Features: results prove: To score high, you must practice with real tests! This book is based on extensive feedback from candidates in CET-6 intensive courses at multiple universities and our personal teaching experience in these courses. Currently, there are numerous CET-6 test collections in the market, many of which suffer from flaws such as incorrect answers, overly brief or verbose explanations (e.g., repetitive phrases like "The translation of this sentence is" or "The answer to this question is" wasting excessive space). Encountering difficult problems often requires consulting dictionaries or asking teachers, which not only consumes a lot of time and effort but also makes it hard to grasp the exam patterns. This book addresses these shortcomings by incorporating a uniquely designed explanatory section.
1. Questions: Includes actual test questions from June 1999 to January 2005 (an additional appendix provides the 2003 September CET-6 test with answers). Organized into 12 Tests in the format of the actual CET-6 exam. Each Test should be completed within 120 minutes for self-assessment.
2. Explanatory Section: This is the most distinctive feature of the book.
I. Listening: Provides written materials for listening, with answers highlighted in bold.
