GRE 閱讀速度如何穩中求勝 GRE 閱讀速度如何穩中求勝?這些控制和提速技巧值得一看,下面小編就和大家分享，來(lái)欣賞一下吧。
GRE 閱讀速度如何穩中求勝?這些控制和提速技巧值得一看 GRE 閱讀控速提速方法：詞匯基礎打扎實(shí) 做 GRE 閱讀時(shí)，并不需要認識文章里的所有單詞。如果章中一些名詞不認識，可以去猜，練習猜詞的能力，畢竟考試中肯定會(huì )有詞不認識，要根據上下文推測下。
但是，如果是一些重要的形容詞，名詞，動(dòng)詞，那么還是要熟悉才行。因為這些詞反映了作者的態(tài)度和文章轉折等結構，所以要做到對這些詞熟練認識，形成條件反射，一看到就能反應出詞義。
建議可以去背下閱讀類(lèi)單詞表，平時(shí)做閱讀時(shí)對于重要的可以推理作者態(tài)度的詞也總結背下來(lái)。
GRE 閱讀控速提速方法：每天練習長(cháng)難句 建議各位考生保持每天都練習一下長(cháng)難句，以不看答案，自己分析為標準。每看完一句長(cháng)難句，都做一下相關(guān)訓練，對提高閱讀速度非常有幫助?？撮L(cháng)難句最好每天都花一個(gè)小時(shí)，看的時(shí)候逐漸增加閱讀速度。
GRE 閱讀控速提速方法：速度訓練 很多教材都介紹了很多閱讀把握邏輯框架的技巧，比如 not only 后的跳過(guò)，but also 后的重點(diǎn)讀，however 后的要重點(diǎn)度之類(lèi)的。建議大家不能盲目記這些技巧，最好親手總結適合自己的方法，畢竟很多時(shí)候 gre 細節題考的都是一些要”跳過(guò)的“插入語(yǔ)，或者 for example 之后的內容。如果讀的時(shí)候直接跳過(guò)了，就會(huì )有問(wèn)題。比如一篇反駁老觀(guān)點(diǎn)的閱讀，看到第一個(gè)詞 many people，就可以?huà)哌^(guò)這句找 however，因為 however 肯定是指出他的不足和他對比，通過(guò)however 的觀(guān)點(diǎn)，腦子里就可以推出 many people 的觀(guān)點(diǎn)，這樣就可以略過(guò)不少內容。同時(shí)，一定要邊讀邊動(dòng)腦子，而不是盲目吸收信息。大家都知道新 gre 是邏輯考試，不是簡(jiǎn)答的語(yǔ)言考試，不要用做中學(xué)英語(yǔ)閱讀的那套。如果閱讀中遇到讀不懂的長(cháng)難句，就仔細破解，找主謂賓，靜下心來(lái)破解。這樣把握了結構做題的時(shí)候，遇到主旨題，細節題，作者態(tài)度題就可以直接解決，不用回頭看文章，然后遇到細節題，回去快速定位找下，畢竟文章理解了，定位會(huì )很快。
GRE 閱讀控速提速方法：卡時(shí)間訓練 可以從每篇文章 6 分鐘，5 分鐘，4 分鐘等逐漸減少時(shí)間的方法根據個(gè)人情況一步步訓練。根據每篇文章分配的時(shí)間，來(lái)有取舍的讀，每篇短閱讀 2 分鐘讀完，能讀多少是多少，但是要把整體文章讀完。還要求宏觀(guān)讀全文，文章把握住邏輯結構和觀(guān)點(diǎn)即可，細節不要太深究，加快節奏。
以上就是 GRE 閱讀控制解題速度和提速方法的介紹，希望大家都能在 GRE 閱讀考試中把握好考試時(shí)間，順利取得滿(mǎn)意的成績(jì)。
GRE 閱讀題目解析:生物多樣性與島嶼面積 P27 MacArthur and Wilson suggested that the biodiversity of an island will vary in direct proportion to a function of the island’s size (i.e., larger islands can support a greater number of species) and in inverse proportion to a function of its distance from the mainland (i.e., many remote islands will tend to support fewer species). Reduced biodiversity in an island context is likely to require significant adaptation on the part of colonizing human populations. Evans argues that this limitation makes islands ideal laboratories for the study of human adaptations to the natural environment, whilst Renfrew and Wagstaff, in the introduction to their study of Melos, focus on this limitation in biodiversity as a “significant characteristic of the island ecosystem.” For human communities, however, this limitation may potentially be offset by other factors. The reduced biodiversity of an island ecosystem applies only to terrestrial resources: the resources of the sea will be as rich as on any other coastal area, and may be equally important to human communities. A small island such as Malta or Melos allows all communities direct access to the sea, providing an important nutritional “safety net,” as well as an element of dietary diversity, which may actually give island communities an advantage over their landlocked counterparts. Islands may also have specific nonbiological resources (such as obsidian on Melos), which may be used in exchange with communities on other islands and adjacent mainlands.
1. The primary purpose of the passage is to A. evaluate two contrasting approaches to island biodiversity B. discuss the relevance of certain data pertaining to island biodiversity C. call into question a particular understanding of island biodiversity D. consider various reasons for reduced biodiversity on islands E. contrast large and small islands in terms of overall biodiversity Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply. 2. According to the author, factors of potential importance to human communities on islands include A. the accessibility of the sea’s resources B. a diet superior in some respects to the diet of landlocked communities C. nonbiological resources that can be exploited 3. The author suggests that in considering the biodiversity of islands, Evans A. focuses too exclusively on terrestrial resources B. misunderstands the relationship between an island’s size and its terrestrial resources C. misinterprets the work of MacArthur and Wilson D. is wrong to assume that more remote islands support fewer species E. downplays the ways that human communities adapt to island biodiversity P27 1 MacArthur and Wilson suggested that the biodiversity of an island will vary in direct proportion to a function of the island’s size (i.e., larger islands can support a greater number of species) and in inverse proportion to a
function of its distance from the mainland (i.e., many remote islands will tend to support fewer species). M 和 W 認為，島上的生物多樣性與島的面積成正比(即更大的島能承載更多的物種)，且與島至大陸的距離成反比(即很多偏遠的島嶼物種更少)。

3 Evans argues that this limitation makes islands ideal laboratories for the study of human adaptations to the natural environment, whilst Renfrew and Wagstaff, in the introduction to their study of Melos, focus on this limitation in biodiversity as a “significant characteristic of the island ecosystem.” E 指出，這種限制令島嶼成為研究人類(lèi)適應自然環(huán)境的理想實(shí)驗室，而 R 和 Ws 在他們關(guān)于米洛斯島的研究的引言中，把這種生物多樣性的限制稱(chēng)為 “ 島嶼生態(tài)系統的重要特點(diǎn) ” 。

Malta An island country in the Mediterranean Sea south of Sicily, comprising the island of Malta and two smaller islands. Occupied successively by Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Saracens, and Normans, Malta was granted to the Knights Hospitalers in 1530 and passed to France in 1798 and Great Britain in 1800.

Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply. 2. According to the author, factors of potential importance to human communities on islands include A. the accessibility of the sea’s resources B. a diet superior in some respects to the diet of landlocked communities C. nonbiological resources that can be exploited 選 ABC 根據句 6、7：
A small island such as Malta or Melos allows all communities direct access to the sea, providing an important nutritional “safety net,” as well as an element of dietary diversity, which may actually give island communities an advantage over their landlocked counterparts. Islands may also have specific nonbiological resources(such as obsidian on Melos), which may be used in exchange with communities on other islands and adjacent mainlands. 盡量做對這種題，因為沒(méi)有更簡(jiǎn)單的了。
3. The author suggests that in considering the biodiversity of islands, Evans A. focuses too exclusively on terrestrial resources B. misunderstands the relationship between an island’s size and its terrestrial resources C. misinterprets the work of MacArthur and Wilson D. is wrong to assume that more remote islands support fewer species E. downplays the ways that human communities adapt to island biodiversity 選 A 比較繞的一題。
首先你要意識到，作者通篇的目的，是為了反駁句 2 的觀(guān)點(diǎn)：
Reduced biodiversity in an island context is likely torequire significant adaptation on the part of colonizing human populations. is likely to 如何如何(實(shí)際情況未必是這樣)。
問(wèn)題是，關(guān)于 Evans 通篇只有一句話(huà)：Evans argues that this limitation makes islands ideal laboratories for the study of human adaptations to the natural environment „ 實(shí)在看不出作者反對他什么。
不妨換個(gè)方向思考。
既然作者反對句 2，Evans 支持句 2，那么作者如何反駁了句 2，可能就是作者對 Evans 的態(tài)度，直到我們在句 5 得到重要提示：
The reduced biodiversity of an island ecosystem applies only to terrestrial resources : the resources of the sea will be as rich as on any other coastal area, and may be equally important to human communities. 既然 Evans 認為 reduced biodiversity 那么重要，以致到了考驗島民適應能力的程度，那么我們有理由懷疑，作者認為 Evans 過(guò)于強調，或只強調 terrestrial resources 了，沒(méi)有看到海洋資源的因素。
所以選 A 。
GRE 閱讀題目解析:地震斷層 P26 Most seismologists assume that following a major earthquake and its aftershocks, the fault (a break in Earth’s crust where pressure can trigger an earthquake) will remain quiet until stresses have time to rebuild, typically over hundreds or thousands of years. Recent evidence of subtle interactions between earthquakes may overturn this assumption, however. According to the stress triggering hypothesis, faults are unexpectedly responsive to subtle stresses they acquire as neighboring faults shift. Rather than simply dissipating, stress relieved during an earthquake travels along the fault, concentrating in sites nearby; even the smallest additional stresses may then trigger another quake along the fault or on a nearby fault. Although scientists
have long viewed such subtle interactions as nonexistent, the hypothesis has explained the location and frequency of earthquakes following several destructive quakes in California, Japan, and Turkey. 1. According to the passage, which of the following is an assumption that may be invalidated by recent seismological evidence? A. Earthquakes are caused by stresses building up in faults within Earth’s crust. B. Most major earthquakes can be predicted with reasonable accuracy. C. Faults are highly responsive to even minor stresses in neighboring faults. D. Most major earthquakes are followed by predictable aftershocks. E. A fault that has resulted in a major earthquake becomes quiet for a long period. For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply. 2. The passage suggests that most seismologists believe which of the following about fault stresses? A. They are dissipated when they result in an earthquake. B. They are transferred between neighboring faults. C. They will not cause a major earthquake along the same fault in the space of a few years. P26 1 Most seismologists【sīz-"m?-l?-jist, sīs】
assume that following a major earthquake and its aftershocks, the fault (a break in Earth’s crust where pressure can trigger an earthquake) will remain quiet until stresses have time to rebuild, typically over hundreds or thousands of years. 多數地震學(xué)家假設，一次大地震及其余震過(guò)后，斷層(地殼的一處斷裂，擠壓可能引發(fā)地震)會(huì )沉寂一段時(shí)間，直到壓力隨時(shí)間重新積累，往往要經(jīng)過(guò)成百上千年。
2 Recent evidence of subtle interactions between earthquakes may overturn this assumption, however. 然而最近發(fā)現的一些，地震之間存在細微互動(dòng)的證據，可能推翻這種假設。
3 According to the stress triggering hypothesis, faults are unexpectedly responsive to subtle stresses they acquire as neighboring faults shift. 根據壓力觸發(fā)假設，斷層不該對附近斷層移動(dòng)所產(chǎn)生的細微壓力有反應。
4 Rather than simply dissipating, stress relieved during an earthquake travels along the fault, concentrating in sites nearby; even the smallest additional stresses may then trigger another quake along the fault or on a nearby fault. 一次地震釋放出的壓力并不簡(jiǎn)單地消散，而是沿斷層傳遞，集聚在附近某處;即使是最小的外加壓力，都可能觸發(fā)斷層沿線(xiàn)或附近其他斷層的再次地震。
5 Although scientists have long viewed such subtle interactions as nonexistent, the hypothesis has explained the location and frequency of earthquakes following several destructive quakes in California, Japan, and Turkey. 盡管科學(xué)家們一直認為不存在這種小互動(dòng)，但這種假設解釋了發(fā)生在加州，日本和土耳其的，一系列緊跟著(zhù)破壞性大地震的，地震的地點(diǎn)和頻率。
1. According to the passage, which of the following is an assumption that may be invalidated by recent seismological evidence? A. Earthquakes are caused by stresses building up in faults within Earth’s crust. B. Most major earthquakes can be predicted with reasonable accuracy. C. Faults are highly responsive to even minor stresses in neighboring faults.
D. Most major earthquakes are followed by predictable aftershocks. E. A fault that has resulted in a major earthquakebecomes quiet for a long period. 選 E 細節題，根據在句 1：
Most seismologists assume that following a major earthquake and its aftershocks, the fault (a break in Earth’s crust where pressure can trigger an earthquake)will remain quiet until stresses have time to rebuild, typically over hundreds or thousands of years. 句 2 說(shuō)這種假設被挑戰了：
Recent evidence of subtle interactions between earthquakes may overturn this assumption, however. For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply. 2. The passage suggests that most seismologists believe which of the following about fault stresses? A. They are dissipated when they result in an earthquake. B. They are transferred between neighboring faults. C. They will not cause a major earthquake along the same fault in the space of a few years. 選 AC 另一道細節題。
most seismologists 持哪種觀(guān)點(diǎn)? 根據第一句，他們同意作者攻擊的那種觀(guān)點(diǎn)，即認為斷層經(jīng)過(guò)一次地震后，要安靜一段時(shí)間，等積蓄了足夠力量才會(huì )再次爆發(fā)。
所以選 AC。
B 屬于作者支持的新假設，即壓力仍潛伏在斷層沿線(xiàn)或周?chē)?，稍有風(fēng)吹草動(dòng)它們要觸發(fā)另一次地震，所以不選。
GRE 閱讀題目解析:太陽(yáng)更熱更大的恒星 P25 Hotter and more massive than the Sun, stars called “stragglers” are puzzling to astronomers because such rapidly burning stars would not be expected to persist in ancient star clusters. Some researchers believe that the typical blue stragglers formed when two ancient, lower-mass stars collide and merge form more massive, hotter star. Peter Leonard theorizes alternatively that in low density globular clusters, where mergers between single stars occur too infrequently to account for the observed quantity of blue stragglers, these stragglers are created instead by a group of stars. He suggests that a pair of stars already orbiting each other presents a larger target for a third star or another pair. Once this new grouping forms, close encounters between the stars could prompt any two to merge as a blue straggler. Leonard’s model predicts that each blue straggler has a distant orbiting companion—as appears true of many blue stragglers in the M67 cluster of the Milky Way galaxy. 1. The reference to a “larger target” serves primarily to suggest why a A. blue straggler would be more likely to collide and merge with another star than would be a lower-mass star B. pair of stars would be more likely to encounter other stars than would the typical blue straggler C. pair of stars would be more likely to interact with other stars than would a single star D. blue straggler would be more likely to interact with a pair of stars than it would with a third star E. third star would be more likely to encounter a pair than it would to encounter a blue straggler 2. Information presented in the passage suggests which of the following about blue stragglers?
A. They originate from stars that are hotter and more massive than the Sun. B. They are burning more rapidly than other types of stars observed in ancient star clusters. C. They are older than most other types of stars within the same star cluster. D. They are less numerous in low-density globular clusters than are pairs of stars. E. They generally originate from the oldest stars among those found in ancient star clusters. 3. The passage cites which of the following as evidence undermining the theory presented in the second sentence? A. A discrepancy between the number of mergers between single stars in certain low-density globular clusters and that in other low-density globular clusters B. A discrepancy between the heat and mass of blue stragglers formed by one type of process and the heat and mass of blue stragglers formed by another type of process C. A discrepancy between the frequency of star mergers in low-density globular clusters and those in high-density globular clusters D. A discrepancy between the amount of heat and mass of ancient single stars and that of blue stragglers E. A discrepancy between the number of mergers between single stars in certain star clusters and the number of blue stragglers in those clusters P25 1 Hotter and more massive than the Sun, stars called “stragglers” are puzzling to astronomers because such rapidly burning stars would not be expected to persist in ancient star clusters.
比太陽(yáng)更熱也更大的恒星，稱(chēng)為 “ straggler ”，它們令天文學(xué)家迷惑，因為燃燒得如此快速的恒星，不該一直存在于古老的星團中。
(straggler 本義是掉隊的人，落后的人，別人都走了他還呆在原地的人，中文語(yǔ)境基本把指恒星的 straggler 翻譯成 超藍巨星 。) 2 Some researchers believe that the typical blue stragglers formed when two ancient, lower-mass stars collide and merge form more massive, hotter star. 一些研究者相信，典型的超藍巨星，由兩顆古老的，質(zhì)量較低的恒星相撞結合而成，質(zhì)量更大，更熱。
3 Peter Leonard theorizes alternatively that in low density globular clusters, where mergers between single stars occur too infrequently to account for the observed quantity of blue stragglers, these stragglers are created instead by a group of stars. P L 提出另一種理論，即在低密度球狀星團中，單獨的恒星聯(lián)合太罕見(jiàn)了，無(wú)法解釋已經(jīng)觀(guān)測到的如此多的超藍巨星，這些超藍巨星是一群恒星產(chǎn)生的。
4 He suggests that a pair of stars already orbiting each other presents a larger target for a third star or another pair. 他認為，一對已經(jīng)互相吸引彼此環(huán)繞的恒星，對于第三顆恒星或另一對互繞的恒星，是更大的目標。
5 Once this new grouping forms, close encounters between the stars could prompt any two to merge as a blue straggler. 一旦形成新的編組，恒星間的近距離接觸，可能促使任何兩顆恒星結合成一顆超藍巨星。
6 Leonard’s model predicts that each blue straggler has a distant orbiting companion — as appears true of many blue stragglers in the M67 cluster of the Milky Way galaxy.
L 的模型預測，每顆超藍巨星都有一個(gè)遠距離按軌道環(huán)繞的同伴 —— 銀河系 M67 星團，似乎的確有很多這樣的超藍巨星。

Hotter and more massive than the Sun, stars called “stragglers” are puzzling to astronomers because such rapidly burning stars would not be expected to persist in ancient star clusters. 同義轉述。
A 錯。hotter and more massive 說(shuō)的是 blue straggler 而不是形成 blue straggler 的恒星們。

A discrepancy between the frequency of star mergers in low-density globular clusters and those in high-density globular clusters D. A discrepancy between the amount of heat and mass of ancient single stars and that of blue stragglers E. A discrepancy between the number of mergers between single stars in certain star clusters and the number of blue stragglers in those clusters 選 E 先看句 2 提出了什么理論：
Some researchers believe that the typical blue stragglers formed when two ancient, lower-mass stars collide and merge form more massive, hotter star. 然后作者在句 3 中提到：
Peter Leonard theorizes alternatively that in low density globular clusters, where mergers between single stars occur too infrequently to account for the observed quantity of blue stragglers, these stragglers are created instead by a group of stars. 綜合兩句，選 E。
