新gre阅读理解多项选择题型解析 多项选择题II(新题型)(在3个选择项中选择任意符合题意的答案,1项到3项均可,错选漏选不给分) Select-in-Passage:The question asks the examinee to click on the sentence in the passage that meets a certain description. To answer the question, the examinee chooses one of the sentences and clicks on it; clicking anywhere on a sentence will highlight it. 题型:多项选择题II Sample Multiple-choice Questions — Select One or More Answer Choices Consider each of the three choices separately and select all that apply. 2. The passage suggests that extensive use of sequestration would, over time, have which of the following consequences? A. The burning of fossil fuels would eventually cease to produce atmospheric accumulations of carbon dioxide. B. The proportion of the delivered price of electricity due to generation would rise and then decline. C. Power plants would consume progressively lower quantities of fossil fuels. Answer: B 解析:首先,从文章中可以看出,没有什么方法可以“停止”大气中二氧化碳的累积,所以A选项中所提到的“The burning of fossil fuels would eventually cease to produce atmospheric accumulations of carbon dioxide.”显然是错误的。另外,整个文章中也并没有提供一种方法可以使得电厂可以 “减少化石燃料的使用量”,所以C选项显然不符合题意。由于文章中的最后二句话中指出:“But because sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, delivered prices will rise less, by no more than 50 percent. Research into better technologies for capturing carbon dioxide will undoubtedly lead to lowered costs.”所以,随着化石燃料使用量的增加,未来可以预期的发电成本将会先增加后减少。应该选择选项B(The proportion of the delivered price of electricity due to generation would rise and then decline.)由此可以看出,尽管新GRE考试中出现了新的多项选择题型,但是并没有在实质上改变原有的命题核心思想。即考察考生的对文章事实的理解和推断进一步信息的能力。所以,原有的解题方法的运用不仅是可能的,也是必要的应对新GRE考试的工具。 由于新gre考试阅读以不想老g那样有较多的论据,所以一定要把每个句子梳理清楚,这对考生推断能力的提高了要求。而传统的gre考试阅读理解当中很少涉及句子之间的逻辑关系,即考生要加强阅读训练以便更好的适应新gre考试阅读。
新gre阅读理解多项选择题型解析的延伸阅读——GRE阅读技巧详解 GRE阅读技巧:宏观中的“必读”与“不读” 所谓宏观,即使明确文章结构。再清楚一点说,即使我们要知道主题句的所在位置以及每段大意。 让我们今天来了解一下什么是主题句,ETS的阅读文章中主题句通常会以什么形式出现。和中国考生自己写作文不一样的是,美国人的阅读文章中从来都不出现“I think that, in my opinion,
as far as I am considered”此类语言做主题句。通常来说美国人的主题句有两种形式: 主题句两种形式: 1. 判断句(含情态动词,系动词,正负褒贬词的句子); 2. 概括文章将来结构。 比如一个句子:Your minds changed my attitude. 这句话中并没有情态动词和系动词,因此这句话自然不是判断句,也就不是主题句。但只要在这句话中加入一个正负褒贬词,即一个词表明作者的态度或观点的词即是判断句了。比如,Your minds successfully changed my
attitude即是判断句了。另外,如果一个句子不是判断句,只要它能够概括文章将来结构,及文章后面会从哪几个方面来说明,也是主题句。比如,People are living longer now. 这句话一定不是主题句,而如果这句话是,People are living longer now since
the improvement of food condition and the development of medical technology.这句话即是主题句了。因为它概括了文章后面会从哪几个方向来进行说明。 掌握好了主题句判断方法,很多文章学生便可以很快把握文章的结构框架,帮助后面文章的理解。比如一篇文章的开头是,Mycorrhizal fungi infect more
plants than do any other fungi and are necessary for many plants to thrive, but they have escaped widespread
investigation until recently for two reasons. First, the symbiotic association is so
well-balanced that the roots of host plants show no damage even when densely
infected. Second, the fungi cannot as yet be
cultivated in the absence of a living root. 第一句是明显的判断句,即为主题句。而主题句也同时概括了文章的将来结构,即会从“M真菌影响力很强”和“M真菌过去由于两个原因没有得到广泛研究”。下面马上看到了first和second,我们即知道这两个很难读懂的句子无非是两个原因使得M真菌没有得到广泛研究而已,具体是哪两个原因,我们几乎可以忽略不读。 |
