"When research priorities are being set for science, education,
or any other area, the most important question to consider is:
How many people's lives will be improved if the results are successful "

I 105
"It is through the use of logic and of precise, careful measurement that
we become aware of our progress.
Without such tools, we have no reference points to indicate how far
we have advanced or retreated."


A 183
The Department of Education in the state of Attra recommends
that high school students be assigned homework every day.
Yet a recent statewide survey of high school math and science
teachers calls the usefulness of daily homework into question.
In the district of Sanlee, 86 percent of the teachers reported
assigning homework three to five times a week, whereas in the
district of Marlee, less than 25 percent of the teachers reported
assigning homework three to five times a week. Yet the students
in Marlee earn better grades overall and are less likely to be
required to repeat a year of school than are the students in Sanlee.
Therefore, all teachers in our high schools should assign homework
no more than twice a week, if at all.

 208 'The following appeared in a memorandum from the president of Hyper-Go Toy
     Company. "Last year, sales of our Fierce Fighter toy airplane declined
     sharply, even though the toy had been a top seller for three years. Our
     customer surveys show that parents are now more worried about youthful
     violence and are concerned about better education for their children.
     Therefore, to maintain profits we should discontinue all our action toys and
     focus exclusively on a new line of educational toys. Several other toy
     companies have already begun marketing educational toys and report sales
     increases last year of 200 percent. And since the average family income is
     growing, sales of new Hyper-Go toys should also increase."

88'The following appeared in a memo from the director of a large group of
hospitals. "In a laboratory study of liquid antibacterial hand soaps, a
concentrated solution of Nadasept killed 40 percent more bacteria than the
liquid hand soaps currently used in our hospitals. During a subsequent test
of Nadasept at our hospital in Saluda, that hospital reported significantly
fewer cases of patient infection than did any of the other hospitals in our
group. Therefore, to prevent serious patient infections, we should supply
Nadasept at all hand washing stations throughout our hospital system."

ARGUEMENT

197
'It is known that in recent years, industrial pollution has caused the
Earth's ozone layer to thin, allowing an increase in the amount of
ultraviolet radiation that reaches the Earth's surface. At the same time,
scientists have discovered, the population of a species of salamander
that lays its eggs in mountain lakes has declined. Since ultraviolet
radiation is known to be damaging to delicate tissues and since salamander
eggs have no protective shells, it must be the case that the increase in
ultraviolet radiation has damaged many salamander eggs and prevented them
from hatching. This process will no doubt cause population declines in
other species, just as it has in the salamander species.


'近年來工業污染導致地球臭氧層越來越薄，使得越來越多紫外線幅射傳送到地球
表面。同時，科學家發現，蠑螈，一種將蛋產在山上湖泊的動物，其數量出現下滑。
由於紫外線幅射有害於 纖細的 組織，加上蠑螈的蛋並無外殼保護，所以應該是紫外線
幅射的增加，傷害了許多蠑螈的蛋，進而影響其孵化。紫外線幅射的增加無疑的將導致
其他物種數量減少，如同其對蠑螈之影響 。



都不是高頻題喔...

arguement

144. The following is a letter to the head of tourism bureau on the island of
     Tria. "Erosin of beach sand along the shores of Tria Island is a serious
     threat to our island and our tourist industry. In order to stop the
     erosion, we should charge people for using the beaches. Although this
     solution may annoy a few tourists in the short term,it will reduce
    the number of people using the beaches and will raise money for
     replenishing the sand. Replenishing the sand, as was done to protect
     buildings on the nearby island of Batia, will help protect buildings
      along our shores, thereby reducing these buildings' risk of addition
     damage from severe storms. And since the areas along the shore will
      be more attractive as a result, the beaches will be preserved and the
      area's tourist industry will improve over the long term."

加油!

issue:

At various times in the geological past, many species have become extinct as
a result of natural,
rather than human, processes. Thus, there is no justification for society to
make extraordinary
efforts, especially at a great cost in money and jobs, to save endangered
species.

argument:

Recently we signed a contract with The Fly-Away Pest-Control Company to
provide pest-control
services at our fast-food warehouse in Palm City, but last month we
discovered that over $20,000
worth of food there had been destroyed by pest damage. Meanwhile, the Buzzoff
Pest-Control
Company, which we have used for many years, continued to service our
warehouse in Wintervale,
and last month only $10,000 worth of the food stored there had been destroyed
by pest damage.
Even though the price charged by Fly-Away is considerably lower, our best
means of saving
money is to return to Buzzoff Company for all our pest-control services.

180"As long as people in a society are hungry or out of work or lack the
basic skills needed to survive, the use of public resources to support the
arts is inappropriate-- and, perhaps, even cruel -- when one considers all
the potential uses of such money

19"Public figures such as actors, politicians, and athletes should expect
people to be interested in their private lives. When they seek a public role,
they should expect that they will lose at least some of their privacy."


ARGUMENT

'The following is a letter to the editor of the Roseville Gazette. "Despite
opposition from some residents of West Roseville, the arguments in favor of
merging the townships of Roseville and West Roseville are overwhelming.
First, residents in both townships are confused about which authority to
contact when they need a service; for example, the police department in
Roseville receives many calls from residents of West Roseville. This sort of
confusion would be eliminated with the merger. Second, the savings in
administrative costs would be enormous, since services would no longer be
duplicated: we would have only one fire chief, one tax department, one mayor,
and so on. And no jobs in city government would be lost—employees could
simply be reassigned. Most importantly, the merger will undoubtedly attract
business investments as it did when the townships of Hamden and North Hamden
merged ten years ago."

ARGUMENT
'The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of marketing at
Dura-Sock, Inc. "A recent study of Dura-Sock wearers suggests that our
company is wasting the money it spends on its patented "Endure" manufacturing
process, which ensures that our socks are strong enough to last for two
years. Dura-Sock has always advertised its use of the "Endure" process, but
the new study shows that the average Dura-Sock customer actually purchases
new Dura-Socks every three months. Furthermore, Dura-Sock customers surveyed
in our largest market, northeastern United States cities, say that they most
value Dura-Sock's stylish appearance and availability in many colors. These
findings suggest that Dura-Sock can increase its profits by discontinuing its
use of the "Endure" manufacturing process."

41"Education will be truly effective only when it is specifically designed
   to meet the individual needs and interests of each student."

另一題忘了，抱歉

Argument

43'Thirteen years ago, researchers studied a group of 25 infants who showed
   signs of mild distress when exposed to unfamiliar stimuli such as an
   unusual odor or a tape recording of an unknown voice. They discovered
   that these infants were more likely than other infants to have been
   conceived in early autumn, a time when their mothers' production of
   melatonin—a hormone known to affect some brain functions—would naturayll
   increase in response to decreased daylight. In a follow-up study
   conducted earlier this year, more than half of these children—now
   teenagers who had shown signs of distress identified themselves as shy.
   Clearly, increased levels of melatonin before birth cause shyness
   during infancy and this shyness continues into later life.


 感覺上，Argument的題目會跟問卷的填寫"之前的major"或"希望未來要念的領域"
 有關，大家還是花一點時間填問卷吧 :P

 加油！！
