屁屁豆的成长日记：做一个勇敢努力的阳光美少女【脚踏实地，坚信努力就会有好运！】

According to a theory advanced by researcher Paul Martin, the wave of species extinctions that occurredin North America about 11,000 years ago, at the end of the Pleistocene era, can be directly attributed to the arrival of humans, i.e., the Paleoindians, who were ancestors of modern Native Americans. However, anthropologist Shepard Krech points out that large animal species vanished even in areas where there is no evidence to demonstrate that Paleoindians hunted them. Nor were extinctions confined to large animals: small animals, plants, and insects disappeared, presumably not all through human consumption. Krech also contradicts Martin's exclusion of climatic change as an explanation by asserting that widespread climatic change did indeed occur at the end of the Pleistocene. Still, Krech attributes secondary if not primary responsibility for the extinctions to the Paleoindians, arguing that humans have produced local extinctions elsewhere---这个人认为人类活动是间接作用. But, according to historian Richard White, even the attribution of secondary responsibility may not be supported by the evidence. White observes that Martin's thesis depends on coinciding dates for the arrival of humans and the decline of large animal species, and Krech, though aware that the dates are controversial, does not challenge them; yet recent archaeological discoveries are providing evidence that the date of human arrival was much earlier than 11,000 years ago.
这篇全对。貌似是上个月机经里的一道题呢，看着眼熟。
就是讲物种灭亡和人类活动的关系的。
文章脉络比较清晰，先提了一个人的结论，又提了一个人的结论来反驳前一个人，最后第三个的结论question了前两个人的。

In American Genesis, which covers the century of technological innovation in the United States beginning in 1876,Thomas Hughes assigns special promi- nence to Thomas Edison as archetype of the independent nineteenth-century inventor. However, Hughes virtually ignores Edison's famous contemporary and notorious adversary in the field of electric light and power, George Westinghouse. This comparative neglect of Westinghouse is consistent with other recent historians' works, although it marks an intriguing这里应该理解为unusual departure from the prevailing view during the inventors' lifetimes (and for decades afterward) of Edison and Westinghouse as the two "pioneer innovators" of the electrical industry.

My recent reevaluation of Westinghouse, facilitated by materials found in railroad archives, suggests that while Westinghouse and Edison shared important traits as inventors, they differed markedly in their approach to the business aspects of innovation. For Edison as an inventor, novelty was always paramount: the overriding goal of the business of innovation was simply to generate funding for new inventions. Edison therefore undertook just enough sales, product development, and manufacturing to accomplish this. Westinghouse, however, shared the attitudes of the railroads and other industries for whom he developed innovations: product development, standardization, system, and order were top priorities. Westinghouse thus better exemplifies the systematic approach to technological development that would become a hallmark of modern corporate research and development.

The author of the passage implies that the shift---departure away from the views of Westinghouse's contemporaries---指的就是prevailing view should be regarded as                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
A a natural outgrowth of the recent revival of interest in Edison
B a result of scholarship based on previously unknown documents
C reflective of modern neglect of the views of previous generations
D inevitable, given the changing trends in historical interpretations
E surprising, given the stature that Westinghouse once had
正确答案 E  
你的答案A ---找错定位了= =。。。读完一遍想当然地觉得第二段是作者主要观点。忘记了第一段也有作者的观点，硕大一个however放在那被我忽略了。再者这个问题有点绕
contemporary n.同代人，同辈人（精分了，这个词居然反应不过来。）
文章结构不难。不过这道错题卡了N多时间，结果还是选错了。

屁豆BF今天考完研，明天来找屁豆，预计是荒废的一天，╭(╯^╰)╮先长叹一口气……
今天把bible刷完了，感觉和Ron的PPT覆盖得差不多，不过有一明显的收获就是，我终于知道三大family是啥了，高大上！
原来逻辑是可以分成MUST BE TRUE，HELP，HURT三大类的，这样的划分清晰了许多
逻辑链没有推完，打算趁明天某人没来之前再多刷一点，明天结束掉。
单词的任务还是要每天坚持啊啊啊，话说一天3个list压得我喘不过气来= =！可以改计划吗我？答：不能！
作息时间还是不规律：要尽力调整。
然后就是，要注意RC的跟进，虽然弥补CR的短板是重中之重，但是RC也不能丢。
最后的最后：屁豆的爸爸今天生病了，屁豆很心疼。看见爸妈为自己努力赚学费觉得心酸，不忍辜负，希望爸爸快点好起来。
