Now manufacturers are introducing fat-free versions of various foods that they claim have the taste and texture of the traditional high-fat versions. Even if the manufacturers’s claim is true, given that the availability of sugar-free foods did not reduce sugar consumption, it is unlikely that the availability of these fat-free foods will reduce fat consumption. Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the argument?A several kinds of fat substitute are available to manufacturers, each of which gives a noticeably different taste and texture to products that contain it.B the products made with artificial sweeteners did not taste like products made with sugar.C the foods brought out in sugar-free versions did not generally have reduced levels of fat, but many of the fat-free versions about to be introduced are low in sugar.D people who regularly consume products containing artificial sweeteners are more likely than others to consume fat-free foods.E not all foods containing fat can be produced in fat-free versions.(8-11题基于以下文章阅读)Recent studies of sediment in the North Atlantic’deep waters reveal possible cyclical patterns in the history of Earth’s climate. The rock fragments in these sediments are too large to have been transported there by ocean currents, they must have reached their present locations by traveling in large icebergs that floated long distance from their point of origin before melting. Geologist Gerard Bond noticed that some of the sediment grains were stained with iron oxide, evidence that they originated in locales where glaciers had overrun outcrops of red sand stone. Bond’s detailed analysis of deep-water sediment cores showed changes in the mix of sediment sources over time: the proportion of these red-stained grains fluctuated back and forth from lows of 5 percent to highs of about 17 percent, and these fluctuations occurred in a nearly regular 1,500-year cycle.Bond hypothesized that the alternation cycles might be evidence of changes in ocean-water circulation and therefore in Earth’s climate. He knew that the sources of the red-stained grains were generally closer to the North Pole than were the places yielding a high proportion of“clean” grains. At certain times, apparently, more icebergs from the Arctic Ocean in the far north were traveling south well into the North Atlantic before melting and shedding their sediment.Ocean waters are constantly moving. And water temperature is both a cause and an effect of this movement. As water cools, it becomes denser and sinks to the ocean’s bottom. During some periods, the bottom layer of the world’s oceans comes from cold, dense water sinking in the far North Atlantic. This causes the warm surface waters of the Gulf Stream to be pulled northward. Bond realized that during such periods, the influx of these warm surface waters into northern regions could cause a large proportion of the icebergs that bear red grains to melt before traveling very far into the North Atlantic. But sometimes the ocean’s dynamic changes, and waters from the Gulf stream do not travel northward in this way. During these periods, surface waters in the North Atlantic would generally be colder, permitting icebergs bearing red-stained grains to travel farther south in the North Atlantic before melting and depositing their sediment.The onset of the so-called Little Ice Age(1300-1860), which followed the Medieval Warm Period of the eighth through tenth centuries, may represent the most recent time that the ocean’s dynamic changed in this way. If ongoing climate-history studies support Bond’s hypothesis of 1,500-year cycles, scientists may establish a ma jor natural rhythm in Earth’s temperatures that could then be extrapolated into the future. Because the midpoint of the Medieval Warm Period was about AD.850, an extension of Bond’s cycles would place the midpoint of the next warm interval in the twenty-fourth century.8 according to the passage, which of the following is true of the rock fragments contained in the sediments studied by Bond?A the majority of them are composed of red sandstone.B they must have reached their present location over 1,500 years ago.C they were carried by icebergs to their present location.D Most of them were carried to their present location during a warm period in Earth’s climatic history.E They are unlikely to have been carried to their present location during the Little Ice Age.9 In the final paragraph of the passage, the author is concerned primarily withA answering a question about Earth’s climatic historyB pointing out a potential flaw in Bond’s hypothesisC suggesting a new focus for the study of ocean sedimentsD tracing the general history of Earth’s climateE discussing possible implications of Bond’s hypothesis.10 According to the passage, Bond hypothesized that which of the following circumstances would allow red-stained sediment grains to reach more southerly latitudes?A Warm waters being pulled northward from the Gulf StreamB Climatic conditions causing icebergs to melt relatively quicklyC Icebergs containing a higher proportion of iron oxide than usualD The formation of more icebergs than usual in the far northE the presence of cold surface waters in the North Atlantic11 It can be inferred from the passage that in sediment cores from the North Atlantic’s deep waters, the portions that corres pond to the Little Ice AgeA differ very little in composition from the portions that correspond to the Medieval Warm Period.B fluctuate significantly in composition between the portions corresponding to the 1300s and the portions corresponding to the 1700sC would be likely to contain a proportion of red-stained grains closer to 17 percent than to 5 percent.D show a much higher proportion of red-stained grains in cores extracted from the far north of the North Atlantic than in cores extracted from further south.E were formed in part as a result of Gulf Stream waters having been pulled northward.12 Early critics of Emily Dickinson’s poetry mistook for simplemindedness the surface of artlessness that in fact she constructed with suchA astonishmentB craftC cunningD innocenceE naiveteF vexation13 The macromolecule RNA is common to all living beings, and DNA, which is found in all organisms except some bacteria, is almostA comprehensiveB fundamentalC inclusiveD universalE significantF ubiquitous14 While in many ways their personalities could not have been more different—she was ebullient where he was glum, relaxed where he was awkward, garrulous where he was --they were surprisingly well suited.A solicitousB munificentC irresoluteD laconicE fastidiousF taciturn15 Even in this business, where________is part of everyday life, a talent of lying is not something usually found on one’s resume.A aspirationB mendacityC prevaricationD insensitivityE basenessF avarice(16题基于以下文章阅读)Historians frequently employ probate inventories- lists of possessions compiles after a person’s death—to estimate standard of living. Because these inventories were taken by amateur assessors according to unwritten rules, they are sometimes unreliable. One way to check their accuracy is to compare them to archaeological records. A study of records from the state of Delaware in the eighteenth century found that while very few inventories listed earthenware, every excavation contained earthenware. Earthenware may have gone unlisted simply because it was inexpensive. But if it was so commonplace, why was it listed more often for wealthy households?Perhaps the more earthenware people had, the more likely appraisers were to note it. A few bowls could easily be absorbed into another category, but a roomful of earthenware could not.16 Select the sentence that provides support for an answer to a question in the passage.(17-19题基于以下文章阅读)In the 1980s, neuroscientists studying the brain processes underlying our sense of conscious wil l compared subjects’ judgments regarding their subjective will to move(W) and actual movement(M) with objective electroencephalographic activity called readiness potential, or RP. As expected, W preceded M: subjects consciously perceived the intention to move as preceding a conscious experience of actually moving. This might seem to suggest an appropriate correspondence between the sequence of subjective experiences and the sequence of the underlying events in the brain. But researchers actually found a surprising temporal relation between subjective experience and objectively measured neural events: in direct contradiction of the classical conception of free will, neural preparation to move(RP) preceded conscious awareness of the intention to move(W) by hundreds of milliseconds.17 based on information contained in the passage, which of the following chains of events would most closely conform to the classical conception of free will?A W followed by RP followed by MB RP followed by W followed by MC M followed by W followed by RPD RP followed by M followed by WE RP followed by W and M simultaneously18 in the context in which it appears, ‘temporal’ most nearly meansA secularB mundaneC numericalD physiologicalE chronological19 the author of the passage mentions the classical conception of free will primarily in order toA argue that earlier theories regarding certain brain processes were based on false assumptionsB suggest a possible flaw in the reasoning of neuroscientists conducting the study discussed in the passageC provide a possible explanation for the unexpected results obtained by neuroscientistsD cast doubt on neuroscientists’ conclusions regarding the temporal sequence of brain processesE indicate the reason that the results of the n euroscientists’ study were surprising.20.(逻辑题)Rain-soaked soil contains less oxygen than does drier soil. The roots of melon plants perform less efficiently under the low-oxygen conditions present in rain-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 a lower-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.In the argument given, the two highlighted portions play which of the following roles?A the first states the conclusion of the argument as a whole, the second provides support for that conclusion.B the first provide support for the conclusion of the argument as a whole, the second provides evidence that support an objection to that conclusion.C the first provide support for an intermediate conclusion that support a further conclusion stated in the argument, the second states that intermediate conclusion.D the first serves as an intermediate conclusion that support a further conclusion stated in the argument, the second states the position 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 .参考答案:1C 2 E 3 CD 4 BD 5 AF 6 ADG 7 B 8 C 9 E 10 E 11 C 12 BC 13 DF 14 DF 15 BC 16 最后一句 17 B 18 E 19 E 20 CSection41 Far from viewing Jefferson as a skeptical but enlightened intellectual, historian s of the 1960’s portrayed him as______thinker, eager to fill the young with his political orthodoxy while censoring ideas he did not like.(A) an adventurous(B) a doctrinaire(C) an eclectic(D) a judicious(E) a cynical2 stories are a haunted genre, hardly(i)________kind of story, the ghost story is almost the paradigm of the form, and(ii)________ was undoubtedly one effect that Poe had in mind when he wrote about how stories work.3 the playwright’s approach is(i)________ in that her works(ii)______ the theatrical devices normally used to create drama on the stage4 I’ve long anticipated this retrospective of the artist’s work, hoping it would make (i)______ judgments about him possible, but greater familiarity with his paintings highlights their inherent (ii)______ and actually makes one’s assessment(iii)_______ .5 Higher energy prices would have many (i)_______ effects on society as a whole.

Johnson as a great early jazz pianist, originator of the 1920sHarlem“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 Mihaud’s 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 ma jor achievement for Johnson, becoming his most frequently performed extended work. It demonstrated vividly the possibility of assimilating contemporary popular music into the symphonic tradition.7 which if the following best describes the organization of the passage?A a historical overview is presented, and a particular phenomenon is noted and analyzed.B a popular belief is challenged, and a rival interpretation is presented and supported.C a common viewpoint is presented and modified, and the modification is supported.D an observation is made and rejected, and evidence for that rejection is presented.E a common claim is investigated, and an alternative outlook is analyzed and criticized.8 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyThe author suggests which of the following about most classical composers of the early 1920s?A they were strongly influenced by the musical experiments of Milhaud and GershwinB they had little working familiarity with such forms of American music as jazz, blues, and popular songs.C they made few attempts to introduce innovations into the classical symphonic tradition.9 the passage states that Johnson composed all of the following EXCEPT :A jazz worksB popular songsC symphonic musicD spiritualsE blues pieces(10-11题基于以下文章阅读)The nearly circular orbits of planets in our solar system led scientists to expect that planets around other stars would also reside in circular orbits. However, most known extrasolar planets reside in highly elongated, not circular, orbits. Why? The best clue comes from comets in our solar system. Comets formed in circular orbits but were gravitationally flung into their present-day elliptical orbits when they ventured too close to planets. Astronomers suspect that pairs of planets also engage in this slingshot activity, leaving them in disturbed, elliptical orbits. If two planets form in close orbits, one will be scattered inward(toward its star), the other outward. They will likely then travel close enough to neighboring planets to disturb their orbits also.10 consider each of the choices and select all that applyAccording to the passage, which of the following factors help account for the elliptical shape of the orbits of extrasolar planet?A the planet’s formation in close proximity to other planetsB the gravitational influence of planets whose original orbits have been disturbedC the gravitational influence of comets11 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyThe passage suggests that two planets formed in close orbits that engaged in ‘slingshot activity’ would be likely toA deflect away from each otherB change the shape of each other’s orbitC affect the orbits of any neighboring planets12 Once White stepped down from a political platform, where his daring,______ speeches provoked baying applause from audiences, he was courteous and considerate even to politicians he had just slandered in the speech.A floridB defamatoryC calumniousD inveiglingE timorousF diffident13 clearly the government faced a dilemma: it could hardly_____trials, especially in the absence of irrefutable evidence, but it also would not welcome, in the midst of war, the scandal that would arise if trials were avoided.A be keen onB be inclined toC arrangeD dispense withE turn its back onF credit14 the hodgepodge nature of local and federal law enforcement and the changing but often still inadequate regulations governing the credit industry make identity theft a particularly ________crime.A unobjectionableB viableC dubiousD innocuousE uncontrollableF intractable15 Economic competition among nations may lead to new forms of economic protectionism that hearken back to the mercantilism of an earlier age: there are signs today that such protectionism is indeed_______ .A evanescentB resurgentC recrudescentD transitoryE controversialF inimical( 16-17题基于以下文章阅读)According to the conventional view, serfdom in nineteenth-century Russia inhibited economic growth. In this view Russian peasants’status as serfs kept them poor through burdensome taxes in cash, in labor, and in kin d; through restrictions on mobility, and through various forms of coercion. Melton, however, argues that serfdom was perfectly compatible with economic growth, because many Russian serfs were able to get around landlord’rules and regulations. If serfs could pay for passports, they were usually granted permission to leave the estate. If they could pay the fine, they could establish a separate household; and if they had the resources, they could hire laborers to cultivate the communal lands, while they themselves engaged in trade or worked as migrant laborers in cities.16 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyIt can be inferred from the passage that the “rules and regulations” affecting serfdom in Russia involvedA responsibility f or the work needed to accomplish certain defined tasksB restrictions on freedom of movementC limitations on the ability to set up an independent household.17 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyThe highlighted sentence has which of the following functions in the passage?A it provides support for an argument presented in the preceding sentenceB it provides e vidence that helps undermine a view introduced in the first sentenceC it raises a question that the succeeding sentence will resolve.18(逻辑题)The dusky salamander lives only in slow-moving streams where organic debris settles and accumulates. In almost all places in New York State where dusky salamanders used to live, suburban development has cleared uplands and put down asphalt. As a result, rainwater now runs directly into streams, causing increased flow that slows the accumulation of organicsediments. Therefore, it is probably the increased flow caused by suburban development that is responsible for the duskysal amander’s virtual disappearance from New York State.Which if the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument?A Since 1980 the suburban population of New York State has grown ten times faster than urban population.B Dusky salamanders have disappeared in the past ten years from some suburban areas of New York State that were originally developed more than a century ago and that have not experienced significant development for decades.C The two-line salamander, a species that lives in both slow and swift moving waters, continues to thrive in streams in New York State from which dusky salamanders have disappeared.D Suburban development in New York State contributes significantly to pollution of local streams with lawn fertilizers that are poisonous to most small aquatic animals.E Much of the suburban development in New York State has been occurring in areas that never provided prime habitat for dusky salamanders.(19-20题基于以下文章阅读)While the influence of British magazines in shaping public opinion predates the nineteenth century, it was during the 1800s that mass distribution became possible and an explosion in periodical readership occurred, vastly increasing magazine’sopinion-shaping powers. The role of magazines as arbiters of nineteenth-century taste is seen in their depictions of the London theater. The magazines accorded some legitimacy to East End working-class theaters that mirrored the format of the fashionable West End theaters serving middle-and upper-class audiences. However, the magazines also depicted music halls—which competed for patronage with all theaters—as places where crass entertainment corrupted spectators’s taste and morals. Finally, they suggested that popular demand for substandard fare created a market unfriendly to higher expressions of dramatic art.19 the author of the passage attributes the influence of British periodicals in shaping public opinion in the nineteenth century in part toA a growing public interest in reading opinion piecesB an increase in the relative number of readers from the middle and upper classesC changes in the way in which magazines were distributedD magazines’s increased coverage of theater and popular entertainmentE changes in magazine format that attracted a wider readership20 the author of the passage mentions “East End working-class theaters” primarily in order toA illustrate a point ab out the ability of magazines to sway public opinionB contrast the kinds of entertainment presented in East End and West End theatersC make a point ab out how spectators’s tastes influenced the offerings at different kind of theatersD explain how magazine chose which kinds of entertainment to cover.E identify factors that helped make certain theaters fashionable参考答案1 B 2AE 3 BD 4 BEG 5 CFI 6 ADH 7 C 8 C 9 D 10 AB 11 ABC 12 BC 13 A B 14 EF15 BC 16 ABC 17 AB 18 C 19 C 20 A。

新GRE Verbal部分考试分析

备考建议: 二、 二、备考建议:
1. 单词。任何一本单词书,一般都包括4类单词。 1.1,易混单词。比如 truculent,petulant 等等。 1.2,那些你背了很多遍,还是背不住的单词, 应该每隔一段时间,整理出来, 集中去背。 1.3,一“生” 一“世”的单词--也即那些由“3”个字母或者“4”个字母组成 的单词(这些单词,由于短,没有词根,长得又像,也应该整理出来,花时间去 背) 。 1.4,派生词。由于在考试的时候,几乎所有的单词出现的形式都是以其派生词 出现的,所以,应该对派生词熟悉,而不仅仅是一个单词的原型:包括填空、 阅 读等。 此外,还可以适当的运用一些一些技巧,比如: 1.1. 1,比如制作卡片。 1.1.1 在备考的时候,单词的确很重要,但没必要花一整块的时间去背。比如我建议我 的学生在备考的时候,是这样去背的。比如说,每天睡觉之前, 起来之后。吃饭之前和之后等零碎时间。 2,可以去哄自己背单词。 1.2. 1.2.2 因为备考 GRE 是需要较多的时间的,大家如果在备考比较累或者烦的时候。比如 我会建议我的学生, 每次在自习室备考到烦躁, 想早点离开的时候, 就告诉自己, 想离开?背完这 5 个 list 单词,再说吧。就这样,每天都是这样哄自己背单词 的。 如果你是一个女生,哈哈, 比如你喜欢美容什么的,每天就可以这样哄自己: 想面膜?背几个 list 再说...
备考建议:备考材料:老 G 所有题目。新 G 的所有题目。额外资料:Princeton Review) 3. 阅读部分 备考材料:老 G 的题目。新 G 的所有题目。与填空类似,新 G 阅读部分,大部分 也来源于老 G 的题目的改编或者一模一样。 在备考的过程中,可以从如下几点备考: 1,把所有题目做过两三遍以上。注意分析文章的结构。 2,把遇到所有的生词,自己整理到 word 里,最好包括原文的例句。打印出来定 时复习。不推荐做陈虎平老师改编的阅读36套。理由是:长文章改编后,多数文 章残缺不全,逻辑混乱。甚至短文章也有的,比如下面这篇:

新GREOG第二版填空解析和考试新现象

新GREOG第二版填空解析和考试新现象1摘要:新GRE OG 第二版与第一版的区别是增加了T est-2部分,即仅仅增加了两个全新的Verbal Section 。
本文通过分析新版OG 中增加的填空题目,与《新GRE 核心考法词汇精析》中的单词的解释、同反义词作对比,发现填空题目的句子结构会出现反复重考的现象,即句子结构和意思与原来的考题几乎相同,比如test-2第一个section 的第3题;也发现了“熟词僻意”的现象,即熟悉的单词考察生僻的意思,比如compromise 并不是之前大部分人所熟悉的“妥协”的意思,而是“使危险”“损害”的意思。
最后,根据新题目给出填空与词汇的复习建议和备考策略。
自从ETS 在7月底出版新GRE OG 第二版以后,在电商的网站的都有销售,实体书店的销售要到8月份,在拿到新OG 的第二版后我们与第一版做了比较,发现只增加了Test2。
而其中的两个新增Verbal Section 格外引人注意,在新GRE 样题很少的情况下,我们对题目做了分析,发现以下两个现象(以下题目均出自Test2的新题):一、反复重考:3. The brief survey, published under the title The Work of Nature: How the Diversity of Life Sustains Us , is surprisingly (i)________. Indeed it makes several longer treatments of the effects of lost biodiversity seem (ii)________.Blank (i) Blank (ii)A distorted 扭曲的 D redundant 多余的,冗长的B objective 客观的 E pithy 简洁的C comprehensive 全面的 F premature 早熟的首先第一个空格填入形容词,修饰的是survey ,而survey 的特点是“brief 简洁的”。

新版GRE词汇红宝书介绍

新版GRE词汇红宝书,你们了解多少呢?我们一起来看看吧,下面小编就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。
新版GRE词汇红宝书介绍新版GRE词汇红宝书有五大主要特点:1.单词数量有所减少,收录考试中出的重点单词,删除从未出现的单词,给学生减负。
同时增加了近几年考试中新出现过的单词。
2.GRE红宝书为每一个重要单词配出了贴切、精练的记忆方法,正文中以“【记】”标出。
其中包括:词根词缀法、联想记忆法和发音记忆法。
3.给大量的重要单词配上了同根词、派生词、形近词和反义词,扩大了横向词汇量,达到了举一反三的效果。
4. 对单词进行了分类处理,凡是重点单词都标上.,考生可以分类记忆。
5.给单词配上了简单明了的英文注解,同时,在英语注解后也加上了GRE常考的同义词,达到了单词联合记忆的目的。
如何使用GRE红宝书1.第一阶段开展GRE词汇练习,可以按杨鹏的17天全面背诵或按自己的情况量体裁衣,最好利用集中时间比如寒暑假,早中晚轮番轰炸,时间最好不超过1个月,有空多听G RE红宝书MP3的单词录音;2.第二阶段背GRE红宝书,时间要快,强化记忆,以提高效率,一定要记住重复再重复。
这时大家可以利用红宝书(+逆序版+乱序版)进行词汇巩固。
3. 第三轮背高频词即常考的词,可以利用词汇串讲来背词频。
4.在熟悉词汇的基础上可以做GRE真题了,多在实战中记忆单词,并在大量阅读中总结单词,比单纯记单词更有成效且有针对性。
需注意的是虽然GRE红宝书中提供了丰富的记忆方式,但由于GRE词汇量较大,并且考查单词的精确含义,“坚持”二字依旧应该作为单词识记的主题。
GRE词汇书选择原则1. 挑选正版书籍词汇书一定要买正版。
主要原因还是在于内容质量上盗版词汇书往往制作粗心大意,内容经常出现缺略甚至错误,这对于需要把握词汇准确意义打好备考基础的同学可谓非常致命,所以如果要买实体书,那么就不要太过纠结于省钱,选一本正版才是王道。
2. 选正规的大出版社就像上文所说,目前市面上词汇书种类太多,想买到一本好的词汇书,就必须注重对词汇的用法、释义有精准把握,还需要对GRE考试有深远的洞察力。
GRE填空等价题型3种选项组合pattern难度逐一解读

GRE填空等价题型3种选项组合pattern难度逐一解读GRE填空等价题型3种选项组合pattern难度逐一解读,我们一起来学习一下吧,下面就和大家分享,来欣赏一下吧。
GRE填空等价题型3种选项组合pattern难度逐一解读GRE填空中难度比较高的题型,不是复杂的多空题,而是被很多考生视为难关的等价题。
比起其它填空题一个空格只需要选出一个合适的答案来说,考生应对等价题找近义同义词显然对词汇要求更高。
GRE等价3种选项组合类型模式分析来为大家分析一下GRE填空等价3大选项类型并分析难度。
1.只有一对正确(only one)所谓的only one,也就是在六个选项当中,只有一个对同义词或近义词的正确的。
举例来说:pale、flexible、hidden、celebrated、equitable 、fair在以上六个选项中,哪对是同义词呢?很多考生会选择pale与fair,因为与颜色有关,但是pale是病态的苍白,而fair表示皮肤白皙。
所以正确的答案是equitable与fair就是公平的,而在其余的选项中再也不能寻找到其余的近义词或者是同义词,所以是only one类型。
难度分析:only one类型的选项配置,在等价题中可以说是相对难度最低的题目。
毕竟考生哪怕无法认全所有单词,只要找到一对意思相近的词汇,很有可能就能直接找到答案。
但即使如此,大家也不能轻视这种题目,毕竟像上文例子中举出的看似意思相近其实并不匹配的情况也不在少说。
2.两对同义词互扰(two by two)比起only one,这种两对式的等价题就比较让人头疼了。
也许是考虑到很多考生在面对等价题时会选择不看题目直接看选项找同近义词的功利做法,ETS在如今的等价题中更多采用多对同近义词选项的配置方式,让许多盲目求快走捷径的考生因此吃了不少苦头。
two by two顾名思义就是说六个选项中有两对同义词或者是近义词,这样的话,无疑就为考生增加了答题的难度。

Now manufacturers are introducing fat-free versions of various foods that they claim have the taste and texture of the traditional high-fat versions. Even if the manufacturers’s claim is true, given that the availability of sugar-free foods did not reduce sugar consumption, it is unlikely that the availability of these fat-free foods will reduce fat consumption.Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the argument?A several kinds of fat substitute are available to manufacturers, each of which gives a noticeably different taste and texture to products that contain it.B the products made with artificial sweeteners did not taste like products made with sugar.C the foods brought out in sugar-free versions did not generally have reduced levels of fat, but many of the fat-free versions about to be introduced are low in sugar.D people who regularly consume products containing artificial sweeteners are more likely than others to consume fat-free foods.E not all foods containing fat can be produced in fat-free versions.(8-11题基于以下文章阅读)Recent studies of sediment in the North Atlantic’deep waters reveal possible cyclical patterns in the history of Earth’s climate. The rock fragments in these sediments are too large to have been transported there by ocean currents, they must have reached their present locations by traveling in large icebergs that floated long distance from their point of origin before melting. Geologist Gerard Bond noticed that some of the sediment grains were stained with iron oxide, evidence that they originated in locales where glaciers had overrun outcrops of red sandstone. Bond’s detailed analysis of deep-water sediment cores showed changes in the mix of sediment sources over time: the proportion of these red-stained grains fluctuated back and forth from lows of 5 percent to highs of about 17 percent, and these fluctuations occurred in a nearly regular 1,500-year cycle.Bond hypothesized that the alternation cycles might be evidence of changes in ocean-water circulation and therefore in Earth’s climate. He knew that the sources of the red-stained grains were generally closer to the North Pole than were the places yielding a high proportion of “clean” grains. At certain times, apparently, more icebergs from the Arctic Ocean in the far north were traveling south well into the North Atlantic before melting and shedding their sediment. Ocean waters are constantly moving. And water temperature is both a cause and an effect of this movement. As water cools, it becomes denser and sinks to the ocean’s bottom. During some periods, the bottom layer of the world’s oceans comes from cold, dense water sinking in the far North Atlantic. This causes the warm surface waters of the Gulf Stream to be pulled northward. Bond realized that during such periods, the influx of these warm surface waters into northern regions could cause a large proportion of the icebergs that bear red grains to melt before traveling very far into the North Atlantic. But sometimes the ocean’s dynamic changes, and waters from the Gulf stream do not travel northward in this way. During these periods, surface waters in the North Atlantic would generally be colder, permitting icebergs bearing red-stained grains to travel farther south in the North Atlantic before melting and depositing their sediment.The onset of the so-called Little Ice Age(1300-1860), which followed the Medieval Warm Period of the eighth through tenth centuries, may represent the most recent time that the ocean’s dynamic changed in this way. If ongoing climate-history studies support Bond’s hypothesis of 1,500-year cycles, scientists may establish a major natural rhythm in Earth’s temperatures that could then be extrapolated into the future. Because the midpoint of the Medieval Warm Period was aboutAD.850, an extension of Bond’s cycles would place the midpoint of the next warm interval in the twenty-fourth century.8 according to the passage, which of the following is true of the rock fragments contained in the sediments studied by Bond?A the majority of them are composed of red sandstone.B they must have reached their present location over 1,500 years ago.C they were carried by icebergs to their present location.D Most of them were carried to their present location during a warm period in Earth’s climatic history.E They are unlikely to have been carried to their present location during the Little Ice Age.9 In the final paragraph of the passage, the author is concerned primarily withA answering a question about Earth’s climatic historyB pointing out a potential flaw in Bond’s hypothesisC suggesting a new focus for the study of ocean sedimentsD tracing the general history of Earth’s climateE discussing possible implications of Bond’s hypothesis.10 According to the passage, Bond hypothesized that which of the following circumstances would allow red-stained sediment grains to reach more southerly latitudes?A Warm waters being pulled northward from the Gulf StreamB Climatic conditions causing icebergs to melt relatively quicklyC Icebergs containing a higher proportion of iron oxide than usualD The formation of more icebergs than usual in the far northE the presence of cold surface waters in the North Atlantic11 It can be inferred from the passage that in sediment cores from the North Atlantic’s deep waters, the portions that correspond to the Little Ice AgeA differ very little in composition from the portions that correspond to the Medieval Warm Period.B fluctuate significantly in composition between the portions corresponding to the 1300s and the portions corresponding to the 1700sC would be likely to contain a proportion of red-stained grains closer to 17 percent than to 5 percent.D show a much higher proportion of red-stained grains in cores extracted from the far north of the North Atlantic than in cores extracted from further south.E were formed in part as a result of Gulf Stream waters having been pulled northward.12 Early critics of Emily Dickinson’s poetry mistook for simplemindedness the surface of artlessness that in fact she constructed with suchA astonishmentB craftC cunningD innocenceE naiveteF vexation13 The macromolecule RNA is common to all living beings, and DNA, which is found in all organisms except some bacteria, is almostA comprehensiveB fundamentalC inclusiveD universalE significantF ubiquitous14 While in many ways their personalities could not have been more different—she was ebullient where he was glum, relaxed where he was awkward, garrulous where he was --they were surprisingly well suited.A solicitousB munificentC irresoluteD laconicE fastidiousF taciturn15 Even in this business, where________is part of everyday life, a talent of lying is not something usually found on one’s resume.A aspirationB mendacityC prevaricationD insensitivityE basenessF avarice(16题基于以下文章阅读)Historians frequently employ probate inventories- lists of possessions compiles after a person’s death—to estimate standard of living. Because these inventories were taken by amateur assessors according to unwritten rules, they are sometimes unreliable. One way to check their accuracy is tocompare them to archaeological records. A study of records from the state of Delaware in the eighteenth century found that while very few inventories listed earthenware, every excavation contained earthenware. Earthenware may have gone unlisted simply because it was inexpensive. But if it was so commonplace, why was it listed more often for wealthy households?Perhaps the more earthenware people had, the more likely appraisers were to note it. A few bowls could easily be absorbed into another category, but a roomful of earthenware could not.16 Select the sentence that provides support for an answer to a question in the passage.(17-19题基于以下文章阅读)In the 1980s, neuroscientists studying the brain processes underlying our sense of conscious will compared subjects’ judgments regarding their subjective will to move(W) and actual movement(M) with objective electroencephalographic activity called readiness potential, or RP. As expected, W preceded M: subjects consciously perceived the intention to move as preceding a conscious experience of actually moving. This might seem to suggest an appropriate correspondence between the sequence of subjective experiences and the sequence of the underlying events in the brain. But researchers actually found a surprising temporal relation between subjective experience and objectively measured neural events: in direct contradiction of the classical conception of free will, neural preparation to move(RP) preceded conscious awareness of the intention to move(W) by hundreds of milliseconds.17 based on information contained in the passage, which of the following chains of events would most closely conform to the classical conception of free will?A W followed by RP followed by MB RP followed by W followed by MC M followed by W followed by RPD RP followed by M followed by WE RP followed by W and M simultaneously18 in the context in which it appears, ‘temporal’ most nearly meansA secularB mundaneC numericalD physiologicalE chronological19 the author of the passage mentions the classical conception of free will primarily in order toA argue that earlier theories regarding certain brain processes were based on false assumptionsB suggest a possible flaw in the reasoning of neuroscientists conducting the study discussed in the passageC provide a possible explanation for the unexpected results obtained by neuroscientistsD cast doubt on neuroscientists’ conclusions regarding the temporal sequence of brain processesE indicate the reason that the results of the neuroscientists’ study were surprising.20.(逻辑题)Rain-soaked soil contains less oxygen than does drier soil. The roots of melon plants perform less efficiently under the low-oxygen conditions present in rain-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 thatmelon plants have a lower-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.In the argument given, the two highlighted portions play which of the following roles?A the first states the conclusion of the argument as a whole, the second provides support for that conclusion.B the first provide support for the conclusion of the argument as a whole, the second provides evidence that support an objection to that conclusion.C the first provide support for an intermediate conclusion that support a further conclusion stated in the argument, the second states that intermediate conclusion.D the first serves as an intermediate conclusion that support a further conclusion stated in the argument, the second states the position 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 .参考答案:1C 2 E 3 CD 4 BD 5 AF 6 ADG 7 B 8 C 9 E 10 E 11 C 12 BC 13 DF 14 DF 15 BC 16 最后一句 17 B 18 E 19 E 20 CSection41 Far from viewing Jefferson as a skeptical but enlightened intellectual, historians of the 1960’s portrayed him as______thinker, eager to fill the young with his political orthodoxy while censoring ideas he did not like.(A) an adventurous(B) a doctrinaire(C) an eclectic(D) a judicious(E) a cynical2 stories are a haunted genre, hardly(i)________kind of story, the ghost story is almost the paradigm of the form, and (ii)________ was undoubtedly one effect that Poe had in mind when he wrote about how stories work.3 the playwright’s approach is(i)________ in that her works(ii)______ the theatrical devices normally used to create drama on the stage4 I’ve long anticipated this retrospective of the artist’s work, hoping it would make(i)______ judgments about him possible, but greater familiarity with his paintings highlights their inherent (ii)______ and actually makes one’s assessment(iii)_______ .5 Higher energy prices would have many (i)_______ effects on society as a whole.

Johnson as a great early jazz pianist, originator of the 1920s 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 Mihaud’s 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.7 which if the following best describes the organization of the passage?A a historical overview is presented, and a particular phenomenon is noted and analyzed.B a popular belief is challenged, and a rival interpretation is presented and supported.C a common viewpoint is presented and modified, and the modification is supported.D an observation is made and rejected, and evidence for that rejection is presented.E a common claim is investigated, and an alternative outlook is analyzed and criticized.8 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyThe author suggest which of the following about most classical composers of the early 1920s?A they were strongly influenced by the musical experiments of Milhaud and GershwinB they had little working familiarity with such forms of American music as jazz, blues, and popular songs.C they made few attempts to introduce innovations into the classical symphonic tradition.9 the passage states that Johnson composed all of the following EXCEPT :A jazz worksB popular songsC symphonic musicD spiritualsE blues pieces(10-11题基于以下文章阅读)The nearly circular orbits of planets in our solar system led scientists to expect that planets around other stars would also reside in circular orbits. However, most known extrasolar planets reside in highly elongated, not circular, orbits. Why? The best clue comes from comets in our solar system. Comets formed in circular orbits but were gravitationally flung into their present-day elliptical orbits when they ventured too close to planets. Astronomers suspect that pairs of planets also engage in this slingshot activity, leaving them in disturbed, elliptical orbits.

In this view Russian peasants’status as serfs kept them poor through burdensome taxes in cash, in labor, and in kind; through restrictions on mobility, and through various forms of coercion. Melton, however, argues that serfdom was perfectly compatible with economic growth, because many Russian serfs were able to get around landlord’rules and regulations. If serfs could pay for passports, they were usually granted permission to leave the estate. If they could pay the fine, they could establish a separate household; and if they had the resources, they could hire laborers to cultivate the communal lands, while they themselves engaged in trade or worked as migrant laborers in cities.16 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyIt can be inferred from the passage that the “rules and regulations” affecting serfdom inRussia involvedA responsibility for the work needed to accomplish certain defined tasksB restrictions on freedom of movementC limitations on the ability to set up an independent household.17 consider each of the choices separately and select all that applyThe highlighted sentence has which of the following functions in the passage?A it provides support for an argument presented in the preceding sentenceB it provides evidence that helps undermine a view introduced in the first sentenceC it raises a question that the succeeding sentence will resolve.18(逻辑题)The dusky salamander lives only in slow-moving streams where organic debris settles and accumulates. In almost all places in New York State where dusky salamanders used to live, suburban development has cleared uplands and put down asphalt. As a result, rainwater now runs directly into streams, causing increased flow that slows the accumulation of organic sediments. Therefore, it is probably the increased flow caused by suburban development that is responsiblefor the dusky salamander’s virtual disappearance from New York State.Which if the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument?A Since 1980 the suburban population of New York State has grown ten times faster than urban population.B Dusky salamanders have disappeared in the past ten years from some suburban areas of New York State that were originally developed more than a century ago and that have not experienced significant development for decades.C The two-line salamander, a species that lives in both slow and swift moving waters, continues to thrive in streams in New York State from which dusky salamanders have disappeared.D Suburban development in New York State contributes significantly to pollution of local streams with lawn fertilizers that are poisonous to most small aquatic animals.E Much of the suburban development in New York State has been occurring in areas that never provided prime habitat for dusky salamanders.(19-20题基于以下文章阅读)While the influence of British magazines in shaping public opinion predates the nineteenth century, it was during the 1800s that mass distribution became possible and an explosion in periodical readership occurred, vastly increasing magazine’s opinion-shaping powers. The role of magazines as arbiters of nineteenth-century taste is seen in their depictions of the London theater. The magazines accorded some legitimacy to East End working-class theaters that mirrored the format of the fashionable West End theaters serving middle-and upper-class audiences. However, the magazines also depicted music halls—which competed for patronage with all theaters—as places where crass entertainment corrupted spectators’s taste and morals. Finally, they suggested that popular demand for substandard fare created a market unfriendly to higher expressions of dramatic art.19 the author of the passage attributes the influence of British periodicals in shaping public opinion in the nineteenth century in part toA a growing public interest in reading opinion piecesB an increase in the relative number of readers from the middle and upper classesC changes in the way in which magazines were distributedD magazines’s increased coverage of theater and popular entertainmentE changes in magazine format that attracted a wider readership20 the author of the passage mentions “East End working-class theaters” primarily in order toA illustrate a point about the ability of magazines to sway public opinionB contrast the kinds of entertainment presented in East End and West End theatersC make a point about how spectators’s tastes influenced the offerings at different kind of theatersD explain how magazine chose which kinds of entertainment to cover.E identify factors that helped make certain theaters fashionable参考答案1 B 2AE 3 BD 4 BEG 5 CFI 6 ADH 7 C 8 C 9 D 10 AB 11 ABC 12 BC 13 A B 14 EF15 BC 16 ABC 17 AB 18 C 19 C 20 A[文档可能无法思考全面,请浏览后下载,另外祝您生活愉快,工作顺利,万事如意!]。
个人经验--新GRE复习资料

【个人点评】我还是买的纸质的。。。这本书不是很厚,里面讲解的方法和cracking大体相同,配有练习,可以参考。
3. [选读] 新东方绿皮 -- 新东方新G教材。
【个人点评】对于绿皮这一套我个人并不推荐使用,在此首先声明我并无对新东方老师们水平和劳动成果的质疑。这套书是新东方老师集体编纂的,其来源基本上都是改编自老G的真题,但是这与ETS的出题思路上不免有不一致的情况,并且难度上参差不齐。
10. [选读] 新GRE核心词汇-考法精析(再要你命3000) -- 新东方陈琦编纂的GRE单词书,词汇量3K+。
【个人点评】新东方传奇人物琦叔的要你命3K的新G版本,对于这本书褒贬不一。个人认为老G时代琦叔3K名冠江湖绝对是真才实料,其被封为类反圣经,即便是红宝也要怯其三分,而且经久不衰,不断传奇再现; however, well, you know...
2. [选读] 北美范文 -- 传说中的北美范文。
【个人点评】首先这本书目前没有新G版本,其次这本书中不是所有文章都在5分以上。所以这本书学语言可以,其他的就算了,仅供参考。
3. [不读] 大绿皮AW分册 -- crap
【个人点评】不解释。
4. [选读] 网上各种版本破题集 -- 网上破题的人很多,更有很多新东方老师在做这件事。
【个人点评】别人的老婆是别人的老婆,别人的大脑也一样是别人的大脑。你看了别人的老婆,你也顶多就是看看,娱乐还得基本靠手,所以你看了别人的破题,你也一样顶多是看看,考试还是得靠你自己。
5. [选读] College Writing Skills with readings -- 一本非常好的讲解英文写作的书。
5. [选读] 数学高分快速突破 -- 大蓝本中的数学分册,作者陈向东。书中是分了类的老G真题选集和讲解。
网友总结的GRE英语笔考Verbal简明攻略

网友总结的GRE英语笔考Verbal简明攻略网友总结的GRE英语笔考Verbal简明攻略大家现在所能见到的gre笔考题为90—99年共24套题。
现在还不知道十月开始的新笔考会采取怎样的试题结构,所以我以旧笔考题为例,谈谈笔试情况下verbal的对策。
一、试题结构及时间分配笔考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。
填空5——7分钟,类比2——3分钟,阅读12——18分钟,反义1——2分钟,共计20——30分钟。
在实战情况下,可以减少阅读的时间,再多给填空1——2分钟。
二、资料介绍尽信书不如无书1、红宝书和黑宝书蓝宝书2、猴哥的笔考机考类反大全(有些类反无理)3、笔考题24套+NO题(2——9)27套4、pp2review中的verbal5、陈圣元填空(重点为方法论)6、杨鹏难句7、杨继阅读的方法论部分8、宋昊书的方法论部分(入门)(暂时就这些)三、总论GRE的verbal究竟考什么?一定的词汇量+阅读能力。
一定的词汇量应对类反,方便阅读和填空,而一定的阅读能力则是应对填空和阅读的根本。
单词的背法:重复再重复,在二十天到一个月内,将一个section 滚动5至7遍。
阅读的提高:至少有四级的基础,泛读NO的阅读,精读杨鹏难句,直到适应GRE文章的长度。
备考时间:背单词,提高阅读能力一个月,做题两个月。
四、各部分具体对策1、填空请细读陈圣元的方法论。
记住填空的精髓:寻找重复。
首先扫读全句,如能理解句义,则直接寻找选项。
不能清楚理解句义,则运用技巧。
技巧无效,带入选项看句子是否通顺。
仍然不行,果断放弃。
2、类反可先阅读宋昊书的方法论部分。
请记住,在实践中背单词才是最好的方法。
背单词是纯粹的体力活,不要一味追求技巧。
3、阅读适应GRE文章的长度之后,可以看一下杨继阅读的方法论部分。
最好的方法:通读,这样既不用怕主题题,也不用怕细节题。
