新版gre考试填空也是考察考生的词汇量,新版gre考试填空题有以前五选一,一空题,有这种六选二就是同意词匹配,那么同意词匹配上就会出现一些相对,比以前填空题就是范围之外的一些相关词汇,包括填空题还有三个问题,三个问题里面,就是它的句子长度和难度比以前有所增长,比以前两空题有所增长,所以也会出现一些相对应题目。
这些题目没有超出以前词汇量得范围,就比以前的类反词汇数量减少,但是比现在,如果单纯从填空角度来看,就是以前填空词汇数量相对还是比较少的,现在增长一些,那么有一定难度的相关词汇。
另外,新版gre考后我们分析一下题目的数量。新版gre考试填空填空题是10道,然后阅读题10道。一般情况下如果新版gre考试填空题目是10道的话,三空题可能占了三道四道,一空题一般两道左右,那么两空题是两道三道,然后再就是三空题两道三道,一般考试都会这样分配。
通过第一次的新版gre考后分析,新版gre考试填空并没有出现新的句型、句式,这对于考生来说,复习时可以稍微轻松一些。只要平时多注意练习,相信对于新版gre考试填空还是可以从容应对的。
新gre考试填空三空题考察内容与做题方法与篇章填空题类似,只是题干篇幅更长,逻辑结构更为复杂些,需要推导的层次也增多,但是新gre考试填空并没有出现新的句型。希望同学们认真备考。
以上即是小编为大家搜索整理的7个新gre填空题应试技巧,新gre填空考试更加注重实际运用语言能力的考察,所以考生在备考时除了注意同义词词汇的积累,还要加深对阅读理解能力的训练,因此大量阅读训练也必不可少。
新gre填空题对词汇与阅读理解能力的考查明显增多,需要各位考生认真备考,可以从近5年的考试题里摸索一些出题规律,总结出最适合自己的备考方法。
想要在备考GRE填空题的过程中拿到更高的分数,大家就需要在平时的备考中抓住规律并且适当的应用。只是了解这些规律是完全不够的,不能应用到实际的做题中是不能发挥任何作用的。
1、特点:分隔结构通常为定语从句,同位语从句,非谓语结构,介词短语结构。分隔结构一旦在空格之后出现,则成为该空格的答案的线索源泉;而如这些分隔中本身有空格,则应该从分隔前的结构中寻找解题的信息。
如果分隔中或者分隔前都没有空格出现,这个分隔就是一个无用的分隔,一个冗余的信息,阅读时跳过。这些干扰理解的分隔结构常会出现在主从句中,比如因果句中的because之后为逗号,不直接出现原因从句,而先出现分隔;或者although之后先出现分隔,然后再出现真正的转折从句等等。一律先跳过分隔,将真正的因果,转折,并列等主干逻辑读出来,题目答案已经八九不离十了,节省了做题的时间。
2、处理方法:先读主干,后读分隔。用空格出现与否来判定分隔是不是对解题有用的部分,有用的则依照“空格在前分隔中有答案,包含空格之前有答案”的原则求解,跳过没有作用的空格。
3、特别提醒:两空格的位置是分隔之前和分隔之中,这样的填空解题线索范围很小,类似点对点的“影子也是空格”,两空间没有取反线索,则两空是同义,有则是反义,另外要注意的是往往前一空的意思比后一空来得全面,甚至后一空只是前一空意思的一部分。
举例说明:找出两对同义词。
37.5. Although some consider forcefulness and persistence to be two traits desirable to the same degree, I think that making a violent effort is much less useful than maintaining a steady one.
58.3. Joe spoke of superfluous and vital matters with exactly the same degree of intensity, as though for him serious mattered neither more nor less than did trivialities.
9.2. A perennial goal in zoology is to infer function from structure, relating the behavior of am organism to its physical form and cellular organization.
11.7. When theories formerly considered to be disinterested in their scientific objectivity are found instead to reflect a consistent observational and evaluative bias, then the presumed neutrality of science gives way to the recognition that categories of knowledge are human construction.
值得说明的是,寻找同义重复的意识和能力不仅对于GRE填空重要,对于GRE阅读理解同样重要。
阅读段落,找同义词反义词。(摘自黄皮书阅读理解教程(中国环境科学出版社)E36,P160)
The most vivid expression of such errors occurs in genetically identical( isogenic ) organisms. Even when reared under the same conditions, isogenic organisms are rarely exact copies of one another, and their differences have revealed much about the random variations that result from an organism’s limited supply of genetic information. In isogenic Daphniae, for example, even though the position, size, and branching pattern of each optic neuron are remarkably constant, there is some variability in connectivity, and the number of synapses varies greatly. This variability is probably the result of random scatter beyond the resolution of genetic control and is best termed “imprecision”, since its converse, the degree of clustering about a mean, is conventionally, called “precision”.
在该段中, “同样”的意思用了很多种表达方法:identical; same; exact copies; constant; precision
“不同”的意思也用了很多种表达方法:errors; difference; random variations; variability; varies; random scatter; imprecison
同位语从句和定语从句在句子结构上有一定的相似,容易使人混淆.要注意在同位语从句中that, what, who等连接代(副)词在句中并不充当句子成分。
在进行英文阅读时,要注意同位语与本位语分割的现象,这种现象常常会造成阅读理解上的困难,特别是发生在句子结构本身十分复杂的时候。例如:
The word radar, coined as a code name in World War II, was derived from the phrase Radio Detection And Ranging.这句话的中文意思是radar(雷达)这个词,是第二次世界大战期间作为一个代号而造出来的,是Radio Detection And Ranging(无线电探测和定位)这个词组的缩写。本句的radar是word的同位语。同位语常常表示本位语的另一种说法,指出本位语的具体内容或者列举、突出本位语的一部分内容。
同位语一般置于本位语之后,可以不用标点符号隔开,也可以用逗号、冒号或破折号隔开,例如:The thought came to him that maybe the enemy had fled the city.这里thought就和它的由that引导的同位语从句被谓语部分came to him所分割。
1. counterproductive adj.产生相反效果(结果)的
e.g. It is counterproductive to be too tough: it just makes the staff resentful.
e.g. Although the speaker overlooks certain circumstances in which undueskepticism might be counterproductive, and even harmful, on balance I agree thatwe should not passively accept whatever is passed off as fact; otherwise, human knowledge would never advance.
2. seminal adj.萌芽的,潜在的;开创性的;有重大影响的
e.g. in the seminal state (在萌芽状态)|| seminal thoughts || seminal principle(基本原则)
e.g. a seminal book/poet || This experiment was to have a seminal influence on his own political development.
3. forgo v.放弃 (The choice to forgo his security is always available, although it might carry unpleasant consequence)
4. intuition n.直觉 (I will trust my strong intuition that free will is an essential part of our being as humans.)
5. satisfy v.证明是正当的,公证的;为…寻找正当理由
e.g. Such action can be justified on the grounds of greater efficiency.

6. resort to … 诉诸…

欧文Owen, Robert (Dale) 1801 -- 1877
Social reformer; born in Glasgow, Scotland. He taught briefly in New Lanark, Scotland, where his family owned the cotton mills, and occasionally he ran the factories in his father's absence. Influenced by Robert Dale (his father), whose theory of social reform was based on cooperation, practical education, and humane working conditions, he emigrated with his father to America (1825) to set up the New Harmony Colony in Indiana. Unfit for manual labor, the son taught school there and edited the New Harmony Gazette. The community failed (1827) and he would later criticize its participants as "lazy theorists" and "unprincipled sharpers." (His father returned to England in 1828.) Known for practicality in the application of social ideals, he nonetheless came under the influence of Frances Wright and the "Free Enquirers," a liberal group that advocated an early form of socialism. Moving to New York to join the group's inner circle (1829), he edited the Free Inquirer and helped form the Association for the Protection of Industry and for the Promotion of National Education. Joining his father in England (1832), he coedited The Crisis with him for six months, then returned to New Harmony where he served three terms in the Indiana legislature (1836--38) and was able to secure large-scale public school funding. He also served two terms in the U.S. House of Representatives (1843--47). Appointed charg d'affaires at Naples (1853) and then minister (1855--58), he embraced spiritualism in Italy. On his return to the U.S.A. (1858), he became a leading advocate of the emancipation of slaves; commissioned to purchase arms for the state of Indiana (1861--63), he wrote an influential pamphlet, The Policy of Emancipation (1863). As chairman of a national committee to study freed slaves, he wrote The Wrong Slavery (1864). He was also the author of an autobiography and several novels.

综合作文:
文章说,蝙蝠正在经历一种fungus带来的严重危机,数量大减,为了保护它们,应该做三件事:1、人们少去蝙蝠洞穴,因为他们把fungus带了过去;2、研究学习欧洲的一种resistfungus的bats,然后也许能helpprotecy;3、heatcaves来消灭fungus。
教师反对:1、人们并不是最主要的原因,有一些没有人迹的cave也有fungus;2、study要很长时间才能想出办法,那个时候fungus早就灭绝了;3、heatingcave会让bats醒来,以为夏天到了,然后starvetodeath
1、媒体、历史、政治
媒体和历史,都是用反抗的面貌来充当政治的婢女。
Media and history, appeared to be discontented, are the chambermaid of politics。
2、选择、人民与政治自由
选择意味着迷茫,而没有选择则是丧失自由。故而,自由的前提是一个理性的头脑和一个允许理性公开使用的外在环境。
Choice is puzzlement; without choice, freedom is lost. Thus, a rational mind and a circumstance allowing rationality be exercised publicly, are the prerequisite of freedom。
3、理想与现实
吃饱饭之后的理想探讨是现实派;吃饱饭不谈理想是无耻之徒;不吃饱饭谈理想是理想主义者;不吃饱饭也不谈理想的人,永远吃不饱饭。
Idealism without starvation are realists; lacking idealism without starvation, the barbarians; starvation with idealism, idealists; starvation without idealism, those always in hunger。
4、知识与信仰
信仰的前提是理性。
Rationality is the prerequisite of faith。
5、科技与环保、人类与自然
人类中心主义是狭隘的把人与自然予以割裂。自然可以为友,自然可以为师。
Human-centralism narrowly separates humans from nature. Nature can be a friend, and a teacher。
6、衣着时尚、习惯、身份认同
人的心理最为复杂,不能用其外在表现予以判断;但人的内心却有耐不住寂寞,总想通过外在表现让别人了解自己。
The mind of a man is so complex that it can never be judged by its out appearance. However, the mind never satisfies with solitude and always leaks some clues for others to explore。
