9/16 AWA@NTU LTTC
Issue 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."
另一題忘記了，實在抱歉... orz
Argument 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."

1. ISSUE
ptt題號:90
There two types of laws:just and unjust. Every individual in a society
has reponsibility to obey just laws and, even more important, , to disobey
and resist unjust laws."
ptt題號:124
"Education will be truly effective only when it is specifically designed
to meet the individual needs and interests of each student."
頻率都還不錯,我選第二題寫
2.Argument
ptt題號: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."
這題當初因為頻率不太高,所以沒仔細看,寫起來有點抖,
沒有寫到using this part-time rotating strategy, 不知影響大不大就是了
ps:題外話,有沒有人在教室外走廊上等的時候被蚊子狂叮的經驗,左手肘一開始被叮,
一沒注意,結果又被叮了好幾個包,因為很癢害我狂抓,打字時不太能專心,後來發現
是小黑蚊叮的,因為我家新竹鄉下也是這種小黑蚊,叮了包會腫很大,一般蚊子叮則沒
什麼感覺,因此要是有體質容易被蚊子叮的,建議穿個長袖或薄外套的說XD.

"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. Hardly anyone is free to choose a career based on
his or her natural talents or interest in a particular kind of work."

"Anyone can make things bigger and more complex. What requires real effort
and courage is to move in the opposite direction—in other words, to make
things as simple as possible."

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."

搶眼的紅書包晃呀晃，十七八歲的少女們花兒般恣意綻放，向世界宣告自己的存在。
兇蠻地笑著，走路的姿勢一派大無畏，彷彿肩上不曾扛過世界的重擔。
但世界卻因為她這麼個單獨的個體的某些作為而停止過，而且，
曾經發生在她的向外擴展的認知裡。
這時候，她的心靈就會縮得小小的，小小的，直到凝結成緊實的圓體，
藏在某個角落開始哭泣。

issue1 #225
Students should bring a certain skepticism to whatever they study. They
should question what they are taught instead of accepting it passively.
issue2 #113
Scholars and researchers should not be concerned with whether their work
makes a contribution to the larger society. It is more important that they
pursue their individual interests, however unusual or idiosyncratic those
interests may seem.
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.
由於Argument花比較長時間準備，練習作比較多，所以一看到開頭幾個字就知道題目就馬
上下筆寫。比較擔心的是Issue幾乎只有看高頻題，進去考時還有點心虛，不過運氣不錯
兩題都在前10個高頻題中，順序還接連著。寫得很順檢查完時間有都還有剩。
真的是有拜有保佑!!
PS.考場的服務員真的很親切，我滿頭大汗走去報到(有點遲到>"<)她還主動拿濕紙巾給
我用，真感溫^^

#1 topic 203
The arts (painting, music, literature, etc.) reveal the otherwise hidden
ideas and impulses of a society.
#2 topic 55
People are mistaken when they assume that the problems they confront are
more complex and challenging than the problems faced by their predecessors.
This illusion is eventually dispelled with increased knowledge and
experience.
Argument
topic 17
The following appeared in the annual report from the president of the
National Brush Company. "In order to save money, we at the National Brush
Company have decided to pay our employees for each brush they produce
instead of for the time they spend producing brushes. We believe that this
policy will lead to the production of more and better brushes, will allow
us to reduce our staff size, and will enable the company factories to
operate for fewer hours — resulting in savings on electricity and security
costs. These changes will ensure that the best workers keep their jobs and
that the company will earn a profit in the coming year."

The following appeared as part of a letter to the editor of a local
newspaper. "During her three years in office, Governor Riedeburg has shown
herself to be a worthy leader. Since she took office, crime has decreased,
the number of jobs created per year has doubled, and the number of people
choosing to live in our state has increased. These trends are likely to
continue if she is reelected. In addition, Ms. Riedeburg has promised to take
steps to keep big companies here, thereby providing jobs for any new
residents. Anyone who looks at Ms. Riedeburg's record can tell that she is
the best-qualified candidate for governor."

#224
The following appeared as a letter to the editor of a national newspaper.
"Your recent article on corporate downsizing* in the United States is
misleading. The article gives the mistaken impression that many competent
workers who lost jobs as a result of downsizing face serious economic
hardship, often for years, before finding other suitable employment. But this
impression is contradicted by a recent report on the United States economy,
which found that since 1992 far more jobs have been created than have been
eliminated. The report also demonstrates that many of those who lost their
jobs have found new employment. Two-thirds of the newly created jobs have
been in industries that tend to pay above-average wages, and the vast
majority of these jobs are full-time." *Downsizing is the process in which
corporations deliberately reduce the number of their employees.

"In any realm of life—whether academic, social, business, or political—the
only way to succeed is to take a practical, rather than an idealistic, point
of view. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival, whereas idealistic views
tend to be superceded by simpler, more immediate options."

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. Thus it appears that Luxess is truly effective in improving the
condition of facial skin."

"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]
'The following appeared in a Letter to the Editor of the Shady Village
newspaper. "Commuters are complaining that the rush hour traffic on Blue
Highway between Shady Village and Bright City has doubled their commuting
time. Some commuters have asked that an additional traffic lane be built, but
the recent creation of such a lane on nearby Green Highway apparently
attracted more commuters, judging from the fact that rush-hour traffic jams
actually increased there this past winter. To reduce rush-hour traffic on
Blue Highway, a bicycle lane should be added instead of a traffic lane. This
approach will succeed because many citizens of Shady Village are avid
bicyclists; 75 percent of respondents to a recent questionnaire distributed
there said they would like to bicycle more hours per week than they currently
do."
