GMAT逻辑考试需要考生着重备考的知识点有哪些?以下将由备考达人为大家深入分析和讲解GMAT逻辑的基本知识点，刚刚接触GMAT逻辑考试的同学们不妨来参考一下，或许能够从中得到一些启发。

　　Common prompts for Proceed by:

　　• The argument proceeds by . . .

　　• The professor derives her conclusion by . . .

　　• The method of reasoning the argument employs is to . . .

　　• The response to the director’s argumentation is . . .

　　Bore you look at the answer:

　　1. Pinpoint the main conclusion in the passage. (Read my previous Main Point post.)

　　2. Separate the premises from everything else. After you find the main point, don’t assume that all the other statements are premises; they might include opposing viewpoints, background information, and concessions.

　　3. Then, in your own words, describe how the argument unfolds: “the author presents a recent study and then rutes the same study by showing that its sample is unrepresentative.” Avoid looking att he answers until you have forced yourself to describe the overall structure of the argument.

　　Now look for the answer that most accurately describes what you just described.

　　1. Focus on the active clause of each answer to help yourself move through the maze of the answer choices quickly.

　　2. The correct answer must describe exactly what’s happening in the passage. Make sure every word of that answer correlates with some part of the passage. In other words, translate the abstract terms into concrete terms from the passage.

　　If you pay attention to my previous posts, you might have a feeling of Déjà vu. That means you did pay attention to my discussions. Congratulations.The above steps are almost a verbatim copy of the “Role/Boldface” post. Why?Because all arguments are the same and both posts deal with the ways to present an argument. Once you know what is the premise, what is the main conclusion, and how to get from the premise to the conclusion, you pretty much understand the whole argument. GMAT CR questions are walk in the park once you figure out the logical path therein using your brain power and laser-sharp eyes.

　　The following are some sample questions which you might want to take a look at:

　　1) Whittaker: There can be no such thing as the number of medical school students who drop out bore their second year, because if they drop out, they never have a second year.

　　Hudson: By your reasoning I cannot help but become rich, because there is similarly no such thing as my dying bore my first million dollars is in the bank.

　　Hudson responds to Whittaker by

　　(A) showing that a relevantly analogous argument leads to an untenable conclusion

　　(B) citing a specific example to counter Whittaker’s general claim

　　(C) pointing out that Whittaker mistakes a necessary situation for a possible situation

　　(D) claiming that what Whittaker says cannot be true because Whittaker acts as if it were false

　　(E) showing that Whittaker’s argument relies on analyzing an extreme and unrepresentative case

　　2) Some people have been promoting a new herbal mixture as a remedy for the common cold. The mixture contains, among other things, extracts of the plants purple cone-flower and goldenseal. A cold sufferer, skeptical of the claim that the mixture is an fective cold remedy, argued, “Suppose that the mixture were an fective cold remedy. Since most people with colds wish to recover quickly, it follows that almost everybody with a cold would be using it. Therore, since there are many people who have colds but do not use the mixture, it is obviously not fective.”

　　Which one of the following most accurately describes the method of reasoning the cold sufferer uses to reach the conclusion of the argument?

　　(A) finding a claim to be false on the grounds that it would, if true, have consequences that are false

　　(B) accepting a claim on the basis of public opinion of the claim

　　(C) showing that conditions necessary to establish the truth of a claim are met

　　(D) basing a generalization on a representative group of instances

　　(E) showing that a measure claimed to be fective in achieving a certain fect would actually make achieving the fect more difficult

　　3) Many plant varieties used in industrially developed nations to improve cultivated crops come from less developed nations. No compensation is paid on the grounds that the plants used are "the common heritage of humanity." Such reasoning is, however, flawed. After all, no one suggests that coal, oil, and ores should be extracted without payment.

　　Which of the following best describes an aspect of the method used by the author in the argument above?

　　(A) The author proceeds from a number of specific observations to a tentative generalization.

　　(B) The author applies to the case under discussion facts about phenomena assumed to be similar in some relevant respect.

　　(C) A position is strengthened by showing that the opposite of that position would have logically absurd consequences.

　　(D) A line of reasoning is called into question on the grounds that it confuses cause and fect in a causal relation.

　　(E) An argument is analyzed by separating statements of fact from individual value judgments.

　　以上为大家详细介绍了GMAT逻辑考试的基本知识点，考生们可据此作为参考，通过针对性的练习来逐步掌握GMAT逻辑的备考要点，掌握解题规律，从而在GMAT考试中取得更好的成绩。
