137.The following appeared in an editorial in the Mason City newspaper.
"At present, Mason City residents seldom use the nearby Mason River for any kind of

recreational activity, even though surveys of the region's residents consistently

rank water sports (swimming, fishing, and boating) as a favorite form of

recreation. Since there have been complaints about the quality of the water in the

river, residents must be avoiding the river because they think that it is not clean

enough. But that situation is about to change: the agency responsible for rivers in

our region has announced plans to clean up Mason River. Therefore, recreational use

of the river is likely to increase, so the Mason City council will need to increase

its budget for improvements to the publicly owned lands along the Mason River."
當(dāng)前，Mason市很少利用附近的Mason河來進(jìn)行娛樂活動(dòng)，盡管對(duì)該地區(qū)居的幾次調(diào)查一直指出

他們把水上運(yùn)動(dòng)（游泳、垂釣和劃船）作為他們最喜歡的娛樂形式。由于曾經(jīng)存在對(duì)于這條河

水質(zhì)的投訴，居一定是因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)為河水不夠干凈才不在這里活動(dòng)。但這種情況就會(huì)改變了：

我們地區(qū)負(fù)責(zé)河流管理的部門公布了澄清Mason河的計(jì)劃。因此，河流的娛樂用途很可能將會(huì)增

加，因而Mason市的市委有必要增加用于改Mason河沿岸公共土地的預(yù)算。

閱讀：有一篇講的是歐洲歷史關(guān)于人們的歷史研究，大概是批判了一個(gè)人的某種觀點(diǎn)。這篇超

級(jí)不懂，不過還是成功讀出了反對(duì)的意思。但是為啥就不怎么理解了。
忘了。早上起來還記得另外一篇的。。。

Quantitative:
好像別的題都沒啥好說的，也不記得。
就記得有一個(gè)圖表類型的題變成了幾何題。給一個(gè)比較復(fù)雜的圖給了兩道題目。不過題目還挺

簡(jiǎn)單的。
還有一道圖表題非常難。問的是那個(gè)城市的增長(zhǎng)率是中數(shù)。。。我做了估計(jì)5-10分鐘，放棄了

蒙了一個(gè)。
總體感覺Q的時(shí)間還挺趕的。
