GRE閱讀提速心得講解 提升理解速度是關(guān)鍵

GRE閱讀提速先找到速度慢的主要原因

閱讀是新GRE考試恐怕最難啃的一塊骨頭，在閱讀上拿高分對很多人來講都似乎是困難重重。而對于那些準(zhǔn)備拿高分的同學(xué)來說，閱讀至少不能太差。因此，如何提高閱讀就成了一個重要的問題。第一遍首先可以利用第一遍做題尋找自己的問題，是閱讀速度不快，還是閱讀速度上去了無法理解文章，還是定位不好，還是其他問題。根據(jù)自己的問題再下一步做大量的針對性的工作。

GRE閱讀提速核心是提升理解速度

GRE閱讀速度不快是很多同學(xué)都面對的一個問題，很多參加各種考試的同學(xué)都會覺得自己的閱讀速讀達(dá)不到考試要求。對于GRE的考生來說，這種現(xiàn)象則更為普遍，畢竟有限的時間內(nèi)快速理解長短不一的多篇文章并做題速度的要求不是一般地高。從長遠(yuǎn)來看，解決辦法最重要是多讀。閱讀速讀提高不上去很大程度上是因為考生還不習(xí)慣英語到自己語言的理解，需要一個切換理解的時間。比如看到一個詞，要先想到這個詞的意思，然后理解整句話。要解決這個問題顯然就是需要熟練，不斷地接觸英語相關(guān)的資料，在不斷地閱讀中多理解，即使不是精讀也要試圖理解一片文章的大概和基本邏輯，經(jīng)過聯(lián)系使中間這個切換時間越來越短，最后達(dá)到完全不需要切換的語言感覺。短期來看，針對新GRE考試可以嘗試多做筆記，用自己熟悉的符號記錄或者標(biāo)注各種語言的重要信息，這樣做題時候回文定位會省事很多。

GRE閱讀提速要適應(yīng)文章邏輯思路

對于思路上不太適應(yīng)GRE邏輯思維的同學(xué)，平時可以多注意積累其他方面的閱讀量，哪怕是中文文章的，嘗試?yán)斫饽切┯幸欢ㄟ壿嬰y度的文章，這樣可以跳過語言這一環(huán)，直接訓(xùn)練自己的思路。對于GRE閱讀的考試(哪怕是整個GRE考試的備考來說)，我們都會發(fā)現(xiàn)背景知識越豐富，得到的幫助會更多。

備考時間充?？赏ㄟ^精讀提速

對于備考時間比較充裕的考生可以嘗試將閱讀文章做完題之后精讀，把每一個句子的意思都搞懂，都能翻譯出來，不會的單詞去查。這這個過程可以發(fā)現(xiàn)自己在語法和背景知識方面的漏洞，然后再去理解一篇文章的大意。

新GRE考試中提高閱讀速度不是一天兩天的事情，但是閱讀速度的提升對整個考試的時間是很重要的，考生們在備考過程中一定要多加練習(xí)，提高自己的閱讀速度。以上就是小編為各位考生整理的關(guān)于提高GRE閱讀速度方法的介紹，希望考生積極做好備考工作，及時調(diào)整好狀態(tài)，爭取在GRE閱讀考試中取得理想的成績!

Mycorrhizal fungi (mycorrhizal fungi: 菌根真菌) infect more plants than do any other fungi and are necessary for many plants to thrive, but they have escaped widespread investigation until recently for two reasons. First, the symbiotic association is so well-balanced that the roots of host plants show no damage even when densely infected. Second, the fungi cannot as yet (as yet: adv.至今) be cultivated in the absence of a living root. Despite these difficulties, there has been important new work that suggests that this symbiotic association can be harnessed to achieve more economical use of costly superphosphate fertilizer (superphosphate fertilizer: 過磷酸鈣肥料) and to permit better exploitation of cheaper, less soluble rock phosphate. Mycorrhizal benefits are not limited to improved phosphate uptake in host plants. In legumes, mycorrhizal inoculation has increased nitrogen fixation beyond levels achieved by adding phosphate fertilizer (phosphate fertilizer: 磷肥(料)) alone. Certain symbiotic associations also increase the host plant’s resistance to harmful root fungi. Whether this resistance results from exclusion of harmful fungi through competition for sites, from metabolic change involving antibiotic production, or from increased vigor is undetermined.

17. Which of the following most accurately describes the passage?

(A) A description of a replicable experiment

(B) A summary report of new findings

(C) A recommendation for abandoning a difficult area of research

(D) A refutation of an earlier hypothesis

(E) A confirmation of earlier research

18. The level of information in the passage above is suited to the needs of all of the following people EXCEPT:

(A) a researcher whose job is to identify potentially profitable areas for research and product development

(B) a state official whose position requires her to alert farmers about possible innovations in farming

(C) an official of a research foundation who identifies research projects for potential funding

(D) a biologist attempting to keep up with scientific developments in an area outside of his immediate area of specialization

(E) a botanist conducting experiments to determine the relationship between degree of mycorrhizal infection and expected uptake of phosphate

19. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following has been a factor influencing the extent to which research on mycorrhizal fungi has progressed?

(A) Lack of funding for such research

(B) Lack of immediate application of such research

(C) Lack of a method for identifying mycorrhizal fungi

(D) Difficulties surrounding laboratory production of specimens for study

(E) Difficulties ensuing from the high cost and scarcity of superphosphate fertilizers

20. The passage suggests which of the following about the increased resistance to harmful root fungi that some plants infected with mycorrhizal fungi seem to exhibit?

(A) There are at least three hypotheses that might account for the increase.

(B) An explanation lies in the fact that mycorrhizal fungi increase more rapidly in number than harmful root fungi do.

(C) The plants that show increased resistance also exhibit improved nitrogen fixation.

(D) Such increases may be independent of mycorrhizal infection.

(E) It is unlikely that a satisfactory explanation can be found to account for the increase.

In the early 1950’s, historians who studied preindustrial Europe (which we may define here as Europe in the period from roughly 1300 to 1800) began, for the first time in large numbers, to investigate more of the preindustrial European population than the 2 or 3 percent who comprised the political and social elite: the kings, generals, judges, nobles, bishops, and local magnates who had hitherto usually filled history books. One difficulty, however, was that few of the remaining 97 percent recorded their thoughts or had them chronicled by contemporaries. Faced with this situation, many historians based their investigations on the only records that seemed to exist: birth, marriage, and death records. As a result, much of the early work on the nonelite was aridly statistical in nature; reducing the vast majority of the population to a set of numbers was hardly more enlightening than ignoring them altogether. Historians still did not know what these people thought or felt.

One way out of this dilemma was to turn to the records of legal courts, for here the voices of the nonelite can most often be heard, as witnesses, plaintiffs, and defendants. These documents have acted as “a point of entry into the mental world of the poor.” Historians such as Le Roy Ladurie have used the documents to extract case histories, which have illuminated the attitudes of different social groups (these attitudes include, but are not confined to, attitudes toward crime and the law) and have revealed how the authorities administered justice. It has been societies that have had a developed police system and practiced Roman law (Roman law: n.羅馬法the legal system of the ancient Romans that includes written and unwritten law, is based on the traditional law and the legislation of the city of Rome, and in form comprises legislation of the assemblies, resolves of the senate, enactments of the emperors, edicts of the praetors, writings of the jurisconsults, and the codes of the later emperors), with its written depositions, whose court records have yielded the most data to historians. In Anglo-Saxon countries hardly any of these benefits obtain, but it has still been possible to glean information from the study of legal documents.

The extraction of case histories is not, however, the only use to which court records may be put. Historians who study preindustrial Europe have used the records to establish a series of categories of crime and to quantify indictments that were issued over a given number of years. This use of the records does yield some information about the nonelite, but this information gives us little insight into the mental lives of the nonelite. We also know that the number of indictments in preindustrial Europe bears little relation to the number of actual criminal acts, and we strongly suspect that the relationship has varied widely over time. In addition, aggregate population estimates are very shaky, which makes it difficult for historians to compare rates of crime per thousand in one decade of the preindustrial period with rates in another decade. Given these inadequacies, it is clear why the case history use of court records is to be preferred.

21. The author suggests that, before the early 1950’s, most historians who studied preindustrial Europe did which of the following?

(A) Failed to make distinctions among members of the preindustrial European political and social elite.

(B) Used investigatory methods that were almost exclusively statistical in nature.

(C) Inaccurately estimated the influence of the preindustrial European political and social elite.

(D) Confined their work to a narrow range of the preindustrial European population.

(E) Tended to rely heavily on birth, marriage, and death records.

22. According to the passage, the case histories extracted by historians have

(A) scarcely illuminated the attitudes of the political and social elite

(B) indicated the manner in which those in power apportioned justice

(C) focused almost entirely on the thoughts and feelings of different social groups toward crime and the law

(D) been considered the first kind of historical writing that utilized the records of legal courts

(E) been based for the most part on the trial testimony of police and other legal authorities

23. It can be inferred from the passage that much of the early work by historians on the European nonelite of the preindustrial period might have been more illuminating if these historians had

(A) used different methods of statistical analysis to investigate the nonelite

(B) been more successful in identifying the attitudes of civil authorities, especially those who administered justice, toward the nonelite

(C) been able to draw on more accounts, written by contemporaries of the nonelite, that described what this nonelite thought

(D) relied more heavily on the personal records left by members of the European political and social elite who lived during the period in question

(E) been more willing to base their research on the birth, marriage, and death records of the nonelite

24. The author mentions Le Roy Ladurie (line 26) in order to

(A) give an example of a historian who has made one kind of use of court records

(B) cite a historian who has based case histories on the birth, marriage, and death records of the nonelite

(C) identify the author of the quotation cited in the previous sentence

(D) gain authoritative support for the view that the case history approach is the most fruitful approach to court records

(E) point out the first historian to realize the value of court records in illuminating the beliefs and values of the nonelite

25. According to the passage, which of the following is true of indictments for crime in Europe in the preindustrial period?

(A) They have, in terms of their numbers, remained relatively constant over time.

(B) They give the historian important information about the mental lives of those indicted.

(C) They are not a particularly accurate indication of the extent of actual criminal activity.

(D) Their importance to historians of the nonelite has been generally overestimated.

(E) Their problematic relationship to actual crime has not been acknowledged by most historians.

26. It can be inferred from the passage that a historian who wished to compare crime rates per thousand in a European city in one decade of the fifteenth century with crime rates in another decade of that century would probably be most aided by better information about which of the following?

(A) The causes of unrest in the city during the two decades

(B) The aggregate number of indictments in the city nearest to the city under investigation during the two decades

(C) The number of people who lived in the city during each of the decades under investigation

(D) The mental attitudes of criminals in the city, including their feelings about authority, during each of the decades under investigation

(E) The possibilities for a member of the city’s nonelite to become a member of the political and social elite during the two decades

27. The passage would be most likely to appear as part of

(A) a book review summarizing the achievements of historians of the European aristocracy

(B) an essay describing trends in the practice of writing history

(C) a textbook on the application of statistical methods in the social sciences

(D) a report to the historical profession on the work of early-twentieth-century historians

(E) an article urging the adoption of historical methods by the legal profession
