  多项选择题I (5选1)

  Multiple-choice Questions — Select One or More Answer Choices:These provide three answer choices and ask the examinee to select all that are correct; one, two or all three of the answer choices may be correct. To gain credit for these questions, the examinee must select all the correct answers, and only those; there is no credit for partially correct answers.

  Sample Multiple-choice Questions — Select One Answer Choice

  1. The passage implies which of the following about the current cost of generating electricity?

  A. It is higher than it would be if better technologies for capturing carbon dioxide were available.

  B. It is somewhat less than the cost of electricity transmission and distribution.

  C. It constitutes at most half of the delivered price of electricity.

  D. It is dwelt on by policymakers to the exclusion of other costs associated with electricity delivery.

  E. It is not fully recovered by the prices charged directly to electricity consumers.

  Answer: C

  解析:首先,我们需要找到题干文句中的定位关键词 “the current cost of generating electricity”。之后,将这个关键词定位到文章中去,发现这组定位词出现在文章当中的第二句话当中:“Currently, technology that would capture carbon dioxide emitted by power plants and sequester it harmlessly underground or undersea instead of releasing it into the atmosphere might double the cost of generating electricity.”我们发现文章的下一句话当中出现了这样的比例关系。“But because sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, delivered prices will rise less, by no more than 50 percent.”这说明“sequestration”所导致的发电成本所占的比重不超过包括传输在内的总费用(delivered prices)的二分之一。既然只有“发电”和“送电”两个过程。那么,发电的花费当然是最多只能占到二分之一了。答案C所说正是:“It constitutes at most half of the delivered price of electricity.”故选。通过这道题目,我们发现ETS在新GRE考试中沿用了传统GRE考试的解题套路。

  由于新GRE考试阅读以不想老GRE那样有较多的论据,所以一定要把每个句子梳理清楚,这对考生推断能力的提高了要求。而传统的GRE考试阅读理解当中很少涉及句子之间的逻辑关系,即考生要加强阅读训练以便更好的适应新GRE考试阅读。
