A. Newspapers today are in many cases much less neutral in their political reporting than is commonly held by scholars.
B. Newspapers in the early United States normally declared quite openly their refusal to tell all sides of most political stories.
C. The editorial policies of some early United States newspapers became a counterweight to proponents of traditional values.
仍然是多项选择题,要求考生自主列出ABC正确的组合。正确答案为C。A选项极具干扰度,文首谈到的一种报纸变化乃是一种未来的趋势。而A项做出了GRE阅读中很敏感的比较,原文没有明确的关于现在报纸的风格比较。B项为文中让步层面内容:even when editors disingenuously stated that they aimed to tell all sides of a story,体会该叙述,与公开声明的程度不符。C项counterweight解释为平衡物,表达了文末关于一些支持republican编辑的态度。
10. In the context in which it appears, disingenuously most nearly means
A. insincerely B. guilelessly C. obliquely D. resolutely E. pertinaciously
此题即为新GRE在取消词汇部分后,做出的相应调整。把部分词汇转移到阅读部分来考察,取代之前单纯的词之间的逻辑关系,这种做法也是吸收了TOEFL阅读考察中的部分经验。disingenuously作为GRE重点词汇,为ingenuous反义。即使考生现场不认识该单词,也可以从上下文逻辑关系得到提示。前半句because neutrality was not a goal of early national newspaper editing基本意群表达非单纯目的, 后半句even when editors disingenuously stated that they aimed to tell all sides of a story声明事务的方方面面。从之间相反关系推理,state动词的修饰可以缩小到AC选项的范围。句子本身goal与aimed to为上下句平行结构的标志。
