What have I learned from others?

People come to our life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. They bring us happiness, sorrow, wisdom and anything else, we should be grateful. It's them who make our life rich and meaningful. As time elapses, the better we get along with others, the more we learn from them.There is always someone kind enough to make friends with. So when we open our hearts to them, we will win their true hearts. Our parents teach us right from wrong, so do our friends. Perhaps they are far away and not by our side, anyway, they often give us encourage to face up to everything, no matter how difficult it seems to be. That's why we can hold on all the time. Someone may bring you sorrow, it's really hard to accept at first, however, time is the best cure. When you look back, you will find all worth to experience.

So come on, my would-be heroes, let's fight together and unite! All of us will be real heroes!

First, summarize what I have done till now:
12.19 决定考GRE，买书买资料，开始看红宝，好厚的一本啊……
12.24 GRE报名，3.24 广州AW，终于确定了。看GTER上的G友们进度已经快了好多，心里恐慌……
12.25-1.17 红宝第一遍终于过了，每天上午2-3lists, 下午看Issue写作要领，发现Issue入门真不容易，晚上复习红宝。
1.18-1.27 结合新东方录音，开始认真准备Issue了，了解了一些写作方法，论证类型，论据来源，将题库分类翻译了一遍，大概熟悉了一些主题，官方范文、韦晓亮、北美的都在看，也看论坛的作文修改，发现了一些问题，但还没有开始认真写第一篇，也因此始终不够深入，希望能尽快写出第一篇，找到感觉。对于列提纲，看了别人的一些提纲，发现自己思路还没打开，找论据也不够新颖，求助ing……Argument题库还没看，范文看了，也看了北美上的几篇逻辑错误举例，还没自己动手写。。。。。。红宝在继续，结合新东方背单词软件，逆序才刚刚开始，难句还没看，阅读也只看了一点模拟题，其他都没怎么看。发现时间很不够用，要是一天有36小时就好了……

记录一下这两天所学：
开始看Argument题库，对于那几类逻辑错误有一点了解，但还不是太懂怎么攻击；
Issue列了一些比较详细的高频提纲，还没动手写，有点着急了；
红宝在过第二遍；
发现看Economist对词汇掌握很有帮助，可能没有太认真分析结构，对于论证的思路还没什么感觉；
得加油了。

开学好几天了，跟老板说了考试的事，于是实验终于可以暂时停一下了。还有最后三周就要上考场了，最后三周，一定得克服之前的漫不经心，全身心投入GRE了。
这几天开始限时写I写A，一开始字数不够，而且思路打不开，虽然写到第四次了，但进步不明显，发现之前不限时写的作文太少了，修改也不多，许多问题还没有完全克服，而且语言表达始终是个很大的问题，即使对破题有点感觉了，写出来多半还是平衡观点，自己都觉得没什么新意，例子的表述也不准确，看到同主题写作其他版友的文章，发现自己写作词汇太少，而且表达方面总是不能切中要害，需要提高的太多了。后期素材的积累还是个大问题。
看了Imong的分类Issue讨论，还是有点收获的，在审题上可能比以前把握大了一点点，自己的分类提纲还在继续；高频提纲还没写到前100，后期要认真写，至少前80。
过A的题库还是很勤奋的，找错误有点感觉，只是还得深入，不能停留在表面的错误类型，精华版里的总结很好哇。全文的问题自己觉得是语言表述不够好，不够深入，攻击的主次还得进一步分清。另外对于A模板的准备还没完成，A的分类题目要挑着写，一些难题也要列详细提纲才行。
关于限时，现在觉得一开始还是先搜集点资料再写，在提纲的帮助下打开思路，可能比纯粹的模考状态要容易点，幸好版主也对这个问题有讨论，回头再仔细看看。争取限时写得像样点，可以和G友互改，先自己努力了，后期要加强自我监督，既然选择了，就得认真认真对待，就像一句话说的，如果值得做，就值得做好。。。
广州潮热的天气真让人受不了。。。抽空要去看看广外的考场，毕竟八点半就开始了呀。

ISSUE 144 It is the artist, not the critic,* who gives society something of lasting value." *a person who evaluates works of art, such as novels, films, music, paintings, etc.
ARGUMENT 10 The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a Batavia
newspaper.

"The department of agriculture in Batavia reports that the number of dairy farms throughout the country is now 25 percent greater than it was 10 years ago. During this same time period, however, the price of milk at the local Excello Food Market has increased from $1.50 to over $3.00 per gallon. To prevent farmers from continuing to receive excessive profits on an apparently increased supply of milk, the Batavia government should begin to regulate retail milk prices. Such regulation is necessary to ensure both lower prices and an adequate supply of milk for consumers."


今天终于考了，五点多起床打车去广外，然后等到8点开始进场，流程就如版主说的那样完全一样，不过一开始在熟悉操作和填写调查问卷时用了不少时间，好心的监考老师都来提醒我了，心理真是紧张啊。作文IA都抽到高频，不过自我感觉写得不太好，I的写过没有互改，A的考前没有按高频复习，写的时候挺忐忑的。不过从2.22回校到现在，天天图书馆10几个小时对着电脑的日子终于可以BYEBYE了，接下来要准备毕业论文答辩跟笔试，应该会更忙，不过我相信这一路走来的人，都是已经做好选择的了，既然选择了，就得自己负责，所以，不管今后有多艰难，我都会继续走下去，尽力做好，也许只有这样才会无愧于心吧。谢谢朋友们，谢谢GTER这个大家园。
