先谈OG11TH的SC部分:
SC部分一共有137题(比起10TH来说,题目基本少了一半).而且大部分的题目(大概有80%或者更多)都来自大全和10TH.(反正我做完后,发现基本都是以前有见过的题,除了一小部分之外).
SC部分第一眼给我的感觉是,结构比10TH好多了.每一道题后面的解释都会说明这道题的考点和原题错(或对)在什么地方.然后,再具体分为A,B,C,D和E选项去说明每个原项错和对的地方.
举个例子(大全987-2):
2. A 1972 agreement between Canada and the United States reduced the amount of phosphates that municipalities had been allowed to dump into the Great Lakes.
(A) reduced the amount of phosphates that municipalities had been allowed to dump
(B) reduced the phosphate amount that municipalities had been dumping
(C) reduces the phosphate amount municipalities have been allowed to dump
(D) reduced the amount of phosphates that municipalities are allowed to dump（A）
(E) reduces the amount of phosphates allowed for dumping by municipalities
该题的答案,ETS认为答案不是A,而是D.
ETS是这么解释的(下面原文照抄):
Verb form + Idiom
An agreement that occurred in 1972 is correctly described with the past tens verb reduced.Since the dumping continues into the present, the past perfect verb had been allowed should instead be the present are allowed.
A Had been allowed should be are allowed.
B The phosphbates amount should be the amount of phosphates;the meaning of the sentence is changed by the omission of any form of allow.
C The present tense reduces should be the past tense reduced;the phosphate amount should be the amount of phosphates;have been allowed should be are allowed
D Correct.The past tense reduced is correctly used in this sentence to describe a past action,and the present tense are allowed is used to describle the present situation.
E The present tense reduces should be the past tense redueced;allowed for dumping is an incorrect idiom;allowed for dumping by municipalities is awkward
The correct answer is D.
虽然11TH的解释在结构上很有条理,但是中规中矩.也改正10TH的一些错误,比如OG164那道:
164. The commission proposed that funding for the park’s development, which could be open to the public early next year, is obtained through a local bond issue.
(A) that funding for the park’s development, which could be open to the public early next year, is
(B) that funding for development of the park, which could be open to the public early next year, be
(C) funding for the development of the park, perhaps open to the public early next year, to be
(D) funds for the park’s development, perhaps open to the public early next year, be（B）
(E) development funding for the park, which could be open to the public early next year, is to be
11TH已改正了10TH中164题E中which指代的解释错误.
不过,比起10TH版来说,11TH还是保守了很多.很多题,比不上10TH的解释的详细,而且很多语言现象,都不怎么提,相对来说,11TH的解释更针对于题目的考点,而考点之外的知识,基本不提.可能是ETS怕别人challenge.所以在11TH的解释上变得规矩多了,但对于我们来说,可不是好事呀.
总的来说,我喜欢11TH的解释的结构,同时我更喜欢10TH比较详细的解释,尤其是各个语言现象.
最后说一下,在OG 11TH上,ETS把SC的考点分为以下几类:
1.Agreement
2.Diction
3.Grammatical Construction
4.Idiom
5.Logical Predication
6.Parallelism
7.Rhetorical Construction
8.Verb Form
OG11TH上,每道SC的解释就是根据上面8个考点进行分类的.
而ETS在11TH上很清楚的说明了SC要考察的能力主要在如下三个大方面:
一.Correct expression
二.Effective expression
三.Proper diction
关于SC的感想大概就说到这,以后如果想到的话再补充.CR和RC方面有空在谈.
要是有个扫描仪就好了,这样就省了手敲的工夫了... |
