2023 年年 6 月大学英语六级真题试卷及答案月大学英语六级真题试卷及答案（一）（一）Part I Writing (30 minutes)(请于正式开考后半小时内完毕该部分，之后将进行听力考试)Directions:Suppose you are asked to give advice on whether to attend a vocational college or a university,write an essay to state your opinion.You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.【参照范文】Whether to Attend a Vocational College or a University?Its an undisputable truth that virtually all high school graduates will encounter the choices between a vocational college and a university.And when it comes to this question,students ideas are not cut from the same cloth.In point of which to choose and what to be taken into consideration,my advices are as follow.In the first place,we should be conscious of the fact that both of the two choices have its own superiorities.For instance,a vocational college specializes in cultivating human resources with practical capabilities;while a university serves as the cradle of academic researchers in different fields.Then it does follow that high school graduates should have a clear picture of themselves.That is to say,they should know their merits and demerits and their choices must give play to their strengths whilst circumvent weaknesses.In addition,interest is the best teacher and its also the premise of learning on ones own initiative.Thus interest must be taken into account because it can not only decide how far one can reach academically and professionally but also how happy and fulfilled one will be.In brief,all above just goes to show that there really is no one-size-fits-all answer for the question.The key lies in a clear cognition,accurate self-positioning and the interest of oneself.Only then can every one find a right path that works best for us.Part II Listening Comprehension
