You did the great job! I really admire your achivement! I finished the CBT last week, but I lost it again. I got the score: L-21; S-7~27; R-23 When I test in reading comprehension, I thought it is easier than before i had and I checked the answer once. I predicted I can get the higher score than I really got it. I hope I have a ideal progess in my score like yours on next time CBT. Could you give me some suggestions that you improve the abilities in all 4 aspects and practice the CBT? Congrates & Thanks!

hi, please someone give me a hand to paraphrase the sentences below, thanks! [*] Little is known about the ecological impact of deep aquifer pumping, especially since it's still not clear which of these sources are naturally refilled over time and which are true fossil aquifers -- meaning they exist in sealed spaces much like oil reserves, available for one-time consumption and then lost. [*] Moreover, of the hundreds of water treaties and shared-use agreements forged by nations in recent decades, none applies to underground aquifers. [*] Only 2.5 percent of the world's water is fresh, and the vast majority of that is frozen in glaciers and icecaps. All told, less than three-tenths of 1 percent of the planet's fresh water is in the lakes and rivers that have served as the major sources of water through most of human history, and much of that is drying up or becoming spoiled. the sentences were extracted from the essay "Water scarcity prompts scientists to look down", Washingtonpost.com yumei

7. The log cabin, [among others], was a commonplace [dwelling] for the early settlers in North because of the ease [which] it was able to be constructed and the [relatively ready] availability of its building material, wood. among others dwelling which Corrction: with which This one's tricky! A lot of people miss this question. First, we need to realize that we have an adjective clause here.:)i got it Next, we need to understand that the word which is a pronoun and replaces ease. :)yes, i got it too, Finally, we should remember that we say with ease (which means easily), and we can answer the question!?? Here's a trick that TestMagic teaches: PREPOSITION + which + SENTENCE In adjective clauses, if you see a sentence after which or that, then you need a preposition.?it means that/which +complete sentece or incomplete one? would you mind give me some example for reference? thanks a lot! relatively ready
