为了帮助考生们更好地学习、备考雅思,青岛新航道为大家提供几个关于雅思阅读的猜词诀窍,青岛新航道专注于青岛雅思培训,提供专业雅思信息供考生们参考。
在做雅思阅读的时候,相信很多考生并不是所有的句子都能够理解,其中也包含猜的成分,那么猜词这方面该注意些什么问题?
一、利用上下文线索猜测词义。
1.根据同义、反义关系猜词。
Today's teenagers seem to be more liberal intheir ideas than their _______ grandparents.
A. freethinking B. traditional
C. old D. happy
traditional与liberal意思相反,故选B。
2.根据句意或段落文章的上、下文猜测词义。
Klebold and Harris felt _______ and wanted to revenge against those who disliked playing
together with them or laughed at them.
A. discouraged B. ashamed
C. tired D. separated
根据下文的disliked playing together with them判断此处应为"感到孤立",故选D。
二、利用构词法猜测词义。 此法包括利用前、后缀及合成词猜测词义。
1.用前、后缀猜测词义。
英语中的前缀、后缀构词颇多,且特定的"缀"往往表示特定的含义,把握住这一点,可起到"以不变应万变"的效果。
1)He had been overworking and fell ill at last.
overwork是由前缀over-加动词构成,over有"超过,过于"之意,overwork意思是"工作过多,劳累过度"。再如,overburden负担过重,overcharge要价过高,overdo做得过分。
英语中常用的前缀还有:
mis-错,误:misfortune不幸;mislead误导;mismanage处理不当
mid-中央:midnight半夜;midway半路
under-低于:underdone半生不熟的;underestimate低估
anti-反对:antibody抗体;anticyclone反气旋;antifreeze防冻剂
下面划线单词为常见后缀派生词:
1)You must stop dreaming and face reality.(-ty为名词的标志)
2)The country is trying to popularize education. (-ize为及物动词的标志,再如realize,modernize)
2.利用合成词猜测词义。
Family members take turns choosing a special activity for the evening, and everyonepartakes in for fun.
根据短语构成及上下文意思看,此处partakes in相当于takes part in。
再如break out-outbreak(名词"爆发"),set out-outset(名词"起始"),come in-income(名词"收入")
