GRE多空題全部選對(duì)才能得分太困難?只需2個(gè)技巧就能解決問(wèn)題
1. 根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞匯來(lái)判斷語(yǔ)言上的基本邏輯關(guān)系
因果:because, in that, for, therefore, thus, accordingly, consequently, given, hence, so…that, so...as to, if...then, when...then, as long as...
轉(zhuǎn)折:albeit, although, though, but, despite, even though, however, in spite of, nevertheless, nonetheless, notwithstanding, while, whatever, regardless, even if, even though, yet, and yet...

對(duì)比:in contrast, on the contrary, far from, on the other hand, rather than, instead of, not…but, paradoxically, ironically, surprisingly, unexpectedly, curiously...
2. 尋找句子中的重復(fù)關(guān)系
作為研究生院入學(xué)的參考考試,也許是為了體現(xiàn)內(nèi)容有深度,很多句子涉及到了各個(gè)學(xué)科的背景知識(shí)。同時(shí)基于對(duì)所有學(xué)科學(xué)生都要公平的原則,所有的題目在解題點(diǎn)上都不涉及背景知識(shí)。為了做到這一點(diǎn),很多時(shí)候ETS都是把答案放到句子中,然后用語(yǔ)言上的線索提示你去把它找出來(lái)。以下是提供重復(fù)線索的幾種常見(jiàn)形式:
(1) 簡(jiǎn)單的直接重復(fù)
The eradication of pollution is not merely a matter of ___, though the majestic beauty of nature is indeed an important consideration.
A. economics B. legislation C. cleanliness D. aesthetics E. restoration
盡管大自然的美確實(shí)很重要,但污染的消除不僅是什么問(wèn)題,當(dāng)然不僅是美的問(wèn)題。
Comparatively few rock musicians are willing to laugh at themselves, although a hint of----can boost sales of video clips very nicely.
A. self-deprecation B. congeniality C. cynicism D. embarrassment E. self-doubt
搖滾樂(lè)手很少自嘲,盡管什么東西能促進(jìn)錄像短片的銷售,當(dāng)然就填自嘲。
Melodramas, which presented stark oppositions between innocence and criminality, virtue and corruption, good and evil, were popular precisely because they offered the audience a world ___of___.
A. bereft.. theatricality B. composed.. adversity C. full.. circumstantiality D. deprived.. polarity
E. devoid.. neutrality
Melodramas這個(gè)詞不認(rèn)識(shí)也沒(méi)關(guān)系,既然它表現(xiàn)的是無(wú)辜與罪行、道德與墮落、善與惡之間的刻板對(duì)立,那么它提供給觀眾什么樣的世界呢?當(dāng)然是刻板對(duì)立的世界,只有E選項(xiàng)符合要求。
(2) 解釋型重復(fù)
The Muses are___deities: they avenge themselves without mercy on those who weary of their charms.
A. rueful B. ingenuous C. solicitous D. vindictive E. dispassionate
冒號(hào)后面的內(nèi)容就是正確選項(xiàng)D這個(gè)詞的釋義,所以不知道繆斯是什么東西也能輕松選對(duì)。
Unenlightened authoritarian managers rarely recognize a crucial reason for the low levels of serious conflict among members of democratically run work groups: a modicum of tolerance for dissent often prevents___。
A. demur B. schism C. cooperation D. compliance E. shortsightedness
冒號(hào)后面的內(nèi)容解釋了民主方式運(yùn)作的工作團(tuán)體中為何少有嚴(yán)重的沖突,所以即使看不懂a(chǎn) modicum of
tolerance for dissent是什么東西,也應(yīng)該知道這個(gè)東西避免了嚴(yán)重沖突,故選B。
(3) 根據(jù)語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)推斷重復(fù)
The valedictory address, as it has developed in American colleges and universities over the years, has become a very strict form, a literary ___ that permits very little ___.
A. text.. clarity B. work.. tradition C. genre.. deviation
D. oration.. grandiloquence E. achievement.. rigidity
a literary ___ that permits very little ___. 是前面的a very strict form的同位語(yǔ),所以第一空格填form的同義或近義詞,that permits very little___. 這個(gè)從句完成后應(yīng)為strict的同義或近義詞。
Many more eighteenth-century novels were written by women than by men, but this dominance has, until very
recently, been regarded merely as ___ fact, a bit of arcane knowledge noted only by bibliographers。
A. a controversial B. a statistical C. an analytical D. an explicit E. an unimpeachable
這道題同樣,a bit of arcane knowledge noted only by bibliographers. 是前面的___ fact的同義重復(fù),所以空格應(yīng)填入文獻(xiàn)學(xué)家關(guān)注的事實(shí),已知的五個(gè)選項(xiàng)里顯然只有B選項(xiàng)的statistical(統(tǒng)計(jì)的)是文獻(xiàn)學(xué)家的份內(nèi)工作。

解析:
1、百老匯樂(lè)壇明顯抵制創(chuàng)新和實(shí)驗(yàn):它反復(fù)使用那些統(tǒng)治樂(lè)壇數(shù)年的人物和故事線。
[解析]:本題簡(jiǎn)單,沒(méi)有任何難度。第一空扮演箭頭的角色,以確定對(duì)創(chuàng)新innovation and experimentation持正評(píng)價(jià)還是負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)。冒號(hào)表示解釋同義重復(fù),characters and story lines that have dominated the musical stage for years.表示創(chuàng)新的取非,所以決定了兩空一定是反義關(guān)系。BCD兩空全是正評(píng)價(jià),A全是負(fù)評(píng)價(jià),能夠表示兩個(gè)空格一正一負(fù)的只有E啦。
2、一些關(guān)于“為什么民主選舉有時(shí)候顯得荒謬?”的理論依賴于“人的行為有固有的不合理性”這樣的觀點(diǎn);相反,另一些解釋卻假定:人們做事合乎邏輯,同時(shí)也計(jì)算自己的利益。
[解析]:分號(hào)前面的主干是theories rest on idea,第一空格是修飾idea的,根據(jù)第二主干大法從修飾theories的地方找,of why election results in democracies sometimes seem perverse決定了第一空一定填負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)詞,排除C。in contrast提示前后取非,后面說(shuō)people act logically,前面當(dāng)然要說(shuō)人們做事不合邏輯啦,所以E選項(xiàng)很快出來(lái)。
3、這本書中關(guān)于這個(gè)辦公室女主管任期的報(bào)告太過(guò)粗糙而沒(méi)有說(shuō)服力:該報(bào)告沒(méi)有注意到她的許多成就,而是放大了她的不足之處。
[解析]:此題太簡(jiǎn)單。冒號(hào)后面的and表示同義重復(fù),her many accomplishments與her failures.是反義,所以overlooks與第二空格應(yīng)該是反義詞。選項(xiàng)C很快出來(lái)。
GRE考試填空真題答案及解析

解析:
1、這兩個(gè)社會(huì)學(xué)者的共同之處是一個(gè)聲明,聲明說(shuō)他們各自的預(yù)言描述了預(yù)先確定的結(jié)果:每一個(gè)學(xué)者都相信他所預(yù)測(cè)的發(fā)展是必然的。
[解析]:怎么樣的A推出怎么樣的B。預(yù)言描述的當(dāng)然是預(yù)言的東西,第一空很容易推出來(lái),能表示預(yù)言的就只能是C啦。
2、由人物之間虛幻的書信組成的書信體小說(shuō),在當(dāng)代的讀者看來(lái)顯得不切實(shí)際,當(dāng)代的讀者寫信極少,可能會(huì)懷疑哪有人能有這么多需要用筆寫的東西。
[解析]:根據(jù)“年輕人是年輕的”這種最簡(jiǎn)單的邏輯做題法則,我們很輕易得出:由人物之間虛構(gòu)的書信組成的書信體小說(shuō)當(dāng)然會(huì)seem顯得虛構(gòu)。所以空格處填fictitious的同義詞C
3、研究者們說(shuō)甲醇能通過(guò)抑制一個(gè)叫做光呼吸作用的自然過(guò)程來(lái)促進(jìn)植物的生長(zhǎng),在這個(gè)光呼吸過(guò)程中植物會(huì)損失大量它生長(zhǎng)所需要的能量。
[解析]:整體結(jié)構(gòu)是賓語(yǔ)從句,我們只看從句的主干。甲醇能促進(jìn)生長(zhǎng),正評(píng)價(jià)!通過(guò)對(duì)一個(gè)自然過(guò)程做第一空格這個(gè)動(dòng)作來(lái)促進(jìn)。第一空正還是負(fù)?要看這個(gè)自然過(guò)程對(duì)植物生長(zhǎng)時(shí)促進(jìn)還是阻礙。known as photorespiration是補(bǔ)充修飾專業(yè)描述,不需要看懂,繼續(xù)往下掃。(后面during which是一個(gè)帶介詞的非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,during which在從句中作狀語(yǔ)。)后面說(shuō)到much of the energy it needs to grow,這是正評(píng)價(jià),可是植物到底能否得到這個(gè)好東西由第二空決定。所以邏輯推理結(jié)果出來(lái):如果第二空填正評(píng)價(jià),那么第一空也是;如果第二空填負(fù)評(píng)價(jià),那么第一空也是。滿足這個(gè)條件的只有BD,優(yōu)先選擇感情色彩強(qiáng)烈的D。
4、盡管許多真正的友誼萌芽于僅僅是沒(méi)有自私雜念的純粹善意,但是對(duì)那些開(kāi)始友誼關(guān)系的人們來(lái)說(shuō)一些現(xiàn)實(shí)的誘惑在增大。
[解析]:第一空是細(xì)節(jié)題,扮演修飾goodwill的成分,所以可以使用三位一體戰(zhàn)術(shù)。pure goodwill ______ with selfish considerations要保持邏輯關(guān)系上的一致,而pure goodwill 顯然與 selfish considerations取非,這樣一來(lái)就要求第一空必須是一個(gè)絕對(duì)的負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)詞,最合適的只有BE。轉(zhuǎn)折前對(duì)pure goodwill正評(píng)價(jià),對(duì)selfish considerations負(fù)評(píng)價(jià),轉(zhuǎn)折后就要對(duì)selfish considerations正評(píng)價(jià)啦。those who enter into such relations可以看作genuine friendships的同義重復(fù)(友誼與參與友誼的人們,上下義表達(dá)),accrue顯然是正評(píng)價(jià),所以第二空格必須填selfish considerations的同義重復(fù)。對(duì)于人而言什么屬于自私雜念?當(dāng)然是誘惑啦。所以答案選E。

A. rearranging B. inspecting C. unsure of D. preoccupied with E.impatient with

解析:
1、在這艘船下水前的一系列演講中,設(shè)計(jì)者的表情憂郁目光游離;毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),他對(duì)這個(gè)儀式不自信并且對(duì)繼續(xù)下水感到擔(dān)心。(get on with繼續(xù)做。)
[解析]:分號(hào)前面是負(fù)評(píng)價(jià),所以分號(hào)后面的空格處一定填負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)詞(用and幫助確定),粗選出CE。再精確推一下,he= its designer,與its designer’s expression看作上下義同義表達(dá),所以空格應(yīng)該由was pensive and his stare distain來(lái)決定,所以C比較合適。
2、盡管這個(gè)群體中不是所有的女性都認(rèn)為自己是女權(quán)主義者,但是她們的生活卻證明她們有著共同的信仰,即男女是平等的,對(duì)于一個(gè)個(gè)體而言不是性別而是成就才是問(wèn)題的關(guān)鍵。
[解析]:轉(zhuǎn)折前面說(shuō)女性們不都一樣,轉(zhuǎn)折后面馬上說(shuō)到了一樣的地方(their shared belief),因此邏輯關(guān)系已經(jīng)成立,我們只需要在空格處填一個(gè)正評(píng)價(jià)詞以完成句子即可。唯一確定的正評(píng)價(jià)詞就是B。
3、研究委員會(huì)敦促這個(gè)教授去證實(shí)他的關(guān)于“他處于重大發(fā)現(xiàn)的邊緣”的聲明,因?yàn)檫^(guò)去他做過(guò)幾個(gè)讓人難以相信的聲明。
[解析]:此題與2002年11月考題SECTION ONE的第7題如出一轍。在時(shí)間對(duì)比題型中我們反復(fù)講到時(shí)間在后否定前者,這是學(xué)術(shù)英語(yǔ)的慣例啦。in the past和時(shí)態(tài)上的過(guò)去完成時(shí)決定了過(guò)去的東西肯定是不好的,要被負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)的!所以第二空格填負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)的形容詞BD,稍微辨析一下第一空,不難發(fā)現(xiàn)只能選B啦。
