2016年8月17日GRE阅读机经
阅读1
Meltzoff and Moore reported experiments showing that human newborns possess the ability to imitate certain facial expressions, such as a protruding tongue or an open mouth. Yet numerous researchers challenge Meltzoff’s interpretation that such neonatal imitation is the origin of later imitation, which appears at approximately eight to twelve months of age. These researchers point out that the neonatal imitative response disappears or is lessened at approximately two months. Moreover, since in follow-up studies only one type of imitative response toward a facial expression (that is, tongue protrusion) was observed, some researchers assert that neonatal imitation is not imitation at all but may simply be a form of exploratory behavior in response to interesting stimuli.
According to the passage, those who challenge “Meltzoff’s interpretation” do so on the basis that it
A. implies inaccurate predictions
B. lacks testable consequences
C. assumes a discredited theory
D. leaves an unexplained gap
E. involves circular reasoning
参考答案：C
该题对应文本第二第三句。Meltzoff认为新生婴儿的模仿行为是后期婴儿八至十二个月大时的模仿行为的起源。而其他研究人员认为新生婴儿的模仿行为在两个月后消失或减少。而且后面继续提到，只观察到一种模仿。故该题选C合适，Meltzoff的解释不足信。

The passage implies which of the following about the experimental results reported by Meltzoff and Moore?
A. They were, at best, only partially borne out by subsequent studies
B. They cast doubt on the validity of a particular claim about newborns
C. They formed the basis for revised interpretation of other behaviors of newborns
D. They derived from a methodology that turned out to be flawed
E. They challenged the distinction between imitative and nonimitative behavior in newborns
参考答案：E
根据文本最后一句可以知道Meltzoff and Moore的实验结果将新生儿对外界刺激的探索视为模仿。混淆了imitative and nonimitative behavior.

GRE阅读生词问题解决方案
GRE阅读考试文章很多来源于国外原版的期刊或杂志，话题覆盖面广，科技，自然，环保，社会，文化，工作，生物，地理等无不涉及，所以遇到生词在情理之中。但一部分考生遇到生词后就信心全失，慌乱至极，打破了自己原有的阅读节奏和速度，做题时也因为生词被卡壳，结果题目不仅没有解出，还影响了后面的做题速度和时间，可谓“一发动而迁全身”。对此，专家认为，生词的出现在所难免，只要大家有基本的词汇量，完全可以将生词的问题逐一击破。
1. 有时候生词属于比较专业的词汇，它们的出现不是为了考察考生的词汇量，更多的是检阅大家的应变和判断能力。尤其在题目中出现的所谓生词，更是可以坏事变好事，成为考生定位答案的线索词。
2. 有时候生词的含义可以在上下文中直接得到。在GRE阅读文章时遇到的生词，有相当一部分的含义可以通过多种猜测单词的方法得到，所以，在生词的周围或上下文寻找其解释不失为有效途径。
