GMAT考什么?很多人都了解過,考語文,考數(shù)學……,再具體些,考語法、考閱讀……但是也有人總會說,GMAT其實考的是邏輯。確實,邏輯是Verbal中的一個單項,官名叫做Critical Reasoning. 就是一般我們說的邏輯題。但是,GMAT考查的邏輯,不僅僅局限于邏輯題,在各種題型中,都多多少少滲透了邏輯的思考方式。 比如語法中的有些題目,通過Grammar規(guī)則,就可以直接選出了,非常簡單。 例題1 Most efforts to combat such mosquito-borne diseases like malaria and dengue have focused either on the vaccination of humans or on exterminating mosquitoes with pesticides. (A) like malaria and dengue have focused either on the vaccination of humans or on exterminating (B) like malaria and dengue have focused either on vaccinating of humans or on the extermination of (C) as malaria and dengue have focused on either vaccinating humans or on exterminating (D) as malaria and dengue have focused on either vaccinating of humans or on extermination of (E) as malaria and dengue have focused on either vaccinating humans or exterminating 展開全文句子主干:Most efforts…h(huán)ave focused either on…or on… 原句主謂一致、時態(tài)、平行方面都沒有太大問題,但是兩個點可以選出正確答案。 一是idiom。GMAT規(guī)定舉例用such as,不要用like。很多不了解這個規(guī)則的同學,就會覺得這個偏好很奇葩,但是了解的同學,則直接會忽略AB選項。二是平行結構。CDE中只有E能滿足either…or…之間的平行要求。 這個題,我們在做的時候幾乎不會太考慮句子的邏輯語義,又或者說,句意過于直白簡單,沒有人會理解不來。所以這樣的題目,語法層面就可以搞定。但還有些題目,就不這么簡單了。 例題2 Ozone, a special form of oxygen that screens out harmful ultraviolet rays, reaches high concentrations twelve miles above Earth, where it has long appeared that it was immune from human influence; we have now realized, though, that emissions of industrial chlorofluorocarbons deplete the ozone layer. (A) has long appeared that it was immune from (B) has long appeared to have been immune from (C) has long appeared as being immune to (D) had long appeared immune to (E) had long appeared that it was immune to 這個題目,有不少同學都會做錯。拋開GMAT的語法規(guī)則,其實基本的時態(tài)大家都還是知道的,這個題目中有現(xiàn)在完成時和過去完成時出現(xiàn),大家對于這兩個時態(tài)的區(qū)分就要很清楚。
