"Technologies not only influence but actually determine social customs and ethics."

"It is impossible for an effective political leader to tell the truth all the time. Complete honesty is not a useful virtue for a politician."

ARGUMENT 202
Humans arrived in the Kaliko Islands about 7,000 years ago, and within 3,000 years most of the large mammal species that had lived in the forests of the Kaliko Islands had become extinct. Yet humans cannot have been a factor in the species' extinctions, because there is no evidence that the humans had any significant contact with the mammals. Further, archaeologists have discovered numerous sites where the bones of fish had been discarded, but they found no such areas containing the bones of large mammals, so the humans cannot have hunted the mammals. Therefore, some climate change or other environmental factor must have caused the species' extinctions.

"We can usually learn much more from people whose views we share than from people whose views contradict our own; disagreement can cause stress and inhibit learning."
还有一个实在是找不出来了。

Argument159
The nation of Claria covers a vast physical area. But despite wide geographic differences, many citizens are experiencing rising costs of electricity. A recent study of household electric costs in Claria found that families who cooled their houses with fans alone spent more on electricity than did families using air conditioners alone for cooling. However, those households that reported using both fans and air conditioners spent less on electricity than those households that used either fans or air conditioners alone. Thus, the citizens of Claria should follow the study's recommendation and use both air conditioners and fans in order to save money on electricity.

issue:
210"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."
221"The chief benefit of the study of history is to break down the illusion that people in one period of time are significantly different from people who lived at any other time in history."

argument:
158The 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.

ISSUE 64 Many people know how to attain success，but few know how to make the best use of it，另外一个不记得了，这个也不是很高频，第50道，但是感觉相对那个好写点
Argue 15，.The following appeared in a newsletter offering advice to investors.

"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."
以前写过提纲，也不是很难，但是发挥还是不太好，文章写完了，但感觉不是太有力。
抽得2篇都不算高频。希望会有好结果。

我来报4.18机经：

ISSUE144 广州机经高频第三题
"Artists should pay little attention to their critics.* Criticism tends to undermine and constrain the artist's creativity."*those who evaluate works of art, such as novels, films, music, paintings, etc.
由于见着第一个太激动就没看第二个题目

ARGUMENT241广州高频前50
The following appeared in a memo at the XYZ company. “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."

庆幸人品还不错，我是按太傻抽高频方法做的，不知是不是巧合。不幸的是准备不太充分又太紧张，看到前面全部的英文反应不过来都快懵了，全程脑子空白，还好ISSUE这篇写过根据印象回忆着写的，但急于抽ARGUMENT高频过早进入了，一时进入不了状态耽误了时间，没太写完555

广州很美，广外也很美，大家要吸取我的教训，早早限时；真正的考试内容很熟悉，老师也很好，所以对像我这样心理素质弱些的童鞋要做尽量充分的心理准备，其实前面的看不懂不会有任何影响，只要不错过选笔试地点，不要慌张把考试的内容写好就万事大吉了！祝后面的同学们好好享受广外之行，取得好成绩~~~

issue147："Tradition and modernization are incompatible. One must choose between them."       
issue41："Such nonmainstream areas of inquiry as astrology, fortune-telling, and psychic and paranormal pursuits play a vital role in society by satisfying human needs that are not addressed by mainstream science."
Argue35：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."

issue147我写过，argue35看过。
同行的一个mm抽到issue是136"The absence of choice is a circumstance that is very, very rare."我表示很想写这题！！！

另外说一下，广外考场的键盘“Enter键“不是那种大的，而是比较小的那种，还不太习惯。
