Q: There are just too many questions from old JJ so I wont metntion here.

V:

CR:

1. 藝復興時代畫作保存的那題
2. concrete和wooden房子的能耗问题，说什么不记得了，最后说很多人还是愿意选择concrete的房子，是因为……。我选的是maintainess的费用低
3. 老的药要七天才好，但是病人三天以后就不高兴吃了，所以反复感染率高。新的药只要吃三天就可以了，所以应该反复感染的机会变少。用排除法做的，最后选的“病人吃新药和老药都在三天以后觉得已经完全好了”
4. 某国提高香烟税，并准备把得到的钱放在教育上。该国预计（1）可以使该国的香烟总消耗量下降（2）这个措施既可以增加在教育上的投入。问can best support which of the following conclusion?也就是能得到什么结论（仅供参考：我选了“如果（1）效果好就会影响（2）的效果”）
5. 某inscription中可以看出一国A和另一国B交往的某东东（猜测为国书），A国国王死于AD568，March，B国国王即位于AD568，Nov。结论为A国王和B国王有过书信来往。问加强： 从A国向B国寄信需要很长的一段时间。
6. There is one question is about the percentage. I cannot remembere very clear. The question mentions that 2 parks per 1000 citizens and in the future the figure will be 4 parks per 1000 citisenz. Question asked "Assumption"....用反駁的反駁
7. GWD BF about the writting style from right to left and left to right.

RC:
1. 中世纪女人寿命变长的原因.
第一段: 人们利用多种手段 (列举) 估计中世纪时候女人的平均寿命. 显示女人活的长了.
第二段: 解释原因( 考点. 问. 哪个不能解释女人长寿的原因. 一一对照就好)
1. stable politic 给了人们稳定的生活
2. chichvol的出现 (汗, 没有专门背过单词, 不知道什么意思, 也不知道怎么拼.不过我写的挺像原词的)
3. economic的发展.
首先, 改变农业耕种习惯. 把原来由妇女老弱做的农活, 移交给男人.
其次, 新产生的工作不要女人. 所以给了女人更多时间空闲, 得以长寿.
There are four questions:
1st the following can explain that why women increase the life expectancy "Except"
2nd The main purpose
3rd becasue in the first paragraph, the passage mentioned that there is not a lot of informatin about women form the old records but becasue some books and materials existed. Alought these material are not inconsistant, historians still can conbine them and figure out why women's life expeactancy increased. The question asked you what the data here meant to historians. The answer is "......but useful".

2. 某种石头（或者矿物）的磁性是高磁性的，因此推测该石头是在地核里面很高的温度下形成的。两个研究地球的学者，其中一个认为磁性很高的石头的形成不需要很高温度而且这样的高温在地球上是不存在的；另一个通过实验证明磁性高的石头的形成确实需要很高温度，并认为地核的温度不可能很高。该种石头的发现证明以前的结论(地核的温度不可能那么高)是错误的。
Let me detail a little bit.
1st There is a new research that the core of the earth is very hot since one material exsited. Lets say that the research is made by Scientiest K.
2nd This issue was disscused before this research come out. Scientist H said that the core of the earth is not hot. Scientist B said it is hot. The long-term view is "it is not hot because the material(物質) was not excited at that movement. K scientist then proved that it is hot.

Sorry, I cannot remember another two RCs. I was kind of guessing and using reading skill to solve the questions. I hope my JJ will help everyone.

Reference:
The following is what I prepared before the test but it did not appeal in my test. I think it will help you .

--动物园饲养白虎
1. 引用前人几經
第一段先说了动物园饲养白虎，一些人跳出来说这样不好，因为刻意的通过基因培育的白虎都容易得病，不容易存活，然后还有一个不好的理由（忘了，不过不重要）。接着动物园的经理说，由于参观动物园的人喜欢白虎，所以通过饲养白虎可以带来好的收益，用于其他动物的保护工作中。
第二段：反对饲养白虎的人指出动物园应该着重于保护病危动物，而不是白虎（此处说明它是印度一个乱七八糟虎种的一个分支）然后动物园的经理说，他们饲养的白虎都是从自然捕获的，在捕获的时候都很健康，所以他们的自然存活并没有遇到什么问题。接着作者提出一种新的做法，就是混养，把各种老虎混养之后，虽然基因的多样性上会有问题，但是可以让动物园给别的濒临灭绝的物种腾出地方(有考题)
2. My own serach
Tiger fur is short and varies in color from dark orange to reddish brown, with creamy white on the belly, neck, and inside of limbs. Dark brown or black stripes run vertically across the body. Stripe patterns are unique to individual tigers, and like fingerprints in humans, stripes can be used to tell tigers apart. When you see a tiger in the open, its coloration is vivid and striking. But in the dappled light of the forest or in tall grass, the same bold colors make the tiger nearly invisible to prey and to people. [color=darkred]The white tigers seen in some zoos are the result of a rare genetic mutation that occurs rarely in the wild. In the past, many zoos interbred tigers that had this gene mutation for whiteness in order to produce more white tigers. These unusual animals were very popular with zoo visitors. Today few zoos still perform this type of breeding since it serves no conservation purpose for a species that is in danger of extinction.[/color]

--关于美国一战争后出台的颁发pension的描述和评价
1. 引用前人几經
说1892年后出台了这一法规, 女性护士可以凭自己就领到了pension而非有male亲属什么的这里出题问下列关于1892年前选择中作者同意哪项,把第一句取非就好了答案就是后面的RATHER THAN 东东. 不过答案还是很tricky的说奖励给和male有关系而且only参加战争的护士,另一个选项只是把only去掉了. 接着谈到了政府是如何定义发放这些pension给 female nurse 的. 政府不仅根据她们的工作表现,而且预先已经筛选好了只颁发给中产阶级的female nurses.
第2段说到了法规出台后的的问题, 例举了几种护士的工作内容: 帮病人写信读信, 传递药品, 帮助清洗伤口和换药(总之和现在的护士8太一样) . 接着说管理者存在对劳工阶级妇女的歧视,她们的护士内容基本就是洗衣服做饭,杂役的干活. 当偶读到这里,真的很想笑,因为记得某考友的机警称她们洗衣服做饭的大婶,还挺形象的,呵呵. 她们就反对这个法案,8公平呗,凭什么都是人,自己干的比护士还多,就没pension呢.真是!
2. My own search
By the 1890s the meaning of women's war work could be measured outside the workplace by veterans' groups lobbying for monthly pensions. Arguing that the nurse's work was comparable to the soldier's, advocates of the Union army Nurses Pension Act of 1892 linked domestic work in hospitals with military defense. Government support through pensioning encouraged a broader definition of what constituted military service and a wider acceptance of women's paid work. The most striking feature of the pension act was that it rewarded the very people who had lobbied for it—Union army nurses. By limiting eligibility to nurses only, the Pension Bureau excluded thousands of other workers from consideration by virtue of their assignment as cooks and laundresses. Hospital administrators who appointed white middle-class women to nursing work and African American and working-class women to custodial work thus set in motion a ranking that excluded poorer women from seeking pensions years later. By 1895 a more liberal provision of the pension law allowed cooks and laundresses to argue that they had done work commensurate with nurses', but the middle-class promoters of the act took no part in pleading their case. Expanding the pool of potential applicants did not ultimately alter the bureau's exclusionary policies or substantially increase the number of former workers granted pensions.

More than twenty thousand women in the Union and Confederate states engaged in relief work during the Civil War. Some achieved remarkable results, given the obstacles that work in military hospitals presented. New England educator Amy Morris Bradley proved her mettle early on in Maine infantry regiments and was granted increasing responsibility, first as matron of a brigade hospital, next as superintendent on hospital ships, and later as the prime mover in reforming Alexandria's convalescent camp, where she spoke for five thousand soldiers. The dramatic improvement at the neglected Virginia camp turned official heads and secured for Bradley a place in military memory and a foundation on which to build a postwar career as a public school administrator. Unlike Bradley, the vast majority of relief workers were not positioned to achieve the remarkable. Assigned to domestic drudgery in hospital wards, they built fires to cook soup, washed patients' faces, irrigated noxious wounds, cleaned effluvia from the floors, changed bedding, and scrubbed undergarments. If they were lucky—and literate—they might write letters and communicate soldiers' needs to surgeons and ward staff. Many were like Amanda Jones, who left slavery in Louisiana and worked in Union hospitals for over two years. She did not know her age, did not know her parents, and could not sign her name, though it must be said that her service as a laundress, her subsequent marriage, and her ability to sustain herself were all remarkable achievements. Although well-educated women were poised for success in military hospitals, the story of women's relief work rests as much with those whose social advantages were few.


Thanks for you all. I hope my JJ and reference material will help.
