TOEFL08年机经1

2008/1/13(2006 /10/21！！！！)（已詳細補全4部分及加試，申請加精）參見2006 年10 月21 機經，紅色部分是我補充的參考了Promethues的帖子閲讀（难）First stage 很籠統，沒看明白。

Second stage是通過traveller １．讲的comparative education.发展三阶段．的discription來觀察其他國家的education system. 舉了某著名教育學家的例子，說他去了很多國家，然後回來寫了本什麽書，好像是criticize的；然後這本書被批駁，說過於limit (多選，問哪兩方面被批評是limit 的；答案所在的那個句子結構很複雜，我大概猜的，不誤導了，看有沒牛人補充一下) 。

後面一段說compare to 這個教育學家，另外一個（不記得名字了，姑且叫教育學家B）is XX. XX 是一個詞彙題，我不認得所以也沒記住，但根據意思選了個successful. 這個教育學家B怎麽怎麽的（沒考，就沒仔細讀），然後來了句Although他的書很systematic, 他還是被認爲是第一個descriptive的XX(考句子簡化，答案就是這個，原句有些彆扭，不太記得，反正有個although)。

再來第三階段以後的我就模糊了，因爲第一篇，感覺很難，又怕時間來不及~~~大概意思是一直講到現在的發展吧。

最後幾句是講現在的教育學家都focus on 什麽business learning啊之類的。

考作者是如何組織文章的。

最後summarise 的題不好做，選項極其迷惑。

可能因爲我沒讀好吧。

２.比较简单，背景也是旧托常考的关于火山的．讲的是关于火山爆发前的预测。

一開始說火山爆发analogue to weather forecast，問為什麽這樣說。

前兆主要有地震頻率加大，但是也有例外的，舉了個XX山的例子，名字忘了，它跟Hawaii某山在同一段裏面（考，問提到這兩個山為什麽）；還有m物質在地層中上升，導致XX變熱。

gmat新版考试内容

gmat新版考试内容
新版GMAT考试将分为三个部分：
1. 数据分析Data Insights（新增版块）
2. 定量推理Quantitative Reasoning
3. 文本逻辑推理Verbal Reasoning
GMAT考试形式
1. 标记和修改答案
考生可以根据需要为任意数量的题目添加标记、进行检查，并且在每个科目的剩余时间内可以返回更改最多三个答案。

但是，要注意回看和修改的时间是在该科目总计时之下的，并没有额外增加做题时间。

2. 更灵活的考试顺序
在新版GMAT考试中，考生可以任意选择三个科目的考试顺序；而在当前版本的GMAT考试中，考生只能在3种固定的考试顺序中选择一种。

3. 休息时间有所调整
休息时间可选，考试过程中仅有一次10分钟的休息，可以自行决定是在第一个科目或第二个科目结束时休息，现行GMAT考试有两个8分钟的休息。

4. 自适应机制方面
新版还是保留了“每个题必须选了才能跳到下一个题”这个老版设置，但是允许做标记了。

并且，当所有题目答完过后，可以切换回
去Review任何一道题，不管是否有标记。

不过，也不是完全没有限制地改答案：每个Section只能改3个答案。

“可以回改答案”的设置降低了临场试错成本，可以减轻了考生的心理压力，相当于变相的降低考试难度。

新版GMAT官方备考软件GMATprep简介

适⽤：2006年及之后的GMAT考试下载：GMAC站及ChaseDream均有下载在ETS主持GMAT考试时，发布的GMAT备考软件称为PowerPrep for GMAT Review，最新版是第3版，我们习惯上简称为PP3. PowerPrep是ETS的注册商标，当GMAC与ETS在2005年末中⽌GMAT合作后，Pearson VUE负责发布新版的GMAT 备考软件（2006年适⽤），启⽤了⼀个新的商标：GMATPrep，这个商标归属GMAC. 2006 GMAT备考软件界⾯变更 • 分辨率 640*468改为1024*768 • 按钮的形状、颜⾊改变 • 阅读部分underline-> highlight • 确认⽅式更改，在2006版中，弹出⼀个新的窗⼝来确认 • 作⽂部分界⾯ • 字体的改变 • 软件使⽤java编写注意：GMATPrep的界⾯适⽤于2006年及之后的考试，在2005年内界⾯与PP3（PowerPrep for GMAT Review 3）相同，2005年考试熟悉考试界⾯请使⽤PP3. Minimum System Requirements Before installing the GMATPrep? software, be sure your computer meets the requirements listed below. The software is not designed to install and run properly on systems that do not meet these requirements. ● Pentium III PC or compatible, 1 GHz （Pentium 4, 2 GHz recommended）.

GMAT备考资料

GMAT核心资料篇所谓核心资料，也可以理解为准备GMAT考试的最高优先级的资料。

原则上来说，非真题的备考资料基本不推荐。

Official Guide for GMAT Review（官方指南，以下简称OG）OG即official guide for GMAT Review，由GMAC出版的官方指南，目前最新版本为第12版，论坛上简称OG12。

依次类推以前的版本有OG11，OG10。

下表列出目前可以见到的三个OG版本的始发年份和构成。

版本始发年份构成OG 10 1999 综合，共一本OG 11 2005 综合+语文分册+数学分册，共三本OG 12 2008 综合+语文分册+数学分册，共三本OG是最基本同时也是最官方的备考资料，其中所有的题目均是过去实战中的原题，给出的题目解析也充分体现了GMAC的出题角度和考察内容。

在备考GMAT时，我唯一强烈建议大家购买纸质档的两本书：OG12综合与OG12语文分册。

在OG中最有用的部分是语法部分的解释，认真地用心体会，解析里面的每一句话都不应该错过。

“OG每看一遍都会有新的收获！”——这是很多前辈都赞成的备考真理。

据观察，OG本身所体现的考点和标准也不断有所变化。

例如曾经OG10中允许使用的部分语法点在OG12中视为绝对错误的用法。

所以推荐大家使用最新版的OG。

切记，OG的解释是最官方的说法，如果遇到与其他非真题资料相矛盾的地方，请选择相信OG；在语法部分，细心研读的同学会发现阅读和逻辑的文章中出现语法并不允许的用法，也请不要钻牛角尖，相信语法部分的解释。

因为阅读和逻辑的文章原稿并不是GMAC本身所写，也不是商业类文章，难免出现与语法相矛盾的地方。

PREP破解GMAT官方免费提供了GMAT模考软件GMATPrep，其界面与真实考试完全相同，但是我们只能做两套模拟题。

有前辈发现GMATPrep中事实上内置了一个很大的题库，Prep破解即前辈从GMATPrep中还原出来的完整题库，全部属于真题，且有标准答案，是分项突破时很好的练习材料。

2008年2月23日GMAT数学真题总结

假设I为绝对值符号 Key: -20+2-4=-22 2. a= 2^4, b=2^a, 2^x=a^b, what is value of x? a=2^4=16; b=2^a=2^16; 2^x=16^(2^16)=2^(2^18) Key:à x=2^18=1024*256 3. * , the answer is -1. The last quesion in Math. Key: ((x+y)/(x-y))*((y-x)/(y+x))=-1 4. X, Y are positive integers. Is Y odd? a. XY=even b. X+Y=even “Is” type question a: Y/N (yes or no, means Y can be either odd or even) not sufficient b: Y/N not sufficient a+b: (从问题倒推) If Y odd, then (a) x is even and then (b) x is odd->can not be true!! If Y is even, then (a) x is even or odd and then (b) x is even->can be true. Thus Y MUST be even. Therefore, to answer “Is Y odd”, NO. So a+b together sufficient. Key C:　a, b alone not sufficient, but together are sufficient. 5. How many mutiples of 3 between -100 and 100. I choose 67, as I consider 0. 1.倍数的定义是：⼀个数能够被另⼀数整除，这个数就是另⼀数的倍数。

About 40 per cent of the国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 9 页（共14页）population’s food and a large proportion of the raw materials used by industry have to be imported. In 1980 exports of goods and services were equal to about 25 per cent of the Gross National Product.In the exports of manufactures, the UK, in recent years, has done less well than her major competitors. The UK’s share of the value of the main manufacturing countries’exports fell from 16 percent in 1980 to about 9 per cent in 1999. This was due to the fact that the volume of UK exports increased at an annual average rate of 5 per cent, only about one-half the rate achieved by the main manufacturing countries as a whole and about one-third the rate for Japan.Changes in the commodity composition of exports have been very small in recent years. The share of manufactured goods has increased slightly while the share of basic materials has declined. There has been a steady decline in the share of textiles and an increase in the share of chemicals in total exports. Over the next decade the possibility of exporting North Sea Oil and the diminishing dependence on imported oil should have a beneficial effect on the UK’s visible trade balance.The most striking change in the geographical distribution of UK exports in国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 10 页（共14页）recent years has been the swing away from the traditional Commonwealth markets and a growing dependence on the market in Western Europe. Exports to Western Europe accounted for about 34 per cent of UK exports in 1989 but by 2000 this share had grown to nearly 60 per cent. This is much in line with developments in world trade as a whole, because trade between industrialized countries has been the fastest growing sector of world trade. The other important development is the growing importance of the markets in the oil-exporting countries.（）1. The export of manufactures of U.K. during recent years .A. has risen.B. has done better than the major competitors.C. has fallenD. has done less well that developing countries.（） 2.

Which statement is not true?A. UK is exporting more to Western Europe.B. trade between UK and WesternEurope has been the fastestgrowing sector of world trade.C. UK will possibly import less oil over the next decade.D. UK is exporting more chemicals. Passage TwoIs a quiet revolution under way in the国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 12 页（共14页）nation’s shopping habits? Are we gradually allowing an increasingly select number of large companies to take care of all our basic requirements? The supermarket chains certainly hope so. ‘Peo ple don’t have the time to shop around any more. If they’re happy with the quality of a company’s service, then they’re likely to buy other product types from them as well,’says Jim Austin, an industry analyst.With the major supermarket brands such as Tesco, J Sainsbury and Asda already offering financial services, credit cards, own-label clothing, mobile phones, and cut-price electrical goods including computers, Austin believes that the supermarkets’diversification is set to continue.‘The UK retail food market is saturated, so their only real prospect of growth is either to enter foreign markets or diversify into new markets at home..’Tesco and J Sainsbury have done both. Having already bought foreign subsidiaries, both large supermarket chains have set up their own banks in order to offer customers financial services such as personal loans, mortgages and savings accounts.Together, the two new banks took over ￡2bn of customer deposits within the first year of trading. ‘They are winning business by国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 13 页（共14页）using a lower cost base to offer their customers better interest rates on savings than traditional banks,’ says Austin.However, there are question marks over long-term profitability. The traditional providers say there is bound to come a point when the new banks will eventually want to widen margins and boost profits. ‘When they start to raise prices, they might create bad publicity, which could hurt their brand,’ says one observer. ‘How will a major supermarket react, for instance, when it is faced with having to repossess a regular shopper’s home?’Shoppers, however, do not share these fears. A recent survey of 1,000 people by brand consultants Cook & Pearson concludes that shoppers will continue to buy a wider range of goods and services from supermarkets. Many people said that they would be prepared to buy a supermarket own-label car or even a house from a supermarket-branded estate agent. Interest was also shown in combining a food shopping trip with a visit to a supermarket dentist.Loyalty schemes are another incentive for customers. ‘Most supermarkets now offer bonus points with every purchase. These points add up to free air miles or cash discounts, so it really pays to stay loyal to the国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 14 页（共14页）brand in all its diversified forms,’ says Austin. （）6 Why are the large UK supermarket chains diversifying? _____________.A. Because the retail food marketin the UK has been occupiedby foreign companies.B. Because the retail food marketin the UK is saturated.C. Because the retail food marketin the UK is quite small.D. Because diversification intonew markets can promote thegrowth of the retail foodmarket in the UK.（）7 How are the supermarkets able toattract business in the bankingsector? ____________.A. Because they can offer moreservices.B. Because they can offer morevarieties of commodities.C. Because they can offer betterinterest rates.D. Because they can offer free carparking for customers.（）8 What are the risks involved with brandstretching? _________________.A. There may come a point whenproviders will want to raise prices.B. There may come a point when国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 15 页（共14页）国际商务英语等级考试（中级）试卷第 16 页（共14页）providers lose all their banking business. C. There may come a point when customers lose their confidence in the banking sector. D. All the UK large supermarkets will have to close all their banking business. （）9 How do the large UK supermarketchains encourage brand loyalty? ___________. A. By offering free samples of commodities. B. By offering a wide range of goods and services. C. By offering convenient banking services. D. By offering loyalty schemes like bonus points. （）10 The headline “Banking on a brand ” means ______________.

GMAT考试内容前后大对比

经过2012年GMAT考试改革之后，GMAT考试内容变动很大，令2012年前后备考的很多考生陷入“窘境”。

那么大家对于GMAT考试内容的变动有大概了解吗?当然，当时的考生应该都很清楚，毕竟是考试的直接参与者，不过新手们也知道GMAT考试科目内容上的变动吗?真的变难了吗?一、2012年GMAT考试内容前后对比GMAT考试在2012年6月的重大改革，是在GMAT考试基础上删掉一篇issue写作，加入名为“综合分析推理创新”的部分。

详情如下：作文：Argument一篇，30分钟，一篇，没变作文：Issue一篇，30分钟，被取消了数学37题，75分钟，37题，没变语文41题，75分钟，41题，没变综合推理，12题，30分钟，新加部分二、2012年GMAT考试科目的难度变化1、最大变化科目。

1)GMAT写作。

这次改革后取消了GMAT写作中的Issue，保留了Argument。

Issue是写作里面比较难的，它需要我们自身建立观点，并且对观点进行写作，包括整体写作方式和风格都需要很长时间练习，Issue 部分没有了，意味着GMAT写作变得更简单。

而Argument只要我们对现有观点进行反驳，找到里面比较弱的问题进行论证、反驳就可以了。

2)GMAT综合推理(简称IR)。

与之前GMAC介绍的一样，IR部分共有12个大题，四个题型，分别是二元推理，图表解析，表格分析和多源推理。

值得注意的是，IR部分同一道大题底下只要有一道小题做错，整道大题不给分。

总体难度相比于OG要低，但阅读量较大。

其中二元推理是IR中难度较大的一种，而且占的题量也较多。

建议复习的时候要多做OG和prep相关题，深刻理解二元推理的套路。

对于剩下的三种题型，难度并不大，主要的问题可能是阅读速度。

尤其是多源信息推理题中，需要利用题干迅速定位文章中相关的数据或者信息。

2、小幅变化科目。

1)GMAT数学。

数学的难度总体有略微变大的趋势，题目中的陷阱很多，得51分的难度很大。

正确使用gmat考试模考软件Prep

正确使用gmat考试模考软件Prep模考软件gmatprep，在gmat考试备考过程中，发挥着重要的作用!在准备阶段，考生们可以依靠这个软件，大体判断下自己的水平，知晓自己的缺点，以便能拿到更理想的gmat考试分数!下面是小编精心整理的正确使用gmat考试模考软件prep，欢迎大家借鉴。

1、gmatprep是什么gmat考试的难度很大程度上来自其独特的考试安排和机制。

紧张的时间安排、答题后无法返回检查、根据解题情况自适应*调整后续题目难度，这些考试机制都给gmat增加了许多额外的压力和难度。

而这些内容，如果只是平时做题，考生完全没有机会体会到。

哪怕在备考中练习做得再好，实战中也很容易因为不适应而很难拿到理想的gmat考试分数。

因此，为了给广大考生练习模考的机会，gmat官方免费提供了gmat模考软件gmatprep，其界面与真实考试完全相同。

2、gmatprep的版本差异gmatprep目前主要有prep07，prep08和prep2012三个版本。

2007,2008年先后破解出两个版本，之前一般称为旧prep和新prep。

为了避免日后再次推出新版本时称谓混乱，现在统一改称prep07版和prep08版。

prep07是2007年5月的破解版本。

prep08是2008年7月以后的破解版本。

2012年破译出prep2012版，但12版目前只有第一套。

3、gmatprep如何使用在练习prep的题目之前最好将og做2-3编，效果最佳。

1、prep07如果大家前期练习已经把og做了3遍(如果没有足够的时间，可以做两遍)，就可以开始prep07的练习了。

把在prep07中做错的题与og或者之前做错的题进行归纳和比对。

还有一些题目之前做错了，现在依然错。

这就是我们需要提高的地方。

我们要将这些内容进行整理。

2、用prep08的软件进行模考在复习的过程中，我们已经对对整体的资料进行了复习，包括gmat数学、gmat语文和gmat写作。

gmat focus edition 分数

gmat focus edition 分数GMAT是国际公认的商业管理研究生入学考试，由美国教育测试服务中心（ETS）开发和管理。

Different from mobile phones,Mindle ______A. has a much more friendly screenB. can work in the absence of electricityC. doesn’t involve regular feesD. is wireless and can be used anywhere(C)Small discoveries in Indonesia are causing a stir in the science world .Researchers have unearthed (挖掘)tiny bones that they believe belong to an entirely new human species .If that’s true ,it will change how we think about our ancestors .Clues that the little people may have lived long ago were first revealed last year in the scientific journal Nature .Scientists said that they had found the bones of a three-foot-tall female on the island of Flores, in Indonesia .When they looked more closely ,they saw that the nearly complete skeleton(骨骼)belonged to a full-grown adult. Researchers named her Hobbit,after the tiny heroes of the Lord of the Rings books.Now the team is saying it has unearthed even more pieces of the puzzle ,including a jawbone and parts of arms ,legs and hands from several individuals, as well as stone tools .They reported their find in Nature this month. “The new evidence makes it very clear that these people are a new species ,distinct from modern humans,”Peter Brown, a scientist on the team ,said. They named these ancient humans Homo floresiensis.Brown says that these little people lived as recently as 12,000 years ago.If Homo floresiensis was a different species from modern humans, that would make our family tree bigger than we knew. It means, says Brown, that “until recently ,a relative shared the planet with us. ”Many scientists think a new species is unlikely .Some argue that the bones must have belonged to modern humans whose small size was the result of a genetic problem.Daniel E. Lieberman,a scientist at Harvard University,thinks that the debate over the discovery is healthy. He believes that the questions and arguments raised by critics will help us learn more about these unusual skeletons.”Disagreement is an important part of the scientific process,”Lieberman said.“ As far as I’m concerned,the story’s only just begun. ”72. Researchers name the skeleton Hobbit because ______A. it is a figure described in the Lord of the RingsB. it resembles the tiny heroes in a set of booksC. it proves to be a full-grown adultD. it belongs to an ancient human species73. Small discoveries in Indonesia are important because _____A. they are revealed in the scientific journal NatureB. they are made by Peter Brown ,a famous scientistC. they are about ancestors of modern humansD. they might provide new evidence for human study74. According to Daniel E.Lieberman ________A. Homo floresiensis doesn’t existB. Disagreement leads to further researchC. The investigation hasn’t begun yetD. Our family tree is bigger than we knew75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Comparison between Different PeoplesB. Arguments over Human OriginC. Discovery of a Possible New Human SpeciesD. History of Indonesian People(D)Rail passengers are being forced to pay thousands of pounds more in fares as a result of poor advice from the national telephone helpline and individual stations, a consumer organisation reveals today .Research by Which? found that in some cases passengers are being charged almost double the cheapest price because of errors made by staff .Which? asked 25 questions of both station staff and the National Rail Enquiries (NRES) helpline.Only half of the 50 questions were answered correctly. If customers had followed all the advice given ,they would have been ￡1,263.60 worse off .Bad advice was given for the cheapest fare for a single journey between London and Grantham .For a ticket bought on the day of travel,both NRES and a King’s Cross station clerk quoted GNER’s ￡44.50 fare ,ignoring a Hull Trains service which leaves 10 minutes earlier and costs just ￡20.Some of the most costly misinformation was given for journeys where season tickets should have been recommended .Passengers making a return journey between Swindon and Penzance twice in a week could buy a ticket from one company for ￡70 which would cover all the travel. But both NRES and station staff quoted ￡67 for each journey, making ￡134.However, the NRES website proved to be a much more reliable source of information .Which ? also checked “the earlier you book, the cheaper the ticket” claims by five companies and found this was not always the case .On some services, prices went up and down at random .Ithiel Mogridge,52,gave one example of poor advice :”Last Christmas I found my brother a ticket on the to travel from Blackburn to Yate. While the direct route was ￡51, this one involved a change in Newport and cost just ￡21. I emailed the details to him and his partner.They went to Blackburn station ,where the clerk insisted the fare was ￡51.”Malcolm Coles, editor of ,said :”Staff training needs to be improved.In the meantime ,we’ve designed a checklist, available at / railadvice. “76.
