1.Grammar & Math

* 以下3题来自2008年1月Section 8

Q1. (S07_Q34-错误率82.24%)

Which of the following is the best versionof the underlined portion of sentence 8 (reproduced below)?

Almost all drugs go through strict testingbefore approval and failing at least once.

(A) (as it is now)

(B) approval, failing

(C) approval; failure occurring

(D) approval; they failed

(E) approval but they have failed

Q2. (S07_Q26-错误率80.92%)

(A) For any mayor of a vast metropolitanarea, an (B) understanding of current issues in all districts (C) is not only(D) desirous but also vital. (E) No error

Q3. (S07_Q35-错误率80.92%)

Which of the following is the best versionof the underlined portion of sentence14 (reproduced below)?

A scientist who finds that a hypothesis isfalse can then try to develop a new one based on the information obtained.

(A) (As it is now)

(B) A scientist, finding a hypothesis isfalse, can have tried to develop

(C) Finding a hypothesis as false, ascientist would try to develop

(D) A false hypothesis can have a scientistnow try to develop

(E) Hypotheses that are false can teach ascientist; they develop

ANSWER:

Q1: 这道语法题主要是很多同学不敢选B，认为B选项的failing表示同时发生，而根据逻辑语义又无法同时发生，所以failing是错误的，这里的failing表示的是伴随的一种状况。A选项有语法错误，C选项分号后应该是完整的句子，D选项和E选项的时态错误。

Q2: 这道题考察desirable和desirous的区别：desirous表示“渴望的”，其后加of，主语一般是人，表示某人对事物的渴望；desirable表示“值得得到的”，主语一般是物，或某件事。通过题意我们可以看出这里应该是desirable。

Q3: B. can have tried错误；C. wouldtry to错误；D. a false hypothesis做主语改变句子的逻辑意思，同时havesb do sth这个结构错误；E的they代表hypotheses，显然跟原文的意思相违背。

Q4. (Q29-错误率85.89%)

Quincy took Dan to Derek's home (A) for avisit, (B) never imagining that five years (C) would pass before (D) seeingDerek again. (E) No error

ANSWER:

Q4：这道题目考察的是meet和see用法区别，meet强调动作本身，而see强调动作的结果，这道题的题意上更多的是强调动作的过程（meet，遇见），而不是强调结果本身（see，看到）

* 以下3题来自2005年10月Section 10

Q5. (RT0510_S06_Q11-W)

Intimacy, love, and marriage are threedifferent, if interrelated, subjects.

(A) different, if interrelated, subjects

(B) interrelated subjects, being, however,different

(C) different subjects, whereas they areinterrelated

(D) different subjects when interrelated

(E) subjects that are different althoughbeing interrelated

Q6. (RT0510_S06_Q10-W)

When for the first time the United Statesimported more oil than it exported, Americans should have realized that anenergy crisis was imminent and couldhappen in the future.

(A) was imminent and could happen in thefuture

(B) could happen imminently in the future

(C) will be imminent and happening soon

(D) is an imminent thing

(E) might be imminent

Q7. (RT0510_S06_Q29-W)

The cost of (A) safely disposing of thetoxic chemicals (B) is approximately (C) five times what the company paid (D)to purchase it. (E) No error

ANSWER:

Q5：这道题考察语法改错的一个原则，即不能改变句子原来的逻辑语义，原文的if和容易错选的C选项的逻辑语义是完全不同的，所以C是不正确的；其他选项都有语法错误。

Q6：考察语法常见的重复：imminent与happen inthe future是重复的，类似的考点还有: discovery& find; annual & every year; continue & go on等，最好不要在同一个句子中出现。

Q7：典型的语法错误--代词使用：这里面的代词指的是toxic chemicals，所以应该是them。

Q8. (RT0510_S05_Q20-M)

If j. k, and n are consecutive integerssuch that 0 < j < k < n and the units(ones) digit of the product jn is9,what is the units digit of k?

(A) 0

(B) 1

(C) 2

(D) 3

(E) 4

ANSWER:

Q8：利用穷举与试错的方法一个个实验，consecutive暗示了j与n之间相差1，我们计算1*3,2*4,3*5,4*6,5*7,6*8,7*9,8*0,9*1之后发现只有9*1才满足题目条件要求，所以k的个位(unitsdigit)应该是0。

Q9. (RT0710_S05_Q25-W)

At a time (A) when interest intwentieth-century classical music (B) seems on the verge (C) to disappear, theavant-garde compositions of the 1960s and 1970s (D) manage to retain theirpopularity. (E) No error (RT0710_S05_Q25-W)

 

(1) The decade after 1937 saw considerablegrowth in the African American press in the United States.(2) Traditionally,African American newspapers had been distributed only through the mail and atnewsstands in a few large cities. (3) However, in 1938 LeRoy Brannic founded anewspaper distributorship, the Great Eastern News Corporation, in New YorkCity, without lets in cities throughout the country. (4) It was controlled andoperated entirely by African Americans. (5) Brannic&#39;s company put AfricanAmerican newspapers into wide circulation across the country. (6) Though viewedas a modem means of mass communication, newspapers in fact date back to ancientRome.

 

(7) Increased circulation brought moreincome with which African American publishers could improve production. (8) TheScott Syndicate in Atlanta, Georgia, was mass-producing 32 different newspapersby the mid-1940s.(9) Syndication offered the advantages of shared news,features, and printing, each paper still maintaining contact with its localcommunity through a small staff employed there.

 

(10) Salaries rose, and while the older,self-made men retained ownership of the newspapers. (11) College-educatedreporters began to join newspaper staffs.

 

(12) Coverage expanded. (13) Some of themore successful papers could support their own foreign correspondents.(14)Increased use of photography in the newspapers, made possible by thepurchase of expensive printing equipment, meant more work and better salariesfor African American photographers.

Q10. (RT0710_S05_Q34-W)

In context, what is the best way to dealwith sentence 10 (reproduced below)?Salaries rose, and while the older,self-made men retained ownership of the newspapers.

(A) Insert the word "had"immediately before" retained".

(B) Connect it to sentence 11 with a comma,changing "newspapers. College-educated" to" newspapers,college-educated".

(C) Switch it with sentence 11.

(D) Place it immediately before sentence 7.

(E) Change "while" to"yet".

Q11. (RT0710_S10_Q14-W)

The first emperor ofRome was Augustus, and many people think that it was Julius Caesar.

(A) and many people think that it was

(B) many people thinking

(C) not, as many people think,

(D) not what many people are thinking,

(E) but many people think it to be

Q12. (RT0710_S05_Q31-W)

In context, which of the following is thebest revision of the underlined portion of sentences 4 and 5 (reproducedbelow)?It was controlled and operated entirely by African Americans. Brannic&#39;scompany put African American newspapers into wide circulation across thecountry.

(A) It was controlled and operated entirelyby African Americans, and Brannic&#39;s company

(B) It was controlled and operated entirelyby African Americans, though Brannic&#39;s company

(C) Being controlled and operated entirelyby African Americans, it was Brannic&#39;s company that

(D) Controlled and operated entirely byAfrican Americans, Brannic&#39;s company

(E) Brannic&#39;s company, which was controlledand operated entirely by African Americans, has

ANSWER:

Q9：固定搭配"on theverge of doing sth."

Q10：这道题目非常有意思，很多同学都可以一眼看到and和while两个连词放在一个句子中，显然是错误的，所以想当然的选E，尤其是在时间非常紧张的情况下，特别容易错选；E选项只能改变句子的“语法错误”，而无法消除句子的“文法错误”，即语义逻辑有问题，显然salary rose和后面的retain ownership之间无法构成转折的关系，所以只有B才能够修改语法错误，同时也能够修改其文法错误。

Q11：as many peoplethink/assume是插入语，在OC题上也考察了很多次。

Q12：读完这个句子后，我们可以判断这两个句子最好合并成一句话，对于A和B都不对，因为即没有and所引起的并列逻辑，也没有though引起的转折逻辑。同时C的being冗余，而且E的has的时态错误，所以最终选择D。

2.Critical Reading

（阅读材料太长，童靴们可以点击文末“阅读全文”查看）

* 以下4题来自2008年1月Section 8

Q1. (Section 8-Q12 错误率91.45%)

The "European translators" mightargue that those guilty of the "crime" (line40) are likely to

(A) force ancient ideas into a modern mold

(B) encourage literary accomplishment whileneglecting traditional scholarship

(C) insist that ancient poems be read onlyin their original language

(D) treat authors with excessive reverence

(E) pursue commercial success rather thanartistic excellence

Q2. (S8-Q19 错误率86.18%)

Both Arnold (Passage 1) and Pound (Passage2) assume that a good translation captures the

(A) distinctive nature of the original poem

(B) poet&#39;s thoughts about the creativeprocess

(C) values and ideals of the poet&#39;s era

(D) sound and rhythm of the originallanguage

(E) subtleties of the poet&#39;s reasoning

Q3. (S8-Q13 错误率86.18%)

For which of the following qualities wouldthe "European translators" (line 40) most likely praise Pound&#39;sversion of "The Seafarer" (Passage 2)?

(A) Its skillful display of the beauties ofmodern English

(B) Its sensitive demonstration of theoriginal poet&#39;s genius

(C) Its faithful reproduction ofAnglo-Saxon sounds

(D) Its subtle presentation of humanemotions

(E) Its imaginative interpretation ofindividual words

Q4. (S8-Q15 错误率85.53%)

The author of Passage 2 suggests that the"wrath" (line 66) of the scholars was

(A) irrational, because it ignored Pound&#39;sgood intentions

(B) meaningless, because the scholars werenot translators

(C) inevitable, because Pound&#39;s method hadattracted considerable attention

(D) genuine, because the scholars feltpersonally insulted

(E) understandable, because Pound&#39;s claimcould be disputed

Answer:

Q1. S题，一定要回上下文，回原文我们会找到"in fact, many of us accept only literal translations because we want to givethe original authors their due. ",进行预判，答案为"givethe original authors their due"的paraphrase，采用POE（排除法）对选项进行排除.考生应该熟悉这个短语"givesbhis due"表示“给予某人应有的评价”，only的限定表示many of us认为只有通过照字面翻译才可以给予诗歌的作者公正的评价，only的出现也限定了其他的方式是不可以的，所以容易判断出D选项的excessive reverence正确的，表示过于尊重作者，因为many of us甚至认为一定要看字面的翻译来给出这些人公正的评价。

Q2. 这道题难在能否把所有的关系理清楚，特别是第一篇文章有Newman, Arnold, we, European translators, the author 1等；第二篇文章有Pound，the author 2等，所以可以列出一个表格来，然后把不同人到底是支持literal translation还是impression translation进行区分，同时对他们的原因进行总结和分析。

Q3. 这道题难点同上，我们要学会列表格，然后把不同人到底是支持literal translation还是impression translation进行区分，同时对他们的原因进行总结和分析。这样这篇文章对应的所有的题型就比较容易解决。

Q4. 这道题是经典的交叉类型的题目，问P2对wrath是什么样的看法，这道题很多同学做错的关键是没有回原文往下看，能看到line 68的“Obviously it is not”，如果能看到的话就可以发现应该选择一个positive的选项，所以只能从D和E选择，E更切合原文。做错的原因主要有些同学没有回原文，而是从全文出发，认为作者是支持pound的，所以就选择了A。

08年1月Section 2

Q5. Lines 39-43 ("On the ...play") imply that the actors (S02_Q21-Q错误率81.58%)

(A) had a good deal of professionalexperience

(B) made the author question her ownidentity

(C) would be unlikely to fool the panelists

(D) needed money more than the author did

(E) were unlike other Asian Americanperformers

Q6. In line 25, the author most likelymentions that cope pods "do their best to be transparent" in order to(S04_Q19-错误率84.87%)

(A) explain why they are luminescent

(B) account for their apparent dislike ofeating Noctiluca

(C) account for their relative abundance

(D) reinforce the point that they are moredifficult to detect than are Noctiluca

(E) indicate what makes them so successfulas predators

Q7. The experience described in Passage 2most directly suggests that the statement about the "danger" (line9Passage 1) (S04_Q11-错误率80.92%)

(A) accurately assesses the strength of acommon human impulse

(B) needlessly exaggerates the risks aperson faces among wild chimpanzees

(C) appropriately warns professionals aboutthe necessity of keeping their research current

(D) discourages overly optimistic observersfrom expecting to make new discoveries

(E) fails to consider the consequences of aflawed research methodology

ANSWER：

Q5：这道题有些同学做错，主要是在思考问题的时候没有严格的从文章的上下文出发（+5原则），而是孤立的从39-43行出发。如果看到下文他们容易辨识，那么会选C，而如果没有注意到这个层面则容易错选为E。

Q6：这种题目是一种比较特殊的题目，即虽然说是一个sentence level的题目，但是的答案需要把lines 10-40看完才会得到准确的答案。

Q7：这道交叉题的主要错误在于你要选一个选项能够跟Passage1相符合，通过第二篇文章我们确实可以看到人们在观察黑猩猩的时候确实会特别容易从自己的感情出发而不会非常理智的、中性的对待自己的观察结果，所以danger这个单词比较准确的评价人们都会有的一种冲动。

 

* 以下2题来自2008年5月Section 4& Section 9

08年5月Section 9

Q8. In line 46, "mean" mostnearly means (RT0805_S09_Q17-错误率91.36%)

(A) base

(B) dull

(C) average

(D) humble

(E) stingy

08年5月Section 4

Q9. In line 22, "carried" mostnearly means (RT0805_S04_Q08-错误率88.96%)

(A) supported

(B) transmitted

(C) extended

(D) expressed

(E) bore

ANSWER:

Q 8：D的base本身表示“卑鄙的”意思，比如abase这个单词。We are humiliated by what is powerful and ____ but awed by what ispowerful and noble. 通过填空题做题思路，but的转折作用可以看出这个空格里应该填noble的反义词，同时考虑到mean本身表示“低贱的”这个意思，所以应该选择“低贱的”这个释义。只能选择base.

词汇题解题思路：

第一步先看一下能否用“上下文逻辑”处理问题，所谓行下文逻辑，即通过类似于填空题的着眼去全句意思的完整性的基础上，通过取同取反来做题，一般这样的题目难度比较低；

第二步，如果第一步无法准确的排除四个选项从而得到答案，那么我们需要进行第二步的运算，即要顾及到被划线的单词本身，包括它的意思，它的属性（是表示结果，还是表示过程?是程度深还是浅？是表示抽象事物还是表示具体事务？）

Q9：E选项的bear，本身有表示“携带，含有”的意思

3.Verbal

* 以下4题来自2008年1月Section 8

Q1. (S02_Q03-错误率87.5%)

The attempts of epidemiologists to ------the infectious disease ultimately proved futile: as soon as they managed to-------it in one community, it would emerge somewhere else.

(A) contain . . check

(B) control . . extend

(C) eradicate . . unleash

(D) defend . . cure

(E) replicate . . monitor

Q2. (S02_Q04-错误率82.89%)

The accused affected a ------- air duringthe interview; he made no vehement protestation of innocence, just a -------denial of guilt.

(A) subdued . . scathing

(B) bombastic . . remorseful

(C) pugnacious .. terse

(D) quizzical . . loquacious

(E) nonchalant . . Perfunctory

Q3. (S08_Q04-错误率81.58%)

People did not suddenly learn to use fire,but did so slowly over time with countless advances offset by ------- periods.

(A) explosive

(B) fertile

(C) predictable

(D) contemplative

(E) regressive

(D) diversify

(E) arrest

Q5. (S02_Q05-错误率80.26%)

The award-winning novel is such -------tale that its very intricacy has a daunting effect on readers.

(A) a convoluted

(B) a culpable

(C) a succinct

(D) an enthralling

(E) a felicitous

ANSWER

Q1 这道填空题容易错的原因在于contain,check都是熟词僻意，都表示“抑制”的意思，类似的常考词汇还有: assume, appropriate, flag, volatile, table, smart, sweep,list,champion, visit, negotiate, dupe, coin, sap等.

Q2. 读完题干之后，我们可以看出两个空之间是同义词关系，同时应该是vehement的反义词，所以只能选择E选项。这道题的错误率比较高，可能是因为单词的原因。

Q3.offset by 被…抵消，所以应该选advance的反义词，只有regressive（后退的）可以满足。

Q4. 熟词僻意，arrest抑制。

Q5. its暗示取同，所以应该选intricacy的同义词，只能选A的convoluted。

* 以下2题来自2008年5月Section 7

Q6. (RT0805_S07_Q08-错误率85.28%)

The ------- of impact craters on Venussuggests that erosion may have smoothed its surface over the past billionyears.

(A) magnitude

(B) panoply

(C) spate

(D) ruggedness

(E) paucity

Q7. (RT0805_S07_Q07-错误率83.44%)

The crude animated effects -------projected images from seventeenth-century lantern slides have now beenrecognized as------- of modem film animation.

(A) complemented by .. antecedents

(B) forestalled by .. harbingers

(C) depicted in .. derivatives

(D) featured in .. replicas

(E) afforded by .. forerunners

ANSWER：

Q6：这道填空题错误比较多，更多的原因是对impactcrater（撞击坑）的不熟悉，或者对天文学知识的不熟悉，因为文后有“erosion may have smoothed its surface over the past billion years”就表明了撞击坑是很少的，所以选择paucity（低频词汇）

Q7：先从第二个空下手，只能选“先驱者”的同义词，而第一个空里面只能填afforded by，其他的选项都不适合。

* 以下2题来自2011年1月Section 3

Q8. (RT1101_S03_Q07-错误率87.76%)

The paucity of autobiographical documentsleft by the royal attendants has compelled historian Raul Salazar to ------ themotives of these courtiers from their------ rather than from any diaries orcorrespondence.

(A) stipulate .. accomplishments

(B) contemplate .. journals

(C) surmise .. deeds

(D) allege .. assertions

(E) elicit .. missives

Q9. (RT1101_S03_Q08-错误率83.67%)

The painter lamented the evanescence ofbeauty, even though she seemed in several of her works to have ------ it as itpassed and so ------ it for posterity.

(A) seized .. absolved

(B) vanquished .. perpetuated

(C) arrested .. preserved

(D) neglected .. established

(E) dispelled .. enshrined

ANSWER:

Q8：这道填空题主要难度在于文化差异以及对历史学研究的认知，第一个空大家都可以得出应该填写“推测”，所以stipulate, surmise, allege都是备选的单词，但第二个单词不太好选择，assertion比较容易排除，但是accomplishment和deeds之间应该选哪个？关键是哪个单词能够在历史学研究中和diary or correspondence构成对立，只有deeds比较适合，而accomplishment则相差太远。

Q9：这是一道典型的填空题，很多同学之所以没有做对，是因为arrest表示抑制。另外posterity表示“后代”的意思。
