OG11做到100多题,前面短的文章还好,可是后面的长文章就完蛋了,我读的时候也做笔记,可是,找答案的时候,笔记的作用很小,而且答案找原文要半天,看答案也要半天,.原文我理解的还行,基本上都明白,可是做题速度怎么那么慢而且错的还不少,长文章错多时候错一半啊!!!
这到底是为什么呢?我哪里还欠缺?应该怎么练呢?
大家帮帮忙啊!!1
我和你的情况差不多。不过看看NN们的心得，还是坚持下去。我们可能是正处在黎明前最黑暗的时刻，蜕变的过程之中。坚持住！很多人和你一起通行！努力啊！！加油啊！！胜利就在前方!!!!

Hope this can help a little.
Sometimes we just do not understand what is tested in GMAT RC.
和你一样是通路人。不敢说是和你分享学习方法，只是心理上的相互鼓励而已。如有NN们看到我们的贴，希望他们能够给我更多的指点。
考的主要是细节，在全文的理解并不是重点。 如果你记的笔记觉得无用，就把出题点在原文上标出来。然后再在原文把出题点串起来和你的笔记相比较，看看有什么不同，自己的问题在哪。总结！！！再总结。不要担心时间，我基本上连读带做题10 到12分；难的错了有快一半；总结要花30－40分钟。 现在是og第二遍第34篇。好累！！！有时也是很茫然。可是反复读读NN们练习小安阅读方的心得，还是鼓励自己要挺住，不放弃。既然有那么多的先辈多通过这些方法成功了，我们也不比人家少鼻子少眼，就是少一份信心与耐心。天道酬勤！！！ 加油吧！
刚做完32， 你看，不是也很惨！！伤心之后我还是耐心总结了一下，可惜我纸上的笔记没法贴上来。通过这篇，我已经调整了笔记的方法。好象下篇好多了
Passage 32
According to a recent theory, Archean-age gold-quartz
vein systems were formed over two billion years ago from
magmatic fluids that originated from molten granitelike
bodies deep beneath the surface of the Earth. This theory is
(5) contrary to the widely held view that the systems were
deposited from metamorphic fluids, that is, from fluids that
formed during the dehydration of wet sedimentary rocks.
he recently developed theory has considerable practical
importance. Most of the gold deposits discovered during
(10)the original gold rushes were exposed at the Earth’s surface
and were found because they had shed trails of alluvial
gold that were easily traced by simple prospecting methods.
Although these same methods still lead to an occasional
discovery, most deposits not yet discovered have gone
(15) undetected because
they are buried and have no surface
expression.
(New theory compare to old view have pratical importance.) reader have to ask question why. Given some current situation about the difficult in gold mining.）
The challenge in exploration is therefore to unravel the
subsurface geology of an area and pinpoint the position of
buried minerals. Methods widely used today include
(20) analysis of aerial images that yield a broad geological
overview; geophysical techniques that provide data on the
magnetic, electrical, and mineralogical properties of the
rocks being investigated; and sensitive chemical tests that
are able to detect the subtle chemical halos that often
(25) envelop mineralization. However, none of these high-
technology methods are of any value if the sites to which
they are applied have never mineralized, and to maximize
the chances of discovery the explorer must therefore
pay
particular attention to selecting the ground formations most
(30) likely to be mineralized.
Such ground selection relies to
varying degrees on conceptual models, which take into
account theoretical studies of relevant factors.
Compare to other current method used today, the CM can maximize the mining chance.
These models are constructed primarily
from empirical
observations of known mineral deposits and from theories
35) of ore-forming processes. The explorer uses the models to
identify those geological features that are critical to the
formation of the mineralization being modeled, and then
tries to select areas for exploration that exhibit as many of
the critical features as possible.
How the CM works
198. The author is primarily concerned with
(A) advocating a return to an older methodology
(B) explaining the importance of a recent theory
(C) enumerating differences between two widely used methods
(D) describing events leading to a discovery (B)
(E) challenging the assumptions on which a theory is based
199. According to the passage, the widely held view of Archean- age gold-quartz vein systems is that such systems
(A) were formed from metamorphic fluids
(B) originated in molten granitelike bodies
(C) were formed from alluvial deposits
(D) generally have surface expression (A)
(E) are not discoverable through chemical tests
200. The passage implies that which of the following steps would be the first performed by explorers who wish to maximize their chances of discovering gold?
(A) Surveying several sites known to have been formed more than two billion years ago
(B) Limiting exploration to sites known to have been formed from metamorphic fluid.
(C) Using an appropriate conceptual model to select a site for further exploration
(D) Using geophysical methods to analyze rocks over a broad area (C)
(E) Limiting exploration to sites where alluvial gold has previously been found
to maximize
the chances of discovery the explorer must therefore
pay
particular attention to selecting the ground formations most
(30) likely to be mineralized. Such ground selection relies to
varying degrees on conceptual models, which take into
account theoretical studies of relevant factors.
201. Which of the following statements about discoveries of gold deposits is supported by information in the passage?
(A) The number of gold discoveries made annually has increased between the time of the original gold rushes and the present.
(B) New discoveries of gold deposits are likely to be the result of exploration techniques designed to locate buried mineralization.
(C) It is unlikely that newly discovered gold deposits will ever yield as much as did those deposits discovered during the original gold rushes.
(D) Modern explorers are divided on the question of the utility of simple prospecting methods as a source of new discoveries of gold deposits. (B)
(E) Models based on the theory that gold originated from magmatic fluids have already led to new discoveries of gold deposits.
most deposits not yet discovered have gone
(15) undetected because
they are buried and have no surface
expression.
202. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is easiest to detect?
(A) A gold-quartz vein system originating in magmatic fluids
(B) A gold-quartz vein system originating in meamorphic fluids
(C) A gold deposit that is mixed with granite
(D) A gold deposit that has shed alluvial gold (D)
(E) A gold deposit that exhibits chemical halos
were found because they had shed trails of alluvial
gold that were easily traced by simple prospecting methods
203. The theory mentioned in line 1 relates to the conceptual models discussed in the passage in which of the following ways?
(A) It may furnish a valid account of ore-forming processes, and, hence, can support conceptual models that have great practical significance.
(B) It suggests that certain geological formations, long believed to be mineralized, are in fact mineralized, thus confirming current conceptual models.
(C) It suggests that there may not be enough similarity across Archean-age gold-quartz vein systems to warrant the formulation of conceptual models.
(D) It corrects existing theories about the chemical halos of gold deposits, and thus provides a basis for correcting current conceptual models. (A)
(E) It suggests that simple prospecting methods still have a higher success rate in the discovery of gold deposits than do more modern methods.
primarily
from empirical
observations of known mineral deposits and from theories
35) of ore-forming processes.
204. According to the passage, methods of exploring for gold that are widely used today are based on which of the following facts?
(A) Most of the Earth’s remaining gold deposits are still molten.
(B) Most of the Earth’s remaining gold deposits are exposed at the surface.
(C) Most of the Earth’s remaining gold deposits are buried and have no surface expression.
(D) Only one type of gold deposit warrants exploration, since the other types of gold deposits are found in regions difficult to reach. (C)
(E) Only one type of gold deposit warrants exploration, since the other types of gold deposits are unlikely to yield concentrated quantities of gold.
most deposits not yet discovered have gone
(15) undetected because
they are buried and have no surface
expression.
205. It can be inferred from the passage that the efficiency of model-based gold exploration depends on which of the following?
I. The closeness of the match between the geological features identified by the model as critical and the actual geological features of a given area
II. The degree to which the model chosen relies on empirical observation of known mineral deposits rather than on theories of ore-forming processes
III. The degree to which the model chosen is based on an accurate description of the events leading to
mineralization
(A) I only
(B) II only
(C) I and II only
(D) I and III only
(E) (D)I, II and III
The explorer uses the models to
identify those geological features that are critical to the
formation of the mineralization being modeled, and then
tries to select areas for exploration that exhibit as many of
the critical features as possible.
pumpkin,我做阅读的时候注意力集中的很有限,有的时候只能通过笔记才记得刚刚看的文章到底在讲什么,那些能力我都够差的.还得练啊.
shappiesus,我也做了你的这篇文章,天啊,也是够打击的.你一天都看几篇文章,总结多少啊,你刚开始练阅读时就练的OG11吗,我看论坛里很多人都是把OG留在后面练的.
一起加油吧,希望黑夜过后,有明朗的晴空!
zhangym110,
I read OG CR and other reading material without using the Xiao An Method before. I was able to keep my speed around 2 minute without a stable accurate rate, which fluctuate between 50% to 80%. Careless is one of my problems, while EST is testing our ability of detailing. It has been like this for a while without any breakthrough. After the frustration, I decided to give it a try--by using the Xiao An Method, hoping it will to help me make some improvement.
As you said that many people would like to save the OG CR as the last reading material to practice. However, after reading NN's experiences, I feel that I should use it as a basic tool to train the way I read. As NNs said, it will help us create a clear picture about OG's test point, systematic reading habit (including be more sensitive to potential question point and meaningful key words, take notes effective, increase our concentration and memory capacity etc.)
I've been work on OG since last Saturday, and read 10, 10, 5, 0, 5, 9 passages respectively in the last 6 days. I am going to finish the last 9 passages today. Just like you, I felt my notes were often useless, even though I spend a lot of time on it. By comparing my notes and the lists of the key point from the og's questions, I saw I distracted myself from finding the structural key words and key points by too much details. Since yesterday, I have improved the notes taking skill--90% of questions can be traced back from the clear simple notes I wrote down.
After the 2nd review, I am going to do the 3rd time by following NN's instruction. I'll do the work, wait and see the result. Like the old saying: keep my finger crossed!(Wishing for the best!)
I also found it is very important to a stable psychological statues. Too often I feel lost and frustration during the study. Many times I simply give it up, the results were wasting all the efforts I had done before. So this time, I'll not going to give up. I go back to CD and read other's experience to encourage myself when I feel bad. It does help a lot. Now seems I become stranger and able to adjust myself quickly in a balanced mood- go back to where I fall down and find the reason rather than waste time being buried the frustration and pain.
Well, you are not a lonely traveler on this journey. Share your joy and pain, we will help each other and grow together. Hope tomorrow will be a better day! Cheers! ^_^
是啊,只有慢慢的磨,才让我们更加坚强.昨天晚上还在打算把电脑修了,有病毒了,今天电脑里我的学习资料全都打不开了,于是,好吧,WORD打不开,就用ADOBE,心情平静了好多,要是前一阵子一定会觉得自己什么都不顺,现在只是在想快点解决的办法.这也算进步吧,逃离那种坏心情和烦躁的习惯,是好的.
阅读还要继续读,之后做第二遍的总结,希望有所突破
I am study reading now. After I finish XDF, I'll do OG11 next. I am not used to take notes... but if you can really collect 90% of questions in a simple note, it worth trying.
我现在最愁的是细节题 找起来超费劲啊 总不知道应该定位在哪里 大家有什么好方法 而且我对于科技现象解释类的文章束手无措~ 看到那么多不懂的单词都晕了 最郁闷的是句子都很奇怪 不知道在说什么 今天作gwd24狂打击 最后一片将深层地震的原理四道全错了 根本找不到出题点在哪里！
今天看了一天的白勇语法,因为病毒别的都看不了,但是还很有收益,可看到论坛里有白勇辞世的消息,着实让我难过.我没上过他的课,甚至没看过他,可是,看到了那个消息,我的心里却是好酸,很受打击的感觉,因为我觉得XDF的老师永远都是那么激情,那么乐观,积极,向上,是他们给我们带来了最初的动力,希望,实现梦想的捷径,我是那么的仰视他们.可他们也有病倒的时候.
现在看白勇语法好认真,很复杂的感受,只是更希望自己加油,好好学,把G给杀了.
大家都努力吧,有太多的人都在期望我们的成功,或许他们一直默默的在我们身旁,或许素不相识.
