قدیما بر و بچ به شوخی می گفتن که تست های ِ GRE رو با دیکشنری هم نمی شه زد. به تازگی به این نتیجه رسیدم که این شوخی نبوده. نمونه اش این تست ِ :
10. SCOLD : BERATE ::
A. predict : foresee
B. threaten : impend
C. counsel : advise
D. retreat : retire
E. respect : venerate
حالا معنی ِ کلمات ِ بالا رو در oxford advanced dictionary با هم می خونیم:
scold: to speak angrily to sb, especially a child, because they have done sth wrong
berate: to criticize or speak angrily to sb because you do not approve of sth they have done
predict: to say that sth will happen in the future
foresee: to think sth is going to happen in the future; to know about sth before it happens
threaten: to say that you will cause trouble, hurt sb, etc. if you do not get what you want
impend: NO SUCH WORD IN THE DICTIONARY
counsel: advise, especially given by older people or experts
advise: to tell sb what you think they should do in a particular situation
retreat: to move away from a place or an enemy because you are in danger or because you have been defeated
retire: to stop doing your job, especially because you have reached a particular age or because you are ill/sick
respect: feeling of admiration for sb/sth because of their good qualities or achievements
venerate: to have and show a lot of respect for sb/sth that is considered to be holy or very important
نتیجه این که گزینه های ِ A, C, E هر سه درستن. پس از دیکشنری کاری بیش از این ساخته نیست. اما با همین اطلاعات می شه به این تست پاسخ داد که چون کی بورد ِ فارسی الان ندارم فردا می نویسم.
فردا نوشت: نکته این ِ که گزینه ی ِ A و C هر دو رابطه ی ِ هم معنی بودن دارن پس چون مثل ِ هم َن هر دو غلط َن. این جا دیکشنری یادش رفته بگه که BERATE از SCOLD شدید تره.
