下面是出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)小編為大家整理的2017年5月GRE考試預(yù)測試題及答案，歡迎大家閱讀。
1. Blake’s reputation for weakness is _____: almost all who have worked with him say he is a disciplined, intellectually formidable, and very tough politician.
A. specious
B. pervasive
C. irreversible
D. trivial
E. ambivalent
參考答案：A
題目解析：A:B前后構(gòu)成同義解釋關(guān)系，后面說Blake講原則，令人敬畏，所以前面部分填入表示weakness是“不存在”類別詞匯。
2. Retrofitted with stabilizing devices, some of which _____ its aesthetics, the bridge has been reopened, no longer prone to excessive swaying but not quite the breathtaking structure it originally was.
A. impair
B. resist
C. improve
D. enhance
E. restore
F. compromise
參考答案：A F
題目解析：這座橋用了一些穩(wěn)固裝置進行翻新以后，其中一些(some of which)【破壞】了它的美觀，這個橋重新開放以后，不再會傾向于(prone to)像以前那樣過分的搖晃了，但是也沒了原本會令人驚訝嘆服的外觀結(jié)構(gòu)。所以根據(jù)最后no longer... but not 判斷橋更穩(wěn)固但是犧牲了美觀，因此前面應(yīng)該是負評價，答案為AF損壞。resist 對抗，抵制;improve 提高，改進; enhance 提高，增加; restore 修復(fù)。
3. Mr. Hirsch says he will aim to preserve the foundation’s support of _____ thinkers, individuals who are going against the trends in a field or an acknowledged set of opinions.
A. iconoclastic
B. integrative
C. doctrinaire
D. heterodox
E. dogmatic
F. synthesizing
參考答案：A D
題目解析：應(yīng)當選擇的詞匯是表達反對意見,跟后面的against相呼應(yīng)的詞匯。首先這個句子個結(jié)構(gòu)簡單，所以要找到里面的對等部分，要么是同義要么是反義，這句里沒有強烈反義詞匯，所以基本直接斷定同義。再看句子就知道找和against the trends in a field or an acknowledged set of opinions 同義的詞匯，所以就是heterodox和iconoclastic。
4. In France cultural subsidies are _____: producers of just about any film can get an advance from the government against box-office receipts, even though most such loans are never fully repaid.
A. ubiquitous
B. invaluable
C. sporadic
D. scanty
E. questionable
F. omnipresent
參考答案：A F
題目解析：本題題眼應(yīng)該是get an advance from the government，所以對于subsidies的態(tài)度應(yīng)該是正向的，選項中只有AF有正向含義。Even though后的負評價有一定的干擾性但是題目中用fully弱化了這一負評價，而且even though句子的重點本來就不在even though后面是另一句話，也就是producers of just about any film can get an advance 這里，尤其是這里的any，已經(jīng)很明顯的暗示了AF。
5. With the rate of technological (i) _____ accelerating—many people now consider a personal computer (ii) _____ after three years—the question of how to properly dispose of old equipment is no small matter.
Blank (i) Blank (ii)
A. affordability D. outdated
B. complexity E. familiar
C. obsolescence F. inestimable
參考答案：C D
題目解析：這題的意思是當科技過時加速時候，現(xiàn)在很多人都覺得電腦用三年就過時了----對于如何處置舊的裝置已經(jīng)不是個小問題了。破折號是進一步解釋前面的意思。題目意思看懂了后就能很快選出2個相近的意思的選項，即是CD.
6. It may be that a kind of pendulum is built into United States politics: if a particular interest group scores a major victory, its supporters (i) _____ and its adversaries (ii) _____ their efforts, so that the victory is soon (iii) _____ .
Blank (i) Blank (ii) Blank (iii)
A. consider new possibilities D. abandon G. reversed
B. grow complacent E. redouble H. augmented
C. become even more focused F. defend I. institutionalized
參考答案：B E G
題目解析：Pendulum=n. 鐘擺;搖錘;搖擺不定的事態(tài)
blank 1：supporter的xx做法或是狀態(tài)會對particular interest group起到一個負方向的作用，所以grow complacent
blank 2：adversaries競爭對手的xx做法或是狀態(tài)會對自己產(chǎn)生正方向的作用，所以只有redouble加倍努力
blank 3：那么particular interest group的勝利victory就會失敗，就是負方向的作用，所以reversed推翻, 取消，使倒退, 逆轉(zhuǎn)
