標題解釋:
考試裏的assume 的意思和生活裏的assume 的意思是一樣的
目前來看沒有一個(ge) 北美類的考試出現的單詞意思是非常冷門的:隻有我們(men) 自己接觸的意思的片麵,不存在考試的刻意刁難。
關(guan) 於(yu) assume 這個(ge) 單詞的意思,如果是研究生考試的(GRE/GMAT/LSAT)會(hui) 非常熟悉,是考察argument 邏輯關(guan) 係的題目。
但這個(ge) 單詞來閱讀題裏麵也是常出現。在SAT 的閱讀裏麵assume 作為(wei) 單詞題出現過兩(liang) 次
202205 Asia Question 36
原文
Bemard Shaw has pointed out that business in its proper sphere is, as it were, quite all right; but that when it assumes the role of governing, as in America it is a source of destructive behavior.
題目
As used in line 67,“assumes” most nearly means
undertakes
pretends
supposes
expects
202203 Asia Question 15
原文
Reacher, as the psychologist Toshio Yamagishi pointed out, the mistake is for participants to assume that they are emgaging in a social exchange interaction, in which people can reciprocate favors.
題目
As used in line 62, "assume" most nearly means
believe
pretend
undertake
guess
這兩(liang) 個(ge) 的意思本身不同,和邏輯題裏的assume 的意思都是不同的。
我們(men) 再看下如果閱讀其他題目裏出現的時候,assume 考察的是什麽(me) 意思
202203 NA Q51
題目
Based on Passage 2, it can most reasonably be inferred that the validity of the researchers' claim in the last paragraph of Passage 1 depends on which assumption about geologic conditions during the time of the breakup of Rodinia?
從(cong) 提問方式上看,和邏輯題裏的assume/assumption 的意思是類似的,就是某個(ge) 說法要成立的的“假設前提”。
比如
證據是 x=y
結論是 x=z
問:上麵這個(ge) 證據到結論的邏輯關(guan) 係要成立的“假設前提”(assumption)是什麽(me) ?
assumption: y=z
這當然是最直白的一種assumption 。
而我們(men) 在202203 NA Q51 這個(ge) 閱讀文本題問的assumption 的意思,就是這種邏輯裏的assumption。
又比如以下
202205 Asia Q11
It can most reasonably be inferred from the passage that researchers design their selflessness experiments with the assumption that
202112 Asia Q9
Based on the passage, the narrator assumes that in order for the US Expansion Project to succeed, employees planning it must be able to
以上,可以發現,除了單獨詞匯題裏的assume 的意思得看語境,其他的在閱讀題幹出現的考察的都是邏輯關(guan) 係裏的“假設前提”。
評論已經被關(guan) 閉。
