GRE阅读与托福阅读的区别联系

都知道托福和GRE是ETS的同胞兄弟，不少考生都想一劳永逸，两个考试一次性拿下。梦想很丰满，现实却骨干。两个考试是彻低不同的方向，托福侧重语言能力(重点落在听力)，而GRE则是赤裸裸能力考察(俗称考智商)。这注定两门考试的备考和考点是迥异的。

但也无须灰心，毕竟一母同胞，再怎么不同也是有类似点的。GRE的整体难度系数大概就是转体三周半加托马斯盘旋，而托福不过是转体一周而已，所以不少学生会先决定GRE再决定托福，阅读，词汇和（作文）的整体难度都会感觉小不少。

那么，先决定托福，对于GRE有益处吗?

——有，也能让你一周内就控制转体三周半。

笔者（总结）了一下，托福和GRE中不少话题类型和题目类型是重复的，比如冰川，火星，maya水文明等话题都是类似的。尤其是火星，托福中有三篇考察火星的（文章），分离是关于TPO8(火星上的流水)，TPO16(太阳系中的行星)，TPO25(火星表面)其中，火星地表特征这一篇在GRE中也有考察。

对照一下会发现，文章是有颇多信息是相关并且类似的。比如都在探讨火星的地表特征，洼陷的地貌;造成这种地貌的缘故是什么。详细来说，托福商议火星地表的多个地表特征(地表上类似火山的特征以及地表上各种坑)，并且针对坑的形成有比较详细的内容描述。GRE只针对一个特征(火星北部的低洼地表)举行陈述，重点落在探讨形成这个地表特征的缘故。

两者的差异可以从两个角度来看，一方面是文章的行文重点。托福因为文章通常在600-700字之间，有大量的细节和论证过程。文章许多在说明火星表面的坑的形成缘故(和干燥气候有关)，坑能够供养的信息(星球的年纪和地表情况)，没有很显然的观点对照或者态度变化。简言之，好似一篇（说明文）。而GRE文章说明性内容很少(仅仅第一段推荐火星北部地表情况)第二段开始就是不同的观点来解释火星北部的低洼地表，其中有逻辑关系词However表明观点的变化，以及指示态度的展示。观点变化和态度，就是GRE的重点和考点。

另一方面，是选项的设置。因为托福的文章中细节比较多，所以细节题的考察也是比较多的，比如下面这个考题：

ThedetailedappearanceofMartianimpactcratersprovidesanimportantpieceofinformationaboutconditionsjustbelowtheplanet’ssurface.Martiancratersaresurroundedbyejecta(debrisformedasaresultofanimpact)thatlooksquitedifferentfromitslunarcounterparts.AcomparisonoftheCopernicuscraterontheMoonwiththe(fairlytypical)craterYutyonMarsdemonstratesthedifferences.Theejectasurroundingthelunarcraterisjustwhatonewouldexpectfromanexplosionejectingalargevolumeofdust,soil,andboulders.■However,theejectaonMarsgivesthedistinctimpressionofaliquidthathassplashedorflowedoutofcrater.■Geologiststhinkthatthisfluidizedejectacraterindicatesthatalayerofpermafrost,orwaterice,liesjustafewmetersunderthesurface.■Explosiveimpactsheatedandliquefiedtheice,resultinginthefluidappearanceoftheejecta.

12.Accordingtoparagraph6,theejectaofMars’scraterYutydiffersfromtheejectaoftheMoon’sCopernicuscraterinthattheejectaoftheYutycrater

○Hasnowbecomepartofapermafrostlayer

○Containsalargevolumeofdust,soilandboulders

○Suggeststhatliquidoncecameoutofthesurfaceatthecratersite

○Wasthrownacomparativelylongdistancefromthecenterofthecrater

针对段落中的火星的坑Yuty的喷出物和月亮的坑的喷出物的区别举行考察，根据题干中详细的对照对象描述可以定位原文（句子），大概是

“AcomparisonoftheCopernicuscraterontheMoonwiththe(fairlytypical)craterYutyonMarsdemonstratesthedifferences.Theejectasurroundingthelunarcraterisjustwhatonewouldexpectfromanexplosionejectingalargevolumeofdust,soil,andboulders.However,theejectaonMarsgivesthedistinctimpressionofaliquidthathassplashedorflowedoutofcrater.”

再根据题干的问题点是落脚在theejectaofYutycrater，也就是火星上的喷出物，所以详细是“However,theejectaonMarsgivesthedistinctimpressionofaliquidthathassplashedorflowedoutofcrater.”这句话，即然而，火星的喷出物明确表明是从坑里流出或者溅出的液体。最临近的选项就是CSuggeststhatliquidoncecameoutofthesurfaceatthecratersite表明从坑表面出来的液体。准确!

GRE的文章中也有类似的考题

C.takesthenorthernbasintobealandformthatisnotanalogoustoanyfoundonEarth

D.deniesthatfeaturesaroundthenorthernbasinaretheresultoftectonicactivity

E.attributesthecreationofthenorthernlowlandstoprocessesoccurringwithintheplanet

没有详细指代段落了，根据题干中M的名字进而定位文章内容。题干的核心在于M的解释和别的解释的不同之处，那么就是寻找原文M的独到观点，即“McGillinsteadbelievesthatthroughsomenovelmechanismtheancientsurfacesanktoitscurrentdepthasasingleunit.”。相反，M认为通过一些清新的机制，以前的表面沉降到现在的深度是单一事件。GRE选项和托福的选项有很大区别，选项不是原文句子的直接转写了。根据文意，再结合选项A错误，并没有解释特定的基层的特点。B准确，文中只提及M认为有清新的机制，并没有详细说是什么机制，选项符合。C，根据文意，地形上有类似于地球的海洋盆地，这个选项本身也不符合题干。D，否认北部盆地特点是由地壳活动造成的。文中M并没有否认，只是指出了证据上的不可靠性，所以C是错误的。E，将北部低地是由行星内的过程形成，文中M并没有这么表明，错误。需要根据文意，加以提炼和总结，得到答案是B。

控制好这两个考试的相似和区别，天然能够知道大哥GRE和小弟托福是各有分工各司其职，但偶尔也有小交集。抓好交集，厘清差异，大哥小弟就可以一起飞啦!
