这主要体现在两个方面：首先是词汇考查范围扩大。
由于题型设置的改变，导致考生必须明确选项中所有单词的含义才能有效做题，同时，样题中出现了许多老GRE填空题中从来没有出现的新词。
其次是对词汇的理解要求更为精确。
一些单词有好几重含义，需要考生通过上下文来判断题目中具体是什么含义。
由此可见，尽管新GRE取消了类比反义词，ETS 对词汇的考查并没有放松，而且更加关注单词在实际当中的使用。
因此，词汇还是整个GRE考试的基础。
2. 对阅读理解能力要求加深老GRE句子填空所有题目都只有一句话，而新GRE填空篇幅更为多样，这样填空题考查的能力范围进一步扩大：不仅要考查句子内部各部分之间的逻辑推理能力，还要考查句与句之间的逻辑推理能力。
着重加强了从上下文推断单词含义和正确答案能力的考查，这对考生阅读理解水平提出更高要求。
3. 考试题目偶然性降低，题目难度增大无论是篇章填空的多空题和等价填空都必须把所有选项都选对该题才可以得分，这大大降低了猜对选项的概率，结合前面两点要求，题目难度显著增大。

2019年GRE考试练习试题The slow pace of job creation was without precedent for the period ofrecovery from a recession, but the conditions that conspired to cause therecession were also (i)_______. The stock market declined sharply, and rampantbusiness investment slumped. Then an ensuing spate of scandals (ii)__________public trust in the way companies were run. And yet, despite these powerful(iii)________ to growth, the recession proved surprisingly mild.Blank (i) Blank (ii) Blank (iii)A. heartening D. weakened G. counterforcesB. atypical E. illuminated H. stimulantsC. ambiguous F. consolidated I. concomitants大家看到这样的题可能就要晕了，不是说好的填空题考的是单句吗?怎么出现了5行4个句子呢?这就说明三空题是鉴于传统填空(单句话)和阅读(段落)之间的状态。
那么对于这样的题目该如何处理呢?三空题一共9个选项，每个空选对的概率是1/3，所以整道题做对的概率就是1/27。
因为三空题所占比例不高，坊间很多老师就直接建议学生放弃三空题。
那么我们下面就来看看三空题到底是不是真就如此之难以至于要直接放弃。
首先来看选项。
A：鼓舞人心的 B：不寻常的 C：模糊不清的 D：削弱 E：阐明F：加固 G：负面力量，反作用力 H：刺激I：伴随物。
2019年GRE试题
2019年GRE试题阅读部分：Passage11.精讲B讲义mock3sec1(仅两道原题)古罗马文章传承困难。
主要有两种传承方式internal, external。
一段介绍internal 方法的问题，二三段介绍external 的问题。
Passage2文章大意：作者A的一本关于对黑人女性演讲家作家的书在业界很受重视。
作者B也写过相关的书。
这两者相同点是research scope 一致，但方法不一样。
B的书中对黑人女性演讲家的歧视来源于两个部分：社会的大的趋势;黑人内部男性对女性的质疑。
Passage3文章大意：A鱼的fishery 经历了一个collaps, 这看似正常，因为随着某种鱼的打渔业发展，都会经历一个从好到不好的周期。
但A 鱼还是不同的，因为原先它是不valuable的鱼，渔夫都懒地打，但他们会在收网时误捞不少。
后来想法变了，A鱼贵了起来，但是渔民们收网时还是只挑A鱼中最大的那条去卖。
Passage3文章大意：A鱼的fishery 经历了一个collaps, 这看似正常，因为随着某种鱼的打渔业发展，都会经历一个从好到不好的周期。
但A 鱼还是不同的，因为原先它是不valuable的鱼，渔夫都懒地打，但他们会在收网时误捞不少。
后来想法变了，A鱼贵了起来，但是渔民们收网时还是只挑A鱼中最大的那条去卖。
Passage5文章大意：瑞典原先采取centred-collective 政策来给工人发放工资，这可以减少贫富差距，并且还能使减少男女工人的薪资差异。
后来采取了相反的方式decentred-collective, 于是贫富差距大增，但这个inequality positively related to woman’s wage. 一群科学家开始在瑞典研究到底怎么样个情况，还说研究结果应该可以代表大多数发达国家的情况。
(中间部分各种无意义信息)最后一个人说即使decentred-collective带来了很大的贫富差距，之前的centred-collective 还是影响深远的。

2019年新GRE数学11道练习题及答案解析1：还有数列题：a1=2，a2=6，an=an-1/an-2，求a150.解答： an=an-1/an-2,所以an-1=an-2/an-3,带入前式得an=1/an-3,然后再拆一遍得到an=an-6,也就是说,这个数列是以6为周期的,则a150=a144=...=a6,利用a1,a2能够计算出a6=1/3.如果实在想不到这个方法,能够写几项看看很快就会发现a150=a144,大胆推测该数列是以6为周期得,然后写出a1-a13(也就是写到你能看出来规律),不难发现a6=a12,a7=a13,然后那,稍微数数,就能够知道a150=a6了,同样计算得1/3.2：问摄氏升高30度华氏升高的度数与62比大小.key：F=30*9/5=54Myanswer：加起来=695：24，36，90，100四个数中,该数除以它的所有的质因子，最后的结果是质数的是那个：Key：906：0.123456789101112….，这个小数无限不循环地把所有整数都列出来.请问小数点后第100位的数字是多少?Key：位数0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1010 11 12 ………………………19 2020 21……………………………29 2030……………………………… 39 2040……………………………… 49 2050 51 52 53 54 55 56 ――――――第101位 =5??7：2904x=y2(y的平方)，x、y都是正整数，求x的最小值。

A 推动""超越;B 所指事物""认出，辨认;C 力量""承认;D 启发，灵感""通过模仿竞争;E 渠道""模仿。
E 选项为准确答案。
翻译：一旦小鸭子确认了其父母，本能的纽带就成为进一步学习的强有力的渠道，因为通过模仿父母，小鸭子能获得更多的不是由遗传得到的信息。

2019年GRE考试精选填空模拟试题及答案解析(13)
2019年GRE考试精选填空模拟试题及答案解析(13)Professional photographers generally regard inadvertent surrealism in a photograph as a curse rather than a blessing; magazine photographers, in particular, consider themselves fortunate if they can ___ its presence in their photographs.A enhanceB eliminateC demonstrateD minimizeE highlightF emphasize选BD翻译：专业摄影师一般把照片中意外出现的超自然图像视为一种诅咒而非幸运，特别是杂志摄影师，如果他们能避免出现这种照片，就太好了。
eliminate 消除，清除，干掉(某人)，淘汰demonstrate 论证，表明，演示，示范，用行动表达(态度等)highlight 强调，使显得重要，使高亮，聚强光于inadvertent 漫不经心的，非故意的surrealism 超现实主义：20世纪的文学和艺术运动，它试图表达潜意识的活动，以怪诞的意象和主题的不协调并存为特征inadvertent漫不经心的，疏忽的，非刻意的。
inadvertent surrealism指并非主观刻意追求的超现实主义，比如照片里拍出来一只多余的手、脸、UFO，不是刻意要追求这种效果，但是很诡异地出现了超自然构图。
专业摄影师对这种鬼神照片的态度是a curse rather than a blessing;in particular能够理解成specifically特别是怎样，也能够认为有递进的语气，仅仅跟解题关系不大;如果怎样就认为自己是幸运的。
2019年新GRE填空练习题详解(1)
2019年新GRE填空练习题详解(1)Human senses are designed to --------- specific stimuli, and after a focus is achieved, other sensory data is ---------.(A) look for ... heightened(B) respond to ... insulated(C) concentrate on ... discounted(D) favor ... added up(E) create ... born〖解答〗先处理空格Ⅰ。
第一句与第二句之间以and连接，第二句的after 一词更表明第二句即是在复述第一句中人类感官是如何对外部刺激“a achieve a focus”的，故可将 focus 以一动词形式(加接一适当的介词on)移入空格Ⅰ，则求得(C)concentrate on为准确。
(B) respond to相对来说有一点儿的关联，但不及(C)来得具体有针对性。
空格Ⅱ：作为动词，它与focus，同时也与concentrate on，构成反义词。
既然注意力已全部汇集于某些特定的刺激或感觉数据，则其它的感觉数据便不再获到注意力的全神贯注，故求得(C)discounted(不信，漠视，不予考虑)。
准确答案为(C)。
〖词汇〗specific ： 1.明确的，具体的，确切的 2.特有的，特定的，独特的stimulus ：刺激(物)，激励(物)，促动(因素) [stimuli为复数]respond(to)：1.作答，回答 2.作出反应，响应insulate： 1.隔离，使隔绝 2.使绝缘，隔热，隔音〖中译〗人类的诸般感官旨在聚精会神贯注于明确具体的刺激物;一旦注意力之凝聚得以形成，其余的感官数据悉予忽略不计。
Do not be --------- by that fiery formula which springs from the lips of so many --------- old gentleman： "I shall write to the Times about this outrage!"(A) dissuaded ... indefatigable(B) daunted ... irresolute(C) intimidated ... choleric(D) discredited ... crotchety(E) exasperated ... apathetic〖解答〗先处理空格Ⅱ。
2019年8月17日GRE填空真题回忆
2019年8月17日GRE填空真题回忆根据同学回忆，分享两个题目。
1. While the evils of extreme income inequality shouldnot be sensationalized, evidence shows that the effects of inequality on the political and economic fabric of societyare indeed often __________.A. vindictiveB. perniciousC. illicitD. unpredictableE. salutary【答案】B (很有害的;恶性的)【解析】while提示前后转折，前半部分对极端收入不平衡的罪恶(the evils of extreme income inequality)是非负评价(shouldnot be sensationalized)，while转折，后面应该是负评价，所以空格处对evil取同即可。
【翻译】虽然我们不应该夸大(sensationalize 以耸人听闻的方式处理)极端收入不平衡的罪恶(坏处)，但有证据表明，收入不平衡对政治和经济结构的影响确实是【坏的，有害的】。
【解词】A选项，vindictive “怀有或显示报复心的”，源自vindicate (v.澄清，证明，词根vin-=win; dict-=speak,说，即通过说话战胜对方，即“证明，澄清”)。
这两个词看起来意思差很多，其实是同源的。
vindictive的原始含义是：提供证据来反驳指责(类似vindicate)，后引申为“报复，复仇”。
D选项，pernicious 有害的，恶劣的。
per-=through，贯穿，完全;nic-=noc-=hurt, poison,伤害，毒。
所以表示“有害的”。
【注】这个题是新题。
2. Tompkinson's prior donations to the university, while very generous, failed to the magnitude of her latest gift.A. compensate forB. portendC. clarifyD. predictE. offsetF. undermine【答案】BD【解析】同主体让步转折，能够方向取反，能够水准递进。

2019年GRE考试填空练习试题及答案解析13
43、 The corporation expects only _________ increases in sales next year despite a yearlong effort to revive its retailing business.
(A) unquestionable
(B) sequential
(C) modest
(D) exaggerated
(E) groundless
分析：空格填入一个形容词，修饰"销售增长(increases in sales)"，并且这是公司所"期待(expects)"的。
despite 表达让步转折，所以空格要体现和"一年的努力来让零售业务复苏(a yearlong effort to revive itsretailing business)"不相匹配的结果。
A 毫无疑问的;B 连续的;C 适当的，有限的;D 夸张的;E 无理由的。
C 选项准确。
翻译：即使用了一年的努力来让自己的零售业务复苏，但是这个公司仅仅期待明年在销售上能获得一定的增长。
44、 The eradication of pollution is not merely a matter of ______, though the majestic beauty of nature is indeed an important consideration.
(A) economics
(B) legislation
(C) cleanliness
(D) aesthetics
(E) restoration
分析：空格填入一个名词，表示对"根除污染(The eradication
of pollution)"的描述;though 表达让步转折，not 表示否定，所以
空格应该体现和"大自然壮丽的美景(the majestic beauty of nature)"相同的含义。
A 经济学;B 立法，法律;C 清洁;D 美学;E 恢复。
D 选项准确。
翻译：即使大自然壮丽的美景的的确确是应该重视的问题，但是
污染的根除却不但仅是一个美学问题。
扩展：本题能够扩展到环境保护涉及到的相关问题，比如公共政策，环境对人类的影响等。
45、 For more than a century, geologists have felt comfortable with the idea that geological processes, although very_________, are also _________ and so are capable of shaping the Earth, given enough time.
(A) minute...sporadic
(B) slow...steady
(C) complex...discernible
(D) unpredictable...constant
(E) ponderous...intermittent
分析：本题构成了"A and B 模式"。
空格 1 应该填入一个形容词，修饰"地质作用(geological processes)"，although 表示让步转折，所以空格 1 至少体现和"能够构造地球(capable of shaping the Earth)"相反的语义，即一个负评价词。
A 微小的""时有时无的，零星的;B 缓慢的""稳定的;C 复杂的""可辨别的;D 不可预测的""不变的;E 沉重的，笨重的""间歇的。
ABC 都能够候选。
空格 2 填入一个形容词，也是修饰"地质作用"，所以空格 2 应该体现和空格 1 相反而不矛盾，。
