新的一场GRE考试马上就要开始了,小伙伴们准备的怎么样了呢?出国留学网GRE栏目为大家带来“三招完美解决GRE填空难题”,希望对大家有所帮助!
GRE句子填空方法1.判断句子之间的逻辑关系
GRE填空考察的就是整体逻辑语言的能力,考生的任务就是找出句子成分间的逻辑关系,并选择一个合理且必然的选项。句子成分间的逻辑关系对解题起着至关重要的作用,它们常常由一些明显的关键词提示。
最重要的几种逻辑关系
因果关系:because, in that, for, therefore, thus, accordingly, consequently, hence, given, so…that, so…as to, when…then, as long as, in order to……
转折关系:albeit, but, although, despite, however, in spite of, nevertheless, notwithstanding, while, whatever, regardless, even though, even if, yet……
对比关系:in contrast, on the contrary, far from, on the other hand, rather than, instead of, not…but, paradoxically, ironically, surprisingly, unexpectedly……另外还有时间的不同体现相反的关系等等。
GRE句子填空方法2.寻找句子内部的重复线索
新GRE填空的句子常出现陌生的专业术语,晦涩的思想观点等,但对解题并不构成真正的障碍。因为题目本身往往提供了足够的内容的重复线索帮助你找到正确的答案。
e.g.
Melodramas, which presented stark oppositions between innocence and criminality, virtue and corruption, good and evil, were popular precisely because they offered the audience a world _____ of _____.
A. bereft theatricality
B. composed adversity
C. full circumstantiality
D. deprived polarity
E. devoid neutrality
GRE考试的题目主干要我们填Melodramas提供给观众一个怎样的世界,同时又告诉我们它们表现了无辜与罪恶,美德与堕落之间的刻板对立,所以我们不需要知道Melodramas是什么东东就可以判断它们提供给观众的是一个刻板对立的世界,五个选项中只有E选项“全无中立的世界”表达了这个意思。
GRE句子填空方法3.判断语气和感情色彩
有时,通过正常的阅读去理解句子比较难且费时间。但是用感情色彩去判断,处理起来就变得比较方便。
e.g.
Johnson never _____ to ignore the standards of decent conduct mandated by company policy if _____ compliance with instructions from his superiors enabled him to do so, whatever the effects on his subordinates.
A. designed tacit
B. attempted halfhearted
C. intended direct
D. scrupled literal
E. wished feigned
句子的意思比较令人费解,但是从句末whatever the effects on his subordinates(不管对他的下级产生怎样的影响)看,我们知道Johnson做的是一件不好的事情。
从第一个空格看,五个选项只有D的scrupled填入表达这样的意思。总结起来,判断逻辑关系,寻找重复关系,判断语气及感情色彩这三步熟练的结合运用,几乎能解决所有的填空问题。
