GRE有哪些易错填空题

  新GRE填空题型分为两种，一种是2-3个空，各3个选项；另一种是1个空，5个选项。对于单空单选题，主要依靠阅读和逻辑分析的角度来考虑整段意思与单空之间的联系，推断填空词的大体含义和感彩，从而选出正确的选项。
  对于单空双选题的解题思路，与上面的单空单选题类似，**的差别就是多了同义词辨析，所以，可以从词汇理解与逻辑关系角度来分析选项。对于多空多选题，因为空的内容偏多，致使部分考生认为逻辑混乱，产生答题困难。

  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
  【词汇】
  Sagacious：showing good judgement and understanding
  【解析】The Middle East still contains vast oil supplies. 说明这油够用，那fear就没有必要。因此一空选 B。Furthermore并且，even i让步关系推出第二空选一个体现石油的发现并不多的意思，所以正确答案选 D 选项。unfounded 无根据的，less frequent 不频繁的。
  【翻译】恐惧最近油价快速上涨推出油正在用尽，这似乎是没有根据的。中东仍有着大量的石油供给。并且，即使之前在别的地方的发现新油已经越来越不常见了，大量的油仍能够高利润地从沥青和页岩中剥夺。
  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
  【词汇】
  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来说,他们的失败在于(i)______ historical anecdote and observation,然后通过verifiableand experimentalscientificmeans而不是observation (historical anecdote and observation)anecdote指的是野史,传言,说明historical anecdote and observation是一个不好的方法,那么nineteenth-century advocates的苦难,一定是因为他们和historical anecdote and observation产生了正面的联系,然后和verifiableand experimentalscientificmeans产生了负面的联系,所以一空天正向,二空填负向
  一空选出employed使用。
  二空的难点在于区分problematic还是unnecessary,因为说了是difficulty, 那么对于nineteenth-century advocates来说, 不是不想用verifiable and experimental scientific means, 而是有困难, 所以推出problematic。
  最后一句, led to前后取同, 前面没能用好的方法, 那么后面一定是没得出想要的结果, 填一个负向的词语, revive表示复生, drop out表示使...失败, lose out to表示被打败, 选择drop out of。
  用科学方法反而是会造成困难的，而正是这个原因导致了这种link没有了合理性，选H。
  【翻译】19 世纪那些森林能够调解气候的说法的支持者们的困难是他们的言论运用了历史的轶事和观察。通过可信的且基于实验科学的方法而不是基于观察来证明森林和气候的联系对于这些个体来说是受到质疑的，这是一种最终会导致这种联系不再能够支持森林保护的合理性。
