GMAT阅读长难句断句技巧

GMAT阅读长难句断句技巧长难句是GMAT考试阅读常见的部分,我们复习GMAT阅读的时候要重点的关注一下。
长难句有一些好的技巧,比如断句。
把句子剖析开来就会容易的多,下面小编就给GMAT入门的同学详细的介绍一下GMAT阅读长难句断句技巧,希望对大家的GMAT考试有帮助。
1.首先,我们要明确GMAT阅读长句究竟在哪里断开,找到有用的,抛弃无用的。
先来看看下面这个句子:Even in the best of circumstances,fierce competition from larger,more established companies makes it difficult for small concerns to broaden their customer bases:when such firms have nearly guaranteed orders from a single corporate benefactor,they may truly have to struggle against complacency arising from their current success.2.在阅读时要注意辨别这些复杂修饰成分,找出真正的主语和谓语。
很显然,这句话应该在冒号处断开,冒号后是对前半句的解释,所以在读在这句话时,我们不必把太多精力放在前半句上,而要着重理解后半句,这才是与文章内容相关的部分。
整句话的复杂修饰成分包括介词短语in the best of circumstances,from larger,more established companies,以及不定式to broaden their customer bases,和现在分词arising from their current success.再来看一个复杂修饰成分为从句的例子:Civil rights activists have long argued that one of the principal reasons why Blacks,Hispanics,and other minority groups have difficulty establishing themselves in business is that they lack access to the sizable orders and subcontracts that are generated by large companies.3.原句中的定语从句、宾语从句对句意表达的作用不大,可以略过不读。

例一:Recently documented examples of neurogenesis,the production of new brain cells,include the brain growing in mice when placed in a stimulating environment or neurons increasing in canaries that learn new songs.A.the brain growing in mice when placed in a stimulating environment or neurons increasing in canaries that抓住句子主干,主语examples of neurogensis (如果不知道neurogenesis 是什么后面的同位语有解释,是新脑细胞的繁殖),所以是新脑细胞繁殖的例子,谓语include 包括,宾语大脑,逻辑不合理B.mice whose brains grow when they are placed in a stimulating environment or canaries whose neurons increase when they主干:新脑细胞繁殖的例子包括老鼠C.mice's brains that grow when they are placed in a stimulating environment or canaries'neurons that increase when they主干:新脑细胞繁殖的例子包括老鼠D.the brain growth in mice when placed in a stimulating environment or the increase in canaries'neurons when they新脑细胞繁殖的例子包括大脑发展,合理;但是后面出现了when placed 省略的是主语和be 动词,而我们的主语是examples ...逻辑语义不通E.brain growth in mice that are placed in a stimulating environment or an increase in neurons in canaries that新脑细胞繁殖的例子包括大脑发展,合理;mice that are...定语从句,后面or an increase in neurons ,新脑细胞繁殖的例子还包括神经元的增长,也合理。

GMAT句子改错的要求是让我们通过语法结构的变化,体会出不同选项间的语义差异,进而做出合理推理,因此为了在GMAT句子改错这一部分取得好成绩,我们首先要了解GMAT句子改错中可能出现的句型,按照句型读懂句意。
本文就GMAT SC句型为大家介绍下,希望帮助考生。
英语中最基本的句子是简单句,按照动词特性不同,可以分为五种,也就是说单句只有这五种是正确的。
1)主语+谓语
2)主语+谓语+宾语
3)主语+谓语+补语
4)主语+谓语+双宾语
5)主语+谓语+复合宾语
通过以上我们可以发现,一个完成的句子至少需要主语和谓语两个成分,这两个成分在一起就组成了句型一,比如我起床,然而有些动词动作必须发生在另一个对象上,否则整个句子的意义就不完整,这样就构成了第二种句型,比如我吃蛋糕。
在英语中,有一类叫做“是”的动词很值得我们关注,因为在所有句型中,只有解释为“是”的这种动词是完全没有意义的,所以就需要补语来补足句子的意思。
比如The dog is horrible,is在这里表达“是”的意思,但是可以不翻译出来,这些动词只是连接主语和补语的功能,所以我们也叫它们为系动词,系动词后边的内容一定是描述主语的。
所以这类句型也叫作主语补语。
那么什么是复合宾语呢,复合宾语又叫做宾语补语,我们知道主语补语是通过补语来了解主语是什么,那么宾语补语就是通过补语来了解宾语是什么,当然,宾语补语在GMAT中经常以不定式或者介词短语的方式出现。
最后说一下双宾语,英语中有一些动词是双及物动词,主要表示:给予,传递,提供,告知等意思,后边可以连接两个宾语,比如:He gives me a cake , me 和a cake 都是宾语。
以上就是GMAT SC句型的简单介绍,GMAT句子改错中会在加入一些状语或者定语,所以考生在做题的时候一定要分清句子结构,找到真正的主谓结构。
不要张冠李戴,贻笑大方。
希望考生都能顺利备考GMAT考试,早日梦圆名校。
