GRE閱讀理解綠皮書(shū)答案及翻譯： Exercise 64

This is not to deny that the Black gospel music of the

early twentieth century differed in important ways from the

slave spirituals. Whereas spirituals were created and

disseminated in folk fashion, gospel music was composed,

published, copyrighted, and sold by professionals.

Nevertheless, improvisation remained central to gospel music.

One has only to listen to the recorded repertoire of gospel

songs to realize that Black gospel singers rarely sang a song

precisely the same way twice and never according to its exact

musical notation. They performed what jazz musicians call

"head arrangements" proceeding from their own feelings and

from the way "the spirit" moved them at the time. This

improvisatory element was reflected in the manner in which

gospel music was published. (122 words)

1.The author mentions "folk fashion" most likely in order to

(A) counter an assertion about the role of improvisation

in music created by Black people

(B) compare early gospel music with gospel music

written later in the twentieth century

(C) make a distinction between gospel music and

slave spirituals

(D) introduce a discussion about the dissemination of

slave spirituals

(E) describe a similarity between gospel music and

slave spirituals

10.Of the following sentences, which is most likely to

have immediately preceded the passage?

(A) Few composers of gospel music drew on traditions

such as the spiritual in creating their songs.

(B) Spirituals and Black gospel music were derived

from the same musical tradition.

(C) The creation and singing of spirituals, practiced by

Black Americans before the Civil War, continued

after the war.

(D) Spirituals and gospel music can be clearly

distinguished from one another.

(E) Improvisation was one of the primary characteristics

of the gospel music created by Black musicians.

B 選項(xiàng)無(wú)中生有的多了一個(gè)限定;

2. 一直說(shuō)丌同點(diǎn)，那么前一段正常來(lái)講會(huì)說(shuō)相同點(diǎn)，答案B;

GRE閱讀理解綠皮書(shū)答案及翻譯： Exercise 71

Although the development of new infrastructure (such public facilities as power plants, schools, and bridges) is usually determined by governmental planning, sometimes this development can be planned more flexible and realistically by private investors who anticipate profit from the collection of user fees…..During the economic boom of the 1980s, for example…The unwillingness of investors to finance this project does not negate the viability of privately financed roads, rather, it illustrates a virtue of private financing.

The primary purpose of the passage

(a)Build a case for increasing the development of new infrastructure

(b)Advocate an alternative to government financing of infrastructure

(c)Explain the failure of a privately financed venture

(d)Suggest the types of infrastructure most appropriate for private financing

(e)Argue against government restrictions on developing new infrastructure

首先我們需要花1分鐘左右來(lái)預(yù)覽這篇小文章。預(yù)覽的要求很簡(jiǎn)單，不要陷入我上面提到的3大誤區(qū)(完美主義、過(guò)于追求文章的理解、過(guò)于追求文章中長(zhǎng)難句的語(yǔ)法分析)，考生重點(diǎn)關(guān)注的應(yīng)該是確定信息的層次感，即確定那些信息是主要的文章觀點(diǎn)和重要考試邏輯點(diǎn)，那么信息是文中的細(xì)節(jié)例子等支持性信息。第一句中根據(jù)Although這個(gè)詞我們就知道這里是一個(gè)讓步邏輯，所以這句話(huà)應(yīng)該是重要的邏輯考點(diǎn)。第二句話(huà)根據(jù)標(biāo)志詞 “for example”考生就應(yīng)該明確這句話(huà)是相對(duì)細(xì)節(jié)例子，所以可以略讀或者跳讀。第三句話(huà)中出現(xiàn)了 “rather”這個(gè)詞就知道這里有一個(gè)明顯的轉(zhuǎn)折，那么很有可能這句話(huà)是一句作者觀點(diǎn)了，下面考生只要預(yù)測(cè)作者的觀點(diǎn)是相對(duì)正還是相對(duì)負(fù)就可以了。后面這句話(huà)中有一個(gè)明顯的 “virtue”, 這個(gè)詞是美德的意思，那么這里可以解釋為優(yōu)點(diǎn)的意思，所以作者在這里的觀點(diǎn)應(yīng)該是相對(duì)為正。所以這句話(huà)為作者的主要觀點(diǎn)，而對(duì)應(yīng)后面最有可能的題型是應(yīng)該是目的題。

下面我們來(lái)看一道題，The primary purpose of the passage，這道題是考察的是目的，所以和文章的觀點(diǎn)的直接相關(guān)，剛才考生其實(shí)已經(jīng)在最后一句話(huà)中讀到了作者的主要觀點(diǎn)virtue為相對(duì)正。

(a)Build a case for increasing the development of new infrastructure

(b)Advocate an alternative to government financing of infrastructure

(c)Explain the failure of a privately financed venture

(d)Suggest the types of infrastructure most appropriate for private financing

(e)Argue against government restrictions on developing new infrastructure

a選項(xiàng)沒(méi)有觀點(diǎn)正負(fù)給出

b選項(xiàng)有一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞advocate,這個(gè)詞對(duì)應(yīng)了文中的 “virtue”, 選項(xiàng)中的alternative to government對(duì)應(yīng)了文中的 “private financing”, 因此b是正確答案

c選項(xiàng)的觀點(diǎn)用詞是failure, 意思就是絕對(duì)反對(duì)private financing，這與文中作者觀點(diǎn)正好矛盾，所以排除

d這個(gè)選項(xiàng)沒(méi)有觀點(diǎn)正負(fù)所以

e Argue against 是反對(duì)的意思，與文中作者 “virtue” 相對(duì)正向觀點(diǎn)矛盾, 另外government restrictions與文中的 “private financing” 不對(duì)應(yīng)，因此不選。

其實(shí)總結(jié)一下可以看出，具有觀點(diǎn)相對(duì)正負(fù)的選項(xiàng)在這里正好是有3個(gè)，所以a和d這兩個(gè)沒(méi)有觀點(diǎn)相對(duì)正負(fù)的選項(xiàng)是可以不用考慮的。根據(jù)文中觀點(diǎn)的相對(duì)正負(fù)方向以及對(duì)象的確定，最終考生可以輕松確定b為正確答案。這樣其實(shí)在讀文章的時(shí)候就和后面的做題構(gòu)建成了一種觀點(diǎn)和邏輯層面的相似性，這樣可以很大程度上提高考生對(duì)于題干的理解能力并降低錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)的干擾性。這個(gè)時(shí)候我們就算第二次回歸原文的話(huà)，我們也能明確的定位并確定答案，而不是茫然于無(wú)數(shù)GRE生詞和長(zhǎng)難句中去尋找答案了。
