Part I Writing (30 minutes) 注意：此部分试题在答题卡1上。
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Due Attention Should
Be Given to the Study of Chinese. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below:
1.近年来在学生中出现了忽视中文学习现象；
2.出现这种现象原因和后果；
3.我认为…
Due Attention Should Be Given to the Study of Chinese
Almost no one in China can have failed to notice the fact that a number of students pay little attention to the
study of Cheese nowadays. Taking a look around, one can find examples too many to list: some refuse to go to
Chinese classes, some read few Chinese classics and some rarely write in Chinese。
A number of factors can account for such phenomenon, but the following might be the critical ones. For one
thing, the craze for learning English affect, to some degree, students’ passion for the study of their native language.
For another, the increasing emphasis on some so-called “practical subjects” closely related to the pursuit for jobs also
cut into students’ time and energy spent on the study of Chinese。
The problem mentioned above is bound to generate severe consequences if we keep turning a blind eye to it.
First ,students’ weakness in Chinese would lead to their ignorance of Chinese culture . Secondly, their problems with
Chinese would also hinder the study of other subjects。
In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken before things get worse. In the first
place, it is essential that the school attach more importance to the teaching of Chinese. In the second place, students
should enhance their awareness of the importance of mastering their mother tongue. Only with these measures
taken can we expect the all-sided development of students。

Obama's success isn't all good news for black Americans
As Erin White watched the election results head towards victory for Barack Obama, she felt a burden lifting

White's experience is what many psychologists had expected - that Obama would prove to be a powerful role
model for African Americans. Some hoped his rise to prominence would have a big impact on white Americans, too,
challenging those who still harbour racist sentiments.

Sting in the tail
Ashby Plant is one of a number of psychologists who seized on Obama's candidacy to test hypotheses about the
power of role models. Their work is already starting to reveal how the
behaviour. Perhaps surprisingly, it is not all good news: there is a sting in the tail of the Obama effect.
But first the good news. Barack Obama really is a positive role model for African Americans, and he was
making an impact even before he got to the White House. Indeed, the Obama effect can be surprisingly immediate
and powerful, as Ray Friedman of Vanderbilt University and his colleagues discovered.
They tested four separate groups at four key stages of Obama's presidential campaign. Each group consisted of
around 120 adults of similar age and education, and the test assessed their language skills. At two of these stages,
when Obama's success was less than certain, the tests showed a clear difference between the scores of the white and
black participants—an average of 12.1 out of 20, compared to 8.8, for example. When the Obama fever was at its
height, however, the black participants performed much better. Those who had watched Obama's acceptance speech
as the Democrats' presidential candidate performed just as well, on average, as the white his election
victory, this was true of all the black participants.
Dramatic shift
What can explain this dramatic shift? At the start of the test, the participants had to declare their race and were
told their results would be used to assess their strengths and weaknesses. This should have primed the subjects with
– an anxiety that their results will confirm negative stereotypes, which has been shown to damage
the performance of African Americans.
Obama's successes seemed to act as a shield against this.

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
If the Obama effect is positive for African Americans, how is it affecting their white compatriots (同胞)? Is the
experience of having a charismatic (有魅力的) black president modifying lingering racist attitudes? There is no easy
way to measure racism directly; instead psychologists assess what is known as biasusing a
computer-based test that measures how quickly people associate positive and negative words—such as or
—with photos of black or white faces. A similar test can also measure how quickly subjects associate
stereotypical traits—such as athletic skills or mental ability—with a particular group.
In a study that will appear in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, Plant's team tested 229 students
during the height of the Obama fever. They found that implicit bias has fallen by as much as 90% compared with the
level found in a similar study in 2006.
While the team can't be sure their results are due solely to Obama, they also showed that those with the lowest
bias were likely to subconsciously associate black skin colour with political words such as or

Drop in bias
Brian Nosek of the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, who runs a website that measures implicit bias
using similar test, has also observed a small drop in bias in the 700,000 visitors to the site since January 2007, which
might be explained by Obama's rise to popularity. However, his preliminary results suggest that change will be much
slower coming than Plant's results suggest.

their feelings regarding race issues, which may not be such a bad thing.
Another part of the study suggests far more is at stake than the mere expression of views. The Obama effect may
have a negative side. Just one week after Obama was elected president, participants were less ready to support
policies designed to address racial inequality than they had been two weeks before the election.
Huge obstacles
It could, of course, also be that Obama's success helps people to forget that a disproportionate number of black
Americans still live in poverty and face huge obstacles when trying to overcome these circumstances.
Obama's family is such a salient (出色的) image, we generalise it and fail to see the larger picture—that there's

Though Plant's findings were more positive, she too warns against thinking that racism and racial inequalities

Part IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)
Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage
carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your
answers on Answer Sheet 2.
Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
Question: My ninth-grade art teacher doesn't give any grade above 94% because, she says,
for improvement.
work that I put into this course. Because of her theory, I got a lower grade than I deserve. Is her
grading philosophy ethical (符合职业道德规范的)?
Answer: Your teacher's grading system may be unwise, but it is not unethical. A teacher deserves wide latitude in
selecting the method of grading that best promotes learning in her classroom; that is, after all, the prime function of
grades. It is she who has the training and experience to make this decision. Assuming that your teacher is neither
biased nor corrupt and that her system conforms to school rules, you can't fault her ethics.
You can criticize her methodology. A 100 need not imply that there is no possibility of improvement, only that a
student successfully completed the course work. A ninth grader could get a well- earned 100 in English class but still
have a way to go before she writes as well as Jane Austen. What's more, grades are not only an educational device but
are also part of a screening system to help assign kids to their next class or program. By capping her grades at 94
while most other teachers grade on a scale that tops out at 100, your teacher could jeopardize a student's chance of
getting a scholarship or getting into a top college.
What it is wrong to condemn her for is overlooking your hard work. You diligence is worthy of encouragement,
but effort does not equal accomplishment. If scholars suddenly discovered that Rembrandt had dashed off

I could spend months sweating over my own
in your living room. Or your garage.

Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished
statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice
and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Questions 51 to 56 are based on the following passage.
Only two countries in the advanced world provide no guarantee for paid leave from work to care for a newborn
child. Last spring one of the two, Australia, gave up the dubious distinction by establishing paid family leave starting
in 2011. I wasn't surprised when this didn't make the news here in the United States—we're now the only wealthy
country without such a policy.
The United States does have one explicit family policy, the Family and Medical Leave Act, passed in 1993. It
entitles workers to as much as 12 weeks' unpaid leave for care of a newborn or dealing with a family medical
problem. Despite the modesty of the benefit, the Chamber of Commerce and other business groups fought it bitterly,
describing it as
as (usually) Democratic leaders have tried to introduce work- family balance measures into the law, business groups
have been strongly opposed.
As Yale law professor Anne Alstott argues, justifying parental support depends on defining the family as a social
good that, in some sense, society must pay for. In her book No Exit: What Parents Owe Their Children and What
Society Owes Parents, she argues that parents are burdened in many ways in their lives: there is
comes to children. —and needs—parents to provide their children with continuity of care, meaning
the intensive, intimate care that human beings need to develop their intellectual, emotional and moral capabilities.
And society expects—and needs—parents to persist in their roles for 18 years, or longer if needed.
While most parents do this out of love, there are public penalties for not providing care. What parents do, in
other words, is of deep concern to the state, for the obvious reason that caring for children is not only morally urgent
10

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
but essential for the future of society. The state recognizes this in the large body of family laws that govern children'
welfare, yet parents receive little help in meeting the life-changing obligations society imposes. To classify parenting
as a personal choice for which there is no collective responsibility is not merely to ignore the social benefits of good
parenting; really, it is to steal those benefits because they accrue (不断积累) to the whole of society as today's
children become tomorrow's productive citizenry (公民). In fact, by some estimates, the value of parental investments
in children, investments of time and money (including lost wages), is equal to 20-30% of gross domestic product. If
these investments generate huge social benefits—as they clearly do—the benefits of providing more social support
for the family should be that much clearer.

B) It has now become a hot topic in the United States.

A) They fail to ensure children's healthy growth
B) The fail to provide enough support for parents
C) They emphasize parents' legal responsibilities.
D) They impose the care of children on parents.

Passage Two
Questions 57 to 62 are based on the following passage.
A new study from the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) at
Tufts University shows that today's youth vote in larger numbers than previous generations, and a 2008 study from
the Center for American Progress adds that increasing numbers of young voters and activists support traditionally
liberal causes. But there's no easy way to see what those figures mean in real life. During the presidential campaign,
Barack Obama assembled a racially and ideologically diverse coalition with his message of hope and change; as the
reality of life under a new administration settles in, some of those supporters might become disillusioned. As the
nation moves further into the Obama presidency, will politically engaged young people continue to support the
president and his agenda, or will they gradually drift away?
The writers of Generation O (short for Obama), a new Newsweek blog that seeks to chronicle the lives of a
group of young Obama supporters, want to answer that question. For the next three months, Michelle Kremer and 11
other Obama supporters, ages 19 to 34, will blog about life across mainstream America, with one twist: by tying all of
their ideas and experiences to the new president and his administration, the bloggers will try to start a conversation
about what it means to be young and politically active in America today. Malena Amusa, a 24-year-old writer and
dancer from St. Louis sees the project as a way to preserve history as it happens. Amusa, who is traveling to India this
spring to finish a book, then to Senegal to teach English, has ongoing conversations with her friends about how the
Obama presidency has changed their daily lives and hopes to put some of those ideas, along with her global
perspective, into her posts. She's excited because, as she puts it, now

听力原文：
Section A
Short Conversation
11. M: Oh, I’m so sorry I forgot to bring along the book you borrowed from the library.
W: What a terrible memory you have! Anyway, I won’t need it until Friday night. As long as I can get it by then, OK?
Q: What do we learn from this conversation?
12. W: Doctor, I haven’t been able to get enough sleep lately, and I’m too tired to concentrate in class.
M: Well, you know, spending too much time indoors with all that artificial lighting can do that to you. Your body
loses track of whether it’s day or night.
Q: What does the man imply?
13. M: I think I’ll get one of those new T-shirts, you know, with the school’s logo on both the front and back.
W: You’ll regret it. They are expensive, and I’ve heard the printing fades easily when you wash them.
Q: What does the woman mean?
14. W: I think your article in the school newspaper is right on target, and your viewpoints have certainly convinced
me.
M: Thanks, but in view of the general responses, you and I are definitely in the minority.
Q: What does the man mean?
15. M: Daisy was furious yesterday because I lost her notebook. Should I go see her and apologize to again?
W: Well, if I were you, I’d let her cool off a few days before I approach her.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
16. M: Would you please tell me where I can get batteries for this brand of camera?
W: Let me have a look. Oh, yes, go down this aisle, pass the garden tools, you’ll find them on the shelf next to the
light bulbs.
Q: What is the man looking for?
17. M: Our basketball team is playing in the finals but I don’t have a ticket. I guess I’ll just watch it on TV. Do you
want to come over?
W: Actually I have a ticket. But I’m not feeling well. You can have it for what it cost me.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
18. M: Honey, I’ll be going straight to the theatre from work this evening. Could you bring my suit and tie along?
W: Sure, it’s the first performance of the State Symphony Orchestra in our city, so suit and tie is a must.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
16

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
Long Conversations
Conversation 1
M: I got two letters this morning with job offers, one from the Polytechnic, and the other from the Language School
in Pistoia, Italy.
W: So you are not sure which to go for?
M: That’s it. Of course, the conditions of work are very different: The Polytechnic is offering two-year contract which
could be renewed, but the language school is only offering a year’s contract, and that’s a different minus. It could be
renewed, but you never know.
W: I see. So it’s much less secure. But you don’t need to think too much about steady jobs when you are only 23.
M: That’s true.
W: What about the salaries?
M: Well, the Pistoia job pays much better in the short term. I’ll be getting the equivalent of about ￡22,000 a year
there, but only ￡20,000 at the Polytechnic. But then the hours are different. At the Polytechnic I’d have to do 35
hours a week, 20 teaching and 15 administration, whereas the Pistoia school is only asking for 30 hours teaching.
W: Mmm…
M: Then the type of teaching is so different. The Polytechnic is all adults and mostly preparation for exams like the
Cambridge certificates. The Language School wants me to do a bit of exam preparation, but also quite a lot of work
in companies and factories, and a couple of children’s classes. Oh, and a bit of literature teaching.
W: Well, that sounds much more varied and interesting. And I’d imagine you would be doing quire a lot of teaching
outside the school, and moving around quite a bit.
M: Yes, whereas with the Polytechnic position, I’d be stuck in the school all day.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard:
Q19. What do we learn about the man from the conversation?
Q20. What do we learn about the students at the Polytechnic?
Q21. What does the woman think of the job at the Language school?
Conversation 2
Good evening and welcome to tonight's edition of Legendary Lives. Our subject this evening is James Dean, actor
and hero for the young people of his time. Edward Murray is the author of a new biography of Dean.
W: Good evening, Edward.
M: Hello Tina.
W: Edward, tell us what you know about Dean's early life.
17

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
M: He was born in Indiana in 1931, but his parents moved to California when he was five. He wasn't there long
though because his mother passed away just four years later. Jimmy's father sent him back to Indiana after that to live
with his aunt.
W: So how did he get into acting?
M: Well, first he acted in plays at high school, then he went to college in California where he got seriously into acting.
In 1951 he moved to New York to do more stage acting.
W: Then when did his movie career really start?
M: 1955. His first starring role was in East of Eden. It was fabulous. Dean became a huge success. But the movie that
really made him famous was his second one, Rebel Without a Cause, that was about teenagers who felt like they
didn't fit into society.
W: So how many more movies did he make?
M: Just one more, then he died in that car crash in California in 1955.
W: What a tragedy! He only made three movies! So what made him the legend he still is today?
M: Well I guess his looks, his acting ability, his short life, and maybe the type of character he played in his movies.
Many young people saw him as a symbol of American youths.
Q22 What is the woman doing?
Q23 Why did James Dean move back to Indiana when he was young?
Q24 What does the man say James Dean did at college in California?
Q25 What do we know about James Dean from the conversation?
Section B
Passage 1

Passage 2
Juan Louis, a junior geology major, decided to give an informative speech about how earthquakes occur. From his
audience and analysis he learned that only 2 or 3 of his classmates knew much of anything about geology. Juan
realized then that he must present his speech at an elementary level and with a minimum of scientific language. As he
prepared the speech, Juan kept asking himself, “How can I make this clear and meaningful to someone who knows
nothing about earthquakes or geological principles?” Since he was speaking in the Midwest, he decided to begin by
noting that the most severe earthquake in American history took place not in California or Alaska but at New Madrid,
Missouri in 1811. If such an earthquake happened today, it would be felt from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic
Ocean and would flatten most of the cities in the Mississippi valley. That, he figured, should get his classmates’
attention. Throughout the body of the speech, Juan dealt only with the basic mechanics of the earthquakes, carefully
avoid technical terms. He also prepared visual aids, diagramming photo line, so his classmates wouldn’t get confused.
To be absolutely safe, Juan asked his roommate, who was not a geology major, to listen to the speech. “Stop me,” he
said, “any time I say something you don’t understand.” Juan’s roommate stopped him four times. And at each spot,
Juan worked out a way to make his point more clearly. Finally, he had a speech that was interesting and perfectly
understandable to his audience.
Questions 30 – 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Q30 What did Juan Louis learn from the analysis of his audience?
Q31 How did Juan Louis start his speech?
Q32 What did Juan ask his roommate to do when he was making his trial speech?
Passage 3
Esperanto is an artificial language, designed to serve internationally as an auxiliary means of communication among
19

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
speakers of different languages. It was created by Ludwig Lazar Zamenhof, a polish Jewish doctor specialized in eye
diseases. Esperanto was first presented in 1887. An international movement was launched to promote its use. Despite
arguments and disagreements, the movement has continued to flourish and has members in more than 80 countries.
Esperanto is used internationally across language boundaries by at least 1 million people, particularly in specialized
fields. It is used in personal contexts, on radio broadcasts and in a number of Its popularity has spread form Europe,
both east and west, to such countries as Brazil and Japan. It is, however, in China that Esperanto has had its greatest
impact. It is taught in universities and used in many translations, often in scientific or technological works. EL
POPOLA CHINIO, which means from people’s China, it’s a monthly magazine in Esperanto and it’s read worldwide.
Radio Beijing’s Esperanto program is the most popular program in Esperanto in the world. Esperanto vocabulary is
drawn primarily from Latin, the Roman’s languages, English and German. Spelling is completely regular. A simple
and consistent set of endings indicates grammatical functions of words. Thus for example, every noun ends in “o”,
every adjective in “a”, and basic form of every verb in “i”. Esperanto also has a highly productive system of
constructing new words from old ones.
Questions 33 – 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
Q33 What does the speaker tell us about Esperanto?
Q34 What is said about the international movement to promote the use of Esperanto?
Q35 What does the speaker say about Esperanto in China?
Section C
George Herbert Mead said that humans are
communicate with others. In the earliest years of our lives, our parents tell us who we are:
so strong.
We first see ourselves through the eyes of others. So their messages form important foundations of our self- concepts.
Later, we interact with teachers, friends, romantic partners and coworkers who communicate their views of us. Thus,
how we see ourselves reflects the views of us that others communicate.
The profound connection between identity and communication is dramatically evident in children who are deprived
of human contact. Case studies of children who are isolated from others reveal that they lack a firm self-concept, and
their mental and psychological development is severely hindered by lack of language.
Communications with others not only affects our sense of identity, but also directly influences our physical and
emotional well- being. Consistently, research shows that communicating with others promotes health, whereas social
isolation is linked to stress, disease, and early death.
People who lack close friends have greater levels of anxiety and depression than people who are close to others. A

作文解析
此次作文考的是学生忽视汉语学习现象及其原因、后果和对策分析。本次试题仍 是延续以往考试风格，
关注与学生相关学习、生活和社会问题，应该说这个题目从选题角度来看还是比较 好把握的。
拿到题目时如何分析？引用沪江网校六级冲关班谢老师的一句话，写六级作文应该大而 化之不拘小节。
看到这个题目，分析一下题目涉及到了哪些方面，而原因和对策必然是与这几方面相关的 。题目是近年来在
学生中出现了忽视中文学习的现象。学生问题一般很容易联想到社会、校方及自身。因 此全文可做如下安排。
第一段总起全文，陈述这一现象的存在。由于国际交流需要，如今语言学习 的重心基本是外语学习，汉
语学习却越来越不受重视了。
第二段进行原因和后果分析。我 们可以从社会、校方及自身三方面进行论述。由于是社会问题，我们可
以主要论述社会和校方两层原因。 第一，整个社会重视外语多于汉语。在就业时，掌握至少一门外语比掌握
汉语更有优势。后果是大多数学 生都不再认可汉语学习的重要性了。第二，高校中也是重视外语教育，忽视
汉语教育。有这两点原因就足 够了。另外由于字数和时间限制，可以不必另起一段陈述后果，而将后果放在
每条原因后面进行简要说明 。
第三段进行对策分析。需要注意的是，这里的对策应与第二段提出的原因相对应。因此，第三段 也应从
社会和校方这两个角度进行论述。全社会应该重视起汉语学习，校方应推进汉语教育和研究。当然 ，我们也
可以加上一点，即我们每个人都要去努力学习和保护汉语。
最后一段总结全文，既可以概述全文主题思想，也可以提出期望和要求。
总的来说，这篇文章不难写。需要大家注意的有三点：一是论述条理性，二是总-分- 总结构运用，三是尽
可能做到表达的多样化。

该题可用 排除法得出答案。从对话中可知，男士忘了将女士书带来，而女士的那本书是她从图书馆借来

诺，将书 带给女士。
12. C) The woman should spend more time outdoors.

该对话中，男士想要买那些T恤，但女士认为“你会后悔的。他们很贵，同时她 还听说这种T恤洗时候容

15. A) Leave Daisy alone for the time being.
由女士说的“if I were you, I’d let her cool off a few days before I approach her”，因此，女士希望男士先让
Daisy冷静几天，等怒气消停再说。cool off意为“冷静，平静下来，息怒”。
16. A) Batteries.
男士刚开始便问“where I can get batteries…”，因此本文选A。
17. D) The man can get the ticket at its original price.
该对话中，男士没买到票，而女士则刚好有，她身体不舒服，故而想将自己的票以原 价转让给男士，故
选D。该文主要是由“You can have it for what it cost me”得出。

48 答案在Answer 部分的第一段第二句。原文中的deserve wide latitude与have the freedom 意义相近，

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
promote learning 与encourage learning 表达的意思相同。因此答案是select the method of grading，指选择判分

51 答案在文章最后一句，应填入的内容是discuss his concern.
Section B
Passage 1
52. A) America is now the only developed country without the policy.
由第一自然段最后一句“We’re now the only wealthy country without such a policy”可得出答案，答案A中
developed其实就与wealthy的同义。
53. D) The opposition from business circles.
由文章第二自然段可看出，美国商会和其他商业团体常常对于美国关于平衡工作与家庭生活两者关系的
法 律均是百般阻挠，相反民主党领导人常常是支持这项法律的。
54. B) Good parenting benefits society.
Anne Alstott教授在其书中表达的主要观点就是“justifying parental support depends on defining the family as
a social good that, in some sense, society must pay for.”也就 是说应该将家庭视作一个为社会带来好处的事情，同
时该段中后面也阐述了社会期望也需要家长们对他们 的孩子付出关爱。因此，教授的主要观点可以概括为良
好的教养能造福于社会。
55. B) They fail to provide enough support for parents.
由最后一段中“The state recognizes this in the large body of family laws that govern children’s welfare, yet
parents receive little help in meeting the life-changing obligations society imposes.”尽管州政府意识到了养育孩子
的重要性，但是仍然家长们接受的帮 助少之又少，因此答案为B。
56. D) It is basically a social undertaking.
由文中最后一段“To classify parenting as a personal choice for which there is no collective responsibility is not
merely to ignore the social benefits of good parenting…”可得出， 将养育孩子作为一种个人选择，而不加之以社
会责任的话，便是忽视良好教养所产生的社会效应……这里 的collective responsibility指的就是一种社会责任，
意指良好教养是一个 需要全社会共同努力的事业，因为其带来的社会效应是巨大的。因此作者反对将养育孩
25

大学英语六级真题及答案解析(Word版)
子仅仅作为个人选择来看待。作者需要的是collective responsibility，因 此答案选D，因为教养孩子是一种社
会事业。该题是带概括性质的题。

57 A) More young voters are going to the polls than before.
本题问CIRCLE新研究发现是什么，注意题目问的是 CIRCLE的研究，文章第一句就说研究发现当今的
年轻人比前几代年轻人更多地参与投票，因此选A 项。注意B项是另一项研究的发现。
58 C) Whether young people will continue to support Osama’s policy.
本题问 “Ｏ”代人作家主要关心是什么。文章第二段中说道他们想要观察年轻人是否会继续支持奥巴马。
因此此 题选Ｃ项。
59 D) Their lives in relation to Osama’s presidency.
本题问“Ｏ”代人博客会写什么东西。文章第二段中说 会记录美国人的生活，看新的总统和他的政府会如
何影响人民的生活，也就是记录奥巴马政府怎样影响人 民的生活，因此此题选Ｄ项。
60 C) Their utilization of the Internet.
本题问在Henry Flores看来，是什么原因造成年轻一代开始有一 定的政治优势。文章最后一段告诉我们
互联网使年轻人接触更多的思想，也使不同地区有着同样想法的人 聚集起来，因此本题选C。
61 D) They are indifferent to politics.
本题问从本段话中我们可以推断出“X”代人有什么特征。文章最后一段的倒 数第二句话说“boomer”摆脱了
