8月20日更新：[attach]2766[/attach]
附件更新．
１）除了ＡＡ的更新之外，我把自己复习时候用的分类ＡＩ也一并放上了．
２）取消了用颜色标识频率．因为随着ＪＪ的丰富，频率超过三次或四次的题目越来越多，颜色标识起来很乱．
再叨叨两句吧．．．我昨天已经上过战场了，分数７６０，ＪＪ是用马甲发上来的．现在最大的担心就是作文，不知道考完多久才能查到作文的分呢？
我是在职复习，所以时间很紧．只是最后一周请了假在家里全天复习．昨天考完今天就回公司上班了．但是整理８月ＡＡ频率这件事情我既然开了头，就还是会有始有终地做完．从现在到８月底，我会尽量保证每天更新一次．
Good Luck!

| 7.28 8.6. 8.7. 8.8 | 关于8月到10月家具产品盈利，就要把原来的卖衣服的部门改成卖家具那个 72. The following appeared as part of a recommendation from the business manager of a department store. “Local clothing stores reported that their profits decreased, on average, for the three-month period between August 1 and October 31. Stores that sell products for the home reported that, on average, their profits increased during this same period. Clearly, consumers are choosing to buy products for their homes instead of clothing. To take advantage of this trend, we should reduce the size of our clothing departments and enlarge our home furnishings and household products departments.” | 72 | 27次 |
| 7.29 | 有一个卖衣服 的store,说一个卖disc的店最近店里进出的人数多了(increased foot traffic), disc老板赚够了钱退休,所以他们也要学dics店那样,把之前在newspaper上的广告改成用radio做广告. 124. The following appeared in a memorandum from the owner of Carlo’s Clothing to the staff. “Since Disc Depot, the music store on the next block, began a new radio advertising campaign last year, its business has grown dramatically, as evidenced by the large increase in foot traffic into the store. While the Disc Depot’s owners have apparently become wealthy enough to retire, profits at Carlo’s Clothing have remained stagnant for the past three years. In order to boost our sales and profits, we should therefore switch from newspaper advertising to frequent radio advertisements like those for Disc Depot.” | 124 | 20次 |
| 7.30 8.7. | 40. The following appeared as part of an article in a weekly newsmagazine. “The country of Sacchar can best solve its current trade deficit problem by lowering the price of sugar, its primary export. Such an action would make Sacchar better able to compete for markets with other sugar-exporting countries. The sale of Sacchar’s sugar abroad would increase, and this increase would substantially reduce Sacchar’s trade deficit.” | 40 | 29次 |
| 7.30 8.12. | one locatio導致more profit 所以應該關閉分公司且 centralization (我的猜测, 大概是第2题Apogee公司的事情) The following appeared in a memorandum from the business department of the Apogee Company. “When the Apogee Company had all its operations in one location, it was more profitable than it is today. Therefore, the Apogee Company should close down its field offices and conduct all its operations from a single location. Such centralization would improve profitability by cutting costs and helping the company maintain better supervision of all employees.” | 2 | 4次 |
| 7.30 8.6 8.11. | The following appeared as part of the business plan of the Capital Idea investment firm. “Across town in the Park Hill district, the Thespian Theater, Pizzazz Pizza, and the Niblick Golf Club have all had business increases within the past two years. Capital Idea should therefore invest in the Roxy Playhouse, the Slice-o’-Pizza, and the Divot Golf Club, three new businesses in the Irongate district. As a condition, we should require them to participate in a special program: Any customer who patronizes two of the businesses will receive a substantial discount at the third. By motivating customers to patronize all three, we will thus contribute to the profitability of each and maximize our return.” | 125 | 34次 |
| 7.30 | color film printing and Olympic foods | 1 | 31次 |
| 8.1 8.12. | 一个软件公司应该裁员 因为auto industry 采取这样的措施收益增加等等 Jetsam Software Inc 因為要cut budget 所以要仿照auto industry cut 25%的full time employees 換成 temporary employees....因為這樣 auto industry的profit有增加.... | 存疑 | |
| 8.2 8.7. 8.11. | AA 建议政府提高邮票的价钱 这样就能让SERVICES提高REVENUES 同时提高人们MORALE 42. The following appeared in the opinion section of a national newsmagazine. “To reverse the deterioration of the postal service, the government should raise the price of postage stamps. This solution will no doubt prove effective, since the price increase will generate larger revenues and will also reduce the volume of mail, thereby eliminating the strain on the existing system and contributing to improved morale.” | 42 | 41次 |
| 8.2 | 雇佣有信息技术的员工可以增加利润 | 存疑 | |
| 8.2 8.4 8.7 8.13. | manager说:一个健康中心去年建了个新游泳池, 而去年的usage提升了10%。因此, 为了提高the number of members and revenue,今年继续增加recreatinoal facilities，such as XXX,XXX,AND XXX, 会管用. 另外, 由于只有该中心在当地提供相关服务，所以会保持比较优势。 108. The following appeared as part of a business plan created by the management of the Take Heart Fitness Center. “After opening the new swimming pool early last summer, Take Heart saw a 12 percent increase in the use of the center by members. Therefore, in order to increase the number of our members and thus our revenues, which depend on membership fees, we should continue to add new recreational facilities in subsequent years: for example, a multipurpose game room, a tennis court, and a miniature golf course. Being the only center in the area offering this range of activities would give us a competitive advantage in the health and recreation market.” | 108 | 35次 |
| 8.4. | 一个零售商店调查显示：中年人花在商店的钱比年轻人多百分之几，所以应该换吸引中年人的商品，少管年轻人…… 9. The following appeared in the opinion column of a financial magazine. “On average, middle-aged consumers devote 39 percent of their retail expenditure to department store products and services, while for younger consumers the average is only 25 percent. Since the number of middle-aged people will increase dramatically within the next decade, department stores can expect retail sales to increase significantly during that period. Furthermore, to take advantage of the trend, these stores should begin to replace some of those products intended to attract the younger consumer with products intended to attract the middle-aged consumer.” | 9 | 34次 |
| 8.4. 8.7. 8.9. 8.11. | 1200学生中有200学生去抗议的那题 10. The following appeared in the editorial section of a local newspaper. “This past winter, 200 students from Waymarsh State College traveled to the state capitol building to protest against proposed cuts in funding for various state college programs. The other 12,000 Waymarsh students evidently weren’t so concerned about their education: they either stayed on campus or left for winter break. Since the group who did not protest is far more numerous, it is more representative of the state’s college students than are the protesters. Therefore the state legislature need not heed the appeals of the protesting students.” | 10 | 35次 |
| 8.5. | 一个什么cafe搬迁，庆祝它两周年的anniversary,然后说原来的地方对business不好因为有3个什么别的行业的公司进入 47. The following appeared as part of an article in the business section of a local newspaper. “The owners of the Cumquat Café evidently made a good business decision in moving to a new location, as can be seen from the fact that the Café will soon celebrate its second anniversary there. Moreover, it appears that businesses are not likely to succeed at the old location: since the Café’s move, three different businesses — a tanning salon, an antique emporium, and a pet-grooming shop — have occupied its former spot.” | 47 | 23次 |
| 8.6. | A公司和B公司都生产游戏，B最后失败了，所以A也要失败 (猜测是对应的第86题) 86. The following appeared as part of an article in the business section of a daily newspaper. “Company A has a large share of the international market in video-game hardware and software. Company B, the pioneer in these products, was once a $12 billion-a-year giant but collapsed when children became bored with its line of products. Thus Company A can also be expected to fail, especially given the fact that its games are now in so many American homes that the demand for them is nearly exhausted.” | 86 | 22次 |
| 8.6. 8.14 | 只记得那个结论了,是说原来的LOCATION比新的好,咖啡馆搬迁是错误的决定 (本题存疑, 可能是63题) 63. The following appeared as part of an article in the business section of a local newspaper. “The Cumquat Café made a mistake in moving to a new location. After one year at the new spot, it is doing about the same volume of business as before, but the owners of the RoboWrench plumbing supply wholesale outlet that took over its old location are apparently doing better: RoboWrench is planning to open a store in a neighboring city.” | 63 | 6次 |
| 8.6. | 电子书越来越多，人们都在电脑上读名著那篇。不过结论和原题不一样，是建议投资某生产电子书的公司，其实就是又送了一个攻击点。 106. The following appeared as part of a business plan by the Capital Idea Investment firm. “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 CD-ROM.* People who would not pay bookstore prices will now have access to whatever book they want from their home or work computers. Consequently, literary classics are likely to be read more widely than ever before: 72 percent of those responding to a recent online survey said they would read books in electronic form, and 81 percent said they believed that reading classic works was important. Given this newly developing market, we should invest in E-Classics, a new company that sells electronic versions of literary classics.” *A CD-ROM is a small portable disc capable of storing relatively large amounts of data that can be read by a computer. | 106 | 37次 |
| 8.7. 8.11. | 是一家地區銀行的放款部 認為應該拒絕一家想在某地開設分店的冰淇淋公司的貸款申請 原因是某地是以冷而出名的 當地唯一一家的冰淇淋店去年業績也衰退了10% 110. 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.” | 110 | 34次 |
| 8.7. | 11. The following appeared in the editorial section of a local newspaper. “In the first four years that Montoya has served as mayor of the city of San Perdito, the population has decreased and the unemployment rate has increased. Two businesses have closed for each new business that has opened. Under Varro, who served as mayor for four years before Montoya, the unemployment rate decreased and the population increased. Clearly, the residents of San Perdito would be best served if they voted Montoya out of office and reelected Varro.” | 11 | 27次 |
| 8.7. | The following appeared in a memorandum from the information technology department of a major advertising firm: “The more efficient a firm’s employees are, the more profitable that firm will be. Improvements in a firm’s information technology hardware and software are a proven way to increase the efficiency of employees who do the majority of their work on computers. Therefore, if our firm invests in the most powerful and advanced information technology available, employee productivity will be maximized. This strategy ensures that every dollar spent on enhanced information technology will help to increase our firm’s profit margins.” | B3 | 26次 |
| 8.7. | 一个人说投入资金在先进的技术有助于提高员工的效率。 | 大概同B3 | |
| 8.8 8.12. 2次 | v1. investment in a home和in the stock market那篇 v2. 因为过去的5年房价一直在涨，股票一直在跌，所以应该买房子。。。 V3. 说regional的 home pricing 在过去的5年doubled 了, 但是stock的价格没有变化. 所以某个city的家伙说: ‘在未来的几年内, 本市的居民应该投资home, 而不是股票’. | 没找到… | |
| 8.8 8.12. | 研究说非赢利性组织的员工工作积极性更高，有调查显示是因为这些员工觉得他们的工作对社会有益，因此作者建议公司投入更多在公益活动上，以激发员工工作积极性，并提高利润 B1.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.” | B1 | 30次 |
| 8.8. 8.13. | 9 out of 1000 passagers of A airline company filed complaints , thus the manager think that a service quality improvement is not necessary.那题 39. The following appeared in an Avia Airlines departmental memorandum. “On average, 9 out of every 1,000 passengers who traveled on Avia Airlines last year filed a complaint about our baggage-handling procedures. This means that although some 1 percent of our passengers were unhappy with those procedures, the overwhelming majority were quite satisfied with them; thus it would appear that a review of the procedures is not important to our goal of maintaining or increasing the number of Avia’s passengers.” | 39 | 32次 |
| 8.8. | 84. “Company A has a large share of the international market in video-game hardware and software. Company B, the pioneer in these products, was once a $12 billion-a-year giant but collapsed when children became bored with its line of products. Thus Company A can also be expected to fail, especially given the fact that its games are now in so many American homes that the demand for them is nearly exhausted.” | 86 | 22次 |
| 8.9. 8.11. | 研究发现常去锻炼的人比那些不锻炼的人更少进医院，因此，得出结论，某公司（还是政府部门来着？）决定provide a well-equiped gym,这样就能reduce the cost on the group health insurance,也就能achieve the balanced budget. 112. The following appeared in a memo to the Saluda town council from the town’s business manager. “Research indicates that those who exercise regularly are hospitalized less than half as often as those who don’t exercise. By providing a well-equipped gym for Saluda’s municipal employees, we should be able to reduce the cost of our group health insurance coverage by approximately 50% and thereby achieve a balanced town budget.” | 112 | 19次 |
| 8.9. 8.12. | 桔类水果价格上涨的那个，说价格上涨是种植者的问题，要求政府进行价格管制 92. The following is taken from an editorial in a local newspaper. “Over the past decade, the price per pound of citrus fruit has increased substantially. Eleven years ago, Megamart charged 5 cents apiece for lemons, but today it commonly charges over 30 cents apiece. In only one of these last eleven years was the weather unfavorable for growing citrus crops. Evidently, then, citrus growers have been responsible for the excessive increase in the price of citrus fruit, and strict pricing regulations are needed to prevent them from continuing to inflate prices.” | 92 | 15次 |
| 8.11 | 一个市的市长就任后，失业率很高，前人很低那题 11. The following appeared in the editorial section of a local newspaper. “In the first four years that Montoya has served as mayor of the city of San Perdito, the population has decreased and the unemployment rate has increased. Two businesses have closed for each new business that has opened. Under Varro, who served as mayor for four years before Montoya, the unemployment rate decreased and the population increased. Clearly, the residents of San Perdito would be best served if they voted Montoya out of office and reelected Varro.” | 11 | 27次 |
| 8.11 | 28. The following appeared in the editorial section of a local newspaper. “Commuter use of the new subway train is exceeding the transit company’s projections. However, commuter use of the shuttle buses that transport people to the subway stations is below the projected volume. If the transit company expects commuters to ride the shuttle buses to the subway rather than drive there, it must either reduce the shuttle bus fares or increase the price of parking at the subway stations.” | 28 | 54次 |
| 8.11 | 在一个城市修购物中心,引发停车位不足和犯罪率上升,所以另一个城市不能修购物中心 52. 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.” | 52 | 43次 |
| 8.12. | IT方面的软件和硬件投资，提高公司的效率和利润。 B3. The following appeared in a memorandum from the information technology department of a major advertising firm: “The more efficient a firm’s employees are, the more profitable that firm will be. Improvements in a firm’s information technology hardware and software are a proven way to increase the efficiency of employees who do the majority of their work on computers. Therefore, if our firm invests in the most powerful and advanced information technology available, employee productivity will be maximized. This strategy ensures that every dollar spent on enhanced information technology will help to increase our firm’s profit margins.” | 疑似B3 | 26次 |
| 8.13. | 基於大學醫院聘用低於15%當地的醫生，低的成功治療率，付給較少的pay給醫學員工，且醫生把時間分成治療研究與教學三部分，所以大學醫院比私立或社區醫院服務更不好。 43. The following appeared in an article in the health section of a newspaper. “There is a common misconception that university hospitals are better than community or private hospitals. This notion is unfounded, however: the university hospitals in our region employ 15 percent fewer doctors, have a 20 percent lower success rate in treating patients, make far less overall profit, and pay their medical staff considerably less than do private hospitals. Furthermore, many doctors at university hospitals typically divide their time among teaching, conducting research, and treating patients. From this it seems clear that the quality of care at university hospitals is lower than that at other kinds of hospitals.” | 43 | 23次 |
| 8.13. | 第16. 篇，就是说因为更多的人要达到进大学的年龄，所以做大学教师的市场会变好。 16. The following appeared as part of an article in the education section of a Waymarsh City newspaper. “Throughout the last two decades, those who earned graduate degrees found it very difficult to get jobs teaching their academic specialties at the college level. Those with graduate degrees from Waymarsh University had an especially hard time finding such jobs. But better times are coming in the next decade for all academic job seekers, including those from Waymarsh. Demographic trends indicate that an increasing number of people will be reaching college age over the next ten years; consequently, we can expect that the job market will improve dramatically for people seeking college-level teaching positions in their fields.” | 16 | 36次 |
| 8.13. | Sandida Heights的地价在增长，Palm Grove不变, 所以SH比PG贵, 而且SH被overprice了. 我们应该买PG的地. B6. The following appeared in a letter from a part-owner of a small retail clothing chain to her business partner: “Commercial real estate prices have been rising steadily in the Sandida Heights neighborhood for several years, while the prices in the adjacent neighborhood of Palm Grove have remained the same. It seems obvious, then, that a retail space in Sandida Heights must now be much more expensive than a similar space in Palm Grove, which was not the case several years ago. So, it appears that retail spaces in Sandida Heights are now overpriced relative to those in Palm Grove. Therefore, it would be in our financial interest to purchase a retail space in Palm Grove rather than in Sandida Heights.” | B6 | 27次 |
| 8.11. 8.13. 8.14. 2次 | 一个城市建议把自愿的救护工作改由商业救护公司经营那道。。 32. The following appeared in the editorial section of a West Cambria newspaper. “A recent review of the West Cambria volunteer ambulance service revealed a longer average response time to accidents than was reported by a commercial ambulance squad located in East Cambria. In order to provide better patient care for accident victims and to raise revenue for our town by collecting service fees for ambulance use, we should disband our volunteer service and hire a commercial ambulance service.” | 32 | 21次 |
| 8.13. | 97. 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.” | 97 | 32次 |
| 8.14. | 学校宿舍住的人少了,所以收入少了.所以相关部门应该减少数量和降价 | 没找到… | |
| 8.14. | 一个小提琴公司A以原来是生产高端产品的 但是最近业绩下滑 同行业的B公司是生产低端产品的 并且在推出一款INEXPENSIVE产品后业绩上升 所以A公司也应该推出该类产品 | 好象跟A3一样,是钢琴不是小提琴 | |
| 8.13. 8.14. 2次 | Largo公司应该学习Allegro公司的策略，生产digital piano盈利。 A3. The following appeared in a memorandum from the development director of the Largo Piano Company. “The Largo Piano Company has long been known for producing carefully handcrafted, expensive pianos used by leading concert pianists. During the past few years, however, our revenues have declined; meanwhile, the Allegro Musical Instrument Company introduced a line of inexpensive digital pianos and then saw its revenues increase. In order to increase Largo’s sales and in fact outsell Allegro, we should introduce a line of digital pianos in a variety of price ranges. Our digital pianos would be likely to find instant acceptance with customers, since they would be associated with the prestigious Largo name.” | A3 | 31次 |
