GRE绿皮书填空 E32 E34

首先第一句考题语法不对,应该是
1 Though many medieval women possessed devotional books that had belonged to their daughters,（什么什么）is scarce,which suggests that such bequests were __ and required no__.
结尾的提问
选AE,为什么不选AE
第二个不是“AE” 吧.
尽管如此,答案的确是 AE
bequest 的意思是 遗赠
第一个空：
三个选项
A customary = normal,routine,therefore requires no documentation
B unselfish 一般来说,a mother gifting something to her daughter is more an act of love rather than an act of unselfishness,因此排除 B
C spurious 欺骗性的,伪造的 在这里不适用
第二个空
既然第一个空填 customary ,那么第二个空填 documentation 就很 logical .
第二个考题有错
下面提供第二和第三考题的原来格式：
2.Although Shakespeare received little formal education,scholarship has
in recent years ______ the view that he was _______ the work of
classical authors.
(A) substantiated..unimpressed by
(B) eroded..obsessed by
(C) supported..oblivious to
(D) questioned..influenced by
(E) undermined..unfamiliar with （undermine = 弱化/反驳某论点）
答案是 E
第三个考题是
3 In most Native American cultures,an article used in prayer or ritual is
made with extraordinary attention to and richness of detail:it is
decorated more _ than a similar article intended for _ use.
(A) delicately..vocational
(B) colorfully..festive
(C) creatively..religious
(D) subtly..commercial
(E) lavishly..everyday
答案是 E
something intended for EVERYDAY use is usually not LAVISHLY decorated （华丽装置）,and lavishness is the correct word which summarizes "extraordinary attention to and richness of detail".
整的来说,这个考题很不容易做,更别说考题本身有错,这更增加了考题的难度.
再问： 2 第二题我刚开始打错了原题题目。我现在就想知道符合现在的考题形式的答案。 3 你的解释固然很好。但是如果逆着想，关于religious的事情和commercial的事情有可能也是lavishly。 因为能回答的人很少，而且你已经讲的很详细，只是我还问明白。所以采纳为满意答案的可能性最大。
再答： 2 Although Shakespeare received little formal education, scholarshiphas in recent years __ the view that he was __ the work of classical authors. Blank(i) A substantiated B supported C undermined Blank(ii) D obsessed by E oblivious to F unfamiliar with 选CF，为什么不选BD Undermined 的意思是“击破了”，“否定了” 句子是说 Although Shakespeare received little formal education,scholarship has in recent years undermined the view that he was unfamiliar withthe work of classical authors. 虽然莎士比亚没有接受了很多正规教育，学术（或研究）已近年来否定了莎翁不熟悉古典作品的论点。 显然。CF 是最佳选择。 第三题虽然按你的说法可以填 religious 或 commercial, 但 everyday 是最佳选择。
再问： 1 Though many medieval women possessed devotional books that had belonged to their daughters, formal written evidence of women bequeathing books to their daughters is scarce, ……我一开始选的CD。为什么不能选C？
再答： 1 Though many medieval women possessed devotional books thathad belonged to their daughters, formal written evidence of women bequeathingbooks to their daughters is scarce, which suggests that such bequests were __and required no__. Blank(i) A customary B unselfish C spurious Blank(ii) D approval E documentation F discretion 我一开始选的CD。为什么不能选C？ C spurious 的意思是“欺骗性的”，“故意欺诈的” It is inappropriate to suggest that mothers bequeathing books to their daughters is spurious. (We expect mothers to bequeath out of love, not out of intent to deceive.) 因此这个选择是错的。
