GMAT考試掌握經驗是很重要的,比如大家在備考GMAT閱讀的時候。有經驗的考生能在短時間內就把一個句子剖析清楚,而基礎不好的同學可能花費的時間比較多。

GMAT英語題的閱讀技巧

就我而言,在GMAT考試閱讀中最最害怕的就是多重修飾,這種結構實在是非常的討厭,本來我們是連詞成句,連句成段,但是這種GMAT閱讀結構確把大量的'資訊用名詞抽像起來,把本來應該是句子的內容放到了短語裡。

例如下邊這兩個句子;

Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on theirinterpersonal ties

三個定語修飾exchange,再加上前邊的consists of更是讓人眼花繚亂。但是這個句子本身是簡單的,因為他的內容簡單。

But last year the UK government abandoned plans to limit the tax relief given to those who donate to charity after an outcry from universities, the arts sector and charities. It had said it wanted to clamp down on tax avoiders.

你能一下子判定清楚嗎?to limit the tax relief 修飾plans. given to 修飾relief. 更可氣的是after後邊的outcry本來應該是universityie發出的動作,它也把它變成了介詞短語加名詞這種結構。

如果你們覺得沒有難度我們再來一個句子;

No one would feel surprised at Marx’s criticism of Bakunin rejection of Engel’s characterization of Feuerbach’s thesis as foolish。

(大家看到了吧,由於它把從句壓縮成了短語,所以在結構上似乎簡單,但是要想還原出它來必須要分出邏輯,定出主謂,弄清先後,所以它反而比複雜的從句要難的多)

這句話的意思是這樣的;

No one would feel surprised at the fact that whenEngels had characterized Feuerbach ’s thesis as foolish,Bakunin rejected this characterization, and in his turn Marx criticized Bakunin for this rejection.這種壓縮和還原是有跡可尋的,但是這必須建立在我們對句子的結構有非常好的掌握上,否則我們只能是盯著一句話反覆靠”語感”了。

大家看了上面的句子還認為語法沒有用嗎?

事實上經過一個系統的訓練不外乎是為了我們能夠更加迅速的看清一個句子的結構,我們看到一個複雜的句子對它的分析幾乎是在一瞬間完成的。這需要一個語法 從簡到繁,再由繁而簡的過程。大家只要牢牢抓住主謂賓,注意中間插入成份和主句的關係,中間的成份反過來覆過去就是那幾種。

我不揣鄙陋把是怎麼看一個句子的GMAT閱讀技巧分享給大家,以期拋磚引玉。

我在PPT裡隨便做了一張圖片裡沒有辦法放進太多的例子,我從網上找了一個插入結構的例子以供大家參考,

Once upon a time, my father ate a muffin.

Interjection: My father ate the muffin, gosh darn it!
