篇1：GRE词汇积累需重视从课外读物积累
GRE词汇积累请重视从课外读物积累 这些名著不止好看还能提升词汇量
如何通过读英文原著记单词?
在GRE考试备考中对新GRE词汇要求量的记忆不可能一蹴而就，大脑要牢记单词需要接受反复的刺激。而每个作家都有其独特的风格，表现为有一套他的惯用词汇;而且一本原著的题材是一定的，某类单词必然反复使用。因此，生词在原著中都有一定的重现频率。这种频率恰恰暗合了词汇的记忆规律。
举例说明英文原著中常用词汇
狄更斯描述“客厅”、“起居室”不用living room而喜欢“parlour”。该词属于六级词汇，在《David Copperfield》第一章出现6次，第二章出现9次，全书一共出现80次。
德莱塞的《Sister Carrie》(《嘉莉妹妹》)中的四级词汇“individual”，全书总共出现64次。
荷马史诗《The Odyssey》(《奥得赛》)中的GRE词汇“libation”(另有一个翻译版本翻作“drink-offering”)出现31次，另一个GRE词汇“suitor”，全书共出现多达233次!。
阅读英文原著的后效应
查过的词反复出现，给你的大脑一次又一次刺激。生词每出现一次，都是对记忆的加深。这个过程，你自己甚至意识不到。对比陈旧的传统模式，你为了取得牢记的效果，需要将枯燥死板的词汇书反复念多少遍，反复默写多少遍。这神奇的魔法，就是后效应。
后效应可以超越一本原著。阅读了一定数量的原著以后，你会发现生词也喜欢“走穴”：那本书的生词出现在这本书中。两本书可以是风马牛不相及的，如小说与小说，小说与社科著作，甚至小说与科技著作。例如：
“bartender”(酒保)出现在《Sister Carrie》和社科著作《Winning Image》中;
“weave”(编织)的过去分词“woven”在《Jane Eyre》衍生为形容小路崎岖的“interwoven”，在《Human Anatomy》中则用来描述交织的骨小梁;
“scab”在《Sister Carrie》中指穷途末路的Hurst Wood跑去替罢工工人上班的“工贼行为”，在《Pathology》(《病理学》)里专指“伤口结的痂”;
“heyday”指“全盛时期”，在斯大林的传记《Stalin: A political biography》中多次用来描述俄国19革命的高潮;而在性科学专著《Human Sexuality: in a world of diversity》中则用来描述西方70年代“性革命”的顶峰;
“reincarnation”(转世化身，重新体现)在《哥伦布传》中用来比喻哥伦布寻找印度的航海是中世纪寻找魔法石的演变;在《Introduction to Clinical Psychology》(《临床心理学简介》)中指得是经过心理治疗，来访者脱胎换骨的状态;
后效应对背单词的帮助
有了后效应，单词的记忆从此没有了遗忘的后顾之忧——只要不停阅读，就是无休止地复习你学过的一切单词，想忘记都难。特别说明一点，你在阅读的时候，可能会碰到以前查过的词重复出现，但意思却想不起来。这属于正常现象，你可以用电子词典再查一遍但不存入生词库，也不占用那两页的查词名额。
GRE备考提升词汇量技巧
充分运用各种碎片时间记单词
GRE考生要擅于利用空余时间记GRE词汇。生活中，我们大量零散的时间都在无形之中浪费了，使用零散时间背诵GRE词汇也是不错的选择，比如等公车，等人，睡前几分钟等，每天背十来个，不知不觉词汇量就提高很多。脑子不断地想GRE高频词汇，背GRE词汇要背得好，要背得快，最基本的原则是脑子不断地想单词，让单词不断地从脑子里过，看书看10遍，还不如脑子过一遍。要做到单词在脑子里过的次数比在书本上过的次数多得多，要做到完全抛开书本，不依赖书本，不拿书的时候也在想单词、背单词。
要尽量在单词被忘记之前在脑子里过一遍，这样，它留给你的印象要深得多，就算以后忘记，也很容易记起来背GRE词汇时不要在一个单词上花的时间太多，根本不用超过一分钟，像扫描般一掠而过。只是重复的次数要多，特别在脑子里重复的次数要比在书本上重复的次数多得多。其他方法还有听音频，背单词软件等等。不时翻一翻别的单词书也挺有用，因为有新鲜感。
按照词义联想记忆词汇
刚开始时可能能建立的联系很少，但要注意培养这种意识，争取一串串地背单词，看见一个，就能想起一串。比如，同义的单词一块儿记，反义的、形似的、分类的、词根的，背GRE词汇一段时间之后，就应该看到该单词，想一想以前学过什么同义的，如果只有印象而想不起来，最好在一个笔记本上记一笔，下次碰到该单词时，特别注意。比如，背GRE词汇一段时间后，应该问自己：我一共学了多少关于衣服的词?如果你只记得中文意思，想不起英文，下次就要特别注意了。或者你看到holograph的时候是否能想起homograph?虽然有些书给你整理了一些联系，可是难道你不觉得自己总结的才会印象最深吗?
GRE词汇之间建立联系后，不拿书本的时候你也能利用这些联系不断地想GRE高频词汇。当某一个单词记不起来时，就要注意了。不妨看后面的单词时，就不断地想前面学过的单词，中有哪些类似的，或意思相反的，把有联系的单词的页数写在单词旁，每当看到这个单词时，总想起和它有关的单词，想不起时再根据页数翻看。如果有印象而想不起来，就在笔记本上记一笔，下次补上。

GRE词汇精选词汇+例句
1.derivative /d?’r?v?t?v/ adj. 模仿他人的; 衍生的; 派生的 n. 派生物, 引出物
【解词】源自derive v.源于; de-=向下，riv-=river;因此这个词的根本含义是“沿着河流缓缓向下”，即“来源于”。
【例句】a highly derivative prose style. 毫无创意的散文风格
2.ignoble /?ɡ’nobl/ adj. 卑鄙的, 可耻的;出身低微的, 地位低下的
【解词】i-=im-=not;gnob-=well-know; famous,(其实就是noble的词根解释) 因此ignoble表示“卑鄙的，可耻的”。记单词的话，也可以直接通过后面的noble记忆，会更容易些。
【例句】And you may say in your innocence, “How noble is the one and how ignoble is the other.” 你也许在无意中说出”这一个是多么高洁而那一个又是多么卑贱。”
3.accolade /‘?k?led/ n. 嘉奖;赞许
【解词】acc-=强调;col-=neck,(如collar 领子); 最初含义是将某物(花环之类的)环绕在脖子上，授予爵位。引申为“嘉奖，赞许”。
【例句】The play received accolades from the press. 这部戏受到报纸的称赞。
4.balk /b?k/ vt. 阻止;推诿;错过 n. 障碍;错误
【例句】I wanted to buy the dress, but I balked at the high price. 我本想买这件连衣裙, 但一看价钱太高就犹豫了。
5.felicitous /f?’l?s?t?s/ adj. (措词等)恰当的,贴切的
【解词】felic-=幸福的(fe-=吮吸，lic-=lure 诱惑，美好的东西，推断最初含义是孩子吮吸母亲的乳头得到幸福感)。-ous为形容词后缀，因此表示“恰当的，贴切的”。
【例句】Nationalization is a word which is neither very felicitous nor free from ambiguity. 国有化是个既不十分贴切,意义也颇含糊的用语。
6.cardinal /‘kɑrd?nl/ adj. 主要的，基本的;深红色的 n. 红衣主教
【解词】cord-=heart;心，因此cardinal 表示“核心的，主要的;红色的”。
【同根词】cordial /‘k?rd??l/ adj. 兴奋的;热忱的，诚恳的
【例句】This is a matter of cardinal significance. 这是非常重要的事。
7.checkered /‘t??k?d/ adj. 多变的
【解词】来自checker n. (用来下棋的，64格的)方格图案，棋子 vt. 使(某物)呈现方格图案或不同颜色或不同深浅的方格。

8.inflammatory /?n’fl?m?'t?ri/ adj. <贬>刺激性的;煽动性的;炎性的;发炎的

9.approbation /‘?pr?'be??n/ n. 认可;许可;批准
【解词】app-=强调;prob-=prov-=test;证明，测试;-ation为名词后缀，表示“行为、过程或结果”;因此approbation表示“去证明”，引申为“认可，许可”。
【同义词】approval /?’pruvl/ n. 赞成;批准;认可
【例句】The play received the approbation of the mass media. 这个剧本受到大众媒体的欢迎。
10.misanthrope /‘m?s?nθrop/ n. 不愿与人来往者;厌恶人类的人
【解词】mis-=错误，坏;anthrop-=human being;人类;因此misanthrope 表示“厌恶人类”。
【例句】I used to worry that my discomfort at weddings meant that I was a misanthrope. 我曾经担心我对婚礼感到不舒服会不会是因为我是个愤世嫉俗者。

1.经常brainstorm可以表达一个特定意思的单词，找尽可能多的单词。
并且制作一个自己的list，上面是以中文意思为索引的同义英文单词，并且反复通过中文意思去回想可能用于表达该意思的英文词。
2.进行meaning negotiation practice
如果你还没有掌握一个单词，你可以进行meaning negotiation practice。在学习一个单词的时候，找很多这个单词的例句，通过例句不断猜测单词的意思，直到你找到了一个可以在所有的例句中都解释的通的意思，然后再去看答案。这种方式会促使你更加注意一个词汇的context和collocation，更加有助于你对于一个单词的language network的形成。
3. 单词进行例句背诵，例句仿写
对于已经学会的单词，如果你想去回炉把它训练成一个你在写作中可以很容易使用的词汇，你可对这个单词进行例句背诵，例句仿写等学习方式。
4. 最后，多读多写
想掌握好写作的用词，你要多读多写。特别是在写作中，刻意的去模仿别人使用高级词汇的例子，最后形成自己的写作风格。
GRE写作满分范文赏析
Six months ago the region of Forestville increased the speed limit for vehicles traveling on the region's highways by ten miles per hour. Since that change took effect, the number of automobile accidents in that region has increased by 15 percent. But the speed limit in Elmsford, a region neighboring Forestville, remained unchanged, and automobile accidents declined slightly during the same six-month period. Therefore, if the citizens of Forestville want to reduce the number of
automobile accidents on the region's highways, they should campaign to reduce Forestville's speed limit to what it was before the increase.
The argument above presents a sound case for arguing that if the region of Forestville wants to reduce the number of automobile accidents on the region's highways, they should consider reducing the speed limit to what it was before the increase in speed limit took place 6 months previously. However, there are some intermediate steps that one could take before jumping to the conclusion that reducing the speed limit is the only way in which traffic accidents can be reduced.
First of all, I would examine the actual number of traffic accidents that occurred before and after the speed limit increase and compare this to the size of the region and its driving population. For example, if the Forestville region's driving population is 1 million people, and the traffic accidents for a 6-month period before the speed increase totaled 100, then the 15% increase would amount to an additional 16 traffic accidents, or 116 total. For a population of 1 million, there may be other solutions to this increase besides reducing the speed limit to what it was. (The comparison to the region of Elmsford would only be helpful if the regions driving demography is comparable in terms of size and scope.) A public education campaign emphasizing driver safety and safe driving techniques may suffice to reduce the number of traffic accidents. Especially considering that if the number of accidents relative to the population is somewhat small, it is a fairly safe driving population anyway.
In addition, I would consider lengthening the time of the study. Six months may be a relatively short period of time for which to study the rate of traffic accidents. Upon a closer examination of when the accidents occurred, one might ascertain that most of the driving accidents occurred within a month of raising the speed limit, but that there have been relatively few additional accidents since that first phase-in period. Lengthening the study to a one-year period would help adjust for any untypical statistics and paint a more accurate picture of the long-term affects of the speed limit increase.
I would also examine what else was occurring in the region during the period of the study. For example, was there a major highway construction project happening during this time which would have added to the unsafe nature of raod travel? Are there any alternative explanations for why the increase in traffic accidents could have occurred, or is the increase in speed limit the sole variable? Looking at the type of accidents that occurred, I would examine whether these are the types of car accidents one would expect from traveling at a faster speed to corroborate the cause and effect relationship. Comments:
As in the sample 6 response, this writer sees some logic in assuming a connection between the higher speed limit in Forestville and the increase in auto accidents. Unlike the sample 6 on this topic, this response is neither as exhaustive in its analysis nor as impressively developed. The writer makes four points in the critique:
-- A statistical analysis might suggest that the 15% increase in accidents is not as significant as it might seem.
-- A car safety education campaign might be a better way to solve the problem.
-- A six month period might be too short a time on which to base major conclusions.
-- Other factors could have caused the increase in accidents.
Although each of these points is developed and sensibly supported, the critique is not sufficiently full to warrant a score of 6. The essay demonstrates good control but not mastery of the elements of writing: it contains good variety in syntax, including effective use of rhetorical questions. The occasional flaws (e.g., the somewhat garbled syntax in paragraph 3: “.time for which to study the rate???”) do not detract from the overall strong quality of the critique. For all of these reasons, this response is strong but not outstanding, and thus merits a score of 5.

Six months ago the region of Forestville increased the speed limit for vehicles traveling on the region's highways by ten miles per hour. Since that change took effect, the number of automobile accidents in that region has increased by 15 percent. But the speed limit in Elmsford, a region neighboring Forestville, remained unchanged, and automobile accidents declined slightly during the same six-month period. Therefore, if the citizens of Forestville want to reduce the number of automobile accidents on the region's highways, they should campaign to reduce Forestville's speed limit to what it was before the increase.
The agrument is well-presented, but not thoroughly well-reasoned. By making a comparison of the region of Forestville, the town with the higher speed limit and therefore automobile accidents, with the region of Elmsford, an area of a lower speed limit and subsequently fewer accidents, the argument for reducing Forestville's speed limits in order to decrease accidents seems logical.
However, the citizens of Forestville are failing to consider other possible alternatives to the increasing car accidents after the raise in speed limit. Such alternatives may include the fact that there are less reliable cars traveling the roads in Forestville, or that the age bracket of those in Elmsford may be more conducive to driving safely. It is possible that there are more younger, inexperienced, or more elderly, unsafe drivers in Forestville than there are in Elmsford. In addition, the citizens have failed to consider the geographical and physical terrain of the two different areas. Perhaps Forestville's highway is in an area of more dangerous curves, sharp turns, or has many intersections or merging points where accidents are more likely to occur. It appears reasonable, therefore, for the citizens to focus on these trouble spots than to reduce the speed in the entire area. Elmsford may be an area of easier driving conditions where accidents are less likely to occur regardless of the speed limit.
A six-month period is not a particularly long time frame for the citizens to determine that speed limit has influenced the number of automobile accidents in the area. It is mentioned in the argument that Elmsford accidents decreased during the time period. This may have been a time, such as during harsh weather conditions, when less people were driving on the road and therefore the number of accidents decreased. However, Forestville citizens, perhaps coerced by employment or other requirements, were unable to avoid driving on the roads. Again, the demographics of the population are important. It is possible that Elmsford citizens do not have to travel far from work or work from their home, or do not work at all. Are there more people in Forestville than there were sic months ago? If so, there may be an increased number of accidents due to more automobiles on the road, and not due to the increased speed limits. Also in reference to the activities of the population, it is possible that Forestville inhabitants were traveling during less safe times of the day, such as early in the morning, or during twilight. Work or family habits may have encouraged citizens to drive during this time when Elmsford residents may not have been forced to do so.
Overall, the reasoning behind decreasing Forestville's speed limit back to its original seems logical as presented above since the citizens are acting in their own best interests and want to protect their safety. However, before any final decisions are made about the reduction in speed limit, the citizens and officials of Forestville should evaluate all possible alternatives and causes for the increased number of accidents over the six-month period as compared to Elmsford. Comments:
This outstanding response begins by noting that the argument is “well presented.” It then proceeds to discuss possible alternative explanations for the increase in car accidents and provides an impressively full analysis. Alternatives mentioned are that
-- the two regions might have drivers of different ages and experience; -- Forestville's topography, geography, cars, and/or roads might contribute to accidents;
-- six months might be an insufficient amount of time for determining that the speed limit is linked to the accident rate; -- demographics might play a role in auto accidents; -- population and auto density should be considered; and
-- the times of day when drivers in the two regions travel might be relevant.
The points are cogently developed and are linked in such a way as to create a logically organized critique. Transitions together with interior connections create a smoothly integrated presentation. For the most part, the writer uses language correctly and well and provides excellent variety in syntax. The minor flaws (e.g., using “less” instead of “fewer”) do not detract from the overall high quality of the critique. This is an impressive 6 paper.
