我也有同样疑问

yoyonline

It's so strange that a totally different article in my GWD 4 Q9-12. And it's the same as GWD 3 Q12-15.  Weiyu or anyboby, could you  please help me figure  it out? Thanks a lot.

这题让我想起gwd 6-v-35

Q35:

The primary purpose of the passage is to

A.explain the true reasons for the increase in Thailand’s GDP

B.argue for the adoption of certain rural development projects

C.question the value of technological development in Thailand

D.criticize certain assumptions about economic development in Thailand

E.compare traditional and modern development strategies in Thailand

讨论集中在答案B和D

同样问写作的目的，同样给出两个方向，一个是批评，一个是提出建议，文章着重在批评，但批评的目的是要提出一个更好的方法，怎么看两个答案都象，ETS真鬼，实在晕！

  Students’ perceptions would

matter less if business schools

were not increasingly dependent on

external funding－form legislatures,

businesses, and private foundations－

for survival.  Concerned with their

(45)     institutions’ ability to attract funding,

administrators are increasingly tar-

geting low-enrollment courses and

degree programs for elimination.

Sorry, 有谁愿意帮忙翻译一下上方最后一段两句话的中文意思,小弟我实在有些看不懂ㄝ,感激不尽!

学生的认知与商学院所依赖的外界资金赞助有关，依赖的越少，对学生的认知影响就越少。为了吸引更多的赞助资金，学院管理者消除了这些课程。

Q9 to Q12:

      Behavior science courses should

       be gaining prominence in business

       school curricula.  Recent theoretical

Line       work convincingly shows why behav-

  (5)       ioral factors such as organizational

culture and employee relations are

among the few remaining sources of

sustainable competitive advantage in

modern organizations.  Furthermore,

(10)      empirical evidence demonstrates

clear linkages between human

resource (HR) practices based in

the behavioral sciences and various

aspects of a firm’s financial success.

(15)      Additionally, some of the world’s most

successful organizations have made

unique HR practices a core element

of their overall business strategies.

      Yet the behavior sciences

(20)      are struggling for credibility in many

business schools.  Surveys show

that business students often regard

behavioral studies as peripheral to

       the mainstream business curriculum.

(25)      This perception can be explained by

the fact that business students, hoping

to increase their attractiveness to

prospective employers, are highly

sensitive to business norms and

(30)      practices, and current business

practices have generally been

moving away from an emphasis on

       understanding human behavior and

toward more mechanistic organiza-

(35)      tional models.  Furthermore, the

       status of HR professionals within

organizations tends to be lower

than that of other executives.

      Students’ perceptions would

(40)      matter less if business schools

were not increasingly dependent on

external funding—form legislatures,

businesses, and private foundations—

for survival.  Concerned with their

(45)      institutions’ ability to attract funding,

administrators are increasingly tar-

Q9:

The primary purpose of the passage is to

              

1. propose a particular change to business school curricula


2. characterize students’ perceptions of business school curricula


3. predict the consequences of a particular change in business school curricula


4. challenge one explanation for the failure to adopt a particular change in business school curricula


5. identify factors that have affected the prestige of a particular field in business school curricula

认为应该选e, 文章从正负两面谈了对business school curricula中bahavior sicence的影响

第一段：有利的

第二、三段：不利的

一路看下来看到这个贴子我才算弄清楚了为什么选E。谢谢楼上的NN！！

findjuhl

支持选E，如果选A，作者的文章逻辑思路应该重点谈，这个change的好处，必要性，如何change，而不应该重点谈，为什么不进行这个change
