12.14 四站730 心经加鸡精 - 感谢CD

alexcy0228

这是第四次考了。 去年考了三次， 都是680. 灰心过，失落过。不过一直没有放弃。 今天看到屏幕的那一刻， 终于圆满了。 谢谢cd,陪我走过的日子。

先说数学鸡精 ，现在的鸡精已经很充足了。 虽然看到英文会有些不陌生，但是一旦你理解题目后发现和鸡精的题一样， 或者思路相同，算起来就很快。 数学拿了51


1. 补充194， there are two figures abcd, and dcba,  a,b,c,d are positve integers, but can be the same.  What's the greatest difference between abcd and dcba.  The answer is 8,712 (abcd = 9911 and cdba = 1199). 8642 is wrong choice


2. 补充203 . what is the unit digit of the figure P to the power (xy).
1.  the unit digit of figure P to the power x is 1
2. the unit digit of figure P to the power y is 1 (sorry, I dont know how to type)
The anwer is each is sufficient.


3. 补充105. same as JJ, the answer is 2x+1.


Then comes to the verbal JJ. Sorry that I can only remember RC.  verbal score is 38


RC
1.  JJ 34 - First reading is about trademark law in UK. The first paragraph mentions that there is no trademark law in UK before 1850.  the second para says that however, lacking a trademark law at that time does not mean there is no enforcement of trademark protection at that time. Then the author gives examples to support that, different industry have different application of trademark law, but towards a trend of enacting a unifying law of system. The third paragraph points out that the trademark law in UK at that time can not protect the goods sold in abroad which is made by UK merchants, as there are many counterfeit goods overseas, imitating UK's product


2. JJ39  middle-ear muscle . First paragragh introduces how middle-ear muscle works in human being ( Not the main point the topic) Second and third paragraph then explains how the middle-ear muscle can work as a noise-reduction device in human being, not only protect internal noice (such as baby crying), but also protects external louds


3. JJ44 commercial message in TV program  -  agree with V2.


4. JJ11 The last reading is about odder. 和鸡精里贴的阅读几乎完全一样。 我基本上就没再读，直接做题了。 那片阅读三道题大概3分钟就做完了， 才令我后面时间又追回来了的。 大家一定要好好读一下这些文字。 文中的铺排，意思和下面几乎100%一样。 摘录V5:考友tanqingye.  就是这些。 考试没这么多。但是意思全在下文了 。一点也不少。加粗是和考试文章完全一直。


TheU.S. Department of Agriculture lists dodderamong the country's 10 worst weeds.When a dodder seed sprouts, it doesn't growroots. All its energy goes into atendril that shoots out in search of plants totap for water and nutrients. Ifit's going to survive, it must latch on to avictim within about a week. Thevine grows into a spaghetti tangle and can attackmultiple plants, stuntingtheir growth but not killing them. Of the 150 species ofdodder,the researchers selected Cuscuta pentagona, says coauthor Justin Runyon,alsoof Penn State. This species bedevils tomato growers in California, whereitcosts them an estimated $4 million a year in reduced yields.

De Moraes' team and other researchers havestudiedthe volatile compounds released by plants that are mauled bycaterpillars orother pests. At first, the researchers set various possibletargets severalcentimeters from dodder sprouts. A pot of moist soil alonedidn't attract theseedlings, nor did vials of dyed water that created coloredlight.But a potwith a young tomato plant, and even a cup of perfume made oftomato volatiles,did attract the seedlings To minimize any confounding cues,such as shading orlight, the researchers then set the possible attractants inchambers connectedto the plant by curving pipes. Again, the seedlings grewtoward the scent. Testingvarious victim species, the researchers found thatdodder grows towardimpatiens and tomatoes.Wheat won't sustain dodder well, andgiven a choice,parasite seedlings shunned it and grew toward tomatoes.

When researchers tested seven ingredients inthetomato perfume individually, three of them proved attractive to the dodder.Oneof those attractants showed up in wheat, but the wheat perfume alsocontained asubstance that repelled the seedlings. Such a repellent might offera new routefor fighting dodder, Mescher speculates.  


最后补充一下作文


AA - JJ 30


“Localclothing stores reported that their profits decreased, on average, for thethree-month period between August 1 and October 31. Stores that sell productsfor the home reported that, on average, their profits increased during thissame period. Clearly, consumers are choosing to buy products for their homesinstead of clothing. To take advantage of this trend, we should reduce the sizeof our clothing departments and enlarge our home furnishings and householdproducts departments.”

How effectively one learns in the classroom depends more on the quality of other students than on the quality of the teacher.




这次复习的重点放在练习GWD, 10天， 每天一套gwd, 然后用timer chaser 显示每题用的时间。 发现自己阅读和逻辑平均一题要用2；30秒， 一直致力练pace. 。 从一开始错21道，慢慢到了后面就错9到左右。 我觉得一方面是速度提上来了， 然后真题的考点更隐蔽，后来就开始习惯gmat的考点思维了 。  这得从平时就开始练。  我觉得pace和紧张感是最重要   这样才能上了考场心态能hold住
数学我是考前5天开始的。每天鸡精做50道。 鸡精做了两遍。 然后同时重复做practice test 1 去练英文的熟悉度。我数学一共练了三次prep, 一次46， 一次50， 最后一次就51了。我想找到那种51份的感觉很重要。


附上我最后阶段的总结。 前半部分是重点。 后半部分是阅读鸡精的归纳 和 AWA template（制作了20片） 。大家加油啊！

回复ls，虽然我不是lz，但是我13号考的二战也有730(M50 V38) GWD 我也是练了大概9-10套左右吧，从第7到19套，中间缺了两三套，平均错在9-14个，错11,13个居多，而且我一直也看过那个prep语法笔记，所以语法很多是记得的，但是我中间空了两个月，然后用大概一个月备了二战的，但是我用那个白勇语法(3-4天做完，里面很多题目我都是以前没见过的），语法就很快上手了，可能是各人思维不一样，有人觉得用白勇是先总结再做题，记不住，但我的情况是用prep语法笔记一题题做没有一种强烈的感觉，而且总结起来有点麻烦，呵呵有点说开了，总而言之，我的GWD语法很多都是碰过的，但是我还是会按总白勇那样，停留一会儿把问题找出来，这样才能保证那个pace是正确的，然后逻辑和阅读的正确率就是真实的，记得白勇那里开篇的那个统计给我挺大的信心的，说语法保持75-80%，逻辑50%-60%，阅读30%左右然后V就能在31-33，如果数学有50或以上就很容易上7了，当然我的阅读虽然训练得少，只做了那个OG的，但是我有仔细总结，而且最重要通过GWD我的阅读能沉得住气看完，而且感觉越来越好，所以阅读最后是有60-80%的正确率，这样就算我的语法在GWD统计出来的80%的基础上降一点，V也是能保持35的，呵呵，说的有点多，希望对你有用~~

谢谢楼主分享！！！今天被GWD虐完崩溃了半天，收拾旧山河，下决心准备这几天狂练GWD提速度了。。。再加上寂静。。。哎 真心觉得寂静也是相当多。。。anyway...安心地把这几天过了吧

谢谢LZ，这么快就回复拉。。LZ的复习好紧凑阿，可惜俺是在职，桑不起呀，估计考试前都没有什么整块的时间复习。。打算打酱油去拉。。不过话说回来，如果没有很多时间模考，看JJ会不会更有效些？

我也在职啊 哈哈。 不过请了假复习。 jj是中文的， 感觉真正考的时候除非英文和你看的一样，不然jj只会阻碍思考。 我前两次就寄望jj，没系统复习，结果不理想。

alexcy0228

见我的回复

alexcy0228

我12月1日第一次做gwd 错21个， 然后每次就慢慢第三套就13个。 但有时也会有17个。 最后就稳定在9个了。 我觉得gwd每套题的难度都不一样， 不要太在意。 比如TN16对我就比较难。 有9道题没做。  但是千万别因为越做越差而放弃。 要重视每次做完题后的总结工作。并且坚信下次会更好。 在这过程中，就练就了很好的心态， 对考试很有帮助。 如何在短时间内高压力下做题并保持做题的感觉是按时做gwd的目的， 做完后每套题分类分析gwd是巩固知识点的方法 。 慢慢我发现语法的感觉就变好了， 语法题可以做到秒杀的境界。

附件是我做了9套题gwd13-21的错误数 (目， 及错误分类， 和每题所用时间。 你可以参考一下， 其实发挥也不是特别稳定。 但总之gwd在做了10套以后是提高了。


我觉得jj光看没用， 罗技和语法还得靠自己。 阅读可以帮一点。 所以gwd还是很重要的

楼主，本人准备三战，你之前有做过GWD么？ 到现在GWD的正确率是多少？  我一战的时候一般错20个，二战的时候一般错14个，现在三战还有10天考了，一般错9个，想问下这跟记得题目有关系么？？ 你情况怎样的？

大葱~~~~~~~~对于GWD练pace....希望楼主讲多些。。
我今天连续练到第三天。。。。速度依然感觉不到提高，要命的是发现错题基本上都出在没时间想蒙的里头。。自己有时间静下心来做的正确率蛮高。。。我一直都是做题慢的孩纸。。。
十套就能把速度成功提上来嘛？、。。。哎 太虐心了！！！求指导！！！
