such a coincidence could be _ only by the transfer of DNA between the two systems.A. manufacture. accomplished B. reveal. repeated C. exhibit. determinedD. share. explained E. maintain. contradicted下半句的such a coincidence说明第一空格的动词填入后应体现为是一种巧合，两个看不懂是什么的、只知道是不一样的东西(非相关专业的绝大部分学生是不太可能认识mitochondria和chloroplasts这两个词的)怎样了一个长的、可以认为是一模一样的DNA序列就是一个巧合呢?当然只有D的 share表示了这个意思。Laws do not ensure social order since laws can always be _ , which makes them _ unless the authorities have the will and the power to detect and punish wrongdoing.A. contested. provisional B. circumvented. antiquated C. repealed. vulnerableD. violated. ineffective E. modified. unstableWhich指代逗号前面的那句话，也就是“法律不保障社会秩序”，这就使得法律怎样呢?当然只有D选项的ineffective符合句意。-key-pagebreak-对于含义晦涩的句子，判断语气或感情色彩是有效地解决方法，有时候甚至是唯一的方法Johnson never _ to ignore the standards of decent conduct mandated by company policy if _ compliance with instructions from his superiors enabled him to do so, whatever the effects on his subordinates.A. deigned. tacit B. attempted. halfhearted C. intended. directD. scrupled. literal E. wished. feigned这句话对于英语阅读能力较差的学生来说，通过正常的阅读理解来做还是有些难度的。但是如果注意到whatever the effects on his subordinates(无论对下级产生什么影响)的语气，就可以判断第一空格填入后应表示johnson干的不是什么好事，唯一符合这一判断的是D选项。Ironically, the party leaders encountered no greater _ their efforts to build a progressive party than the _ of the progressives already elected to the legislature.A. support for. advocacy B. threat to. promise C. benefit from. successD. obstacle to. resistance E. praise for. reputation如果知道encounter的正确用法，就可以判断第一空格应填入一个负面色彩的词，这样就轻松排除了A、C、E三个选项，结合后面的意思来看，只能选D。Although _ is usually thought to spring from regret for having done something wrong, it may be that its originis the realization that ones own nature is irremediably _.A. contrition. resilient B. certitude. confident C.skepticism. innocentD. remorse. flawed E. resignation. frivolous第二空格被副词irremediably(不可救药地)修饰，根据这个词带出的语气可以判断第二空格应填入一个负面色彩的词，符合这一判断的只有D、 E两个选项。第一空格remorse的意思完全地对应“regret for having done something wrong”，故选D。Any language is a conspiracy against experience in the sense that it is a collective attempt to _ experience by reducing it into discrete parcels.A. extrapolate B. transcribe C. complicate D. amplify E. manage这句话如果没有看过相关背景的书籍几乎是不可理解的，但是我们可以通过语气和感情色彩的判断来排除错误的选项，最终剩下一个看不出错的选项，也就是正确选项了。因为语言是对抗经验的阴谋(conspiracy against)，所以空格应填入一个负面色彩的动作，只有C选项(使复杂化、使变得麻烦)和E选项(manage除了中性的经营管理之外，还可以表示负面的操纵控制)符合这一判断。结合方式状语by reducing(减少、分解、简化)来看，C选项应被排除，最后剩下仍然看不懂句意的E选项就对了。推理判断时注意避免发散思维Natural selection tends to eliminate genes that cause inherited diseases, acting most strongly against the most severe diseases; consequently, hereditary diseases that are _ would be expected to be very _, but, surprisingly, they are not.A. lethal. rare B. untreated. dangerous C. unusual. refractoryD. new. perplexing E. widespread. acute根据consequently提示的上下因果关系我们可以判断第一空格应填入severe的同义或反义，表示严重或不严重的词只有A选项。B选项表示未曾治疗的，D不用说了。C、E两个选项其实和是否严重没有关系，很多时候干扰选项的设置上利用了我们的习惯思维不缜密的、容易想当然的弱点。很多人会认为不寻常的、很少见的疾病就是严重的，寻常的、随处可见的疾病就是不严重的。但是只要稍微想一下就知道这里面没有任何必然的关系。Although _, almost self-effacing in his private life, he displays in his plays and essays a strong _ publicity and controversy.A. conventional. interest in B. monotonous. reliance on C. shy. aversion towardD. retiring. penchant for E. evasive. impatience with第二空格根据转折关系显然只能选A、D两个选项，第一空格会有很多人觉得A选项可以选，因为觉得传统的人就是不喜欢抛头露面的，不喜欢与人争吵的。同样只要想想就该知道这里面没有任何必然的关系，并且即便我们中国传统的人真是这样，这里也没说他是中国人。这种干扰选项的设置路数和上一道题的感觉是完全一样的。Considering how long she had yearned to see Italy, her first reaction was curiously _.A. meditative B. tepid C. categorical D. unoriginal E. insightful干扰选项的设置和上两道题完全一样，A选项的沉思冥想并不表示她所应具有的高兴振奋的态度的相反，正确选项应为B选项(微温的，缺乏热情或激情的)，直接表明了与兴奋激动的态度的相反特征。ETS总是倾向于把词义的对应上最为直接的、形同废话的选项设为正确选项The hierarchy of medical occupations is in many ways a _ system; its strata remain _ and the practitioners in them have very little vertical mobility.A. health. skilled B. delivery. basic C. regimental. flexibleD. training. inferior E. caste. intact医疗职业的等级(hierarchy)在许多方面是一个等级体系(caste system)The natural balance between prey and predator has been increasingly _, most frequently by human intervention.A. celebrated B. predicted C. observed D. disturbed E. questioned被掠食者和掠食者之间的自然平衡被人类的干扰(intervention)干扰(disturbed)了Poes _ reviews of contemporary fiction, which often find great merit in otherwise _ literary gems, must make us respect his critical judgment in addition to his well-known literary talent.A. thorough. completed B. petulant. unpopular C. insightful. unappreciatedD. enthusiastic. acclaimed E. harsh. undeserving爱伦坡有判断力的(insightful)现代小说评论使得我们佩服他的判断力(critical judgment)Aptly enough, this work so imbued with the notion of changing times and styles has been constantly _ over the years, thereby reflecting its own mutability.A.appreciated B. emulated C. criticized D. revised E. reprinted十分恰当的是，这部充满了变迁(changing)的时代、变迁的风格的作品多年以来一直被改变(revise)，从而反映了它自身的可变性(mutability)以上就是为大家整理的GRE填空结合实例讲解解题技巧，希望能对各位同学的备考有所帮助。GRE考试填空常考模拟试题及答案Despite the _ of many of their colleagues, some scholars have begun to emphasize "pop culture" as a key for deciphering the myths , hopes , and fears of contemporary society.A antipathyB discernmentC pedantryD skepticismE enthusiasmF curiosity选AD翻译：一些学者开始强调“流行文化”作为一种解读传说，希望和恐惧等当代社会现象的关键，尽管他们的很多同行对此持反感/怀疑态度。antipathy 反感、厌恶(的态度或对象)discernment 洞察力pedantry 墨守成规、迂腐(的特点或行为)despite 指示让步转折两拨人：一伙是句子的主语some scholars，他们对流行文化的态度是强调、视为关键;另一伙人是他们的同行，态度让我们选。两种态度构成让步转折。GRE考试填空常考模拟试题及答案As for the alleged value of expert opinion , one need only consult government records to see strong evidence of the _ of such opinions in many fields.A complexityB failureC uniquenessD successE excitement选B翻译：至于专家意见的所谓的价值，任何人只要翻翻政府记录就会发现，它们在很多领域都相当不靠谱。only引导的条件关系。as for 关于，至于，说到alleged 所谓的，questionably true or of a specified kind(韦氏大学词典)consult 查询本题结构简单，重点在于通过alleged和only判断情感色彩，“所谓的”价值隐含作者对专家意见价值的负评价，onlyto see strong evidence 显示出这种评价的证据是显而易见的(排除了AC等模棱两可的选项)，直接选出来是B失败。GRE考试填空常考模拟试题及答案Walpoles art collection was huge and fascinating , and his novel The Castle of Otranto was never out of print ;
