2015英语阅读理解满分智囊团:猜词义的方法

阅读理解猜词义的方法

一、类属法

即通过类属来推测词义。如:

■Bananas, oranges, pineapples, coconuts and some other kinds of fruit grow in warm areas.

说明:从句意我们知道pineapples 和coconuts 与bananas, oranges是同类事物,同属水果(准确地说是“菠萝”和“椰子”)。

二、推理法

即根据文章的前后语境推出生词的词义。如:

■That museum is so immense t hat it will be impossible to see all the exhibits in one day.

说明:既然一天之内看不完所有的展品,那么immense 的意思应该是“很大”了。

■Everyone agreed that the woman in the photo was gorgeous. It was easy to see why she had won the beauty contest.

说明:既然“她在选美比赛中获胜”,说明她“很美丽”(gorgeous)。

三、列举法

即通过对文章所列举的事物来猜测生词的词义。如:

■Children like such creatures as dogs and monkeys.

说明:像dogs 和monkeys 之类的“creatures”,显然creatures 的意思应是“动物”。

■In your spare time, you may look through any of these periodicals: Time Magazine, News Week, or The New Worker.

说明:periodical 是生词,但根据其后所列举的例子,我们可以推测出它的意思可能是“期刊”或“杂志”。

四、构词法

即根据前缀、后缀、复合、派生等构词知识判断生词的词义。如:

■Overwork may cause diseases.

说明:前缀over- 的意思是“过分的,过量的”,故overwork 的意思应为“工作过度”。

■There was a dissatisfied look in the manager’s eyes.

说明:satisfied 的意思是“满意的”,前缀dis- 的意思是“不”,故dissatisfied 的意思应该是“不满意的”。

五、对比法

即根据文章前后的对比关系确定生词的词义。如:

■He had been getting better, but during the night his condition deteriorated .

说明:句中的but 表明deteriorate 应该与get better 的意思相反,即“恶化”。

■In many countries there are two financial extremes, from penury to great wealth.

说明:上文说两个经济上的极端,那么下文中penury 应与great wealth 相对,即表示“贫困”。

■Mrs. Smith is loquacious while her husband is the silent type.

说明:while 表对比,意为“而”,所以loquacious 应是silent 的反义,即“多嘴的”。

■If you agree, draw a circle; and a cross if you dissent.

说明:既然画圈表示同意,那么画叉便是“不同意”(dissent)。

六、同位法

英语阅读-根据上下文猜测词义的技巧

三、词汇题解题技巧 词汇题一般会明确地告诉考生出题点在哪里,不需要考生查找所考查内容。它可以考一个单词的含义,一个词组的意思,或者考一个句子的弦外之音。 词汇题常见提问方式如下: The word “accentuate” (Line 4, Para.3) most probably means _____. What is the meaning of …? The word “colonies” (Line 2, Para.4) refers to _____. T he statement “The business of America is business” probably means “_____”. The phrase “puts it down to” (Line 1, Para3) is closest in meaning to “_____”. By “white elephant” the author refers to _____. 实例讲解: 原文: This is the Shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there. 题目: 60. “Shadowland”in the last sentence refers to____ .

A) the wonderland one often dreams about B) the bright future that one is looking forward to C) the state of uncertainty before one's final goal is reached D) a world that exists only in one's imagination 此题可以利用并列关系来求解。首先,and后面的句子告诉我们“任何有梦想的人必须要学会在那里生活”,这暗含了“那里”不好的环境。再从and可知,两个分句的逻辑是一致的,据此Shadowland也应该是不利的环境,故选择C项。 考句子含义的,如果句子简单,一般在上下文中寻找答案;如果句子复杂,则更加倾向于在句子内部找答案。 下面介绍一些常用的根据上下文猜测词义的技巧。 第一,针对性解释。 针对性解释是作者为了更好的表达思想,在文章中对一些重要的概念、难懂的术语或词汇等所作的解释。这些解释提供的信息具有明确的针对性,利用它们猜词义比较容易。 1.根据定义猜测词义 如果生词是句子或段落所解释的定义,理解句子或段落本身就是推断词义。例如:

(完整word版)新初二英语阅读理解猜测词义题

如何猜测阅读理解题中的生词词义 词汇是阅读理解的基础的基础。我们必须掌握教材中所学所有的单词和词组;了解构词法知识,如熟记一些常见的前缀、后缀,以及词语的合成和转化等;并且要进行大量的课外阅读扩大自己的词汇量。尽管如此,在阅读中还是不可避免会遇到生词或者熟词生义,因此,我们必须学会如何猜测词义。任何一个词语,在一定的上下文中只能表示一个确定的词义。据此,我们可以尽可能地利用上下文来猜测词义,即从已知推求未知,也就是用我们所熟悉的词或短语来猜测我们不熟悉的词的词义。猜测词义时,我们可以从以下几个方面来考虑: 一、根据定义或解释猜测词义 A person who is skilled at making or repairing wooden objects is called a carpenter. What does the word “carpenter” mean in Chinese? A.诗人 B.木匠 C.厨师 D.伐木工人 通过理解定语从句的意思,能猜出carpenter是B“木匠” A bag is useful and the word “bag” is usef ul. It gives us some interesting phrases(短语). One is “ to let the cat out of the bag”. It is the same as “to tell a secret”…. Now when someone lets out (泄漏) a secret, he “lets the cat out of the bag.” John “lets the cat out of the bag” means he ______. A. makes everyone know a secret B. the woman bout a cat C. buys a cat in the bag D. sells the cat in the bag 在这篇文章里,“let the cat out of the bag”虽然是一个新出现的短语,但紧接着后面就给出解释It is the same as “to tell a secret”根据这一解释,我们就可判断出正确答案应为A。 二、根据情景和逻辑进行判断 As they go around town, the police help people. Sometimes they find lost children. They take the children home. If the police see a fight, they put an end to it right away. Sometimes people will ask the police how to get to a place in town. The police can always tell the people which way to go. They know all the streets and roads well. In the text, “put an end to” means “______”. A. Stop B. Cut C. Kill D. fly 根据文章所提供的情景,如果警察看到有人在打架,他们肯定会去制止。因为制止打架斗殴是警察的职责。根据这一推理,答案应该是A。 三、根据并列或同位或对比关系猜测词义 There is a place on our earth where hot water and steam come up under the ground. It is on a large island in the Pacific Ocean. The island is North Island in New Zealand. What does the word “steam” mean in Chinese? A.自来水 B.大气 C.冰川 D.蒸汽 从语法上看,steam和hot water是并列关系,我们就以断定这两种东西是相关的,是同一类物质。在所给第四个选项中只有“蒸汽”有这种可能。 Though Tom’s face has been washed quite clean, his neck still remains grubby. What does the word “grubby” mean in Chinese? A.干净的 B.白皙的 C.肮脏的 D.整齐的 和clean意思相对的是“肮脏的”,因此可猜出句中grubby的意思是“肮脏的”
