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. Argument 123. The following appeared in a proposal from the economic minister of the country of Paraterra. "In order to strengthen its lagging economy, last year the government of the nearby country of Bellegea began an advertising campaign to promote ecologically sound tourism (ecotourism). This year, the number of foreign visitors arriving at Bellegea's main airport doubled, and per capita income in Bellegea increased by ten percent. To provide more income for the population of Paraterra and also preserve the natural environment of our tiny country, we too should begin to promote ecotourism. To ensure that our advertising campaign is successful, we should hire the current director of Bellegea's National Tourism Office as a consultant for the campaign." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.4.183 ※ 編輯: howardkan 來自: 140.112.4.183 (05/06 12:34)

Every individual in a society has a responsibility to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey and resist unjust laws." Argument No.49 The following is a letter to the editor of a news magazine. "Clearly, the successful use of robots on missions to explore outer space in the past 20 years demonstrates that robots could be increasingly used to perform factory work more effectively, efficiently, and profitably than human factory workers. The use of robots in factories would offer several advantages. First, robots never get sick, so absenteeism would be reduced. Second, robots do not make mistakes, so factories would increase their output. Finally, the use of robots would also improve the morale of factory workers, since factory work can be so boring that many workers would be glad to shift to more interesting kinds of tasks." 運氣還不錯 都有看過!! 祝各位考生加油 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 163.22.18.90

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. "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." --- 謝謝GRE版的大家提供的資訊 高頻題真的非常有效 版主和xination 辛苦你們了 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.119.164.218

People who lack experience are free to imagine what is possible and thus can approach a task without constraints of established habits and attitudes." Argument 43 The following appeared as a letter to the editor of a farming publication. "With continuing publicity about the need for healthful diets, and with new research about the harmful effects of eating too much sugar, nationwide demand for sugar will no doubt decline. Therefore, farmers in our state should use the land on which they currently grow sugar cane to grow peanuts, a food that is rich in protein and low in sugar. Farmers in the neighboring country of Palin greatly increased their production of peanuts last year, and their total revenues from that crop were quite high." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.115.206.115 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: lilianhsiao (笠麗安) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/4 AWA 台大 16:30 時間: Wed May 5 01:23:33 2010 Issue: 208. "The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare." Sorry, I forgot the other one. Argument: 239. "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." Good luck!! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.114.219.152

Argument NO.235 The following appeared in the editorial section of a health and fitness magazine. "In a study of the effects of exercise on longevity, medical researchers tracked 500 middle-aged men over a 20-year period. The subjects represented a variety of occupations in several different parts of the country and responded to an annual survey in which they were asked: How often and how strenuously do you exercise? Of those who responded, the men who reported that they engaged in vigorous outdoor exercise nearly every day lived longer than the men who reported that they exercised mildly only once or twice a week. Given the clear link that this study establishes between longevity and exercise, doctors should not recommend moderate exercise to their patients but should instead encourage vigorous outdoor exercise on a daily basis." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.168.162.108

"The arts (painting, music, literature, etc.) reveal the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society." 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: 118.160.221.220

It is more important that they pursue their individual interests, however unusual or idiosyncratic those interests may seem." Argument 26 The following appeared as part of an article in a health magazine. "A new discovery warrants a drastic change in the diets of people living in the United States. Two scientists have recently suggested that omega-3 fatty acids (found in some fish and fish oils) play a key role in mental health. Our ancestors, who ate less saturated fat and more polyunsaturated fat, including omega-3 fatty acids, were much less likely to suffer from depression than we are today. Moreover, modern societies — such as those in Japan and Taiwan — that consume large quantities of fish report depression rates lower than that in the United States. Given this link between omega-3 fatty acids and depression, it is important for all people in the United States to increase their consumption of fish in order to prevent depression." p.s. 途中還停電,不過他有存檔,電來了就繼續寫....

"The well-being of a society is enhanced when many of its people question authority." 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 157. The following appeared as part of an article in a health and beauty magazine. "A group of volunteers participated in a study of consumer responses to the new Luxess face cream. Every morning for a month, they washed their faces with mild soap and then applied Luxess. At the end of that month, most volunteers reported a marked improvement in the way their skin looked and felt.

"When XYZ lays off employees, it pays Delany Personnel Firm to offer those employees assistance in creating resumès and developing interviewing skills, if they so desire. Laid-off employees have benefited greatly from Delany's services: last year those who used Delany found jobs much more quickly than did those who did not. Recently, it has been proposed that we use the less-expensive Walsh Personnel Firm in place of Delany. This would be a mistake because eight years ago, when XYZ was using Walsh, only half of the workers we laid off at that time found jobs within a year. Moreover, Delany is clearly superior, as evidenced by its bigger staff and larger number of branch offices. After all, last year Delany's clients took an average of six months to find jobs, whereas Walsh's clients took nine." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.166.108.211

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 . -- 中年已積欠生命太多 老年已對生命無用 年少有等待其之國度 ---奧斯卡 王爾德 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.109.55.236 ※ 編輯: gweson 來自: 140.109.55.236 (05/04 16:44) ※ 編輯: gweson 來自: 140.109.55.236 (05/04 16:44) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: chwt2788 (豪) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/4 台大 AWA 8:30 時間: Tue May 4 11:00:58 2010 Issue 3 "Laws should not be rigid or fixed.

Argument 115 Milk and dairy products are rich in vitamin D and calcium, substances essential for building and maintaining bones. Many people therefore believe that a diet rich in dairy products can help prevent osteoporosis, a disease in which the bones weaken significantly with age and that is linked to both environmental and genetic factors. But a long-term study of a large number of people has found that those who have consistently consumed dairy products throughout the years of the study have a higher rate of bone fractures than any other participants in the study. Since bone fractures are a symptom of osteoporosis, this study result shows that a diet rich in dairy products may actually increase, rather than decrease, the risk of osteoporosis. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.18.192 > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- < 作者: suzuki1207 (替身?!) 看板: GRE 標題: [回報] 5/4 台大 AWA 8:30 時間: Tue May 4 11:00:32 2010 Issue 186 "It is primarily through our identification with social groups that we define ourselves." 55 "People are mistaken when they assume that the problems they confront are more complex and challenging than the problems faced by their predecessors.
