Although actual readings of water usage before and after the adjustment are not yet available, the change will obviously result in a considerable savings for Sunnyside Corporation, since the corporation must pay for water each month.

VQVQV……欲仙欲死
V:不太记得了,有篇长阅读讲的国家的建立,具体讲的是韩国,好像这篇机经里有过,两种观点,文章里有句话说韩语“国家”这个词是最近这些年才从日本来的什么的balabala(这里有题问这句话的含义,大概就是韩国对国家的概念不是自古就有的,不太记得了sorry),有细节题问韩国年轻一代对国家这个概念的认识。
还有篇长阅读关于火星和地球的某块区域的形成原因的比较,提出了三种不同的观点(主题题)
有篇讲文艺复兴时期的teacher将古罗马时期的诗歌通过某种筛选方法节选后再教给学生。so现代的研究古罗马文学的人没法理解文艺复兴时期的那些学生的文章。
填空我真的记不起来TT
