英語六級考試中國少年兒童出版社創智明輝

A. 英語四六級口語考試有指定教材嗎什麼名字和出版社要是沒有，用什麼書比較好呢

1.首先上課要認真聽講抄，尤其要做好筆記，下課再復習一遍，把他們都記在腦子里。然後再加入自己的理解。當然學英語的基礎是先掌握好單詞、短語。
2.如果你這方面不行的話，建議你多背背。然後要認真完成作業，如果說你上課有些東西還是不太理解，或許通過完成作業就可以掌握它的運用。
3.英語的難點在於碎的東西太多。要有很好的記憶力，和對語境的理解。建議你多下功夫。

C. 2020全國英語四六級考試時間是哪會

考試時間暫時還沒出來，由於疫情原因報名時間由原來的三月推遲了。具體時間還要留意官網。

英語四六級考試是教育部主管的一項全國性的英語考試，其目的是對大學生的實際英語能力進行客觀、准確的測量，為大學英語教學提供測評服務。大學英語考試是一項大規模標准化考試，是一個「標准關聯的常模參照測驗」。大學英語四、六級考試作為一項全國性的教學考試由「國家教育部高教司」主辦，分為四級考試(CET-4) 和六級考試(CET-6)，每年各舉行兩次，分別在同一天的上午和下午進行。

英語四六級開始最早是華東石油學院（現中國石油大學（華東））的校內廣泛流行的一種英語水平測試。1984年教育部在中國石油大學組織了一次英語教育研討會，當時校內正在舉行英語水平考試，吸引了與會者的注意力。此後，教育部開始在全國高校內推廣英語等級考試。

1986年第一次大學英語四級試驗舉行。

為適應我國高等教育新的發展形勢，深化教學改革，提高教學質量，滿足新時期國家對人才培養的需要，2004年初教育部高教司組織制定並在全國部分高校開始試點《大學英語課程教學要求（試行）》（以下簡稱《教學要求》）。

《教學要求》規定，大學英語課程的教學目標是：培養學生的英語綜合應用能力，特別是聽說能力，使他們在今後工作和社會交往中能用英語有效地進行口頭和書面的信息交流。自《教學要求》在全國部分院校開始試點以來，廣大教師積極參加和關心這次改革，在教學模式、教學手段和教材使用等各方面做了許多有益的嘗試。參加試點的學生也普遍反映新的教學理念和方法大大提高了他們學習英語的興趣，實現了個性化學習，提高了學習效率。

D. 美國人考不過中國的英語六級考試是真的嗎

美國人英文沒那麼差，我在澳洲，人家就生活在那樣的一個環境中不可能不好。如果中版國人口語權說的跟美國人一樣好，那不行，英文分聽說讀寫還有理解。如果讓一個正常的美國人來考你說的那些考試的話，三，四，六級就基本沒問題了，如果不及格就一定是練習的少，題型不熟悉，知識點絕對沒問題。八級就不行了，因為那是專業的。雅思考個6分，簡簡單單，6分以下那是白痴。托福不大了解，我覺得托福成績的中等邊上就是美國人的平局水平。GRE那是美國考研的，必然地難，GRE如果above average，啥也別說，直接上研。TAT，不知是啥玩意，但我知道SAT，俗稱美國高考，就像中國的高考，考得好就上清華北大，考不好就整個三流的。美國SAT，考得好就去常哈弗耶魯的，考不好就坐家裡吧。

E. 北京創智明輝文化有限公司怎麼樣待遇如何發展前景咋樣

是在木樨園的那個創智明輝嗎？如果是，我覺得還是不錯的，之前我做過他們內的兼職，還容是比較了解的。老總對待員工很不錯，平易近人的說。有一套對於想在此行業發展的員工的規劃和措施。待遇嘛，應該屬於中上吧，他們工資制度應該是多勞多得，你能幹你就拿得多咯。聽說最近在台灣又設立個出版社，發展前景我想應該是不錯的吧。總之~~~還是要看你的能力啦。能力強誰都喜歡的說！希望對你有用哈。

F. 中國的英語四六級考試什麼時候取消

等你發明了一種可以代替四、六級考試而又能更全面的檢測一個人英語水平方法來的時候，這種考試就可以取消了，你能行嗎？！

I. 急！！！！各位通過英語六級考試的，說一說經驗啊！

一定要認真做歷年的真題,至少10套以上,而且要認真做,把你常見的卻不會的,逐一記下來,背住了,一段時間後,你會發現自己有提高了,聽力的練習當然真題的幫助也是最大的,一定要經常聽,經常練,每年的考試其實都很有相關性的,奧秘就在於你的發掘了,認真做真題吧,相信你會成功的!

我認為聽力最好的就是真題,而且是實考聽力,因為無論從語速上還是發音上來說都是最標準的~很關鍵哦
提高聽力的方法就是不斷"磨"耳朵,聽音樂,看電影都是英文的,沒事就聽,主要練習集中注意力``
閱讀其實六級更注重的是技巧,六級在時間上比四級更緊,所以找閱讀的技巧很關鍵,我比較習慣迅速瀏覽文章用1分鍾左右,看問題,尤其是問題中的關鍵詞,然後到文章中找出那個詞再仔細閱讀它所在那段,選出答案,一般2個閱讀用時在15分鍾左右,准確率還可以,7個左右吧.你可以常做題,自己找出個適合你的.
要說真題哪個好,我基本上把所有出版社的模擬題都做了,(4,6級加起來),主要看講解吧,4級真題我記不清用的哪個了,6級的是王長喜的,還可以~閱讀那的生詞都有講解呢.但是好象沒配聽力原帶,一般學校的老師那有,你最好復制真題實考聽力來聽哦~
寫作方面呢,其實老師閱卷的速度是很快的,通常都是把卷子掃到電腦屏幕上來閱,所以練好你的字是一個關鍵.其實不需要你有華麗的詞語,用最簡單的話把你的觀點陳述出來你就成功一半了,再次,寫作里很多詞的,比較常用的那些轉折的,你可以看看範文,多背一些關鍵詞,老師看見也會加分的.
拿出時間來學,只要你想過,哪怕是1個月,我覺得也是很有希望的,加油吧!

Seven Ways to Save the World

Forget the old idea that conserving energy is a form of self-denial—riding bicycles, dimming the lights, and taking fewer showers. These days conservation is all about efficiency: getting the same—or better—results from just a fraction of the energy. When a slump in business travel forced Ulrich Ramer to cut costs at his family—owned hotel in Germany, he replaced hundreds of the hotel』s wasteful light bulbs, getting the same light for 80 percent less power. He bought a new water boiler with a digitally controlled pump, and wrapped insulation around the pipes. Spending about ￡100,000 on these and other improvements, he slashed his ￡90,000 fuel and power bill by ￡60,000. As a bonus, the hotel』s lower energy needs have reced its annual carbon emissions by more than 200 metric tons. 「For us, saving energy has been very, very profitable,」 he says. 「And most importantly, we』re not giving up a single comfort for our guests.」

Efficiency is also a great way to lower carbon emissions and help slow global warming. But the best argument for efficiency is its cost—or, more precisely, its profitability. That』s because quickly growing energy demand requires immense investment in new supply, not to mention the drain of rising energy prices.

No wonder efficiency has moved to the top of the political agenda. On Jan. 10, the European Union unveiled a plan to cut energy use across the continent by 20 percent by 2020. Last March, China imposed a 20 percent increase in energy efficiency by 2020. Even George W. Bush, the Texas oilman, is expected to talk about energy conservation in his State of the Union speech this week.

The good news is that the world is full of proven, cheap ways to save energy. Here are the seven that could have the biggest impact.

Insulate

Space heating and cooling eats up 36 percent of all the world』s energy. There』s virtually no limit to how much of that can be saved, as prototype 「zero-energy homes」 in Switzerland and Germany have shown. There』s been a surge in new ways of keeping heat in and cold out (or vice versa). The most advanced insulation follows the law of increasing returns: if you add enough you can scale down or even eliminate heating and air-conditioning equipment, lowering costs even before you start saving on utility bills. Studies have shown that green workplaces (ones that don』t constantly need to have the heat or air-conditioner running) have higher worker proctivity and lower sick rates.

Change Bulbs

Lighting eats up 20 percent of the world』s electricity, or the equivalent of roughly 600,000 tons of coal a day. Forty percent of that powers old-fashioned incandescent light bulbs—a 19th-century technology that wastes most of the power it consumes on unwanted heat.

Compact fluorescent lamps, or CFLS, not only use 75 to 80 percent less electricity than incandescent bulbs to generate the same amount of light, but they also last 10 times longer. Phasing old bulbs out by 2030 would save the output of 650 power plants and avoid the release of 700 million tons of carbon into the atmosphere each year.

Comfort Zone

Water boilers, space heaters and air conditioners have been notoriously inefficient. The heat pump has altered that equation. It removes heat from the air outside or the ground below and uses it to supply heat to a building or its water supply. In the summer, the system can be reversed to cool buildings as well.

Most new residential buildings in Sweden are already heated with ground-source heat pumps. Such systems consume almost no conventional fuel at all. Several countries have used subsidies to jump-start the market, including Japan, where almost I million heat pumps have been installed in the past two years to heat water for showers and hot tubs.

Remake Factories

From steel mills to paper factories, instry eats up about a third of the world』s energy. The opportunities to save are vast. In Ludwigshafen, German chemicals giant BASF runs an interconnected complex of more than 200 chemical factories, where heat proced by one chemical process is used to power the next. At the Ludwigshafen site site alone, such recycling of heat and energy saves the company ￡200 million a year and almost half its CO2 emissions. Now BASF is doing the same for new plants in China. 「Optimizing (優化) energy efficiency is a decisive competitive advantage,」 says BASF CEO Jurgen Hambrecht.

Green Driving

A quarter of the world』s energy---including two thirds of the annual proction of oil—is used for transportation. Some savings come free of charge: you can boost fuel efficiency by 6 percent simply by keeping your car』s tires properly inflated (充氣). Gasoline-electric hybrid(混合型的) models like the Toyota Prius improve mileage by a further 20 percent over conventional models.

A Better Fridge

More than half of all residential power goes into running household appliances, procing a fifth of the world』s carbon emissions. And that』s true even though manufacturers have already hiked the efficiency of refrigerators and other white goods by as much as 70 percent since the 1980s. According to an International Energy Agency study, if consumers chose those models that would save them the most money over the life of the appliance, they』d cut global residential power consumption (and their utility bills) by 43 percent.

Flexible Payment

Who says you have to pay for all your conservation investments? 「Energy service contractors」 will pay for retrofitting（翻新改造）in return for a share of the client』s annual utility-bill savings. In Beijing. Shenwu Thermal Energy Technology Co. specializes in retrofitting China』s steel furnaces. Shenwu puts up the initial investment to install a heat exchanger that preheats the air going into the furnace, slashing the client』s fuel costs. Shenwu pockets a cut of those savings, so both Shenwu and the client profit.

If saving energy is so easy and profitable, why isn』t everyone doing it? It has do with psychology and a lack of information. Most of us tend to look at today』s price tag more than tomorrow』s potential saving. That holds double for the landlord or developer, who won』t actually see a penny of the savings his investment in better insulation or a better heating system might generate. In many people』s minds, conservation is still associated with self-denial. Many environmentalists still push that view.

Smart governments can help push the market in the right direction. The EU』s 1994 law on labeling was such a success that it extended the same idea to entire buildings last year. To boost the market value of efficiency, all new buildings are required to have an 「energy pass」 detailing power and heating consumption. Countries like Japan and Germany have successively tightened building codes, requiring an increase in insulation levels but leaving it up to builders to decide how to meet them.

The most powerful incentives, of course, will come from the market itself. Over the past year, sky-high fuel prices have focused minds on efficiency like never before. Ever-increasing pressure to cut costs has finally forced more companies to do some math on their energy use.

Will it be enough? With global demand and emissions rising so fast, we may not have any choice but to try. Efficient technology is here now, proven and cheap. Compared with all other options, it』s the biggest, easiest and most profitable bang for the buck.
