2022GRE考试真题卷(4)本卷共分为2大题50小题,作答时间为180分钟,总分100分,60分及格。一、单项选择题(共25题,每题2分。每题的备选项中,只有一个最符合题意) 1.Feminist criticshave often pondered whether a postmodern language may be articulated that obviates the essentialist arrogance of much modernist and some feminist discourse and does not reduce feminism to silences or a purely negative and reactionary stance. This ideal may be actualized in a discourse that recognizes itself as historically situated, as motivated by values and, thus, political interests, and as a human practice without transcendent justification. The author Dorothy Allison meets these criteria by focusing on women who have been marginalized by totalizing forces and ideas, while simultaneously reminding the reader, through the wide range of women that she portrays and their culpability in her protagonists predicaments, that unlike pure and transcendent heroes, women are real characters and morally complex. Allison insists that humans are burdened with the responsibility of fashioning their own stories, quotidian as they may be, and .while these will never offer the solace of transcendent justification, the constant negotiation between the word and the world avoids reticence on the one hand and the purely negative on the other.According to the passage, the dynamics of small group economies differ from those of large group economies in that_.Athe members of small groups tend to have a greater degree of social regularity than the members of large groupsBpeople in small groups carry an advantage in the arena of exchange because they are tied by social obligationCthe manufacturer of a commodity in a small group economy is more likely to be known by the members of the groupDthe people who contribute to the production of a gift are less essential to small groups than those who exchange commodities are in large groupsEa system of social obligation diminishes the number of parties necessary to a gift-giving transaction 2.Feminist criticshave often pondered whether a postmodern language may be articulated that obviates the essentialist arrogance of much modernist and some feminist discourse and does not reduce feminism to silences or a purely negative and reactionary stance.

It would not prove that certain dinosaurs were capable of regulating their temperatures internally. One likely source of such a discovery would come from annual growth bands of dinosaur teeth. The fact that no biotechnology yet exists to elucidate thermoregulation biochemistry proves such a discovery is impossible. The discovery would be profound, because oxygen 18 is only found in fossil records where there is seasonal variation.A and onlyB and onlyC and onlyDand onlyE, , and only 5.Feminist criticshave often pondered whether a postmodern language may be articulated that obviates the essentialist arrogance of much modernist and some feminist discourse and does not reduce feminism to silences or a purely negative and reactionary stance.
