面對(duì)GRE閱讀如何保持注意力集中1
Even as the number of females processed through juvenile courts climbs steadily, an implicit consensus remains among scholars in criminal justice that male adolescents define the delinquency problem in the United States. We suggest two reasons why this view persists. First, female adolescents are accused primarily of victimless crimes, such as truancy, that do not involve clear-cut damage to persons or property. If committed by adults, these actions are not even considered prosecutable; if committed by juvenile males, they have traditionally been looked on leniently by the courts. Thus, ironically, the plight of female delinquents receives little scrutiny because they are accused of committing relatively minor offenses. Second, the courts have long justified so-called preventive intervention into the lives of young females viewed as antisocial with the rationale that women are especially vulnerable. Traditional stereotypes of women as the weaker and more dependent sex have led to earlier intervention and longer periods of misdirected supervision for female delinquents than for males.
17. Which of the following statements best expresses the irony pointed out by the authors in lines 13-16 of the passage?
(A) Female delinquents tend to commit victimless crimes more frequently than their male counterparts.
(B) The predicament of male delinquents receives more attention than that of females because males are accused of more serious crimes.
(C) Adults are frequently punished less severely than adolescents for committing more serious crimes.
(D) The juvenile justice system cannot correct its biases because it does not even recognize them.
(E) Although the number of female delinquents is steadily increasing, the crimes of which they are accused are not particularly serious.
18. It can be inferred from the passage that the authors believe traditional stereotypes of women to be
(A) frequently challenged
(B) persistently inexplicable
(C) potentially harmful
(D) rapidly changing
(E) habitually disregarded
19. The passage suggests that scholars in criminal justice could be criticized for which of the following?
(A) Underestimating the seriousness of juvenile crime
(B) Rationalizing the distinction made between juveniles and adults in the legal system
(C) Concerning themselves too little with the prevention of juvenile delinquency
(D) Focusing on those whose crimes have involved damage to persons or property
(E) Failing to point out injustices in the correctional system
Scattered around the globe are more than one hundred regions of volcanic activity known as hot spots (hot spot: a place in the upper mantle of the earth at which hot magma from the lower mantle upwells to melt through the crust usually in the interior of a tectonic plate to form a volcanic feature; also: a place in the crust overlying a hot spot). Unlike most volcanoes, hot spots are rarely found along the boundaries of the continental and oceanic plates that comprise the Earth’s crust; most hot spots lie deep in the interior of plates and are anchored deep in the layers of the Earth’s surface. Hot spots are also distinguished from other volcanoes by their lavas, which contain greater amounts of alkali metals than do those from volcanoes at plate margins.
In some cases, plates moving past hot spots have left trails of extinct volcanoes in much the same way that wind passing over a chimney carries off puffs of smoke. It appears that the Hawaiian Islands were created in such a manner by a single source of lava, welling up from a hot spot, over which the Pacific Ocean plate passed on a course roughly from the east toward the northwest, carrying off a line of volcanoes of increasing age. Two other Pacific island chains—the Austral Ridge and the Tuamotu Ridge—parallel the configuration of the Hawaiian chain; they are also aligned from the east toward the northwest, with the most recent volcanic activity near their eastern terminuses.
That the Pacific plate and the other plates are moving is now beyond dispute; the relative motion of the plates has been reconstructed in detail. However, the relative motion of the plates with respect to the Earth’s interior cannot be determined easily. Hot spots provide the measuring instruments for resolving the question of whether two continental plates are moving in opposite directions or whether one is stationary and the other is drifting away from it. The most compelling evidence that a continental plate is stationary is that, at some hot spots, lavas of several ages are superposed instead of being spread out in chronological sequence. Of course, reconstruction of plate motion from the tracks of hot-spot volcanoes assumes that hot spots are immobile, or nearly so. Several studies support such an assumption, including one that has shown that prominent hot spots throughout the world seem not to have moved during the past ten million years.
Beyond acting as frames of reference, hot spots apparently influence the geophysical processes that propel the plates across the globe. When a continental plate comes to rest over a hot spot, material welling up from deeper layers forms a broad dome that, as it grows, develops deep fissures. In some instances, the continental plate may rupture entirely along some of the fissures so that the hot spot initiates the formation of a new ocean. Thus, just as earlier theories have explained the mobility of the continental plates, so hot-spot activity may suggest a theory to explain their mutability.
20. The primary purpose of the passage is to
(A) describe the way in which hot spots influence the extinction of volcanoes
(B) describe and explain the formation of the oceans and continents
(C) explain how to estimate the age of lava flows from extinct volcanoes
(D) describe hot spots and explain how they appear to influence and record the motion of plates
(E) describe the formation and orientation of island chains in the Pacific Ocean
21. According to the passage, hot spots differ from most volcanoes in that hot spots
(A) can only be found near islands
(B) are active whereas all other volcanoes are extinct
(C) are situated closer to the earth’s surface
(D) can be found along the edges of the plates
(E) have greater amounts of alkali metals in their lavas
22. It can be inferred from the passage that evidence for the apparent course of the Pacific plate has been provided by the
(A) contours of the continents
(B) dimensions of ocean hot spots
(C) concurrent movement of two hot spots
(D) pattern of fissures in the ocean floor
(E) configurations of several mid-ocean island chains
23. It can be inferred from the passage that the spreading out of lavas of different ages at hot spots indicates that a
(A) hot spot is active
(B) continental plate has moved
(C) continental rupture is imminent
(D) hot spot had been moving very rapidly
(E) volcano contains large concentrations of alkali metals
24. The passage suggests which of the following about the Hawaiian Islands, the Austral Ridge, and the Tuamotu Ridge?
(A) The three chains of islands are moving eastward.
(B) All the islands in the three chains have stopped moving.
(C) The three island chains are a result of the same plate movement.
(D) The Hawaiian Islands are receding from the other two island chains at a relatively rapid rate.
(E) The Austral Ridge and the Tuamotu Ridge chains have moved closer together whereas the Hawaiian Islands have remained stationary.
25. Which of the following, if true, would best support the author’s statement that hot-spot activity may explain the mutability of continental plates?
(A) Hot spots move more rapidly than the continental and oceanic plates.
(B) Hot spots are reliable indicators of the age of continental plates.
(C) Hot spots are regions of volcanic activity found only in the interiors of the continental plates.
(D) The alignment of hot spots in the Pacific Ocean parallels the alignment of Pacific Ocean islands.
(E) The coastlines of Africa and South America suggest that they may once have constituted a single continent that ruptured along a line of hot spots.
26. The author’s argument that hot spots can be used to reconstruct the movement of continental plates is weakened by the fact that
(A) hot spots are never found at the boundaries of plates
(B) only extinct volcanoes remain after a plate moves over a hot spot
(C) lava flow patterns for all hot spots have not been shown to be the same
(D) the immobility or near immobility of hot spots has not been conclusively proven
(E) the changing configurations of islands make pinpointing the locations of hot spots difficult
27. The author's style can best be described as
(A) dramatic
(B) archaic
(C) esoteric
(D) objective
(E) humanistic
答案:17-27:BCDDEEBCEDD

31. Some have breathed sighs of relief, others, including churches, right-to-life groups and the Australian Medical Association, bitterly attacked the bill and the haste of its passage. But the tide is unlikely to turn back.
32. In Australia- where an aging population, life-extending technology and changing community attitudes have all played their part other states are going to consider making a similar law to deal with euthanasia.
33. There are, of course, exceptions. Small--minded officials, rude waiters, and ill mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US. Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.
34. We live in a society in which the medicinal and social use of substances (drugs) is pervasive: an aspirin to quiet a headache, some wine to be sociable, coffee to get going in the morning, a cigarette for the nerves.
35. Dependence is marked first by an increased tolerance, with more and more of the substance required to produce the desired effect, and then by the appearance of unpleasant with drawal symptoms when the substance is discontinued.

GRE長(zhǎng)篇閱讀為何會(huì)讓人注意力分散?
GRE閱讀的長(zhǎng)篇閱讀可以說(shuō)是最讓考生頭疼的題型之一。雖然每場(chǎng)GRE考試中一般只會(huì)出現(xiàn)1篇長(zhǎng)閱讀,但這篇閱讀連帶4道題目很多人都會(huì)放到最后再去處理。這是因?yàn)殚喿x長(zhǎng)篇文章不僅會(huì)耗費(fèi)大量時(shí)間,做對(duì)題目的可能性也比其他題型要小很多。而考生在閱讀長(zhǎng)篇文章時(shí),也常會(huì)出現(xiàn)了讀了后面忘記前面,或是讀著讀著就開(kāi)始走神很多地方都沒(méi)有看明白的情況。小編認(rèn)為這主要有2個(gè)原因,一個(gè)是文章本身難度較高,考生并不能很好的理解全文到底是在講什么。另外考生對(duì)于某些文章的話(huà)題內(nèi)容不了解也不太感興趣,因此在讀的過(guò)程中注意力就比較容易分散了。
如何保持閱讀時(shí)的專(zhuān)注狀態(tài)?
知道了長(zhǎng)篇閱讀中注意力分散的原因,接下來(lái)小編就來(lái)講講避免這類(lèi)問(wèn)題的方法。在小編看來(lái),想要提升專(zhuān)注度主要可以從這幾個(gè)方面來(lái)入手:
1. 提升短期記憶力
首先,長(zhǎng)閱讀對(duì)考生能力中的短期記憶力應(yīng)該是不小的考驗(yàn),那些剛看過(guò)的內(nèi)容轉(zhuǎn)眼就忘的同學(xué)短期記憶能力肯定是有點(diǎn)不足的,也因此才會(huì)忘記文章內(nèi)容從而迷失在其中。因此提升短期記憶力能夠幫助考生更好地從整體上看懂理解文章,能夠看懂考生的注意力當(dāng)然就會(huì)更加集中,對(duì)于一些考察文章整體大意主旨態(tài)度的題目也能夠更從容的解答。
具體的提升方法大家可以通過(guò)主動(dòng)訓(xùn)練來(lái)進(jìn)行,比如看各類(lèi)閱讀文章材料,嘗試在每閱讀完一段文字后都進(jìn)行回憶,主動(dòng)提出幾個(gè)問(wèn)題并自己解答,比如這段文字主旨是什么,作者是什么態(tài)度,用了哪些論證方法和案例等等。經(jīng)常性地進(jìn)行自我回憶總結(jié),這對(duì)于提升短期記憶力是有很大好處的。
2. 克服心理上的厭煩情緒
每個(gè)人都有自己感興趣和完全不想看的文章,而從GRE考試中閱讀文章的選材來(lái)看,小編認(rèn)為大家可能對(duì)大部分的GRE文章其實(shí)都處于一種無(wú)感或者厭煩的心態(tài)中。畢竟太過(guò)學(xué)術(shù)化專(zhuān)業(yè)性的東西受眾肯定是比較小的。無(wú)法引起閱讀興趣的文章也就更容易讓大家產(chǎn)生厭煩心態(tài),閱讀過(guò)程中開(kāi)小差注意力分散也就在所難免了。
克服厭煩情緒的練習(xí)方法也并不復(fù)雜,大家不妨先根據(jù)GRE考試閱讀中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)的文章題材類(lèi)型進(jìn)行分類(lèi),按照自己有興趣看,沒(méi)興趣但也不反感以及完全不想看三個(gè)類(lèi)別把這些話(huà)題都分別歸入進(jìn)去,之后再?gòu)耐耆肟撮_(kāi)始強(qiáng)迫自己去閱讀相關(guān)文章,這么做不是為了培養(yǎng)大家的閱讀興趣,而是讓考生逐步習(xí)慣這些話(huà)題內(nèi)容,至少要做到即使不想看也能硬著頭皮按照考試要求看完和正常解題的程度。能夠做到這一點(diǎn),考生對(duì)于特定題材話(huà)題文章的心理厭煩情緒就算是被克服了,考試中也就很難出現(xiàn)注意力分散的問(wèn)題了。
3. 減輕閱讀負(fù)擔(dān)減少閱讀量
這里的減少閱讀量并不是要大家減少平時(shí)的做題訓(xùn)練量,而是通過(guò)大量閱讀培養(yǎng)出一種對(duì)文章主次分類(lèi)的敏感性,通俗點(diǎn)說(shuō)就是知道哪些地方需要花心思讀哪些地方看個(gè)大概就可以。這種敏感性并非短期內(nèi)就能培養(yǎng)出來(lái),需要一定閱讀量和閱讀經(jīng)驗(yàn)的積累才能練好。但如果順利練成,那么大家在面對(duì)長(zhǎng)閱讀時(shí)就可以更有重點(diǎn)地讀取關(guān)鍵性?xún)?nèi)容,減少閱讀時(shí)間和量的消耗,避免注意力因此下滑。
總而言之,GRE閱讀中保持精神集中專(zhuān)注還是很重要的,特別是長(zhǎng)篇閱讀,如果大家能夠順利應(yīng)對(duì)這個(gè)題型,那么在GRE總分上有所突破也就不在話(huà)下了。
