Social Practice
Social practice is a bridge between their theory and reality. So， in recent years， more and more college students choose to take part-time jobs in or outside school.
In the social practice， students are sure to learn more than their textbooks. Their participation in social practice might strengthen their sense of social responsibility. Their close contact with the working people might help them to apply their knowledge to the solution to the practical problem. But many teachers complain that there are fewer and fewer students who pay attention to their study.
In my view， it's an undenied fact that students break the balance between their jobs and studies， especially when they fall into conflict. But I think students should spend their spare time taking part-time jobs. Timely participation in social practice will benefit them all through their life.

There are various ways in which individual economic units can interact with one another. Three basic ways may be described as the market system， the administered system， and the traditional system.
In a market system individual economic units are free to interact among each other in the marketplace. It is possible to buy commodities from other economic units or sell commodities to them. In a market， transactions may take place via barter or money exchange. In a barter economy， real goods such as automobiles， shoes， and pizzas are traded against each other. Obviously， finding somebody who wants to trade my old car in exchange for a sailboat may not always be an easy task. Hence， the introduction of money as a medium of exchange eases transactions considerably. In the modern market economy， goods and services are bought or sold for money.
An alternative to the market system is administrative control by some agency over all transactions. This agency will issue edicts or commands as to how much of each good and service should be produced， exchanged， and consumed by each economic unit. Central planning may be one way of administering such an economy. The central plan， drawn up by the government， shows the amounts of each commodity produced by the various firms and allocated to different households for consumption. This is an example of complete planning of production， consumption， and exchange for the whole economy.
In a traditional society， production and consumption patterns are governed by tradition； every person's place within the economic system is fixed by parentage， religion， and custom. Transactions take place on the basis of tradition， too. People belonging to a certain group or caste may have an obligation to care for other persons， provide them with food and shelter， care for their health， and provide for their education. Clearly， in a system where every decision is made on the basis of tradition alone， progress may be difficult to achieve. A stagnant society may result.

六级改错：
After months of speculation about what Amazon.com would
do with its mysterious search-engine company, A9, Web
surfers finally got their first taste on Apr. 14.
Yet despite of some intriguing new features not yet found 1.
on leading sites such as Google and Yahoo! , the site
still in test mode -- rises as many questions 2.
as it answers.
The biggest question remains is whether Amazon, 3.
through A9, would clash into Google more directly. 4.
Google itself is testing a search engine for products
called Froogle that's starting to appeal Web shoppers. 5.
At the same time, Amazon clearly isn't looking to limit A9's horizons.
How directly A9 eventually goes up against the reigned 6.
search champion, it faced lots of challenges. For one, 7.
it may run into some of the same privacy issues that
recently have plagued Google. A9's privacy policy points
out that information provided through entering search term 8.
or by signing into one's Amazon account could supply the company
with information that could personally identify the searcher.
Those may be somewhat less intrusive(打扰的，冒犯的) than 9.
Google's upcoming Gmail free e-mail offering, which could search
the contents of messages to pitch personalized ads. But comments
posted on some sites already indicate some people are
uncomfortable with Google's potential threats to privacy. 10.
答案：
1.of去掉，despite sth；
2. rises 改raise (提出，引起问题) ；
3. question后加that；
4. into 改with , clash with 与…冲突；
5. appeal 后面加to, appeal to 吸引；
6. reigned 改reigning；此处是指占搜索引擎统治地位的Google, 不能用被动；
7. faced 改 faces；
8. term 改 terms 条款；
9. Those 改That , 这里that指上句话的意思，不用复数指代；
10. Google改为A9, 逻辑上的错误
六级翻译：
1. We had better _________________（天天锻炼身体）.
2. _______________（为了不影响他们），we left quietly.
3. _____________（我答复她）that I would accept her invitation.
4. According to the newly-announced policy，we should ________________（努力搞活国有大中型企业）.
5. It has become an utmost urgency that ________________（必须清除政府中的贪污腐化现象）.
参考答案及解析:
1. take exercise everyday
解析：考生如果按照字面将此句翻译成train our body everyday，那么就完全不符合英文表达习惯。虽然train有锻炼、训练、培养之意，但一般用于train horses，train the football team，train athletes等，不能说train one's body，"锻炼身体"的习惯译法是：do/take exercise。
2. Not to disturb them
解析：本题主要从两个方面考察同学们对基础知识的掌握。一是"影响"的正确选词；二是不定式作目的状语的否定用法。"影响"在这里不能选用influence，因为influence表示一种影响人和事或导致事件发生的力量，具有感化力。而本句从意思来看应该是为了不打扰别人，所以应该选用disturb。虽然汉语表述上都是"影响"，但译成英文时要联系上下语境来分析。不定式作目的状语时，否定用法只需要在不定式前加否定词not即可。
3. I replied to her
解析：本题主要考查词义辨析。"答复"在英文里可以选用reply和respond，reply是比较正式的书面用于，有时也可以用于口头或行动上的应答，表示正式而且经过考虑过后的回答，指答复对方论点或问题等，侧重于答复的内容。Respond是比较正式的用语，往往对表示号召、职责、请求等作出相应的答复或反映。如：他没有对我的问题作出任何反应。（He didn't respond to my question.）
4. invigorate the large and medium-sized stated-owned enterprises
解析：很多考生会把"努力搞活"翻译成endeavor to invigorate，try our best to invigorate。其实，"搞活"企业就必须付出"努力"，"努力"和"搞活"之间存在意义重叠。Invigorate已经包括"努力使活跃"的含义，因此没必要将两个中文单词都翻译出来。另外，大家要记住"国有企业"，"外资企业"（overseas-funded enterprises），"合资企业"（joint venture）的英文译文。
5. the administration must be cleaned of graft and corruption
解析：本题既考查了无主句的转换，又考查了抽象词的省译，还考查了固定短语搭配。句子需填入部分没有给出主语，"贪污腐化现象"不可能自己清除自己，因此最佳方案是译成被动句式；"贪污腐化"本身就是一种现象，英文不能重复译成the phenomena of graft and corruption；"清除"的常用搭配有：be eliminated from，be cleared away from，be cleaned of，be cleaned out，be weeded out。
