 新gre填空增加了雙空空題型,自去年新gre改革以來更加側重基礎能力的考察,新gre填空題型更多的考察單詞的用法和精確含義,同時天空中加深了閱讀理解能力的考察,因此考生在備考新gre填空時大量的閱讀訓練也必不可少。
    (OG Authentic GRE Practice Test Section 4, Q2)
    Some scientists argue that carbon compounds play such a central role in life on Earth because of the possibility of ______ resulting from the carbon atom’s ability to form an unending series of different molecules.
    (A) diversity
    (B) deviation
    (C) variety
    (D) reproduction
    (E) stability
    (F) invigoration
    KEY: AC
    關鍵字:because of、resulting from表示因果關系空格中應填入一個名詞,與前文的possibility of構成“某某的可能性”的搭配。而這個可能性是結果,其原因在resulting from后面引導的部分中有所體現(xiàn),因此依據(jù)因果關系“依因尋果”的做法,看后面有什么原因,結果發(fā)現(xiàn)是因為碳元素能夠形成“unending series of …”,所以說,這里是“多種多樣”的意思。詞語解釋:
    [1].(A) diversity:(多樣性)the condition of being diverse : VARIETY
    [2]. (B) deviation:(背離)departure from an established ideology or party line
    [3].(C) variety:(多樣性)the quality or state of having different forms or types : MULTIFARIOUSNESS
    [4]. (D) reproduction:(復制)something reproduced : COPY
    [5]. (E) stability:(穩(wěn)定)the quality, state, or degree of being stable: as a : the strength to stand or endure : FIRMNESS
    [6]. (F) invigoration:(使……充滿生機)to give life and energy to : ANIMATE
    新gre填空更加注重實際運用語言能力的考察,減少了對單詞純意義的考察,所以備考新gre填空考試的考生可以根據(jù)以上gre官方指南對三空題型的解析進行備考。
