After reading a passage, choose the best answer to each question. Answer all questions following a passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage.Late-eighteenth-century English cultural authorities seemingly concurred that women readers should favor history, seen as edifying, than fiction, which was regarded as frivolous and reductive. Readers of Marry Ann Hanway’s novel Andrew Stewart, or the Northern Wanderer, learning that its heroine delights in David Hume’s and Edward Gibbon’s histories, could conclude that she was more virtuous and intelligent than her sister, who disdains such reading. Likewise, while the na?ve, novel-addicted protagonist of Jane Austen’s Northanger Abbey, Catherine Morland, finds history a chore, the sophisticated, sensible character Eleanor Tilney enjoys it more than she does the Gothic fiction Catherine prefers. Yet in both cases, the praise of history is more double-edged than it might actually appear. Many readers have detected a protofeminist critique of history in Catherine’s protest that she dislikes reading books filled with men “and hardly any women at all.”Hanway, meanwhile, brings a controversial political edge to her heroine’s reading, listing the era’s two most famous religious skeptics among her preferred authors. While Hume’s history was generally seen as being less objectionable as his philosophy, there were widespread doubts about his moral soundness even as a historian by the time that Hanway was writing, and Gibbon’s perceived tendency to celebrate classical paganism sparked controversy from the first appearance of his history of Rome.1．The author’s primary purpose is thatA．the evidence used in support of a particular argument is questionableB．a distinction between two genres of writing has been overlookedC．a particular issue is more complex than it might appearD．two apparently different works share common featuresE．two eighteenth-century authors held significantly different attitudes toward a particular正确答案：A解析：A选项中的a particular argument指的是文化权威们认为“女人应该多读历史”的观点，evidence指的是第二、三句。

After reading a passage, choose the best answer to each question. Answer all questions following a passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage.Although the passenger pigeons, now extinct, were abundant in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century America, archaeological studies at twelfth-century Cahokian sites in the present day United States examined household food trash and found that traces of passenger pigeon were quite rare. Given that the sites were close to a huge passenger pigeon roost documented by John James Audubon in the nineteenth century and that Cahokians consumed almost every other animal protein source available, Q2the archaeologists conducting the studies concluded the passenger pigeon population had once been very limited before increasing dramatically in post-Columbian America. Other archaeologists have criticized those conclusions on the grounds that passenger pigeon bones would not be likely to be preserved. But all the archaeological projects found plenty of bird bones- and even Q1tiny bones from fish.1．The author of the passage mentions “tiny bones from fish”primarily in order toA．explain why traces of passenger pigeon are rare at Cahokian sitesB．support a claim about the wide variety of animal proteins in the Cahokian diet C．provide evidence that confirms a theory about the extinction of the passenger pigeonD．cast doubt on the conclusion reached by the archaeologists who conducted the studies discussed in the passageE．counter an objection to an interpretation of the data obtained from Cahokian sites正确答案：E解析：E选项中的an interpretation指的是认为十二世纪的美国没鸽子的这个观点，objection指的是第三句，本题定位到第四句，这句话针对上句话取反，因此counter这个词使用无误。

gre考试真题及答案详解解析

gre考试真题及答案详解解析GRE考试真题及答案详解解析作为世界上最受欢迎的留学考试之一，GRE考试是许多学生梦寐以求的目标。

而要在GRE考试中取得好成绩，了解真题及其答案的详细解析是非常关键的。

本文将为你带来一些GRE考试真题及答案的详解解析，希望对你的备考有所帮助。

一、Verbal Reasoning 篇章阅读题目解析一般来说，GRE考试的Verbal Reasoning部分包含篇章阅读题目。

这些题目通常会给出一篇长度约为200~350字的文章，并附带几个问题。

以一道真题为例：Passage:The human brain, despite its many complexities, can be understood as a network of interconnected neurons. This network allows information to be transmitted throughout the brain via electrical and chemical signals. However, the brain is not a static network; it is constantly changing and adapting to new experiences. This is known as brain plasticity.Question 1: According to the passage, what is brain plasticity?A) The network of interconnected neurons in the brain.B) The transmission of information via electrical and chemical signals.C) The constant change and adaptation of the brain to new experiences.D) The complexity of the human brain.答案解析：根据文章的最后一句话"This is known as brain plasticity."可以得出答案选择C，即大脑对新经验的不断变化和适应。

关于GRE笔试考试的verbal详解及解题技巧

关于GRE笔试考试的verbal详解及解题技巧关于GRE笔试考试的verbal详解及解题技巧GRE的笔考verbal分为四个部分，共38题,时间为30分钟。

其中1至7题为填空，8至16题为类比，17至27题为阅读（长文7道题，短文4道题），28至38题为反义。

试时间安排：填空5--7分钟；类比2--3分钟；阅读12--18分钟(长文8-12分钟,短文4-6分钟,阅读最好在15分钟内完成)；反义1--2分钟；共计20--30分钟。

GRE的verbal到底考什么？肯定的词汇量+肯定的阅读力量。

肯定的词汇量应对类反，便利阅读和填空，而肯定的阅读力量则是应对填空和阅读的根本。

单词的背法：重复再重复，娴熟是基础，勤查MW，找对应关系，直接关系到类反的正确率。

笔考verbal分为四个部分，共38题,时间为30分钟。

其中1至7题为填空，8至16题为类比，17至27题为阅读（长文7道题，短文4道题），28至38题为反义。

1．句子填空题(Sentence Completion)通常消失在词汇部分(Verbal Section)的最前面，一共七题。

句子填空考的是对英文句子整体性的了解。

考生不但要懂得串联上下文和辨识文法结构，还要具备丰富的词汇量，填空的精髓：查找重复。

首先扫读全句，如能理解句义，则直接查找选项。

不能清晰理解句义，则运用技巧，填空其实就是考词语的对应关系，找到句子当中的上下句关系打算选同义词或反义词。

2．类比的解题技巧有(1)先推断题目中两个大写字属于何种题型，例如功用型、因果型、反义型、同义型、程度强弱型、部分与整体型、大小型、人与所做事型、人与工具型等，然后用题再去套解答案。

(2)认真阅读全部选项，千万不要在还没有读完全部选项时就确定答案，由于有可能下一个答案更好，正确答案永久是最优解，而不仅仅是合适。

(3)要擅长抓住题意要求，明确类推的东西及范围。

既不能进行过于简洁的类推，也不能太钻牛角尖，去进行简单的类推。

新版gre题型

新版gre题型
新版GRE的题型包括：
1. 阅读理解（Reading Comprehension）：阅读理解是GRE考试中最重要的几种题型之一，也是GRE考试中最耗时的题型之一。

每篇阅读材料的长度在400到600字左右，每篇文章有5-8道题，每道题有4个选项，其中一个为正确答案，其余三个为错误答案。

考生需要根据文章的内容和语言线索，准确快速地理解文章，分析文章的内容，最终找出正确答案。

2. 填空题（Text Completion）：这类题目要求考生根据给出的句子和选项填写正确的词语，使句子意思完整、语法正确。

3. 数学（Quantitative Reasoning）：数学部分包括选择题和填空题，考察难度不超过高中水平。

4. 分析写作（Analytical Writing）：分析写作分为两部分，一为观点题（Issue），内容通常是对于社会、科学、历史、哲学等方面的观点进行评论；二为回应题（Argument），内容通常是对给定情景中推理的驳斥。

5. 不计分部分：不计分部分可能是语文或者数学，视情况而定。

总体来说，新版GRE更加强调考生的思维能力和分析能力，而不仅仅是记忆和应试技巧。

gre verbal题型和数量

一、GRE Verbal题型概述GRE是留学生入学考试，其Verbal部分重要性不言而喻。

Verbal部分主要考察考生对英语语法、词汇、修辞和阅读的能力。

题型包括填空题、阅读理解和文本推理题。

填空题要求考生根据上下文选出正确的词汇填入空白处，涉及词汇量和句子结构的理解；阅读理解部分考察考生对文章内容和结构的理解能力，要求考生从文章中寻找相关信息回答问题；文本推理题则考察考生对文章逻辑结构和细节的理解能力。

二、GRE Verbal题量变化趋势随着GRE考试的改革，Verbal部分的题量也有所调整。

在过去，Verbal部分共有30到40道题目，其中填空题约为10到12道，阅读理解约为4到5篇，每篇约3到4题，文本推理题约为6到8题。

而在最新的考试中，Verbal部分的题目数量有所减少，大约在20道左右。

填空题、阅读理解和文本推理题的比例也有所调整，具体题型数量取决于具体考试。

三、影响Verbal题型数量变化的因素Verbal题型数量变化的原因是多方面的。

考试机构会根据考生的反馈和实际测试情况对题型和题量进行调整，以提高测试的准确性和公平性。

随着考生的英语水平普遍提高，考试难度和题量也会适当调整。

另外，Verbal部分的题量变化也受到考试形式和内容的影响，比如新题型的加入和旧题型的淘汰等。

四、应对Verbal题量变化的备考策略考生需要根据Verbal题型数量的变化制定相应的备考策略。

要了解最新的题型和题量分布，根据实际情况进行针对性的复习。

要多做真题和模拟题，熟悉各种题型和考试节奏，提高答题速度和准确率。

要注重词汇和阅读的训练，提高自己的语言能力和阅读理解能力。

要保持良好的心态，充分准备，信心十足迎接考试挑战。

五、总结Verbal部分对于GRE考试的重要性不言而喻，考生需要认真对待Verbal题型数量变化带来的影响，制定合理的备考策略，做好充分的准备，取得理想的成绩。

由于考试改革等因素，GRE Verbal部分题型数量的变化一直备受考生关注。

GREVerbal阅读题型

GREVerbal阅读题型让很多考生头疼的GRE Verbal部分到底都考些什么?下面新东方小编就和同学们介绍一下GRE Verbal中的阅读理解部分。

GRE Verbal题型介绍-阅读理解GRE Reading Comprehension阅读理解部分的题型主要包括三种：(1)选择题(Multiple-choice，选择五个选项中唯一正确的答案)(2)不定项选择题(Multiple-choice，选择三个选项中所有正确的答案)(3)句子点选题(Select-in-Passage，在文章中选择符合题目要求的句子)阅读部分考察的能力如下▲understanding the meaning of individual words and sentences▲understanding the meaning of paragraphs and larger bodies of text▲distinguishing between minor and major points▲summarizing a passage▲drawing conclusions from the information provided▲reasoning from incomplete data to infer missing information▲understanding the structure of a text in terms of how the parts relate to one another▲identifying the aut hor's assumptions and perspective▲analyzing a text and reaching conclusions about it▲identifying strengths and weaknesses of a position▲developing and considering alternative explanations仔细分析一下不难发现，第一、第二条是最基本的语言要求，要求能够读懂文字材料;而后面的九条则对考生提出了更高的要求，不论是理解文章的机构还是辨识作者的假设与视角，都要求考生在读懂文字材料的基础上进行推理、分析，这又一次证明了GRE考试并不是一个与语言能力测试。

GRE考试语文VERBAL算分方式gre算分verbal

GRE考试语文VERBAL算分方式gre算分verbal新gre阅读考试算分简介新GRE阅读考试分数不像其他考试的计算方法，利用的是答对题得分不扣分的方式。

新GRE算分方法有助于避免现行考试中多做对一道题导致分数差十分这样局面产生，让分数计算更加精准更加合理。

新GRE阅读考试的算分方式新GRE的计分方式主要的变化在于文字推理(VerbalReasoning，以下简称“语文”)和数量推理(QuantitativeReasoning，以下简称“数学”)部分，分区区间为130分-170分，最小分数段为1分，评分尺度为41个分数级。

作为语文中包含的一个主要部分的阅读考试，同样遵循这一记分规则。

新老GRE算分变化的含义老GRE计分方式最小分数段为10分，分数值间跳跃幅度过大，调查发现，这会夸大两个考生水平的真实差距。

比如，面对一个640分的考生和一个650分的考生，招生人员会感觉两者水平有着明显的差异，但事实上两人的分数只相差了一个分数级。

新GRE计分方式最小分数段为1分，可以有效的避免这种心理上的错觉，更加客观的反映考生的真实水平。

以上就是关于新GRE阅读考试记分规则的介绍，希望能够帮助各位考生清晰地明白新GRE阅读考试评分标准，在平时复习和模考时精确估算出自己的成绩，更有针对性的进行考试准备和规划。

GRE阅读：利用文章结构来解题1.结论-解释型(也叫论点-解释型)2.新老观点对比型3.现象解释型(包含问题-解决方案型)首先是“结论-解释型”文章。

这类文章在开始有一个判断句，一般是文章的结论，也是文章的主题。

这个判断句的谓语部分通常包含系动词(is,remain,prove,turnout,appear等)或情态动词(can,may,should,must等)，而且含有表示态度的词汇(如形容词等)。

例如，BecauseofitsaccuracyinoutliningtheEarth'ssubsurface,theseismic-reflectionmethodremainsthemostimportanttoolinthesearchforpetroleumreserves.Infieldpract ice,asubsurfaceismappedbyarrangingaseriesofwave-trainsources,suchassmalldynamiteexplosions,inagridpattern…后文应解释“地震反射法”的具体过程。

To take sidesat a later point would be to suggest that the earlier presumptive impartiality wasa sham.Question 5 of 10The passage above emphasizes which of the following points about mediators?[Fill this bracket with ONE letter, such as “B”.]A.They should try to form no opinions of their own about any issue that isrelated tothe dispute.B.They should not agree to serve unless they are committed to maintaininga stanceof impartiality.C.They should not agree to serve unless they are equally acceptable to allparties to adispute.D.They should feel free to take sides in the dispute right from the start,provided thatthey make their biases publicly known.E.They should reserve the right to abandon their impartiality so as not to beopen tothe charge of having been deceitful.Questions 6 and 7 are based on the following reading passage.While most scholarship on women’s employment in the United States recognizes thatthe Second World War (1939–1945) dramatically changed the role of women in theworkforce, these studies also acknowledge that few women remained in manufacturingjobs once men returned from the war. But in agriculture, unlike other industries wherewomen were viewed as temporary workers, women’s employment did not end with thewar. Instead, the expansion of agriculture and a steady decrease in the number of malefarmworkers combined to cause the industry to hire more women in the postwar years.Consequently, the 1950s saw a growing number of women engaged in farm labor, eventhough rhetoric in the popular media called for the return of women to domestic life.Question 6 of 10It can be inferred from the passage that the manufacturing and agriculturalsectors in the United States following the Second World War differed in which ofthe following respects?[Fill this bracket with ONE letter, such as “B”.]A.The rate of expansion in each sectorB.The percentage of employees in each sector who were menC.The trend in the wages of men employed in each sectorD.The attitude of the popular media toward the employment of women ineachsectorE.The extent to which women in each sector were satisfied with their jobs Question 7 of 10Which of the following statements about women’s employment in the UnitedStates during and after the Second World War is most clearly supported by thepassage?[Fill this bracket with ONE letter, such as “B”.]A.Most women who joined the workforce during the Second World Warwanted toreturn to domestic life when the war ended.B.The great majority of women who joined the workforce during the SecondWorldWar were employed in manufacturing jobs.C.The end of the Second World War was followed by a large-scale transferofwomen workers from manufacturing to agriculture.D.The increase in women’s employment that accompanied the Second WorldWarwas longer lasting in agriculture than it was in manufacturing.E.The popular media were more forceful in calling for women to join theworkforceduring the Second World War than in calling for women toreturn to domestic life after the war.Questions 8 to 10 are based on the following reading passage.Reviving the practice of using elements of popular music in classical composition, an approach that had been in hibernation in the United States during the 1960s, composer Philip Glass (born 1937) embraced the ethos of popular music without imitating it. Glass based two symphonies on music by rock musicians David Bowie and Brian Eno, but the symphonies’ sound is distinctively his. Popular elements do not appear out ofplace in Glass’s classical music, which from its early days has shared certain harmonies and rhythms with rock music. Y et this use of popular elements has not made Glass a composer of popular music. His music is not a version of popular music packaged to attract classical listeners; it is high art for listeners steeped in rock rather than the classics.Questions 8of10The passage addresses which of the following i ssues related to Glass’s use of popular elements in his classical compositions?[Fill this bracket with ONE letter, such as “B”.]A.How it is regarded by listeners who prefer rock to the classicsB.How it has affected the commercial success of Glass’s musicC.Whether it has contributed to a revival of interest among other composersin usingpopular elements in their compositionsD.Whether it has had a detrimental effect on Glass’s reputati on as acomposer ofclassical musicE.Whether it has caused certain of Glass’s works to be derivative in quality Questions 9of10The passage suggests that Glass’s work displays which of the following qualities? [Fill this bracket with any letter, which you consider applied, such as “BC”.]A. A return to the use of popular music in classical compositionsB.An attempt to elevate rock music to an artistic status more closelyapproximatingthat of classical musicC.

They are non-interactive and are for viewing only. The sample questions are available in alternate format for test takers with disabilities.For the following questions, select the two answer choices that, when used to complete the sentence, fit the meaning of the sentence as a whole and produce completed sentences that are alike in meaning.1.It is truly paradoxical that the Amazon, the lushest of all rainforests, isrooted in the most of all soils.A.acidicB.coarseC.starkD.impoverishedE.infertileF.austere2.Cynics believe that people who compliments do so in order tobe praised twice.A.conjure upB.covetC.deflectD.graspE.shrug offF.understand3.

Johnson as a great early jazz pianist, originator of the 1920's Harlem "stride" style, and an important blues and jazz composer. In addition, however, Johnson was an innovator in classical music, composing symphonic music that incorporated American, and especiallyAfrican-American, traditions.Such a blend of musical elements was not entirely new: by 1924 both Milhaud and Gershwin had composed classical works that incorporated elements ofjazz. Johnson, a serious musician more experienced than most classical composers with jazz, blues, spirituals, and popular music, was particularly suited to expand Milhaud's and Gershwin's experiments. In 1927 he completed his first large-scale work, the blues- and jazz-inspired Yamekraw, which included borrowings from spirituals and Johnson's own popular songs. Yamekraw, premiered successfully in Carnegie Hall, was a major achievement for Johnson, becoming his most frequently performed extended work. It demonstrated vividly the possibility of assimilating contemporary popular music into the symphonic tradition.6.The passage states that Johnson composed all of the following EXCEPTA.jazz worksB.popular songsC.symphonic musicD.spiritualsE.blues pieces7.Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.The author suggests which of the following about most classical composers of the early 1920's?A.They were strongly influenced by the musical experiments ofMilhaud and Gershwin.B.They had little working familiarity with such forms of Americanmusic as jazz, blues, and popular songsC.They made few attempts to introduce innovations into the classicalsymphonic tradition8.The author suggests that most critics haveA.underrated the popularity of YamekrawB.undervalued Johnson's musical abilitiesC.had little interest in Johnson's influence on jazzD.had little regard for classical works that incorporate popular musicE.neglected Johnson's contribution to classical symphonic music Revised GRE General TestVerbal Reasoning Sample Questions (9-10)Questions 9 and 10 are based on the following reading passage.Scholarship on political newspapers and their editors is dominated by the view that as the United States grew, the increasing influence of the press led, ultimately, to the neutral reporting from which we benefit today. Pasley considers this view oversimplified, because neutrality was not a goal of early national newspaper editing, even when editors disingenuously stated that they aimed to tell all sides of a story.

Once we recognize this dual vision, we can accept the play's ironic nuances as deliberate social commentaries by Hansberry rather than as the "unintentional" irony that Bigsby attributes to the work. Indeed, a curiously persistent refusal to credit Hansberry with a capacity for intentional irony has led some critics to interpret the play's thematic conflicts as mere confusion, contradiction, or eclecticism. Isaacs, for example, cannot easily reconcile Hansberry's intense concern for her race with her ideal of human reconciliation. But the play's complex view of Black self-esteem and human solidarity as compatible is no more "contradictory" than Du Bois's famous, well-considered ideal of ethnic self-awareness coexisting with human unity, or Fanon's emphasis on an ideal internationalism that also accommodates national identities and roles.16.The author's primary purpose in the passage is toA.explain some critics' refusal to consider Raisin in the Sun adeliberately ironic playB.suggest that ironic nuances ally Raisin in the Sun with Du Bois's andFanon's writingsC.analyze the fundamental dramatic conflicts in Raisin in the SunD.emphasize the inclusion of contradictory elements in Raisin in theSunE.affirm the thematic coherence underlying Raisin in the Sun17.The author of the passage would probably consider which of the followingjudgments to be most similar to the reasoning of the critics described in the highlighted sentence?A.The world is certainly flat; therefore, the person proposing to sailaround it is unquestionably foolhardy.B.Radioactivity cannot be directly perceived; therefore, a scientistcould not possibly control it in a laboratory.C.The painter of this picture could not intend it to be funny; therefore,its humor must result from a lack of skill.D.Traditional social mores are beneficial to culture; therefore, anyonewho deviates from them acts destructively.E.Filmmakers who produce documentaries deal exclusively with facts;therefore, a filmmaker who reinterprets particular events ismisleading us.18.Click on the sentence in the passage in which the author provides examplesthat reinforce an argument against a critical response cited earlier in thepassage.Rain-soaked soil contains less oxygen than does drier soil. The roots of melon plants perform less efficiently under the low-oxygen conditions present inrain-soaked soil. When the efficiency of melon roots is impaired, the roots do not supply sufficient amounts of the proper nutrients for the plants to perform photosynthesis at their usual levels. It follows that melon plants have alower-than-usual rate of photosynthesis when their roots are in rain-soaked soil. When the photosynthesis of the plants slows, sugar stored in the fruits is drawn off to supply the plants with energy. Therefore, ripe melons harvested after a prolonged period of heavy rain should be less sweet than other ripe melons.19.In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of thefollowing roles?A.The first states the conclusion of the argument as a whole; thesecond provides support for that conclusion.B.The first provides support for the conclusion of the argument as awhole; the second provides evidence that supports an objection tothat conclusion.C.The first provides support for an intermediate conclusion thatsupports a further conclusion stated in the argument; the secondstates that intermediate conclusion.D.The first serves as an intermediate conclusion that supports afurther conclusion stated in the argument; the second states theposition that the argument as a whole opposes.E.The first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes;the second supports the conclusion of the argument.20.Most artists maintain an attitude of (i) toward their own work.They know, better than any critic would know, how their art(ii) their ambitions.

GRE(VERBAL)阅读模拟试卷7(题后含答案及解析)

GRE（VERBAL）阅读模拟试卷7(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. PART ONEPART ONE （Time：30 minutes 38 Questions）Mary Barton, particularly in its early chapters, is a moving response to the suffering of the industrial worker in the England of the 1840s. What is most impressive about the book is the intense and painstaking effort made by the author, Elizabeth Gaskell, to convey the experience of everyday life in working class homes. Her method is partly documentary in nature: the novel includes such features as a carefully annotate reproduction of dialect, the exact details of food prices in an account of a tea party, an itemized description of the furniture of the Bartons’living room, and a transcription (again annotated) of the ballad “The Oldham Weaver”. The interest of this record is considerable, even though the method has a slightly distancing effect.As a member of the middle class, Gaskell could hardly help approaching working-class life as an outside observer and a reporter, and the reader of the novel is always conscious of this fact. But there is genuine imaginative re-creation in her accounts of the walk in Green Heys Fields, of tea at the Bartons’house, and of John Barton and his friend’s discovery of the starving family in the cellar in the chapter “Poverty and Death.”Indeed, for a similarly convincing re-creation of such families’emotions and responses (which are more crucial than the material details on which the mere reporter is apt to concentrate), the English novel had to wait 60 years for the early writing of D. H. Lawrence. If Gaskell never quite conveys the sense of full participation that would completely authenticate this aspect of Mary Bartons, she still brings to these scenes an intuitive recognition of feelings that has its own sufficient conviction.The chapter “Old Aice’s History”brilliantly dramatizes the situation of that early generation of workers brought from the villages and the countryside to the urban industrial centers. The account of Job Leigh, the weaver and naturalist who is devoted to the study of biology, vividly embodies one kind of response to an urban industrial environment: an affinity for living things that hardens, by its very contrast with its environment, into a kind of crankiness. The early chapters —about factory workers walking out in spring into Green Heys Fields, about Alice Wilson, remembering in her cellar the twig-gathering for brooms in the native village that she will never again see, about job Leigh, intent on his impaled insects—capture the characteristic responses of a generation to the new and crushing experience of industrialism. The other early chapters eloquently portray the development of the instinctive cooperation with each other that was already becoming an important tradition among workers.1．It can be inferred from examples given in the last paragraph of the passagethat which of the following was part of “the new and crushing experience of industrialism”for many members of the English working class in the nineteenth century.A．Extortionate food pricesB．Geographical displacementC．Hazardous working conditionsD．Alienation from fellow workersE．Dissolution of family ties正确答案：B解析：examples指最后一段给出的四个例子，主要讲述了工人从农村到城市经历的环境变化。

Johnson as a great early jazz pianist, originator of the 1920's Harlem "stride" style, and an important blues and jazz composer. In addition, however, Johnson was an innovator in classical music, composing symphonic music that incorporated American, and especially African-American, traditions.Such a blend of musical elements was not entirely new: by 1924 both Milhaud and Gershwin had composed classical works that incorporated elements of jazz. Johnson, a serious musician more experienced than most classical composers with jazz, blues, spirituals, and popular music, was particularly suited to expand Milhaud's and Gershwin's experiments. In 1927 he completed his first large-scale work, the blues- and jazz-inspired Yamekraw, which included borrowings from spirituals and Johnson's own popular songs. Yamekraw, premiered successfully in Carnegie Hall, was a major achievement for Johnson, becoming his most frequently performed extended work. It demonstrated vividly the possibility of assimilating contemporary popular music into the symphonic tradition.6.The passage states that Johnson composed all of the following EXCEPTA.jazz worksB.popular songsC.symphonic musicD.spiritualsE.blues pieces7.Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.The author suggests which of the following about most classical composers of theearly 1920's?A.They were strongly influenced by the musical experiments of Milhaud andGershwin.B.They had little working familiarity with such forms of American music as jazz,blues, and popular songsC.They made few attempts to introduce innovations into the classicalsymphonic tradition8.The author suggests that most critics haveA.underrated the popularity of YamekrawB.undervalued Johnson's musical abilitiesC.had little interest in Johnson's influence on jazzD.had little regard for classical works that incorporate popular musicE.neglected Johnson's contribution to classical symphonic musicRevised GRE General TestVerbal Reasoning Sample Questions (9-10)Questions 9 and 10 are based on the following reading passage.Scholarship on political newspapers and their editors is dominated by the view that as the United States grew, the increasing influence of the press led, ultimately, to the neutral reporting from which we benefit today. Pasley considers this view oversimplified, because neutrality was not a goal of early national newspaper editing, even when editors disingenuously stated that they aimed to tell all sides of a story. Rather, the intensely partisan ideologies represented in newspapers of the early republic led to a clear demarcation between traditional and republican values.

Is this movement propelled by pulling the water from above or pushing it from below? The pull mechanism has long been favored by most scientists. First proposed in the late 1800's, the theory relies on a property of water not commonly associated with fluids: its tensile strength. Instead of making a clean break, water evaporating from treetops tugs on the remaining water molecules, with that tug extending from molecule to molecule all the way down to the roots. The tree itself does not actually push or pull; all the energy for lifting water comes from the sun's evaporative power.25.The passage is primarily concerned withA.refuting a hypothesis advanced by scientistsB.discussing the importance of a phenomenonC.presenting a possible explanation of a phenomenonD.contrasting two schools of thoughtE.discussing the origins of a theory26.Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?A.The pull theory is not universally accepted by scientists.B.The pull theory depends on one of water's physical properties.C.The pull theory originated earlier than did the push theory.27.The passage provides information on each of the following EXCEPTA.when the pull theory originatedB.the amount of water a tall tree can transportC.the significance of water's tensile strength in the pull theoryD.the role of the sun in the pull theoryE.the mechanism underlying water's tensile strengthProducing and using biodiesel, a fuel derived from cultivated rapeseed, causes 35 percent less air pollution per gallon than does producing and using regular diesel fuel. The government plans to reduce diesel-related air pollution over the next decade by 25 percent, so replacing regular diesel with biodiesel would seem to be the obvious solution. Unfortunately, the greatest possible production of biodiesel would amount to only one percent of all diesel fuel to be produced during the next 15 years.28.The passage is structured to lead to which of the following as a conclusion?A.The use of biodiesel will increase by less than one percent over the next 15years.B.During the next 15 years, the production of biodiesel will be increased as fastas it is possible to increase it.C.During the next 15 years, it will be impossible, just by switching to biodiesel,to meet the government's stated goal with respect to reducing air pollution.D.Fifteen years from now, the air pollution caused by the production and use ofone gallon of regular diesel fuel will be far less than it currently is.E.There will be no significant year-to-year increase in the amount of regulardiesel fuel used during the next 15 years.Revised GRE General TestVerbal Reasoning Answer Key1.D--impoverishedE--infertile2.C--deflectE--shrug off3.A--elegantF--chic4.A--neglectedB--slighted5.D--laconicF--taciturn6.D--spirituals7.B--They had little working familiarity with such forms of American music as jazz,blues, and popular songs.8.E--neglected Johnson's contribution to classical symphonic music9.C--The editorial policies of some early United States newspapers became acounterweight to proponents of traditional values.10.A--insincerely11.a doctrinaire12.(i) ambivalence (ii) successful (iii) assuage13.(i) multifaceted (ii) extraneous14.recapitulates15.(i) mimicking (ii) transmitted to16.E--affirm the thematic coherence underlying Raisin in the Sun17.C--The painter of this picture could not intend it to be funny; therefore, its humormust result from a lack of skill.18.Sentence 5--But the play's complex view of Black self-esteem and human solidarityas compatible is no more "contradictory" than Du Bois's famous, well-considered ideal of ethnic self-awareness coexisting with human unity, or Fanon's emphasis on an ideal internationalism that also accommodates national identities and roles.19.C--The first provides support for an intermediate conclusion that supports a furtherconclusion stated in the argument; the second states that intermediate conclusion.20.(i) opaque to (ii) an arcane21.(i) healthy disrespect (ii) falls far short of (iii) at another level altogether22.entitlement23.(i) unorthodox (ii) aloof from (iii) strongly ahistorical24.A--There have been some open jobs for which no qualified FasCorp employeeapplied.25.C--presenting a possible explanation of a phenomenon26.A--The pull theory is not universally accepted by scientists.B--The pull theory depends on one of water's physical properties.27.E--the mechanism underlying water's tensile strength28.C--During the next 15 years, it will be impossible, just by switching to biodiesel, tomeet the government's stated goal with respect to reducing air pollution.。
