上午刚考完,第一次考,720 V35 Q 51。复习时间不长,平时都要上班,考前请了9天假集中突击,这个结果还是比较满意的。要感谢在CD上获得的许多宝贵资源和经验。 趁着脑子清醒,说点机经。 作文:先考AA,再考AI。 AA: The following appeared in an editorial from a newspaper serving the town of Saluda: “The Saluda Consolidated High School offers more than 200 different courses from which its students can choose. A much smaller private school down the street offers a basic curriculum of only 80 different courses, but it consistently sends a higher proportion of its graduating seniors on to college than Consolidated does. By eliminating at least half of the courses offered there and focusing on a basic curriculum, we could improve student performance at Consolidated and also save many tax dollars.” AI: “The most effective way for managers to assign work is to divide complex tasks into their simpler component parts. This way, each worker completes a small portion of the task but contributes to the whole.” 阅读: 第一篇 关于经济学研究的。较穷的国家,按理说资本的流入应当比流出要多。但事实上,较穷的国家的aborad investment反倒较多。对这一现象的解释是较穷的国家financial system不够健全,国内投资机会相对较少。 第二篇 早期的照相。第一段说它和绘画、雕塑什么的很不同,被看作是对现实的真实写照,“never lie”。第二段举了个反例,是说在一张拍摄巴黎的大道的照片上,只有两个人,而街道平时是熙熙攘攘的。这是因为早期的照相术,运动的物体不能在底片上留下影像。 第三篇 关于Latino American作家。是说20世纪早期,他们的成就没有被看作是这一群体的成就。举例谈到两部1994年出版的作品,一个是关于美墨战争中的妇女形象,另一个是某作家的传记。
第四篇 动物群体在size扩大时警惕性降低。有两种解释:一是group大了,捕食者容易被探测到,于是动物们就更加放心;另一个是,种群大了,每个个体被捕食的概率降低了。 逻辑 能想起一个 关于某城市的出租车的。是说在demand到高峰时,出租车的运营率却不是最高的。原因是雨雪天气很多司机不出行。问哪一个可以加强作者的结论。 其他的太琐碎,就不说了。 |
