相對(duì)于GRE閱讀來(lái)說(shuō)，GRE填空題是可以下功夫得高分的一種題型，在GRE verbal每個(gè)section的38道題當(dāng)中，填空題占了7道題。下面我們一起來(lái)看一下GRE填空題滿分解題技巧。
在談技巧之前要注意自己的基礎(chǔ)，首先是詞匯是基礎(chǔ)，記住GRE詞匯書(shū)上的百分之八、九十的詞匯;其次，很好的閱讀理解能力和清晰的邏輯頭腦。這是最基本的兩點(diǎn)。詳細(xì)的解題方法如下：
3. 對(duì)于含義晦澀的句子，判斷語(yǔ)氣或感情色彩是有效地解決方法，有時(shí)候甚至是唯一的方法。
Johnson never ___ to ignore the standards of decent conduct mandated by company policy if ___ compliance with instructions from his superiors enabled him to do so, whatever the effects on his subordinates.
A. deigned.. tacit B. attempted.. halfhearted C. intended.. direct
D. scrupled.. literal E. wished.. feigned
這句話對(duì)于英語(yǔ)閱讀能力較差的學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)，通過(guò)正常的閱讀理解來(lái)做還是有些難度的。但是如果注意到whatever the effects on his subordinates(無(wú)論對(duì)下級(jí)產(chǎn)生什么影響)的語(yǔ)氣，就可以判斷第一空格填入后應(yīng)表示johnson干的不是什么好事，唯一符合這一判斷的是D選項(xiàng)。
Ironically, the party leaders encountered no greater ___ their efforts to build a progressive party than the ___ of the progressives already elected to the legislature.
A. support for.. advocacy B. threat to.. promise C. benefit from.. success
D. obstacle to.. resistance E. praise for.. reputation
如果知道encounter的正確用法，就可以判斷第一空格應(yīng)填入一個(gè)負(fù)面色彩的詞，這樣就輕松排除了A、C、E三個(gè)選項(xiàng)，結(jié)合后面的意思來(lái)看，只能選D。
Although ___ is usually thought to spring from regret for having done something wrong, it may be that its origin is the realization that one's own nature is irremediably ___.
A. contrition.. resilient B. certitude.. confident C.skepticism.. innocent
D. remorse.. flawed E. resignation. frivolous
第二空格被副詞irremediably(不可救藥地)修飾，根據(jù)這個(gè)詞帶出的語(yǔ)氣可以判斷第二空格應(yīng)填入一個(gè)負(fù)面色彩的詞，符合這一判斷的只有D、 E兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)。第一空格remorse的意思完全地對(duì)應(yīng)“regret for having done something wrong”，故選D。
Any language is a conspiracy against experience in the sense that it is a collective attempt to ___ experience by reducing it into discrete parcels.
A. extrapolate B. transcribe C. complicate D. amplify E. manage
這句話如果沒(méi)有看過(guò)相關(guān)背景的書(shū)籍幾乎是不可理解的，但是我們可以通過(guò)語(yǔ)氣和感情色彩的判斷來(lái)排除錯(cuò)誤的選項(xiàng)，最終剩下一個(gè)看不出錯(cuò)的選項(xiàng)，也就是正確選項(xiàng)了。因?yàn)檎Z(yǔ)言是對(duì)抗經(jīng)驗(yàn)的陰謀(conspiracy against)，所以空格應(yīng)填入一個(gè)負(fù)面色彩的動(dòng)作，只有C選項(xiàng)(使復(fù)雜化、使變得麻煩)和E選項(xiàng)(manage除了中性的經(jīng)營(yíng)管理之外，還可以表示負(fù)面的操縱控制)符合這一判斷。結(jié)合方式狀語(yǔ)by reducing(減少、分解、簡(jiǎn)化)來(lái)看，C選項(xiàng)應(yīng)被排除，最后剩下仍然看不懂句意的E選項(xiàng)就對(duì)了。
4.推理判斷時(shí)注意避免發(fā)散思維
Natural selection tends to eliminate genes that cause inherited diseases, acting most strongly against the most severe diseases; consequently, hereditary diseases that are ___ would be expected to be very ___, but, surprisingly, they are not.
A. lethal.. rare B. untreated.. dangerous C. unusual.. refractory
D. new.. perplexing E. widespread.. acute
根據(jù)consequently提示的上下因果關(guān)系我們可以判斷第一空格應(yīng)填入severe的同義或反義，表示嚴(yán)重或不嚴(yán)重的詞只有A選項(xiàng)。B選項(xiàng)表示未曾治療的，D不用說(shuō)了。C、E兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)其實(shí)和是否嚴(yán)重沒(méi)有關(guān)系，很多時(shí)候干擾選項(xiàng)的設(shè)置上利用了我們的習(xí)慣思維不縝密的、容易想當(dāng)然的弱點(diǎn)。很多人會(huì)認(rèn)為不尋常的、很少見(jiàn)的疾病就是嚴(yán)重的，尋常的、隨處可見(jiàn)的疾病就是不嚴(yán)重的。但是只要稍微想一下就知道這里面沒(méi)有任何必然的關(guān)系。
Although ___, almost self-effacing in his private life, he displays in his plays and essays a strong ___ publicity and controversy.
A. conventional.. interest in B. monotonous.. reliance on C. shy.. aversion toward
D. retiring.. penchant for E. evasive.. impatience with
第二空格根據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系顯然只能選A、D兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)，第一空格會(huì)有很多人覺(jué)得A選項(xiàng)可以選，因?yàn)橛X(jué)得傳統(tǒng)的人就是不喜歡拋頭露面的，不喜歡與人爭(zhēng)吵的。同樣只要想想就該知道這里面沒(méi)有任何必然的關(guān)系，并且即便我們中國(guó)傳統(tǒng)的人真是這樣，這里也沒(méi)說(shuō)他是中國(guó)人。這種干擾選項(xiàng)的設(shè)置路數(shù)和上一道題的感覺(jué)是完全一樣的。
Considering how long she had yearned to see Italy, her first reaction was curiously ___.
A. meditative B. tepid C. categorical D. unoriginal E. insightful
干擾選項(xiàng)的設(shè)置和上兩道題完全一樣，A選項(xiàng)的沉思冥想并不表示她所應(yīng)具有的高興振奮的態(tài)度的相反，正確選項(xiàng)應(yīng)為B選項(xiàng)(微溫的，缺乏熱情或激情的)，直接表明了與興奮激動(dòng)的態(tài)度的相反特征。
以上便是部分GRE填空題滿分解題技巧，需要告訴大家的是經(jīng)驗(yàn)技巧是在實(shí)力基礎(chǔ)上的，可以說(shuō)是錦上添花，考生切勿迷信過(guò)多的技巧。預(yù)?？忌罱K取得GRE考試高分。
