  为了帮助考生们更好地复习GMAT考试,澳际小编为各位考生整理了GMAT阅读理解的六种常见问题介绍,供考生们参考使用。

  1. Questions that ask about the main idea of a passage

  Each reading comprehension passage in the GMAT is a unified whole—that is, the individual sentences and paragraphs support and develop one main idea or central point. Sometimes you will be told the central point in the passage itself, and sometimes it will be necessary for you to determine the central point from the overall organization or development of the passage. You may be asked in this kind of question to recognize a correct restatement, or paraphrase, of the main idea of the passage; or to identify the author’s primary purpose, or objective, in writing the passage; or to assign a title that summarizes brily and pointedly the main idea developed in the passage.

  1. 关于文章的中心思想(主题题)

  GMAT中的每一篇阅读文章都是浑然一体的,也就是说,每一个句子和段落都支持或者展开同一个主题,或者叫一个中心思想。有时文章会告诉你主题是什么,有时则需要你从整篇文章的组织和铺陈去推定中心思想。主题题可能会要求你识别有关文章主题的一个正确陈述或者解释,也可能要求你鉴别作者写这篇文章的主要意图或者目的,还可能要求你给文章冠一个简明扼要地概括了文章所演绎内容的中心思想的标题。

  2. Questions that ask about the supporting ideas presented in a passage

  These questions measure your ability to comprehend the supporting ideas in a passage and to differentiate those supporting ideas from the main idea. The question also measure your ability to differentiate ideas that are explicitly stated

  in a passage from ideas that are implied by the author but are not explicitly stated. You may be asked about facts cited in a passage, or about the specific content of arguments presented by the author in support of his or her views, or about descriptive details used to support or elaborate on the main idea. Whereas questions about the main idea ask you to determine the meaning of a passage as a whole, questions about supporting ideas ask you to determine the meanings of individual sentences and paragraphs that contribute to the meaning of the passage as a whole. One way to think about these questions is to see them as questions asking for the main point of one small part of the passage.>

  2. 关于文中的论点(观点题)

  观点题测试你理解文中的论点和把支撑主题的论点与主题区分开来的能力。观点题也测试你区分作者在文中明确陈述的观点和在文中间接表达而不是直接陈述的观点的能力。

  观点题可能会问到文中引用的事实,作者用来支持自己观点的论据的细枝末节,或者用来支持或阐述中心思想的描述性细节。

  主题题要求你推断整篇文章的主题,而观点题则要求你确定对主题做出贡献的单独句子或段落的含义。

  一种解题思路是把观点题看作要求归纳文章的某一小部分的中心思想。

  类比题测试你区分作者所阐述的情形或观点和与之相应的情形或观点之间的关系的能力。

  类比题可能要求你找出一个假设的情形,这个情形与文中阐述的情形相似,相对应或者可比较;或者要求你把文中阐述的观点适用于一个作者没有提到过的情形;或者要求你根据文中的阐述识别作者可能赞成或者反对的观点。

  与推断题不同,类比题使用的是文中没有的观点或情形。题中的观点或情形类似于并且对应于文中提到的观点或情形。

  因此,要回答这类问题,你要做的不能仅限于回忆你所读到的。你必须深刻认识到文中表述的观点或情形的实质属性,这样当它们以不同的词语的形式出现在完全陌生的环境中时你就可以迅速把它们识别出来。

  5. Questions that ask about the logical structure of a passage

  These questions ask you to analyze and evaluate the organization and the logic of a passage. They may ask how a passage is constructed: for instance, does it dine, does it compare or contrast, does it present a new idea, does it rute an idea? They may also ask how the author persuades readers to accept his or her assertions, or about the reason behind the author’s use of any particular supporting detail. You may also be asked to identify assumptions that the author is making , to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the author’s arguments, or to recognize appropriate counterarguments. These questions measure your ability not only to comprehend a passage but to evaluate it critically. However, it is important for you to realize that these questions do not rely on any kind of formal logic, nor do they require that you be familiar with specific terms of logic or argumentation. You can answer these questions using only the information in the passage and carul reasoning.

  5.关于文章的逻辑结构(结构题)

  结构题要求你分析和评价文章的组织和逻辑。

  结构题可能会问到一篇文章是如何构造的。例如,哪里在定义;哪里在进行比较和对照;哪里在表达新观点;哪里在反驳一个观点。

  结构题也可能会问到作者是如何说服读者接受自己的主张的,或者作者使用某个特别的支撑细节的原因。

  结构题还可能要求你识别作者所做的假设,或者要求你评估作者的论证的力度和缺陷,或者要求你找出合适的驳论。

  结构题不仅测试你理解文章的能力,还测试你准确地评价文章的能力。

  然而,对你来说非常重要的是你必须明白,这类问题既不需要你依赖于任何规整的逻辑,也不需要你熟悉逻辑和论证方面的专门术语。你回答这些问题,只需要用到文中所提到的信息并进行仔细的推理。

  6. Questions that ask about the style and tone of a passage

  These questions ask about the language of a passage and about the ideas in a passage that may be expressed through its language. You may be asked to deduce the author’s attitude toward an idea, a fact, or a situation from the words that he or she uses to describe it. You may also be asked to select a word that accurately describes the tone of a passage—for instance, "critical," "questioning," "objective," or "enthusiastic." To answer this type of question, you will have to consider the language of the passage as a whole: it takes more than one pointed critical word to make the tone of an entire passage “critical.” Sometimes, these questions ask what audience the passage was probably intended for or what type of publication it probably appeared in. Style and tone questions may apply to one small part of the passage or to the passage as a whole. To answer them, you must ask yourself what meanings are contained in the words of a passage beyond their literal meanings. Were such words selected because of their emotional content, or because a particular audience would expect to hear them? Remember, these questions measure your ability to discern meaning expressed by the author through his or her choice of word.

  6. 关于文章的风格和基调(态度题)

  态度题主要涉及文章使用的语言和作者通过这些语言所表达出的态度。

  态度题可能要求你从作者的态度演绎出一个观点,一个事实,或者一个情形;也可能要求你选择一个准确描述文章基调的词语——例如,“批评”,“质疑”,“客观”,或者“满腔热情”。要回答这类问题,你必须把文章看作一个整体——文章通常使用好几个尖锐的批评词汇就会铸就整篇文章的“批评”基调。

  有时,态度题也会问到哪些人可能是文章的读者,或者文章可能出现在哪种出版物中。态度题既可能针对文章的一小部分也可能针对整篇文章。要回答这类问题,你必须问自己一个问题——那些隐藏在字里行间超越文章字面含义的意思到底是什么。作者使用这些词语是因为它们的感情色彩,还是因为有一群特别的读者期望读到它们?

  记住,态度题测试的是你区分作者通过使用不同的词来表达不同感情色彩的能力。

  以上就是GMAT阅读理解的六种常见问题介绍的详细内容,考生可针对文中介绍的方法进行有针对性的备考。最后,预祝大家在GMAT考试中取得好成绩!
