坐稳：
一个类似于Burger King这样的食品连锁店的Director写信给一个Local Restaurant的owner，很臭屁的说因为他们连锁店能更节省成本和吸引顾客，请Local Restaurant加入他们的连锁店。
可以质疑（仅供参考）：1）他说的好处是否仅仅因为连锁店的因素造成的，还有很多其他可能的因素，尤其在吸引顾客方面；2）分析样本不足，仅仅看他们这个连锁品牌不能得出这样的普遍结论；3）Local Restaurant owner是否选择加入连锁店的标准并不一定只看cost和customer，说不定开店是人家的爱好哩。

IR：
记得第一个就是带阅读短文的那种题，大致内容是三个远古的部落，分别擅长捕鱼、打猎和农耕，所以各自的食物偏重Seafood、Meat和Crops。然后吃Seafood那个部落在600~1200年间人口增长很快（这里有出题）。这三个部落互相之间有trade交换食物，但是农耕那个因为地理位置的关系只和打猎那个部落交换（这里有出题）。

酥雪：
五个仓库还是什么，最大容量分别是多少多少，然后装的货物分别是多少多少，列了一个表格。问如果要求最大容量和实际装货的差都一样，某个仓库应该装多少？
很简单的题，把平均的相差值算出来，用最大容量一减就是了，记得答案应该是80-18=62。但是当时不知道怎么脑子抽了，竟然用实际装货数去加了。。然后刚一点提交键就反应过来了，但是已经然并卵，说起来都是眼泪，忍痛贡献。。

悦毒：
有那道蛇题，陆蛇水蛇树蛇各种蛇，讲它们如何适应不同情况下重力的影响。一段讲心脏分别在什么位置（这里有出题）；一段讲它们习惯采用些什么体位；最后一段讲这种适应性的限制，树蛇的体长相比起来还是偏短（这里有出题）。

愈发和裸基：
完全不记得了。。裸基有一道：航空公司在飞机上装座位很在乎座位的重量，因为耗油嘛，安全性强的座位比较重，所以航空公司都不怎么用。但后来某一天大家突然纷纷用这种座位了，问为什么？答案是某种新技术出现使这种座位变得又坚固又轻了。看完觉得航空公司好贱。

楼主请问逻辑你考到的是这个咩
In the past most airline companies minimized aircraft weight to minimize fuel
costs. The safest airline seats were heavy, and airlines equipped their planes with
few of these seats. This year the seat that has sold best to airlines has been the
safest one—a clear indication that airlines are assigning a higher priority to safe
seating than to minimizing fuel costs.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above?
(A) Last year’s best-selling airline seat was not the safest airline seat on the
market.
(B) No airline company has announced that it would be making safe seating
a higher priority this year.
(C) The price of fuel was higher this year than it had been in most of the
years when the safest airline seats sold poorly.
(D) Because of increases in the cost of materials, all airline seats were more
expensive to manufacture this year than in any previous year.
(E) Because of technological innovations, the safest airline seat on the
market this year weighed less than most other airline seats on the market.

你做的是不是这篇：
In terrestrial environments, gravity places special demands on the cardiovascular systems of animals. Gravitational pressure can cause blood to pool in the lower regions of the body, making it difficult to circulate blood to critical organs such as the brain. Terrestrial snakes, in particular, exhibit adaptations that aid in circulating blood against the
force of gravity.
The problem confronting terrestrial snakes is best illustrated by what happens to sea snakes when removed from their supportive medium. Because the vertical pressure gradients within the blood vessels are counteracted by similar pressure gradients in the surrounding water, the distribution of blood throughout the body of sea snakes remains about the same regardless of their orientation in space,provided they remain in the ocean. When removed from the water and tilted at various angles with the head up, however, blood pressure at their midpoint drops significantly, and at brain level falls to zero.
That many terrestrial snakes in similar spatial orientations do not experience this kind of circulatory failure suggests that certain adaptations enable them to regulate blood pressure more effectively in those orientations.
One such adaptation is the closer proximity of the terrestrial snake's heart to its head, which helps to ensure circulation to the brain, regardless of the snake’s orientation in space. The heart of sea snakes can be located near the middle of the body, a position that minimizes the work entailed in circulating blood to both extremities. In arboreal snakes, however, which dwell in trees and often assume a vertical posture, the average distance from the heart to the head can be as little as 15 percent of overall body length. Such a location requires that blood circulated to the tail of the snake travel a greater distance back to the heart, a problem solved by another adaptation. When climbing, arboreal snakes often pause momentarily to wiggle their bodies, causing waves of muscle contraction that advance from the lower torso to the head. By compressing the veins and forcing blood forward, these contractions apparently improve the flow of venous blood returning to the heart.
The passage provides information in support of which of the following
assertions?
(A) The disadvantages of an adaptation to a particular feature of an environment
often outweigh the advantages of such an adaptation.
(B) An organism's reaction to being placed in an environment to which it is not well adapted can sometimes illustrate the problems that have been solved by the adaptations of organisms indigenous to that environment.
(C) The effectiveness of an organism's adaptation to a particular feature of its environment can only be evaluated by examining the effectiveness with which organisms of other species have adapted to a similar feature of a different environment.
(D) Organisms of the same species that inhabit strikingly different environments will often adapt in remarkably similar ways to the few features of those environments that are common.
(E) Different species of organisms living in the same environment will seldom adapt to features of that environment in the same way.
Answer: B
According to the passage, one reason that the distribution of blood in the sea
snake changes little while the creature remains in the ocean is that
(A) the heart of the sea snake tends to be located near the center of its body
(B) pressure gradients in the water surrounding the sea snake counter the effects of vertical pressure gradients within its blood vessels
(C) the sea snake assumes a vertical posture less frequently than do the terrestrial and the arboreal snake
(D) the sea snake often relies on waves of muscle contractions to help move blood from the torso to the head
(E) the force of pressure gradients in the water surrounding the sea snake exceeds that of vertical pressure gradients within its circulatory system
Answer: B
It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is true of
species of terrestrial snakes that often need to assume a vertical posture?
(A) They are more likely to be susceptible to circulatory failure in vertical
postures than are sea snakes.
(B) Their hearts are less likely to be located at the midpoint of their bodies than is the case with sea snakes.
(C) They cannot counteract the pooling of blood in lower regions of their bodies as effectively as sea snakes can.
(D) The blood pressure at their midpoint decreases significantly when they are tilted with their heads up.
(E) They are unable to rely on muscle contractions to move venous blood from the lower torso to the head.
Answer: B
The author describes the behavior of the circulatory system of sea snakes
when they are removed from the ocean (see lines 17-20) primarily in order to
(A) illustrate what would occur in the circulatory system of terrestrial snakes without adaptations that enable them to regulate their blood pressure in vertical orientations
(B) explain why arboreal snakes in vertical orientations must rely on muscle contractions to restore blood pressure to the brain
(C) illustrate the effects of circulatory failure on the behavior of arboreal snakes
(D) illustrate the superiority of the circulatory system of the terrestrial snake to that of the sea snake
(E) explain how changes in spatial orientation can adversely affect the circulatory system of snakes with hearts located in relatively close proximity to their heads
Answer: A
It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is a true
statement about sea snakes?
(A) They frequently rely on waves of muscle contractions from the lower torso to the head to supplement the work of the heart.
(B) They can not effectively regulate their blood pressure when placed in sea water and tilted at an angle with the head pointed downward.
(C) They are more likely to have a heart located in close proximity to their heads than are arboreal snakes.
(D) They become acutely vulnerable to the effects of gravitational pressure on their circulatory system when they are placed in a terrestrial environment.
(E) Their cardiovascular system is not as complicated as that of arboreal snakes.
Answer: D
The author suggests that which of the following is a disadvantage that results
from the location of a snake's heart in close proximity to its head?
(A) A decrease in the efficiency with which the snake regulates the flow of blood to the brain
(B) A decrease in the number of orientations in space that a snake can assume without loss of blood flow to the brain
(C) A decrease in blood pressure at the snake's mid point when it is tilted at various angles with its head up
(D) An increase in the tendency of blood to pool at the snake's head when the snake is tilted at various angles with its head down
(E) An increase in the amount of effort required to distribute blood to and from the snake's tail
Answer: E
The primary purpose of the third paragraph is to
(A) introduce a topic that is not discussed earlier in the passage
(B) describe a more efficient method of achieving an effect discussed in the previous paragraph
(C) draw a conclusion based on information elaborated in the previous paragraph
(D) discuss two specific examples of phenomena mentioned at the end of the previous paragraph
(E) introduce evidence that undermines a view reported earlier in the passage
Answer: D
In the passage,the author is primarily concerned with doing which of the
following?
(A) Explaining adaptations that enable the terrestrial snake to cope with the effects of gravitational pressure on its circulatory system
(B) Comparing the circulatory system of the sea snake with that of the terrestrial snake
(C) Explaining why the circulatory system of the terrestrial snake is different from that of the sea snake
(D) Pointing out features of the terrestrial snake's cardiovascular system that make it superior to that of the sea snake
(E) Explaining how the sea snake is able to neutralize the effects of gravitational pressure on its circulatory system
Answer: A
