為(wèi)什么學(xué)习了高频的取同取反逻辑,背了大量单词,还是做不对题?这可(kě)能(néng)是很(hěn)多(duō)备考GRE填空同學(xué)心中的疑问。其实,逻辑和单词只是GRE填空的基本操作,我们还需要注意到一些微观维度的匹配,有(yǒu)意识地深入我们的思考,分(fēn)析,与推理(lǐ),今天,我们就来讲解一下,常常被同學(xué)们忽略的做题维度-----时态。
首先,我们先来看一到经典例题:
Scientist reported last month on a sign of relative solar _____; the solar wind, a rush of
charged particles continually spewed from the Sun at a million miles an hour, had diminished to its lowest level in 50 years.
A. quiescence
B. turbulence
C. isolation
D. calm
E. remoteness
F. Instability
这道六选二题,首先,同學(xué)们根据我们的基本解题原则,找到相对完整的一个参考信息:had diminished to its lowest level in 50 years,其次,分(fēn)析逻辑关系,我们根据标点符号分(fēn)号“;”可(kě)以得出,空格应和参考信息取同。这个时候,很(hěn)多(duō)同學(xué)就会想选BF, turbulence 狂暴,动荡,F 不稳定,波动,对应diminish. 但是,这样选恰恰落入了ETS的陷阱,请注意参考信息的时态:had diminished 过去完成时态,说明solar wind 逐渐减少到zui小(xiǎo)值是在近50年里的長(cháng)期完成状态,而不是短期波动,所以,这道题,选择AD。
接下来,我们再来看一道刁钻题目:
The museum’s compelling new architectural exhibition looks at eleven projects around the world
that have had major (i)_____ impacts despite modest budgets. It is part of (ii)_____ in the
museum’s architecture and design department, which in the past has championed architecture’s
artistic value over its real-world consequences.
A. social D. an emphasis on theory
B. aesthetic E. a shift in philosophy
C. critical F. a rejection of pragmatism
我们一起来看这道双空,首先,先根据我们多(duō)空题突破口原则,提取到参考信息:in the past has championed architecture’s artistic value over its real-world consequences.,得知在过去artistic value 大于real-world, 根据时态have championed 说明现在发生了改变,直接对应二空选项E,a shift in philosophy; 那么,一空反映的是现在的状态,与过去发生的完成时态构成时间对比逻辑关系,取反,说明现在museum重视real-world, 对应选项A social
