　　编辑点评：新版GRE考试的考生都觉得语文部分的题难了，这主要是由于新GRE逻辑阅读部分的内容考生还是有点不习惯，或是没有准备充足。本文为大家整理一些新GRE逻辑阅读的练习题，希望考生能从平日的练习中总结规律，找到解题技巧。

　　In the past ten years, there have been several improvements in mountain-climbing equipment. These improvements have made the sport both safer and more enjoyable for experienced climbers. Despite these improvements, however, the rate of mountainclimbing injuries has doubled in the past ten years.

　　13. Which of the following, if true, best reconciles the apparent discrepancy presented in the passage?

　　Many climbers, lulled into a false sense of security, use the new equipment to attempt climbing feats of which they are not capable.

　　Some mountain-climbing injuries are caused by unforeseeable weather conditions.

　　Mountain climbing, although a dangerous sport, does not normally result in injury to the experienced climber.

　　In the past ten years there have been improvements in mountain-climbing techniques as well as in mountain-climbing equipment.

　　Although the rate of mountain-climbing injuries has increased, the rate of mountain-climbing deaths has not changed.

　　Explanation

　　In this question you are asked to identify the fact that would best reconcile the apparent discrepancy that the passage presents. The discrepancy is that despite improvements in mountain climbing equipment that have made climbing safer, the incidence of mountain-climbing injuries has greatly increased. Choice A explains how this could have happened the improvements in equipment have led climbers to attempt feats that are beyond their level of skill. Therefore, Choice A is the correct answer.

　　None of the other choices provides information that resolves the discrepancy. Neither Choice B nor Choice C relates to conditions that have changed over the relevant ten-year period. Choices D and E do relate to the relevant period. But if, as Choice D says, techniques as well as equipment have improved, that fact by itself only makes the increase in injuries more puzzling. Choice E provides more data about the consequences of climbing accidents, but doesn t suggest any explanation for the increase in injuries.
