  今天我们整理的这些题型都是GMAT阅读考试中的常见题型,并且附带了一些考点知识,这些内容对大家得备考非常有意义,对大家的成绩提升还是有很大的帮助的。下面我们一起来看看具体的内容。

  常见题型与考点-主旨题

  Gmat的文章多以以下三种类型出现,所以对应每种类别,我们可以通过主旨题选项中的一些关键词去找寻优先选择的答案:

  解释说明类:

  discuss,describe,explain,present, point out

  批判推新类:

  criticize,correct,question,compare...

  对比区分类

  distinction,distinguish,difference,contrast

  常见题型与考点-态度题

  态度题虽然是较为简单的一种题目类型,但是对于Gre考试来说争分夺秒是取得高分的关键,那么此类题目有无较为快捷的判断方法呢?首先我们先来总结一下gmat文章中常见的态度词

  [常见态度词]-正评价

  accessible可以理解的admirable 令人佩服的admitted值得肯定的

  comprehensive综合的enthusiastic 充满激情的novel新颖的

  important重要的persuasive有说服力的acknowledged被认可的

  [常见态度词]-负评价

  influential有影响力的plausible看似正确的dubious另人怀疑的

  paradoxical矛盾的inadequate不足的unchalleged未被挑战的

  invalid无效的unsupported无根据的inappropriate不恰当的

  这里influential常被学生当作正评价来看待,但是事实上这个词一旦出现往往预示着作者将在后文当中的负评价,所以遇到这个词一定要格外小心的对待。

  由于gmat的文章大多以议论说明为主,所以作者的态度也是有一些既定的特点的,既然如此那么选项当中就有一些规律可以为大家所利用:

  [必选]

  客观objective/unbiased/justified/disinterested

  怀疑skeptic/question/doubt

  公正dispassionate/detached/neutral

  (enthusiastic/indignant/indifference)*括号当中为反例

  [优选]

  批评criticize(decry/disparage/deprecate)

  全面qualified/reserved/guarded

  讽刺ironic/amused(cynical)

  [其他态度词]

  a.一些副词:fortunately,unfortunately,merely,erroneously,falsely....

  b.动词:mislead,overestimate,fail to..

  c.名词:limitation,misconception,omission...

  下面我们来看一些例句:

  1.It would be wonderful to observe a singularity and obtain direct evidence of the undoubtedly bizarre phenomena that occur near one. Unfortunatelyin most cases a distant observer cannot see the singularity;

  2. But those of us who hoped,with Kolb, that Kolb's newly published complete edition of Proust's correspondence for 1909 would document the process in greater detail are disappointed.

  3. Thomas Hardy's impulses as a writer, all of which he indulged in his novels, were numerous and divergent, and they did not always work together in harmony.

  4. As for the left-eyed and right-eyed flatfish, their difference, however striking, appears to be an evolutionary red herring.

  5. The activity has been brisk, and a new creed has now spread.

  The author's attitude toward the “activity” mentioned in line 23 and its consequences can best be described as one of

  (A) amused tolerance

  (B) mocking envy

  (C) grave doubt

  (D) angry disapproval

  (E) unrestrained enthusiasm

  这个例题当中brisk和new都属于正评价词语,那么结合上面我们给大家的必选和优选选项,答案很明显只能选A。

  常见题型与考点-逻辑题

  Policymakers must confront the dilemma that fossil fuels continue to be an indispensable source of energy even though burning them produces atmospheric accumulations of carbon dioxide that increase the likelihood of potentially disastrous global climate change. Currently, technology that would capture carbon dioxide emitted by power plants and sequester it harmlessly underground or undersea instead of releasing it into the atmosphere might double the cost of generating electricity. But because sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, delivered prices will rise less, by no more than 50 percent. Research into better technologies for capturing carbon dioxide will undoubtedly lead to lowered costs.

  1. The passage implies which of the following about the current cost of generating electricity?

  A. It is higher than it would be if better technologies for capturing carbon dioxide were available。

  B. It is somewhat less than the cost of electricity transmission and distribution。

  C. It constitutes at most half of the delivered price of electricity。

  Currently, technology[ that would capture carbon dioxide emitted by power plants and sequester it harmlessly underground or undersea instead of releasing it into the atmosphere ]might double the cost of generating electricity. Butbecause sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, delivered prices will rise less, by no more than 50 percent.

  最终价格(delivered price)=发电成本(generate)+传输成本(transmission)

  使用环保技术后,发电成本增加了原来的一倍,但是最终价格增长不超过50%,可以得出结论,发电成本,最多占最终价格的50%。

  文章当中蕴含了一个比较简单但是却容易被学生忽略的逻辑推导,根据上述的推理,这道题答案应该选C。

  常见题型与考点-三强关系

  [强对比]

  African music, unlike the music of some other cultures, was based on a total vision of life in which music was not an isolated social domain.

  The phrase isolated social domain refers to

  (A) African music in relation to contemporary culture as a whole

  (B) music as it may be perceived in non-African cultures

  (C) a feature of African music that aided in transmitting African cultural values

  (D) an aspect of the African cultural legacy

  (E)the influence of music on contemporary culture

  很明显通过unlike这个词,other cultures和African music 构成了一个对比关系,那么两者的特点是要取反的。文章当中说African music is not an isolated social domain, 所以正话反说,isolated social domain是othercultures的特点,那么最接近的答案是B。

  [强转折]

  Perhaps, some scientists thought, migrants determine their geographic position on Earth by celestial navigation, almost as human navigators use stars and planets, but this would demand of the animals a fantastic map sense.

  In maintaining that migrating animals would need “a fantastic map sense” to determine their geographic position by celestial navigation, the author intends to express

  (A) admiration for the ability of the migrants

  (B) skepticism about celestial navigation as an explanation

  (C) certainly that the phenomenon of migration will remain mysterious

  (D) interest in a new method of accounting for over-water migration

  (E) surprise that animals apparently navigate in much the same way that human beings do

  一个转折词的出现证明作者对于这种假说是存在质疑的,结合态度题的规律,这道题很容易能够确定应该是B。

  [强因果]

  Inevitably, because Hardy did not care in the way that novelists such as Flaubert or James cared, and therefore took paths of least resistance. Thus, one impulse often surrendered to a fresher one and, unfortunately, instead of exacting a compromise, simply disappeared.

  The passage supplies information to suggest that its author would be most likely to agree with which of the following statements about the novelists Flaubert and James?

  (A) They indulged more impulses in their novels than did Hardy in his novels.

  (B) They have elicited a greater degree of favorable response from most literary critics than has Hardy.

  (C) In the writing of their novels, they often took pains to effect a compromise among their various novelistic impulses.

  (D) Regarding novelistic construction, they cared more about the opinions of other novelists than about the opinions of ordinary readers.

  (E) They wrote novels in which the impulse toward realism and the impulse away from realism were evident in equal measure.

  这道题里面其实也包含了一个强对比,Thomas Hardy和F以及J是对比,那么特点取反。TH从来不会做出妥协,任由想法肆意改变,那么与之对比F和J就要做出妥协忍痛割爱了,所以答案选C。
