GRE填空题句式太复杂怎么解答?2个方法看懂题干迅速找到解题线索

1. 简化句子

根据构造的成分,句子可以分成主干和修饰成分。主干是一个完整的主谓结构,而修饰成分可能是从句,定语或者状语。为了准确快速地理解句子的意义,你必须分析句子的结构。

但有时你并不需要掌握句子的确切意义,因为有些句子逻辑关系极为明显,你只需通过这些揭示逻辑关系的过渡词或者语气词和理解其中的关键词就可以解题。所以,很多时候你并不需要真正的掌握句意,你只需将不可能包含过渡词和关键词的修饰成分略掉,这样可以帮助你快速找到正确答案。

2. 关注过渡词与关键词

特别留意那些决定句子结构的过渡词,这些过渡词经常是连词,有时也会是语气态度词。通过它,你可以确定句子的组织形式(并列,或者转折),选择与之相匹配的词。

关键词是指那些决定句子内涵,正负态度和贬褒意义的词汇。一旦你识别了这些关键词,再由句子的构造的逻辑关系,空格的内容就显而易见。这里,最重要的是你对过渡词和关键词的敏感性。

新GRE填空练习题+详解

The cultivation of the emotion of natsulcashii, interpretable as pleasant

sorrow , brings Japanese to Kyoto in the spring, not to --------- the cherry blossoms in full bloom but to --------- the fading, falling flowers.

(A) mourn ... exclaim

(B) honor ... protect

(C) describe ... rejoice over

(D) arrange ... preserve

(E) savor ... grieve over

〖解答〗

本题两处空格均为动词,从not to...but to...可判定应是反义词关系,且可以从pleasant

sorrow中得到补足。将pleasant和sorrow 作词性的转换(均变成动词),分别代入空格Ⅰ和Ⅱ,求得(E)为正确答案。

〖中译〗

Natsulcashii这一情愫--可将其理解为“令人愉悦的悲伤”--的培养,在春天的季节将日本人引至京都,并非为了欣赏盛开的樱花,而是要对凋零的落英黯然神伤。

Kagan maintains that an infant’s reactions to its first stressful experiences are part of a natural process of development, not harbingers of

childhood unhappiness or --------- signs of adolescent anxiety.

(A) prophetic

(B) normal

(C) monotonous

(D) virtual

(E) typical

〖解答〗

以harbinger一词为线索。该词意为“前兆,预示”,从中提取“预先的”这一形容词概念填入空格,即求得(A)为正确答案。

〖中译〗

卡冈坚持认为,婴儿对其最初压抑的体验所作出的反应是其自然成长过程的一部分,并非是童年不幸福的前兆或青少年焦虑的预先迹象。

Demonstrating a mastery of innuendo, he issued several ---------- insults

in the course of the evenings conversation.

(A) blunt

(B) boisterous

(C) fallacious

(D) veiled

(E) embellished

〖解答〗

所谓innuendo,即“影射,暗讽”之意。可从中分解出“隐约的,

暗中的”的含义,代入空格,便求得(D) veiled为正确答案。

〖词汇〗

blunt: 1.钝的,迟钝的2.率直的

boisterous: 喧闹的,粗鲁的

fallacious: 谬误的,虚妄的

embellished: 美化的,装饰一新的,(文章)润饰的

〖中译〗

在晚会的交谈中,他说出多句隐隐约约的侮辱之辞,展示出一种含沙射影的本领。

将某一短语或词汇进行意义上的拆解,从中提取一潜在固有的线索,然后转换成空格所需词汇的特定词性,即可求得答案。

例Ⅰ:

Consider the universal cannibalism of the sea, all of whose creatures ---------- one another.

(A) hide from

(B) ferret out

(C) prey on

(D) glide among

(E) compete against

〖解答〗

Cannibalism意为“同类相食”,由此名词中提取一个隐约与动作相关的“食”字代入空格,则求得(C) prey on。

ferret out: 搜出,查获

glide: 滑行,游动

〖中译〗

不妨考虑一下海洋中普遍存在的同类相食,其中所有的生物体相互间均以对方为捕食对象。

例Ⅱ:

Charlotte Salomons biography is a reminder that currents of private life,

however diverted, dislodged, or twisted by ---------- public events, retain their hold on the ---------- recording them.

(A) transitory ... culture

(B) dramatic ... majority

(C) overpowering ... individual

(D) conventional ... audience

(E) relentless ... institution

〖解答〗

空格Ⅱ:既然这里所涉及到的是传记(biography),而顾名思义,传记的定义是an account of a persons life,

故将其生平事件记录下来的必是(C)individual无疑,而不可能是culture, majority,

audience或institution中的任何一个。

夏洛特·萨洛蒙的传记构成一种醒示物,表明个人生活的方向,在何等程度上无论受到强有力的社会事件错综曲折的影响,终究仍会对这位生平事件的记录者保留其制约作用。

例Ⅲ:

Parts of seventeenth-century Chinese pleasure gardens were not necessarily

intended to look ----------; they were designed expressly to evoke the agreeable

melancholy resulting from a sense of the ---------- of natural beauty and human

glory.

(A) beautiful ... immutability

(B) luxuriant ... simplicity

(C) cheerful ... transitoriness

(D) colorful ... abstractness

(E) conventional ... wildness

〖解答〗

空格Ⅰ:截取名词短语pleasure

gardens中的pleasure这一线索,作词性转换后变成pleasant或pleasurable代入,可求得(C)

cheerful为其唯一的同义词。空格Ⅱ需陈述melancholy(伤感)的起因,

这无疑是transitoriness所致。

〖词汇〗

expressly: 特意地,专诚地

immutability: 永恒不定

luxuriant: 茂盛的,富饶的,奢华的

〖中译〗

十七世纪,中国的部分游乐花园并非必定意欲使其予人以愉悦的景象;它们被特意设计出来,旨在唤起某种令人愉快的感伤情调,因为人们意识到,无论是自然界之秀美或是人类之荣耀,都乃一现的昙花,片刻须臾而已。

新GRE填空练习题+详解

1、An essential purpose of the criminal justice system is to enable purgation to take place; that is, to provide a --------- by which a community

expresses its collective --------- the transgression of the criminal.

(A) catharsis ... outrage at

(B) disclaimer ... forgiveness of

(C) means ... empathy with

(D) procedure ... distaste for

(E) document ... disapprobation of

〖解答〗

空格Ⅰ之前的动词不定式to provide...无疑是对此前的那个不定

式结构to enable purgation to take

place的复述。据此,可将第一个不定式中的purgation一词直接移入空格Ⅰ,则求得同义的(A) catharsis为正确答案。

〖词汇〗

catharsis: 渲泄,净化

empathy: 移情,共鸣

disapprobation: 不以为然,非难

〖中译〗

刑事司法制度的根本目的就是要致使犯法者得以被荡涤清除;也就是说,要提供某种净化作用,社会藉以对罪犯的违法行为表示出全民的愤慨。

2、The Gibsons were little given to ---------- in any form; not one of them

was afraid of ----------, of being and seeming unlike their neighbors.

(A) humility ... absurdity

(B) excellence ... mediocrity

(C) anger ... confrontation

(D) conformism ... singularity

(E) ostentation ... eccentricity

〖解答〗

空格Ⅱ后面以of引导的介词结构无疑与该空格前的of结构属同一性质,作补充陈述。从unlike their

neighbours可获取一“与众不同,标新立异”的概念代入空格Ⅱ,则求得(D) singularity和(E)

eccentricity为正确。既然第二句陈述Gibson一家谁都不怕与众不同,这即意味着每人都敢于或愿意表现得与众不同。据此可推知,Gibson 一家所不喜欢的是“与众相同”。正确答案为(D)。

〖词汇〗

be given to: 习惯于…, 喜欢

absurdity: 荒谬

confrontation: 1.正视2. 冲突,对抗

ostentation: 炫耀,夸示

〖中译〗

吉布森一家不喜欢任何形式的墨守成规;他们当中无人惧怕标新立异,要显得与其邻居大异其趣。

F:动词不定式结构

1、An investigation that is ---------- can occasionally yield new facts, even notable ones, but typically the appearance of such facts is the result of a

search in a definite direction.

(A) timely

(B) unguided

(C) consistent

(D) uncomplicated

(E) subjective

〖解答〗

在以but连接的两个句子中分别两次涉及“研究”(investigation search)这一概念。从search后面的介词结构in a

definite direction可求取其反义词(B) unguided。

〖中译〗

一种漫无目的,无的放矢式的研究偶尔能揭示出新的事实,甚至是引人瞩目的事实;但是,普遍而言,此类事实的出现是有着明确方向的探索带来的结果。

2、The state is a network of exchanged benefits and beliefs, --------- between rulers and citizens based on those laws and procedures that are --------- to the maintenance of community.

(A) a compromise ... inimical

(B) an interdependence. .. subsidiary

(C) a counterpoint ... incidental

(D) an equivalence ... prerequisite

(E) a reciprocity ... conducive

〖解答〗

空格Ⅰ需代入一名词,与此前的a network of exchanged benefits在语法上构成同位语,以突出强调“互惠互利”这一概念。(E) reciprocity最好地体现了这一概念。(A) compromise 和(B) interdependence尽管尚能达意,但针对性不强。当然,在空格Ⅱ处,

(A)(B)前后不通,(E) be conducive

to(有利于…)为正确。

〖词汇〗

inimical: 1.敌意的2.有害的,不利的

subsidiary: 附属的,次要的,补贴的

counterpoint: 对位法,对比法

incidental: 伴随的,次要的,偶发的

equivalence: 相等

prerequisite: 先决条件的,必要的

〖中译〗

国家是一个互惠和互信的结构,是统治者与公民之间的一种互利关系,以那些有利于维持一个社会的法律和程序为其基础。

what might be called an actively --------- one, eagerly attentive as it is to sights and sounds.

(A) adaptive

(B) selective

(C) inquisitive

(D) receptive

(E) intuitive

从空格之后表示伴随状况的形容词短语attentive to...”中可求得与其最接近贴切的近义词(D)

receptive。此外,代入的正确选择须与另一形容词passive有关。

〖中译〗

新诞生的人类婴儿既不是个被动的人物,亦不是个主动的人物,而是那样一个可被称为以主动的方式显示出较强接受力的人物,实际上热切地注意着各种情景和声响。

D:同位语短语

that true appreciation of the music is an ---------- process closed to the uninitiated listeners, however enthusiastic.

(A) unreliable

(B) arcane

(C) arrogant

(D) elementary

(E) intuitive

〖解答〗

如果音乐欣赏正是过去分词短语中所描述的那样,是closed to the uninitiated

listeners的话,那全然是因为这一过程已变成(B) arcane的缘故。

cant: 1.言不由衷之辞2.黑话3.行业术语,惯用套语

uninitiated: 1. 未被接纳入会的2.缺乏某种特定知识和经验的

arcane: 神秘的,晦涩难解的

〖中译〗

when it does not support his argument, tailoring it to his needs.

(A) addresses

(B) creates

(C) alters

(D) suppresses

(E) substitutes

〖解答〗

句末的现在分词短语tailoring it to his

needs在复述空格所代表的那一特定的行为动作,it即指代evidence。空格只需从tailoring求取一同义词即可。答案为(C)。

〖词汇〗

tailor: 1.裁制2.针对特定目的(或对象)作修改,使适应特定需要

address: 1.对…发表讲话,称呼2.对付,处理

〖解答〗

An investigation that is _______ canoccasionally yield new facts, even

notable ones, but typically the appearance of such facts is theresult of a search in a definite direction.

(A) timely

(B) unguided

(C) consistent

(D) uncomplicated

(E) subjective

KEY:B

1.关键字:“but”

2.空中应该填入一个形容词,是对于“an investigation”的一种形容;

3.后半句中有but出现,应该是与前半句表达相反的意思,而后半句中的“a search”是前半句中的“an

investigation”的同义替换,因此空中应该填入一个与在后半句中形容

search相反的词语,即“not in a definite

direction”。

4.词语解释

[1].(A) timely:(及时的)appropriate or adapted tothe times or the occasion

[2].(B) unguided:(没有导向的)not to direct, supervise, or influence usually to

aparticular end

has substance, qualities, attributes, orrelations
