给各位加鸡血+阅读作文狗

下午场考的, 明显已经换基金了; 本啦打算改考的, 后来硬着头皮上了, 结果比上次看基金后考的好.所以同志们不要担心啊.

一战看基金,考了640; 今天下午出分后吓我一跳, V40, Q50, 750.

觉得是不是gmac的人知道基金的作用,所以在换库头几天题目会比较简单. 感觉是这样, 因为数学最后的几道题很简单, 本以为是我调库了.

祝大家好运啊.

作文题目是老题目, Citrus Fruits涨价了.

阅读一篇是讲中世纪女权的"golden age', 在12版的gmat官方指南中有. 一篇是讲人物传记中很少挖掘少年的作家的,但挖掘早年风格其实对作家整体的风格形成很有影响. 还有一篇是讲两种税收策略推进燃油效率的,讲的是一种对大卡车征税, 按照每小时每顿消耗量来衡量; 另外一种是对所有的能源都大幅度提高税收,促使公司自己想办法去节油.

Ir中考了领导fairness和sacrifice对大家elevation士气的影响.

给大家分享一点经验,供参考. 因为知道今天基金换了,所以昨晚没有睡好,今天上午还很慌神. 11点开始听古典音乐,暗示自己gmat是考thinking不是考memory的考试,要让我的脑子放松,不被记忆拖累. 大概听了一个半个小时,考试的时候我在草稿纸上写下Thinking changes the world. 然后考试过程中脑子真的开始在思考了. 所以跟大家分享考试的时候要多思考,不要因为记忆大脑被基金反而拖累啊.

祝大家好运.

  阅读补充基金上没有的-作家的早期作品，10月基金中有，并有原文，但考试文章没这么长，也是两段，第二段只有最后那个案例。经过检索，我在 《African American Review》 （Summer, 2006）考古到了阅读基金“54.早期作品”的原文：《The art of Tom Dent: notes on early evidence》原文有大量例证多达三四页，我经过比对前人的机经，将文章精简到精确符合机经描述的以下两段（想看未删减的童鞋可以直接检索文章名找到 那片超长的文章）：Unless one is engaged in the task of writing a fairly comprehensive biography, the study of a writer rarely begins with attention to her or his juvenilia. A writer's early attempts to overcome various anxieties of influence, to master the intricacies of language, and to forge a distinctive voice are either dismissed or trivialized. This habit, or perhaps convention, precludes opportunities to inquire into the origins of the writer's ultimate achievement and power. Valid inquiries, of course, can be initiated at points other than the formative years. Nevertheless, our insights into the writer's style and aesthetic might be strengthened by trying to identify the literary origins of creative production. This procedure is especially germane in efforts to account for Tom Dent's importance as an African American writer and intellectual.The governing presupposition for these notes is a claim about quality in writing. The art or skill that makes good writing is a possession of value and an activity of mind that is never exactly, as Richard Wright accurately proposed in "Blueprint for Negro Writing," on the page. The art is in perspective. The page is a catalyst for the engagement of the reader's mind with that of the writer; they collaborate on a vision of reality, agreeing or disagreeing as the case might be. Thomas Covington Dent (or as he preferred, Tom Dent), a New Orleans writer best known for his work with Free Southern Theater and his extraordinarily popular play Ritual Murder, his electric mentorship of younger writers and artists, and his work in oral history that culminated in Southern Journey (1997), certainly had perspective in the sense that Richard Wright intended; Dent also had subtle political and historically analytic perspectives on African American cultures. These perspectives are richly manifested in Dent's fledgling work as a journalist, specifically from writing produced during his tenure as editor-in-chief of the Maroon Tiger, the Morehouse College newspaper, during 1951-52. His editorials in Volume 53, Numbers 1-6, provide early evidence of what we are beginning to understand about his orientation toward reality, his aesthetic preferences, his complex and historically grounded modes of thought and expression. This evidence, crucial for a full assessment of Dent's later work, marks Dent as a writer from the Black South who sought more than the vapors of fame.第一段讲很多研究忽视研究作家的早期作品，而对早期作品的研究则对研究该作家观点和写作手法的形成有很大的价值。第 二段讲对dent的早期作品研究发现他的作品的观点什么的在他早期editorial的作品中就体现了，云云。举例说一个B Den什么的人，对American African历史和政治有subtle 观点，发觉他的观点主要源于他早期当editor的工作，在那时候，他的编辑就显示了他独特的观点，所以证明研究早期作品作用很大。一道题问作者认为dent被认为影响很大的原因？定位到第二段第一还是第二句，是dent对Africa American文化的见解有一道问B Den 的American African历史和政治有subtle 观点来源于什么？ 应该选他的work说 他读大学时当编辑，对他后面很有影响，一题是逻辑题，看哪个选项weaken了这种说法。开篇有个和juvenile很像的词，大概就是说青少年的意思 还有formativ（adj. (影响)形成[构成, 发展]的）这个词我选了C, 说人后期和前期作品中有很大的break.Q1. Which of the following would the author most likely to agree regarding the study on the early works of the writers一道题问作者认为对作家早期作品的研究有什么特点？我选了这种研究比较少，也就是uncommon（罕见的）还有一个选项是 trivialized，刚查了是被轻视的意思，我觉得可能是后者，大家参考下其他考友的JJ吧~--> It is uncommon. (A confusing but incorrect choice is: The study is often trivialized. )Q2. Which of the following would most seriously undermine the author's argument in favor of the study on works produced by fledging writers -->Writers often make some radical change at some point of their career(2) 主题题:如该题是内容型:推测应为其主题句改写,即虽然作家早期的作品常常被人忽略(没有学者愿意研究),但是研究这些作品(or经历)对其后来的成就有 正面的积极意义.大正小负.;如果是写法型主题题,推测应为:提出一个现象,举例说明这个现象.(举例说明早年作品or经历对后期作品有影响) 最后一个题问的是文章的大意是？选项好像都是关于dent的，我选了对dent的早期作品研究的价值。(3)有道题是问举黑人作家的例子的目的(很可能是in order to题),第一段的最后一句总结句的同义变换.
  V2 By 傻丫头小佳
  一篇是说对作家的研究常年忽视了他们年轻时代的作品或活动，研究这些其实对研究writer之后的作品风格都是有帮助的。然后第二段举了一个人的例子，这 个人以African American文化出名的，说他早年在学报担任主编，还做过记者，说这些对他形成政治主张有帮助什么的。

golden age露珠指的是这个么？？

Two works published in 1984 demonstrate
contrasting approaches to writing the history of
United States women. Buel and Buel’s biography of
Mary Fish (1736–1818) makes little effort to place
her story in the context of recent historiography on
women. Lebsock, meanwhile, attempts not only to
write the history of women in one southern
community, but also to redirect two decades of
historiographical debate as to whether women
gained or lost status in the nineteenth century as
compared with the eighteenth century. Although
both books offer the reader the opportunity to
assess this controversy regarding women’s status,
only Lebsock’s deals with it directly. She examines
several different aspects of women’s status, helping
to refi ne and resolve the issues. She concludes that
while women gained autonomy in some areas,
especially in the private sphere, they lost it in many
aspects of the economic sphere. More importantly,
she shows that the debate itself depends on frame
of reference: in many respects, women lost power
in relation to men, for example, as certain jobs
(delivering babies, supervising schools) were taken
over by men. Yet women also gained power in
comparison with their previous status, owning a
higher proportion of real estate, for example. In
contrast, Buel and Buel’s biography provides ample
raw material for questioning the myth, fostered by
some historians, of a colonial golden age in the
eighteenth century but does not give the reader
much guidance in analyzing the controversy over
women’s status.

76. The primary purpose of the passage is to
(A) examine two sides of a historiographical debate
(B) call into question an author’s approach to a
historiographical debate
(C) examine one author’s approach to a
historiographical debate
(D) discuss two authors’ works in relationship to a
historiographical debate
(E) explain the prevalent perspective on a
historiographical debate


77. The author of the passage mentions the supervision of
schools primarily in order to
(A) remind readers of the role education played in
the cultural changes of the nineteenth century in
the United States
(B) suggest an area in which nineteenth-century
American women were relatively free to exercise
power
(C) provide an example of an occupation for which
accurate data about women’s participation are
diffi cult to obtain
(D) speculate about which occupations were
considered suitable for United States women of
the nineteenth century
(E) illustrate how the answers to questions about
women’s status depend on particular contexts



78. With which of the following characterizations of
Lebsock’s contribution to the controversy concerning
women’s status in the nineteenth-century United
States would the author of the passage be most likely
to agree?
(A) Lebsock has studied women from a formerly
neglected region and time period.
(B) Lebsock has demonstrated the importance of
frame of reference in answering questions about
women’s status.
(C) Lebsock has addressed the controversy by
using women’s current status as a frame of
reference.
(D) Lebsock has analyzed statistics about
occupations and property that were previously
ignored.
(E) Lebsock has applied recent historiographical
methods to the biography of a nineteenthcentury
woman.


79. According to the passage, Lebsock’s work differs from
Buel and Buel’s work in that Lebsock’s work
(A) uses a large number of primary sources
(B) ignores issues of women’s legal status
(C) refuses to take a position on women’s status in
the eighteenth century
(D) addresses larger historiographical issues
(E) fails to provide suffi cient material to support its
claims



80. The passage suggests that Lebsock believes that
compared to nineteenth-century American women,
eighteenth-century American women were
(A) in many respects less powerful in relation to
men
(B) more likely to own real estate
(C) generally more economically independent
(D) more independent in conducting their private
lives
(E) less likely to work as school superintendents


81. The passage suggests that Buel and Buel’s biography
of Mary Fish provides evidence for which of the
following views of women’s history?
(A) Women have lost power in relation to men since
the colonial era.
(B) Women of the colonial era were not as likely to
be concerned with their status as were women
in the nineteenth century.
(C) The colonial era was not as favorable for women
as some historians have believed.
(D) Women had more economic autonomy in the
colonial era than in the nineteenth century.
(E) Women’s occupations were generally more
respected in the colonial era than in the
nineteenth century
