GRE阅读改革 ETS时隔多年再次提出GRE改革，此举使得现行的GRE考试即将成为历史，而由于众多的不确定因素使得目前的split test的形式很有可能再明年6月份成为最后一场。正因为此举，目前考试考位非常紧俏，针对即将到来的GRE改革，笔者针对其中的阅读部分进行了一下分析。 　　新的GRE考试当中关于阅读部分所进行的形式上调整是比较明显的，首先从题目所占的比例上来说传统GRE考试语文部分中阅读理解和句子填空试题仅占语文考试题目比重的不到二分之一(18/38)，而新GRE考试则主要由这两部分试题组成。虽然表面上来说，从题目的总体数量上从38道题缩减到了20道，但是由于当中增加了阅读的比重，所以导致考生在做题当中阅读的量增大，相应的难度也有所提升，尤其是与之前同学们大量背单词去解决相对应的类比和反义产生了比较大的背离。针对这样的改革，同学在备考的过程当中应当更加强调阅读能力上的提升，同时针对变化，考生应当作出相应的调整，提升深入的理解能力和分析逻辑的能力。以具体的ETS官方所给出的阅读理解的样题为例，我们来看看到底发生了怎样的变化。 　　首先题型上从原来的传统的五选一变成了三种不同的考题 ? Multiple-choice Questions — Select One Answer Choice:?These are the traditional multiple-choice questions with five answer choices of which the examinee must select one。 第一种：多项选择题I(5选1) Multiple-choice Questions — Select One or More Answer Choices:?These provide three answer choices and ask the examinee to select all that are correct; one, two or all three of the answer choices may be correct. To gain credit for these questions, the examinee must select all the correct answers, and only those; there is no credit for partially correct answers。 第二种：多项选择题II(新题型)(在3个选择项中选择任意符合题意的答案，1项到3项均可，错选漏选不给分) Select-in-Passage:?The question asks the examinee to click on the sentence in the passage that meets a certain description. To answer the question, the examinee chooses one of the sentences and clicks on it; clicking anywhere on a sentence will highlight it。 第三种：段中点选题(新题型)(在段落中点选符合题设问题的答案句) ? 　　Policymakers must confront the dilemma that fossil fuels continue to be an indispensable source of energy even though burning them produces atmospheric accumulations of carbon dioxide that increase the likelihood of potentially disastrous global climate change. Currently, technology that would capture carbon dioxide emitted by power plants and sequester it harmlessly underground or undersea instead of releasing it into the atmosphere might double the cost of generating electricity. But because sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, deliver
