GMAT閱讀短篇文章如何保證有效得分？

在許多GMAT考生看來(lái)，比起文章篇幅長(zhǎng)生詞多句子復(fù)雜的長(zhǎng)閱讀來(lái)說(shuō)，短閱讀無(wú)疑是大家保證得分的更好選擇。的確，短閱讀因?yàn)榉N種原因給人一種看起來(lái)更簡(jiǎn)單的印象，但假如考生太過(guò)輕敵大意，想要在GMAT短閱讀中拿到高分也并非易事。

GMAT短篇閱讀才是保分重點(diǎn)題型

小編之所以要說(shuō)GMAT短閱讀保分的問(wèn)題，主要是因?yàn)槎涕喿x在考試中對(duì)比

長(zhǎng)閱讀具有以下保分優(yōu)勢(shì)：

1.短閱讀題數(shù)多耗時(shí)短ROI高

GMAT閱讀一般根據(jù)文章篇幅可以分為長(zhǎng)閱讀和短閱讀，長(zhǎng)閱讀的形式通常是一篇文章帶上3-4道題目，而篇閱讀則是每篇文章只附帶1-2道題。而從題目數(shù)量來(lái)說(shuō)，兩者的分?jǐn)?shù)是一樣的。同樣的得分，解決一道短閱讀的時(shí)間卻可能遠(yuǎn)低于長(zhǎng)閱讀，從得分效率來(lái)說(shuō)顯然短閱讀更有優(yōu)勢(shì)。只要考生能夠保證短閱讀的正確率，哪怕長(zhǎng)閱讀做得再糟糕，至少也能保證GMAT閱讀一半的得分。

2. 短閱讀文章難度低理解方便易得分

同樣是閱讀，但GMAT短閱讀在得分和時(shí)間消耗上，顯然性價(jià)比要高出長(zhǎng)閱讀不少。短閱讀的文章篇幅往往只有長(zhǎng)閱讀的一半甚至3分之1，而且難度大多低于長(zhǎng)閱讀，更容易被考生快速看懂理解，解題正確率也更高。而長(zhǎng)閱讀不僅耗時(shí)長(zhǎng)，還經(jīng)常會(huì)涉及一些學(xué)術(shù)化難度較高的文章，很多考生都會(huì)出現(xiàn)看不懂文章或者看了后面忘了前面的問(wèn)題，常�？赐暌黄�篇閱讀后還是處于似懂非懂的狀態(tài)，對(duì)于大家的閱讀技巧有很高的要求。從正確率上來(lái)說(shuō)，短閱讀顯然也更勝一籌。

GMAT短閱讀2道實(shí)例講解思路

在了解了上述短閱讀保分優(yōu)勢(shì)后，下面小編通過(guò)兩道短閱讀實(shí)例來(lái)為大家做一些解析。

例題1

Though artist Chuck Close has devoted his life to portraiture, his paintings rarely comport with that genre's traditional purpose. His early photorealist images, which are created by overlaying a grid on a photograph and painstakingly copying the image cell by cell, are, to the naked eye, nearly undifferentiable from photographs. Furthermore. Close's emphasis is on the disembodied head itself, expressionless and devoid of any overt personality. He has never acceded to commissions, relying on both his own image and his friends as models. In 1988, a collapsed spinal artery caused almost total paralysis, but Close has continued to work. His freer paintings evince a natural extension of an augmented interest in the minute grid over the total work that predated his illness. This nonprivileging of any particular part of the canvas finds its inspiration, oddly enough, in abstract expressionism, despite the apparent inconso-nance of the two techniques.

Consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.

Which of the following statements are supported by the passage?

A. Close’s portraits are so realistic that they are sometimes mistaken for photographs.

B. There are conceptual connections between Close’s later work and other, apparently dissimilar works.

C. Throughout his career as an artist, none of the portraits Close has painted have been done in exchange for money.

思路分析

這里要注意一點(diǎn)，commission在本題的意思, 并不是傭金, 而是委托的意思. 作為一個(gè)肖像畫(huà)的畫(huà)家, Chuck Close并沒(méi)有接受過(guò)其他委托, 因此的他的模特是本人或者是朋友. 而文章中并沒(méi)有說(shuō)明他的畫(huà)有沒(méi)有被賣掉, 因此C的選項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的. A之所以也是錯(cuò)誤是因?yàn)槲恼轮徽f(shuō)了是 near indifferentiable. 并沒(méi)有提到有人被畫(huà), 這里就信息混亂。

正確答案 B

例題2

The anti-foundationalist belief that there is no secure basis for knowledge was worked out philosophically in the somewhat wearisome tracts of Jacques Derrida. Difference. Derrida tells us is the idea that any attempts to discuss universal features of human nature are merely products of local standards, often serving the vested interests of the status quo, and should rightly be dismantled and critiqued. Derrida was considered the originator of a profound challenge to the history of human thought. However, a century before Derrida. Darwin's theory of natural selection had made anti-foundationalism almost an inevitable consequence. From an evolutionary point of view, our understanding of the world depends on earlier and less-developed forms of understanding; meaning is continuously referred or deferred to other terms or experiences.

The passage implies that which of the following beliefs is embraced by anti-foundationalists?

A. In many cases humans cannot be completely secure in thinking that they fully understand a given situation.

B. The meaning of an experience can best be understood outside the cultural context in which it occurs.

C. Those who are part of the status quo are best able to dismantle and critique society.

D. Derrida’s work would not have been possible without the prior ruminations of Darwin a century earlier.

E. Darwin’s faith in the status quo is sufficient grounds to develop universal truths about cultural experiences.

思路分析

作者認(rèn)為anti-f的人認(rèn)為there is no secure basis for knowledge，所以A是正確的。并且，作者認(rèn)為，D的觀點(diǎn)是關(guān)于人類本性的通性的任何說(shuō)法都是基于local standards，所以說(shuō)要想理解，就一定要基于文化背景，所以B是錯(cuò)的。C錯(cuò)誤的引用了文章的信息。至于D，盡管文章說(shuō)達(dá)爾文的理論使得Derrida的理論順理成章的正確，但是D選項(xiàng)的說(shuō)法太過(guò)于絕對(duì)。E選項(xiàng)是混淆選項(xiàng)，這個(gè)選項(xiàng)與anti-f的理論并沒(méi)有什么關(guān)系。

正確答案 A

從上述兩道短閱讀真題相信大家也不難發(fā)現(xiàn)，一篇短閱讀對(duì)應(yīng)一道題目的形式，從解題上來(lái)說(shuō)的確更為適合考生得分，大家不需要做定位細(xì)節(jié)等繁瑣工作，直接一遍看懂文章馬上就能做題，再積累一些解題技巧思路方面的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，想要保證得分難度顯然也會(huì)低于長(zhǎng)閱讀。

綜上所述，以短閱讀為切入點(diǎn)保證GMAT閱讀部分的得分，可以說(shuō)是一種相對(duì)穩(wěn)妥有效的做法。
