GRE填空學(xué)會(huì)判斷邏輯關(guān)系

　　GRE填空技巧之判斷句子之間的邏輯關(guān)系

　　GRE填空考察的就是整體邏輯語言的能力，考生的任務(wù)就是找出句子成分間的邏輯關(guān)系，并選擇一個(gè)合理且必然的選項(xiàng)。

　　句子成分間的邏輯關(guān)系對(duì)解題起著至關(guān)重要的作用，它們常常由一些明顯的關(guān)鍵詞提示。

　　最重要的幾種邏輯關(guān)系：

　　因果關(guān)系：because, in that, for, therefore, thus, accordingly, consequently, hence, given, so…that, so…as to, when…then, as long as, in order to……

　　轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系：albeit, but, although, despite, however, in spite of, nevertheless, notwithstanding, while, whatever, regardless, even though, even if, yet……

　　對(duì)比關(guān)系：in contrast, on the contrary, far from, on the other hand, rather than, instead of, not…but, paradoxically, ironically, surprisingly, unexpectedly……另外還有時(shí)間的不同體現(xiàn)相反的關(guān)系等等

　　填空題的句子常出現(xiàn)陌生的專業(yè)術(shù)語，晦澀的思想觀點(diǎn)等，但對(duì)解題并不構(gòu)成真正的障礙。因?yàn)轭}目本身往往提供了足夠的內(nèi)容的重復(fù)線索幫助你找到正確的答案。

　　e.g.

　　Melodramas, which presented stark oppositions between innocence and criminality, virtue and corruption, good and evil, were popular precisely because they offered the audience a world _____ of _____.

　　A. bereft theatricality

　　B. composed adversity

　　C. full circumstantiality

　　D. deprived polarity

　　E. devoid neutrality

　　題目的主干要我們填Melodramas提供給觀眾一個(gè)怎樣的世界，同時(shí)又告訴我們它們表現(xiàn)了無辜與罪惡，美德與墮落之間的刻板對(duì)立，所以我們不需要知道Melodramas是什么東東就可以判斷它們提供給觀眾的是一個(gè)刻板對(duì)立的世界，五個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有E選項(xiàng)“全無中立的世界”表達(dá)了這個(gè)意思。

　　The new biol**ical psychiatry does not deny the contributing role of psychol**ical factors in mental illnesses, but posits that these factors may act as a catalyst on existing physiol**ical conditions and _____ such illnesses.

　　A. disguise B. impede C. constrain D. precipitate E. consummate

　　這道題粗看起來內(nèi)容十分專業(yè)，空格要求填factors 對(duì)such illnesses 有什么樣的動(dòng)作。其實(shí)句子中有一個(gè)明確的重復(fù)線索，factors 起到了一個(gè)催化劑的作用，所以空格中填入一個(gè)表達(dá)催化意思的詞語，就一定是正確選項(xiàng)。表示催化的感覺的詞只有D項(xiàng)：precipitate。
