2016年4月16日GRE机经分享
作文机经
Issue：
Critical judgment of work in any given field has little value unless it comes from someone who is an expert in that field.
可抓住“field”从不同领域展开全文，也可分支持、反对两大视角思考分论点。从全文展开而言，issue考察对复杂问题的认识(complexity of ideas)和批判性思维(critical thinking)，因此，正文首段可先支持作者观点，承认在一些领域专家判断更有价值，如专业领域。接下来，可考虑命题是否在其他领域有不同情况，由此形成其他段落分论点。如，大众娱乐面向普通民众，满足普遍需求，因此有价值的评判不仅来自于专家，也可来自于普通人。另外，跨学科(interdisciplinary study)是issue高频素材，可应用于此题，形成正文第三段分论点。跨学科的普及使得不仅本领域专家建议重要，其他领域专家建议也有价值。从段落展开而言，根据每段分论点，结合具体的理由或例子展开论述。
Argument：
The following appeared in a letter from the owner of the Sunnyside Towers apartment complex to its manager.
"One month ago, all the showerheads in the first three buildings of the Sunnyside Towers complex were modified to restrict maximum water flow to one-third of what it used to be. Although actual readings of water usage before and after the adjustment are not yet available, the change will obviously result in a considerable savings for Sunnyside Corporation, since the corporation must pay for water each month. Except for a few complaints about low water pressure, no problems with showers have been reported since the adjustment. Clearly, modifying showerheads to restrict water flow throughout all twelve buildings in the Sunnyside Towers complex will increase our profits further."
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.
典型题目，思路清晰。第二句话为论断(stated assumptions)，调节水量是否省水尚不可知，作者便断言必将节水省钱，缺乏论证。第三句抱怨(complaints)为证词推理，抱怨少并不代表大家对调节水量满意。最后一句，由前三栋楼推广至全部十二栋楼，为类比推理，假设其他九栋楼的用水情况和前三栋相似。针对每一步推理，逐段展开，具体分析假设、反例。另根据题目要求，要求作者补充和反例相关的证据加强论证。

阅读机经
A divide between aesthetic and technical considerations has played a crucial role in mapmaking and cartographic scholarship. Since nineteenth century cartographers, for instance, understood themselves as technicians who did not care about visual effects, while others saw themselves as landscape painters. That dichotomy structured the discipline of the history of cartography. Until the 1980s, in what Blakemore and Harley called “the Old is Beautiful Paradigm,” scholars largely focused on maps made before 1800, marveling at their beauty and sometimes regretting the decline of the pre-technical age. Early mapmaking was considered art while modern cartography was located within the realm of engineering utility. Alpers, however, has argued that this boundary would have puzzled mapmakers in the seventeenth century, because they considered themselves to be visual engineers.
1. According to the passage, Alpers would say that the assumptions underlying the “paradigm” were
A. inconsistent with the way some mapmakers prior to 1800 understand their own work
B. dependent on a seventeenth-century conception of mapmaking visual engineering
C. unconcerned with the difference between the aesthetic and technical questions of mapmaking
D. insensitive to divisions among cartographers working in the period after 1800
E. supported by the demonstrable technical superiority of mapmaking made after 1800
2. It can be inferred from the passage that, beginning in the 1980s, historians of cartography
A. placed greater emphasis on the beauty of maps made after 1800
B. expanded their range of study to include more material created after 1800
C. grew more sensitive to the way mapmakers prior to 1800 conceived of their work
D. came to see the visual details of maps as aesthetic objects rather than practical cartographic aids
E. reduced the attention they paid to the technical aspects of mapmaking
答案：A B
