GRE两万词汇量不用怕，花式记单词方法奉上

(一)浅谈背单词的习惯

八个黄金片段：

起床后5分钟、早餐前5分钟、早餐后5分钟、午餐前5分钟、午餐后5分钟、晚餐前5分钟、晚餐后5分钟、睡前5分钟

任何时间任何地点都可以背GRE词汇书，GRE对词汇量要求非常大，要两万以上，上不封顶。

(二)GRE词汇记忆方法

1、词根词缀记忆单词

2、讲故事记忆单词

3、联想记忆单词

4、谐音记忆单词

具体举几个例子：

1、谐音记忆单词

sentimental adj. 感伤的，多愁善感的

释：arising from tender feelings rather than reasonable ones

例：He has a sentimental attachment to his birthplace.

sentimental music 伤感的音乐

谐音“三屉馒头”→吃了三屉馒头，吃饱饭没事干，开始多愁善感

scornful adj. 蔑视的，嘲讽的

同义词：contemptuous, disdainful

scorn [ 蔑视：s(死)+玉米(corn)→长得像死玉米→看不起你 ] + ful

例：He gave a scornful laugh at my proposal.

2、词根词缀记忆单词

The stem and its value are the basis of the English language.(John Kennedy)

词干及其所包含的意义是整个英语的基础(约翰·肯尼迪)

词根词缀的作用和地位

前缀方向→词根含义→后缀词性

词根 log 表示 speak [说]

以及有两个由尾辅音音变产生的同义词根 loqu 和 locu.

人生最大的乐趣莫过于克服困难，坚定脚步，亲眼目的自己将目标一一实现。(Dr. Samuel Johnson)

保证每天有 4-5 块单词记忆的时间，充分利用人类记忆两大黄金时间，早上起来的前 30-45 分钟，晚上入睡前的 30-45 分钟，然后在上午、中午或者下午，各任意抽出 45 分钟至 1 小时时间即可，这样每天总共有 2-3 个小时来背诵单词。

记住背单词的关键原则，第一遍接触考试词汇，你的目标不是和所有词成为莫逆之交，而是混个眼熟。要逐渐熟悉起来，应该反复，多遍地看词本身。

GRE填空答题方法

Question Structure

1、由 1-5 个句子组成的短文

2、 1-3 个空格

3、每个空格有 3 个选项(如果只有 1 个空格，则有 5 个选项)每个空格的选项是独立发挥作用的;也即，一个空格的选择不影响另一个空格的选项选择

4、每个空格只有一个正确选项;全部空格选出正确选项才得分，部分正确不得分

GRE填空的能力要求

输入(input)：句子结构、逻辑关系、语义认知、词汇理解

输出(output)：逻辑完整性、语义完整性、相关背景知识

Skilled readers do not simply absorb theinformation presented on the page; instead, they maintain a constant attitude of interpretation and evaluation, reasoning from what they have read so far to create a picture of the whole and revising that picture as they go.(ETS官网)

GRE填空主要考察单词和逻辑的两方面能力。

推理能力：

1、基本的逻辑思维能力

同义逻辑(A and B)：解释，并列，目的，修饰，递进，因果

反义逻辑(A but B)：对比，转折

2、基本的英文语法结构

词汇能力：

词汇能力是决定融入美国知识圈的必要条件。

填空题方法论：

1、确定与空格相关的逻辑关系。

2、确定与空格相关的语义。

当然最主要还是扩大词汇量，要把GRE核心词汇书作为 pillow book 枕边书，如果单词都不认识的话，那技巧再多还是枉然。

希望大家能立志成为词汇王，达到把玩英文的境界。
