From the cartoon given above, we can observe that there is a recruiter talking with an interviewee. When looking at the resume submitted by the candidate, the interviewer says,“Sorry, kid… Your resume looks good, but you only have a Master’s degree…All the other applicants are Ph.D. ! ” Having heard these words, the applicant seems to be quite helpless and embarrassed.
The cartoon reveals that the society has been placing a higher value on educational degree. What factors might contribute to this phenomenon? Answers to this question may involve many aspects, and here are a few guesses: for one thing, from the subjective aspect, quite a few employers hold that the higher educational degree people have, the more competent they will be. For another, from the objective aspect, with the professions in modern society becoming increasingly segmented, employees are required to acquire higher degree to fulfill their tasks efficiently.
Definitely, higher degrees enjoy obvious advantages. However, it is not advisable that employers judge a person only by his/ her educational backgrounds. Let alone “Degree Discrimination”. As for ourselves, we should not only attach a great importance to educational degree, but also spare no efforts to enhance our comprehensive abilities.
【名師簡評】
2014年12月20日六級真題,寫作部分打破了2014年6月14日六級寫作的出題風(fēng)格,具有以下四大大特點(diǎn):
1. 反押題:此次作文,不再考察2011年12月、2012年12月、2013年6、13月和2014年6月共5次“全英文引語、名言警句”作文的慣例,繼2012年6月之后,第二次考察漫畫作文;
2. 易審題:依舊沒有考察考生“審題能力”以及“跑題偏題”的可能性,作文的主題非常開放而明顯,所有考生都有話好說;相對2014年12月上午四級作文而言,六級的作文相對“不夠接地氣,不夠生活會化”,而是與“網(wǎng)絡(luò)、文化、心態(tài)”等這樣傳統(tǒng)話題有關(guān),看似題目很大,其實(shí)難度較小;
3. 重語言:主題明確,不會跑題,考生比拼的就是“語言質(zhì)量”本身了。
4. 技巧和能力并重:北京新東方四六級課堂所倡導(dǎo)的“寫作技巧與范文背誦”作文備考思路依舊得到體現(xiàn)和應(yīng)用??忌纫?guī)律性總結(jié)歷年真題出題的特點(diǎn),又要勤加背誦和練習(xí)考前的范文。宗旨,多背,多寫,背好,寫好,總能夠在考場上有話好說,有分可拿!
