ETS将在2011年下半年推出的新GRE考试。
关于其写作部分,不仅在考试形式(比如ISSUE写作时间、选题方式)上做出了调整,而且,ETS对于原有的topicpool也做了翻新工作。
对于考生备考来说,topicpool和AWINTRODUTION,这是ETS官方为考生提供的“维二”的宝贵复习资料。
此次的题库调整在很大程度上将改变传统备考和教学方法,不过可以先给大家吃一颗定心丸:
相对于老题库和考试形式,新GRE虽然挑战增多,但是从难度和备考方式方法,只要大家能使用好langlib的写作平台,并且使用好我后期推出的一系列教程,AW的备考过程将会是充实、有效而且快乐的。
本文主要是向大家展示issuetopicpool形式上的变化,具体内容(包括如何兼容新老题库、如何有效利用原有资源和方法、如何解读新题库等问题)我会在后续分析中一一为大家说明。

特点:
1、题目(topic)之后加入了针对性要求(STI,specifictaskinstructions),官方给出了两点重要提示:
“EachIssuetopicconsistsofanissuestatementorstatementsfollowedbyspecifictaskinstructionsthattellyouhowtorespondtotheissue”、“becausetheremaybemultipleversionsofsometopicswithsimilaroridenticalwordingbutwithdifferenttaskinstructions,itisveryimportanttoreadyourtesttopicanditsspecifictaskdirectionscarefullyandrespondtothewordingasitappearsintheactualtest.”例如:
老题库中ISSUE66Aspeoplerelymoreandmoreontechnologytosolveproblems,theabilityofhumanstothinkforthemselveswillsurelydeteriorate.
新题库中 ISSUE1Aspeoplerelymoreandmoreontechnologytosolveproblems,theabilityofhumanstothinkforthemselveswillsurelydeteriorate. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththestatementandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,youshouldconsiderwaysinwhichthestatementmightormightnotholdtrueandexplainhowtheseconsiderationsshapeyourposition.]
2、针对“1”中提到的“multipleversionsofsometopicswithsimilaroridenticalwordingbutwithdifferenttaskinstructions”,有很多组合。
例如:
老题库ISSUE5Anationshouldrequireallitsstudentstostudythesamenationalcurriculumuntiltheyentercollegeratherthanallowschoolsindifferentpartsofthenationtodeterminewhichacademiccoursestooffer.
新题库中 ISSUE6Anationshouldrequireallofitsstudentstostudythesamenationalcurriculumuntiltheyentercollege. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththerecommendationandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,describe specificcircumstances inwhich adoptingtherecommendationwouldorwouldnotbeadvantageousandexplainhowtheseexamplesshapeyourposition.]
新题库中 ISSUE14Anationshouldrequireallofitsstudentstostudythesamenationalcurriculumuntiltheyentercollege. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscussyourviewsonthepolicyandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,youshouldconsiderthepossibleconsequences of implementingthepolicyandexplainhowtheseconsequencesshapeyourposition.]
新题库中 ISSUE96Anationshouldrequireallofitsstudentstostudythesamenationalcurriculumuntiltheyentercollege. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththeclaim.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,besureto addressthemostcompellingreasonsand/orexamplesthatcouldbeusedto challenge yourposition.]
新题库中 ISSUE116Anationshouldrequireallofitsstudentstostudythesamenationalcurriculumuntiltheyentercollege. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththestatementandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,youshouldconsiderwaysinwhichthestatementmightormightnot holdtrue andexplain howtheseconsiderationsshapeyourposition.]
3、在“2”中提到的STI对全部149道新题只有6种,如下表:
1
Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththeclaimand thereason onwhichthatclaimisbased.
2
Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththeclaim.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,besureto addressthemostcompellingreasonsand/orexamplesthatcouldbeusedto challenge yourposition.

6
Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscussyourviewsonthepolicyandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,youshouldconsiderthe possibleconsequences of implementingthepolicyandexplainhowtheseconsequencesshapeyourposition.
4、对于表格上所提到的CLAIM+REASON+STI 形式,新题库中共出现十九道,同时有类似形式(
Somepeoplebelievethatxxx.Othersbelievethatxxx.)十六道,共计三十五题。
对于这种题目的写法会出现和以前很多转变,这里也将会是考生最难适应而且最容易出问题的地方,我将会专门针对这一点写一些东西。
例如:
新题库ISSUE120
Claim:
Thesurestindicatorofagreatnationmustbetheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists.
Reason:
Greatachievementsbyanation'srulers,artists,orscientistswillensureagoodlifeforthemajorityofthatnation'speople.
Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththeclaimandthereasononwhichthatclaimisbased.
新题库ISSUE121Somepeopleclaimthatyoucantellwhetheranationisgreatbylookingattheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists.Othersarguethatthesurestindicatorofagreatnationis,infact,thegeneralwelfareofallitspeople. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusswhichviewmorecloselyalignswithyourownpositionandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,youshouldaddressbothoftheviewspresented.]
5、如上第“1”点提到的CLAIM&REASON形式,很多题目构成了一种类似于辩论的形式。
属于brainstorming的prototypemodel,相关具体内容也将在专门讲解brainstorming的教程中给出。
例如:
辩题背景 ISSUE121Somepeopleclaimthatyoucantellwhetheranationisgreatbylookingattheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists.Othersarguethatthesurestindicatorofagreatnationis,infact,thegeneralwelfareofallitspeople.
正方观点 ISSUE113[Claim]Thesurestindicatorofagreatnationisnottheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists.[Reason]Thesurestindicatorofagreatnationisactuallythewelfareofallitspeople.
正方观点 ISSUE127Thesurestindicatorofagreatnationisnottheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists,butthegeneralwell-beingofallitspeople.
反方观点 ISSUE120[Claim]Thesurestindicatorofagreatnationmustbetheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists.[Reason]Greatachievementsbyanation'srulers,artists,orscientistswillensureagoodlifeforthemajorityofthatnation'speople.
反方观点 ISSUE145Thegeneralwelfareofanation'speopleisabetterindicationofthatnation'sgreatnessthanaretheachievementsofitsrulers,artists,orscientists.
6、关于题目实际调整,只有十三道题目和原题一模一样,有些题目在原题基础上做了细微调整;同时有的题目虽然形式变动较大,但是内容和原题基本一致;而且还出现了和原题库没有什么联系的新题。
例如:
新题=原题+STI
OLDISSUE66Aspeoplerelymoreandmoreontechnologytosolveproblems,theabilityofhumanstothinkforthemselveswillsurelydeteriorate.
NEWISSUE1Aspeoplerelymoreandmoreontechnologytosolveproblems,theabilityofhumanstothinkforthemselveswillsurelydeteriorate. [Writearesponseinwhichyoudiscusstheextenttowhichyouagreeordisagreewiththestatementandexplainyourreasoningforthepositionyoutake.Indevelopingandsupportingyourposition,youshouldconsiderwaysinwhichthestatementmightormightnotholdtrueandexplainhowtheseconsiderationsshapeyourposition.]
新题=微调原题+STI
OLDISSUE30Theprimarygoaloftechnologicaladvancementshouldbetoincreasepeople'sefficiencysothat everyonehasmoreleisuretime.
NEWISSUE91Theprimarygoaloftechnologicaladvancementshouldbetoincreasepeople'sefficiencysothat theyhavemoreleisuretime.

新题≈老题
