如何做好猜测词义类阅读题
【点石成金】
此题型题量有所减少,并趋于稳定,在阅读四大题型中所占分值最少。
在阅读中我们可以采用:
1.利用上下文,通过对应结构或平行结构中的同义词、反义词进行判断;
2.利用定语从句、同位语从句等进行判断;
3.根据关联词,如but, however, not only...but also进行判断等;
4.利用构词法进行判断。
一、猜测词义类题目常见的设问方式
1. The word "..." refers to/probably means __________.
2. The underlined word "..." could best be replaced by _________.
3. What do you think the expression "..." stands for?
4. By saying "..." we means _________.
5. "..." as used in the passage can best be defined as _________.
6. Which of the following words can take the place of the word "..."?
二、猜测词义的方法
1.通过上下文来猜测词义采用的方法:
1)通过定义或释义关系来猜测词义;
2)通过同位关系来猜测词义;
3)通过同义或反义关系来猜测词义;
4)通过描写来猜测词义;
5)通过因果关系来猜测词义;
6)通过句法功能来猜测词义;
7)通过上下文提供的信息来猜测词义;
2.通过构词法来猜测词义采用的方法:
1)转化:指词的形式不变而词性发生变化的一种构词法。如:nurse n.护士→v.护理;free adj.空闲的→v.释放。一般说来,转化后的词义与转化前的词义大致相符。
2)合成:指由两个或两个以上具有独立含义的单词组合成一个新的单词,主要有合成动词、合成形容词、合成名词等。
3)派生:指由一个词根加上前缀或后缀构成一个新的词。
