GRE阅读中缺乏短期记忆力是个不小的问题,特别是在面对一些长篇文章时,有些同学读完后面就忘了前面,以至于不得不反复阅读浪费掉许多时间。下面小编就和大家分享全面了解GRE阅读备考要提升记忆力,希望能够帮助到大家,来欣赏一下吧。
GRE阅读备考要提升记忆力
GRE阅读备考要重点训练记忆力
之所以要求大家练好阅读记忆力,主要还是为了顺利解答GRE阅读部分各类题目。GRE阅读文章大多选自各类科学或者金融类杂志,篇幅较长,内容也比较深刻复杂,考生一遍看过往往难以留下足够的印象,之后解题如果还要返回再仔细看,往往会花费大量考试时间。众所周知GRE考试时间相当紧张,二次阅读会浪费大量时间。而如果考生能通过第一次阅读就把文章内容和结构大致记住,解题时就能更有针对性地找到问题涉及的文章内容,提升答题速度和正确率,而这种记忆能力,就是我们提到的阅读记忆力。
另外,阅读记忆力不止对阅读有用,对于一些题目较长的比如填空或者数学文字题来说也能起到很大作用。比如填空中的三空题,题目本身长度往往接近一篇短阅读,考生又需要同时兼顾三个空格中的选项保持整体意思的合理恰当,如果没有一定的记忆能力,填了这个空忘了前面或后面的一些关键要点,就很容易选错答案。数学中一些本身难度不高但文字表达特别复杂的WORD PROBLEM也是如此。总而言之,练好阅读记忆力,对于整场GRE考试的各类题型,都能起到一定的积极作用。
GRE阅读备考记忆力提升方法介绍
那么,考生如何才能培养好GRE考试需要的记忆能力呢?下面小编就为大家介绍具体步骤。
备考提升记忆力步骤1:先练限时记忆文章结构
1. 用3.5分钟读完一篇文章。
2. 在文章每段结尾,一句话概括出该段主旨。
3. 读完全文后,浏览每段主旨,做好归纳总结。
4. 提炼并确定文章整体主旨。
上述步骤能帮助考生熟悉全文,加快解题速度。
备考提升记忆力步骤2:查看实际记忆效果
1. 把刚才看过的文章翻页,暂时不去看。
2. 在纸上写下刚才的每段主旨和文章整体主旨。
检查记忆的步骤是为了测试你实际记住了文章里的多少内容,这也真是GRE阅读理解考察的能力。如果你刚开始练习的时候什么都没记住也没关系,但这个阶段请不要直接去看文章。只要尽可能把你还记得的东西写下来即可。
备考提升记忆力步骤3:直接答题进行验证
1. 现在可以把文章翻回来重新看了。
2. 如果题目涉及到具体细节,比如某段某行中有关于特定内容的描述说明等,就马上定位到文章当中的相关部分找寻答案。
3. 如果不是细节题,就直接答题。
4. 能够确定答案的情况下果断答题并继续做后面的题。
5. 不能确定答案的话再回到文章里找,但要求迅速完成。
6. 如果在上一步中无法解答题目,那么就做个标记,猜个答案然后继续做题。
GRE阅读:提速的取舍问题
GRE阅读取舍的标准是:
a)让步分句(如:带although的分句、带it is true的分句、带do的分句等)一律跳过(但是用括号括起来),只看后半个分句;
b)such as后的内容一律跳过,也用括号括起来,不过我会数数列举的个数,如果是4个,则必出题,其他个数不用管,出题了再回头看;
c)for example举例只要提炼关键词的首字母就可以了,也要括起来,重点看后面或前面的结论。
d)原因——标志词常为BECause、since——一律跳过,括起来,只看结果。比较容易被忽略的是result in和result from,遇到这两个,我在下面划横线做标记。
e)老观点只把握关键词、知道讲的是什么就行,其他一律跳过。
f)冒号后一律跳过,冒号下做标记。
g)分号后一律跳过,因为表示并列,内容和前面大体一致,分号做标记,出题的话再回来看。
现在的标准是:上面这些全看,因为速度上来了,但看这些内容时仍然是“毫无感觉”地看,可以不用担心它们会分散注意力了。
当这些内容都做标记后,文章结构就非常清楚了,哪儿是举例、哪儿是结论、哪儿是原因、哪儿是转折一目了然,定位非常容易。
我的提高阅读速度的不二法门:反复阅读已经读过的文章,5遍左右吧!慢慢地就会产生一种直觉,知道哪里略读哪里重读。
GRE阅读:法国二月革命
In February 1848 the people of Paris rose in revolt against the constitutional monarchy of Louis-Philippe. Despite the existence of excellent narrative accounts, the February Days, as this revolt is called, have been largely ignored by social historians of the past two decades. For each of the three other major insurrections in nineteenth-century Paris—July 1830, June 1848, and May 1871—there exists at least a sketch of participants’ backgrounds and an analysis, more or less rigorous, of the reasons for the occurrence of the uprisings. Only in the case of the February Revolution do we lack a useful description of participants that might characterize it in the light of what social history has taught us about the process of revolutionary mobilization. Two reasons for this relative neglect seem obvious. First, the insurrection of February has been overshadowed by that of June. The February Revolution overthrew a regime, to be sure, but met with so little resistance that it failed to generate any real sense of historical drama. Its successor, on the other hand, appeared to pit key socioeconomic groups in a life-or-death struggle and was widely seen by contemporary observers as marking a historical departure. Through their interpretations, which exert a continuing influence on our understanding of the revolutionary process, the impact of the events of June has been magnified, while, as an unintended consequence, the significance of the February insurrection has been diminished. Second, like other “successful” insurrections, the events of February failed to generate the most desirable kinds of historical records. Although the June insurrection of 1848 and the Paris Commune of 1871 would be considered watersheds of nineteenth-century French history by any standard, they also present the social historian with a signal advantage: these failed insurrections created a mass of invaluable documentation as a by-product of authorities’ efforts to search out and punish the rebels.
Quite different is the outcome of successful insurrections like those of July 1830 and February 1848. Experiences are retold, but participants typically resume their daily routines without ever recording their activities. Those who played salient roles may become the objects of highly embellished verbal accounts or in rare cases, of celebratory articles in contemporary periodicals. And it is true that the publicly acknowledged leaders of an uprising frequently write memoirs. However, such documents are likely to be highly unreliable, unrepresentative, and unsystematically preserved, especially when compared to the detailed judicial dossiers prepared for everyone arrested following a failed insurrection. As a consequence, it may prove difficult or impossible to establish for a successful revolution a comprehensive and trustworthy picture of those who participated, or to answer even the most basic questions one might pose concerning the social origins of the insurgents.
12.1. According to the passage, “a useful description of participants” (lines 11-12) exists for which of the following insurrections of nineteenth-century France?

(B) Awareness of the events necessary for a revolution to be successful
(C) Access to narratives and memoirs written by eyewitnesses of a given revolution
(D) The historical perspective provided by the passage of a considerable amount of time
(E) Knowledge of the socioeconomic backgrounds of a revolution’s participants
12.5. Which of the following can be inferred about the “detailed judicial dossiers” referred to in line 49?
(A) Information contained in the dossiers sheds light on the social origins of a revolution’s participants.
(B) The dossiers closely resemble the narratives written by the revolution’s leaders in their personal memoirs.
(C) The information that such dossiers contain is untrustworthy and unrepresentative of a revolution’s participants.
(D) Social historians prefer to avoid such dossiers whenever possible because they are excessively detailed.
(E) The February Revolution of 1848 produced more of these dossiers than did the June insurrection.
12.6. Which of the following is the most lcal objection to the claim made in lines 38-39?
(A) The February Revolution of 1848 is much less significant than the July insurrection of 1830.
(B) The backgrounds and motivations of participants in the July insurrection of 1830 have been identified, however cursorily.
(C) Even less is known about the July insurrection of 1830 than about the February Revolution of 1848.
(D) Historical records made during the July insurrection of 1830 are less reliable than those made during the May insurrection of 1871.
(E) The importance of the July insurrection of 1830 has been magnified at the expense of the significance of the February Revolution of 1848.
12.7. With which of the following statements regarding revolution would the author most likely agree?
(A) Revolutionary mobilization requires a great deal of planning by people representing disaffected groups.
(B) The objectives of the February Revolution were more radical than those of the June insurrection.
(C) The process of revolutionary mobilization varies greatly from one revolution to the next.
(D) Revolutions vary greatly in the usefulness of the historical records that they produce.
(E) As knowledge of the February Revolution increases, chances are good that its importance will eventually eclipse that of the June insurrection.
