改掉这些错误的GRE阅读做题习惯

颠倒阅读重点，不知道区分主次

在把握GRE阅读文章时，考生首先应读出其规律层次，其中包括套路，各段段意，各段之间的规律关系以及主题句。其次，需留意文章中的一些重点语言现象，如GRE强转折，强因果和强对比等词所在的句子。同时在看文章时对一些重要的细节要记住它们大致的位置。有些考生看到一篇篇幅很长的问题，不知道入手下手，也不清晰哪些是重点内容，这也是需要通过练习来进一步强化的。

盲目求快而忽视了文章中主要的信息

有些考生片面理解新GRE阅读中的快速阅读，认为快速阅读仅仅指的就是提高单位时间内容阅读单词的数量，所以在阅读实践中盲目提速。导致文章中重要的主干内容被忽视。也有有些考生在处理上一段的时候以极快的速度从头念到尾，却没有区分关键信息和非关键信息。结果就造成虽然读得很快，但读完以后却什么重要内容都没记住，白白铺张了读一遍的时间。

看到细节部分就缩手缩脚，不敢舍弃

有的考生在备考时也基本认同了快速阅读方法的合理性，可在实际扫瞄GRE阅读理解文章的过程中还是缩手缩脚，不敢快速阅读一些细节。也有些考生将GRE考试的大量时间花在细节上，最终导致没有时间去思索该这部分内容是否值得他这样去细细品尝。会消失这种问题一方面是大家还缺乏自信，另一方面则是由于缺乏抓重点的力量。GRE题目中细节题其实还是比较少的，假如大家在阅读文章发觉一些细节，建议大致看一下了解内容后做个标记，假如题目中涉及到了再返回定位一下即可。

JeanWagner‘smostenduringcontributiontothestudyofAfro-Americanpoetryishisinsistencethatitbeanalyzedinareligious,aswellassecular,frameofreference.

JW对于非裔US人诗歌讨论的最不懈的贡献，是坚持在宗教和世俗参照系内分别讨论。

2

Theappropriatenessofsuchanapproachmayseemself-evidentforatraditioncommencingwithspiritualsandowingitsearlyforms,rhythms,vocabulary,andevangelicalfervortoWesleyanhymnals.

这种诗歌传统发源于圣歌，其形式、节奏、词汇、宗教热忱都来自于卫理教派的赞美诗集，所以这种讨论方式是恰当的，不言而喻。

3

ButbeforeWagnerasecularoutlookthatanalyzedBlackpoetrysolelywithinthecontextofpoliticalandsocialprotestwasdominantinthefield.

但在W以前，这个领域内的主流讨论方式，是单纯在政治和社会抗争的语境下以世俗视角观看黑人诗歌。

4

ItisWagnerwhofirstdemonstratedtheessentialfusionofracialandreligiousfeelinginAfro-Americanpoetry.

是W首先论证出，US黑人诗歌中的种族与宗教情感本质上相互交融。

5

Thetwo,heargued,formasymbioticunioninwhichreligiousfeelingsareoftenappliedtoracialissuesandracialproblemsareoftenprojectedontoametaphysicalplane.

他认为，二者构成一个共生体，在种族大事中宗教情感常常得以表达，而种族问题也常常被投射于形而上的层面。

6

WagnerfoundthismosteloquentlyillustratedintheBlackspiritual,wherethedesireforfreedominthisworldandthehopeforsalvationinthenextareinextricablyintertwined.(159words)

W认为这种共生的观点在黑人圣歌中表现的表现得最为明显，在现实世界对自由的渴望与在天堂灵魂被救赎的盼望相互纠结，密不行分。

(D)indicatetheimportanceofJeanWagner‘sanalysisofAfro-Americanpoetry

(E)presentthecontributionsofJeanWagnertothestudyofBlackspirituals

选D

A只是对比了二者讨论在某一点的区分，没有对比其他，A说法过分。

BW是对黑人诗歌的解读分析有贡献，对诗歌进展的贡献未知。

CW讨论的是诗歌，不是黑人的宗教。

D正确，示意W讨论的重要意义。

E理由同C

2.AllofthefollowingaspectsofAfro-AmericanpoetryarereferredtointhepassageashavingbeeninfluencedbyWesleyanhymnalsEXCEPT

(A)subjectmatter

(B)wordchoice

(C)rhythm

(D)structure

(E)tone

选A

好题。

B/C/D分别对应句2“earlyforms,rhythms,vocabulary,andevangelicalfervor”中的vocabulary/rhythms/earlyforms，争议在于tone对应A还是E。

假定A是正确的，即黑人诗歌的主题也被卫理教派圣歌影响，则与句3冲突，由于W以前的主流讨论方式从未关注诗歌与宗教的关系，假如真的主题相关，是没可能被忽视了二者联系的。

所以选E，tone指叙述的情调、气氛，对应宗教热忱。

选B

难题。

A从诗歌中的政治抗议转为直接的政治活动，未知信息。

B正确。句3“ButbeforeWagnerasecularoutlookthatanalyzedBlackpoetrysolelywithinthecontextofpoliticalandsocialprotestwasdominantinthefield.”由solely可知ignoredatleastsomeofthehistoricalroots.

C没有Blackspiritual的事，瞎聊。

Demotionalism感情主义?或许也许是马景涛在琼瑶剧里那种表演方式吧?未知信息。

Etechnicalelements写诗的技巧，未知。

Intheearly1950‘s,historianswhostudiedpreindustrialEurope(whichwemaydefinehereasEuropeintheperiodfromroughly1300to1800)began,forthefirsttimeinlargenumbers,toinvestigatemoreofthepreindustrialEuropeanpopulationthanthe2or3percentwhocomprisedthepoliticalandsocialelite:thekings,generals,judges,nobles,bishops,andlocalmagnateswhohadhithertousuallyfilledhistorybooks.

1950年月早期，讨论前工业化欧洲(可大商定义为1300-1800年的欧洲)的历史学者，第一次大量地开头调查前工业化时期的欧洲大众，而不是2%或3%的社会政治精英阶层，也就是国王，上将，法官，贵族，主教和迄今为止始终充斥历史书籍的地方巨头。

2

Onedifficulty,however,wasthatfewoftheremaining97percentrecordedtheirthoughtsorhadthemchronicledbycontemporaries.

然而，一个难题是，这97%中没什么人记录了自己或其他人的想法。

3

Facedwiththissituation,manyhistoriansbasedtheirinvestigationsontheonlyrecordsthatseemedtoexist:birth,marriage,anddeathrecords.

基于这种条件，许多学者的讨论建立在几乎仅存的记录之上：诞生，婚姻和死亡记录。

4

Asaresult,muchoftheearlyworkonthenonelitewasaridlystatisticalinnature;reducingthevastmajorityofthepopulationtoasetofnumberswashardlymoreenlighteningthanignoringthemaltogether.

结果，讨论平民的大量早期工作是枯燥的统计工作：把大量民众简化为一系列数字并不比忽视他们强多少。

5

Historiansstilldidnotknowwhatthesepeoplethoughtorfelt.

学者们仍旧不了解这些人的想法和感受。

6

Onewayoutofthisdilemmawastoturntotherecordsoflegalcourts,forherethevoicesofthenonelitecanmostoftenbeheard,aswitnesses,plaintiffs,anddefendants.

摆脱这种两难境况的一种方法，是转而讨论法庭记录，在这里常常可以听到大众的声音，作为证人，起诉人和辩护人。

7

Thesedocumentshaveactedasapointofentryintothementalworldofthepoor.

这些记录使我们“得以进入穷人的精神世界”。

8

HistorianssuchasLeRoyLaduriehaveusedthedocumentstoextractcasehistories,whichhaveilluminatedtheattitudesofdifferentsocialgroups(theseattitudesinclude,butarenotconfinedto,attitudestowardcrimeandthelaw)andhaverevealedhowtheauthoritiesadministeredjustice.

历史学者比如LRL从这些记录中提取了讼案故事，展现了不同社会群体的态度(包括且不仅限于对法律和犯罪的态度)，也揭示了权力机构如何执行正义。

9

IthasbeensocietiesthathavehadadevelopedpolicesystemandpracticedRomanlaw,withitswrittendepositions,whosecourtrecordshaveyieldedthemostdatatohistorians.

从手写的宣誓证词可以看出，那是一个实行罗马法且已有较发达的警察系统的社会，法庭记录向学者供应了多数档案。

10

InAnglo-Saxoncountrieshardlyanyofthesebenefitsobtain,butithasstillbeenpossibletogleaninformationfromthestudyoflegaldocuments.

在盎格鲁-萨克逊国家已经少有这些好处，但我们仍可以从对法律档案的讨论中窥得一二。

11

Theextractionofcasehistoriesisnot,however,theonlyusetowhichcourtrecordsmaybeput.

然而，提取讼案故事并非法庭记录的唯一用途。

12

HistorianswhostudypreindustrialEuropehaveusedtherecordstoestablishaseriesofcategoriesofcrimeandtoquantifyindictmentsthatwereissuedoveragivennumberofyears.

讨论前工业化时期欧洲的学者们用这些记录建立起一系列犯罪的类别，又统计出肯定年限内的起诉数量。

13

Thisuseoftherecordsdoesyieldsomeinformationaboutthenonelite,butthisinformationgivesuslittleinsightintothementallivesofthenonelite.

如此使用这些记录，的确给我们供应了关于平民的一些信息，但这不能使我们了解他们的精神世界。

14

WealsoknowthatthenumberofindictmentsinpreindustrialEuropebearslittlerelationtothenumberofactualcriminalacts,andwestronglysuspectthattherelationshiphasvariedwidelyovertime.

我们也知道，前工业化时期欧洲的起诉数量与实际犯罪行为的数量没什么关系，而且我们怀疑，两者的关系随时间的起伏很大。

15

Inaddition,aggregatepopulationestimatesareveryshaky,whichmakesitdifficultforhistorianstocompareratesofcrimeperthousandinonedecadeofthepreindustrialperiodwithratesinanotherdecade.

另外，总人口数量的估量也特别不行靠，导致学者们很难比较前工业化时期的欧洲不同的十年间每千人犯罪率。

16

Giventheseinadequacies,itisclearwhythecasehistoryuseofcourtrecordsistobepreferred.(473words)

鉴于这些不足，为何法庭记录更多被用来写讼案故事，也就不难理解了。
