issue：
108 "In many countries it is now possible to turn on the television and view government at work. Watching these proceedings can help people understand the issues that affect their lives. The more kinds of government proceedings—trials, debates, meetings, etc—that are televised, the more society will benefit."

The following is a memorandum from the business manager of WLSS television station. “Over the past year, our late-night news program has devoted increasingly more time to covering national news and less time to covering weather and local news. During the same time period, most of the complaints we received from viewers were concerned with the station’s coverage of weather and local news. In addition, several local businesses that used to run advertisements during our late-night news program have just cancelled their advertising contracts with us. Therefore, in order to attract more viewers to our news programs and to avoid losing any further advertising revenues, we should expand the coverage of weather and local news on all our news programs."

The following is a letter from an editor at Liber Publishing Company to the company’s president. “In recent years, Liber has unfortunately moved away from its original mission: to publish the works of regional small-town authors instead of those of big-city authors. Just last year, 90 percent of the novels we published were written by authors who maintain a residence in a big city. Although this change must have been intended to increase profits, it has obviously backfired, because Liber is now in serious financial trouble. The only way to address this problem is to return to our original mission. If we return to publishing only the works of regional small-town authors, our financial troubles will soon be resolved."

issue：173 "Originality does not mean thinking something that was never thought before; it means putting old ideas together in new ways."
195"The goal of politics should not be the pursuit of an ideal, but rather the search for common ground and reasonable consensus."
Argument：1，The following appeared in a memorandum written by the vice president of Nature’s Way, a chain of stores selling health food and other health-related products.
"Previous experience has shown that our stores are most profitable in areas where residents are highly concerned with leading healthy lives. We should therefore build our next new store in Plainsville, which has many such residents. Plainsville merchants report that sales of running shoes and exercise clothing are at all-time highs. The local health club, which nearly closed five years ago due to lack of business, has more members than ever, and the weight training and aerobics classes are always full. We can even anticipate a new generation of customers: Plainsville’s schoolchildren are required to participate in a ’fitness for life’ program, which emphasizes the benefits of regular exercise at an early age."

argument 241 总高频argument第二十九
"When XYZ lays off employees, it pays Delany Personnel Firm to offer those employees assistance in creating resumès and developing interviewing skills, if they so desire. Laid-off employees have benefited greatly from Delany’s services: last year those who used Delany found jobs much more quickly than did those who did not. Recently, it has been proposed that we use the less-expensive Walsh Personnel Firm in place of Delany. This would be a mistake because eight years ago, when XYZ was using Walsh, only half of the workers we laid off at that time found jobs within a year. Moreover, Delany is clearly superior, as evidenced by its bigger staff and larger number of branch offices. After all, last year Delany’s clients took an average of six months to find jobs, whereas Walsh’s clients took nine."
到选笔试地点的地方一定要小心，21道题过后就要小心看看那些页面上的内容了，不要错过一些必填的东西。。总之不要紧张，感觉试室很舒适，空调有点大，键盘很舒适，我个人感觉：只要不紧张，你会比你以前练习感觉更好，写的也会更多，因为你会无形中加快速度，但前提是选到你熟悉的题目。还有就是留3-4分钟检查单词、时态等低级错误。
祝大家一切顺利 !!
