如何戰(zhàn)勝GRE閱讀中的攔路虎?3種角度為你帶來精品解析

在新GRE考試中，GRE閱讀的難度明顯增加，考生在備考及考試過程中，通常會遇到哪些障礙呢?都有什么辦法可以解決呢?小編將為大家分析一下GRE閱讀中常見的攔路虎及應(yīng)對策略，希望對大家GRE備考有所幫助。

障礙一：單詞不認(rèn)識

嚴(yán)重的單詞障礙使得閱讀學(xué)習(xí)進(jìn)展艱難，有時候雖然單詞也背了幾遍，但是看到閱讀文章時仍是滿眼生詞，一頭霧水，文章根本就讀不下去。針對這種情況，可以在讀閱讀文章的時候試著忽略復(fù)雜專業(yè)名詞的具體含義，因為有些專業(yè)名詞很少見。雖然忽略掉，在做題的時候也會沒有影響，例如一種叫rhinoviruses的病毒可以抽象為“R”病毒。另外，還可以積累一些單詞。例如，閱讀一篇文章過后，可以挑出一些你認(rèn)為比較重要的詞進(jìn)行累積，后來你會發(fā)現(xiàn)進(jìn)步是很大的。

障礙二：句子讀不懂

有時候句子中的單詞都認(rèn)識，但是這個句子就是讀不懂，不知道在講什么，甚至連句子的主謂賓都找不到。這就說明GRE的長難句是一個問題。針對這種情況，需要對句子的結(jié)構(gòu)有一個透徹的了解，其中句子中的幾個難點是：修飾成分繁多，倒裝，插入語，多重否定等，這是需要采用集中突破的方法。另外，還需要不畏懼困難，多對句子做一些分析和研究，找句子的主干，分析讀不懂的原因。

考場上基本上是要求16-17分鐘做完閱讀題的部分，而實際情況是現(xiàn)在的做題速度慢極了，根本達(dá)不到要求。這是多數(shù)考生會遇到的問題。其主要原因是花在讀原文的時間太長了，所以讀一篇文章要達(dá)到兩個目的即可：1. 主旨題和作者觀點題要做對;2. 關(guān)注、標(biāo)記一些常考考點為定位使用。

障礙三：文章讀完沒有印象

讀過文章之后什么也不記得，又重新認(rèn)認(rèn)真真地讀完一篇，結(jié)果是后面看完了前面的也忘記，根本不知道文章在講些什么。這其中是有一定的原因的，就是想要記住的太多，搞得什么也沒記住。針對這種情況可以只記住比較重要的話，例如文章的主旨句，首段、每段首句，全文末句等，作者的態(tài)度等。還有一點就是平時需要積累哪些是需要記住的，哪些是不需要記住的。

以上就是小編為大家整理的GRE閱讀中常見的攔路虎及應(yīng)對策略，相信大家結(jié)合自己的具體情況，用心準(zhǔn)備，有針對性的復(fù)習(xí)提高，一定會戰(zhàn)勝它們，抵達(dá)夢想的彼岸!

GRE考試閱讀理解模擬題及答案解析

It is a popular misconception that nuclear fusion power is free of radioactivity; in fact, the deuterium-tritium reaction that nuclear scientists are currently exploring with such zeal produces both alpha particles and neutrons.(The neutrons are used to produce tritium from a lithium blanket surrounding the reactor.)

Another common misconception is that nuclear fusion power is a virtually unlimited source of energy because of the enormous quantity of deuterium in the sea.

Actually, its limits are set by the amount of available lithium, which is about as plentiful as uranium in the Earth‘s crust. Research should certainly continue on controlled nuclear fusion, but no energy program should be premised on its existence until it has (been) proven practical. (122 words)

1. It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes which of the following about the current state of public awareness concerning nuclear fusion power?

(A) The public has been deliberately misinformed about the advantages and disadvantages of nuclear fusion power.

(B) The public is unaware of the principal advantage of nuclear fusion over nuclear fussion as an energy source.

(D) The public is not interested in increasing its awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of nuclear fusion power.

(E) The public is aware of the disadvantages of nuclear fusion power but not of its advantages.

For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply

2. The passage provides information that would answer which of the following questions EXCEPT?

□A How much incidental radiation is produced in the deuterium tritium fusion reaction?

□B What is likely to be the principal source of deuterium for nuclear fusion power?

□C Why are scientists exploring the deuterium-tritium fusion reaction with such zeal?

Roger Rosenblatt‘s book Black Fiction, in attempting to apply literary rather than sociopolitical criteria to its subject, successfully alters the approach taken by most previous studies.

As Rosenblatt notes, criticism of Black writing has often served as a pretext for expounding on Black history.

Addison Gayle‘s recent work, for example, judges the value of Black fiction by overtly political standards, rating each work according to the notions of Black identity which it propounds.

Although fiction assuredly springs from political circumstances, its authors react to those circumstances in ways other than ideological, and talking about novels and stories primarily as instruments of ideology circumvents much of the fictional enterprise.

Rosenblatt‘s literary analysis discloses affinities and connections among works of Black fiction which solely political studies have overlooked or ignored.

Writing acceptable criticism of Black fiction, however, presupposes giving satisfactory answers to a number of questions.

First of all, is there a sufficient reason, other than the racial identity of the authors, to group together works by Black authors?

Second, how does Black fiction make itself distinct from other modern fiction with which it is largely contemporaneous?

Rosenblatt shows that Black fiction constitutes a distinct body of writing that has an identifiable, coherent literary tradition.

Looking at novels written by Blacks over the last eighty years, he discovers recurring concerns and designs independent of chronology.

These structures are thematic, and they spring, not surprisingly, from the central fact that the Black characters in these novels exist in a predominantly White culture, whether they try to conform to that culture or rebel against it.

Black Fiction does leave some aesthetic questions open.

Rosenblatt‘s thematic analysis permits considerable objectivity; he even explicitly states that it is not his intention to judge the merit of the various works—yet his reluctance seems misplaced, especially since an attempt to appraise might have led to interesting results.

For instance, some of the novels appear to be structurally diffuse. Is this a defect, or are the authors working out of, or trying to forge, a different kind of aesthetic?

In addition, the style of some Black novels, like Jean Toomer‘s Cane, verges on expressionism or surrealism; does this technique provide a counterpoint to the prevalent theme that portrays the fate against which Black heroes are pitted, a theme usually conveyed by more naturalistic modes of expression?

In spite of such omissions, what Rosenblatt does include in his discussion makes for an astute and worthwhile study.

Black Fiction surveys a wide variety of novels, bringing to our attention in the process some fascinating and little-known works like James Weldon Johnson‘s Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man.

Its argument is tightly constructed, and its forthright, lucid style exemplifies levelheaded and penetrating criticism.

3. The author of the passage objects to criticism of Black fiction like that by Addison Gayle because it

(A) emphasizes purely literary aspects of such fiction

(B) misinterprets the ideological content of such fiction

(D) substitutes political for literary criteria in evaluating such fiction

(E) ignores the interplay between Black history and Black identity displayed in such fiction

4. The author of the passage is primarily concerned with

(A) evaluating the soundness of a work of criticism

(B) comparing various critical approaches to a subject

(D) summarizing the major points made in a work of criticism

(E) explaining the theoretical background of a certain kind of criticism

5. The author of the passage believes that Black Fiction would have been improved had Rosenblatt

(A) evaluated more carefully the ideological and historical aspects of Black fiction

(B) attempted to be more objective in his approach to novels and stories by Black authors

(D) established a basis for placing Black fiction within its own unique literary tradition

(E) assessed the relative literary merit of the novels he analyzes thematically

6. The author of the passage refers to James Weldon Johnson‘s Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man most probably in order to

(A) point out affinities between Rosenblatt‘s method of thematic analysis and earlier criticism

(B) clarify the point about expressionistic style made earlier in the passage

(D) illustrate the affinities among Black novels disclosed by Rosenblatt‘s literary analysis

(E) give a specific example of one of the accomplishments of Rosenblatt‘s work

The transfer of heat and water vapor from the ocean to the air above it depends on a disequilibrium at the interface of the water and the air.

Within about a millimeter of the water, air temperature is close to that of the surface water, and the air is nearly saturated with water vapor.

But the differences, however small, are crucial, and the disequilibrium is maintained by air near the surface mixing with air higher up, which is typically appreciably cooler and lower in water-vapor content.

The air is mixed by means of turbulence that depends on the wind for its energy.

As wind speed increases, so does turbulence, and thus the rate of heat and moisture transfer.

Detailed understanding of this phenomenon awaits further study. (127 words)

For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply

7. According to the passage, wind over the ocean generally does which of the following?

□A Causes relatively cool, dry air to come into proximity with the ocean surface.

□B Maintains a steady rate of heat and moisture transfer between the ocean and the air.

□C Causes frequent changes in the temperature of the water at the ocean‘s surface.

8. The passage suggests that if on a certain day the wind were to decrease until there was no wind at all which of the following would occur?

(A) The air closest to the ocean surface would become saturated with water vapor.

(B) The air closest to the ocean surface would be warmer than the water.

(D) The rate of heat and moisture transfer would increase.

(E) The air closest to the ocean would be at the same temperature as air higher up.

“I want to criticize the social system, and to show it at work, at its most intense.”

Virginia Woolf‘s provocative statement about her intentions in writing Mrs. Dalloway has regularly been ignored by the critics, since it highlights an aspect of her literary interests very different from the traditional picture of the “poetic” novelist concerned with examining states of reverie and vision and with following the intricate pathways of individual consciousness.

But Virginia Woolf was a realist as well as a poetic novelist, a satirist and social critic as well as a visionary: literary critics‘ cavalier dismissal of Woolf‘s social vision will not withstand scrutiny.

In her novels, Woolf is deeply engaged by the questions of how individuals are shaped (or deformed) by their social environments, how historical forces impinge on people‘s lives, how class, wealth, and gender help to determine people‘s fates.

Most of her novels are rooted in a realistically rendered social setting and in a precise historical time. (163 words)

9. In the first paragraph of the passage, the author‘s attitude toward the literary critics mentioned can best be described as

(A) disparaging

(B) ironic

(D) skeptical but resigned

(E) disappointed but hopeful

10. It can be inferred from the passage that the most probable reason Woolf realistically described the social setting in the majority of her novels was that she

(A) was aware that contemporary literary critics considered the novel to be the most realistic of literary genres

(B) was interested in the effect of a person‘s social milieu on his or her character and actions

(D) wanted to show that a painstaking fidelity in the representation of reality did not in any way hamper the artist

(E) wished to prevent critics from charging that her novels were written in an ambiguous and inexact style

11. In the context of the passage, “poetic” is closest in meaning to

(A) socioeconomic

(B) realistic

(D) visionary

(E) literary

一個廣為流傳的誤解，是核聚變能源不具備放射性;實際上，當(dāng)下核科學(xué)的熱門研究領(lǐng)域氘氚反應(yīng)，會同時釋放阿爾法粒子和中子。(中子來自于包裹核反應(yīng)堆的鋰層，用于制取氘)

Another common misconception is that nuclear fusion power is a virtually unlimited source of energy because of the enormous quantity of deuterium in the sea.

核聚變能源取之不盡，這是另一個普遍的誤解，理由是海洋中蘊含了不可計數(shù)量的氘。

Actually, its limits are set by the amount of available lithium, which is about as plentiful as uranium in the Earth‘s crust.

其實，限制在于我們能獲得多少鋰，鋰的含量大致與地殼中的鈾含量相當(dāng)。

Research should certainly continue on controlled nuclear fusion, but no energy program should be premised on its existence until it has (been) proven practical. (122 words)

關(guān)于可控核聚變的研究當(dāng)然該繼續(xù)，但任何能源項目在證實可實際操作前，都不該倉促上馬。

(

premise 此句中做 postulate “假設(shè)”解釋。

practical 切合實際的，此句中可以意譯地理解為“安全可行的”。

比較直接的翻譯是，……沒有證明核能項目安全可行之前，任何項目都不該假設(shè)它存在。

我懷疑原文少了一個 been ，認(rèn)為除非加上否則不通，雖然所有網(wǎng)上我查到的來源都沒有這個 been 。如果你有更好的解釋，或提出關(guān)于文本及翻譯的其他錯漏，請留言給我，愿一起努力打造一個質(zhì)量更高的注釋集。

)

1. It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes which of the following about the current state of public awareness concerning nuclear fusion power?

(A) The public has been deliberately misinformed about the advantages and disadvantages of nuclear fusion power.

(B) The public is unaware of the principal advantage of nuclear fusion over nuclear fussion as an energy source.

(D) The public is not interested in increasing its awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of nuclear fusion power.

(E) The public is aware of the disadvantages of nuclear fusion power but not of its advantages.

選C

A 實在看不出公眾是故意去誤解的，deliberately，不選;

B “公眾忽視了核聚變作為一種能源的主要優(yōu)點”，文中只說兩種誤解，沒說什么主要優(yōu)點，不選;

C 正確項，公眾關(guān)于核聚變能的一些科學(xué)事實的看法是扭曲和不完整的(誤解);

D 有沒有 interested 或 increasing ，無從判斷，不選;

E 啊，讓人疲勞的瞎聊。

For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply

2. The passage provides information that would answer which of the following questions EXCEPT?

□A How much incidental radiation is produced in the deuterium tritium fusion reaction?

□B What is likely to be the principal source of deuterium for nuclear fusion power?

□C Why are scientists exploring the deuterium-tritium fusion reaction with such zeal?

選AC

只有 B 項提出的問題可以用文中明確指出的信息回答，句2，“海洋中的氘”。所以選AC。

Roger Rosenblatt‘s book Black Fiction, in attempting to apply literary rather than sociopolitical criteria to its subject, successfully alters the approach taken by most previous studies.

RR的書《B F 》，試圖運用文學(xué)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)而不是社會政治的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)去評價它的研究對象，成功地改變了之前的研究方法。

As Rosenblatt notes, criticism of Black writing has often served as a pretext for expounding on Black history.

R表示，許多所謂的關(guān)于黑人寫作的評論，實際上關(guān)注的是黑人歷史。

(

Black 大寫做形容詞時，“黑人(人種)的”，可以指非洲黑人，或移居北美的非洲黑人及其后代組成的黑人群體。

pretext 借口，托詞。

“對于黑人寫作的評論，經(jīng)常作為詳述黑人歷史的借口” ，意譯一下，有些研究表面上是在討論黑人寫作，其實黑人寫作只是幌子(借口，pretext)，真正要探討的問題是關(guān)于黑人歷史的。

)

Addison Gayle‘s recent work, for example, judges the value of Black fiction by overtly political standards, rating each work according to the notions of Black identity which it propounds.

比如說，AG最近的研究，用過度政治化的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)評判黑人小說的價值，根據(jù)每部作品所討論的黑人身份概念來評價其價值。

小說當(dāng)然脫胎于政治環(huán)境，但作者回應(yīng)環(huán)境卻并非遵循意識形態(tài)化的方式，一旦講述新奇故事成為意識形態(tài)宣傳的工具，就制約了小說的發(fā)展。

Rosenblatt‘s literary analysis discloses affinities and connections among works of Black fiction which solely political studies have overlooked or ignored.

R的文學(xué)分析解釋了黑人小說作品間的相似與聯(lián)系，單純的政治研究往往忽略這些內(nèi)容。

Writing acceptable criticism of Black fiction, however, presupposes giving satisfactory answers to a number of questions.

然而，想要寫出令人滿意的黑人小說評論，意味著針對一系列問題給出令人滿意的答案。

First of all, is there a sufficient reason, other than the racial identity of the authors, to group together works by Black authors?

首先，拋開作者們相同的種族，有其他充分的理由將黑人小說歸為一類嗎?

Second, how does Black fiction make itself distinct from other modern fiction with which it is largely contemporaneous?

第二，相較于其他同時代的現(xiàn)代小說類型，黑人小說的獨特之處是什么?

Rosenblatt shows that Black fiction constitutes a distinct body of writing that has an identifiable, coherent literary tradition.

R展示了黑人小說所組成的一個特別的文學(xué)體系，該體系具有的一種可識別的，條理分明的文學(xué)傳統(tǒng)。

Looking at novels written by Blacks over the last eighty years, he discovers recurring concerns and designs independent of chronology.

仔細(xì)研究了過去80年的黑人小說，R發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些與年代無關(guān)的反復(fù)出現(xiàn)的關(guān)注點和設(shè)計。

這些結(jié)構(gòu)是關(guān)乎主題的，而且都不出人意料地，發(fā)端于這樣一個核心事實，小說中的黑人角色都出現(xiàn)在一個白人主導(dǎo)的文化中，無論他們嘗試適應(yīng)這種文化或與之對抗。

Black Fiction does leave some aesthetic questions open.

《B F 》還有一些美學(xué)問題沒有回答。

R的主題分析表現(xiàn)出相當(dāng)?shù)目陀^性;他甚至明確表示他無意評判不同作品的價值——盡管他的保留似乎沒有必要，特別是既然評價的嘗試可能引發(fā)有趣的結(jié)果。

For instance, some of the novels appear to be structurally diffuse. Is this a defect, or are the authors working out of, or trying to forge, a different kind of aesthetic?

比如說，某些小說的看似結(jié)構(gòu)散亂。這是一種缺陷嗎，還是作者刻意為之，抑或嘗試偽造一種不同的美學(xué)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)?

另外，一些黑人小說的風(fēng)格，比如JTC，非常接近表現(xiàn)主義或超自然主義;該技巧是否提供了一種對照，相較于最流行的描述黑人英雄對抗命運的主題，一種經(jīng)常通過更自然主義的表達(dá)方式傳遞的主題?

In spite of such omissions, what Rosenblatt does include in his discussion makes for an astute and worthwhile study.

盡管存在諸如此類的種.種遺漏，R已完成的討論確實是敏銳的又有價值的研究。

Black Fiction surveys a wide variety of novels, bringing to our attention in the process some fascinating and little-known works like James Weldon Johnson‘s Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man.

《B F 》全面研究了相當(dāng)多的小說，討論過程中使我們注意到一些少有問津的迷人作品，比如 JWJ 的《AoaECM 》。

Its argument is tightly constructed, and its forthright, lucid style exemplifies levelheaded and penetrating criticism.

它的觀點結(jié)構(gòu)嚴(yán)密，作者直截了當(dāng)、簡明易讀的風(fēng)格，堪稱條理清晰，深刻敏銳的典范。

3. The author of the passage objects to criticism of Black fiction like that by Addison Gayle because it

(A) emphasizes purely literary aspects of such fiction

(B) misinterprets the ideological content of such fiction

(D) substitutes political for literary criteria in evaluating such fiction

(E) ignores the interplay between Black history and Black identity displayed in such fiction

選D

作者反對AG那種黑人小說評論的理由是：D項，用政治標(biāo)準(zhǔn)取代了文學(xué)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，見句 2-5 。

4. The author of the passage is primarily concerned with

(A) evaluating the soundness of a work of criticism

(B) comparing various critical approaches to a subject

(D) summarizing the major points made in a work of criticism

(E) explaining the theoretical background of a certain kind of criticism

選A

A 評估一種文學(xué)評論作品的嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)恰當(dāng)與否

B 比較關(guān)于某一研究對象的不同評論方法

C 討論某特定類型的批評的局限

D 概要地介紹某評論作品的主要觀點

E 解釋某特定類型評論的理論背景

整體來看，作者一直在論述R的批評如何成立，兼論怎么做會更好，所以選A。

5. The author of the passage believes that Black Fiction would have been improved had Rosenblatt

(A) evaluated more carefully the ideological and historical aspects of Black fiction

(B) attempted to be more objective in his approach to novels and stories by Black authors

(D) established a basis for placing Black fiction within its own unique literary tradition

(E) assessed the relative literary merit of the novels he analyzes thematically

選E

“在分析作品主題時，(也一并)評估相關(guān)作品的文學(xué)價值”，見句13-16。

(

說句題外話，我認(rèn)為文段的作者的這種態(tài)度，就是雞蛋里挑骨頭，一種評論之所以成立，就是因為它已經(jīng)成立的部分，如同一本小說好就因為它好的地方，說什么“如果怎樣怎樣就更好了”是沒有任何意義的，是站著說話不腰疼的，既然作者有那么多文學(xué)批評的建設(shè)理想，何不自己寫出來。

)

6. The author of the passage refers to James Weldon Johnson‘s Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man most probably in order to

(A) point out affinities between Rosenblatt‘s method of thematic analysis and earlier criticism

(B) clarify the point about expressionistic style made earlier in the passage

(D) illustrate the affinities among Black novels disclosed by Rosenblatt‘s literary analysis

(E) give a specific example of one of the accomplishments of Rosenblatt‘s work

選E

“舉例說明R的研究的一項成就”，見句17，所謂 accomplishment 就是使我們注意到一些以前沒人知道的好作品。
