1、【ETS官方】GRE考试改革最新数学样题及解析GRE Revised General Test: Quantitative Reasoning Sample Questions FiguresThis document includes figures, which appear on screen. Following each figure on screen is text describing that figure. Readers using visual presentations of the figures may choose to skip parts of the te
2、xt describing the figure that begin with “Begin skippable figure description” and end with “End skippable figure description.” Mathematical Equations and ExpressionsThis document includes mathematical equations and expressions. Some of the mathematical equations and expressions are presented as grap
3、hics. In cases where a mathematical equation or expression is presented as a graphic, a verbal presentation is also given and the verbal presentation comes directly after the graphic presentation. The verbal presentation is in green font to assist readers in telling the two presentation-modes apart.
4、 Readers using audio alone can safely ignore the graphical presentations, and readers using visual presentations may ignore the verbal presentations.
