提高GRE填空正确率的不二途径,一是有良好的单词基础,而容易被忽略的第二个条件,则是对题目进行逻辑分析。一道填空题,如果选对了,却不能有条理地把分析思路表达出来,或明确指出做题的线索,则还没有掌握做填空题的真谛。
接下来我会在每次的真题考试中,挑选出有挑战性的难题,或容易做错的题目,为大家附上深度解析,希望能够帮助备考的同学们在考场上思路更加清晰,稳拿填空满分。
1. 57-5

- 解析:
Parker’s model of human affairs reflects (i)_____ outlook, in stark contrast to the generally (ii)_____ premises that her colleagues in the economics department adopt in their work. Accordingly, her conclusions (iii)_____ theirs.
-做题关键信息: i空和ii空联动,根据in stark contrast to对比关键词确定两空互为取反。iii空根据accordingly因果关系词取同推知,与前文句意 - 即Parker的研究和她同事的研究大相径庭 - 等价。
-答案:ADI

pessimistic adj. 悲观的
theoretical adj. 理论的,假设的

Parker的人际关系的模型体现出乐观的前景,这与她经济学院其他同事论文中所采用的悲观前提大相径庭。所以,Parker得出的结论和他们的也完全相悖。

4. 89-2

It must have been a (i)_____ process: cacao trees do not easily sprout from seed, need years to mature, and grow only in humid lowland forest.

Moreover, in a tropical climate, cacao pods spoil quickly, rendering their transport from lowland Amazonia tropical Mesoamerica in a single journey by foot or canoe (ii)_____.
-做题关键信息:三句话为大等价的关系,解释T cacao植物如何被引入至M地是个谜。冒号后内容解释i空的引入过程的特点。rendering引导的伴随状语具有因果关系提示作用,ii空则通过rendering前的原因推出。
-答案:BD

canoe n. 独木舟
clandestine adj. 秘密的,暗中的

-翻译:
学者认为源自亚马孙低地地区的Theobroma cacao是如何被引入到热带中美洲的过程,仍然是一个谜。其引进的过程一定很漫长:可可豆树的种子很难发芽,树木需要很多年才能长成,且只在潮湿的低地森林才能生长。此外,在热带气候中,可可豆的豆荚会很快腐败,这使得步行或乘船带着豆荚从亚马孙到中美洲是不可能的。
