新gre官方填空官方指南例題解析14.

　　新gre填空增加了三空題型，自去年新gre改革以來更加側(cè)重基礎(chǔ)能力的考察，新gre填空三空題型更多的考察單詞的用法和精確含義，同時天空中加深了閱讀理解能力的考察，因此考生在備考gre填空時大量的閱讀訓(xùn)練也必不可少。

　　例14. (2007 Sample Test) (CEH)

　　Having displayed his art collection in a vast modernist white space in (i) ______ former warehouse, Mr. Saatchi has chosen for his new site its polar opposite, a riverside monument to civic pomposity that once housed the local government. There is nothing (ii) ______ about the new location: the building’s design is bureaucratic baroque, (iii) ______ style that is as declamatory as a task-force report and as self-regarding as a campaign speech.

　　BLANK (i) BLANK (ii) BLANK (iii)

　　(A) a decadent(D) atavistic (G) an ascetic

　　(B) a claustrophobic(E) spare (H) a grandiose

　　(C)an unprepossessing (F) pretentious (I) an understated

　　(一) 選取第一空所在部分：

　　Having displayed his art collection in a vast modernist white space in (i) ______ former warehouse, Mr. Saatchi has chosen for his new site its polar opposite, a riverside monument to civic pomposity that once housed the local government.

　　看到polar opposite，因而前后兩者之間的關(guān)系是反義，請注意在出現(xiàn)明顯反義標(biāo)志后，時間對比要讓位于明顯的反義，因而這里是一個反義結(jié)構(gòu)。故前后兩者的特點(diǎn)相反，之前的former warehouse是not pompous的。獲得更多gre考試咨詢點(diǎn)擊進(jìn)入>>>>澳際免費(fèi)咨詢顧問或聯(lián)系QQ客服：

　　選擇與自主判讀一致的詞匯填空：

　　[1]. decadent：(放縱的)characterized by or appealing to self-indulgence

　　[2]. claustrophobic：(幽閉恐懼癥的)affected with or inclined to abnormal dread of being in closed or narrow spaces

　　[3]. unprepossessing：(不顯眼的)not tending to create a favorable impression : NOT ATTRACTIVE

　　(二) 選取第二空所在部分：

　　…There is nothing (ii) ______ about the new location: the building’s design is bureaucratic baroque …

　　冒號進(jìn)行解釋說明，前后兩個分句是同義關(guān)系，但是由于否定詞語“nothing”的存在表示對相關(guān)詞語的取反，后面對于新建筑特點(diǎn)的描述，說明其特點(diǎn)是“baroque”，則前一句中對于建筑物特點(diǎn)的描述即blank(ii)為“not baroque”。

　　選擇與自主判讀一致的詞匯填空：

　　[1]. atavistic：(激進(jìn)的)recurrence in an organism of a trait or character typical of an ancestral form and usually due to genetic recombination

　　[2]. spare：(簡約)not abundant or plentiful

　　[3]. pretentious：(自命不凡的)characterized by pretension

　　(三) 選取第三空所在部分：

　　…the building’s design is bureaucratic baroque, (iii) ______ style that is as declamatory as a task-force report and as self-regarding as a campaign speech.

　　Blank(iii)所應(yīng)該填入的詞語是一個形容詞，對于style進(jìn)行修飾，style發(fā)現(xiàn)后面還有一個定語從句，因而直接選取與定語從句相同的意思即可。

　　定語從句中“as declamatory as a task-force report and as self-regarding as a campaign speech”，對于“task-force report”作為“專家組報(bào)告”，其正面特點(diǎn)是“declamatory”;對于“campaign speech”作為“競選演說”，其正面特點(diǎn)是“self-regarding”，即“concerned with oneself or one&aposs own interests”。因此說，整個定語從句都在重申某一事物的正面特征。而這座新建筑的風(fēng)格特點(diǎn)是baroque，故在blank(iii)中也可以填入baroque的同義詞。

　　選擇與自主判讀一致的詞匯填空：

　　[1]. ascetic：(簡潔的)austere in appearance, manner, or attitude

　　[2]. grandiose：(壯觀的)characterized by affectation of grandeur or splendor or by absurd exaggeration

　　[3]. understated：(低調(diào)的)avoiding obvious emphasis or embellishment

　　(四) 理解句意，看是否邏輯與語義契合：

　　過去，Mr. Saatchi在不顯眼的舊倉庫中用巨幅白色背景展示自己的藝術(shù)收藏品;但現(xiàn)在，他在一座可以充分展示裝飾華麗特性的前當(dāng)?shù)卣姆课葜姓故咀约旱氖詹仄?，這與他原來所選展地的特性完全相反。這個新的展覽地毫不低調(diào)：房屋的設(shè)計(jì)浮夸、壯麗，如同專家報(bào)告是權(quán)威的、競選演說是利己的一樣。

　　新gre填空更加注重實(shí)際運(yùn)用語言能力的考察，減少了對單詞純意義的考察，所以備考新gre填空考試的考生可以根據(jù)以上gre官方指南對三空題型的解析進(jìn)行備考。
