V erbal：阅读没怎么遇到JJ，高频一个也木有，只有海豚还是大象玩红球那个，感觉和以前看到的还不太一样，最后选是哪个也不记得了- -说说还记得的，1.一种snowshoe hare，楼主看的时候叫它雪兔了，它们的population循环很regular，而且可以很快减少和增加，换言之波动比较大（有题问这种雪兔和其他动物有什么区别，但是选项有点模糊，答案在第一段），然后科学家就想解释这一现象，说是新生的雪兔比较容易受到影响（这点没考到），因为当“兔口”增加时就营养不良了，兔子越多粮食越少然后兔子就开始减少了嘛，另外还有一个原因是它们的捕食者，具体怎么说的忘记了，但是有题。

有一句话记得比较清楚，The high mobility of predator render the synchon of different area possible 大体是这个意思（有题）2. supernova 光比比想象的要弱，两个原因一是dust，会吸收蓝光，只留下红的，而且如果dust不是均匀分布的造成的结果也很难讲（有题），还有一个原因是。

忘了。

想起来再说3. 第二个V的长阅读（楼主觉得之前的V做的超烂，然后第二个V的填空开始好简单，就慌了直到看到它才安心啊啊啊）一个叫knight的公会组织，人数突然减少了，而且这之后其他的组织就变得保守了（大概），第二段分析人数为什么减少，一个原因说是employer用过extralegal的手段打压他们，但作者反驳说不对，因为当时其他组织还thrive着；第二个原因是内部的，因为skilled和unskilled有矛盾，还有领导和群众也有矛盾，highlight了一个organizer问他们怎么着了我选的是他们不亲民了- -4 一个逻辑说一个减少矿难的措施实施在某一年了，然后作者认为没用，因为从那一年开始地下采矿变成地上了，which更安全，所以死亡率才减少的。

2012年GRE考试机经部分真题（回忆版）总体印象，换题库了。

考前看JJ就由此感，今天考完更加确信，基本没看到机经，或许是我看的少吧1」ssue，真的高频啊，universities or colleges should require all stude nts to study abroad for at least one semester 。

大意女口此。

昨晚入睡前在床上拿这个联系一下，今天就考到了。

晕。

2。

argument，—个公司的on-the-job accident 比旁边某某公司多了百分之三十。

Experts say the major*** is fatigure and sleep depravite blahblahblah..…没什么好说的。

顺便提一句，本人也是没怎么写作文。

临场发挥。

所以碰到那个issue 真的幸运。

3。

填空：记得不多，ubiquity un iqitous 都考到了。

3.1 一种wide-ranging 的动物还是植物在边远地区的poplulation is subject to less （--） and more variable con disti ons tha n otherareas ...... 从而得出结论是（----）.我选的第一个空为favorable 第二空为lower at the prephery3.2研究人员在一个社会理发现很多的cult和什么东东（记不住了总之和宗教有关），从而得出结论这个社会宗教是（--）我选无处不在的ubiquitous.3.3 —个作者的作品不应该继续被认为是（--）,因为他最近的作品with obscurity 什么的和（--）language 。

第一个空我选的是accessible,第二个空选的是rarefy.非常不确定我的复述和我的答案是否真确。

3.4学校怎么怎么着年轻的学生们不再（--），他们开始重回tradition和什么东东，我选的是co ntumacity 或是他的形容词。

2012年12月15日GRE机经分享Issue是 people should take risky action only if they have fully considered the consequences.Argument是建议G college保留all female student tradition。

虽然之前在老师中的调研显示，大多数老师支持coeducation，认为可以吸引更多学生，但一个针对300学生的survey显示学生支持保留这个tradition，一个针对100个校友的survey表示校友也这么觉得。

因此，如果all-female可以让校风变正，而且能让校友捐更多钱。

然后我的顺序是VQVQV，感觉考的都是我没复习的地方(这次是比基尼考)，但加试反而都是背过的要你命3000...总体来说，V感觉单词不难，但是句子很难理解。

有一题好像是某个历史作者一直关注(preoccupation)当时的生活细节，而__了一个更广大的主旨。

有个选项是obviate。

有一个三空题是当地的museum修的很赞(我选了imposing)，因为体现了大气璀璨的contemporary cultrue，然后contemporary art又怎样怎样的阅读有一篇是对一个女的评价，有主旨题，很明显的。

有一篇讲某地考古遗迹，大概说是当地楼有两层，原来学者以为人挺多的，但一个人发现二楼的hearth很少一楼的很多。

然后第二段又转到之前学者的发现。

短阅读，但是有三四个题。

有一篇讲化石的，有两种方法，一个是看沉积，一个是从生物角度分析。

第二段讲沉积方法的不足，被strom弄乱被海水弄乱被动物发掘弄乱地层什么的(有细节题);第三段讲生物分析的不足，但提到沉积方法可以辅助解决这个不足(有细节题)。

长阅读，三四个题。

数学不难，但是不知道哪里出错了木有满分……有一题是如果圆的周长为p那么面积是多少然后有考到梯形的面积计算方法有一题是一个坐标轴里有一个圆，圆心是0点，周长是5，然后有一条斜率是1/2的过圆心的直线，问直线和圆的交点的坐标。

Colleges and universities should require their students to spend at least one semester studying in a foreign country.Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the recommendation and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, describe specific circumstances in which adopting the recommendation would or would not be advantageous and explain how these examples shape your position.argument:The following is a recommendation from the personnel director to the president of Acme Publishing Company.“Many other companies have recently stated that having their employees take the Easy Read Speed-Reading Course has greatly improved productivity. One graduate of the course was able to read a 500-page report in only two hours; another graduate rose from an assistant manager to vice president of the company in under a year.Obviously, the faster you can read, the more information you can absorb in a single workday. Moreover, Easy Read would cost Acme only $500 per employee—a small price to pay when you consider the benefits. Included in this fee is a three-week seminar in Spruce City and a lifelong subscription to the Easy Read newsletter. Clearly, Acme would benefit greatly by requiring all of our employees to take the Easy Read course.”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.相关推荐：GRE考试官方报名入口。

二楼：机经扫盲&如何使用机经机经，应该说是抓住了ETS在选取题号的时候不能做到绝对的等概率分布的漏洞而形成的。

一个随机抽取题库题目的系统，应该是要保证每个题目抽到的概率大致相等，但实际上在相近的时间段之内ETS抽取的题目具有相当高的重复率。

而且在高频段回头率高的很是可观，基本上前40题出现的频率总和就已经超过了二分之一、感恩于前辈机经的示范，于是大家在签订了保密协定之后也都心照不宣的公开了题号，前人种树，后人乘凉。

这就形成了现在的“机经”。

要说在GRE写作中，ETS是大大方方的把全部题目都公布了出来的，但是要把这些题目都写一遍显然是不太现实的，所以只能挑选其中的一些题目练习，但是应该挑选哪一些题目练习呢？当然最好是考试中最有可能出现的题目了，这个时候就是机经派上用场的时候了，它可以告诉你什么题目是出现频率是最高的。

经过无数前辈的亲身经历证明这个策略还是及其有效的，大部分人只要不是人品太差都可以碰到至少一道自己写过的题目。

当然机经这个东西也不能全信，虽然有了机经大家考到写过的题目的概率大大提高，但是总还是有一部分比例的考友没能碰到的，所以最重要的的还是要提高自己的写作实力，机经只是提高考试分数的策略之一而已。

一般来说issue的机经会比较的有用，而argu的机经则不是那么的集中，倒不是因为issue 高频集中一些，而是因为issue是二选一，比方说一个写过高频前40的人在一选一的考试中碰到写过的题目的概率是50％，那么在二选一的issue中碰到写过的题的概率就是75％，这个频率就是相当可观了。

而argu的机经从人民群众的反映来看用处不大，所以argu的提纲最好是全部写出来，这样会保险一点点。

这里还有一个需要提醒的地方，就是刚开始的时候不要一上来就把最高频写了（比方说高频前10），因为最高频是在考试中很有可能碰到的题目，不如等中后期练的比较熟练了之后再来写，这样考试中碰到了也会更有把握一些。

2012年11月13日Maryland GRE机经以下是小编与大家分享的2012年11月1日新加坡GRE机经，回顾复习往年的真题是一个提高成绩的好方法，需要的同学赶快下载吧。

2012年11月13号早上八点考的，题目是QVQVQ, 人品爆发了一下。

V 144 , Q 163, 想申请CS硕士。

我提到的一些内容虽然是前人已经提过的，我想应该对后人也有帮助吧，至少能再次确认这个题目的频率和目前还没换题库。

自己感受很深的一点是，凡是机经回忆的好的，基本上都是考的很好的大牛，考的烂了自然也就回忆不起来什么内容了，我这次verbal考的很低，就很难回忆起来。

数学倒是回忆起来不少。

Issue是第115题:Government officials should rely on their own judgment rather than unquestioningly carry out the will of the people whom they serve.Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.Argument是第73题:The following appeared on the Mozart School of Music Web site."The Mozart School of Music should be the first choice for parents considering enrolling their child in music lessons. First of all, the Mozart School welcomes youngsters at all ability and age levels; there is no audition to attend the school. Second, the school offers instruction in nearly all musical instruments as well a wide range of styles and genres from classical to rock. Third, the faculty includes some of the most distinguished musicians in the area. Finally, many Mozart graduates have gone on to become well-known and highly paid professional musicians."Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptionsof 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.verbal 记住的只有两个：一篇阅读，其中common 选择意思最接近的替代词，其实就是common的近义词吧，具体选项也记不清了，建议好好研究一下Merriam-Webster词典上的解释准备一下。

2012.10.28托福写作机经：新托福写作真题考试日期：2012.10.28Task 1INTEGRAED金星上出现黄光（Ashen Light）的原因阅读文章要点：1. 由于太阳的紫外线照射，氧原子变成氧分子，这个过程生成黄光；2. 闪电的原因；3. 由于望远镜的问题或者地方天气不同看见的幻像。

听力逐一反驳：1. 这个过程生产的是绿光，不是黄光；2. 闪电常常发生在白天，晚上很少发生，金星上有Day side和Night side, 在Night side也观察到了黄光。

3. 不同的人，在不同的地方用不同的仪器在相同的时间都看见了，因此不是幻像。

Task 2 INDEPENDENT 独立写作话题类别生活类考题文字：Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?The government and corporation should share all their scientific discoveries with other countries in the world.Please use specific details and examples to support your opinion.本次写作考试点评：本次新托福考试完全重复2012年2月3日北美考题。

写作总体来说难度较大，综合写作考到较难的天文学类话题，文章涉及到很多生词，教师在课堂中应多注意对分类词汇背诵的强调，关于此类题材文章，TPO里有一篇讲通古斯大爆炸的文章，建议教师可以找来课堂上给学生讲解；独立写作考题中出现了比较绝对的词”all”, 因此我们在指导学生审题的时候要引导他们此类考题不要持完全赞同的立场。

在主体段布局时仍旧可以采用三段式，每段给出一个理由，论证方式以举例和因果为主。

教师在教学时应注意对最近2, 3年中考题的收集以及思路的拓展，每个大类的题目可以帮学生归纳些理由和观点。
