　　新增黄金题目：

　　一.Analysis of Issue Questions

　　33.People are likely to accept as a leader only someone who has demonstrated an ability to perform the same tasks that he or she expects others to perform.

　　92.Government should establish regulations to reduce or eliminate any suspected health hazards in the environment, even when the scientific studies of these health hazards are incomplete or contradictory.

　　100.If a nation is to ensure its own economic success, it must maintain a highly competitive educational system in which students compete among themselves and against students from other countries.

　　115.Technology ultimately separates and alienates people more than it serves to bring them together.

　　二.Analysis of Argument Questions

　　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.

　　95.The following appeared as part of an article in the business section of a local newspaper.

　　Hippocrene Plumbing Supply recently opened a wholesale outlet in the location once occupied by the Cumquat Caf. Hippocrene has apparently been quite successful there because it is planning to open a large outlet in a nearby city. But the Cumquat Caf, one year after moving to its new location, has seen its volume of business drop somewhat from the previous years. Clearly, the former site is a better business location, and the Cumquat Caf has made a mistake in moving to its new address.

　　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 they 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.

　　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 couldnt 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.

　　一.Analysis of Issue Questions

　　33. 人们只愿意接受这样的领导：他能完成他要求其他人完成的任务。

　　92. 政府应该建立规则减少或消灭环境中可疑的健康危害，哪怕关于这些健康危害的科学研究还不完全或者有矛盾。

　　100. 如果一个国家要确保它的经济成功，它必须保持有高度竞争力的教育系统，在其中学生们相互竞争，还和国外的学生进行竞争。

　　115. 技术最终分离疏远了人们而不是把他们聚在一起。

　　二.Analysis of Argument Questions

　　92. 当地报纸的社论：

　　过去的10年里，桔类水果的价格实际上上升了。11年前，Megamart每个柠檬要价5分，现在一般要价为30分一个。过去11年只有一年不适合桔类水果生长。显然，柑桔种植者应该对桔类水果价格过度上涨负责。为防止他们继续哄抬价格规范价格规定很有必要。

　　95. 地方报纸的商业版：

　　Hippocrene铅管供应商在一度为Cumquat咖啡店的地方开了一家直销店。。Hippocrene现在相当的成功，因为他们正计划在临近城市开一家大的直销店。但是Cumquat咖啡店在搬到新地址一年后发现它的业务量比前一年有所下降。很明显，它的前一个地址是一个更好的商务地址，Cumquat咖啡店做出搬迁决定是错误的。

　　97. 电脑杂志的文章：

　　一年前Apex制造公司给它的经理们在家买了电脑，并支付电话费，这样他们就可以在工作时间以外从家里连接到Apex的电脑和数据文件。从去年开始，Apex的生产能力增长了15%。其他公司可以借鉴Apex的成功，提供家用电脑和到公司资源的链接，雇员会在家里加班并提高公司利润。

　　106. 报纸的图书版的文章：

　　现在越来越多的书有了电子版，或者放在网上免费获得，或者在光盘上以很低的价格出售。因此文学经典可以得到比以前更广泛的阅读。不能以书店价格购买这些书的人现在可以用很少的钱或者不花钱来阅读他们。类似的，觉得去图书馆或者等待其他人还书不方便的人现在可以通过家里或者工作用的电脑得到他想要的任何名着。这和文学名着接触的增长将从根本上影响公众的阅读品味，塑造比以前更成熟更博学的读者。

　　113. 销售各国美食的一家商店的副经理的备忘录：

　　一家本地的葡萄酒店上个月发现了一个有趣的事实：它在播放法国的手风琴音乐时卖的法国酒就比意大利酒多;而它播放意大利歌曲时意大利酒就卖的比法国酒多。我建议我们每周出售从一个特定国家来的食品，并同时播放且只播放那个国家的音乐。通过这种方法我们将和那家葡萄酒店一样提高我们的利润。而且我们将能够在任何时候都更准确地预测我们该储存的货物。
