106．The following appeared as part of an article in the book section of a newspaper.
“Currently more and more books are becoming available in electronic form — either free-of-charge on the Internet or for a very low price-per-book on compact disc.* Thus literary classics are likely to be read more widely than ever before. People who couldn’t have purchased these works at bookstore prices will now be able to readthem for little or no money; similarly, people who find it inconvenient to visit libraries and wait for books to be returned by other patrons will now have access to whatever classic they choose from their home or work computers. This increase in access to literary classics will radically affect the public taste in reading, creating a far more sophisticated and learned reading audience than has ever existed before.”
*A “compact disc” is a small portable disc capable of storing relatively large amounts of data that can be read by a computer.
113．The following appeared in a memorandum written by the assistant manager of a store that sells gourmet food items from various countries.
“A local wine store made an interesting discovery last month: it sold more French than Italian wine on days when it played recordings of French accordion music, but it sold more Italian than French wine on days when Italian songs were played. Therefore, I recommend that we put food specialties from one particular country on sale for a week at a time and play only music from that country while the sale is going on. By this means we will increase our profits in the same way that the wine store did, and we will be able to predict more precisely what items we should stock at any given time.”
新增黃金題目：
一．Analysis of Issue Questions
33. “人們只愿意接受這樣的領導：他能完成他要求其他人完成的任務。”
92. “政府應該建立規(guī)則減少或消滅環(huán)境中可疑的健康危害，哪怕關于這些健康危害的科學研究還不完全或者有矛盾。”
100. “如果一個國家要確保它的經(jīng)濟成功，它必須保持有高度競爭力的教育系統(tǒng)，在其中學生們相互競爭，還和國外的學生進行競爭。”
115. “技術最終分離疏遠了人們而不是把他們聚在一起。”
二．Analysis of Argument Questions
92. 當?shù)貓蠹埖纳缯摚?BR> 過去的10年里，桔類水果的價格實際上上升了。11年前，Megamart每個檸檬要價5分，現(xiàn)在一般要價為30分一個。過去11年只有一年不適合桔類水果生長。顯然，柑桔種植者應該對桔類水果價格過度上漲負責。為防止他們繼續(xù)哄抬價格規(guī)范價格規(guī)定很有必要。
95. 地方報紙的商業(yè)版：
Hippocrene鉛管供應商在一度為Cumquat咖啡店的地方開了一家直銷店。。Hippocrene現(xiàn)在相當?shù)某晒Γ驗樗麄冋媱澰谂R近城市開一家大的直銷店。但是Cumquat咖啡店在搬到新地址一年后發(fā)現(xiàn)它的業(yè)務量比前一年有所下降。很明顯，它的前一個地址是一個更好的商務地址，Cumquat咖啡店做出搬遷決定是錯誤的。
97. 電腦雜志的文章：
一年前Apex制造公司給它的經(jīng)理們在家買了電腦，并支付電話費，這樣他們就可以在工作時間以外從家里連接到Apex的電腦和數(shù)據(jù)文件。從去年開始，Apex的生產(chǎn)能力增長了15%。其他公司可以借鑒Apex的成功，提供家用電腦和到公司資源的鏈接，雇員會在家里加班并提高公司利潤。
106. 報紙的圖書版的文章：
現(xiàn)在越來越多的書有了電子版，或者放在網(wǎng)上免費獲得，或者在光盤上以很低的價格出售。因此文學經(jīng)典可以得到比以前更廣泛的閱讀。不能以書店價格購買這些書的人現(xiàn)在可以用很少的錢或者不花錢來閱讀他們。類似的，覺得去圖書館或者等待其他人還書不方便的人現(xiàn)在可以通過家里或者工作用的電腦得到他想要的任何名著。這和文學名著接觸的增長將從根本上影響公眾的閱讀品味，塑造比以前更成熟更博學的讀者。
113. 銷售各國美食的一家商店的副經(jīng)理的備忘錄：
一家本地的葡萄酒店上個月發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個有趣的事實：它在播放法國的手風琴音樂時賣的法國酒就比意大利酒多；而它播放意大利歌曲時意大利酒就賣的比法國酒多。我建議我們每周出售從一個特定國家來的食品，并同時播放且只播放那個國家的音樂。通過這種方法我們將和那家葡萄酒店一樣提高我們的利潤。而且我們將能夠在任何時候都更準確地預測我們該儲存的貨物。
