四級(jí)考試閱讀理解技巧—— 怎樣回答閱讀理解中的詞匯問(wèn)題(下)

字號(hào):

關(guān)于詞匯問(wèn)題(Vocabu1ary) 
    3. 利用文章中對(duì)詞的定義猜測(cè)詞義
    Example?/p> 
    Such experiences are not unusual for the amateur conchologists, people who collect shells.
    Conchologists的意思可以根據(jù)該詞后面的同位解釋"people who collect shells"理解為收集貝殼的人或貝殼收藏家。
    Example :
    Jack is now a florist, who keeps a shop for selling flowers in our district.
    "florist" 的意思就是其后定語(yǔ)從句"who keeps a shop for selling flowers 所描述的"擁有一家專門賣花的商店的人",即"花店主"
    4. 利用文章中對(duì)詞的舉例及解釋猜 測(cè)詞義
    Example :
    Today young couples who are just starting their households of ten spend lots of their money on appliances ,for instance ,washing machines , refrigerators and color TVs.
    通過(guò)所舉的例子(washing machines ,refrigerators and color TVs)
    可以看出,"appliances" 應(yīng)是這些名詞的總稱,即"家用電器"。
    Example :
    Finally the enemy surrendered .They threw down their weapons and walked out of the home with their hands over their heads 
    通過(guò)后一句對(duì)"surrendered"的解釋:扔掉武器(throw down their weapons?。?舉起雙手(with their hands over heads?。┛芍湟馐?投降"
    5. 利用構(gòu)詞法知識(shí)(前綴和后綴)猜測(cè)詞義
    Example :
    They overestimate the interviewee's ability and asked him many difficult questions
    "estimate"是"估計(jì)"的意思,"over-"是前綴,意為"過(guò)分,過(guò)度,超 過(guò)"等,因此"overestimate"就是"高估"的意思 。
    Example :
    We were told that ours was the most spacious room in the hotel .That was why we had to pay so much for it .
    "spacious"是由"space(名詞,空間)"+"+-ious(形容詞后綴 "變化而來(lái)的,因此,可猜測(cè)其詞義為"寬敞"。
    各種各樣的前、后綴可以構(gòu)成名詞、形容詞、動(dòng)詞、副詞等,這些詞綴需要平時(shí)不斷地積累和記憶。掌握構(gòu)詞法知識(shí)是擴(kuò)大詞匯量和猜測(cè)生詞詞義的辦法。
