编辑点评： 插入语在GRE阅读中是一个相当的难点。如何判断插入语，又如何练习呢?本文通过几个小例子给大家展示GRE阅读中的插入语。 Is this a defect，or are the authors working out of,or trying to forge,a different kind of aesthetic? 这究竟是一种缺陷呢，还是这些作者想要按照一种与众不同的美学体系进行创作，抑或是在试图创立一种与众不同的美学体系? 难句类型：插入语 解释：本句的句子既短，意思也不难理解，但插入语的干扰作用却极强。 意群训练：Is this a defect, or are the authors working out of, or trying to forge, a different kind of aesthetic? As my own studies have advanced,I have been increasingly impressed with the functional similarities between insect and vertebrate societies and less so with the structural differences that seem,at first glance,to constitute such an immense gulf between them. 随着我的研究不断深入，我对昆虫和脊椎动物群落之间的功能类似性印象愈来愈深刻，而对结构上的差异印象愈发淡漠，虽然这些结构上的差异初看上去似乎构成了二者间一条无法愈越的鸿沟。 难句类型：复杂修饰、插入语、省略 解释：本句子的中间一段impressed with the functional similarites between insect and vertebrate societies and less so with the structural differences容易令人看晕，其中的insect and vertebrate societies and less so with由两个and连接了三个部分，然而它们其实不是同一层次的并列，第一个and实际上是between insect societies and vertebrate societies的一部分，是并列的，而and之后的less so with其实是对于一个完整的表达方式I have been increasingly less impressed with的省略形式，去掉了与前面重复的成分。 |
