天啊撸，我竟差点被GRE娘家人拒之门外！

　　20170623 这场GRE考试不一般

　　怀着万分激动的心情，笔者来到了海淀区考试教育培训中心这个考点（选择这个考点的原因是因为，近！毕竟GRE考试不像托福考试，会受到机器设备很大的影响。GRE考试只与显示器和键盘有关，因此考生不必为挑选考场而烦恼。笔者对于考场的选择倾向于就近，这样去的方便，不用特别奔波）。

　　这是笔者人生中第三次，今年第二次在这个考场考试，到这个考场总有种回娘家的感觉~由于今年上一次在这个考场考试的日子是6月2号，为了避免被当做可疑人物，笔者特意在考试前把头发剪短了。然后！就是因为剪短头发了，娘家人不要我了！！！今天这个考点采用了与托福考试一样的人脸身份证匹配识别系统，检测考生是否为本人。为了方便检测，大家（尤其是女生！）记得发型方面千万别和身份证差太多！！！我就剪了个短发，第一遍机器没识别出来，那个老师一脸狐疑的看着我问“你确定身份证是你本人吗？” 我一脸黑人(Excuse)问号(Me???)的说“是啊，我6月2号还在你们这个考场考试了呢。”那个老师继续不相信，“现在我们有机器了，你们别抱侥幸心理，机器没有识别出来，我们也没法放你进去，你在边上先等一下。” （笔者碎碎念：总感觉“机器没有识别出来，不能放我进去”这句话是在唬我）于是19号的我等到了35号考生扫完，才正式进入再次扫描阶段。

　　在等待的过程中，也算是目睹了考前的千奇百态：考生甲某身份证过期，直接不让进了，因此大家考前务必检查自己的身份证是否在有效期内，毕竟中国大陆地区只认身份证。考生乙某9:45抵达考场，直接不让进系列two，所以大家考试千万别迟到了，ETS规定考试必须9:30前抵达考场，一分钟都不能迟到。除我之外，另外两个女生丙某和丁某在人脸检测的时候，第一遍也没被识别出来，女生丙某跟我一样，由于发型与身份证上不一样，识别失败；考生丁某是替考被查出来了，为了避免尴尬，在我们等其他考生安检的过程中，她借口去厕所，然后再也没有回来。最后，在我和丙某努力调整好发型的情况下，识别通过，可算是可以正式考试了。

　　今天考试是数学加试，2篇写作过后，考试形式为QVQVQ（→_→真的不是表情包）。

　　关于写作：

　　Issue：题库77) The most effective way to understand contemporary culture is to analyze the trends of its youth.

　　Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.

　　Argument：题库113）The following is a recommendation from the personnel director to the president of Acme Publishing Company."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 subion to the Easy Read newsletter. Clearly, to improve productivity, Acme should require all of our employees to take the Easy Read course."

　　Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the advice and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the advice.
