1、GRE填空5大高难度题型应对技巧实例精讲 GRE填空中难题众多,许多题目仅靠过硬的词汇量常常难以顺利解答,考生除了积累词汇量还需要进行一些解题技巧方面的磨炼和加强才能顺利应对各类难题。下面就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。GRE填空5大高难度题型应对技巧实例精讲 最实用TC保分解题思路汇总1. 已知概念互补在读完题后,以最快的速度整理区分出两个(甚至三个)概念,当这些概念在题目的另一处被复述时,可用这些已知的概念进行双重或多重互补以达到解题的目的。真题实例The most technologically advanced societies have been responsible for the
2、 greatest_; indeed, savagery seems to be in direct proportion to_.(A) wars . viciousness(B) catastrophes . ill-will(C) atrocities . development(D) inventions . know-how(E) triumphs . civilization题目解析在第一个句子中,可从主语中整理出“社会的技术发达”这一概念并将其设定为概念A;即使宾语表现为空格,仍可将其设定为未知的概念B。在两个句子间出现的分号和indeed一词标志着第二个句子是对第一个句子的复述
3、。在第二个句子中,主语savagery由于与第一个句子的概念A(技术的发达)含义不同,故可设定为概念B。自此为止,概念A和B全部已知,只需将savagery移入空格,将advanced变作名语后移入空格,便求得正确选项(C)2. 分析短语结构如果在某一空格的前部或后部出现下述短语结构a.现在分词短语,b.过去分词短语,c.形容词短语,d.同位语短语,e.介词结构 ,f.动词不定式结构则所有这些短语结构或是在空格前作预先的铺砌,埋下一处线索,或是在空格后作补充陈述,以示强调。空格的答案均可以同义词的方式从这些短语结构中求取。真题实例The self-important cant of music
4、ologists on record jackets often suggests that true appreciation of the music is an _ process closed to the uninitiated listeners, however enthusiastic.(A) unreliable(B) arcane(C) arrogant(D) elementary(E) intuitive题目解析如果音乐欣赏正是过去分词短语中所描述的那样,是closed to the uninitiated listeners的话,那全然是因为这一过程已变成(B) arc
5、ane的缘故。3. 寻找对立反义线索凡是出现but, yet, however, nevertheless, although, (even) though, while, whereas, notwithstanding, despite, in spite of, in contrast (to), on the contrary, on the other hand, whatever, otherwise, ironically, paradoxically, curiously, surprisingly 等带有转折逆转含义的题目,则代入空格的正确选项必与中心线索构成语义对立的反义词
6、关系。真题实例Most plant species exhibit _ in their geographical distribution: often, a given species is found over a large geographical area, but individual populations within that range are widely _ .Blank (i) Blank (ii)A discontinuity D separatedB density E observedC concentration F adaptable题目解析a. 第二空应
7、填入一个形容词,but引导前后的转折,所以第二空应与is found over a large geographical area形成对比,所以在DEF三个选项中D.分开的符合题意;E选项与found同义,没有发生转折所以不合适;F,可适应的,无关项。所以只有D选项符合题意。b. 第一空应填入一个名词来表示多数植物物种(Most plant species )在地理分布上的一种特点(in their geographical distribution),冒号引导前后解释,后面在讲单个种群是分开的,所以体现了一种不连续性,对应选项A。c. 综上,AD。4. 逆向推导先后再前本方法是利用题目后一部
8、分中的线索,推断出设置于题目前一部分中空格所需的内涵。真题实例Science advances in _spiral in that each new conceptual scheme _the phenomena explained by its predecessors and adds to those explanations.(A) a discontinuous . decries(B) a repetitive . vitiates(C) a widening . embrace(D) an anomalous . captures(E) an explosive . ques
9、tions题目解析本题主从句之间以in that(即等于because)连接,示意两部分之间的因果关系。在表示原因的题目后半部分中,以and连接了两个动词谓语结构,标志着两项原因的存在。与此相对应,在题目前半部分中,in.spiral 表示着两项结果。名词spiral(螺旋形)作为一种隐喻,意味着“重复”这一概念。而题末的adds to those explanations则表过了全新内容的增加这一“发展”的概念。按线索互补的原则,将adds to those explanations形容词化后代入空格,则求得(C) widening;名词spiral动词化之后代入空格,则求得(C) embr
10、aces。5. 并列关系找同义词“and”是并列关系中最典型的一个连接词。此外,indeed, just as, also, almost, even, similarly, correspondingly, accordingly, in the same way 等亦属并列关系。总之,凡是不含对立转折关系的大多可列入关列关系,解题时只需将相应的中心线索定位,找出一个同义词的选项即可。真题实例The hierarchy of medical occupations is in many ways a _ system; its strata remain_ and the practitio
11、ners in them have very little vertical mobility.Blank (i) Blank (ii)A caste D flexibleB training E intactC health F inferior题目解析a. 第一空是一道很明显的收敛逻辑题目。直接收敛逻辑的方法来解题非常迅速。第一句在说“医生职业的等级体系在诸多方面是一个什么体系”。说简单了,等级体系只能是等级体系。所以第一空直接和hierarchy对应即可。直接选出A, caste,等级制度。b. 第二空填入一个形容词来修饰这个等级体系中的每一个层级的属性。and并列两个具有 相同属性的事
12、物,所以从and后面找对线索:“其中的从业医师没有太大的垂直流动性(the practitioners in them have very little vertical mobility.)说明没一个层级是非常固定的。所以对应选项E. intact : having no relevant component removed or destroyed。c. 综上,AD。综上所述,GRE填空中想要保证正确率和得分,同时提升解题速度,只靠词汇量还是远远不够的。上文中提到的这些解题技巧,还是希望大家能够及早学习并掌握,如此才能更好地应对GRE填空中可能出现的各类难题。GRE填空500题词汇精选真题
