对于首次接触GMAT考试的同学来说,语法部分该如何应考呢?下面就来和大家分享一下高手为大家带来的GMAT语法备考攻略全解析,目前正在积极备战GMAT语法的同学们不妨加以参考,或许能够从中得到一些启发。
做题(考试)策略
OG上说的很清楚也足够了,我抄录如下:
1. Read the entire sentence carully. Try to understand the specific idea or relationship that the sentence should express.(逻辑意思是ETS策略的第一条啊!)
2. Since the part of the sentence that may be incorrect is underlined, concentrate on evaluating the underlined part for errors and possible corrections bore reading the answer choices.(错误部分才划线,所以对划线部分格外注意。――虽然实在,但地球人都知道。)
3. Read each answer choice carully. The first answer choice always repeats the underlined portion of the original sentence. Choose this answer if you think that the sentence is best as it stands, but only after examining all of the other choices.(要看完所有的选项――正确答案是比较出来的)
4. Try to determine how well each choice corrects whatever you consider wrong with the original sentence.(注意正确选项是如何更正原选项的错误的。)
5. Make sure that you evaluate the sentence and the choices in terms of general clarity, grammatical and idiomatic usage, economy and precision of language, and appropriateness of diction.(清晰、符合语法和习惯用法、简洁准确、措词恰当)★★★★★
6. Read the whole sentence, substituting the choice that you prer for the underlined part. A choice may be wrong because it does not fit grammatically or structurally with the rest of the sentence. Remember that some sentences will require no corrections. The answer to such a sentence should be the first answer choice.(注意划线之外的部分。)
另外,注意OG中针对SC说的WHAT IS MEASURED
Sentence correction questions test two broad aspects of language proficiency:
1. Correct expression. A correct sentence is grammatically and structurally sound. It conforms to all the rules of standard written English (for example: non-verb agreement, noun-pronoun agreement, pronoun consistency, pronoun case, and verb tense sequence). Further, a correct sentence will not have dangling, misplaced, or improperly formed modifiers, unidiomatic or inconsistent expressions, or faults in parallel construction.★★★★★
2. Effective expression. An fective sentence expresses an idea or relationship clearly and concisely as well as grammatically. This does not mean that the choice with the fewest and simplest words is necessarily the best answer. It means that there are no superfluous words or needlessly complicated expressions in the best choice.★★★★
In addition, an fective sentence uses proper diction (Diction rers to the standard dictionary meanings of words and the appropriateness of words in context.) In evaluating the diction of a sentence, you must be able to recognize whether the words are well chosen, accurate, and suitable for the context.★★★★
最后,再看一下题目的要求:
This question tests correctness and fectiveness of expression. In choosing your answer, follow the requirements of standard written English; that is, pay attention to grammar, choice of words, and sentence construction. Choose the answer that produces the most fective sentence; this answer should be clear and exact, without awkwardness, ambiguity, redundancy, or grammatical error.★★★
ETS出题的两个特点
1、ETS的辩证法学习得挺好,并在语法上体现得淋漓尽致。所以不要指望用某个通则或公理就来解决问题。一定要具体问题具体分析。(所以从这个意义上说公理是有百害而无一益啊)
好比说ETS喜欢平行结构,对应的它必然给你来一个形式上不平行的正确选项(太多了,举不胜举)。最恶毒的是这个:
396. In recent years cattle breeders have increasingly used crossbreeding, in part that their steers should acquire certain characteristics and partly because crossbreeding is said to provide hybrid vigor.
(A) in part that their steers should acquire certain characteristics
(B) in part for the acquisition of certain characteristics in their steers
(C) partly because of their steers acquiring certain characteristics
(D) partly because certain characteristics should be acquired by their steers(E)
(E) partly to acquire certain characteristics in their steers
另外:
require of sb to do sth
一会儿是对的,一会儿是错的。
cost of... to
也是一会儿是对的,一会儿是错的。
比较的助动词一会儿省略,一会儿不省。
考试时,这根弦一定要绷紧啊!要掌握ETS改错的精髓,并灵活运用。
2、ETS很注重句子的逻辑意思。(好比说比较的对等性和逻辑主语)
很多题目一旦把握了这一点,30秒之内就可搞定。但如果没有把握这一点,就陷入了万劫不复的深渊之中。最有代表性的是这个:
894. Unlike other arachnids, which have their nerve cells evenly distributed along their bodies, the scorpion’s nerve cells are clustered in its head, like a mammal’s.
(A) bodies, the scorpion’s nerve cells are clustered in its head, like a mammal’s
(B) bodies, the scorpion’s head had a cluster of nerve cells, as a mammal does
(C) body, the scorpion has a cluster of nerve cells in its head, as a mammal does
(D) body, nerve cells are clustered in the scorpion’s head, like a mammal’s(C)
(E) body, a cluster of nerve cells is in the scorpion’s head, like a mammal’s
根据可比性,30秒之内肯定可以锁定正确选项就是C。但如果这层纸没有捅破,their body留给我们的选择就只有A或B了吧?
还有很多根据逻辑主语可以锁定一个选项的例子大家自己总结吧。
所以做改错一定首先要明白句子在说什么,说的逻辑意思是否合理。这一点应该摆在第一位,不能就语法来论语法呀。
以上就是高手总结的GMAT语法备考全攻略,考生可据此作为依据,着手开始自己的GMAT语法备考工作,并在备考的过程中不断总结,提高GMAT语法的备考效率,从而在短期内提升GMAT语法的考试成绩。
