2010.9.1——9.13 GMAT作文機(jī)經(jīng) AA篇
AA2 The following editorial appeared in the Elm City paper.
“The construction last year of a shopping mall in downtown Oak City was a mistake. Since the mall has opened, a number of local businesses have closed, and the downtown area suffers from an acute parking shortage, and arrests for crime and vagrancy have increased in the nearby Oak City Park. Elm City should pay attention to the example of the Oak City mall and deny the application to build a shopping mall in Elm City.”
AA3 The following appeared as part of a memorandum from the loan department of the Frostbite National Bank.
“We should not approve the business loan application of the local group that wants to open a franchise outlet for the Kool Kone chain of ice cream parlors. Frostbite is known for its cold winters, and cold weather can mean slow ice cream sales. For example, even though Frostbite is a town of 10,000 people, it has only one ice cream spot — the Frigid Cow. Despite the lack of competition, the Frigid Cow’s net revenues fell by 10 percent last winter.”
AA4 說一個公司 因?yàn)樗麄儸F(xiàn)在的常量 沒有達(dá)到full producion capability ， 所以任何的delay of production 可以引起 產(chǎn)品demand上升，從而讓消費(fèi)者認(rèn)為我們的產(chǎn)品 很rare and roxic(好像這么拼， 不知道什么意思 ，不過對寫作沒有什么影響，知道rare就好了)，making 他們更有名什么的。 所以該公司人認(rèn)為，在三年內(nèi) 就可以倚靠這個方案 成為這個市場的老大
提綱：
1. delay in production and distribution不會increase demand，反而影響公司reputation，而且consumer可以買別的公司的beer;
2. 要做行業(yè)老大不只是great taste和popularity就搞得定的， 還要看別的因素;
3. 這個consultant是從哪里搞來的數(shù)據(jù)證明他的假設(shè)和推論的，簡直就是胡搞
AA5 The following appeared in a memorandum from the head of a human resources department at a major automobile manufacturing company to the company's managers:“Studies have found that employees of not-for-profit organizations and charities are often more highly motivated than employees of for-profit corporations to perform well at work when their performance is not being monitored or evaluated. Interviews with employees of not-for-profit organizations suggest that the reason for their greater motivation is the belief that their work helps to improve society. Because they believe in the importance of their work, they have personal reasons to perform well, even when no financial reward is present. Thus, if our corporation began donating a significant portion of its profits to humanitarian causes, our employees’ motivation and productivity would increase substantially and our overall profits would increase as well.”
AA6 The following appeared as part of an article in a computer magazine.
A year ago Apex Manufacturing bought its managers computers for their homes and paid for telephone connections so that the managers could access Apex computers and data files from home after normal business hours. Since last year, productivity at Apex has increased by 15 percent. Other companies can learn from the success at Apex: given home computers and access to company resources, employees will work additional hours at home and thereby increase company profits issue
