170. "The surest indicator of a great nation is not the achievements of its rulers, artists, or scientists, but the general welfare of all its people."
一个伟大国家最真实的体现不是它的统治者、艺术家或者科学家的成就，而是他所有老百姓的普通福利（幸福）。


225. "People often look for similarities, even between very different things, and even when it is unhelpful or harmful to do so. Instead, a thing should be considered on its own terms; we should avoid the tendency to compare it to something else."
人们总是在寻找相同点，即使是在非常不同的事物间也不例外，甚至有时候这样做是无用乃至有害的。实际上，我们应该具体问题具体分析；我们应该尽量避免比较的倾向。

177.The following is a letter that recently appeared in the Oak City Gazette, a local newspaper.
"Membership in Oak City's Civic Club-a club whose primary objective is to discuss local issues-should continue to be restricted to people who live in Oak City. People who work in Oak City but who live elsewhere cannot truly understand the business and politics of the city. It is important to restrict membership to city residents because only residents pay city taxes and therefore only residents understand how the money could best be used to improve the city. At any rate, restricting membership in this way is unlikely to disappoint many of the nonresidents employed in Oak City, since neighboring Elm City's Civic Club has always had an open membership policy, and only twenty-five nonresidents have joined Elm City's Club in the last ten years."
Oak City的市民俱乐部主要目的是讨论本地事务，其成员资格应该继续被限制在居住在Oak City的市民。那些在Oak City工作但在别的地方居住的人无法真正理解本城市的政治和经济。把成员资格限制在本市居民非常重要，因为只有居民付城市税因而也只有他们才知道这些钱如何使用才能促进城市发展。无论如何，以这种方式限制成员资格不太可能使很多在Oak City工作的外地人失望，因为邻近城市Elm City的市民俱乐部一直采取开放成员资格的政策，但在过去10年中只有25名外地人加入了Elm City的市民俱乐部。

看到考题的瞬间就郁闷了。
两题频率都很低。
瞎掰了一通。

Issue
【141】
Most people recognize the benefits of individuality, but the fact is that personal economic success requires conformity.
虽然大多数人都承认个人的利益，但是事实上个人的经济成功需要的是合作。

Argument
【35】
The following appeared in the summary of a study on headaches suffered by the residents of Mentia.
"Salicylates are members of the same chemical family as aspirin, a medicine used to treat headaches. Although many foods are naturally rich in salicylates, for the past several decades food-processing companies have also been adding salicylates to foods as preservatives. This rise in the commercial use of salicylates has been found to correlate with a steady decline in the average number of headaches reported by participants in our twenty-year study. Recently, food-processing companies have found that salicylates can also be used as flavor additives for foods. With this new use for salicylates, we can expect a continued steady decline in the number of headaches suffered by the average citizen of Mentia."

水杨酸酯和用来治疗头痛的药物--阿司匹林是同一类化合物。尽管很多食品天然富含水杨酸酯，过去几十年中食品加工公司仍然在食品中加入它来作为防腐剂。这种水杨酸酯在商业上的使用被发现与我们为期20年研究的参加者所报告的头痛发病的平均数量下降是相关的。最近，食品加工公司发现水杨酸酯也可以被用作食品香料。根据这种水杨酸酯的新用途，我们可以预期Mentia居民患头痛症的数量将会持续稳步下降。

8:30的,饮水思源
I   136"The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very
            rare."
     208"The way people look, dress, and act reveals their attitudes and
            interests. You can tell much about a society's ideas and values by
            observing the appearance and behavior of its people."
A      39The following appeared in a memorandum from the president of
            Humana College.
            "Last year the number of students who enrolled in long-distance
            degree programs at Omni University increased by 50%. During the same
            year, Omni showed a significant decrease from prior years in
            expenditures for dormitory and classroom space, most likely because
            instruction in the long-distance programs takes place via
            interactive video computer connections. In contrast, over the past
            three years, enrollment at Humana College has diminished and costs
            of maintaining buildings have risen. Thus, to increase enrollment
            and solve the problem of budget deficits at Humana College, we
            should initiate and actively promote long-distance degree programs
            like those at Omni."
都还算高频,感觉怎么和别人还是有点不同的.
可惜来这里发几次贴都没人帮我改.不过也满足了,祝大家好运!

"Only through mistakes can there be discovery or progress."
另外一题太长，没看~
argument15
"Over 80 percent of the respondents to a recent survey indicated a desire to reduce their intake of foods containing fats and cholesterol, and today low-fat products abound in many food stores. Since many of the food products currently marketed by Old Dairy Industries are high in fat and cholesterol, the company's sales are likely to diminish greatly and their profits will no doubt decrease. We therefore advise Old Dairy stockholders to sell their shares and other investors not to purchase stock in this company."

都是我没写过的题目，瞎编了，呵呵~顺便赞一下厦大的监考们，态度真是好啊~

argument209

The following recommendation was made by the Human Resources Manager to the board of directors of the Fancy Toy Company.

"In the last three quarters of this year, under the leadership of our president, Pat Salvo, our profits have fallen considerably. Thus, we should ask for her resignation in return for a generous severance package. In Pat's place, we should appoint Rosa Winnings. Rosa is currently president of Starlight Jewelry, a company whose profits have increased dramatically over the past several years. Although we will have to pay Rosa twice the salary that Pat has been receiving, it will be well worth it because we can soon expect our profits to increase considerably."

issue写过,argument也没什么难度,小紧张有利于发挥,很早就写完了,

不过厦大似乎每天就3,5个人考,机精其实没什么意义了.

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.

argument-240
就是XYZ公司计划改用Walsh公司而不再雇佣Delany公司的，其实是蛮好写的一道题，可惜没写好，有点混乱，感觉很糟糕~sigh……
