眾所周知大家對GRE、GMAT的閱讀理解,必須使用結(jié)構(gòu)化的巡讀法進(jìn)行,效率高,收效高,因為GRE以及GMAT閱讀理解的規(guī)律性是非常強(qiáng),同時我們閱讀是閱讀其文章的邏輯,因此是用邏輯思維操作邏輯閱讀,但是我們也要知道能做對閱讀題目的同時,我們也要通過每一篇GRE、GMAT閱讀文章來強(qiáng)化訓(xùn)練自己實實在在的閱讀能力,例如:長難句的分析能力、詞匯的積累,寫作素材的積累、以及寫作結(jié)構(gòu)的掌握。可以說,每一篇GRE閱讀理解都是我們備考GRE、GMAT寫作的Issue部分的的素材庫以及范文展示,現(xiàn)在,我們拿GRE閱讀NO題的NO8-1這篇文章做一個示范,來說明一下除了我們做對每一個閱讀選擇題以外,我們應(yīng)該從閱讀文章中獲得些什么資源,提煉一個文章的哪些“語言要素”有助于英語能力的提高、GRE/GMAT寫作能力的提高,而不只是應(yīng)試閱讀能力的提高。
NO8-1,我們從“詞--句--篇章”來談?wù)勥@篇文章。
原文:
Geologists have long known that the Earth's mantle is heterogeneous, but its spatial arrangement remains unresolved—is the mantle essentially layered or irregularly heterogeneous? The best evidence for the layered-mantle thesis is the well-established fact that volcanic rocks found on oceanic islands, islands believed to result from mantle plumes arising from the lower mantle,are composed of material fundamentally different from that of the midocean ridge system, whose source, most geologists contend, is the upper mantle.Some geologists, however, on the basis of observations concerning mantle xenoliths, argue that the mantle is not layered, but that heterogeneity is created by fluids rich in "incompatible elements" (elements tending toward liquid rather than solid state) percolating upward and transforming portions of the upper mantle irregularly, according to the vagaries of the fluids' pathways. We believe, perhaps unimaginatively, that this debate can be resolved through further study, and that the underexplored midocean ridge system is the key.
