In1755British writer Samuel Johnson published an acerbic letter to Lord Chesterfield rebuffing his patron for neglecting and declining further support.Johnson’s rejection of his patron’s belated assistance has often been identified as a key moment in the history of publishing,marking the end of the culture of patronage.However,patronage had been in decline for50years,yet would survive,in attenuated form,for another50.Indeed,Johnson was in1762awarded a pension by the Crown–a subtle form of sponsorship,tantamount to state patronage.The importance of Johnson’s letter is not so much historical as emotional;it would become a touchstone for all who repudiated patrons and for all who embraced the laws of the marketplace.
7.The author of the passage mentions Johnson’s1762pension award in order to
A.reveal that Johnson remained consistent in his rebuke of Lord Chesterfield well after1755
B.provide evidence for a general trend in the later half of the eighteenth century of private
patronage’s being replaced by state sponsorship
C.situated the debate over the end of patronage within the wider realm of eighteenth-century
economic history
D.suggest that Johnson’s letter to Chesterfield was noticed by the crown only years after it was
published
E.emphasize that patronage still helped support Johnson’s writing after his letter to Chesterfield
8.Which of the following best describes the function of the highlighted sentence in the context of
the passage as a whole?
A.It points out the most obvious implications of Johnson’s letter to his patron
B.It suggests a motivation for Johnson’s rejection of Chesterfield’s patronage
C.It provides information that qualifies the assertion that Johnson’s letter sharply defined the end
of a publishing era
D.It provides a possible defense for Chesterfield’s alleged neglect of Johnson
E.It refutes the notion that patrons are found primarily among the nobility
“Blues is for singing,”writes folk musicologist Paul Oliver,and“is not a form of folk song that stan…(?)particularly well when written down.”A poet who wants to write blues can attempt to avoid this problem poeticizing the form–but literary blues tend to read like bad poetry rather than like refined folk song.For Oliver,the true spirit of the blues inevitably eludes the self-conscious imitator.However,Langston Hughes,the first writer to grapple with these difficulties of blue poetry in fact succeeded in producing poems that capture the quality of genuine,performed blues while remaining effective as poems.In inventing blues poetry,Hughes solved two problems:first,how to write blues lyrics in such a way that they work on the printed page,and second,how to exploit the blues form poetically without losing all sense of authenticity.
There are many styles of blues,but the distinction of importance to Hughes is between the genres referred to as“folk blues”and“classic blues.”Folk blues and classic blues are distinguished
from one another by differences in performers(local talents versus touring professionals), patronage(local community versus mass audience),creation(improvised versus composed),and transmission(oral versus written).It has been a commonplace among critics that Hughes adopted the classic blues as the primary model for his blues poetry,and that he writes his best blues poetry when he tries least to imitate the folk blues.In this view,Hughes’attempts to imitate the folk blues are too self-conscious,too determined to romanticize the African American experience,too intent on reproducing what he takes to be the quaint humor and na?ve simplicity of the folk blues to be successful.
But a more realistic view is that by conveying his perceptions as a folk artist ought to–through an accumulation of details over the span of his blues oeuvre,rather than by overloading each poem with quaintness and naivety–Hughes made his most important contributions to the genre.His blues poems are in fact closer stylistically to the folk blues on which he modeled them than to the cultivated classic blues.Arnold Rampersad has observed that virtually all of the poems in the1927collection in which Hughes essentially originated blues poetry fall deliberatively within the“range of utterance of common folk.This surely applies to“Y oung Gal’s Blues,”in which Hughes avoids the conventionally“poetic”language and images that the subjects of death and love sometimes elicit in his ordinary lyric poetry.T o see what Hughes’blues poetry might have been like if he had truly adopted the classic blues as his model,one need only look to“Golden Brown Blues,”a song lyric Hughes wrote for composer W.C.Handy.Its images,allusions,and diction are conspicuously remote from the common“range of utterance.”
9.The primary purpose of the passage is to
A.describe the influence of folk and classic blues on blues poetry
B.analyze the effect of African American culture on Blues poetry
C.demonstrate that the language used in Hughes’blues poetry is colloquial
D.defend Hughes’blues poetry against criticism that it is derivative

The recent announced discovery of the first known planet orbiting a pulsar(the ultradense, pulsating remnant off the supernova explosion of a star)turned out to be based on faulty data.Had this discovery been confirmed,theorists would have had difficulty accounting for the existence of such a planet.The supernova would certainly have destroyed any preexisting planets.This particular pulsar is relatively young,allowing little time for a new planet to have coalesced,and it rotates relatively slowly,implying that it has not interacted with any nearby star since the supernova.
But newer evidence of a different pulsar with planets is more promising.This is a rapidly spurring“millisecond pulsar”thought to be a much older object that has pulled gaseous material from a stellar neighbor,causing its rotational speed to increase.Leftover,unconsumed gas around such a pulsar could,in theory,coalesce into planets.Or the pulsar’s radiation might have vaporized a companion star,providing new material for planetary formation.
18.The primary purpose of the passage is to
A.provide an example of the dangers of a recent discovery based on faulty data
B.illustrate the difficulty of explanation concerning a recent discovery
C.assess the credibility of recent findings concerning the as yet unverified existence of a class of
objects
D.argue that a certain hypothesis fails to account for a seemingly contradictory phenomenon
E.demonstrate how difficult it might be to find out the reality of a phenomenon
19.Which of the following can be inferred regarding the pulsar discussed in the first paragraph?
A.Theorists initially doubted its existence.
B.If its existence had been confirmed,astronomers would and have turned their attention to the
pulsar discussed in the second paragraph.
C.If the supernovas explosions that created it had been more powerful,the resulting radiation
would have preceded the subsequent formation of a planet.
D.If it had interacted with a nearby star since the supernova explosion,it would rotate faster than
it does.
E.Astronomers’interest in it ultimately led to a new theory of planetary formation.

During the Pleistocene epoch,several species of elephants isolated on islands underwent rapid dwarfing.This phenomenon was not necessarily confined to the Pleistocene,but may have occurred much earlier in the southeastern Asian islands,although evidence is fragmentary.Several explanations are possible for this dwarfing.For example,islands often have not been colonized by large predators or are too small to hold viable predator populations.Once free from predation pressure,large body size is of little advantage to herbivores.Additionally,island habitats have limited food resources,a smaller body size and a need for fewer resources would thus be favored. Interestingly,the island rule is reversed for small mammals such as rodents,for which gigantism is favored under insular conditions.
7.The primary purpose of the passage is to
A.question the plausibility of one explanation sometimes offered for the dwarfing of certain
species living on islands.
B.argue that dwarfing of certain species living on islands occurred prior to the Pleistocene.
C.cite evidence suggesting that dwarfing may have adverse consequences for some species living
on islands.
D.present some possible explanations for the dwarfing of certain species living on islands.

body.
8.According to the passage,which of the following statements about body size in mammals is
true?
A.A large body is unfavorable to mammalian species’survival under most conditions.
B.A large body tens to benefit small mammals living on islands.
C.For most herbivorous mammals,a large body size is easier to sustain in the absence of large
predators.
D.Under most conditions,a small body is less beneficial to herbivorous mammals than to
non-herbivorous mammals.
E.Among non-herbivorous mammals,a small body is more beneficial on an island than on a
mainland.
The“deindustrialization”thesis of Bluestone and Harrison asserts that the replacement of domestic with foreign manufacturing begun by United States corporations in the late1960s resulted in a“hollowing out”of American industry,whereby workers displaced from manufacturing jobs through massive plant closings found themselves moving more or less permanently into lower-paying,less secure jobs or into unemployment.Critics of the deindustrialization thesis have argued that new service and high-technology sectors of the United states economy have recently created a substantial number of jobs.While these critics do not deny the painful aspects of this transition from an industrial to a service-and information-based economy,they argue that it will be short-term,and a necessary evil if the United States is to have a long-term increase in living standards.Critics of the emerging economy,however point to disturbing evidence of an “hourglass”effect:a shrinking middle tier of managerial and blue-collar unionized workers and consequent polarization of incomes.The emergence of a technical and financial elite,they argue, has brought forth a host of low-wage jobs to service the new economy,and it is this service sector that many ex-industrial workers must seek.
9.The purpose of the passage is to
A.analyze the events that contributed to an economic phenomenon
B.present different views on the nature and impact of an economic phenomenon
C.distinguish between the short-term and long-term effects of an economic phenomenon
D.challenge a dominant theory about how to solve the problems created by an economic
phenomenon
E.present new evidence to suggest that an economic phenomenon is more complex than had
previously been believed
10.Which of the following,if true,would most tend to weaken the deindustrialization thesis of
Bluestone and Harrison?
A.A survey of the spouses of former industrial workers reveals a significant increase in the
number of working spouses since the mid-1960s.
B.Data from the most recent United States census show that fewer individuals list their
occupation as industrial worker than in the census from ten years earlier.
C.A random survey of United States consumers indicates that a majority of those surveyed would
prefer to buy united states-manufacturing goods if given the opportunity.
D.A recent study indicates that large numbers of former industrial workers have retrained and
found employment as skilled,highly-paid computer workers.
E.Interviews with representatives at major agencies for temporary employment in the United
States suggest that they value the skills of the former industrial workers.
11.It can be inferred from the passage that the highlighted“critics”believe which of the following
about“hourglass”effect?
A.It involves the relegation of industrial workers to less desirable jobs.
B.It requires that workers make short-term sacrifices to achieve long-term gains.
C.It affects non-unionized workers more strongly than it does unionized workers.
D.It represents an increase in unemployment for those in the service sector.
E.It threatens the status of the technological and financial elite.

Princessfish are a species of coral-reef fish that are captured alive by divers who first stun the individual fish by squirting a certain poison at them.Since the divers limit their catch to a few individuals and take care not to overfish,the divers’continuing activities will clearly not result in serious harm to populations of princessfish.
16.Which of the following,if true,most seriously weaken the argument given?
A.Princessfish cannot be captured alive by traditional methods of fishing.
B.The poison used to stun the princessfish has no effect on humans who eat them.
C.Demand for princessfish has remained steady during the last decade.
D.T races of the poison that remain in the seawater damage the Corals that create and maintain the
reefs on which princessfish depend.
E.Fish that have been stunned but have selected for capture by the divers soon recover from the
temporary effect of the poison.
Was resource intensification–an increase in labor and time devoted to subsistence activities in order to increase food yields–by Dorset Paleo-Eskimos and Recent Indians on the island of Newfoundland simply a response to population pressure?Not exactly.On Newfoundland, population pressure did not result from a steadily growing resident population but,rather,from the arrival and lingering presence of new and significantly different populations.Newfoundland’s hunter-gatherer populations–both resident and newcomer–adjusted to the presence of other populations through niche differentiation.Building on a tradition that emphasized marine resources, Dorset Paleo-Eskimos intensified their harvest of seals in response to the arrival of Recent Indians in the first few centuries A.D.Recent Indians who were more familiar with broad-based, interior-maritime adaptation,intensified this strategy to cope with the Dorset.
17.According to the passage,which of the following resulted from the arrival of the recent
Indians?
A.The Dorset Paleo-Eskimos were forced to compete with the Recent Indians for a limited supply
of seals.
B.The Dorset Paleo-Eskimos spent more time harvesting seals than they had in the past.
C.The Dorset Paleo-Eskimos increased the amount of labor and time devoted to defending their
territory.
D.The Dorset Paleo-Eskimos began to adopt new subsistence strategies they learned from the
Recent Indians.
E.The previously steady growth of the Dorset Paleo-Eskimos population came to a halt.
18.Which of the following best describes the function of the highlighted sentence in the context of
the passage as a whole?
A.It points out a flaw in a theory discussed earlier in the passage.
B.It demonstrates the need for additional research on a phenomenon mentioned earlier in the
passage.
C.It underscores the importance of a trait mentioned earlier in the passage.
D.it supports an assertion made earlier in the passage.
E.It questions the evidence for a tradition mentioned earlier in the passage.
Founder mutations are a class of disease-causing genetic mutations,each derived from its own ancestral“founder”in whom the mutation originated,While most disease-causing mutated are found in humans at a rate of one in a few thousand to one in a few million people,founder mutation can occur at much higher rates,This apparent anomaly is partially explained by the fact that most founder mutations are recessive:only a person with copies of the affected gene from both parents
becomes ill.Most people with only one copy of the gene—“carriers”—survive and pass the gene to offspring.Furthermore,the single copy of a founder mutation often confers a survival advantage on carriers.For example,the hereditary hemochromatosis mutation protects carriers from iron-deficiency anemia because the mutated gene allows increased efficiency of iron absorption.
19.The passage indicates which of the following about founder mutations?
A.Carriers of founder mutation may receive certain benefits from the mutated gene.
B.People who inherit founder mutations from both parents can become ill as a result.
C.Founder mutations are less likely than other mutations to be passed to offspring.
20.The author of the passage mentions the hereditary hemochromatosis mutation”primarily in
order to illustrate(?)
A.the circumstances under which a founder mutation fails to cause a disease
B.how difficult it is to predict the effects of founder mutations on carriers
C.the difference between harmful founder mutation and those that are beneficial
D.how a single copy of a founder mutation can benefit a carrier
E.a challenge to a particular about the transmission of founder mutations
详解GRE阅读最常见三种题型 阅读题不管是放在哪一类考试上都能够算得上是一枚重磅炸弹。但是GRE阅读题因为是针对阅读英文能力的一种考察，那么对于中国考生而言也并非是容易的。以下GRE考试培训机构老师就要为考生们介绍GRE阅读最常见三种题型。 1. 主题题：一般在第一题，也会在中间2,3题，通常在末题出现的几率很少，解题技巧一般是从中心词(论述对象)，配合TS(往往在首段出现，一定要记住“从前不从后”,原来的主旨为准)，有时还要将下面的细节段落的层次关系概括考虑入内，得出答案。GRE考试培训机构老师表示若考生们在突破时可以边读边想，那么这个题不用15秒就可以看出，而后再使用原来积累的错误项的标志来“审核”(一定要注意永远别使用“排除法”来解这种题，否则浪费的时间是无法弥补的!)，哪些标志呢?关键是记住细节段里的举例事物，唯一性，绝对性词汇就行了! 2. Insgroupsto题型：大家要注意到直接出现insgroupsto字样与也许会出现的“变体”,判断方式为该题问的是一种“因果联系”,还有作者提及A是为了什么，关于这个A能够是例子，又或是一个论证细节等等，那事不疑迟，马上从题干的事物出发返回到原文定位，而后快速的判断此层面的逻辑关系，而后决定是向上或者向下找几行，找到那个原因，提取“中心词”(有显着特征的词)而后在5个选项里识别出来，填上答案，不出30秒。 3. 作者态度题：回忆问及的事物是否给过“情态形容词或副词”修饰过，注意是“回忆”,针对此类词前面我已说过必须要注意留心，自己在突破里也许已经有所发现，大部分的书上还举出了动词，只要这种词一出现考生们都比较看得清，谁都知道是否定，但在此我举的就十分的隐蔽，独自的指出好像谁都知道，但在
GRE逻辑题的解题技巧—削弱结论型题目 根据GRE逻辑题的题目类型，将其划分为五类：支持结论型，削弱结论型，分析逻辑结构型，得出结论型(推断题)，和解决矛盾型。接下来重点介绍GRE逻辑题削弱结论型题目的解题技巧，大家好好进行复习吧，以便更好冲刺GRE高分。 GRE逻辑题中削弱结论型题目与支持结论型题目非常像，当然它们之间的差别也是显著的，一个是削弱结论，一个是加强结论。削弱结论型题目回忆很多的形式出现：Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument? Which of the following, if true, could present the most serious disadvantage of XYZ Corporation’s new marketing initiative? Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the view that the drug treatment will NOT be successful? 几乎所有削弱结论型题目的正确答案都会挖掘出论证中出现的一个错误或者破坏论证中的假设，又或者直接否定结论。其错误答案也具有一定的特征：第一点就是与结论无关，很多错误的答案与前提条件有关，但是与结论无关，不正确的答案只是提供一些与前提条件相关的不必要信息;第二点就是答案的方向错误，一些错误答案事实上支持结论。 同支持结论型题目一样，你需要记住的是逻辑论证中既会有结论，也会有相反的结论。 下面列举个例子进行说明： The national infrastructure for airport runways and air traffic control require immediate expansion to accommodate the proliferation of new private, smaller aircraft. The Federal Aviation Authority (the FAA) has proposed a fee for all air travelers to help fund this expansion. However, this fee would be unfair, as it would impose costs on all travelers to benefit only the few who utilize the new private planes. Which of the following, if true, would allow the FAA to counter the objection that the proposed fee would be unfair? A. The existing national airport infrastructure benefits all travelers. B. The fee, if imposed, will have a negligible effect on the overall volume of air travel. C. The expansion would reduce the number of delayed flights resulting from small private planes congesting runways. D. Travelers who use small private planes are almost uniformly wealthy or traveling on business.

言下之意就是把推理过程推翻了，条件是推不出结论的。我们来看看，如何推翻条件，“在某些地区，出现了高密度浮游植物，但浮游动物并没有减少”。 这就削弱了条件。再看看如何削弱结论，“试验中，将植物体内的排斥物质放在正在培养着浮游动物的容器中，并不能使浮游动物的数量减少”结论就削弱了。 以上内容给考生详细介绍了GRE阅读逻辑题快速选择答案技巧，希望对考生有帮助，考生们在做完一个GRE阅读逻辑题以后，不要满足于答案，要多想想到底是支持或削弱了条件，结论还是推理过程。当把这种思维变成自己思维一部分的时候，自然可以应对自如。 截止目前，留学360更新海外名校录取86789枚，中哈佛大学43人、耶鲁大学56人、斯坦福大学43人、麻省理工学院25人、牛津大学38人、剑桥大学35人、多伦多大学 290人、麦吉尔大学353人、悉尼大学1874人、墨尔本大学1286人、澳洲国立大学 1100人、香港大学120人、新加坡国立大学150人、南洋理工大学227人、新西兰奥克兰大学1241人。

练习1 1. Patel: Although enrollment in the region's high school has been decreasing for several years, enrollment at the elementary school has grown considerably. Therefore, the regional school board proposes building a new elementary school. Quintero: Another solution would be to convert some high school classrooms temporarily into classrooms for elementary school students. Which of the following, if true, most helps to support Quintero's alternative proposal? (A) Some rooms at the high school cannot be con- verted into rooms suitable for the use of ele- mentary school students. (B) The cost of building a high school is higher than the cost of building an elementary school. (C) Although the birth rate has not increased, the number of families sending their children to the region's high school has increased markedly.

Peter: More than ever before in Risland, college graduates with science degrees are accepting permanent jobs in other fields. That just goes to show that scientists in Risland are not being paid enough. Lila: No, it does not. These graduates are not working in science for the simple reason that there are not enough jobs in science in Risland to employ all of these graduates. Which of the following, if true in Risland, would most undermine the reasoning in Peter's argument? (A) The college graduates with science degrees who are not working in science are currently earning lower salaries than they would earn as scientists. (B) Fewer college students than ever before are receiving degrees in science. (C) The number of jobs in science has steadily risen in the last decade. (D) A significant number of college graduates with science degrees worked at low-paying jobs while they were in college. (E) Every year some recent college graduates with science degrees accept permanent jobs in nonscientific fields.

A strong analogy exists between 5 European composers like Ralph Vaughan Williams, Edward Grieg, and Anton Dvorak who combined folk tunes and their own original materials in larger compositions and the pioneer ragtime composers in the United States. Composers like Scott Joplin and James 10 Scott were in a sense collectors or musicologists,collecting dance and folk music in Black communities and consciously shaping it into brief suites or anthologies called piano rags.(100 words) 9. Which of the following is most nearly analogous in source and artistic character to a ragtime composition as described in the passage? (A) Symphonic music derived from complex jazz motifs (B) An experimental novel based on well-known cartoon characters (C) A dramatic production in which actors invent scenes and improvise lines (D) A ballet whose disciplined choreography is based on folk-dance steps (E) A painting whose abstract shapes evoke familiar objects in a natural landscape 答案：D 新GRE逻辑阅读练习题 Ge ologists have long known that the Earth‘s mantle is heterogeneous, but its spatial arrangement remains unresolved—is the mantle essentially layered or irregu-larly heterogeneous? The best evidence for the layered-mantle thesis is the well-established fact that volcanic rocks found on oceanic islands, islands believed to result from mantle plumes arising from the lower mantle, are composed of material fundamentally different from that of the midocean ridge system, whose source, most geologists contend, is the upper mantle. Some geologists, however, on the basis of obser-vations concerning mantle xenoliths, argue that the mantle is not layered, but that heterogeneity is created by fluids rich in “incompatible elements” (elements tending toward liquid rather than solid state)percolating upward and transforming

Auditor from Acme Industries: Last week at Acme Bakery, about six percent of the pastries baked during the night shift were found to be imperfect, but no imperfect pastries were found among those baked during the day shift. Pastries are inspected during the same shift in which they are baked, so clearly the night-shift quality control inspectors were more alert, despite their nighttime work hours, than the dayshift quality control inspectors. The argument depends on the assumption that at least some imperfect pastries were baked during the day shift at Acme Bakery last week not all of the pastries that the night-shift quality control inspectors judged to be imperfect were in fact imperfect the night-shift quality control inspectors received more training in quality control procedures than did the day-shift quality control inspectors in a normal week, fewer than six percent of the pastries baked during the night shift at Acme Bakery are found to be imperfect there are only two shifts per day at Acme Bakery, a day shift and a night shift 感谢您的阅读！

逻辑阅读10套部分翻译与解析（第1套） 我把自己的一些思路写出来了，初次接触逻辑阅读，还在总结技巧中。做的过程中，请教过别人，总结了两点：1、注意找关系，而不要过多地去弄明白中文意思，有些句子真的不好用中文直接翻译，浪费时间。2.尽量排除无关信息的干扰，比如选项中出现了题目中没有提到的可以直接pass 掉，即使你觉得可能是对的。 1.内容：尽管在该地区的高中入学率已经连续几年下降，但小学的入学率已经有相当大地增长，因此，地区教育委员会建议建立一所新的小学。Q提出的另一种方案是暂时性地把一些高中教室给小学生用。 问题：下面的哪一个能支持Ｑ的提议： Ａ．高中的一些教室不能改造成合适的小学教室。 Ｂ．建一所高中比小学花费高 Ｃ．尽管出生率并没有提高，但该地区的家庭送孩子上高中的增加了很多 Ｄ．高中的氛围可能会伤害到小学生的安全和自信。Ｅ．即使在该地区的高中生人数减少之前，就有几个高中的教室很少被利用。 很明显答案选Ｅ。 2.Ｐ：现在比以前更多的获得科学学位的研究生找到其他的领域的永久性工作。这表明科学家在Ｒ没有给予足够的薪
水。 Ｌ：不。这些人不能在科学领域工作只是因为该地区不能为毕业生提供足够的科学领域的职位。 问题：下面哪个选修会削弱Ｐ的观点。 Ａ．现在那些不在科学领域工作的毕业生挣得的钱比在科学领域工作低 Ｂ．比以前更少的学生获得科学学位。 Ｃ．在过去十年中，科学领域的工作稳定地增加 Ｄ．很大一部分科学学位毕业生在大学做着低报酬的工作。Ｅ．每年一些最近的科学学位毕业生接受了非科学领域的永久性工作 明显的答案选Ａ。 3.Ｃ：每年一个很出名的杂志发行了一系列的通过一系列标准混合后的综合的得分而进行排名的大学名单。但这些综合得分不能成为学生申请的依据。 问题：下面哪一个有助于证明Ｃ的建议。 Ａ．买这本书的大多数读者不是入学大学的。 Ｂ．排名最好的一些学校通过这来当做吸引学生的广告Ｃ．这个排名一年年地很少变化 Ｄ．由于学生们的不同需求，这个特殊的标准对他们的作用也就不一样

The mouse will carry the food back to the nest, causing all of the mice to die, while a trap will kill only the one mouse that falls into it. If all signs of the mice disappear for three consecutive weeks after poisoned food is used, the homeowner can be sure that the poison was successful in eradicating the mice. Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the exterminator’s claim that the absence of signs for three weeks means the mice have been eradicated by the poison? (A) Because mice hide whenever they sense humans, it is very difficult to see or hear mice even when there is an active infestation.
新GRE逻辑阅读练习题精选汇总 逻辑要点在解GRE阅读是是关键，今天小编和大家一起来看一下新GRE逻辑阅读练习题吧，快来学习学习吧，下面小编就和大家分享，来欣赏一下吧。 新GRE逻辑阅读练习题 Islamic law is a particularly instructive example of "sacred law". Islamic law is a phenomenon so different from all other forms of law notwithstanding, of course,a considerable and inevitable number of coincidences 5 with one or the other of them as far as subject matter and positive enactment are concerned—that its study is indispensable in order to appreciate adequately the full range of possible legal phenomena. Even the two other representatives of sacred law that are historically and 10 geographically nearest to it, Jewish law and Roman Catholic canon law, are perceptibly different. Both Jewish law and canon law are more uniform than Islamic law. Though historically there is a discernible break between Jewish law of the sovereign 15 state of ancient Israel and of the Diaspora (the dispersion of Jewish people after the conquest of Israel), the spirit of the legal matter in later parts of the Old Testament is very close to that of the Talmud, one of the primary codifications of Jewish law in the Diaspora. Islam, on the 20 other hand, represented a radical breakaway from the Arab paganism that preceded it; Islamic law is the result of an examination, from a religious angle, of legal subject matter that was far from uniform, comprising as it did the various components of the laws of pre-Islamic Arabia and 25 numerous legal elements taken over from the non-Arab peoples of the conquered territories. All this was unified by being subjected to the same kind of religious scrutiny, the impact of which varied greatly, being almost nonexistent in some fields, and in others originating novel 30 institutions. This central duality of legal subject matter and religious norm is additional to the variety of legal, ethical, and ritual rules that is typical of sacred law. In its relation to the secular state, Islamic law differed from both Jewish and canon law. Jewish law was 35 buttressed by the cohesion of the community, reinforced by pressure from outside; its rules are the direct expression of this feeling of cohesion, tending toward the accommodation of dissent. Canon and Islamic law, on the contrary, were dominated by the dualism of religion and
GRE考试逻辑阅读部分翻译与解析（4） 1、环保机构必须对接触教室空气中的石棉纤维给孩子健康带来的 危害做出反应。因为不可能关闭学校的建筑。所以的方法就是着手实 施强制性立即消除所有学校建筑中的石棉的计划，而不管这些建筑物 是否在使用中。 下列哪一个，假如准确，是有力的原因来说明环境保护机构不理 应实行上面所提出的计划? (A)可行的消除石棉的技术通常增加空中的石棉含量。 (B)学校是居民活动最可能导致石棉释放到大气中的场所。 (C)接触空气中石棉的孩子比接触空中的石棉的成人得癌症的风险 更大。 (D)消除石棉的成本在各个学校中不同，它取决于被除去石棉的量 及可接近的水准。 (E)不可能确切判定含有石棉的建筑材料是否且什么时候将分解并 且释放石棉纤维而进入空气。 解析：本题实际上要找一个选项来支持不应着手实施强制性立即 消除石棉的计划。(A)说明消除石棉的技术增加空气中的石棉含量，意 味着消除石棉的效果反而更差，所以，支持了不应着手实施强制性立 即消除石棉的计划;(B)与消除石棉的计划无关;(C)是一个新的比较;(D)涉及的成本不同，但只要利大于弊就应实施强制性立即消除石棉的计划;(E)与(B)一样，与消除石棉的计划较远。 2、Aedesalbopictus是蚊子的一个变种，最近在美国东南部衍居，它没有当地的沼泽蚊子分布广。沼泽蚊子与A.都能携带有时能使人致 命的病毒，但丸对公众健康危害更大。
下列选项除哪个外，如果准确，都能提供附加信息来支持以上所 做出的对公共健康产生危害的判断。 (A)与沼泽蚊子不同，A.原产于亚洲，且20世纪80年代中期以前 在美国还没有发现过A.的幼虫。 (B)不同于沼泽蚊子，A.albopictus倾向于在人类居住地附近度过它们的绝大部分成熟期。 (C)不同于沼泽蚊子的幼虫，A.albopictus幼虫生存于花盆、锡罐，和很多盛有少量水的家用物体中。 (D)与沼泽蚊子相比较，A.albopictus是大量所知的能导致人类严重疾病的病毒的宿主。 (E)A.albopictus是比沼泽蚊子搜索更大范围的动物宿主，更可能叮咬人类。 解析：本题为strengthen EXCEPT题型，答案方向为无关选项或 反对选项。上文的判断为A.albopictus is a greater danger to public health，(A)强调的是A.albopictus被发现的时间，与“是否 对公众健康危害甚大无关，所以做为无关选项，必为准确答案;(B)、(C)、(E)说明Aalbopictus更可能与人类接触，所以起到支持作用;(D)是支持作用更为明显。 3、一个人如果增加日进餐次数且不显著增加所摄入的食物总量， 那么他的胆固醇水平会有显著下降。不过，绝大部分增加日进餐次数 的人同时也摄人了更多的食物。 上面陈述如果准确，下列哪一个结论最能支持上面的陈述? (A)对于绝大部分人来说，胆固醇的水平不受每天吃的食物量的影响。 (B)对于绝大部分人来说，每顿饭吃的食物的量取决于吃饭的时间。
