GRE填空常见题型难题解析

例题：Certain music lovers yearn for (i)____, but when it is achieved, there is something missing; perhaps they feel uncomfortable in a world where nothing discernible is (ii)____.

Blank (i) Blank (ii)

A. novelty D. wrong

新生事物错误的

B. beauty E. visionary

美丽虚构的

C. flawlessness F. changed

完美无缺改变了的

答案：C D

分类：解释性重复

解析：分号提示前后两句为同义重复。前句提示一些音乐爱好者渴望某种状态实现，然而一旦实现又觉得不快。后句解释了此种状态。something missing对应着feel uncomfortable，则第一空所填内容正是“nothing discernible is......”，即“没有什么是第二空”=“第一空”。两空填一对反义词。C选项和D选项是唯一可能的答案组合。

翻译：一些音乐爱好者热切地盼望着音乐的完美无缺，然而一旦达成目的，他们又觉得若有所失;也许他们在一个无法辨识出任何错误的世界中会感到焦躁不安。

GRE填空难题解析：三空题型

例题：Only with the discovery of an ozone hole over Antarctica in 1985 did chemical companies finally relinquish their opposition to a ban on chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs), which destroy ozone. The discovery suggested that strong political action to halt production of CFCs might be (i)______, and fortunately, the chemical industry no longer felt compelled to oppose such action: although companies had recently (ii)______ their research into CFC substitutes, studies they had initiated years earlier had produced (iii)______ results.

Blank (i) Blank (ii) Blank (iii)

A. imminent D. corroborated G. encouraging

迫在眉睫，势在必行证实喜人的

B. imprudent E. publicized H. inconclusive

冲动，不谨慎公开试探性的

C. premature F. curtailed I. unsurprising

幼稚，不成熟减少意料中的

答案：AFG

分类：解释性重复，转折

解析：本题的前半段与Practice Book 2011版Section 4的第1题几乎完全一样。第二句话是对第一句的解释，即发现臭氧空洞导致化工企业放弃对禁令的反对、不再生产氟利昂。故第一空所填词应当表明生产氟利昂必须被禁止，A选项是正确答案。后两空所在的句子根据冒号提示，解释了“化工企业无需反对禁令”，即意味着化工企业已经找到了氟利昂的替代品，所以第三空必然填入一个正面积极的词，只有G选项最为合适。第二空根据although提示的转折，F选项表示带有消极色彩的含义，为正确答案。

翻译：只有当1985年南极洲上空发现了臭氧空洞后化工企业才最终放弃了它们对生产氟利昂的禁令的反对意见，这种物质能够破坏臭氧层。这一发现意味着用强力的政治手段阻止氟利昂的生产已经势在必行，而且幸运的是化工企业已经不再需要反对这些举措：尽管它们最近削减了对氟利昂替代品的研究，但业已启动多年的研究早已得出了喜人的结果。

GRE填空难题解析：六选二题型

例题：In American Indian art, the supposed distinction between modern and traditional was fabricated by critics, and when artists have control over interpretation of their own work, the distinction appears, happily, to have been ______.

A. eliminated 消灭

B. reinforced 增强

C. put to rest 消除

D. intensified 增强

E. recognized 承认

F. established 建立

答案：AC

分类：直接重复

解析：when提示了近似的因果，则前后两个分句的句意为同意重复。前半句称评论家捏造了一种界限，则这种界限并不存在。故后半句艺术家解释自己作品时，这种界限同样不存在。选项AC正确。happily也提示了这种感情色彩。

翻译：在美国印第安艺术中，假定存在的现代和传统的界限不过是评论家捏造的结果。而令人高兴的是，艺术家在解释他们自己的作品时，这种界限看起来消失了。
