陈琦GRE考前冲刺班笔记 - 那些永恒的经典

发表于 讨论求助 2023-05-18 23:00:13

1、 讲义section介绍
课前:前6个section提前做,已布置。

课上:讲义呈现正确答案为什么对,比讲解错误答案为什么错有意义得多。上完课会有
生理变化,右手应该比左手肿一点。

课后:当天完成复习内容。普通新东方课是糖水,好点的是蜂蜜,我们的课是蜂王浆。
复习浓度也要高。参考前人的模范笔记,看到差距。做题全对,虽是幻觉;有幻觉总比没幻


觉好。10小时后,自信心会变得强大。


2、 Section1
题1)It is truly paradoxical that the Amazon, the lushest of all rainforests, is rooted in the most
impoverished/infertile of all soils.

解:Paradoxical(矛盾的,对立的)预示要出现反义词,在双逗号之间出现lush(茂盛、
郁郁葱葱)。抽象当成一个方程来解,方程的等号,就是paradoxical。空格是方程未知数要
解。最重要已知数是lush。所以要填出表示贫瘠的词。所有题目都要按这个套路去解释。

※一些扮演等号的形容词:ridiculous, surprising, anomalous, ironic(找反义)

.拼写、发音不管,看到这些词,就找反义。而且是词对词的反义。

单词)对立

.大脑本来就没多少内存,最多16G。讲多就死机了。

Paradoxical相反

ambivalent矛盾的,对立的 (ambi表示两者之间)

ambiguous(不确定的), ambient(周围的), ambidextrous(左右手都能用,攻守
兼备,灵巧的,同义词:dextrous)

lasting=everlasting(持久的、短暂的),windy(话多的)=long windy

老夫考试历程:老GRE考了12次,新GRE改革后2012年可以考5次实际考4次。
世界上考GRE最多的人就在你面前。考GRE像要过年一样。

Contradictory: contradict(对立、反驳,contra-:反~,Dict:说,speak。反着说。)

Contravene(违反、违背)diction(措辞),dictionary(词典),benediction(祝福,
bene-=good)

benefit,benediction,malediction(诽谤、中伤)

Vale告别:farewell,Predict(预言、预测=project)

abdicate(放弃王位,不干了,ab-=away, dic=说,ate=可能是形容词)

If动词结尾是ate,一定可以拆成前缀+词根+后缀3个部分。

不同动词一定有相应词尾,如德语en,法语有ir、er。

Belie:矛盾、对立。belying


Counter:与..矛盾、不一致。Be at odds with sth. 谁与谁不和,与..不一致、反

What he says is at odds with what he does.

Dichotomy:二分法,反义词,Incongruity:-ous

△补充3词(方程等号):

antithesis(anti-=against,对立)

apophasis(通过不声称来声称,claiming by not claiming)

如:“我不想说我是新东方最优秀的老师”。又如,日剧经典台词:“雅蠛蝶!”听不
懂的同学问旁边表情诡异的同学,他就会给你解释。.植入广告:来学日语吧
(^o^)/~

oxymoron(矛盾修饰法,如真实的谎言、令人愉悦的忧伤)。

多产的:lush茂盛的,多产的(果实、著作、孩子),fecund, productive, prolific

贫瘠的:Unproductive, infertile, barren, sterile, impoverished(poverty:贫穷)、depleted(用尽了的,贫瘠的,ple-=fill, de-=去掉)

implement(贯彻、执行), complement(补充,com-=全部),compliment(恭
维),supplement(补充)complementary(恭维的,免费的)

Plethora(过量)、dearth(稀缺)


题2)Cynics believe that people who deflect/shrug off compliments do so in order to be praised
twice.

解:A)cynics挑战人类所有的观点。找反义,寻找cynics的观点与大众的观点的对立。
对一个小姑娘说:“你长得好美呀。”小姑娘:“哪里呀。”“好美呀。”表扬了两次。一般人觉
得小姑娘很谦虚。而cynics觉得这小姑娘特别假,不接受别人的表扬是希望被表扬两次。B)
Compliment = praise说好听的,制造题目的技术门槛,出现大量的同义替换,越换越难,so
读懂必须背单词。C)Deflect/shrug off不接受,Shrug耸肩,忽略、不理会。

单词)前5个与后3个对立

关注、留意:attend heed mind advert

Advertise, advertisement(广告、显眼的、引起关注的东西)

.要背要背到底层,不要背完还不会做题。备考时要背一本名著,叫《再要你命3000》。

疏忽、不理会:Inattentive, heedless, mindless, inadvertent

※字母替换:d/t, p/b, d/s, vid-=vis-(看)【相邻字母之间可以作替换】


.把规则弄明白,想拼错都难。

忽视、不理会:Disregard, ignore, neglect, slight

※喜欢考的就是明显有同反义词的词。如termite(白蚁), arachnid(蛛形纲动物),
marsupial(有袋动物)都不需要背了。衡量一个词背不背的标准,就是有没有明显的同
反义。

.方法:一张卡片正面、背面写,每天带7、8张,100多个词。如果你带《红宝书》在
地铁上,那你就不是在看《红宝》,你是在表演行为艺术,你是希望别人看你在看你看
《红宝》。

题3)A restaurant’s menu is generally reflected in its décor(装修风格); however(反义) despite
this restaurant’s elegant(优雅的)/chic(时髦的) appearance it is pedestrian(乏味的) in
the menu it offers.

解:however,but,表现的是句对句的反义关系。However前面就是general,后面就是
individual。方程等号是however。

※4种同义替换的方式:

1)拿另一个词做替换,如appearance和décor

2)拿代词做替换

3)同个词再出现一遍

4)上义词和下义词的替换,如:“私有”和“拥有”,“水果”和“苹果”

※GRE很喜欢的外来语词就是法语词,附庸风雅。Décor,decorate。法语中er结尾的,
把er变成ate就可变英语。.植入广告:学完英语学法语,会巩固英语单词哟~

单词)

不吸引人的:Pedestrian(路人), dreary, jejune, monotonous(单调的,mono-=一个)

monologue(独白,dialogue对话), monarch(君主,arch=power,monarchy),
monochromatic, monocle(单片眼镜,-cle:spectacles眼镜,spectacles),
monopoly<垄断,一个人生产>)

stodgy, insipid, vapid, prosaic(综合体),Bland(味道温和,不吸引人),humdrum, jaded

吸引人的:absorbing, engaging, engrossing, gripping(抓住人心=arresting, snappy,与抓相
关的,就是吸引人的), intriguing(intrigue:激起兴趣,密谋、串通), involving(卷入,
吸引,involved:复杂), riveting, fascinating, mesmerizing, entrance(使着迷), pall

Ped-=foot, child


foot:Pedestrian(路人),expedite(加速,<把脚伸出去>),expedient(权宜之计,应
急手段,如新东方课后没带伞,用塑料袋套在头上。), impede,quadruped, centipede(百
足虫,percent百分比), peddle(沿街叫卖), pedestal(基座,雕像的脚)

Child:pediatrician(儿科医生),pedagogy,pedant(学究),encyclopedia(百科全书)

题4)International financial issues are typically neglected/slighted by the United States media
because they are too technical to make snappy headlines and too inaccessible to people who
lack a background in economics.

解:A)代词they指代international financial issues 。B)方程等号because表示因果关
系,它的对应关系一定是句和词之间的同向。C)and后面一定会出现省略they are。

※有三种对应关系:1)词对词,2)句对句,3)词对句

题5)While in many ways their personalities could not have been more different—she was
ebullient where he was glum, relaxed where he was awkward, garrulous where he was
laconic/taciturn(话少的)—they were surprisingly well suited.

解:A)Q:他们不能有更多的不同,是同,还是不同?上海方言:“不要太好吃!”=好
吃。B)双破折号中间的叫做插入语。插入语一般不用看,但中间有空格,一定要看。双破
折号中间出现性格对立,找反义词。C)Surprisingly一出现,就找词对词的反义。

.ETS把难的放在前面,要有对生词的忍耐力,和对自己糟糕阅读的忍耐力。你并不孤独,
比你烂的人多了去了。

广义上的反义:Ebullient热情洋溢的,glum不高兴的。※提高技术门槛。

.当你站在出题者的角度审视ETS的时候,你就会觉得题目很容易,就是ETS他爹。希
望将来做题会觉得儿子出的题好容易啊。

单词)

热情的:enthusiastic, ebullient, exuberant, effervescent(Ef-=ex-), vivacious,



Viv-=alive, revive, survive(超级能活), vivid,convivial(喜爱吃喝交际的,
con-=together,viv-=有活力。考法本质:在一起,在happy。名词:conviviality,
bogus<虚假的一团和气,如年会上下属开领导玩笑,领导心里记仇。>

※知道考法本质,考试时就谈笑风生,灰飞烟灭。《大韦氏》可帮你弄清考法,
但你读不明白,所以要读名著《再要你命三千》。



Boiling(煮沸的、热情的)、effusive(热情的fu-=flow),gush(喷涌,热情过度),exude(流出,热情),fervor

不热情的:tepic




吐槽:《红宝》翻译“微温的”?

.最悲哀的事情不是单词没背过,而是没背对。东西没背好,不怪你不勤奋,
而是怪你勤勤恳恳地看错的东西。

※小知识:美国没有白开水。只有冰水或煮咖啡沸水。连孕妇都要喝冰水。去
美国还一定要带秋裤。)



trepid(胆小的),intrepid(大胆的),torpid(冬眠的,迟缓的,不热情的=trepid,喜欢
考名词torpor<不热情>), torrid(酷热的,与冷对立:frigid极其寒冷的<《红宝》翻译
“女性性冷淡的”>,refrigerator),turbid(<搅和之后>浑浊的,搅和-turb: disturb,perturb,
turbulent),turgid(浮夸的,装饰性、炫的东西多)。



不高兴的:glum(不高兴的,glee<高兴的>:英文修辞方法:押头韵alliteration,加深
印象,新闻工作者喜在标题中使用),gloomy,melancholy,dejected, morose, saturnine, sullen

欢说“anyway”),interlocution,elocution(e-=出去,说出去,做演说的能力),eloquent(如

=magniloquent=turgid




题6)The multifaceted(多层次的,内涵丰富的) nature of classical tragedy in Athens belies the
modern image of tragedy: in the modern view tragedy is austere and stripped down, its
representations(描绘、描述) of ideological and emotional conflicts so superbly compressed(压缩的、简洁的) that there’s nothing extraneous(节外生枝的) for time to erode.

解:A)线索1:Blies与“:”都是方程式的等号,前者表示句子中一定有词对词的等号,
出现冒号,则把冒号前面的内容揉一揉放到后面空格,或者把后面内容揉一揉,放在前面空
格。Multi-=多,faceted方面。B)线索2:austere修饰文章表示朴实无华的。C)线索3:strip
脱衣服,strip down该脱的都脱了,该剥离的都剥离的,就如小学课堂上做的“缩句”练习。
也是言简意赅了。※如加拿大或美国能看到strip show。Strip与erode同义词,同义替换,
制造技术门槛,so必须背大量的词。

单词)

言简意赅、朴实无华、简朴:第一行 austere, plain, Spartan(《红宝》翻译“斯巴达”,
琦叔:“还思密达呢。”),ascetic(红宝“苦行僧”,琦叔“自制的人”)=stoic,stark(极端

the toilet,大量的<此意义来自于水>),plush(豪华的)。

.奇葩的智慧:谐音法,如book a see<不可思议>,economy<依靠农民,如中国经济>,

题7)Murray, whose show of recent paintings and drawings is her best in many years, has been
eminent hereabouts for a quarter century, although often regarded with ambivalence, but the
most successful of these paintings assuage all doubts.

※建议:三空题,如果读一遍不懂,就不要做了。全对才有分,正确概率太低。

解:方程等号:these(指示代词)这些图画,Assuage减轻,缓和。

.语法与发音,能好当然好,不能好,就在思想上加油。

单词)

成功的:eminent(=successful, imminent即将发生=impending),celebrated(celebrity名
人,celerity快,accelerate加速),distinguished(能被区分开来与大众不一样),famed(被
人注意到了),notable,prominent

减轻:assuage, moderate(减轻缓和,适度的), allay(减轻,缓和,<lay放下去就减轻
了>,alloy<混合物>, alley<小街道>), alleviate(lev-=raise,举起,有人认为大夫基本起到
的是心理医疗的作用,有时是comfort,偶尔是cure,基本上是alleviate;lever杠杆,levity,
levy征收, gravity重力,庄重,严肃),mitigate(减轻、缓和,miti-=联想mini-,temper减
轻缓和), palliate

变遭:worsen, aggravate(ap-无意义,grav-=重,ate动词,法语将ate换成er),exasperate(exacerbate, ex-=out, acer=加重),deteriorate

.接手多语种部门后,讲课成了一种享受。因为多语种工作太累,讲课是排毒过程。

题8)Far from viewing Jefferson as a skeptical but(强调) enlightened intellectual, historians of
the 1960’s portrayed him as a doctrinaire thinker, eager to fill the young with the political
orthodoxy while censoring(=deleting,删除) ideas he did not like.

解:A)线索1:方程等号:far from(缺少主语,称为“无头句”,其主语一定在逗号后
面,如historians)。B)线索2:orthodoxy。要取反的是两个形容词:skeptical 与enlightened。
同义词替换:intellectual=thinker,难词在前面,简单词在后面。描述时出现多个特征,只需


将其中一个取反。



题9)Dramatic literature often recapitulates(总结概括,提纲挈领) the history of a culture in
that it takes as its subject matter the important events(直接宾语后置) that have shaped and
guided the culture.

因果关系必定是词对句,揉巴揉巴塞进去。将“in that”后的句子揉巴揉巴塞进去。

题9为倒装。※建议:多背几个句子,脑中有模式。

1) 看不出倒装,但能看懂。——母语状态


.琦叔自吹:老夫就是这种状态。

2) 看不出倒装,也没看懂。
3) 看出倒装,句子也能看懂。
4) 看出倒装,句子没看懂。——最悲催

题10)Although the movement to preserve(维护、维持,不变) historic building is not usually
thought of as an intellectual phenomenon, it deserves mention in the history of ideas because it
launched the critique of the ideology(意识形态?bodies of ideas<满身体都是思想>思想体系)
of progress.

解:Although一定是句对句的对立。

题11)Personal sacrifice without the promise of immediate gain is an anomaly in this era when a

individual actions.

predilection(delectable令人愉悦的), penchant(enchant, trenchant), orientation(各种倾向,
环保倾向,性取向), affinity

厌恶:aversion, repugnance(pug-=hit, impugn, pugnacious好斗的), antipathy(anti-=against,
path表示不好的感情)

题12)New technologies often begin by mimicking what has gone before, and they change the
world later. Think how long it took power-using companies to recognize that with electricity they
did not need to cluster their machinery around the power source, as in the days of steam. Instead,
power could be transmitted to their processes. In that sense, many of today’s computer
networks are still in the steam age. Their full potential remains unrealized.

Mimic=mock(动词:模仿,嘲弄性模仿)


You’re mocking me.= You’re laughing at me.

emulate, simulate(模仿,模拟<演习、考试>,sting<刺>), imitate, impersonate(变成像
人一样的动作)

的, impersonate模仿=imitate, personage名人=celebrity)

buck(公鹿、反对), grouse(松鸡、抱怨=crab,别问为什么螃蟹和松鸡是一
样的), weasel(黄鼠狼、躲避)





题13)There has been much hand-writing about how unprepared American students are for
college. Graff reverses(反转、逆袭) this perspective, suggesting that colleges are unprepared
for students. In his analysis, the university culture is largely opaque to entering students because
academic culture fails to make connections to the kinds of arguments and cultural references that
students grasp. Understandably(“因此”,无转折,两句同方向,填同义词), many students view
academic life as an arcane ritual.

解:此题是一个主客体说法的颠倒。1、学校对学生..2、学生对大学..



3、 备考建议:
1) 参考资料:不用那么多书,.你以为攒龙珠啊?只要有《再要你命3000》就可以了。


有同学问,是背红宝,还是被三千?答:哼!

2) 游戏规则制定者的游戏说明一定要看。GRE考试官方指南。
3) 做真题。推荐新东方出过的1999年之前的真题白皮书。
4) 克服畏难情绪:每背一个词,都离低级趣味远了一点。


.背了之后,说话能像生活大爆炸里的Sheldon似的。

Nudge:用胳膊肘轻轻推别人使别人做事【惜字如金,珍惜生命】

Oxymoron:令人愉悦的忧伤


Apophasis:yamete

Dichotomy:独立,矛盾

this disregard for orthographical rules, Clark is never unclear.

解:Otho-:正确,orthodoxy正统思想。

5、 Section 2


题1)The narratives that vanquished(被征服的) peoples have created of their defeat have,
according to Schivelbusch, fallen into several identifiable types. In one of these, the vanquished
manage to construe(解释=explain=interpret) the victor’s triumph as the result of some spurious(假的,不光彩的) advantage, the visitors being truly inferior(卑劣) where it counts. Often
the winners collude in(密谋,默许) this interpretation, worrying about the cultural or moral
costs of their triumph and(同义重复) so giving some credence to the losers’ story.

解:

Loser=vanquished people=the vanquished

narrative=story=interpretation

第一个空格的突破就是指示代词this。

不信:doubt, skepticism, paranoid, dubious, leery(leer斜眼看)



题2)That the President manages the economy is an assumption central to the prevailing wisdom
that dominates electoral politics in the United States. As a result, presidential elections have
become referenda on the business cycle, whose fortuitous turnings are erroneously attributed to
the President. Presidents are properly accountable for their executive and legislative
performance, and certainly their actions may have profound effects on the economy. But these
effects are largely unpredictable. Unfortunately, modern political campaigns are fought on the
untenable premise that Presidents can deliberately produce precise economic results.

解:传统观点被but否定掉了。

单词)

意外的:fortuitous, incidental(incident事件,与事件相关的都有意外意思,如accidental),
unintended, unintentional(intent打算),unpremeditated(premeditate预先策划), unwitting(不

厌恶的=objectionable,objective客观的.记忆法:长的版本都招人讨厌,短的都好一点),
unimpeachable(impeach弹劾,怀疑)




题4)Having displayed his art collection in a vast modernist white space in an unprepossessing
former warehouse, Mr. Saatchi has chosen for his new site its polar OPPOA3site, a riverside
monument to civic pomposity that once housed the local government. There is nothing spare
about the new location: the building’s design is bureaucratic baroque, a grandiose style that is as
declamatory as a task-force report and as self-regarding as a campaign speech.

解:A)无头句,主语在逗号后面找。B)Opposite方程等号,前后两种特征取反。New
site后面有对应=new location。C)最明显已知数:Pomposity奢华,第一个空取其反义词:
unprepossessing(不吸引人的)。Nothing spare(多余的,节省出来的,简朴的)=
pomposity==bureaucratic=grandiose=declamatory

单词)

浮夸的、奢华的:pompous, affected,



Affect, affected, unaffected, disaffected(不满的,complain<抱怨>)
