为了更好地冲击GRE考试，我把最新模考练习给同学们分析一下，请各位同学务必把考前内容好好消化。把关系好好分清楚，其实GRE填空很简单力争做到全对。因为关系只有两种：同义重复，或反义重复，最关键的问题就是找到重复的点，以及确定题型。考前小Tips:1. 调整生物钟 9：00开始考试2. 欲善其事先利其器：电脑答题专用铅笔+绘图橡皮3. 模考冲刺按时间做题，因为有可能出现30分钟时间内做不完题的现象。在模考阶段调节好pace4. 早餐以清淡为主，+coffee/red bull/dove让自已兴奋起来。5. 心态很重要：不急噪，不慌乱；考前压力大模考成绩会有所起伏，只有稳定按照计划进行6. 认真分析模考冲刺班的题型和题目，因为是标准化考试，就意味着 the same question types and topics appear again and again接下来我来分析一下模考冲刺题目：97-11SECTION 31. What these people were waiting for would not have been apparent to others and was perhaps not very-their own minds.(A) obscure to(B) intimate to(C) illusory to(D) difficult for(E) definite in分析：and连接并列关系同义重复，我们只需要找到和空格并列的部分，apparent的同义词就OK。答案：E2.

According to one political theorist, a regime that has as its goal absolute-, without any-law or principle, has declared war on justice.(A) respectability. codification of(B) supremacy . suppression of(C) autonomy . accountability to(D) fairness . deviation from(E) responsibility . prioritization of分析：本句核心结构为 a regime has declared war on justice 条件为without，在没有什么情况下就宣布战争，所以本题为C。在不屈服于法律和原则情况下，宣战。答案： C4. Despite its -, the book deals-with a number of crucial issues.(A) optimism . cursorily(B) importance . needlessly(C) virtues . inadequately(D) novelty . strangely(E) completeness . thoroughly分析：一看逗号找谓语，以逗号为分隔点，逗号左边出现了despite 说明上下文相反，且两个空都来描述the book所以应为反义词。具有模糊反义词关系的只有C。答案：C5.

(A) temporal. benefits(B) acquired. hazards(C) somatic . disorders(D) random . deficiencies(E) typical . standards分析：一看逗号找谓语，以逗号为分隔点，逗号左边出现了although本可以根据转折关系上下文相反，但although这句线索不明朗，所以只能根据主句部分直接做题，paradoxically说明这句本身出现了矛盾。Disorientation inherent in jet lag因时差而出现迷路，显然发生了不好的事，根据paradoxically说明下边一定出现了好的一面，与好有关的选项只是benefit，所以本题答案为A。答案：A6.

If the theory is self-evidently true, as its proponents assert, then why does-it still exist among well-informed people?(A) support for(B) excitement about(C) regret for(D) resignation about(E) opposition to分析：一看逗号找谓语，以逗号为分隔点，if 条件句同义重复，但下文出现了反问，所以本题是反义重复关系，上文self-evidently true，所以下文not true.，所以本题选E。答案：E2. Although the -of cases of measles has -,researchers fear that eradication of the disease, once believed to be imminent, may not come soon.(A) occurrence. continued(B) incidence. declined(C) prediction. resumed(D) number. increased(E) study. begun分析：一看逗号找谓语，以逗号为分隔点，左边出现了although,所以上下文相反，所以下文说 eradication may not come 则上文说eradication may come 所以构成这层含义选项只有B。答案：B3. Nothing-his irresponsibility better than his- delay in sending us the items he promised weeks ago.(A) justifies. conspicuous(B) characterizes. timely(C) epitomizes. unnecessary(D) reveals. conscientious(E) conceals. inexplicable分析： nothing better than 表达最高级，所以本题想通过后面的delay来说明前面的不负责任。所以本题选C答案：C4.
