作者ilovekoala背景： [b]680 [b]800 [b]4.5 [b]（高考英语满分） [b][b]决定不重考的一刻，所有与GRE有关的东西就都结束了。作为过去的一段生活，似乎应该总结 [b]一下。偏偏我是一个不善回忆的人，能捕捉到的都是一些零星的片断。零散的东西，希望能 [b]给后来人一点帮助。如果大家看着有什么不满意，就请斑竹帮忙删了吧。我不想给自己找 [b]骂，更不敢污染大家的眼球。 [b][b]个人认为，GRE是要短期高强度训练的，唯有如此，才能对ets的出题模式有一定的熟悉，同 [b]时不至于使自己太疲劳。 [b][b]偶考G准备了3个月，去年12月到3.15。12月还在学期中，无法全力准备，决定先背单词。 [b][b]我用的是新东方的背单词软件，每天晚上9点半开始，先做昨天单词的测试（个人喜欢无敌枪 [b]手），正确率在65-85%间。然后听新词300个，马上做测试。由于有短期记忆，基本上正确率 [b]在90%。完成后，将所有错误的单词再听多遍，至睡意袭来，上床晕去。周末有空就复习一周 [b]的新词，没空就复习一周的错词。期末考期间由于要复习，没有坚持。至1.17上G班前，刚好 [b]把词听完一遍 [b][b]1.20-2.14上G班，春节休息4天。爸爸妈妈过来陪我7天，非常感谢他们的支持。上班期间， [b]每天7：30起，上班到2：00，回到万柳洗脸完大概3：10。学习到5：30，打饭（恨死万柳食 [b]堂，令我每到吃饭时间就郁闷），看动画同时吃饭。7：00-11：00，洗澡，学习。11：00睡 [b]觉。 [b][b]开始时词汇很次，类反课无法听懂，认为词没会前做类反题是浪费，于是决心专攻单词。 [b][b]词汇课后老师会布置作业，回去先查，背了，第二天再做作业。其他作业当天完成。通常做 [b]完就吃饭，然后背词。六个list一循环，铅笔做笔记，一轮后回看不会的（擦去铅笔印的感 [b]觉很爽）。一晚工作2-3循环，加上G班的零碎时间，春节前把99红宝看了4遍。 [b][b]春节放假4天。陪父母去玩了一天。看了三部电影：黑客帝国、阿甘正传、公主日记。红宝的 [b]铅笔标注词过了两遍，完全不懂的词（不知所指范围，如物理类、情感类， 不知褒贬）剩下 [b]15% 。 [b][b]后期G班较轻松。不用背词了，开始攻类反。脑袋里少跟弦，看不会。郁闷中，每天加一集 [b]friends消遣，同时每天跳绳10min。（因为郁闷狂吃，开始变fat） [b][b]词汇老师黄颀在倒数第二节课说，类反要连续看，多看了才有感觉。于是该晚上连续4小时类 [b]反，在第3小时后开始有起色，从9对4飞跃到9对7。三天后反弹。不懂同学为什么类反那么 [b]牛，一问，原来蓝宝。弃红取蓝。 [b][b]开学。脱产考G, 每周只做3小时实验，写<1.5小时的报告。其余时间图书馆自习或堕落。每 [b]天早上8点起，校车到校，早饭，图书馆四楼。看蓝宝至10：00，做模拟题。开始时主要做 [b]verbal，做一套题，大概到11：30， 吃饭。绕湖一圈，看作文。（做法见作文篇） [b][b]弄完就傍晚，吃饭，回万柳堕落。通常是一部电影或三集动画，觉得很爽，睡觉。没有gg,嫁 [b]给Gundam wing! [b][b]感谢两个人。帮我改作文的风入松和帮我找资料的yao。他们在我考G的时候给予了我很大的 [b]帮助，容忍了我的任性，还一直给我鼓励。没有他们，不会有不重考的koala。风入松找到了 [b]一份不错的工作，gxgx，好人有好报啊！ [b][b]备考时，语文中觉得最难的就是类反，考试的时候也是。尽管在单词上花了大量的时间，但 [b]由于考场上新词防不胜防，koala认为在这方面投入，产率很低。因此建议大家熟悉蓝宝的各 [b]种类反类型即可。反正大家都不会，到时就看那个词长得pp与否来蒙。 [b][b]填空也很重要，但由于ets比唐僧还罗索，填空逻辑比较好懂。G班是戚益的手下，觉得他比 [b]较帅，每节课坚持听完。觉得他总结的七条规律都很正确，上班期间每两天实践一次，提高 [b]显著。开始时7对4到结课时7对6并且控制在5min。 [b][b]阅读大家认为是难点，koala不同意。阅读要靠技巧，同时靠基本功。G班陈虎平老师的文章 [b]模式法节省了koala读第一遍，答案定位的时间，但要真正选出答案，还靠相关段落的细读。 [b]老师说的坏的阅读习惯koala改不掉，没有一次细读不是念读的。但是，koala念读的速度比 [b]较快。高中时，老师说过，说多快才能听多快，听多快才能看多快。这一直是koala的信条。 [b]Koala用初级听力20单元后的和中级听力来练听说速度。不求听懂，只要张嘴跟读，舌头能转 [b]过来。 [b][b]（发音？呵呵，显然不管！）每天一套阅读是基本。阅读课后总有4篇，另外的日子就找空的 [b]一长一短的做。春节前不求速度，要求基本找对位置，找出错题的原因；春节后开始计时， [b]原则是阅读共计18min。定闹表，训练自己处变不惊。（koala在考试中没有任何违反ets规 [b]定的行为） [b][b]脱产阶段，每天一套到两套真题（留下全新的模拟题5套给最后8天）。由于题目部分见过， [b]做起来速度较快，总是按填空=〉类反=〉阅读的顺序，一个section 22-28min。做完后看错 [b]题，用一个本子搜集不会的类反.（事实证明，这是毫无意义的。Sigh…）对于阅读总是做完 [b]题就算，从来没有要搞明白他说什么的欲望。（千万不能有这种欲望，阅读一定要全文瞎 [b]读，答案细读） [b][b]同学问阅读提高，说阅读习惯改不过来，偶认为无需改，只要提速。建议大家每天携带初级 [b]或中级听力的磁带，在路上听，同时跟着读。完全听不懂时可以先看文字材料，听到六成懂 [b]时就不要拘泥于意义，只要求口腔运动能跟得上磁带的语音变化。不过，koala因此两个月在 [b]公车上被人当白痴。：（ [b][b]数学没什么好说的。无聊的时候做一套，看看美国人有多蠢，也是一种阿Ｑ式的自嘲。记得 [b]考前将祝可归纳的数学词汇看一遍。 [b][b]作文是koala投入最多的，所以对于自己的作文成绩实在不怎么满意，不过，这归因于koala [b]对ets作文出题的判断失误。两道题都是偶认为基本不可能考的，完全没有准备。所以，可以 [b]原谅自己了。只是对不起风入松和yao。 [b][b]如果可以的话，最好能找到这样的两个人：英语专业，熟悉英文表达习惯，帮忙修改作文的 [b]人；电脑狂强，能迅速帮你找到所需资料的人。其实，koala当初没有想过会得到这么多的帮 [b]助，只是厚着脸皮去问了两个认识的不是很熟的朋友，结果……感动、感激、 [b]sigh… [b][b]作文最重要的是写什么，而不是怎么写。一篇文章，要有内容才会有说服力。一味的堆砌词 [b]句只能落个论证不充分的评价。我们没有欧美人的思维习惯，逻辑展开对于大家来说不是一 [b]件容易的事，相对的，举例子的方法比较好用。 [b][b]拿到题目，偶总是先想应该从哪些方面展开。先用树型图将观点的结构表示出来，然后再找 [b]合适的例子。例子偶都是用中文想的，如果涉及著名人物、事件、名称的例子，就拜托yao帮 [b]忙找英文和相关背景。东西都弄齐后，就可以开始写。头十天，总是想法很多，拿起笔却觉 [b]得每个句子都须斟酌。不考虑时间，只求写出满意的作文，常常用两个小时写５００字。然 [b]后麻烦风入松。看他把我的句子左右颠倒，前后调换，看他把我的连词一一改动，逐渐感觉 [b]到英语的语言习惯。但风入松从来不添加原文中没有的东西，对于他看不懂的句子，总是先 [b]问我想要表达的意思，再告诉我如何表达。不过，这种句子每篇文章不超过２个，否则，他 [b]就不管了。调完语序后，他会和我讨论结构的问题，例子合适的问题，在保持我的论点的前 [b]提下，提示我增减事例。 [b][b]１０天，写了１０篇大家都比较满意的文章。待会偶会贴上来。 [b][b]　　后来风入松要找工作，偶就一个人奋战。开始觉得文思枯竭，没有想法，决定丢弃全文 [b]弄题库。由于题库太大，偶选择认为会考的题目进行思考，剖析逻辑关系，搜集例子。 [b][b]（可惜的是，偏偏放掉了考题。哭死）。以提纲的方式列好，一小时大约工作３－５篇，中 [b]文想的例子至少每两篇一个，拜托同学找到确切翻译和背景（可怜的ｙａｏ，就如此被我不 [b]断剥削。实在非常感谢）。有心情时，粗制滥造一篇有提纲的作文，时间大约在４０ｍｉ [b]ｎ，通常是三天两篇。 [b][b]　　至于ｉｓｓｕｅ，新东方的格式是入门的基础，但再继续写却没有多大作用。决定一切 [b]从原文开始，不再管东方的ａｂｃ，拿着文字就去挑骨头。觉得ｉｓｓｕｅ不需要大家观全 [b]貌，只要找出错误就行。论证时随便胡扯，最好用问句排比使判卷的头晕。 [b][b]PS: 偶没有用过任何一本东方课本外的写作书，没有看过除ets三篇范文外的文章。总是觉 [b]得，自己的想法最重要，如果看了例文，自己就写不出来了。而且有风入松帮我改，放心的 [b]说：） [b][b]没有想过会考choice这么俗的题，结果拿到题目，一片空白，什么外国例子忘得一干二净， [b]只能想起来美国的new deal算是个选择，剩余的，就是中国如何走上社会主义道路。 [b][b]偶的文章分了5段。头尾去掉，上来先来个逻辑论述。大体就是人不选择，不对自身负责，社 [b]会就没有人关注，历史就不可能发展之类的。然后是罗斯福新政。就是一个不屈从于时代， [b]提出自己看法的大胆选择。而美国人民对罗斯福的选择，也是自觉的，是对国家经济发展承 [b]担责任义务的表现。 [b][b]接着是一大段中国近代史。主要论述中国人民如何对自己祖国的发展做出各自的探索和选 [b]择。排比了几个：西方科技的引进（北洋舰队、民族工业发展），康梁的戊戌变法，孙中山 [b]的资产阶级革命，中国共产党的社会主义探索。大人物以后，谈到，不是说他们的选择决定 [b]了中国的发展历程，重要的是，广大积极投身时代变革的中国人民，是守在土地上忍受地主 [b]的剥削别国的侵略，还是拿起武器捍卫自己的未来，是遇到危险临阵逃脱还是坚持信念战斗 [b]到底，是每一个个人的抉择，决定了中国的未来。 [b][b]大概就是这样一篇东西。记得不是很清了。考完出来差点没哭，觉得一个月的作文准备白费 [b]了，而且都是拼音，估计他们也看不懂。当时想着要尽快忘掉，以免痛苦，现在只能回忆到 [b]这个程度，argue更是什么都不知道了。 [b][b]但从结果看来，ets并不排斥中国。所以，写身边熟悉的事可能更甚于写不了解的文化 [b][b]题目：It is more important to allocate money for immediate, existing social [b]problems than to spend it on long-term research that might help future [b]generations. [b][b]Is it proper to send man to Mars while a large population suffers [b]illiteracy? [b]Is it humane to fund billions for the research of AIDS while millions of [b]people in Africa starve to death? Immediate existing social problems [b]deserve more attention and money than the long-term research. [b][b]Lots of social problems in our times vibrate foundation of our constitution [b]as well as hamper the promotion of our life quality. Unemployment and [b]illiteracy are such matters ? The hungry ,the laid off workers and those [b]without any fundamental living skills need to survive, in contrast ,neither [b]will our society be stable nor a number of the so-called high-tech [b]investigations will benefit of the population. Imagine a hungry beggar, [b]cold and pallid, wandering along streets in the day and cringing under [b]bridges at night, how could he benefit from any space exploration? If our [b]community is thronged with such people, commercialization and development [b]seem to be impossible. Even worse the solidity of the state would remain a [b]question. On the other hand, if more money are allocated to educate and [b]train the people, helping them adapt to the ever-shifting society and ever- [b]developing technology, they will acquire fundamental skills to catch up [b]with the world and form a more capable working force for a prosperous [b]industry. Therefore, governments should focus on the problems of [b]unemployment and illiteracy. [b][b]Environmental degradation is another exigent problem as serious as [b]unemployment and illiteracy. Green House Effect, caused by the increasing [b]concentration of CO2 in atmosphere, has warmed the earth and generated many [b]climatic changes partly responsible for the extinction of certain species [b]and the decrease of fertile farmlands. Exhaust and waste in large cities [b]have greatly polluted the air and the river, rendering people more [b]susceptible to air-borne and water-borne diseases. Sand storms, [b]signs/traces of erosion of productive soil and desertification, come out [b]every year and sweep the cities with its violent and devastating blows. [b]People can not live in these suffocating situation. Apart from the above [b]three issues mentioned, many other representatives of environmental [b]degradation have been influencing the globe frequently. All of them require [b]urgent treatments and lots of money. [b][b]Emphasis on the immediate social problems, however, does not mean that [b]long-term research providing a brighter future for our descendants needs [b]little consideration. We must, at the same time, care about sustainable [b]development. For example, we must cultivate and hone our children, the [b]master of future; we must spend money on infrastructure such as [b]transportation and energy, which is the base of an industrial country; we [b]must fund for our national defense that is essential and crucial for [b]stability, peace and independence. In a word, we should not neglect long- [b]term research. [b][b]To sum up, both immediate and long-term projects require our money and [b]attention. But I hold that we should allocate more resource on the most [b]urgent problems of the present, which is important and indispensable for [b]the development of our society. [b][b]题目：college students—and people in general—prefer to follow directions [b]rather than make their own decisions. Therefore, colleges should eliminate [b]as many choices as possible in order to offer students clear direction. [b][b]What most people really want to attain is not knowledge, but certainty. [b]Unfortunately, certainty adds little to knowledge. Therefore, colleges [b]shall [b]propel students to search rather than impose directions on them. [b][b]Habitually, what most people want is a comfortable nest. Gaining real [b]knowledge, however, requires taking risks and keeping the mind open, in the [b]mean time, obliges people to learn the complex and often unsettling truth, [b]which might result in a complete collapse of one’s interpretation about [b]the world. Suddenly the long-worshipped ideology ruins and the familiar [b]world takes on a horrible new look. For those comfortably settled in their [b]pigeon holes, this uncertainty arouses uneasiness as well as confusion. [b]Rather than gladly face the unknown world, most prefer to [b]turn their back to it and follow conventional doctrines, because clear [b]direction exonerates them from the painstaking grope for truth. That’s why [b]Athens expelled Socrates and Catholic burned Bruno to death. [b]Unfortunately ,certainty itself promotes no knowledge, [b][b]New knowledge starts with challenge to the old one, for, if without [b]skepticism, people accept all the dominant theories, they would have little [b]inclination to observe new phenomena, not to mention, probe the deep-hidden [b]truth. If Copernicus had not questioned Aristotle, there would not be [b]modern astronomy; if Einstein had not doubted Newton, there would be no [b]contemporary physics. Therefore, in order to advance technology, people [b]learn to doubt, to face uncertainty, and to give their own judgments, [b]however painful it may be. [b][b]Colleges shall help students develop the desire to challenge and the [b]ability to decide. It is in college that people originate a formulative [b]world view, meanwhile, form their own system of thinking. If they have no [b]choice to decide and only need to follow certain guidance, their ability to [b]judge could not be trained and honed; gradually they might yield totally to [b]authorities, losing all the vigor of creativity and originality. [b]Consequently, they may be like automatic machines, only taking and [b]executing orders. Then, not an ingenious thought would glisten in society [b]and knowledge would be like backwaters. [b][b]On the other hand, if a college enjoys a democratic atmosphere, leaving [b]many choices to its students, students may broaden their eye-sight and [b]think more thoroughly; for, before one makes a decision, he shall study [b]information from at least two different prospective. In that case, students [b]are inclined to look at a problem from diverse aspects. As a result, they [b]may come up with meaningful findings, infancy of new knowledge. After [b]weighing in mind all the relevant factors, a student is then required to [b]pin one, on which he bases his following actions. Simply put, the process [b]of decision-making horns a student’s ability to discern the most important [b]factor, to view a broad picture rather than fragments of information, which [b]is crucial and essential for scientific research., because only by grasping [b]the determining factor, can scientists unravel the complex phenomenon and [b]forge through to the core of a matter. Thus, decision-making is [b]indispensable in the course of education. [b][b]In order to forestall the tendency of completely conforming to conventions [b]as well as sparkle a student’s initiality, colleges shall encourage their [b]students to make their own decisions. Otherwise, the world may be thronged [b]with people without innovative thoughts, choking further development in [b]science. [b][b]红色的GRE写作，17 [b][b]This argument is relatively sound, however, there are several precarious [b]assumptions: the speed of tickets sold is an adequate indicator of the [b]band’ [b]s popularity; what is successful in Megalopolis is sure to succeed [b]nationwide; advertising will [b]certainly result in good sales of tickets. [b][b]First, the arguer fails to rule out other factors besides popularity that [b]cause the tickets to be sold out fast, such as the renovation of [b]ticket-selling devices and the total number of tickets available. If [b]tickets [b]were sold by ticket sellers and [b]people had to queue to buy, no doubt that it would go out much slower than [b]today when people can reserve and transact on the web, regardless of the [b]band is popularity. If the total number of tickets on sale is bigger, it is [b]more likely that the tickets take more time to sell, especially when the [b]amount exceed those who desire to attend the concert. For example, when [b]there’re 4,000 people eager to listen to their performance, 3,000 tickets [b]is inadequate therefore quickly sold, while 5,000 means a [b]surfeit and may not sell out. Thus, in order to evaluate their popularity, [b]the number of tickets sold and the audience/seats radio should be [b]presented, not the speed of tickets sold be compared. [b][b]Second, the argument builds on the assumption that M and the whole country [b]share some similarities concerning with the band, which, however, I take [b]leave to doubt. What if only people in M are frantic about this band？What [b]if only people in M consider music a necessary part of life? what if only [b]people in M are willing to pay a high price to enjoy a concert? What if [b]only the hall in M has the special equipments required by the band for best [b]performance? There’s no evidence in this argument to [b]guarantee that things in M can be applied nationwide. [b][b]Finally, the arguer gives no support that the sales of tickets is a result [b]from advertising. No fact is presented, no statistic is cited and no [b]comparison is made. As a result, the comments on the effect of advertising [b]remain dubious. [b][b]There’s no reason the band should not hire an ad company to launch a [b]campaign. But before following the recommendation, the band should [b]investigate more about the sales of tickets, their popularity throughout [b]the [b]country and the actual effect of advertising. [b][b]ilovekoala的3G小结（完） [b][b]当时训练的最后一些残迹，敲了一晚上，贴在这里，不知道为什么。神志已经不清，完全没 [b]有思考能力了，觉得理解自己理解世界实在是一件很困难的事。在版上占了那么多地方，估 [b]计没有人会看完：）不过，哪怕只是一点，还是谢谢你，浪费宝贵的时间看一只树熊在发傻 [b]还是那句，如果惹大家不高兴了，就请斑竹删掉吧 [b]只能睡两个小时了......
