   为帮助大家备战2015年的GRE考试,小编特在此为各位分享GRE填空——反面陈述技巧,希望能够在这个夏季中为你的复习带来一股惬意的凉爽。


  人类在用语言作出某一陈述或判断时,可采用正面陈述和反面陈述两种方式。所谓正面陈述,即是以一肯定句式作出的表述,如"He is a good person"。所谓反面陈述,即是以一否定句式再加上一个与正面内涵相反的概念作出的表述,如"He is not a bad person" 或 "It is wrong to say that he is a bad person"。很大一部分GRE填空题前后两部分是互为重复或互为说明性质的,其思路大抵均沿袭正面陈述和“否定之否定”的反面陈述这一模式。
  例 :
  The poet W. H. Auden believed that the greatest poets of his age were almost necessarily irresponsible, that the possession of great gifts ---------- the ---------- to abuse them.
  (A) negates 2 ... temptation
  (B) controls ... resolution
  (C) engenders 4 ... propensity 5
  (D) tempers ... proclivity 6
  (E) obviates 8 ... inclination 9
  〖解答〗
  本题在主句谓语动词believed后,继之以两个以that引导的宾语从句,后者以另一角度复述前者内涵。第一个宾语从句中所陈述的中心主题为irresponsible(不负责任的),带有贬义色彩,这就为第二个宾语从句提供了线索。换言之,出现在第二个宾语从句中的两处空格,应综合体现出前述的“不负责任”这一主题。在空格Ⅱ,五个选项代入后,均无不妥之处,且连同其后作为定语的动词不定式结构,都为贬义色彩。在此情况下,在空格Ⅰ,就再也不能代入任何贬义色彩的选项,否则,“负负得正”的规律会使第二个宾语从句整体上转而带上褒义色彩,故唯有中性色彩的(C) engenders为正确。其余四项代入后均致使事情朝着积极方向发展,无从与此前irresponsible这一主题谐调一致。
  〖词汇〗
  abuse: 滥用,妄用
  negate 1: 否定,取消,使无效
  resolution: 决心,决意,决定
  engender 3: 使发生,造成,招致
  propensity: 倾向,习性
