上午刚考完。V660，Q800。VQV。第二个V全部是新题型。

1 先上机经

作文
197. "The material progress and well-being of one country are necessarily connected to the material progress and well-being of all other countries."
48. "The study of history places too much emphasis on individuals. The most significant events and trends in history were made possible not by the famous few, but by groups of people whose identities have long been forgotten."

48.The following appeared in a newspaper article published in the country of Corpora.
"Twenty years ago, one half of all citizens in Corpora met the standards for adequate physical fitness as then defined by the national advisory board on physical fitness. Today, the board says that only one quarter of all citizens are adequately fit and suggests that spending too much time using computers may be the reason. But since overall fitness levels are highest in regions of Corpora where levels of computer ownership are also highest, it is clear that using computers has not made citizens less physically fit. Instead, as shown by this year's unusually low expenditures on fitness-related products and services, the recent decline in the economy is most likely the cause, and fitness levels will improve when the economy does."

第一个V遇到以前的JJ题不多，唯一一个有印象的就是jaded 。V现在能想到的有如下一些
类反：
Gibberish：？？：：这个是第一题，gibberish很怪从来没见过，只好猜，不知道猜对了没。
Jaded<>
circumlocutory <> straightforward
hedonism <> 和这个词样子很像的一个词，是不是这个记不清了
  ---->及其有可能是heinous<>
Perspicacious <>
Odius:disgust::menacing:fear (PP3里边的一题)

句子填空：开始的2个题感觉以前做过。其中一题是讲电视节目和评论的关系怎么怎么样，有一个词是mediocre，要是哪位能找到原题帮忙贴一下。

数学最后一个题，给了一张表，是56个学生的分数分布。60-70有6个人，等等。告诉了最高分是96，比较学生分数的range和38的关系。回来查知道，range定义是最大值与最小值的差，所以答案是38大。

其他现在实在是回忆不起来了，等想起来再补充。

2 考场
新加坡的考场好差。CRT的显示器，看惯了液晶显示器，再看CRT感觉在闪。考场应该有16个考位，因为我是16号，在最里边的角落里。空调不冷，做到最后感觉有点热。

3 备考
说一下我的备考过程。本人在上班，主要是晚上和周末在看书。其实工作也在偷懒，有时能偷偷看看作文，对不起老板了。不过要是老板好，我也不会考G了。从3月9号拿到红宝书，到今天考完，一共准备了6个月。7月回家休息了一段时间，从我的女朋友Cathy那里拿到了全部的复习材料。7月之前是背单词，休息之后是背单词加做题。到昨天为止，感觉蓝宝书能背下来80%。真题做了3本大白本，一本句子填空，还有PP3的两套题做了3遍。作文I写了20篇，A写了30篇。做真题的时候感觉时好时差，NO题每套2个V一般会错25个左右，90以后的国内题有三分之二可以错20个以内。PP3的2套模考题，第一套错了9个，670，第二套错了8个560，真是不知道ets搞的什么鬼。

其实今天做V的感觉很差，很紧张。因为第一个题gibberish就不认识，只能猜。第8题就是长阅读，阅读一直是我的弱项，花了很多时间。以后又有很多题都拿不准。紧张不说，时间也不够用。最后倒数第三个题是填空，看了半天选不出来，剩了40多秒时乱选了一个，然后把最后2题做完。另外想说的就是看韩网JJ，很多都是700+，真不知道他们是怎么考出来的。

4 感谢
感谢Cathy对我的无私帮助。如果没有她，我的GT之路不会走的这么坚决。希望接下来能有更好的结果。
