以下是gre考試閱讀部分經常會出現的經典句型，比如倒裝、省略等。通過這些實例句型，可以幫助考生了解和歸納知識點。
11. Such variations in size， shape，chemistry， conduction speed， excitation threshold，and the like as had been demonstrated in nerve cells remained negligible in significance for any possible correlation with the manifold dimensions of mental experience.
類似於這些已經被在神經細胞中證明的在大小、形狀、化學過程、產生的速度、興奮閾值及其類似的方面上所發生變化，當他們被用來與大腦的體驗以可能的方式聯繫起來的時候，他們在重要性上仍然是微不足道的。
12. It was possible to demonstrate by other methods refined structural differences among neuron types ; however , proof was lacking that the quality of the impulse or its condition was influenced by these differences , which seemed instead to influence the developmental patterning of the neural circuits . 有可能通過其他方法來證明神經元種類間的細微的結構差異;可是，這樣的證據是缺乏的，即神經衝動的性質或者狀態是受這些差異所影響的，而這些差異看起來卻能影響神經網絡的發育模式。
13. Although qualitative variance among nerve energies was never rigidly disproved，the doctrine was generally abandoned in favor of the opposing view，namely，that nerve impulses are essentially homogeneous in quality and are transmitted as common currency throughout the nervous system. 儘管在神經能量上存在著質的不同，這一點從來都沒有在嚴格的意義上被反對過，但是以上教條通常被拋棄掉，而轉向相反的觀點，即：神經衝動從根本上本質相同，而且被當作一種普通流在整個神經系統中傳播。
14. Other experiments revealed slight variations in the size，number， arrangement，and interconnection of the nerve cells，but as far as psycho neural correlations were concerned，the obvious similarities of these sensory fields to each other seemed much more remarkable than any of the minute differences. 儘管其他實驗顯示在神經細胞的大小、數量、排列和相互連接上有一些小的差異，但是就心理-神經的關係而言，這些感官區域彼此之間的明顯的相似性看起來比起微小的差異更為令人注目。
15. Although some experiments show that，as an object becomes familiar，its internal representation becomes more holistic and the recognition process correspondingly more parallel，the weight of evidence seems to support the serial hypothesis， at least for objects that are not notably simple and familiar.
雖然某些實驗表明，隨著一個物體變得熟悉起來，其內心再現圖像亦更具整體感，辨認過程相應地更趨於平行，但證據的砝碼似乎在支持序列假設，至少是對於那些不甚簡單、不甚熟悉的物體來說。
16. In large part as a consequence of the feminist movement，historians have focused a great deal of attention in recent years on determining more accurately the status of women in various periods.
在很大程度上，由於女權主義運動的緣故，史學家近年來匯聚了大量的注意力，來更為準確地確定婦女在各個歷史時期的地位。 Focus A on B;
17. If one begins by examining why ancients refer to Amazons , it becomes clear that ancient Greek descriptions of such societies were meant not so much to represent observed historical fact real Amazonian societies but rather to offer moral lessons on the supposed outcome of womens rule in their own society . 如果我們先研究一下為什麼古人會提到亞馬遜人，下面的一點就變得清晰了，那就是古希臘對於這種社會的廟睡不是太多的被用來表達觀察的歷史事實真正的亞麻遜社會的而是為了對於婦女在其社會中的統治的預期後果提供一種道德教導。
18. Thus，for instance，it may come as a shock to mathematicians to learn that the Schrodinger equation for the hydrogen atom is not a literally correct description of this atom，but only an approximation to a somewhat more correct equation taking account of spin，magnetic dipole，and relativistic effects;and that this corrected equation is itself only an imperfect approximation to an infinite set of quantum field-theoretical equations.
因此，舉例來說，對數學家而言，了解到下述情形可能會令其驚愕不已，即薛丁格的氫原子方程式並非是對該原子作出的一種絕然正確的描述，而僅僅是個近似值，趨近於一個在某種程度上更為正確的將自旋、磁性偶極子、以及相對論效應考慮在內的方程式;而這個得以糾正的方程式就其本身而言也只是一個不完美的近似值，趨近於無窮無盡的一整套量子場論方程式。
19. The physicist rightly dreads precise argument，since an argument that is convincing only if it is precise loses all its force if the assumptions on which it is based are slightly changed，whereas an argument that is convincing though imprecise may well be stable under small perturbations of its underlying assumptions.
物理學家恐懼於那些精確無誤的論據不無道理，因為某種只有在它是精確無誤的條件下才令人置信的論據，一旦它賴於建立其上的假設稍有變化，便會失去它一部的作用;而與此相反，一個儘管並不精確無誤但卻令人置信的論據，在其基本假設稍微受干擾的情況下，仍然有可能是站得住腳的。
20. However，as they gained cohesion，the Bluestockings came to regard themselves as a womens group and to possess a sense of female solidarity lacking in the salonnieres，who remained isolated from one another by the primacy each held in her own salon.
起初，藍襪女們確實模仿了法國沙龍女主人，將男性襄括到其小圈子中來。然則，隨著她們獲得的凝聚力，她們漸趨將自己視作一女性團體，並擁有了一種婦女團結意識，而這種意識在法國沙龍女主人身上則蕩然無存，因為她們每個人在其自己的沙龍中自視甚高而彼此孤立隔絕開來。
