高考英语二轮专题复习猜想词义的技巧一般人在阅读时,都会不可防止地遇到一些不认识的单词,如果每碰上一个生词就查字典,那么你有可能会烦得读不下去,或读得索然无味,或半天也看不完一篇短文。
更何况有些时候是不允许查字典的。
现在常见的各种语言测试中,阅读理解〔Reading Comprehension〕局部均占整个考试内容的很大比例〔约三分之一〕。
而生词是影响阅读理解的主要障碍之一。
许多考生往往因为生词问题而影响阅读速度和答题的准确性。
因此,如何克服生词这道难关,提高阅读能力,长期以来一直是广阔英语学习者所关心的问题。
事实上,有相当数量的生词是可以通过上下文猜出其意思的。
下面介绍一些常用的猜想词义的技巧。
一、释义有一些文章中,某些生词的词义在其后的一个短语或一个句子中得到解释。
具体说来有以下几种形式:1.通过使用定语从句。
例如:He takes a special interest in botany which concerns the study of plants.A bird sanctuary is a place where birds can breed and take refuse from hunters.例1中“the study of plants〞已经把“botany〞解释得清清楚楚了。
例2从其定义中可以断定“sanctuary〞是一个“地方〞,鸟在那里不受危害,这些信息对理解来说已经足够了。
2.通过使用逗号、破折号和括号等。
例如:Origami——Japanese paper folding——is family fun.She entered the Pentathlon competition,a test of skill in five events.第一句“o rigami〞虽然很陌生,但从后面破折号中的“Japanese paper folding〞,可以猜出其义为“日本的折纸手工艺〞。
和桥高级中学2021届高考英语第二轮复习阅读理解专题指导猜想词义题在阅读中我们经常会遇到许多生词。
这时许多同学立即翻阅词典,查找词义。
这样做不但费时费力,而且影响阅读速度、影响对语篇的整体把握。
事实上,阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或者句子甚至段落都有联络。
我们可以利用语境〔各种信息〕推测、判断某些生词的词义。
近年来全国统一高考中加大了对考生猜词义才能的考察,因此,掌握一定的猜词技巧,对打破高考阅读理解、进步我们的英语语言才能都有非常重要的意义。
常见的题干有:1) Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the word?2) The word... could best be replaced by.3) In the... paragraph, the word... means (refers to).4) According to the passage,... probably means.5) The author uses the word... to mean.猜想词义时,一般可利用以下四个方面的线索:一是针对性的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、难懂的术语或者高深的词汇等所做的通俗化的解释。
这些解释提供的信息明确详细,所使用的语言通俗易懂,利用它们来猜想词义就非常简单。
1.根据定义〔definition〕猜想词义假如生词有一个句子〔定语从句或者是同位语<同位语前常有 or, similarly, that is to say, in other words, namely, or other, say, i.g. 等>或者是同位语从句〕或者段落来定义,或者使用破折号,冒号,分号后的内容和引号括号中的内容加以解释和定义,那么理解这个句子或者段落本身就是推断词义。
定义常用的谓语动词多为:be, mean, deal with, be considered, to be, be called, define, represent, refer to, signify 等。
词义猜测题 A (2015·河北邢台市高三摸底考试) Dear Mom and Dad, Camp is great!I have met a lot of new friends.Jim is from California,Eric is from Iowa,and Tony is from Missouri.We have a great time together,swimming,boating,hiking,and playing tricks on other campers!Every night,we go to another tent secretly and try to scare other campers by making scary noises.It’s so funny to see them run out screaming!Now don’t worry,Mom.I’m not going to get caught like I did last year. One thing that is different from last year is how many bugs there are!I have at least 100 mosquito bites and about 20 fire ant bites.Every time I go outside,horseflies chase me,too!Other than all these annoying bugs,I’m having the best time! Love, Tyler
Dear Tyler, Are you sure you are okay?All of those bugs sound awful!Have you used all of the “ItchBeGone” cream I got you?How about the“Ants’k Awful” lotion(护肤液)for the fire ant bites?You and your aunt Ethel have always seemed to attract those nasty fire ants. Now Tyler,I am very happy that you have met some new friends and that you are having fun together.However,you must stop trying to scare other campers.Remember,honey,some campers may be scared easily.I want you to apologize for any anxiety you may have caused them and start being the nice,polite boy that I know you are.Do you hear me,Tyler?Please be careful.I want you to come home safely. Love, Mom

B.To express his regret about scaring others. C.To ask his parents for advice about camping. D.To tell his parents about his sufferings at camp. 解析:选A。细节理解题。第一封信的第一句“Camp is great”总领下文,Tyler给父母写信是为了讲述他有趣的宿营经历,故A项正确。 2.The underlined word “chase” in the first letter probably means“________”. A.fly away B.get rid of C.put up with D.run after 解析:选D。词义猜测题。根据第一封信第二段的第二句“I have at least 100 mosquito bites and about 20 fire ant bites”可知,Tyler被蚊子和火蚁咬了,再结合画线词所在句的“horseflies chase me,too”中的too可知,此处chase表示“追赶”,即D项正确。 3.Tyler’s mother advises him to________. A.buy more lotion for the bites B.return with a few friends C.avoid scaring other campers D.turn to the police when in trouble 解析:选C。细节理解题。根据第二封信第二段的第二句“However,you must stop trying to scare other campers”可知,选C项。 B (2016·云南省师大附中第四次适应性考试)For twenty years,I saved all my college course notes and textbooks: that’s a lot of paper. Worse,it’s not easy to carry them around—and trust me,they aren’t light—on at least seven moves.Yet I never once looked at them.They sat in our basement,covered in a thick layer of dust.If books and papers could wonder,they’d wonder why they were still under our stairs after all those years.When would the Big Day come? Well,the Big Day eventually did arrive; only it was different than expected.My wife,always more accepting changes than I am,finally talked me into clearing out the entire mess. The pain I experienced was also unexpected.What hurt me was to come across those terrible papers I’d written,which reminded me of my poor study habits,and an embarrassing lack of comprehension.It was great to get rid of them.But it was also a clearing of personal history. At first,I struggled with this.The truth was in the record that my books,my notes,and my papers were primary source materials,documenting an important time in my life.To clear them out was to clear out the truth. What I’ve learned since taking this leap is that the process is more important than the truth.I feel as if much of my real education during my college years isn’t in the documents but now in me. So I am glad to free myself of this physical burden.And what’s better is that I don’t need to look back to those painful moments.They belong to the past. You might want to consider doing something similar,either under the stairs of your basement or in your mind. What is the personal rubbish piling in your life? Clear it out and make your life awesome. 【解题导语】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。下决心清除了堆积多年的大学课本和笔记后,作者从开始纠结“清除了过去的记录,就清除了过去的历史”到最终明白“过程才最重要”的道理。 4.Why was the author finally determined to desert all the college materials? A.Because his wife persuaded him to.
