填空教程EX.11-19
8 Y0 s! f$ E% R  L1 o2 w1.After a slow sales start early in the year, mobile homes have been gaining favor as___to increasingly expensive conventional housing.
A. reaction B. an addition C. an introduction D. an alternative E. a challenge
选E为什么不对.注意前面是gaining favor,而且根据a slow sale start early也就是代表一种选择上的替换，如果是challenge就不能表达这层意思，也就是违背了重复原则。选择应该就最直接重现原文的词来体现一致性。
) l- G8 P/ ~$ I2 A$ m2.New research on technology and public policy focuses on how seemingly ___design features, generally overlooked in most analyses of public works projects or industrial machinery, actually ___social choices of profound significance.
A. insignificant, mask B. inexpensive, produce C. innovative, represent D. ingenious, permit E . inopportune, hasten
( ?: N1 n: `9 S3 ^1 ]如果不看第一个空的选择，那么第二个填represent可以吗？这个问题没有实际意义，因为填空一旦出现两个空，那么就意味着两个空必须在这个句子的整体意义上取得平衡和一致，单个空的满足只能就脱离另一个空的单句下成立，从这个意义上说，不光是represent, produce, permit等等其实在一定语境中都是可能的。
: c+ v3 Q+ y. a3 z3.To test the ___of borrowing from one field of study to enrich another simply investigate the extent to which terms from the one may, without forcing, be ___the other.
A. risk, confused with B. universality, applied to C. decorum, illuminated by D.rate, superseded by E. efficacy, utilized by
选D为什么不对。注意这里的重复第二个空的元素是“borrow……enrich”从这个意义上说supersede表示取代，就是拿一样东西代替了另一样，那么不存在enrich的意思，所以D不对！
, _+ ^( j+ _9 Y- n+ {8 c: n4.It has been argued that politics as___, whatever its transcendental claims, has always been the systematic organization of common hatreds.
: j! J" Z! a0 G& `. CA. a theory B. an ideal C. a practice D. a contest E. an enigma
选A为什么不对。根据后面的重复成分whatever来判定，政治的特点就是带有transcendental claims，而theory没有直接体现出这层意思来。也许你要说它包含啊，是其上义词，这是陈圣元的理论，但是却是有问题的理论之一，他如果这样没有办法完美解释，对我来说，只要记住“重复”，选出最直接体现的，没有我们再考虑“上义”，所以A显然在这里不对！
5.In failing to see that the justice’s pronouncement merely___previous decisions rather than actually establishing a precedent, the novice law clerk___the scope of the justice’s judgment.
- G( ^$ }3 g! `A. synthesiszed, limited B. overturned, misunderstood C. endorsed, nullified D. qualified, overemphasized E. recapitulated, defined
选B为什么不对。注意如果是B的话，显然overturn跟前面的merely是不协调的，事实上根据重复原则，previous decisions 和a precedent重复，merely与actually对应，那么填空的词和establish应该是对应的，rather than代表反义，那么显然是填not establish,所以不建立当然是服从或者推翻，而由merely可知推翻和建立其实都是同样程度的一种“革命”性行为，法律的判决更多的只是从法典的先例中去获得标准，这点正好符合merely所要表现的内涵。因此，填空有时难，有时学问大就关乎一种和谐式的重复，尽管不追究学术背景，但是很可惜NO题中有些题是ETS的败笔，这我认为也算是一题，但在西方，这种制度家喻户晓。
6.Few of us take the pains to study our cherished conviction; indeed, we almost have a natural___doing so.
4 P; ]3 s( Z" x4 V, t) ?A. aptitude for B. repugnance to C. interest in D. ignorance of E. reaction to
8 h7 {/ g% c& H3 l  t& K为什么如果没有INDEED就可以选D。indeed代表程度上的递进，也就是说我们填的词要比take the pains程度更深，如果没有indeed,也就是说没有了这一层递进的提示，那么只要表示否定这样做的意思的词都是可以候选的，上下分隔一致。
7.Our new tools of systems analysis, powerful though they may be, lead to ___theories, especially, and predictably, in economics and political science, where productive approaches have long been highly___.
: \( J& v4 j* `: RA. pragmatic, speculative B. inelegant, efficacious C. explanatory, intuitional D. wrongheaded, convergent E. simplistic, elusive
, n* i# U. ^, d, y5 ?9 n) m为什么选A不对。注意A错在speculative和pragmatic不是严格意义上的反义词，speculative是带有没有确实证据的推测性的东西，而pragmatic对应的反面是理想化的东西。更好的解释应该从powerful though they may be入手，功能强大的工具，然后第一空要解决though要带来的转折，什么样的词可以呢？pragmatic显然是powerful的承接，不可能选。事实上功能强大的东西往往结构复杂，我们在考场上不可能推到这里，但是符合的只有E。
$ C( B7 e  B& f2 a/ W0 z8.Charlotte Salonmon’s biography is a reminder that the currents of private life, however diverted, dislodged, or twisted by ___public events, retain their hold on the___recording them.
A. transitory, culture B. dramatic, majority C. overpowering, individual D. conventional, audience E. relentless, institution
为什么选E不对.E中第二个空的根据是什么？重复原则！！private life是个明显的主体词，下文必定要重复，recording them的them就是currents，那么谁来record，既然是private life，那么肯定是个人，选出答案。
, u, t, n: t2 S7 ^8 J3 D3 Q% B9.Walpoles’s art collection was huge and fascinating, and his novel The Castle of Otranto was never out of print; none of this mattered to the Victorians, who___him as, at best, ____.
, G9 U3 r9 U6 EA. dismissed, insignificant B. judged, worthwhile C. revered, talented D. reviled, meager E. taunted, dangerous
这道题目的句意我不理解。这个没什么难理解的，就是上半句说W的著作广为流传，而且某部书很畅销，那么作者的书和作者是同位元素，就是说作者的名望高，水平高！那么后面是个转折，V这个人不已为然，显然是同大众意见不同了，at best给出了程度，那么你看选什么能够既不像上半句表达的那样“狂热”又不失at best的约束？
10.There is some ___the fact that the author of a book as sensitive and informed as Indian Artisans did not develop her interest in Native American art until adulthood, for she grew up in a region rich in American Indian culture.
A. irony in B. satisfaction in C. doubt about D. concern about E. presumptuousness in
she生长在a region rich in American Indian culture，她在成年以前的书as sensitive and informed as Indian Artisans，那么did not develop her interest in Native American art，为什么这样会irony？从小长在本土美国文化艺术的环境中，居然对其熟视无睹而没有真正萌发写作动机，却在成年后才产生，这点就是一个irony，比如你手里明明拿着钥匙却还在找钥匙，不是讽刺意义吗？
) u: r& ^( v2 n% I11.The notion that cultural and biological influences ___determine cross-cultural diversity is discredited by the fact that, in countless aspects of human existence, it is cultural programming that overwhelmingly accounts for cross-population variance.
# O( F5 E4 {9 h8 q) s. l6 m. d% n  [A. jointly B. completely C. directly D. equally E. eventually
为什么选C不对 cross-cultural=cross-population?注意重复原则，这里明显是要填overwhelmingly的构成反义关系的词，你的C directly的根据在哪里？注意，GRE的本质就是逻辑推理，答案是有根据的，上半句提到两个因素，下半句只有一个主导了，那么显然上半句要构成反义，必须两个因素同时作用。
/ e+ `( o9 `& M3 w10.Even those who disagreed with Carmen’s views faulted her for expressing them , for the positions she took were as___ as they were controversial.
A. complicated B. political C. subjective D. commonplace E. thoughtful
为什么选C不对。主观并不表示有争议，填空的词应该跟controversial同义相近。
% A. o' d5 ^" e$ z5 t1 I11.No one is ___about Stephens; he inspires either uncritical adulation or profound___ in those who work for him.
A. neutral, antipathy B. infuriated, aversion C. worried, anxiety D. enthusiastic, veneration E. apprehensive, consternation
为什么选D不对。D如果正确，那么第一个空显然应该填入enthusiastic的反义词，因为都是一种褒扬和尊敬，那么没有人是“冷漠的”才对！
