攻破新GRE逻辑阅读NO.18

　　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。

　　Our words are meaningless and cannot be distinguished from their opposites, as can be proved by an example. People think that they know the difference between the meanings of bald and having hair. Suppose an average person twenty-one years of age has N hairs on his or her head. We say that that person is not bald but has hair. But surely one hair less would make no difference, and a person with N-1 hairs on his or her head would be said to have hair. Suppose we kept on, with one hair less each time. The result would be the same. But what would be the difference between someone who had one hair and someone who had none? We call them both bald. Nowhere can we make a distinction between bald and having hair.

　　Which of the following statements best counters the argument above?

　　The word bald can be translated into other languages.

　　A word can have more than one meaning.

　　A word such as cat can be applied to several animals that differ in some respects.

　　Words can lack precision without being meaningless.

　　People cannot think clearly without using words.

　　答案：

　　对于新GRE逻辑阅读，考生除了采取题海战术，其实更应该做的就是总结。如果能从平日的练习中找到解新GRE逻辑阅读题的思路，那么，要比采取题海战术更好。
