A 57.The following appeared in a newsletter on nutrition and health.
"Although the multimineral Zorba pill was designed as a simple dietary supplement, a study of first-time ulcer patients who took Zorba suggests that Zorba actually helps prevent ulcers. The study showed that only 25 percent of those ulcer patients who took Zorba under a doctor's direction developed new ulcers, compared to a 75 percent recurrence rate among ulcer patients who did not take Zorba. Clearly, then, Zorba will be highly effective in preventing recurrent ulcers and if health experts inform the general public of this fact, many first-time ulcers can be prevented as well."

38.The following memo appeared in the newsletter of the West Meria Public Health Council.
"An innovative treatment has come to our attention that promises to significantly reduce absenteeism in our schools and workplaces. A study reports that in nearby East Meria, where fish consumption is very high, people visit the doctor only once or twice per year for the treatment of colds. Clearly, eating a substantial amount of fish can prevent colds. Since colds are the reason most frequently given for absences from school and work, we recommend the daily use of Ichthaid, a nutritional supplement derived from fish oil, as a good way to prevent colds and lower absenteeism."

A 97.The following appeared in a memo from the manager of television station KICK.
"A nationwide survey reveals that a sizeable majority of men would like to see additional sports programs on television. After television station WACK increased its sports broadcasts, its share of the television audience in its viewing area almost doubled. To gain a larger audience share in our area, and thus increase company profits, KICK should also revise its broadcast schedule to include more sports coverage."

A 11.The following appeared in a memo from the mayor of the town of West Egg.
"Two years ago, our consultants predicted that West Egg's landfill, which is used for garbage disposal, would be completely filled within five years. During the past two years, however, town residents have been recycling twice as much aluminum and paper as they did in previous years. Next month the amount of material recycled should further increase, since charges for garbage pickup will double. Furthermore, over ninety percent of the respondents to a recent survey said that they would do more recycling in the future. Because of our residents' strong commitment to recycling, the available space in our landfill should last for considerably longer than predicted."

奋斗6G  第五周作业

本周任务：1I+1A（全文），2I+5A（提纲）
              本次I为社会类；全文为I70，A162

70."In any profession—business, politics, education, government—those in power should step down after five years. The surest path to success for any enterprise is revitalization through new leadership."（全文）




159."The human mind will always be superior to machines because machines are only tools of human minds."



203. "The best way to understand the character of a society is to examine the character of the men and women that the society chooses as its heroes or its heroines."


167.A folk remedy* for insomnia, the scent in lavender flowers, has now been proved effective. In a recent study, 30 volunteers with chronic insomnia slept each night for three weeks on lavender-scented pillows in a controlled room where their sleep was monitored. During the first week, volunteers continued to take their usual sleeping medication. They slept soundly but wakened feeling tired. During the second week, the volunteers discontinued their medication. As a result, they slept less soundly than the previous week and felt even more tired. During the third week, the volunteers slept longer and more soundly than in the previous two weeks. This shows that over a short period of time lavender cures insomnia. A folk remedy is usually a plant-based form of treatment common to traditional forms of medicine, ones that developed before the advent of modern medical services and technology.


158.The 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.


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."


165.The following appeared in a business magazine.
"As a result of numerous consumer complaints of dizziness and nausea, Promofoods requested that eight million cans of tuna be returned for testing last year. Promofoods concluded that the cans did not, after all, contain chemicals that posed a health risk. This conclusion is based on the fact that the chemists from Promofoods tested samples of the recalled cans and found that, of the eight chemicals most commonly blamed for causing symptoms of dizziness and nausea, five were not found in any of the tested cans. The chemists did find that the three remaining suspected chemicals are naturally found in all other kinds of canned foods."


162.A recent study shows that people living on the continent of North America suffer 9 times more chronic fatigue and 31 times more chronic depression than do people living on the continent of Asia. Interestingly, Asians, on average, eat 20 grams of soy per day, whereas North Americans eat virtually none. It turns out that soy contains phytochemicals called isoflavones, which have been found to possess disease-preventing properties. Thus, North Americans should consider eating soy on a regular basis as a way of preventing fatigue and depression.（全文）

奋斗6G 组 最新计划

计划初拟

第一阶段：主要写提纲，每天3篇ISSUE（尽量1个半小时完成）、10篇ARGUMENT（尽量2-3小时完成），目标ISSUE高频前100，A所有====大概25天左右，要不断复习
不用写得很详细（其实自己还是会不自主写细...），主要是熟悉题库和为第二阶段提供基础准备；A前面可以详细些，150后低频题主要用来训练思维
外加每两天1篇ISSUE全文+互改（考虑留出前20高频不写），抽空看例子、改进表达方式或者写几篇A

第二阶段：参考其他人的提纲，改进、熟悉自己的提纲，每天过10篇ISSUE和20篇A====大概10天左右
全文进度不变，从20高频开始往前写，开始尽量限时

第三阶段，继续熟悉提纲，ISSUE高频，并加大写全文力度，每天一篇ISSUE，早上写、晚上改，两天一篇A

第四阶段，熟悉提纲和自己写的高频全文，每天1I1A练习到考试，不一定修改，考虑抽空默写高频全文


中间可能有部分赶不上的话，周末补作业，写全文不能拖

关于REBORN FROM THE ASHES组COMMENTS活动的说明&汇总
写作实力，无论是使用哪种语言，是一个循环提升的过程，主要来说都是要经过”畏难——适应——熟练“三大阶段。几乎所有中国非英语专业学生以及部分英语专业学生都是处在畏难阶段，想起写英文就头疼，即使发一封e-mail都要吭哧半天，甚至很多考AW的人临场还是处在这种状态，那么分数不言而喻。

所以，无论当初大家说的那句想锻炼写作实力是否真的由衷而发，这次1006G的活动，我都要尽量提供给大家一个这样的计划。

上来就让大家开始每天或者每两天1I1A自然是可以保证训练量，但是对于训练效果并不见得会有让你满意的增长。对于仍然对写作存在畏难情绪的人们来说，很难在写作之前的思维提升、写作之中和之后的文字驾驭力上得到有效的提高，因为本身心就不在这上面，更不要说去体会其中的美感。循序渐进，夯实基础永远不是空话，只不过怎样去用这个句话，不同的人有不同的理解。

思维提升训练是必须的，但是同样语言基础也是很重要的。GRE是以英语为基础的逻辑测试，所谓的英语基础不仅仅是单词，不仅仅是语法，更多的是你对英文的熟练驾驭能力，而这个驾驭力则不仅仅是进行无目的的输入以及针对GRE真题的训练可以帮你迅速把握住的。关于逻辑，是后话，在以后的训练中会说，现在就不啰嗦了。
