Twelve years ago and again five years ago, there were extended periods when the Darfir Republic's currency, the pundra, was weak: its value was unusually low relative to the world's most stable currencies. Both times a weak pundra made Darfir's manufactured products a bargain on world markets, and Darfir's exports were up substantially. Now some politicians are saying that, in order to cause another similarly sized increase in exports, the government should allow the pundra to become weak again.
Which of the following, if true, provides the government with the strongest grounds to doubt that the politicians' recommendation, if followed, will achieve its aim?

Q2问以下那个和RED BOOK 和green list的关系最像。。。我选了一个很狭隘，另外一个很宽泛。。。大概是这个意思。。。
Q3。好像是问Red Book哪儿不好。。。我选了limit range好像。。。
第三篇：
第一段：FTDA（好像是这样。。。Federal的一个组织还是条例）对trademark 的规定。。。说它allowed 什么什么，规定了什么什么。。。。然后under the provision，trademark能干啥干啥的、、、（这里出了个题，问这两句话之间是啥关系。忘了选哪个。。。逻辑的boldface题挺像的）
第二段：忘了。。。
第四篇：讲一种音乐形式bebop为啥不能吸引观众了？忘记了。。。这会儿考试已经快结束了没仔细看。。以前练托福听写的时候用的PBT的听力，有一篇讲bebop的，当做背景知识给大家粘上来吧。。。不是考古啊！！！ Ok, so in our last class we were discussing big bands swing music. You remember, this was a kind of dance music with a steady rhythm. But today we deal with that sort of music played by smaller jazz bands. It's called bebop. Now bebop makes use all sorts of new types of rhythms, some of them very irregular. We will talk more about that later. But first I wanna talk about some of the social elements that I believe contributed to the development of bebop music. To do this, we have to look at when bebop arose and started becoming so popular which was from the late 1930s through the 1940s from the time of the Great Depression right into the 2nd World War. Now one factor that certainly helped create the environment for bebop music was the decline of the United States economy. During the Great Depression, the economy suffered tremendously, and fewer people had money to spend on entertainment. Then during the 2nd World War, the government imposed a new tax on public entertainment, what you might call (it) performance tax. The government collected money on performances that included any types of acting, dancing or singing, but not instrumental music. So to avoid this new tax, some jazz bands stop using singers altogether. They started relying on the creativity of the instrumentalist to attract audiences. This was what bebop bands did. Now remember a lot of big bands had singers. So the instrumentalists simply played in the background and had occasional solos while the singers sang the melody to the songs, but not bebop bands. So the instrumentalists had much more freedom to be creative. So they experimented playing the music faster and using new irregular sorts of rhythms.
逻辑考了这个原题： Twelve years ago and again five years ago, there were extended periods when the Darfir Republic's currency, the pundra, was weak: its value was unusually low relative to the world's most stable currencies. Both times a weak pundra made Darfir's manufactured products a bargain on world markets, and Darfir's exports were up substantially. Now some politicians are saying that, in order to cause another similarly sized increase in exports, the government should allow the pundra to become weak again. Which of the following, if true, provides the government with the strongest grounds to doubt that the politicians' recommendation, if followed, will achieve its aim?
(A) Several of the politicians now recommending that the pundra be allowed to become weak made that same recommendation before each of the last two periods of currency weakness.
(B) After several decades of operating well below peak capacity, Darfir's manufacturing sector is now operating at near-peak levels.
(C) The economy of a country experiencing a rise in exports will become healthier only if the country's currency is strong or the rise in exports is significant.
(D) Those countries whose manufactured products compete with Darfir's on the world market all currently have stable currencies.
(E) A sharp improvement in the efficiency of Darfir's manufacturing plants would make Darfir's products a bargain on world markets even without any weakening of the pundra relative to other currencies.
