GRE填空提速技巧介绍 巧用周围线索秒杀难题
例1
The ---------- of mass literacy coincided with the first industrial revolution; in turn, the new expansion in literacy, as well as cheaper printing, helped nurture the ---------- of popular literature.
(A) building ... mistrust
(B) reappearance ... display
(C) receipt ... source
(D) selection ... influence
(E) emergence ... rise
解答
在空格Ⅰ处,需在定冠词和介词(of)之间代入一名词,以说明"mass literacy"方面的某一情形。在第二句句子开头,主语the expansion in literacy显然是对前述的mass literacy作某种形式的复述,这便可将介于定冠词和介词in之间的expansion提取出来代入空格Ⅰ。在空格Ⅱ处,又需在定冠词和介词(of)之间代入一名词。从动词"helped nurture"可判断出一种因果关系,按因果统一律的原则,可将作为原因的expansion移入空格Ⅱ作为结果。这样,语法结构相同的空格Ⅰ和空格Ⅱ应代入两个与expansion为同(近)义的词汇,正确答案为(E)。
翻译
大众文化知识之普及,它的出现正值等一次工业革命;反过来,文化知识的新发展,加诸于廉价的印刷,有助于培养通俗文学的兴起。
例2
Every novel invites us to enter a world that is initially strange; our gradual and selective orientation to its manners --------- the infant’s --------- to their environment.
(A) imitates ... welcome
(B) completes ... introduction
(C) resembles ... adjustment
(D) alters ... blindness
(E) reinforces ... resistance
解答
空格Ⅱ:观其语法结构,需在所有格(infant’s)和介词(to)之间代入一名词,这可从语法结构相似的该句主语,即介于所有格(out)和介词(to)之间的名词orientation获取线索,求得同义词(C) adjustment。空格Ⅰ:在主语和宾语为同义词的情况下,代入的动词(C) resembles就完美地体现出两者间的并列关系。本题的主题是:成人之于小说,就如婴儿之于他们的环境,都会有某种陌生感,需逐渐地予以调整适应。
词汇
orientation: 1.定位,定向 2.适应,熟悉
翻译
每一部小说都诱使我们进入一个初看上去倍显陌生的世界中去;我们逐渐地,有选择地适应其种.种情形,与婴孩对其新环境的调整别无两致。
