篇1:GRE填空解题步骤

GRE填空解题步骤 填空正确打开方式你掌握了吗?

1、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

2、寻找重复关系

填空题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

题目的主干要我们填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。

The new biological psychiatry does not deny the contributing role of psychological factors in mental illnesses, but posits that these factors may act as a catalyst on existing physiological conditions and _____ such illnesses.

A. disguise

B. impede

C. constrain

D. precipitate

E. consummate

这道题粗看起来内容十分专业,空格要求填factors 对such illnesses 有什么样的动作。其实句子中有一个明确的重复线索,factors 起到了一个催化剂的作用,所以空格中填入一个表达催化意思的词语,就一定是正确选项。表示催化的感觉的词只有D项:precipitate

3、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

跟别的GRE填空题目一样,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。

从一开始做题,就应该养成良好的习惯。按照这三步做,比起直接代选项到题目的好处是能够有效的避免干扰选项的误导。

总结起来,GRE填空的三个步骤就是:

1.判断逻辑关系

2.寻找重复关系

3.判断语气及感情色彩

所以只要我们熟练的运用这三步骤,几乎能解决所有的GRE填空问题。

GRE考试填空真题答案及解析

1. The meeting on environmental issues produced ________ discussion but no commitment on a plan of action: the many uncertainties surrounding global climatic change and the huge cost of efforts to limit it made the policymakers ____

A. little … voluble

B. heated … contentious

C. cordial … quarrelsome

D. frustrating … affable

E. interminable … businesslike

2. Art that endures often makes an initially disturbing impact: the profound experience that such art seeks to provoke necessarily engenders a certain ___

A. familiarity

B. ennui

C. upheaval

D. intimacy

E. tranquility

3. The history of film reflects the _____ inherent in the medium itself: film combines still photographs to represent continuous motion and, while seeming to present life itself, can also offer impossible and dreamlike unrealities.

A. trivialities

B. biases

C. constraints

D. paradoxes

E. liabilities

解析:

1、单词比较难!but后面是no commitment,“没有约定”是负评价,前面就应该是正评价,第一空填正评价词BCD,冒号后面是解释。根据主干大法简化为uncertainties made the policymakers空格。不确定性使得决策者怎么样?当然是不确定啦BC。在许多字典上contentious与quarrelsome是同义词。注意:Contentious强调的是有不同意见,重点是“争”,而quarrelsome强调的是不同意见导致的争吵,重点是“吵”。此题没说到吵,所以答案是B。

参考ETS对本题的解释:The word “quarrelsome” is improper here for describing the controversial views harbored by different persons but emphasizes the shadow of anger and aggression gratuitous in this sentence. 参考译文:环境问题会议产生了激烈的争论但是没有行动决议:围绕着全球气候改变和防止它改变需要的巨大花费等问题上的不确定性使得政策决定者们争议不休。

2、此题还是单词太难。根据技巧主干简化为:Art 产生disturbing impact,后面experience产生空格,而experience由艺术引起,可以视为art的同义重复,所以冒号前后完全一致,空格中选出disturbing impact 的同义词BC。注意:disturbing让人烦恼,而ennui指的是无聊,不让人开心但是也不让人烦恼,而重点显然是impact,能够表示一种负评价的行为结果的只有C。

参考译文:忍耐的艺术常常产生原发性地让人烦恼的冲击效果:这种艺术试图引起的深刻经验必然产生一种错乱。

3、冒号是解释重复,后面整句话解释空格。单独的and表明空格要么满足2者之一即可,但是没有单词能表现出combines,但是D却很好地表现了while seeming to present life itself, can also offer impossible and dreamlike unrealities。

参考译文:电影的历史反映了这种媒体本身固有的矛盾:电影将静止的照片们结合在一起去表现连续的动作,并且当表现生活本身时,也常常提供一些不可能的虚幻的不真实东西。

GRE考试填空真题答案及解析

1. Of all the professor’s various mentors, Carabelli was clearly the most ___, since it was he who fundamentally shaped the professor’s now highly regarded research approach.

A. circumspect

B. influential

C. exacting

D. idealistic

E. unethical

2. Some believe that the tradition of holding elections on Tuesday was established to restrict voting to truly serious voters, but in fact ___ was the original idea behind Tuesday voting, since Tuesday in rural communities was when people were most likely to be in town.

A. elitism

B. convenience

C. apathy

D. favoritism

E. partisanship

3. Although the metropolitan area boasts more small businesses than any other region in the state, it ranks very low on the scale of pro-business attitudes: local entrepreneurs have a remarkable ability to ___ an ___ atmosphere here.

A. confront… energetic

B. excuse… invigorating

C. create… enervating

D. overlook… enthusiastic

E. tolerate… inhospitable

解析:

1、在这个教授的所有导师中,Carabelli显然是最有影响力的,因为正是他从根本上打造了该教授现在为人高度尊敬的科研风范。

解析:此题空格完全由since后面决定,将后面意思整个代回空格即可。能够表达这个含义的只有B。而C是一个很强的干扰选项,注意:哪怕导师再苛求(exacting)也无法保证fundamentally shaped,因为你可以苛求我,但是我未必接受你啊。只有说最有影响力的才可以达到fundamentally shaped,因为有影响表示导师影响了这个教授,才可以说打造。

2、有些人认为对于真正严肃的投票人来说在周二进行选举的传统限制了投票,但事实上支持周二投票的最初考虑是方便,这是由于在周二乡村社区里的人最可能进城。

解析:空格由since后面决定,后面的意思是乡村里的人们在周二涌入城里,这除了看出方便投票以外看不出有elitism、apathy、favoritism、partisanship的意味。

3、尽管这个大都市区域以拥有比该国别的区域更多的小商行而自豪,但是它的商业理念水准却很低:当地的企业家令人瞩目地对这里热烈的商业氛围视而不见。

解析:冒号前后同义重复,而前面是转折,作者强调的一定是转折后的东西,所以由it ranks very low on the scale of pro-business attitudes看出是负评价,冒号后面要完成负评价只能在空格处一正一负才行,满足这个条件的是CD。但是D的overlook正好重复了前面说的attitudes比较low,所以非常合适。

篇3:GRE填空规范解题步骤指点

GRE填空规范解题步骤指点 高效答题要有套路

1. 分析句子结构:

分隔与粘连是主要的重复信息的方式

A. 分隔:句子中对主干进行修饰或补充的成分

定语从句:that 同位语:that who “,” 插入语:“,” 分词结构:分词 不定式结构:to 介词短语:介词

B. 粘连:由分号或冒号分开的上下句结构(大粘连)和一个句子内部的直接简单重复(小粘连)

大粘连:直接同义重复:并列、因果关系词

双重否定与肯定句重复:(1)A not 非A (2)A It's wrong/foolish/presumptuous to say 非A

主动句与被动句重复:is the result of is the outgrowth of is the product of A?B B?by A

逆否命题重复:A?B;非B?非 A(无被动句标志词)

比较句重复:to the same degree/extent as…as more/less -er better than

手段目的句重复:by for in terms of

特殊并列句重复:包含两个并列关系从句的句式

时间对比句重复:once formerly initial pristine erstwhile hereto hithertonow future before recent begin start create until no longer previous

比喻句重复:like as

小粘连:and but rather than even as…as so…as to…

2. 判断句子逻辑关系:

找出信号词,判断句子的并列、转折关系和正(+)、反(—)态度关系

A. 并列关系:并列 递进 条件因果 分号、冒号、破折号

并列:and also or just as similarly correspondingly in the same way indeed accordingly

递进:even

因果:derive from lead to due to because cause since for thereforethus hence in that so…that so…as to as a result result in result fromaccordingly consequently give rise to

B. 让步、转折:even though although even…though while whereas but yethowever nevertheless notwithstanding despite in spite of in contrast toon the contrary on the other hand far from rather than whateverotherwise ironically illogically paradoxically curiously surprisinglyunfortunately

although…,remain/continue(两次转折,— + —) 分号

C. 作者的正、反态度:态度语气词;在没有中心词时,特别要注意靠空格的正、反态度来解题

D. 强烈对比:时间强对比 人物强对比对象强对比(句子叙述对象的转移)

E. 照应:人称代词:it 指示代词:such this that those these 定冠词:the

F. 主体词:主体动词:continue remain shift from…to oscillate between…and turn…into reconcile…and… 人物身份名词 特征人物的特征性质或特征动作

3. 定位中心词:

定位与空格对应的词汇或短语;无中心词时一般要根据句子逻辑关系两空格同时做,两空格相隔很近时一般也要同时做。

4. 解题:

以上三步是做题的关键,体现了解题的思路流程,但并不是每题都必须完成这三步才能解题,这三步分别强调了解题的不同方面和角度,一般用两步或三步即可解题。

最后的提醒: 四种错误原因:

A. 逻辑关系弄反;

B. 因为句子复杂或含义晦涩, 找不到中心词;

C. 没有中心词;

D. 选项中的词义理解不到位。

GRE填空词汇的记忆方法

1.八字真言——一次大量,多次反复。

2.第一遍坚持杨鹏的循环方法,一定要把每个步骤做到,做好;如果每天时间不充裕可采用26天,每天2个list的方法。

3.第一遍不要管英义、派生、同根、同义反义等项,着重记忆主词条、中义和助记法。

4.若用蓝宝,则先不要管类反项,其中涉及的各种关系(如“某某关系”、“某某与某某”、“某某及其某某”等)大多出自宋昊的20种类反关系,第一遍时大可忽略,而且初期阶段对此着意太多,可能会影响后期做真题时的效果。

5.可先看一小部分真题(例如20道),意在体会类反题所反映出来GRE对单词的考法,使背词时更为有的放矢。

6.不要在主词条附近留下任何标记,意在将“场景记忆效应”减至最低。

7.时刻保持激情,参考网络练习。

8.[斟酌使用]可先不背com、con、dis、im、in、un开头的词,待其他的词汇背完后再集中记这些,会发现轻松很多。

9.S开头的单词是所有词汇中最难背的部分(词短、难拆分、助记法少),背时可视情况放慢进度,耐心记忆。

10.“节奏”是最重要的,背时节奏正确则势如破竹,不对则很容易长时间盯着同一页而思想不集中,什么都没看进去,所以应该在list1时就摸索最适合自己的节奏(即背每一个词、每一页的速度),摸索到了就要时刻注意按此速度均衡记忆。

11.可用各种记号标示自己对某词的记忆状况,但种类不宜超过三种,且千万不要记在主词条附近(参照上述第6条)。

12.蓝宝优势在于收词全且分类很明晰好用,但对核心词汇部分并没有继续细分重点,建议在背完两三遍后对照老俞的词频表,突出记忆常考、主考词汇。

13.如果听觉记忆比较强,可在空余时段听听老俞的串讲或红宝的MP3(推荐前者)。

14.绝不要厌恶甚至废弃词根词缀记忆法,当你背了很多遍后会感慨着发现,真正牢靠高效的仍是这种最古老最正统的记忆法。

15.不要纠缠在“第一遍到底背那本书更好”这个老问题,在任何一本书上勤奋耕耘,都定能收获巨大,等到词汇背到60%-70%以上后,再考虑用逆序、音序、分类等其他手段巩固记忆。

16.背词闲暇时可自己总结一下所记内容,如“动物”、“药,剂”、“似(某动物)的”、“格言”等,不要一味依赖前人总结的东西。

17.每天睡前小结一下当天背词的心得体会,以后才能越背越顺。

18.情绪不好时、烦躁时听听音乐,特别是“When you believe”、“Everybody hurts”、“Hero”、“In the end”、英雄交响曲这种唤人坚强向上的,或听听老罗语录,呵呵。

19.保持好心态——快乐,自信、坚忍,把背词汇当作一种冒险、游戏、挑战。

20.最后送大家一句话:“你不把单词折磨得死去活来,它就把你折磨得死去活来。”

GRE填空题目的实战技巧

新GRE填空题目分为好几种类型,通常来说新GRE填空题目要求6-7分钟的解题时间,考虑到填空题是第一个出现的,所以还要留出一分钟时间考生需要进入状态,这样平均下来,每个题大概一分钟左右。

通过ETS的出题思路来判断,我们也能分析到填空题目的破解方法。

新GRE填空题通常都是信息量充足型的,也就是题目的信息恰好是可以选出题目空缺的信息(相对来说阅读是信息量过剩型,而类反是信息量缺乏型,数学则是信息量不对称型的。出题人挖掉的空白处正好体现了出题人的思路,留下的句子组成的逻辑线索反映了出题人的思想。因此,掌握了出题人的想所,一定是能推理出正确答案的。如此说来,解决句子填空就是让考生通过题目给出的线索,破解出出题人的思路。

举个例子:

原题:

Because medieval women's public participation in spiritual life was not welcomed by the male establishment, a compensating religious writings, inoffensive to the members of the establishment because of its , became important for many women.

A) involvement with… privacy

B) attention to… popularity

C) familiarity with… scarcity

D) dissatisfaction with… profundity

E) resistance to… domesticity

我们先把这个句子剥离一下.

主干:

a ...religious writings became important for many women.

实际上说的很简单,但是,只看着一句暂时分析不出选出什么。于是作者开始添加其他句子成分,来给出线索。Because提示原因。public participation不被welcome,那么,一个compensating 的participation就应该很重要。作者提供了一个因果关系,线索直接指向第一个空格。后者必然是前者的原因,而且第一个空逗号后面是 participation的同位语也就是同义的,我们就找一个participation的近义词。许多时候,像本题一样,这个句子中给出了充分多的解题线索,我们可以唯一的找到了A选项。

这里我们看出来,这个题目代表了ETS出题的一个常见思维定势,除去主干之外的其他部分,全部是为主干提供限定解释的,所以这些限定解释,就提供了主干中间空格的线索,同时,其他地方的空格,也可以由相关的成分提供的线索解决掉。我们马上能够看出来,所有的空格,出题人都在千方百计的给我们提供线索,有的时候可能还会提供冗余信息给我们。我们所要做的,就是找到这些出题人在这些原来的句子上人为加上的线索,来破解出题人的意图。

GRE填空利用语气词排除干扰

本文中所提到的语气词与汉语中所说的意义不同,我们都知道,GRE句子填空是一个比较特别的题型,需要我们依靠句中信息去推知空白处所要填写的词语,如果空白有两个,则要综合考虑,使二者达到有机的平衡。这里所说的语气词是指题干或选项中表示语气和态度的词语,它反映了褒贬程度,说通俗一些就是这个词究竟是表示正面的还是反面的,判断出这种关系之后,可以缩小选择范围,有助于我们快速破题。

为便于简化,在此将通过语气词来进行选择的情况分为以下两类:

一、原句中带有语气词,通过分析句子结构从选项中进行排除,解答这类题目时关键在于发现破题点。

例句1:It is assumed that scientists will avoid making _____ claims about the results of their experiments because of the likelihood that they will be exposed when other researchers cannot _____ their findings.

A. Hypothetical... evaluate

B. Fraudulent... duplicate

C. Verifiable... contradict

D. Radical... contest

E. Extravagant... dispute

解析:本题原句中的exposed是破题点所在,中文意思即“曝光”,既然是可能被曝光,那么这一定是表示贬义的,是从反面说明的。再根据句子表示的因果关系可以推测出第一个空白处必定也是表示贬义的,综观五个备选答案,只有B和E能与这种语气形成对应,而从语意上比较这两个词,fraudulent 是“欺诈的,欺骗性的”意思,extravagant意思为“奢侈的,浪费的,放纵的”,后者与原句意思不相关,无疑正确答案就只剩下B。

例句2:Those who fear the influence of television deliberately_______ its persuasive power, hoping that they might keep knowledge of its potential to effect social change from being widely disseminated.

(A) promote

(B) underplay

(C) excuse

(D) laud

(E) suspect

解析:本题只有一个空白,那么我们集中精力攻克就可以了,但是不一定就比两个空白的简单,要从句子整体寻找对应。第一个关键步骤就是发现破题点,在此依旧为一个单词deliberately,即我们所说的表示语气的词,既然是故意的,那么该行为所表达的动作一定不是正面的,按照这个意思去理解,选项中的A和D首先被排除,因为这两个词都是从正面去说的,再结合原句的意思不难发现正确答案为B。

二、语气词出现在选项中,要结合句意在选项中比较、排除。

例句1: The scientist found it puzzling that his rival“s theory retained its_______ despite widespread suggestions that it was now _______.

A. perspective…dated

B. currency…moribund

C. appeal …accepted

D. complexity…unfathomable

E. credibility…recognized

解析:本句从整体上判断属于转折关系句型,而且空白出现在两个分句中,需要将二者结合起来考虑,乍一看不能立即排除掉任何一个选项,这时候就应该把选项依次代入原句,根据句子结构这两个空白处要填的词语气相反,按照这个逻辑去对应,只有B符合要求。

例句2: Paleontologists” assumptions about the equable nature of the climate on the primeval island of Pangaea are ________ computer simulations indicating that the island“s temperatures tended to _______ during the course of a year.

A. based on… cool

B. confirmed by… vary

C. challenged by…stabilize

D. bolstered by…soar

E. undermined by…fluctuate

解析:本题是综合性质的,从句子整体来看属于现在分词起解释说明的作用,也不能立即排除掉任何选项,但通过比较选项可以将其分为正面语气和反面语气,从而按照结合句意缩小范围,均衡二者之后,可以得出如果第一个空白处为正面语气,也就是说computer simulations起到了好的作用,那么第二个空应该就是表示稳定之类的词语,反之如果是起到了不好的作用,则要变得not equable。本题正确答案为E。

篇5:GRE填空高分解题思路步骤讲解

第一步:审题理解题意

读题审题是理解题干内容的关键一步,但是考生往往感觉要么必须彻底弄懂句子意思才能做题,要么觉得无法读懂题干而盲目做答。小编建议大家:读题干时,考生应先抓住题目的主干结构,换句话说应先弄清楚句子的主语,谓语和宾语成分,而后找出主干以外的修饰成分,譬如定语短语,定语从句,分词短语,状语从句及插入语等等。阅读句子时可以采用跳跃式的读题方法,即仍掉那些主干以外的部分,但是对于双空格的填空题来说,采用这种方法就未必有效,甚至还会解题思维造成阻碍,因为,双空格的句子往往一个句子中可以分成两个具有一定逻辑关系的分句,且两个分句或起到承前起后,或起到转折,或起到并列的作用,前程百利建议考生对于双空格的考题才取全读策略,根据具体语境寻找前后的逻辑关系。

第二步:搞懂分句基本逻辑关系

当我们顺利完成第一步,弄懂句子的主干结构和分隔成分以后,接下来开始对题干所隐含的逻辑关系进行分析,这是解题的依据所在,也是决定解题正确与否的关键环节。

在实际考试时,读题干和分析逻辑关系的步骤可以同时进行,我们基本在能够推出句子空格处所需填入的词汇的褒贬色彩以及所要表达的意义方向以后,便可以进行选项的排除及定位。另外,在寻找逻辑关系时,前程百利还建议大家在读句子时,应主动去分辨句子当中所存在的重复部分,照应结构以及主体词等等。

第三步:选择适合词汇

通过对句子进行结构分析并进行结构简化以后,接下来需要做的就是根据先前确定好的逻辑关系确定选词,如果句子所包含的逻辑关系为转折关系,那基本上双空格内应填入的词汇的关系为对立关系,我们可以视应填入的一组词为反义词,如果根据意群,我们透过分析句子的主干部分与主干以外的修饰语成分,得出其中的逻辑关系为并列关系,那么我们就可以视应填入的两个词之间的关系为同义关系,而当我们试图根据逻辑关系无法得出正确选项时,最后还剩下一个策略,那就是排除法则,只要确定出一个空格的词汇,另外一个空格的词汇我们只要将其代入其中即可。

第四步:检查选项正确性

当我们完成了填空题,最后一个环节就是检查,通常检查题目的一个优先策略就是看将选项中的词汇代入空格中,看句子从意义上是否通顺,连贯。如果句子不连贯,那么就说明所选的词项是错误的,那么我们就应该进行二次排除,直到句子通顺为止。

篇6:GRE填空高分解题思路步骤讲解

1. 单空题

单空题可以说是GRE填空中最为基本的题型。解题一般不需要特别复杂的技巧和方法,只要考生本身具备足够的词汇量,同时对于近义词同义词有一定的辨析能力,那么做好单空题不会有太大困难。

2. 双空题

除了考察考生的词汇能力外,双空题还需要考验考生对于两个空格之间的搭配组合。正确解答双空题的思路不是确保单一空格的绝对正确,而是确保两个空格都能先对正确且逻辑合理。大家可以从句子的连词和从句等非主要题干部分寻找到解题线索帮助解答。

3. 三空题

在双空题的基础上进一步增加了题目难度。考生需要同时考虑三个空格之间的关系。除此之外,三空题的题目往往较长,有些题目甚至达到了短篇阅读的篇幅长度。还有些题目则干脆就是一句长难句。因此,考生必须具备一定的快速阅读理解能力和解析长难句的本领。练好长难句将成为解决三空题的一个关键要点。

4. 等价题

等价题可以算是比较另类的填空题。需要从6个选项中选择出两个意思相近的答案。考生不仅需要考虑单个选项本身的合理性,还需要寻找到能够表达出相近含义的“队友”。单独分析选项很容易造成大家的思路混乱,最好的做法是看完题目后先不看选项,而是根据自己的理解拟定一个大致的答案。然后再跟题目给出的选项进行比较匹配,这样一来可以最大程度上避免错误选项的干扰。

以上就是GRE填空的标准解题步骤介绍。小编最后再次提醒大家,解答填空题一定要避免只看选项答题的做法,虽然词汇量的确是填空部分的主要考点,但许多题目只靠词汇过关并不能得到正确答案,遵循解题步骤有条不紊地解答,才能帮助大家更有效率地应对难题,确保填空部分的稳定得分。

GRE填空逻辑关系解题技巧思路分析

GRE填空逻辑关系因果类词汇整理

在做GRE填空时遇到凡是包含because, since, for, if, thus, hence, so that, so...that..., so...as to..., therefore, consequently, as a result, accordingly, in that, result in, result from, cause, give rise to, derive from, lead to, be due to 等词汇的GRE填空题目,必是在陈述某种因果关系(causal relationship)。

结合因果关系分析逻辑选项

在原因(cause)和结果(effect)之间,应存在一种内在的必然的逻辑关系。换言之,当原因或前提条件为充分时,其结果或结论应是必然的和充分的,而不应是或然的或似是而非的,反之亦然。了解这一点,假如面对一些模棱两可表态不明确的选项,大家就可以判断其是否正确了。

通过互推逻辑关系印证解题思路

按因果律高度统一的原则,可从已知的原因推知结果,或从已知的结果推出原因,在诸多情况下,原因即为结果,结果即为原因,两者为同义互补的关系。对于一些双空题来说,许多选项可能单独都是成立的,但组合在一起就会显得很奇怪,这其实就是因为这些选项在因果关系上出现了不一致无法互补的表现,如果大家做完选择后总觉得别扭,那么很有可能就是此类原因造成的,不妨及时检查答案,再次确认一下解题思路。

结合分句褒贬态度分析选项对错

从感情色彩上看,正面的原因必引发正面的结果,负面的原因必造成负面的结果,两者之间或同为褒义,或同为贬义。通过这一点,考生就可以根据句子的感情色彩来进行选项的判断和选择,对于多空题中一些意思相近,但所表达感情色彩相反的选项可以选择辨识出正确答案。

部分题目中也有间接因果逻辑

除了能辩认出包含上述词汇的明显的因果关系外,还应能辩认出某些不直接的和隐含的因果关系。在英语中,大多数的定语从句,以by引导的被动语态,以及by表示手段或方式,甚至名词前的形容词,都可以归纳到间接的因果关系这一范畴中。最后,切记在无连接词的情况下两个句子间凡出现冒号或分号这两种标点符号时,这亦为因果关系。

以上就是关于GRE填空应对多空题运用因果关系解题的相关技巧介绍,希望考生能够了解并学习这种方法,运用到自己的解题过程中,在GRE填空部分取得更好的成绩。

GRE填空如何搞懂出题人思路

如何从新GRE考试填空题目看出题人思路,通过ETS的出题思路来判断,GRE题目的难度不会有显著的变化,即使考察的词汇内容有所更新,也仅仅是小更新。所以新GRE句子填空肯定在平均的难度水平上和出题思路上保持一致的,因此分析之前的真题,无论如何都是可以应付当前的考试的。

其次,新GRE句子填空题目,一般是信息量充足型的(相对来说,阅读是信息量过剩型的,而类反是信息量缺乏型的,而数学是信息量不对称型的),题目作者挖掉的空和他留下的词汇实际上就体现了他的思路,他挖掉的空,是体现出他想考察的点,留下的词汇和这些词汇组成的一个逻辑的和语意的线索,体现了他的思维过程,(当然,有的时候线索也可能留在选项中)出题人认为通过他留下的线索,我们是一定能推出空格的答案的.我们就是要把他的这种思维定势揣摩出来.这样说来,句子填空更向是破解密码,我们现在能做的,就是充分了解密码的编码和解码规则,然后等到遇见密码的时候根据这些规则把这些密码破译出来.我们现在要找的,就是这个编码解码规则。

再者,新GRE填空题通常都是信息量充足型的,也就是题目的信息恰好是可以选出题目空缺的信息(相对来说阅读是信息量过剩型,而类反是信息量缺乏型,数学则是信息量不对称型的。出题人挖掉的空白处正好体现了出题人的思路,留下的句子组成的逻辑线索反映了出题人的思想。因此,掌握了出题人的想所,一定是能推理出正确答案的。如此说来,解决句子填空就是让考生通过题目给出的线索,破解出出题人的思路。

举个例子:

Because medieval women’s public participation in spiritual life was not welcomed by the male establishment, a compensating religious writings, inoffensive to the members of the establishment because of its , became important for many women.

A) involvement with… privacy

B) attention to… popularity

C) familiarity with… scarcity

D) dissatisfaction with… profundity

E) resistance to… domesticity

我们先把这个句子剥离一下主干:

a …… religious writings became important for many women.

实际上说的很简单,但是,只看着一句暂时分析不出选出什么。于是作者开始添加其他句子成分,来给出线索。Because提示原因,public participation不被welcome,那么,一个compensating 的participation就应该很重要。作者提供了一个因果关系,线索直接指向第一个空格。后者必然是前者的原因,而且第一个空逗号后面是participation的同位语也就是同义的,我们就找一个participation的近义词。许多时候,像本题一样,这个句子中给出了充分多的解题线索,我们可以唯一的找到了A选项。

这里我们看出来,这个题目代表了ETS出题的一个常见思维定势,除去主干之外的其他部分,全部是为主干提供限定解释的,所以这些限定解释,就提供了主干中间空格的线索,同时,其他地方的空格,也可以由相关的成分提供的线索解决掉.我们马上能够看出来,所有的空格,出题人都在千方百计的给我们提供线索,有的时候可能还会提供冗余信息给我们。我们所要做的,就是找到这些出题人在这些原来的句子上人为加上的线索,来破解出题人的意图。

GRE填空高效复习的注意事项

1.首先简化句子:

根据构造的成分,句子可以分成主干和修饰成分。主干是一个完整的主谓结构,而修饰成分可能是从句,定语或者状语。为了准确快速地理解句子的意义,你必须分析句子的结构。但有时你并不需要掌握句子的确切意义,因为有些句子逻辑关系极为明显,你只需通过这些揭示逻辑关系的过渡词或者语气词和理解其中的关键词就可以解题。

所以,很多时候你并不需要真正的掌握GRE填空每句话的句意,你只需将不可能包含过渡词和关键词的修饰成分略掉,这样可以帮助你快速地找到正确答案。

2.然后,关注过渡词与关键词:

特别留意那些决定句子结构的过渡词,这些过渡词经常是连词,有时也会是语气态度词。通过它,你可以确定句子的组织形式(并列,或者转折),选择与之相匹配的词。

关键词是指那些决定句子内涵,正负态度和贬褒意义的词汇。一旦你识别了这些关键词,再由句子的构造的逻辑关系,空格的内容就显而易见。这里,最重要的是你对过渡词和关键词的敏感性。

篇7:GRE填空如何正确解题

GRE填空词汇并非唯一考点 快速解题切忌只看答案邪道做法

只看选项做题危害性分析

小编之所以说做GRE选择题不能直接看选项,主要是因为以下两点原因:

1. ETS官方设置针对性陷阱

为了避免考生在解答GRE句子填空题时大量采用直接看选项的方法,GRE考试官方机构ETS从很早就开始对填空题进行了一些改动。最常见的就是在选项中设置大量近义或同义词,以此强迫考生先看题目。更有甚者,在填空等价题的选项中设置两对同义词,有时候还会放入1到2个相对冷僻陌生的高难度生词。如此一来,直接看选项的解题方法就容易反而导致错误率提升,实用效果大打折扣。

2. 填空并非只考词汇

另外,从题目本身来说,GRE填空题的考点也并不只是词汇。从数个选项中选择唯一答案,本身就需要一定的逻辑推理分析能力,特别是在双空、三空和等价题中,考生如果本身词汇量并没有达标,往往会发现5、6个选项中有1-2个不认识的生僻词汇,这种时候不使用一些逻辑分析推理的解题技巧往往很难做对题目。另外,考生有时候也需要根据题目本身来推测空格可能需要的词汇,这又涉及到了阅读理解和英文文体方面的一些要求。总之,GRE填空并非只只考词汇一项,因此只凭借选项来解题本身就有着非常大的局限性。

只看选项做题实例讲解

光看上面的分析有些同学可能还不太信服,那么下面小编就通过一道在GRE考试中实际出现过且考生平均正确率较低的真题为大家具体分析,一起来看:

真题实例:

Brutus is often held up as the embodiment of _____–-yet, while it is true that he deceived his friend, Julius Caesar, one must not forget that Caesar had become both a danger to himself and the Republic.

A. wisdom

B. prudence

C. treachery

D. selflessness

E. perfidy

F. cowardice

思路分析:

如果大家在面对上面这道题目时跳过题目直接看选项,很容易就会发现A和B似乎在含义上相当接近。放到句子里似乎也读的通。但如果仔细看过题目,大家就会发现,本题的解题线索是“deceived his friend”。而根据整句的意思,此处应该填入的是跟deceive相关的词汇。这样一来,AB尽管是一对近义词,但在本题中就不是适合的选项。而在所有选项中,C的意思相当接近,而D和F则偏差较大。至于剩下的E,认识的同学自然知道它是C的近义词,而不认识的同学也可以通过排除法做出选择。实际上,E本身也是GRE词汇,只不过比较冷僻,可能有不少同学没有背过。

GRE填空题标准做法建议

实际上,就GRE等价题来说,最标准而正确的解题方法,还是按照正常的做题顺序,从头到尾看完题目后再行作答。而为了避免被数量众多的选项误导和困扰,建议大家在阅读完题目后,先不要直接看选项,而是根据自己对题目的理解先大致给出心中的答案,然后再和选项进行匹配,找到合适的答案。

总而言之,虽然GRE考试时间紧张,考生努力研究并使用一些提速技巧无可厚非,但这都需要建立在能够正确理解和解答题目的基础之上。上文提到的直接看选项的做法看似便利,但其实弊大于利,希望大家能够学会正确的解题思路方法,不要图一时之便而影响到最后的考试成果。
