Directions:Suppose your school is organizing an orientation program to help the freshmen to adapt to the new environment and academic studies. You are now to write a proposal, which may include its aim, duration, participants,activities. You will have 30 minutes to write the proposal. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

这道大学英语四级作文题目假设学校为了帮助新生适应新的环境和学习，正在组织一次迎接新生的活动，要求考生为这次迎新活动写一份计划书，包括迎新活动的目的、时间、参加者和活动等。

这份计划书本质上是一篇说明文。我们写这份计划不能眉毛胡子一把抓，要突出重点，而各项迎新活动就是本文的重点内容。本文可以写三个段落。第一段先介绍写作背景——学校为了帮助新生适应新的环境和大学阶段的学习，正在组织一次迎接新生的活动。第二段首先指出这次迎新活动将持续三天，然后依次介绍每天的活动内容。第一天：在导游的带领下游览校园，以帮助学生更好地了解学校的设施；为了让新生在新环境里感到舒适自在，晚上安排一场晚会。第二天：参观校史馆。回顾学校的历史可以帮助学生深刻理解学校的核心价值观。第三天：学校的各个社团开展一系列的讲座。这些讲座为新生探索兴趣爱好提供所需的信息。第三段先总结全文，指出成功的迎新活动能够帮助新生快速地适应新环境。然后预测自己的这个迎新计划将会是活跃气氛的好时机，并能帮助新生更好地适应大学生活。下面请看参考范文：

Our school is organizing an orientation program to help the freshmen to adapt to the new environment and academic studies. Here is my proposal for welcoming the new students of the coming fall semester.

The orientation program will last from September 1 to 3. Day 1: A guided tour of the campus. This is to help the new students know more about our school’s amenities. A party is arranged in the evening to make the freshmen feel at home in the new environment. Day 2: A visit to the University History Museum. A review of the school’s history helps foster a clear understanding of our school’s core values. Day 3: A series of lectures given by the clubs and associations of our school. This will provide the freshmen with the information and resources they need to fully explore their interests.

A good orientation program helps the freshmen to adjust quickly to the new environment. I’m sure my scheme will be a useful ice-breaker and get the newcomers well prepared for their university life.(173 words)

语言亮点借鉴：

1. A party is arranged in the evening to make the freshmen feel at home in the new environment. 晚上安排一场晚会，以便让新生在新环境里感到舒适自在。feel at home 感觉舒适自在。

2. A review of the school’s history helps foster a clear understanding of our school’s core values.回顾校史有助于充分理解我们学校的核心价值观。values 价值观。

3. I’m sure my scheme will be a useful ice-breaker and get the newcomers well prepared for their university life. 我相信我的计划将会有效地活跃气氛，并让新生为他们的大学生活做好充分的准备。ice-breaker 活跃气氛的活动。

Directions:Comment on the phenomenon and suggest measures to address the issue. Young people spend a lot of time on the Internet. However they are sometimes unable to recognize false information on the internet, judge the reliability of online information sources, or tell real news stories from fake ones.

这道大学英语六级作文试题属于分析现象型，其特点是提供一个社会现象，请考生分析这一现象并提出解决措施。我们一般沿着提出问题、分析问题、解决问题的思路把作文写成三个段落。

第一段先指出现象，如今的年轻人不能区分网上信息的真假，为了言之有据，接着引用一项研究或调查的统计数据作为支撑。第二段分析这个社会现象。分析一个社会现象有两个最常见的思路：一是分析原因，即分析为什么年轻人不能区分网上信息的真假？二是分析影响，即分析年轻人不能区分网上信息的真假会造成怎样的后果？我们一般选择最容易下笔的思路来展开分析。就本文而言，我们不妨从分析原因的角度展开。为了使分析充分详实，我们要善于从不同的方面或层面论述。比如，本文可以从以下两个方面分析年轻人不能区分网上信息真假的原因：第一，年轻人缺乏批判思维；第二，网上的信息量巨大。这两个方面都要略作展开。我们在分析原因时不能泛泛而论，而要紧紧扣住年轻人这个主体，否则就是扣题不紧。这道作文试题要求考生分析现象并提出解决措施，但这两个方面并非同等重要。我们一般把分析现象作为写作重点，把提出措施作为次要内容。这是因为，只有在充分地分析了原因的基础上提出的措施才具有针对性和可行性。

本文宜用措施法结尾，即结尾段指出如何解决这个问题。我们可以先指出，尽管有人担忧，但因特网仍然是年轻人获得信息的最重要的来源，然后提出学校和大学要投入更多的精力培养学生的批判思维能力，从而提升他们的信息素养。下面请看参考范文：

Currently there is a growing concern over young people’s inability to recognize false information on the Internet. In a recent survey, as many as 41%of teens polled said they cannot tell the difference between fake news stories and real ones.

Lacking critical thinking is the main culprit. Young people today get little if any training in thinking critically at school. As a result, most of them have difficulty judging the credibility of the information they see online. A Johns Hopkins University study finds that 41.2 percent of American college students admitted to having taken the news they saw on the Net at face value. Also contributing to this problem is the huge amount of information on the Web, which renders it virtually impossible to assess its trustworthiness. Not surprisingly,young people swallow what they read online hook, line and sinker.

Despite the concern, the Internet remains the most important source of information for young users. It is urgent that schools and colleges devote more efforts to developing critical thinking in students so as to improve their information literacy.(179 words)

语言亮点借鉴：

1. Currently there is a growing concern over young people’s inability to recognize false information on the Internet.现在人们越来越担心年轻人不能辨别网上的虚假信息。

2. Lacking critical thinking is the main culprit. 缺乏批判思维是主要原因。the main culprit 罪魁祸首。

3. Young people today get little if any training in thinking critically at school. 如今的年轻人在学校里几乎没有受过批判思维的训练。little if any 就算有也很少。

4. A Johns Hopkins University study finds that 41.2 percent of American college students admitted to having taken the news they saw on the Net at face value.约翰斯·霍普金斯大学的一项研究发现，41.2%的美国大学生承认自己轻信网络新闻。take sth at face value 仅凭表象对……信以为真。

5. Not surprisingly, young people swallow what they read online hook, line and sinker.毫不奇怪，年轻人完全相信他们在网上读到的东西。swallow sth hook, line and sinker 完全被某件事所欺骗。
