考的不理想，710 是个尴尬的分数。主要是数学，本来是超强，最最无需担心的。 考试时太紧张，脑子空白， 有道做过的题竟然作不出来！越急越乱，还有一半题的时候竟然只剩不到20分钟，平时都是做完了的。
教训： 考试一定平常心。谢谢CD，从这里得到宝贵的复习经验和资料。

The following appeared as part of an annual report sent to stockholders by Olympic Foods, a processor of frozen foods.“Over
time, the costs of processing go down because as organizations learn
how to do things better, they become more efficient. In color film
processing, for example, the cost of a 3-by-5-inch print fell from 50
cents for five-day service in 1970 to 20 cents for one-day service in
1984. The same principle applies to the processing of food. And since
Olympic Foods will soon celebrate its twenty-fifth birthday, we can
expect that our long experience will enable us to minimize costs and
thus maximize profits.”

Employers can get the best perfomance from employees by praising what they do well rather than criticizing what they do badly.

地球上的bacteria丰富多样，其中有些可能会成为未来研制医药的antibiotics。然而，这些bacteria正面临着人类活动使其灭绝的危
险。一些生物学家声称，由于bacteria
无处不在，因此其灭绝的可能性非常小。但作者认为，有两种方式会影响bacteria的生存，一种是某些bacteria
是依附与一些更高等的生物，而人类的活动正使这些高等生物灭绝。另外一种方式是人类活动直接影响了一些bacteria赖以生存的独特自然环境，如热带雨
林, 有一种hot springs, 因此，需要采取措施防止bacteria的灭绝。"

ps: hot springs is not "热带雨林". It is the name of a kind of bacteria that is cited as an example  by the article.
