下面是出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)小編為大家整理的2017年5月GRE考試預(yù)測(cè)試題及答案，歡迎大家閱讀。
1. Blake’s reputation for weakness is _____: almost all who have worked with him say he is a disciplined, intellectually formidable, and very tough politician.
A. specious
B. pervasive
C. irreversible
D. trivial
E. ambivalent
參考答案：A
題目解析：A:B前后構(gòu)成同義解釋關(guān)系，后面說Blake講原則，令人敬畏，所以前面部分填入表示weakness是“不存在”類別詞匯。
2. Retrofitted with stabilizing devices, some of which _____ its aesthetics, the bridge has been reopened, no longer prone to excessive swaying but not quite the breathtaking structure it originally was.
A. impair
B. resist
C. improve
D. enhance
E. restore
F. compromise
參考答案：A F
題目解析：這座橋用了一些穩(wěn)固裝置進(jìn)行翻新以后，其中一些(some of which)【破壞】了它的美觀，這個(gè)橋重新開放以后，不再會(huì)傾向于(prone to)像以前那樣過分的搖晃了，但是也沒了原本會(huì)令人驚訝嘆服的外觀結(jié)構(gòu)。所以根據(jù)最后no longer... but not 判斷橋更穩(wěn)固但是犧牲了美觀，因此前面應(yīng)該是負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)，答案為AF損壞。resist 對(duì)抗，抵制;improve 提高，改進(jìn); enhance 提高，增加; restore 修復(fù)。
3. Mr. Hirsch says he will aim to preserve the foundation’s support of _____ thinkers, individuals who are going against the trends in a field or an acknowledged set of opinions.
A. iconoclastic
B. integrative
C. doctrinaire
D. heterodox
E. dogmatic
F. synthesizing
參考答案：A D
題目解析：應(yīng)當(dāng)選擇的詞匯是表達(dá)反對(duì)意見,跟后面的against相呼應(yīng)的詞匯。首先這個(gè)句子個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)簡(jiǎn)單，所以要找到里面的對(duì)等部分，要么是同義要么是反義，這句里沒有強(qiáng)烈反義詞匯，所以基本直接斷定同義。再看句子就知道找和against the trends in a field or an acknowledged set of opinions 同義的詞匯，所以就是heterodox和iconoclastic。
4. In France cultural subsidies are _____: producers of just about any film can get an advance from the government against box-office receipts, even though most such loans are never fully repaid.
A. ubiquitous
B. invaluable
C. sporadic
D. scanty
E. questionable
F. omnipresent
參考答案：A F
題目解析：本題題眼應(yīng)該是get an advance from the government，所以對(duì)于subsidies的態(tài)度應(yīng)該是正向的，選項(xiàng)中只有AF有正向含義。Even though后的負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)有一定的干擾性但是題目中用fully弱化了這一負(fù)評(píng)價(jià)，而且even though句子的重點(diǎn)本來就不在even though后面是另一句話，也就是producers of just about any film can get an advance 這里，尤其是這里的any，已經(jīng)很明顯的暗示了AF。
5. With the rate of technological (i) _____ accelerating—many people now consider a personal computer (ii) _____ after three years—the question of how to properly dispose of old equipment is no small matter.
Blank (i) Blank (ii)
A. affordability D. outdated
B. complexity E. familiar
C. obsolescence F. inestimable
參考答案：C D
題目解析：這題的意思是當(dāng)科技過時(shí)加速時(shí)候，現(xiàn)在很多人都覺得電腦用三年就過時(shí)了----對(duì)于如何處置舊的裝置已經(jīng)不是個(gè)小問題了。破折號(hào)是進(jìn)一步解釋前面的意思。題目意思看懂了后就能很快選出2個(gè)相近的意思的選項(xiàng)，即是CD.
6. It may be that a kind of pendulum is built into United States politics: if a particular interest group scores a major victory, its supporters (i) _____ and its adversaries (ii) _____ their efforts, so that the victory is soon (iii) _____ .
Blank (i) Blank (ii) Blank (iii)
A. consider new possibilities D. abandon G. reversed
B. grow complacent E. redouble H. augmented
C. become even more focused F. defend I. institutionalized
參考答案：B E G
題目解析：Pendulum=n. 鐘擺;搖錘;搖擺不定的事態(tài)
blank 1：supporter的xx做法或是狀態(tài)會(huì)對(duì)particular interest group起到一個(gè)負(fù)方向的作用，所以grow complacent
blank 2：adversaries競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手的xx做法或是狀態(tài)會(huì)對(duì)自己產(chǎn)生正方向的作用，所以只有redouble加倍努力
blank 3：那么particular interest group的勝利victory就會(huì)失敗，就是負(fù)方向的作用，所以reversed推翻, 取消，使倒退, 逆轉(zhuǎn)
