GRE閱讀理解層次的劃分告訴我們這樣一件事情，那就是什麼叫做讀懂了一篇GRE文章，如果你在這三個層次上都把握地很好的.話，這篇文章你就可以說讀得比較懂了，而且做到了這三個層次的話，我相信你做後面的題目是肯定沒有問題的。那麼具體而言，怎樣才能把握好GRE閱讀理解的這三個層次呢?筆者認爲關鍵是做好以下的六點：
(1) 讀出what is the focus or what are the key points?
(2) 明白what is the passage about? Or what is the main idea?
(3) Can you separate the main ideas from supporting evidence and ideas?
(4) 讀出what are the relationships between main idea and other ideas or evidence?
(5) 讀出What words define relationships among ideas?
(6) Can you separate the author’s own altitude towards different ideas?
