一、考试流程
请见：http://www.cet6.net/post/102/
二、考试的注意事项
1、注意考试时间，提前15分钟一定要到达考场，等候考试。
2、备齐文具，特别是2B铅笔，以及黑色水笔，因为作文是先扫描然后网上阅卷，因此笔迹一定要清晰。
3、收音机的问题。(事先了解好自己所在学校是收音机放音还是公共广播)
4. 时间分配：在做完听力后，剩下的仔细阅读部分、综合部分(可能考改错，也可能是完形)以及翻译部分的时间分配由自己决定。建议，首先做5道题目的翻译，这个比较简单，容易拿分，一般建议4---5分钟搞定。然后一定集中精力做仔细阅读部分，然后是综合部分。仔细阅读部分，尤其是2篇传统阅读题型这是重中之重，考试建议的时间是20分钟左右，但是我想大家尽量的多花一点时间，一定保证正确率。

Look at the keyboard of any standard typewriter or computer. "Q," "W," "E," "R," "T" and "Y" are the first six letters. Who decided on this arrangement of the letters? And why?
People tried for centuries to invent the typewriter. In 1714 in England, Henry Mill filed a patent for a machine called An Artificial Machine or Method for the Impressing or Transcribing of Letters, Singly or Progressively one after another, as in Writing, whereby all Writing whatsoever may be Engrossed in Paper or Parchment so Neat and Exact as not to be distinguished from Print. That machine probably didn’ t sell because no one could remember its name!
The first practical typewriter was patented in the United States in 1868 by Christopher Latham Sholes. His machine was known as the type-writer. It had a movable carriage, a lever for turning paper from line to line, and a keyboard on which the letters were arranged in alphabetical order.
But Sholes had a problem. On his first model, his "ABC" key arrangement caused the keys to jam when the typist worked quickly. Sholes didn’ t know how to keep the keys from sticking, so his solution was to keep the typist from typing too fast.Sholes asked his brother-in-law to rearrange the keyboard so that the commonest letters were not so close together and the type bars would come from opposite directions. Thus they would not clash together and jam the machine.The new arrangement was the QWERTY arrangement typists use today. Of course, Sholes claimed that the new arrangement was scientific and would add speed and efficiency. The only efficiency it added was to slow the typist down, since almost any word in the English language required the typist’ s fingers to cover more distance on the keyboard.
The advantages of the typewriter outweighed the disadvantages of the keyboard. Typists memorized the crazy letter arrangement, and the typewriter became a huge success. By the time typists had memorized the new arrangement of letters and built their speed, typewriter technology had improved, and the keys didn’ t stick as badly as they had at first.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the passage above.

Reading Baby's Mind
The helpless, seemingly awkward infant staring up at you from his little bed, has a lot more going on inside his head than you ever imagined. A wealth of new research is leading child psychologists to rethink their long-held beliefs about the emotional and intellectual abilities of even very young babies. Science is now giving us a much different picture of what goes on inside their hearts and heads. Long before they form their first words or attempt the feat of sitting up, they are already mastering complex emotions-jealousy, empathy (移情), frustration-that were once thought to be learned much later.
