　　Issue 99."In any realm of life—whether academic, social, business, or political—the only way to succeed is to take a practical, rather than an idealistic, point of view. Pragmatic behavior guarantees survival, whereas idealistic views tend to be superceded by simpler, more immediate options."

　　Argument 17"The following appeared in a letter to the editor of the Walnut Grove town newspaper. "

　　"Walnut Grove&aposs town council has advocated switching from EZ Disposal (which has had the contract for trash collection services in Walnut Grove for the past ten years) to ABC Waste, because EZ recently raised its monthly fee from $2,000 to $2,500 a month, whereas ABC&aposs fee is still $2,000. But the town council is mistaken; we should continue using EZ. EZ collects trash twice a week, while ABC collects only once. Moreover, EZ—which, like ABC, currently has a fleet of 20 trucks—has ordered additional trucks. Finally, EZ provides exceptional service: 80 percent of respondents to last year&aposs town survey agreed that they were &apossatisfied&apos with EZ&aposs performance."

　　Issue11."All nations should help support the development of a global university designed to engage students in the process of solving the world&aposs most persistent social problems."

　　Issue48."The study of history places too much emphasis on individuals. The most significant events and trends in history were made possible not by the famous few, but by groups of people whose identities have long been forgotten."

　　这两道都是超高频啊，48我写过的，考前在宾馆还看过，不过听我们作文老师说写高频不易得高分。。。

　　Argument88.The following appeared in a newsletter about health published in the country of Sauria.

　　"According to Sauria&aposs leading nutritional experts, a diet high in complex carbohydrates, and low in fat is optimal for good health and longevity. Because this was the diet of the people who lived in ancient Sauria, one would expect them to have had long and healthy lives. Yet the mummified remains of Sauria&aposs ruling classes from two to three thousand years ago show the existence of many medical problems among the ancient Saurians, including dental problems, elevated blood pressure, obesity, heart disease, and early mortality. Clearly, the diet of the ancient Saurians was responsible for these problems. The high incidence of high blood pressure, obesity, and heart disease in Sauria today even among those who have tried low-fat, high-carbohydrate diets further proves that Sauria&aposs leading nutritional experts are wrong."

　　温馨提示：考前有一大堆叫你怎么使用鼠标还有调查问卷什么的，千万不要一路next啊，因为中间要你选择笔试考点的，如果你不选择，就默认为北京了喔。此外，考完后有四个送分学校，是按照州来找的，不太好找，我找了很久，因为这些学校的每个字母都是大写的，除此之外，还细分到各个学院，大家最好之前准备好喔。
