Issue 185 Some educational systems emphasize the development of students' capacity for reasoning and logical thinking, but students would benefit more from an education that also taught them to explore their own emotions. 121 The study of history places too much emphasis on individuals. The most significant events and trends in history were made possible not by the famous few, but by groups of people whose identities have long been forgotten. Argument 218 The following appeared in an editorial in the Mason City newspaper. "At present, Mason City residents seldom use the nearby Mason River for any kind of recreational activity, even though surveys of the region's residents consistently rank water sports (swimming, fishing, and boating) as a favorite form of recreation. Since there have been complaints about the quality of the water in the river, residents must be avoiding the river because they think that it is not clean enough. But that situation is about to change: the agency responsible for rivers in our region has announced plans to clean up Mason River. Therefore, recreational use of the river is likely to increase, so the Mason City council will need to increase its budget for improvements to the publicly owned lands along the Mason River." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.167.98.112 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: jkgh (:)) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/5 AWA 台大 10:30 時間: Thu May 6 19:31:52 2010 (代po) Issue "How children are socialized today determines the destiny of society. Unfortunately, we have not yet learned how to raise children who can help bring about a better society." Argument "The Trash-Site Safety Council has recently conducted a statewide study of possible harmful effects of garbage sites on the health of people living near the sites. A total of five sites and 300 people were examined. The study revealed, on average, only a small statistical correlation between the proximity of homes to garbage sites and the incidence of unexplained rashes among people living in these homes. Furthermore, although it is true that people living near the largest trash sites had a slightly higher incidence of the rashes, there was otherwise no correlation between the size of the garbage sites and people's health. Therefore, the council is pleased to announce that the current system of garbage sites does not pose a significant health hazard. We see no need to restrict the size of such sites in our state or to place any restrictions on the number of homes built near the sites." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.113.254.68

"Because the demand for our automobiles is expected to increase dramatically, we need to open a new manufacturing plant as soon as possible in order to continue to thrive. Our marketing projections indicate that 80 million people will want to buy our automobiles, yet our existing plant can only produce 40 million automobiles. The new plant can be opened on a part-time basis, with workers from our existing site rotating responsibilities, until an operational staff can be trained. A major airplane manufacturer was extremely successful using this part-time rotating strategy when it opened its new plant five years ago." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.4.183

"The population of Balmer Island increases to 100,000 duing the summer months. To reduce the number of accidents involving mopeds and pedestrians, the town council of Balmer Island should limit the number of mopeds rented by each of the island's six moped and bicycle rental companies from 50 per day to 30 per day during the summer season. By limiting the number of rentals, the town council is sure to attain the 50 percent reduction in moped accidents that was achieved last year in the neighboring island of Torseau, when Torseau's town council enforced similar limits on moped rentals." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.168.2.231 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: negotiator (吻仔小胖賢...) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/5 台大 AWA 12:30 時間: Wed May 5 17:29:15 2010 Issue 225 "Students should bring a certain skepticism to whatever they study.

Argument 92 The following appeared in a memo from the mayor of the town of West Egg. "Two years ago, our consultants predicted that West Egg's landfill, which is used for garbage disposal, would be completely filled within five years. During the past two years, however, town residents have been recycling twice as much aluminum and paper as they did in previous years. Next month the amount of material recycled should further increase, since charges for garbage pickup will double. Furthermore, over ninety percent of the respondents to a recent survey said that they would do more recycling in the future. Because of our residents' strong commitment to recycling, the available space in our landfill should last for considerably longer than predicted." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.52.134 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: yaeve (aeve) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/5 台大 AWA 時間: Wed May 12 10:49:53 2010 ISSUE No.39 Most people choose a career on the basis of such pragmatic considerations as the needs of the economy, the relative ease of finding a job, and the salary they can expect to make.

Argument: (231) The following is a letter to the editor of an environmental magazine. "The decline in the numbers of amphibians worldwide clearly indicates the global pollution of water and air. Two studies of amphibians in YosemiteNational Park in California confirm my conclusion. In 1915 there were seven species of amphibians in the park, and there were abundant numbers of each species. However, in 1992 there were only four species of amphibians observed in the park, and the numbers of each species were drastically reduced. The decline in Yosemite has been blamed on the introduction of trout into the park's waters, which began in 1920 (trout are known to eat amphibian eggs). But the introduction of trout cannot be the real reason for the Yosemite decline because it does not explain the worldwide decline." 嗚...我寫arg沒看過沒想過這題所以慌掉了 打上螢幕的模版句子句子間都填不出字 最後胡亂謅了兩個反駁點 覺得自己練半天arg還寫得沒有只看了題目沒真練過的issue順... 超嘔... -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 125.227.140.125 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: rangi (北鼻many五金) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/5 台大 AWA 12:30 時間: Wed May 5 16:58:43 2010 Issue #1 37 "The way people look, dress, and act reveals their attitudes and interests.

Hardly anyone is free to choose a career based on his or her natural talents or interest in a particular kind of work." Argument 118 Woven baskets characterized by a particular distinctive pattern have previously been found only in the immediate vicinity of the prehistoric village of Palea and therefore were believed to have been unique to the Palean people. Recently, however, archaeologists discovered such a 'Palean' basket in Lithos, an ancient village across the BrimRiver from Palea. The BrimRiver is very deep and broad, and so the ancient Paleans could only have crossed it by boat, but there is no evidence that the Paleans had boats. And boats capable of carrying groups of people and cargo were not developed until thousands of years after the Palean people disappeared. Moreover, Paleans would have had no need to cross the river — the woods around Palea are full of nuts, berries, and small game. It follows that the so-called Palean baskets were not unique to Palea. 都是高頻題@@ -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.7.59 ※ 編輯: shuen1217 來自: 140.112.7.59 (05/05 16:21) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: aiko770403 (aiko) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/4 5/5 台大 AWA 10:30 時間: Wed May 5 14:31:51 2010 總共四人考試 5/4 Issue 101 "Students should memorize facts only after they have studied the ideas, trends, and concepts that help explain those facts. Students who have learned only facts have learned very little." Argument 126 The following appeared as an editorial in a wildlife journal. "Arctic deer live on islands in Canada's arctic region. They search for food by moving over ice from island to island during the course of a year. Their habitat is limited to areas warm enough to sustain the plants on which they feed, and cold enough, at least some of the year, for the ice to cover the sea separating the islands, allowing the deer to travel over it. Unfortunately, according to reports from local hunters, the deer populations are declining. Since these reports coincide with recent global warming trends that have caused the sea ice to melt, we can conclude that the decline in arctic deer populations is the result of deer being unable to follow their age-old migration patterns across the frozen sea." ----- 5/5 Issue 124 "Education will be truly effective only when it is specifically designed to meet the individual needs and interests of each student." Argument 119 The following memo appeared in the newsletter of the West Meria Public Health Council. "An innovative treatment has come to our attention that promises to significantly reduce absenteeism in our schools and workplaces. A study reports that in nearby East Meria, where fish consumption is very high, people visit the doctor only once or twice per year for the treatment of colds. Clearly, eating a substantial amount of fish can prevent colds. Since colds are the reason most frequently given for absences from school and work, we recommend the daily use of Ichthaid, a nutritional supplement derived from fish oil, as a good way to prevent colds and lower absenteeism." --- Issue 86 "Many of the world's lesser-known languages are being lost as fewer and fewer people speak them. The governments of countries in which these languages are spoken should act to prevent such languages from becoming extinct." 84 "All nations should help support the development of a global university designed to engage students in the process of solving the world's most persistent social problems." Argument 178 The following appeared in a memo from the manager of television station KICK. "A nationwide survey reveals that a sizeable majority of men would like to see additional sports programs on television. After television station WACK increased its sports broadcasts, its share of the television audience in its viewing area almost doubled. To gain a larger audience share in our area, and thus increase company profits, KICK should also revise its broadcast schedule to include more sports coverage." --- Issue 134 "High-profile awards such as the Nobel Prize are actually damaging to society because they suggest that only a few people deserve such recognition." Argument 65 The following appeared as part of a memo from the manager of an automobile manufacturing company.

"The well-being of a society is enhanced when many of its people question authority." Argumant 138. The following appeared in a newsletter on nutrition and health. "Although the multimineral Zorba pill was designed as a simple dietary supplement, a study of first-time ulcer patients who took Zorba suggests that Zorba actually helps prevent ulcers. The study showed that only 25 percent of those ulcer patients who took Zorba under a doctor's direction developed new ulcers, compared to a 75 percent recurrence rate among ulcer patients who did not take Zorba. Clearly, then, Zorba will be highly effective in preventing recurrent ulcers and if health experts inform the general public of this fact, many first-time ulcers can be prevented as well." -------------- 真的非常感謝GRE版上的大家,尤其是版主和xination,謝謝! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.217.204 ※ 編輯: littledong 來自: 140.112.217.204 (05/05 11:50)
