2013年12月大学英语六级合格分数线
日来源：233网校
　　2013年12月英语六级考试将于12月14日下午举行。大学英语四六级考试没有及格一说。六级成绩在520分及以上可以报考口语。
　　英语六级成绩查询2月21日上午9点开通！网速慢？不要急，广大网友为你查分！马上进入：
　　大学英语四六级改革的一项重要内容就是总分改为710分，每个考生会有一个成绩，不再颁发“合格证”。这也意味着，不再有“及格”一说。
　　英语六级多少分过线？英语六级多少分及格？　　425分 学生自估四六级“及格线” 　　虽然四六级改革后不再有“及格”和“不及格”的概念，但大家议论的焦点还是集中在有没有过，那么四六级及格线究竟是多少？ 　　 四级“及格线”425分 　　据了解，大学英语四六级改革的一项重要内容就是总分改为710分，每个考生会有一个成绩，不再颁发“合格证”。这也意味着，不再有“及格”一说。不过，记者在采访中发现，在学校、同学中间，改革后的四六级仍有“及格”这杆秤。 　　 “糟了，我这次只考了410分，又不及格！”“太好了，我考了426分，侥幸通过！”四级考试成绩一公布，同学们拿着自己的成绩对照起来，而对照的标准则是425分。据了解，425分是教育部划定的四级报六级的资格线，但不少同学将之视为四级及格线。 　　根据教育部的要求，高校应将四级考试成绩和学位脱钩。但据南京不少高校的学生反映，虽然学校没有明说要挂钩，他们仍担心四级达不到425分会影响毕业。还有一些学校的学生反映，老师实际上已规定四级必须过425分。 　　 六级也有公认“及格线” 　　如果说将425分的报考六级资格线误认为是四级及格线是情有可原，那么六级的及格线就来得有点没来由了。据了解，在校大学生普遍形成一种说法：425分也是六级的及格线。 　　 “今年六级的及格线是多少？”六级成绩刚公布，不少同学都在急切地询问，而他们从同学口中得到的答案是425分。这个说法在各校的学生间流传，一位学生说，这次班上共有10人过了六级，只占了1/4，其他同学还要再考。 　 　南京某高校教务处负责人表示，六级不存在及格不及格，不发六级证，也不强求学生必须考。他们从没向学生规定六级必须多少分才算过，不知这个及格线从何而 来。记者问一位“通过”六级的同学这个线怎么形成的，他说：“大家都这么认为，没什么好质疑的。”据一些同学反映，他们是根据四级的“及格线”自己划出六 级的“及格线”，因为两者总分一样，应有一定科学性。还有些同学和以前的百分制进行换算，又得出426分的“及格线”。 　　 学习英语负担未减轻 　　据了解，四六级改革取消四六级合格证，是为了给大学生学习英语减负。但据同学们反映，目前学英语的负担并未减轻。 　 　一位大三学生称，可能是思维定势，拿到成绩后总会想着自己有没有过，大家都有这种心态，因此出现“及格线”并不奇怪。从这点上看，学英语的负担还和以前 一样重。而更重要的是，现在改成计分，每个学生拿到手里的都是成绩，用人单位也可以通过成绩将学生的英语水平看得更清楚，因此大家为了拿好成绩需要付出更 多的努力，从这个意义上说，负担反而更重了。为了争取得到更高的成绩，一些学生在“通过”四级或六级后，仍报名参加下一轮的四六级考试。

Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
M: I don&t know what to do. I have to drive to Chicago next Friday for my cousin&s wedding, but I have got a Psychology test to prepare for.
W: Why don&t you record your notes so you can study on the way?
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
M: Professor Wright, you may have to find another student to play this role, the lines are so long and I simply can&t remember them all.
W: Look, Tony. It is still a long time before the first show. I don&t expect you to know all the lines yet. Just keep practicing.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
M: Hello, this is Dr. Martin from the Emergency Department. I have a male patient with a fractured ankle.
W: Oh, we have one bed available in ward 3, send him here and I will take care of him.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?
W: Since Simon will graduate this May, the school paper needs a new editor. So if you are interested, I will be happy to nominate you.
M: Thanks for considering me. But the baseball team is starting up a new season. And I&m afraid I have a lot on my hands.
Q: What does the man mean?
15. W: Have you heard the news that Jame Smeil has resigned his post as prime minister?
M: Well, I got it from the headlines this morning. It&s reported that he made public at this decision at the last cabinet meeting.
Q: what do we learn about Jame Smeil?
16. W: The morning paper says the space shuttle is taking off at 10 a.m. tomorrow.
M: Yeah, it&s just another one of this year&s routine missions. The first mission was undertaken a decade ago and broadcast live then worldwide.
Q: what can we infer from this conversation?
17. M: We do a lot of camping in the mountains. What would you recommend for two people?
W: You&d probably be better off with the four real drive vehicle. We have several off-road trucks in stock, both new and used.
Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
18. W: I hear you did some serious shopping this past weekend.
M: Yeah, the speakers of my old stereo finally gave out and there was no way to repair them.
Q: What did the man do over the weekend?
Conversation One
W: Now, could you tell me where the idea for the business first came from?
M: Well, the original shop was opened by a retired printer by the name of Gruby. Mr Gruby being left-handed himself, thought of the idea to try to promote a few products for left-handers.
W: And how did he then go about actually setting up the business?
M: Well, he looked for any left-handed products that might already be on the market which were very few. And then contacted the manufactures with the idea of having products produced for him, mainly in the scissors range to start with.
W: Right. So you do commission some part of your stock.
M: Yes, very much so. About 75 percent of our stock is specially made for us.
W: And the rest of it?
M: Hmm, the rest of it now, some 25, 30 years after Mr. Gruby&s initial efforts, there are more left-handed product actually on the market. Manufactures are now beginning to see that there is a market for left-handed products.
W: And what&s the range of your stock?
M: The range consists of a variety of scissors from children scissors to scissors for tailors, hairdressers etc. We also have a large range of kitchen ware.
W: What&s the competition like? Do you have quite a lot of competition?
M: There are other people in the business now in specialists, but only as mail-order outlets. But we have a shop here in central London plus a mail-order outlet. And we are without any doubt the largest supplier of the left-handed items.
Q19: What kind of business does the man engaged in?
Q20: What does the man say about his stock of products?
Q21: What does the man say about other people in his line of business?
Conversation Two
M: Can we make you an offer? We would like to run the campaign for four extra weeks.
W: well, can we summarize the problem from my point of view? First of all, the campaign was late. It missed two important trade affairs. The ads also did not appear into key magazines. As a result, the campaign failed. Do you accept that summary of what happened?
M: well, the delay wasn&t entirely our fault. You did in fact make late changes to the specifications of the advertisements.
W: Uh, actually, you were late with the initial proposals so you have very little time and in fact, we only asked for small changes.
M: Well whatever, can we repeat our offer to run the campaign for 4 extra weeks?
W: That&s not really the point. The campaign missed two key trade affairs. Because of this, we are asking you either to repeat the campaign next year for free, or we only pay 50% of the fee for this year.
M: Could we suggest a 20% reduction to the fee together with the four week sustention to the campaign.
W: We are not happy. We lost business.
M: I think we both made mistakes. The responsibility is on both sides.
W: Ok, let&s suggest a new solution. How about a 40% cut in fee, or a free repeat campaign?
M: Well, let&s take a break, we&re not getting very far. Perhaps we should think about this.
22: What do we learn about the man&s company?
23: Why was the campaign delayed according to the man?
24: What does the woman propose as a solution to the problem?
25: What does the man suggest they do at the end of the conversation?
Passage One
The University of Tennessee&s Walters Life Sciences building, is a model animal facility, spotlessly clean, careful in obtaining prior approval for experiments from an animal care committee. Of the 15,000 mice house there in a typical year, most give their lives for humanity. These are good mice and as such won the protection of the animal care committee. At any given time however some mice escape and run free. These mice are pests. They can disrupt experiments with the bacteria organisms they carry. They are bad mice and must be captured and destroyed. Usually, this is accomplished by means of sticky traps, a kind of fly paper on which they become increasingly stuck. But the real point of the cautionary tale, says animal behaviorist Herzau, is that the labels we put on things can affect our moral responses to them. Using stick traps or the more deadly snap traps would be deemed unacceptable for good mice. Yet the killing of bad mice requires no prior approval. Once the research animal hits the floor and becomes an escapee, says Herza, its moral standard is instantly diminished. In Herzau&s own home, there was more ironic example when his young son&s pet mouse Willy died recently, it was accorded a tearful ceremonial burial in garden. Yet even as they mourned Willy, says Herzau, he and his wife were setting snap traps to kill the pest mice in their kitchen with the bare change in labels from pet to pest, the kitchen mice obtained totally different moral standards
Questions:
26, What does the passage say about most of the mice used for experiments?
27, Why did the so-called bad mice have to be captured and destroyed?
28, When are mice killed without prior approval?
29, Why does the speaker say what the Herzau&s did at home is ironical?
Passage Two
There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born here, who takes the city for granted and accepts its size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter & the city that is swallowed up by locusts each day and spat out each night. Third, there is the New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these three trembling cities the greatest is the last, the city of final destination, the city that has a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York&#39;s high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give the city it natives give it sol but the settlers give it passion. And whether it is a farmer arriving from Italy to set up a small grocery store in a slum, or a young girl arriving from a small town in Mississippi to escape the indignity of being observed by her neighbors, or a boy arriving from the Corn Belt with a manuscript in his suitcase and a pain in his heart, it makes no difference: each embraces New York with the intense excitement of first love, each absorbs New York with the fresh eyes of an adventurer, each generates heat and light to dwarf the Consolidated Edison Company.

Passage Three
&If you asked me television is unhealthy&, I said to my roommate Walter, as I walked into the living room.&While you are sitting passively in front of the TV set, your muscles are turning to fat, your complexion is fading, and your eyesight is being ruined.&
&Shh~&Walter put his finger to his lips, &This is an intriguing murder mystery.&
&Really?& I replied.
&But you know, the brain is destroyed by TV viewing. Creativity is killed by that box. And people are kept from communicating with one another. From my point of view, TV is the cause of the declining interest in school and the failure of our entire educational system.&
&Ah ha, I can&t see your point.& Walter said softly. &But see? The woman on the witness stand in this story is being questioned about the murder that was committed one hundred years ago.&
Ignoring his enthusiastic description of the plot, I went on with my argument.
&As I see it,& I explained, &not only are most TV programs badly written and produced, but viewers are also manipulated by the mass media. As far as I am concerned, TV watchers are cut off from reality from nature, from the other people, from life itself! I was confident in my ability to persuade.
After a short silence, my roommate said, &Anyway, I&ve been planning to watch the football game. I am going to change the channel.&
&Don&t touch that dial!& I shouted, &I wanted to find out how the mystery turns out!&
I am not sure I got my point to cross.

Section C Compound Dictation
In the past, one of the biggest disadvantages of machines has been their inability to work on a micro scale. For example, doctors did not have devices allowing them to go inside the human body to detect health problems or to perform delicate surgery. Repair crews did not have a way of identifying broken pipes located deep within a high-rise apartment building. However, that&s about to change. Advances in computers and biophysics have started a micro miniature revolution that allows scientists to envision and in some cases actually build microscopic machines. These devices promise to dramatically change the way we live and work.
Micromachines already are making an impact. At Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, research scientists have designed a 4-inch silicon chip that holds 700 tiny primitive motors. At Lucas Nova Sensor in Fremont, California, scientists have perfected the world&s first microscopic blood-pressure sensor. Threaded through a person&s blood vessels, the sensor can provide blood pressure readings at the valve of the heart itself.
Although simple versions of miniature devices have had an impact, advanced versions are still several years away.
Auto manufacturers, for example, are trying to use tiny devices that can sense when to release an airbag and how to keep engines and breaks operating efficiently. Some futurists envision nanotechnology also being used to explore the deep sea in small submarine, or even to launch finger-sized rockets packed with micro miniature instruments.
&There is an explosion of new ideas and applications,& So, when scientists now think about future machines doing large and complex tasks, they&re thinking smaller than ever before.
