GRE,全稱Graduate Record Examination,中文名稱為美國(guó)研究生入學(xué)考試,適用于除法律與商業(yè)外的各專業(yè)。由美國(guó)教育考試服務(wù)處(Educational Testing Service,簡(jiǎn)稱ETS)主辦,GRE是美國(guó)、加拿大的大學(xué)各類研究生院(除管理類學(xué)院,法學(xué)院)要求申請(qǐng)者所必須具備的一個(gè)考試成績(jī),也是教授對(duì)申請(qǐng)者是否授予獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金所依據(jù)的最重要的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。 另有,Generic Routing Encapsulation(通用路由封裝)也簡(jiǎn)稱GRE。
    In harsh
    climates people bundle up, while in hot, humid climates they go with few clothes. In developed
    nations people dress for indoor work and their skin appears pink and supple, while in agrarian
    cultures people dress for outdoor work and appear weather-beaten.
    I turn next to the way people act. The habits, rituals and lifestyles of a culture often do
    provide accurate signals about its values. For instance, a society characterized by
    over-consumption is clearly one that values comfort and convenience over a healthy
    environment. And, a society whose members behave in a genteel, respectful, and courteous
    manner toward one another is one which values human dignity, while a society of people who
    act in a hateful manner toward others clearly places a low value on respect for others and on
    tolerance of other people's opinions and beliefs. In other respects, however, the way people
    behave can belie their attitudes and values. For instance, a society whose members tend to
    work long hours might appear to place a high value on work for its own sake, when in reality
    these work habits might be born of financial necessity for these people, who would prefer more
    leisure time if they could afford it.
    Finally, the statement overlooks a crucial distinction between free societies and oppressed
    ones. Free societies, such as contemporary America, are characterized by a panoply of rituals,
    116
    behaviors, and manners of dress among its members. Such diversity in appearances surely
    indicates a society that places a high value on individual freedoms and cultural diversity.
    Accordingly, it might seem that a society whose members share similar rituals, ways of
    dressing, and public behaviors places a low value on individual freedoms and cultural diversity. 感謝您閱讀《GRE作文范文大全(77) 》一文,出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)(liuxue86.com)編輯部希望本文能幫助到您。
