A divide between aesthetic and technical considerations has played a crucial role in mapmaking and
cartographic scholarship. Since nineteenth century cartographers, for instance, understood themselves as
technicians who did not care about visual effects, while others saw themselves as landscape painters. That
dichotomy structured the discipline of the history of cartography. Until the 1980s, in what Blakemore and Harley
called “the Old is Beautiful Paradigm,” scholars largely focused on maps made before 1800, marveling at their.--
beauty and sometimes regretting the decline of the pre-technical age. Early mapmaking was considered art while
modern cartography was located within the realm of engineering utility. Alpers, however, has argued that this
boundary would have puzzled mapmakers in the seventeenth century, because they considered themselves to be
visual engineers.

As of late 1980s, neither theorists nor large-scale computer climate models could accurately predict whether
cloud systems would help or hurt a warming globe. Some studies suggested that a four percent increase in-baidu 1point3acres
stratocumulus clouds over the ocean could compensate for a doubling in atmospheric carbon dioxide, preventing a
potentially disastrous planetwide temperature increase. On the other hand, an increase in cirrus clouds could
increase global warming.
That clouds represented the weakest element in climate models was illustrated by a study of fourteen such
models. Comparing climate forecasts for a world with double the current amount of carbon dioxide, researchers
found that the models agreed quite well if clouds were not included. But when clouds were incorporated, a wide
range of forecasts was produced. With such discrepancies plaguing the models, scientists could not easily predict. From 1point 3acres bbs
how quickly the world’s climate would change, nor could they tell which regions would face dustier droughts or
deadlier monsoons. ..

考试机经：作文：issue： Governments should offer a free university education to any student who has been admitted to a university but who cannot afford the tuition
instruction:Write a response in which you discuss your views on the policy and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider the possible consequences of implementing the policy and explain how these consequences shape your position.
argumnet:"A ten-year nationwide study of the effectiveness of wearing a helmet while bicycling indicates that ten years ago, approximately 35 percent of all bicyclists reported wearing helmets, whereas today that number is nearly 80 percent. Another study, however, suggests that during the same ten-year period, the number of bicycle-related accidents has increased 200 percent. These results demonstrate that bicyclists feel safer because they are wearing helmets, and they take more risks as a result. Thus, to reduce the number of serious injuries from bicycle accidents, the government should concentrate more on educating people about bicycle safety and less on encouraging or requiring bicyclists to wear helmets.". ----
Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.
数学：总体不难，但第二个section的图表题非常容易出错，几何题目考了一个有关圆内切三角形面积与该圆的半径的平方的大小比较题，算是较难的题目。
语文：词汇基本用3k可以涵盖，但仍然难以选对。（结合上一次考试，感觉逻辑越来越重要）

考试机经：Issue 221"The chief benefit of the study of history is to break down the illusion that people in one period of time are significantly different from people who lived at any other time in history."
Argument
12The following appeared in a memo from a vice president of Alta Manufacturing.
"During the past year, Alta Manufacturing had thirty percent more on-the-job accidents than nearby Panoply Industries, where the work shifts are one hour shorter than ours. Experts believe that a significant contributing factor in many on-the-job accidents is fatigue and sleep deprivation among workers. Therefore, to reduce the number of on-the-job accidents at Alta and thereby increase productivity, we should shorten each of our three work shifts by one hour so that our employees will get adequate amounts of sleep."
