在职备战，抓住青春的尾巴

TPO一篇错一题， 基本上阅读比较稳定了。 可是问题是听力一直把握不住， 原来前段时间感觉很多没听懂的， 但是靠一些影响推断， 也能做对题。 现在开始记笔记，感觉整篇lecture能听懂，但是很多出题的细节就是没注意， 也没记下来。 2个section总是错8~12个， 快疯了， 怎么办啊？
确实是有些短语或句子没听出来， 是应该练答题技巧还是练精听啊

这两天写了作文， 准备找人帮忙看看。目前写得还是偏慢， 第一篇独立作文写580字花了50分钟那样。
关键点还是听力的突破， 现在把之前TPO1~7的听力还是好好一句句回顾一下， 否则光做题可能解决不了问题。
阅读一天做一篇TPO，保持状态即可。

能有高手帮忙看看吗？ 520字花了45分钟， 对时间和文章长短把握不到位。可惜当年考GRE时没顺便把托福也考了， 现在作文写的比较烂咯。

129. A university plans to develop a new research center in your country. Some people want a
center for business research. Other people want a center for research in agriculture (farming).
Which of these two kinds of research centers do you recommend for your country? Use specific
reasons in your recommendation.

Can you image the scene that thousands of people sell or buy agriculture products and sometimes bargain loudly at public fair in China? It's obvious that business have significant meaning in farming for Chinese. When asked about if it is more necessary to build a farming research agent rather than to built a business one, many people hold a definite answer. But as far as I am concerned, I prefer later choice.

At first, with the help of business, market could, as been clearly estimated by world famous economical experts, efficiently allocate needed resource for agriculture.  We can acquire much experience from the road of economic revolution in China.  Only with the help of "invisible hand" can products of faming be sold at a rational price, and hence, incent farmer to continue their work. And when the production overwhelms the need, market could also reduce the amount of production automatically.

Secondly, every people in China who engage in agriculture could benefit from all kinds of business tool, such as stock, financial aid and so on. Take one of my relatives as a example. He is a farmer, who is frequently afflicted by the shortage of enough cash to enlarge his farm and to enhance productivity consequently. Forturnately Fortunately, with the help of modern financial tools, he acquired much attention of investment companies and thus, attain enough money to purchase more and more equipment and land, since business man believe if they show him a hand right now, they can get dramastical  dramatic feedback.

Last but not the least, in our country, people will find it is so difficult to transport and search for target buyers, without the convient convenience offered by business. We can observe around society and focus on business model. So deplicated complicated is it that none people could handle all the work by himself, since it has been divided into several section within a business cycle. A farmer needs to sell his product to millions of common family through retail channels, and then trade for their daily consumable. When he spends all of his energy and skill in production, is he possible to sell hundreds of tons vegetable by knocking door one by one and just asking, "Hi, would you like this...?"

Admittedly, in order to improve the productivity of agriculture, we should also invest enough resource in agriculture technology research, namely, build enough farm research center. The more technology we have, the more production it is for whole society and the less possibility of  hungry human beings will encounter.  roductivity will decide our business model and trade style, as well as our habits.

All in all, as discussed above, It is undoubted that we should spend more resource into the construction of business research agency, especially in China which is just starting its  improvement for economic evolution with a short time. But as an old proverb said, "Each coin has its two sides." We can't invest all our energy in business while on the other hand, ignore the basic production and research of farm. Only after achieving a balance between them can human society move forward in a stable and solid pace.

唉， 今天还是超时了， 但是40分钟460字这样接近合理值了。

71. Which would you choose: a high-paying job with long hours that would give you little time with family and friends or a lower-paying job with shorter hours that would give you more time with family and friends? Explain your choice, using specific reasons and details.  

Have you ever experienced this kind of scene that your dear parents missed your birthday party each year because of daily mission?  What a pity! It is probably in recent society that when asked about people if they prefer busy work with significant salary or leisure work with relatively less income,  many people will incline to choose former selection. Nevertheless, as far as I am concerned, I prefer to the job with enough sparetime for several reasons.

First of all, to spend enough time with families have remarkable effection effect on the stability of whole family life. It is needless to say that one can not achieve further success without help of wife and understanding of children. Take one of my relatives for an example. He always worked hard and exhausted all energy at daily business of company, while spend little time to take care the people around him. As time gone by, the confliction under pretention  pretend emerged suddenly. Unfortunately, my relative has to waste dramatic attention on the relationship between him and his wife in order to avoid conflict, rather than to improve his ability in professional ability, let alone to earn more money.

Secondly, human beings, as we known, are one kinds of society animal. We can survival and step forward with and only with the cooperation and the support of other people.  One of my direct leader always focus in his work while don't care his employee. So fool is this style of manage method that all stuff can’t exert their ability and reduce our efficiency amazingly. Only with enough time to communication does one team combine together and move to a target.

Last but not the least, we can also utilize our spare time to enhance our ability and contelent competence to earn more money instead of simply increasing our working time. In other words, one can participant part time education to acquire MBA degree or just learning one more foreign language at university.

Admittedly, attaining money for daily life is still necessary in developing country. So poor is our nation that we should full our stomach before enjoying leisure time or purchase other entertainment on spirit. Consequently, one should also rationally make its choice depending on individual economic condition.

All in all, as discussed above, It is undoubted that the advantage a lower income job with much time will overweigh the benefit of a high income job with little time. Even though, as a proverb says, "Each coin has its two sides." One people should consider about his economic statue seriously, asking himself wether whether it is rational to choose lower pay job rather than opposite one. Defenitely Definitely, different people who locates at unsimiliar  dissimilar environment could have various kinds of choice.

这两天把做过的TPO重新听了一遍，感觉基本上这次95%以上的词都能听出来了。 回头再总结一下听力的笔记、答题技巧方面的问题。
每天还听写一篇SSS, 感觉确实比较难，尤其是完全不熟悉的知识。  听完SSS再听托福...

作文找老师帮忙看了下， 说是结构还比较清晰， 句型也有些变化，但是用词不够准确。

开始跟读新概念3, 练习下口语也比较重要。 现在日常说的都是简单的短句和单词， 在会议时想表述复杂的意思就有些捉襟见肘， 要赶紧练练， 一方面为考试， 一方面为工作。

哎呀， 今天做阅读一篇错了3，有些难，就是 The Geologic History of the Mediterranean 这篇， 不少选项还是蛮有迷惑性的。
听力错了7个， 感觉很无奈， 明明都听懂了， 结果在一些细节题上把握不住， 还是不够了解出题思路？
