archaeological evidence of inhabitation in the period from 40,000 to 25,000
years ago is lacking because that region
was colonized less than 25,000 years ago
‧The Oxfordian theory of Shakespeare 莎士比亚另有其人说
‧长篇阅读：文化遗产保存的问题，主要提到一开始在纽约很盛行，也就是认为纽约是
理所当然的文化遗产保留的重镇，然后就开始有一些理论说loser才往回看，winner则是
放眼未来。（有两三题是特定句子的目标之类的）。
‧metapredator，就是不是生态系里面地位最高的掠食者，说在栖地崩坏变离散之后，
这类中间等级的掠食者会取得优势，然后说明两个原因，其一是等级最高的会无法生存，
有些细节记不太清楚了，另外一个我也有点忘记了，但是最后说到这种top-down和
down-top，一个应该就是只等级最高的掠食者消失，另外一个就是，中间等级的掠食者可
以在生态系改变之后有较好的适应，所以当两个条件都答成之后，就造成了这种中间等级
的掠食者大量繁殖（后面这个down-top的那句话有考目的题）。
‧埋在地底管线的问题，就先说明埋在地底的管线有什么优势和好处，接着说明他在汰
换的时候的方便性，然后最后比较一般的bored（应该是指裸管和这种埋管的差别性）。
‧有个作家写了一个跟植物有关的书，他希望透过这本书来让女性可以有别的方式来面
对自己的生活，但是特别强调说，书的作者其实没有那种鼓励女性来反抗当权这样的想法
，他们只是想要让女性的生活可以过得更好（这概念蛮重要的，因为我记得考题都是在考
这个概念）。
‧一个Cub地区的writer，说土生土长之后，他们用英文写文章就会有一些特色，所以创
造了一个Cub...的名词来形容他，中间出现comfortable问它的意思最接近…，接下来好
像也从西班牙的英文写作来看。
‧探讨arthropod的演化
‧科学家说：陆地的上升比海平面的上升快，之后有一个hypothesis解释这个理论，且
这个理论被observer支持，下面又有一段话好像是反对以上的论点（某个大陆还是岛的上
升率小于海平面）
题目问：那个hypothesis跟下面那段话的关系跟功能是什么
▲ 逻辑
‧蜘蛛变色，他的猎食者仍可分辨保护色的差别，所以蜘蛛变色没用。
‧bold face
说最近观察到海平线上升（出现第一个反白），说因为这几年以来，北极的冰融化比结冻
的还要多，所已造成海平面上升很合理，但是突然说到最近海岸线的上升观察到的结果并
不会因为上述观察到的现象而有所牴触，因为地层不断的活动使得一些区域还是不断的因
为造山运动而上升（这句也是反白的）。
题目就问这两句的目的是什么。
‧nausea和某个level之间的关系，某level愈高，也愈有机会nausea，问这是建立在什
么assumption

Issue
[44] Claim: It is no longer possible for a society to regard any living man
or woman as a hero.

[84] 命中GRE作文黄宝书九月号
It is no longer possible for a society to regard any living man or woman as a
hero.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or
disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure
to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to
challenge your position.
[030] Teachers' salaries should be based on their students' academic
performance.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or
disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure
to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to
challenge your position.
Argument
[35] The following appeared in a letter from the owner of the Sunnyside
Towers apartment complex to its manager.
"One month ago, all the showerheads in the first three buildings of the
Sunnyside Towers complex were modified to restrict maximum water flow to
one-third of what it used to be. Although actual readings of water usage
before and after the adjustment are not yet available, the change will
obviously result in a considerable savings for Sunnyside Corporation, since
the corporation must pay for water each month. Except for a few complaints
about low water pressure, no problems with showers have been reported since
the adjustment. I predict that modifying showerheads to restrict water flow
throughout all twelve buildings in the Sunnyside Towers complex will increase
our profits even more dramatically."
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be
answered in order to decide whether the prediction and the argument on which
it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these
questions would help to evaluate the prediction.
[7] The following is a recommendation from the Board of Directors of Monarch
Books.
"We recommend that Monarch Books open a café in its store. Monarch, having
been in business at the same location for more than twenty years, has a large
customer base because it is known for its wide selection of books on all
subjects. Clearly, opening the café would attract more customers. Space
could be made for the café by discontinuing the children's book section,
which will probably become less popular given that the most recent national
census indicated a significant decline in the percentage of the population
under age ten. Opening a café will allow Monarch to attract more customers
and better compete with Regal Books, which recently opened its own café."
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be
answered in order to decide whether the recommendation is likely to have the
predicted result. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would
help to evaluate the recommendation.
[74] The president of Grove College has recommended that the college abandon
its century-old tradition of all-female education and begin admitting men.
Pointing to other all-female colleges that experienced an increase in
applications after adopting coeducation, the president argues that
coeducation would lead to a significant increase in applications and
enrollment. However, the director of the alumnae association opposes the
plan. Arguing that all-female education is essential to the very identity of
the college, the director cites annual surveys of incoming students in which
these students say that the school's all-female status was the primary reason
they selected Grove. The director also points to a survey of Grove alumnae in
which a majority of respondents strongly favored keeping the college all
female.
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be
answered in order to decide whether the recommendation and the argument on
which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these
questions would help to evaluate the recommendation.
