刚刚考完,趁着记忆还清晰,把题目贴上来和大家分享一下。我今天是QVQVQ
issue
In order to become well-rounded individuals, all college students should be required to take courses in which they read poetry, novels, mythology, and other types of imaginative literature.
arguement
The following appeared in a memo from the president of Bower Builders, a company that constructs new homes.
"A nationwide survey reveals that the two most-desired home features are a large family room and a large, well-appointed kitchen. A number of homes in our area built by our competitor Domus Construction have such features and have sold much faster and at significantly higher prices than the national average. To boost sales and profits, we should increase the size of the family rooms and kitchens in all the homes we build and should make state-of-the-art kitchens a standard feature. Moreover, our larger family rooms and kitchens can come at the expense of the dining room, since many of our recent buyers say they do not need a separate dining room for family meals."
Verbal
记得的题不多了,大概写写:
the modern people think the ....of the author is vapid, even in 17 century people think it is similarly___
A. jejune (应该选这个吧) B didactic C dogmatic D 忘了 E arcane
有一道题有关bioengineeing 的,我理解的是在讲说科学家援引某报纸,来指出bioengineering不能解决environmental problems, 只是___政治目的的,而环境问题不可能仅仅依靠bioengineering就能解决。
阅读感觉没碰到什么机经的原题,不知道是不是我没看到,还是没注意到。
有一篇是讲什么 predominant parties(主要的两个竞争党派) 的研究的,老观点是说只是注意对主要政党的研究和夸奖,新观点是应该加入其他非主要政党对政治发展的作用,例如有第三党派会注意到一些主要党派注意不到的问题什么的,另外还有人提出应注意到一些各种社会政治活动例如女权主义活动等对政治的影响。题目问道作者最不同意以下哪个观点,还有作者认为对老观点的研究怎么样?
逻辑题有一道是说农民通常会把某种害虫的数量控制在很低范围内,但是偶尔这些害虫也还是会突然大量爆发,研究人员认为这是由于冬天经过了一段unusually low temperature,使得害虫的predator死掉了,这样到了夏天就没有捕食者来吃这种害虫,它们的数量就爆发了。题目问那个能够增强这个观点。我只记得选项有一个是如果给这些昆虫和他们的predator都施加对他们都有效的农药,一段时间之后洗去农药之后,害虫的数量会大量爆发。 另外好像有一个选项是predator能够活过漫长的很冷的冬天。
实在是记不太清了,囧。。。。
感觉第一个section的填空好简单,第二个的好难,有些词不认识。不过阅读就没什么太大感觉了!
adj. 富于想象力的
