2011新gre考試實施以來，參加了新版gre考試的考生都覺得閱讀部分的題難度增加了，這主要是由于新gre考試邏輯閱讀需要考生的邏輯反應(yīng)一定要比以前更快，可能考生還是有點不習(xí)慣，或是沒有準備充足。那么，接下來的幾天，小編將給大家搜索整理一些新gre考試邏輯閱讀的練習(xí)題，希望考生能從平日的練習(xí)中總結(jié)規(guī)律，找到解題技巧。
Biologists have long maintained that two groups of pinnipeds, sea lions and walruses, are descended from a terrestrial bearlike animal, whereas the remaining group, seals, shares an ancestor with weasels. But the 5 recent discovery of detailed similarities in the skeletal structure of the flippers in all three groups undermines the attempt to explain away superficial resemblance as due to convergent evolution—the independent develop-ment of similarities between unrelated groups in 10 response to similar environmental pressures. Flippers may indeed be a necessary response to aquatic life,turtles, whales, and dugongs also have them. But the common detailed design found among the pinnipeds probably indicates a common ancestor. Moreover,15 walruses and seals drive themselves through the water with thrusts of their hind flippers, but sea lions use their front flippers. If anatomical similarity in the flippers resulted from similar environmental pressures, as posited by the convergent-evolution theory, one 20 would expect walruses and seals, but not seals and sea lions, to have similar flippers.(162 words)
1. The author implies that which of the following was part of the long-standing view concerning pinnipeds?
□A Pinnipeds are all descended from a terrestrial bearlike animal.
□B Pinnipeds share a common ancestor with turtles,whales, and dugongs
□C Similarities among pinnipeds are due to their all having had to adapt to aquatic life.
2. The author implies which of the following about the fact that turtles, whales, and dugongs all have flippers?
○A It can be explained by the hypothesis that turtles,whales, and dugongs are very closely related.
○B(yǎng) It can be explained by the idea of convergent evolution.
○C It suggests that turtles, whales, and dugongs evolved in separate parts of the world
○D It undermines the view that turtles, whales, and dugongs are all descended from terrestrial ancestors.
○E It is the primary difference between turtles, whales,and dugongs, on the one hand, and pinnipeds, on the other.
3. Select the sentence in the passage in which the author shows that the implication of the common view is contradicted by a new finding.
答案：C/ B /But the common detailed design found among the pinnipeds probably indicates a common ancestor
以上即是閱讀練習(xí)題，對于新gre考試邏輯閱讀，考生除了采取題海戰(zhàn)術(shù)，其實更應(yīng)該做的就是總結(jié)。如果能從平日的練習(xí)中找到解新gre考試邏輯閱讀題的思路，那么，要比采取題海戰(zhàn)術(shù)更好。
