11月28号在荷兰考的新GRE
Issue:
The greatness of individuals can be decided only by those who live after them, not by their contemporaries.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.
Argument:
The following is a recommendation from the personnel director to the president of Acme Publishing Company.
"Many other companies have recently stated that having their employees take the Easy Read Speed-Reading Course has greatly improved productivity. One graduate of the course was able to read a 500-page report in only two hours; another graduate rose from an assistant manager to vice president of the company in under a year. Obviously, the faster you can read, the more information you can absorb in a single workday. Moreover, Easy Read would cost Acme only $500 per employee—a small price to pay when you consider the benefits. Included in this fee is a three-week seminar in Spruce City and a lifelong subscription to the Easy Read newsletter. Clearly, to improve productivity, Acme should require all of our employees to take the Easy Read course."
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the advice and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the advice.
想必大家对以上这两道题目都有自己的看法，我就不多说了。而且本来作文也没有标准答案，只要言之有理即可。让我欣慰的是两个作文的时间都够用，最后还有时间检查一下语法错误。我自己的经验是：不要用太多的时间去列提纲，因为没有最好只有更好，所以时间永远会不够用，就像钱挣得再多也不够花。而且要对自己创作的东西有信心，大胆去写。
作文完后我抽到QVQVQ,第一个Q肯定是加试，因为简单到让我不敢相信这是给研究生出的题。后面两个Q的题目难度正常些，我觉得数学把握好基本知识+认识数学单词+练习几套题，肯定没问题。对我而言，第一个V很难，所以状况百出：单词不懂、逻辑分析不出来、时间紧迫。。。所以第二个V的时候，我临时调整策略：先做填空题，然后再做短阅读，最后做大阅读，情况比第一个V好些。（PS：我的V中，题目的顺序是双空双选+三空三选+阅读+单空双选+单空单选）。对于V，单词还是核心，要不然学的做题方法都用不上，还有就是多练习，这可是应付这类考试的法宝。
最后考的分数就跟大家分享了，不是很高，但是只有1个月的准备时间，所以我也不苛求些什么了，凑合着用吧。希望我的经验能给大家些许帮助，祝大家考个好成绩，申请顺利~~ |
