- A5 b' X1 P0 w; _. ^9 Y( U# R. ]! C8 U& z+ L) M
"Monarch Books should open a café in its store to attract more customers and better compete with Regal Books, which recently opened a café. Monarch, which has been in business at the same location for more than twenty years, has a large customer following because it is known for its wide selection of books on all subjects. Opening the café would clearly attract more customers. The café would require relatively little space. Space could be made for the café by discontinuing the children's book section, which will likely become less popular given that the last national census indicated a significant decline in the percent of the population who are under age ten."

- o4 e9 ~3 O1 H# T! l3 W& V还好两道都高频,不过一开始点proceed点的太快,结果一个不小心两道题出来了都还没反应过来. 所以,突然紧张了一下.! I/ h. e6 ?- w! U! K' }' [
刚开始写的时候还是很紧张的,脑子迟钝写不下去,感觉开头不是很好(所以可以建议像XDF说的写完正文再开头结尾,因为开头决定了30%的分数!)后来进入状态了就很坦了,Issue考完就感觉一个大担子没了!" F' B/ T2 _# u7 b# s% B
总之,大家一开始紧张的想走人的话一定要坚信后面会变好的!进入状态很重要!  _* l5 T5 H# p& ?$ h
还有,平时练习建议改成限时40和25. 不然考试一紧张会来不及!
; [, l9 C/ E& _* S; o/ r0 G还有还有,我这次发现很多单词都拼错打错了!虽说ETS拼写错误不扣分,当你总得让人家知道你在说什么吧,人家可没那个闲工夫来猜你想拼哪个单词!所以,有空的话考之前的晚上看下六级单词,就当催眠!
& F+ p# D& B! ?上财的食堂菜不错,老师很亲切,尤其是里面那个,还有键盘非常舒服,我平时都用笔记本也没觉得不适应.耳机带上也没什么大碍.所以大家大可不必担心这些考场服务问题,专心准备考试就是.$ b& I5 ?% S% S* ^9 D0 x* ^
最后,提纲一定要记牢!我今天写电视机和书的那到,差点写到Video和手写那道去了.......4 r3 o( l1 N9 @3 x

It is true that a majority of faculty members voted in favor of coeducation, arguing that it would encourage more students to apply to Grove. But eighty percent of the students responding to a survey conducted by the student government wanted the school to remain all female, and over half of the alumni who answered a separate survey also opposed coeducation. Keeping the college all-female, therefore, will improve morale among students and convince alumni to keep supporting the college financially."
