考试回顾

考场体验：北京王府学校

    考场地址：北京市昌平区北七家镇王府街11号北京王府学校1号楼4层

    交通路线：地铁5号线天通北苑站下车，换乘快速公交3号线到王府温馨公寓站(北京王府学校正门)。

　　考场评估：北京10月GRE考位十分紧张，提前一个多月已经没有任何考位，当时笔者还特意查询了北京周边天津以及石家庄的考点，发现也早已被订完。考前两个礼拜，ETS放出了北京王府学校和私立汇佳学校的一些考位，笔者果断报名。所以建议那些考试时间安排在紧靠申请季deadline的9月和10月的考生，务必至少提前2-3个月报名，当考位已满的时候，不时刷新报名页面，看有无新增考位放出。谈回北京王府学校这个考点，共有4个机房作为GRE考点。感觉监考人员业务素质不错，考场秩序维持的很好，无论安检还是监考都很严格。尽管离马路不远，但因为隔音很好，完全听不到外面嘈杂的声音。而且考场设备很新，加分。所以总体下来这个考场还是挺不错的，建议城北的考生把这个考点当做选项。

短文章：

For years, the leading theory for what caused the Younger Dryas (a dramatic reversal, about 12,900 years ago, in a global warming trend) was a release of water from Glacial Lake Agassiz. The theory posited that this meltwater flooded into the North Atlantic, lowering the salinity and intensity of surface waters enough to prevent them from sinking. Ocean currents were changed in such a way that northward transport of heat in the ocean diminished, and the North Atlantic regions plunged back into near-glacial conditions. However, evidence has emerged that the Younger Dryas began long before freshwater flooded the North Atlantic. Additionally, the temperature changes included by a shutdown in the North Atlantic heat conveyor system are too small to explain the Younger Dryas.

1.The author of the passage implies which of the following about the release of water from glacial Lake Agassiz?

A. The notion that the release occurred has been challenged by more recent findings.

B. The release probably occurred much earlier than scientists have generally assumed.

C. The release would not have been sufficient to cause any temperature change in the North Atlantic.

D. The timing of the release is such that it probably did not trigger the onset of the Younger Dryas.

E. The release was probably unrelated to the global warming trend that was taking place.

答案：选D.

解析：问下面哪个是作者暗示的和放水相关的.D说放水时机是这样的因此不可能带来YD的开始，完美符合选文中转折后面放水YD之后的描述。A选项质疑放水这件事的发生时原文没提及的。B说放水比科学家所普遍假设的要早，如果把科学家普遍假设和leading theory放在一个队伍的话，他们之前认为放水带来YD，那他们肯定认为放水要早咯，而实际YD要更早，那实际放水时间肯定比科学家假设的要晚。C选项错在any,太绝对了，没说放水一点温度变化也不能带来。E选项文章没说放水和全球变暖的关系。

填空

1. Anthropologist Jane Goodall was _____ in her determination to anthropomorphize the animals she observed with such empathy, and so resisted her editors’ attempts to recast her descriptions in more dispassionate language.

A. fickle


B. stalwart


C. solicitous

D. pretentious

E. whimsical

答案：B

解析：and 前后方向一致。And后面Jane Goodall 拒绝编辑以一种更不带感情的语言去编辑她的描述，因此前面半句也要体现她反对不带感情，即她支持要带有感情，因此选B—坚定她决心将那些(怀着共如此共情情绪去观察的)动物人格化的想法。

2. Though acquaintances are first overwhelmed by his ______, they soon appreciate that, contrary to appearances, he is not without self-interest.

A. egotism


B. magnanimity

C. ambition


D. profligacy


E. brilliance

答案：B

解析：Though 让步，因此逗号前后转折，后半句说他并不是无私的，前面半句应该体现无私，选B慷慨大方。

写作

   本次GRE考试出现了多套不同的作文题目，笔者遇到的题目如下：Issue

Some people believe that corporations have a responsibility to promote the well- being of the societies and environments in which they operate. Others believe that the only responsibility of corporations, provided they operate within the law, is to make as much money as possible.

Argument

The following appeared as part of an article in a Dillton newspaper.


"In an effort to bring new jobs to Dillton and stimulate the city's flagging economy, Dillton's city council voted last year to lower the city's corporate tax rate by 15 percent; at the same time, the city began offering generous relocation grants to any company that would move to Dillton. Since these changes went into effect, two new factories have opened in Dillton. Although the two factories employ more than 1,000 people, the unemployment rate in Dillton remains unchanged. The only clear explanation for this is that the new factories are staffed with out-of-town workers rather than Dillton residents.“

Write a response in which you discuss one or more alternative explanations that could rival the proposed explanation and explain how your explanation(s) can plausibly account for the facts presented in the argument.

但据笔者学生反应，至少还出现了以下几套作文题目Issue

1. Critical judgment of work in any given field has little value unless it comes from someone who is an expert in that field.

2. If a goal is worthy, then any means taken to attain it are justifiable.

3. Some people believe that competition for high grades motivates students to excel in the classroom. Others believe that such competition seriously limits the quality of real learning.

Argument

    1.The following appeared in a letter from a firm providing investment advice for a client.
"Most homes in the northeastern United States, where winters are typically cold, have traditionally used oil as their major fuel for heating. Last heating season that region experienced 90 days with below-normal temperatures, and climate forecasters predict that this weather pattern will continue for several more years. Furthermore, many new homes are being built in the region in response to recent population growth. Because of these trends, we predict an increased demand for heating oil and recommend investment in Consolidated Industries, one of whose major business operations is the retail sale of home heating oil."


    Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

    2. The following memorandum is from the business manager of Happy Pancake House restaurants. "Recently, butter has been replaced by margarine in Happy Pancake House restaurants throughout the southwestern United States. This change, however, has had little impact on our customers. In fact, only about 2 percent of customers have complained, indicating that an average of 98 people out of 100 are happy with the change. Furthermore, many servers have reported that a number of customers who ask for butter do not complain when they are given margarine instead. Clearly, either these customers do not distinguish butter from margarine or they use the term 'butter' to refer to either butter or margarine."

     Write a response in which you discuss one or more alternative explanations that could rival the proposed explanation and explain how your explanation(s) can plausibly account for the facts presented in the argument.

    3. The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of a food distribution company with food storage warehouses in several cities.
"Recently, we signed a contract with the Fly-Away Pest Control Company to provide pest control services at our fast-food warehouse in Palm City, but last month we discovered that over $20,000 worth of food there had been destroyed by pest damage. Meanwhile, the Buzzoff Pest Control Company, which we have used for many years, continued to service our warehouse in Wintervale, and last month only $10,000 worth of the food stored there had been destroyed by pest damage. Even though the price charged by Fly-Away is considerably lower, our best means of saving money is to return to Buzzoff for all our pest control services."

     Write a response in which you discuss what specific evidence is needed to evaluate the argument and explain how the evidence would weaken or strengthen the argument.

现在几乎每场考试都会出现多套作文题，而某些题目是反复出现的高频考题，所以建议考生考前重点练习这些题目。
