单词难，句子长，结构复杂是GRE阅读的“难度出圈”标签。大家都知道GRE词汇难，但在脱离运用的情况下去背单词，并不能完全感受其难点，毕竟GRE也不是仅考察词汇的拼写，最关键还是应用。

easy难度

On its face, the question seems absurd. One of the most gifted prodigies in the history of music, he produced his first masterpiece at sixteen. From then on, he was recognized as an artist of preternatural abilities, not only as a composer but also as a pianist and conductor.

Consequently, the 1950s saw a growing number of women engaged in farm labor, even though rhetoric in the popular media called for the return of women to domestic life.

prodigies

medium难度

Tocqueville, apparently, was wrong. Jacksonian America was not a fluid, egalitarian society where individual wealth and poverty were ephemeral conditions. At least so argues E. Pessen in his iconoclasticstudy of the very rich in the United States between 1825 and 1850.

Herbivores and carnivores develop different kinds of attention related to escaping or chasing. Although in both kinds of animal, arousal stimulates the production of adrenaline and norepinephrine by the adrenal glands, the effect in herbivores is primarily fear, whereas in carnivores the effect is primarily aggression.

egalitarian

【释义】adj. 平等主义的

【例句】Twenty years ago, dotcom evangelists wouldn't shut up about the web as a land of milk and honey, an egalitarian Eden.

ephemeral

【释义】n. 生命短暂的事物 adj. 短暂的，瞬息的

【例句】As a consequence North Africa was easily reconquered by the Byzantine emperor in the 530s, and the Vandals' influence on North African development was ephemeral and negligible.

iconoclastic

【释义】adj. 打破旧习的

【例句】This third volume sees language origins research becoming more eclectic and in many ways more iconoclastic.

carnivores

【释义】carnivore的复数形式 n. 食肉动物

【例句】The Acrocanthosaurus was a carnivore that looked similar to a Tyrannosaurus rex and ran on two legs to catch its prey.

arousal

【释义】n. 唤起

【例句】This belated arousal of the hunting instinct seemed to make almost another man of him.

adrenaline

【释义】n. 肾上腺素

【例句】After netting the equalizer, Gomez sprinted up the field in celebration, then felt fatigue start to set in as the adrenaline wore off.

hard难度

Seeing the two parts as a whole is encouraged by the novel’s sophisticated structure, revealed in its complex use of narrators and time shifts. Granted that the presence of these elements need not argue for an authorial awareness of novelistic construction comparable to that of Henry James, their presence does encourage attempts to unify the novel’s heterogeneous parts.

This is not because such an interpretation necessarily stiffensinto a thesis (although rigidity in any interpretation of this or of any novel is always a danger), but because Wuthering Heights has recalcitrant elements of undeniable power that, ultimately, resist inclusion in an all-encompassing interpretation.

sophisticated

【释义】adj. 见多识广的，老练的

【例句】Sophisticated investors took Moody's and S&P's word for it, and it turned out that the agencies didn't know what they were doing.

heterogeneous

【释义】adj. 各种各样的

【例句】Because of its heterogeneous nature, enterprise data requires more aggregation, analysis, and processing than B2C data.

stiffens

【释义】动词原形为stiffen v. 加强，使硬化

【例句】If the 93rd gains much more ground, the Russians might wake up to the threat the brigade poses—and send in reinforcements to stiffen local defenses.

rigidity

【释义】n. 僵硬，强直

【例句】Flexible glass provides some rigidity to the otherwise squishy plastic display.

recalcitrant

【释义】adj. 不守规章的，难以控制的

【例句】But Smith managed to rally and to learn, through trial and error, how to milk what he needed out of an oftenrecalcitrant medical system.

从阅读文章的难易程度来看，单个词汇的难度区别不是很大，但随着题目难度的加深，文章中难词的密度、频率不断增加，尤其科普性较强的文章出现了更多行业专业术语，如果对这类的词汇很陌生，会一定程度上影响对文章的理解。

GRE的阅读素材主要来源于自然科学、人文社科和商业类的期刊或杂志，熟悉一些专业学术词有助于把握文章内容，所以建议大家在平时的阅读训练中就要留意词汇积累。专业的天津GRE秋季培训就选新航道天津学校GRE秋季课程，新航道天津学校GRE秋季1V1个性化定制课：专属定制1V1课程、专注度更高、互动性更强、更多尊享增值服务。
