The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a newspaper serving the villages of Castorville and Polluxton.
$ A* g8 z/ j& C. k( |& x"Both the villages of Castorville and Polluxton have experienced sharp declines in the numbers of residents who pay property taxes. To save money and improve service, the two villages recently merged their once separate garbage collection departments into a single department located in Castorville, and the new department has reported few complaints about its service. Last year the library in Polluxton had 20 percent fewer users than during the previous year. It follows that we should now further economize and improve service, as we did with garbage collection, by closing the library in Polluxton and using the library in Castorville to serve both villages."

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.

! n  a2 v& V% {  a都是近期和传统的高频题。
  e' l* N; W5 t9 D& nargument是140题，可以自己去查。
( j  @% |8 f& S' ~: c自己不是大牛，作文准备一定时间，基本最后一个月除了一些周末平均一天两篇左右，虽然水平还是不高，但至少问心无愧了。1 ?( f% ~" O" s5 K' z
自己平时的练习，我认为一定要限定时间，否则是没有意义的，可以在写完后修改，把没有写完的地方增添上，如果有语言导师或网上互改等的话，把一些句型和中式英语的地方看看，平时在word里要检查语法错误，有一些地方要提醒的是，word实际有很多地方是不能检查出来的，这一定要自己小心。如果同学有担心开始起步的时候怎样，我可以坦白说，第一次完全随机抽题，完全不靠工具自己写，I写了300没完，A也只有200多，当时气馁的一晚上心情都不好，但这就是最能反映自己问题和水准的时候，而事实上，很快自己的字数和思路就都上来了。
& h, [3 E  N- w4 V1 J. Z. k4 Gissue方面，高频十分重要，在提纲练习的时候，不是说想出思路来就行，思路就是网络上课本上的提纲加上自己的原创，如果时间充裕，最好完成一个完整的开头结尾（模板性很强），中间过渡句和大概的例子需要提到，因为实际上就有这样的问题，有了思路但在真正操作时却很难，尤其是自己的想法不会拿英语表达的时候。如果再有时间，最好把高频的那些，准备一些适合自己的文章，主要体现在不同于平常的思路或者不同于别人的例子，例如提到富人就是Bill Gates 换成Donald Trump好不好。而考试时遇到高频，一篇平时练得很好的题目比起一个只知道大概思路的甚至完全没有见过的自然要得心应手的多。1 G4 @: {% F4 _
TIPS：而建议一般性随机题目没见过的，差不多有5分钟时间思考就很够了，如果上来就开始打字，实际会很慢，而且影响思路。7 f% B: X  h. V6 @; W
但无论什么样的策略还是技巧，来自网络也好新东方也好，必须建立在平时有着训练的基础上，到时就什么都懂了，否则全是瞎掰。  a" h- W  X/ `3 j
至于argument，准备方面推荐读课本，首先是看着好的句子，有着一个自己习惯的模板就好，开始不要追求太漂亮。然后是思路练习，拿着题中英文都可以，自己先分析有那些问题，然后和后边的思路或者写作分析核对，一个争议比较大的题目多关注网上怎么说，题目错误要抓主要逻辑问题和逻辑链。很快思路就有了，在练习时尤其是后期建议随机抽题，A要达到随便拿起一篇就能写得地步。
6 E" O% J& F& Y) n: U- XTIPS：现在我看如今互改和argument的准备有个被忽视的地方，很多人先把一篇好写的argument占座，而准备也是往往先从A入手，这点都没问题。但在最后练习argument的时候，一定要在写完一篇issue的基础上，那时精神已经有些疲倦的时候写argument，因为单独写一篇是非常容易的，而在写一个更难的文章之后已经很累了，再从一片随机文章里找错误，那感觉是完全不一样的。这次我和一些同学及同考场的都感觉issue写好了，但argument却不满意。这个教训希望大家记住。

Only about 2 percent of customers have complained, indicating that 98 people out of 100 are happy with the change. Furthermore, many servers have reported that a number of customers who still ask for butter do not complain when they are given margarine instead. Clearly, either these customers cannot distinguish margarine from butter, or they use the term "butter" to refer to either butter or margarine. Thus, to avoid the expense of purchasing butter, the Happy Pancake House should extend this cost-saving change to its restaurants in the southeast and northeast as well.

. t, `1 E) k. V5 B3 I7 C0 d, Z我考前特别关注考场到底是怎么回事儿，可惜没有搜到说得特细的贴子，今天考完了尽量为大家多回顾一些
1 F7 e+ y  a: G; K4 W我是下午一点的考试，12点23到的，刚坐下也就两分钟，老师就开始发注意事项和誓言那几张纸了。所以，为了避免紧张，大家还是多提前到一点比较好。) y. h: S' ?" A4 X5 ?9 A) d
注意事项就一张纸，签个名就OK了，誓言两张，要用力点写，因为第二张是复写的。誓言那张纸左下角有两个签名第一行的签名先写中文名，再用大写字母写拼音，每个字母都大写，第二行也是先写中文名，再写拼音，不过是每个字的第一个字母用大写，其余用小写。这些老师都会告诉你，不过你要是坐得比较靠后可能会听不清。
% b! f3 _* Q7 s" a5 c( p之后排队将这两张纸交给老师，回座位上休息。  z# J( `+ G9 |, u+ _
之后老师会将注意事项那张纸上的内容统一念一遍。3 ]+ ^$ A1 S9 H& ~6 {0 R3 N
之后发钥匙，锁东西，除了两个证以外什么都不用带，也不能带（包括面巾纸，手纸）。 我把confirmation number 那张纸打出来带去了，根本就没从书包中拿出来，老师用你的身份证号就能把你的所有信息调出来了。所以完全没必要把那个号背下来。这时老师会提醒你脱衣服，以免考试时太热，我们考场有人一听这话都都脱到短袖了。我的经验waiting room和test toom温度差不多，如果在waiting room不热，就不用脱了，省得手忙脚乱。
* F* C) S3 h3 h+ [( ]# j8 ]之后是排队进第二个房间，这个过程很慢，可以上厕所，进了第二个房间后还想上厕所也是被允许的，不过那时再上就要占用2小时考试时间了，不过其实不用担心，上个厕所连两分钟都用不了，进去后把教你怎么用鼠标跳过就行了。. R$ O$ B: v6 `$ B8 d- R1 s
进了第二个房间后，可以更改地址，改完地址后，签一下进考场时间（老师用她的手机计时），之后老师就带你进去找你的座位了。（在你踏进test room前都能上厕所，进去以后就不行了）
1 e1 W) C* v" J* K之后是教你怎么用鼠标之类的，还有一个环节可以练练打字。  }, D9 _: h, U9 N& f5 o

我在考前就看看提纲，记得看过一个帖子说过，任何时候的努力都是值得的，所以我在考前一个晚上都还在看范文，我这个人有个毛病，考前不摸书心里就不踏实，看个人习惯而定了~不过可以告诉大家一个防止晚上失眠的好方法，就是考前一天中午别睡觉！然后再去跑跑步，或者剧烈运动晚上再喝个小牛奶，哇~那晚上睡得香得~我睡到早上6点多就自然醒了~今天精神状态一直不错，哈哈哈哈~终于考完了，居然月底还有个托福，又是本着玩玩的我，又要开始征程了~大家祝福我吧~有什么问题也可以问我，不过我知道的太少了~呵呵~ 实在是可能给不了什么实质性建议！最后祝福大家以后GRE都考好！不要担心，只要放松心态什么事情都是有可能的！别太紧张就行！不要放弃任何时候的努力~大家加油考出好成绩~！ 相信并且全力支持大家！

"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."

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.

The following appeared in a memorandum from the owner of Armchair Video, a chain of video rental stores "Because of declining profits, we must reduce operating expenses at Armchair Video's ten video rental stores. Raising prices is not a good option, since we are famous for our special bargains. Instead, we should reduce our operating hours. Last month our store in downtown Marston reduced its hours by closing at 6:00 P.M. rather than 9:00 P.M. and reduced its overall inventory by no longer stocking any film released more than two years ago. Since we have received very few customer complaints about these new policies, we should now adopt them at all other Armchair Video stores as our best strategies for improving profits."

第一位同学issue两个都不是很高频，就随便挑了Topic 1： 180.Many problems of modern society cannot be solved by laws and the legal system because moral behaviour cannot be legislated. 25.Anyone can make things bigger and more complex.What requires real effort and courage is to move in the opposite direction-in other words,to make things as simple as possible. Argu还算大高频: 45."Arctic deer live on islands in Canada's arctic region. They search for food by moving over ice from island to island during the course of a year. Their habitat is limited to areas warm enough to sustain the plants on which they feed, and cold enough, at least some of the year, for the ice to cover the sea separating the islands, allowing the deer to travel over it. Unfortunately, according to reports from local hunters, the deer populations are declining. Since these reports coincide with recent global warming trends that have caused the sea ice to melt, we can conclude that the decline in arctic deer populations is the result of deer being unable to follow their age-old migration patterns across the frozen sea."

/ Q, K8 `9 m. e有两种法律：公正的和不公正的。每个社会成员都有责任遵守公正的法律，但是更重要的是，更应该不遵守和反抗不公正的法律。 另一个不记得了 argument160 As people grow older, an enzyme known as PEP increasingly breaks down the neuropeptide chemicals involved in learning and memory. But now, researchers have found compounds that prevent PEP from breaking neuropeptides apart. In tests, these compounds almost completely restored lost memory in rats. The use of these compounds should be extended to students who have poor memory and difficulty in concentrating—and therefore serious problems in school performance. Science finally has a solution for problems neither parents nor teachers could solve.
