ISSUE :
153"Students should bring a certain skepticism to whatever they study. They should question what they are taught instead of accepting it passively."
170"The surest indicator of a great nation is not the achievements of its rulers, artists, or scientists, but the general welfare of all its people."
ARGUE : 25The following appeared in a memo from the mayor of the town of Hopewell. “Two years ago, the town of Ocean View built a new municipal golf course and resort hotel. During the past two years, tourism in Ocean View has increased, new businesses have opened there, and Ocean View's tax revenues have risen by 30 percent. The best way to improve Hopewell's economy, and generate additional tax revenues, is to build a golf course and resort hotel similar to those in Ocean View."
均为网络通用顺序
特别提醒大家的一点就是:据考场人员介绍,网络疯传的Issue和Argue中间有一分钟间隔的说法,纯属谣言!
但是,考完ISSUE后还有点选择过程才会开始ARGUE,也就是说,你可以先不点开始Argue——主要是针对Argue模板之类的还没记熟的,或是考完ISSUE还有余惊的——花几分钟把心情理一理——别再挂念ISSUE,并且在脑中再好好回顾一下A的模板——因为原先记好的也可能一紧张忘了,一切准备好后再开始ARGUE——因为总共的话,还有些乱七八糟的步骤,他说总时间是两个小时,不能超,但正常总时间足够——本人出考场时是用了一个半小时——所以不用急——个人虽然本身就没太记熟,但主要就是因为太急了,搞的ARGUE现写现想,悲剧的没写完——如果当时先过一过模板,本次考试可以不这么悲剧的……

issue: 1).In order for any work of art—whether film, literature, sculpture, or a song—to have merit, it must be understandable to most people
2).We can usually learn much more from people whose views we share than from people whose views contradict our own; disagreement can cause stress and inhibit learning
arguement:
Scientists studying historical weather patterns have discovered that in the mid-sixth century, Earth suddenly became significantly cooler. Although few historical records survive from that time, some accounts found both in Asia and Europe mention a dimming of the sun and extremely cold temperatures. Either a huge volcanic eruption or a large meteorite colliding with Earth could have created a large dust cloud throughout Earth's atmosphere that would have been capable of blocking enough sunlight to lower global temperatures significantly. A large meteorite collision, however, would probably create a sudden bright flash of light, and no extant historical records of the time mention such a flash. Some surviving Asian historical records of the time, however, mention a loud boom that would be consistent with a volcanic eruption. Therefore, the cooling was probably caused by a volcanic eruption.
