1、GRE阅读备考间提高答题效率 GRE阅读备考除了练习阅读能力提升阅读词汇和长难句外，还有一样工作需要做好，那就是练习GRE阅读备考间提高答题效率，希望能够帮助到大家，来欣赏一下吧。GRE阅读备考间提高答题效率GRE阅读提高技巧1：保持好奇心在GRE阅读平时的练习中，想必大家都会经常读到一些晦涩难懂的概念，这个时候，不同的态度就会对之后的学习产生一些影响。比较积极的思考方式是“真有意思啊，我又了解到某些东西”。虽然事实上你可能一辈子也不会再读到这些*，去了美国你也只会读关于你专业的学术*，但GRE为你提供了一个平台，让你去涉猎更多的领域。当你读到美国宪法修正案、美国黑人奴隶斗争史、女性作家时试着
2、让自己置身于这样一个年代，你会发现自己更投入。而在这一过程中，你的知识面也得到了开拓，有时候还会学到一些新的词汇和其他内容，无形之中便提升了自己的英语阅读水平和知识积累。GRE阅读提高技巧2：记录新概念/事件/人物GRE阅读的pre-knowledge到底有没有用?对于这点，很多老师和学生的看法都不太相同，考虑到GRE阅读有两个难点：句子晦涩难懂和做题时间非常有限，一遍必须读懂，如果你事先对某一概念了解了，那么pre-knowledge绝对可以帮你化险为夷。但是不要把自己的观点过多的带入到*，这样会影响你的理解。而当你在阅读的时候读到了自己不熟悉的概念，可以Notebook或者Word等随时记
3、下感兴趣或者不知道想要查阅的东西，或是直接上GOOGLE搜索一下相关概念，对于以后的阅读积累也是很有帮助的。GRE阅读提高技巧3：主动去阅读这是一个再强调也不过分的习惯。做GRE阅读练习时，积极的心态十分必要，也就是主动去读，消极被动的阅读态度和习惯会让你读完一篇*根本不知道讲了什么，无形中便降低了学习效率。而主动读*最好的方法就是PEAR法。这个不是梨的意思，而是四点首字母的集合：1. Pause，读完每个段落停下来;2. Evaluate，总结大意，思考此段落的作用;3. Anticipate，预期下一段会讲什么;4. Reassess，读完下一段再对第二步的evaluate进行评估。读下
4、一段接着继续PEAR直到全文读完，Reassess全文并清晰了解全文的行文方式和逻辑构思。GRE阅读提高技巧4：Passage Map读完*用10-15秒在脑子里画一下这个*的Map，行文方式，每一段讲了什么，作者态度。这是最重要的10到15秒，很多考生忽视了这10到15秒直接跳去做题，这样你不但对整篇*做不到心中有数，更会造成读了后面忘了前面。你在每一次读完一篇GRE*，都需要在脑子里形成一个Passage Map，这是非常重要的。掌握GRE阅读中出现的转折词GRE阅读*中常用的转折词有7个：but, however, yet, though, nevertheless, nonethele
5、ss, still。其中前四个为强转折词，后三个为让步式转折。读到这里，有的同学可能会疑惑：though不是让步连接词吗?没错，though一般情况下做连词，连接让步状语从句(句内转折)。但是如果是在两个逗号之间的though，则是副词，相当于however。如这句话About the same time, though, scientists realized comets might contain decaying radioactive isotopes that could have warmed cometary interiors to temperatures that cau
6、sed the interiors to evolve. 此句表明科学家们完全不同意前一句的看法。让步式转折只要出现，必然是考点，同时也是容易丢分的点。下面我们来一起看一篇GRE阅读*：Astronomers who study planet formation once believed that cometsbecause they remain mostly in the distant Oort cloud, where temperatures are close to absolute zeromust be pristine relics of the material that
7、 formed the outer planets. The conceptual shift away from seeing comets as pristine relics began in the 1970s, when laboratory simulations revealed there was sufficient ultraviolet radiation reaching comets to darken their surfaces and there were sufficient cosmic rays to alter chemical bonds or eve
8、n molecular structure near the surface. Nevertheless, astronomers still believed that when a comet approached the Sunwhere they could study itthe Suns intense heat would remove the corrupted surface layer, exposing the interior. About the same time, though, scientists realized comets might contain d

It can be inferred that the author would agree with which of the following state
10、ments about the “laboratory simulations”?A. The simulations showed that despite the low temperatures in the Oort cloud, there was sufficient energy there to alter cometB. Astronomers were initially reluctant to accept what simulation showed about the composition of cometsC. The simulations themselve
11、s did not eliminate the possibility that comets contain pristine relics of material from the early solar system.这是一道不定项选择题。答案是AC，很多同学都选上了B选项，他们觉得 laboratory simulations这句话后马上出现了Nevertheless, astronomers still believed.， 因为nevertheless一词, 所以有的同学会觉得astronomers不会接受前一句的laboratory simulations的结果的。但是要知道，n
12、evertheless和 nonetheless一样表示的都是让步式转折，也就是说天文学家接受前一句的实验结果，但是他们持不同的观点。所谓让步式转折就是接受前面的事实陈述部分，但是不接受观点。GRE填空题的基本特征有哪些基本特征01 题目数量一个Verbal的section中总量有20题，其中填空占到10道，其余的10道题目是Reading Comprehension(阅读理解)。02 题目形式Text Completion中可以根据空格数量分成：单空题，双空题即三空题。其中单空题有五个选项，选择一个正确答案;双空题和三空题均是每空三个选项，选择一个正确答案。举例如下：单空题Early stu
