??新GRE填空題型分為兩種，一種是2-3個空，各3個選項；另一種是1個空，5個選項。對于單空單選題，主要依靠閱讀和邏輯分析的角度來考慮整段意思與單空之間的聯(lián)系，推斷填空詞的大體含義和感彩，從而選出正確的選項。
??對于單空雙選題的解題思路，與上面的單空單選題類似，**的差別就是多了同義詞辨析，所以，可以從詞匯理解與邏輯關(guān)系角度來分析選項。對于多空多選題，因為空的內(nèi)容偏多，致使部分考生認為邏輯混亂，產(chǎn)生答題困難。
??GRE易錯填空題講解
??Fears that the recent sharp rise in oil prices is an indication that oil is running out appear to be (i)_____. The Middle East still contains vast oil supplies. Furthermore, even if new oil finds elsewhere have been (ii)_____ than in the past, substantial quantities of oil can be profitably stripped from tar and shale.
??Blank (I)Blank (II)
??A：contagious D：less frequent
??B：unfounded E：more accessible
??C：sagacious F：less publicized
??【答案】BD
??【詞匯】
??Sagacious：showing good judgement and understanding
??【解析】The Middle East still contains vast oil supplies. 說明這油夠用，那fear就沒有必要。因此一空選 B。Furthermore并且，even i讓步關(guān)系推出第二空選一個體現(xiàn)石油的發(fā)現(xiàn)并不多的意思，所以正確答案選 D 選項。unfounded 無根據(jù)的，less frequent 不頻繁的。
??【翻譯】恐懼最近油價快速上漲推出油正在用盡，這似乎是沒有根據(jù)的。中東仍有著大量的石油供給。并且，即使之前在別的地方的發(fā)現(xiàn)新油已經(jīng)越來越不常見了，大量的油仍能夠高利潤地從瀝青和頁巖中剝奪。
??The difficulty for nineteenth-century advocates of the claim that forests helped regulate climate was that their argument (i)_____ historical anecdote and observations. Proving the forest-climate link through verifiable and experimental scientific means rather than observation was (ii)_____ for these individuals, a situation that eventually led to the link (iii)_____ justifications for forest conservation.
??Blank (I)Blank (II)Blank (III)
??A. lackedD. problematicG. being revived in
??B. discountedE. unnecessaryH. dropping out of
??C. EmployedF. straightforwardI. losing out to
??【答案】CDH
??【詞匯】
??Problematic: difficult to deal with or to understand; full of problems; not certain to be successful
??drop out of: withdraw from; quit
??【解析】The difficulty for nineteenth-century advocates of the claim來說,他們的失敗在于(i)______ historical anecdote and observation,然后通過verifiableand experimentalscientificmeans而不是observation (historical anecdote and observation)anecdote指的是野史,傳言,說明historical anecdote and observation是一個不好的方法,那么nineteenth-century advocates的苦難,一定是因為他們和historical anecdote and observation產(chǎn)生了正面的聯(lián)系,然后和verifiableand experimentalscientificmeans產(chǎn)生了負面的聯(lián)系,所以一空天正向,二空填負向
??一空選出employed使用。
??二空的難點在于區(qū)分problematic還是unnecessary,因為說了是difficulty, 那么對于nineteenth-century advocates來說, 不是不想用verifiable and experimental scientific means, 而是有困難, 所以推出problematic。
??最后一句, led to前后取同, 前面沒能用好的方法, 那么后面一定是沒得出想要的結(jié)果, 填一個負向的詞語, revive表示復(fù)生, drop out表示使...失敗, lose out to表示被打敗, 選擇drop out of。
??用科學(xué)方法反而是會造成困難的，而正是這個原因?qū)е铝诉@種link沒有了合理性，選H。
??【翻譯】19 世紀那些森林能夠調(diào)解氣候的說法的支持者們的困難是他們的言論運用了歷史的軼事和觀察。通過可信的且基于實驗科學(xué)的方法而不是基于觀察來證明森林和氣候的聯(lián)系對于這些個體來說是受到質(zhì)疑的，這是一種最終會導(dǎo)致這種聯(lián)系不再能夠支持森林保護的合理性。
