GMAT阅读部分的难度一直都被认为比较高，特别是一些高频题型常会让缺乏解题思路和技巧的考生觉得头疼。下面小编就结合实例讲解GMAT阅读中的经典高频拟真难题思路技巧，帮助大家提升阅读得分效率和解题速度。
今日练习题为阅读题，题目如下
文章：
Current feminist theory, in validating women’s own stories of their experience, has encouraged scholars of women’s history to view the use of women’s oral narratives as the methodology, next to the use of women’s written autobiography, that brings historians closest to the "reality" of women’s lives. Such narratives, unlike most standard histories, represent experience from the perspective of women, affirm the importance of women’s contributions, and furnish present-day women with historical continuity that is essential to their identity, individually and collectively.
Scholars of women’s history should, however, be as cautious about accepting oral narratives at face value as they already are about written memories. Oral narratives are no more likely than are written narratives to provide a disinterested commentary on events or people. Moreover, the stories people tell to explain themselves are shaped by narrative devices and storytelling conventions, as well as by other cultural and historical factors, in ways that the storytellers may be unaware of. The political rhetoric of a particular era, for example, may influence women’s interpretations of the significance of their experience. Thus a woman who views the Second World War as pivotal in increasing the social acceptance of women’s paid work outside the home may reach that conclusion partly and unwittingly because of wartime rhetoric encouraging a positive view of women’s participation in such work.
1. The passage is primarily concerned with
A contrasting the benefits of one methodology with the benefits of another
B describing the historical origins and inherent drawbacks of a particular methodology
C discussing the appeal of a particular methodology and some concerns about its use
D showing that some historians’ adoption of a particular methodology has led to criticism of recent historical scholarship
E analyzing the influence of current feminist views on women’s interpretations of their experience
正确答案：
C
2. According to the passage, scholars of women’s history should refrain from doing which of the following?
A Relying on traditional historical sources when women’s oral narratives are unavailable
B Focusing on the influence of political rhetoric on women’s perceptions to the exclusion of other equally important factors
C Attempting to discover the cultural and historical factors that influence the stories women tell
D Assuming that the conventions of women’s written autobiographies are similar to the conventions of women’s oral narratives
E Accepting women’s oral narratives less critically than they accept women’s written histories
正确答案：
E
3. According to the passage, each of the following is a difference between women’s oral narratives and most standard histories EXCEPT:
A Women’s oral histories validate the significance of women’s achievements.
B Women’s oral histories depict experience from the point of view of women.
C Women’s oral histories acknowledge the influence of well-known women.
D Women’s oral histories present today’s women with a sense of their historical relationship to women of the past.
E Women’s oral histories are crucial to the collective identity of today’s women.
正确答案：
C
题目详解：
文章的七经八脉
现在的女权主义理论，鼓励学者们用口述者所说的历史来作为一个研究历史的方法---有很多好处但是要小心---列举了两个需要小心之处并对第二个要小心的地方举了一个例子。
这篇文章从结构上看就是评述用口述来做历史依据的这样一个方法的文章。结构相对简单，文中的难句也不多。
第一题
题目释义：
主旨题目
考点：
主旨(Main idea)
旨在考察我们对文章整体的把握程度，对文章的结构的分析能力和把控能力，以及对作者逻辑的判断。
这篇文章的主旨较为容易确定，文章一直在评论“口述”这样一个方法，后面也指出了这个方法需要注意些什么。总而言之，作者是想要去介绍这样一个方法的。
选项分析：
(A) 比较两个方法的获益程度。文中提及了两个方法---口述和笔述。但实际上来讲，作者在行文中没有比较过两者的优劣，而是着重介绍口述这个方法及其需要注意的问题。
(B) 介绍一个特定的方法的历史起源和一些内在的不足。这个选项后半句可以勉强算对，但前半句中作者并没有提及过这个方法的起源。
(C) Correct。讨论一个方法吸引人的地方和用这个方法的一些担心。这个归纳的太好了。把文章的基本内容全包括了。
(D) 展示说有些历史学家采用的一个特定的方法引起了近来历史学术的批评。这个选项没有什么根据，作者第二段说的内容是说要小心些什么，并不是批评这个方法。
(E) 分析现代女权主义者的观点怎么影响女人们忆述她们的经历。作者提到了需要注意的一些可能会影响准确性的因素。但是这道题目问的是主旨，这个属于细节。所以该选项错误。
第二题
题目释义：
细节题目
考点：
支持主题(Supporting ideas)
旨在考察我们对文章细节的认知
这道题目需定位在最后一段整段，小心之处即是学者们需要注意的，也是从这个地方才可以找出学者不应去做什么。
选项分析：
(A) 当没有女性口述者的描述的时候就依靠传统的历史资源。文中没有提到类似没有“口述”怎么办。所以我们也无从得知学者们应不应这么做。
(B) 仅仅注重政治言论修辞对女性观点的影响而不注重其他等重要的因素。这个选项定位在“the stories people tell to explain themselves are shaped by narrative devices and storytelling conventions, as well as by other cultural and historical factors, in ways that the storytellers may be unaware of.”但是作者并没有说不注意到其他的因素可不可以。所以这个选项也不正确。
(C) 试图去发现影响女性的口述故事的文化和历史的因素。文章中没有提及是否要去考察这些因素。所以这个也不能从文章中推出学者们应不应做这件事。不过就文章的意思来看，这样做也许会有帮助的，至少不用抑制学者们去做。
(D) 假设女性自传的惯用手法和女性口述者的惯用手法是一致的。文中没有提到笔述者的惯用手法。所以我们无从判断是否应该避免假设这两者的惯用手法一致。
(E) Correct. 接受口述的不像接受笔述的历史那样苛刻要求。定位在第一句话“Scholars of women's history should, however, be as cautious about accepting oral narratives at face value as they already are about written memories. ”。作者希望的是更加小心，即可以认为是要更加苛刻。所以该选项为正确选项。
第三题
题目释义：
细节题目
考点：
支持主题(Supporting ideas)
旨在考察我们对文章细节的认知
这个题目定位就是第一段。“unlike”后面是重点。但是前面也会有所涉及。主要就是找，不用进行逻辑推断，比较简单。注意题目问的是“Except”。
选项分析：
(A) 口述者承认女性的成就的重要性。定位在“affirm the importance of women's contributions”。
(B) 口述者从女性的经验的角度来描述历史。定位在“represent experience from the perspective of women”
(C) Correct. 口述者承认有名的女人的影响。文中没有提到。
(D) 口述者用女性历史的观点来描述当下的女人。定位在“furnish present-day women with historical continuity that is essential to their identity”
(E) 口述者对于当今女性的集体身份是至关重要的。定位句同D。
