如何利用旧gre资料备战新gre考试.

　　2011年8月，ETS将推出全新的基于自适应机考考试形式的GRE考试，很多准备前往美国读研究生的同学不得不面临着考试备考资料不足的问题。而现有的旧gre可能已经满足不了复习要求了，其实不以为然。那么利用旧gre资料备战新gre考试如何做呢?

　　新GRE考试去掉了类比和反义词考察，填空部分除了单句题目(1-2空格)以外增加了两种形式：第一，段落填空 ( 1-N个空格 3选1);第二，单个句子六选二填空。

　　段落填空题

　　Directions:For each blank select one entry from the corresponding column of choices. Fill all blanks in the way that best completes the text.

　　1、The (i) _______ nature of classical tragedy in Athens belies the modern image of tragedy; in the modern view tragedy is austere and stripped down, its representations of ideological and emotional conflicts so superbly compressed that there’s nothing(ii)______ for time to erode.

　　第一空：

　　经典悲剧与现代悲剧，这两个词一出来，必然构成反义关系。第二句讲现代悲剧是“austere and stripped down”，那么找一个作为“朴素和坦诚”的反义词，所以第一个空选 C、multifaceted。

　　第二空：

　　所在句子是so……that结构，前面的its representation 指代的是现代悲剧，所以”nothing+空格”意思应该仍然是“朴素和坦诚”。当然由于nothing是否定词，所以空格应该选“austere” 的反义，所以第二空选 F extraneous.

　　2. It is rreshing to read a book about our planet by an author who does not allow facts to be (i)__________ by politics: well aware of the political disputes about the fects of human activities on climate and biodiversity, this author does not permit them to (ii)__________ his comprehensive description of what we know about our biosphere. He emphasizes the enormous gaps in our knowledge, the sparseness of our observations, and the (iii)__________, calling attention to the many aspects of planetary evolution that must be better understood bore we can accurately diagnose the condition of our planet.
