligence(diligent); 缺乏信心：lack of confidence; 合作：cooperation (cooperative); 乐观：optimism(optimistic)
补充：曾经在四级考试中考过春季联欢晚会要不要取消，而专四曾经出过令人发指的如何庆祝端午节。所以请大家一定要重视：万一题目出得很偏，反模板直接让你描述你如何度过春季或者节日，这里附上一些元宵节的素材，有时间看一下，因为元宵节和春节有些类似。
On the Lantern Festival , people usuallyeat sweet dumpling as the traditional food for the day. Shaping like a pyramid,it is made with sticky rice flour and filled with sweet stuffing. After dinner,people will go on streets with a variety of lanterns under the full moon and watcha parade of lion dancing. Lantern riddle gathering is held. All kinds oflanterns have a riddle on each of them. People who guess them right can get asmall gift. The lantern festival will bring us peace, prosperity and good luck forthe New Year.

参考例文：
The pie chart provides someinteresting data regarding the purposes of traveling among students in acertain university. Those students who travel for enjoying the scenery and forreleasing the pressure account for 37% and 33% respectively, ranking the firstand second among the five categories. Only 9% of the students travel fordeveloping independence and 6% for making friends. The percentage of studentstravelling for other reasons is 15%.
Several reasons could explain thissocial phenomenon. The very contributory factors lie in the educational system.Nowadays in China, as the population has increased exponentially for the pastdecade, college students are encouraged to study extremely hard, competing forhigh grades and decent jobs. Consequently, they have been “locked up” in theuniversity for a longtime, which leads to their curiosity to see the outsideworld and the urge to get rid of the stress. Moreover, this situation could beseen as the results of the social impact. With the availability of the internetand widespread of the interactive forum, students are more likely to obtaininformation about tourism. For example, Qiongyou is a website which providesadequate materials for tourists, such as the introduction of beautiful cities,the strategy of travelling to a new place, the means of taking attractivepictures. Students with the information are enticed to explore the unknownworld on their own.
Given the factors I have justoutlined, college students are more likely to travel for enjoyment andpleasure. I personally believe this trend is positive, since travellingpromotes courage, eliminates boundary and iron out misunderstanding. The worldis becoming smaller and smaller. Moreover, students are finding the right wayto restore their energy, which should be greatly advocated.
