The following is a recommendation from the personnel director to the president of Acme Publishing Company.
6 A: W' X/ z6 k, z7 j _ "Many other companies have recently stated that having their employees take the Easy Read Speed-Reading Course has greatly improved productivity. One graduate of the course was able to read a 500-page report in only two hours; another graduate rose from an assistant manager to vice president of the company in under a year. Obviously, the faster you can read, the more information you can absorb in a single workday. Moreover, Easy Read would cost Acme only $500 per employee—a small price to pay when you consider the benefits. Included in this fee is a three-week seminar in Spruce City and a lifelong subscription to the Easy Read newsletter. Clearly, to improve productivity, Acme should require all of our employees to take the Easy Read course."- y5 Y) }/ Z; |& |& A) S# Y

换句话说,现在的题库体现不出ETS的出题水平,感觉是仓促推出的一堆东西,不排除ETS对其进行优化的可能。/ [ w( |: E+ T8 V! }0 T* t1 i
另外,2002年GRE改革,删除逻辑分析部分增加作文的时候,也是在新考试即将推出之前,ETS把一开始公布的每部分140多道题一下子增加到现在的240多道题。- G2 ~! U! o( C* D: H
