2016考研英語：閱讀理解詞匯題解題技巧
閱讀在考研英語中占分比重最大，歷屆的考生都格外重視。現(xiàn)在來看我們的復(fù)習(xí)時間還有很多，但是按計劃英語一定要在基礎(chǔ)階段就打好堅實的基礎(chǔ)，尤其是閱讀理解真題的復(fù)習(xí)。那如何，充分利用好閱讀真題呢？老師建議大家在基礎(chǔ)階段不僅要重點分析真題文章，還需要重視訓(xùn)練規(guī)范的解題思路，掌握不同題型解題的技巧。今天我們來介紹猜詞題的幾種解題技巧。
方法一：利用例子歸納
As a result, the modern world is increasingly populated by intelligent gizmos whose presence we barely notice but whose universal existence has removed much human labor. Our factories hum to the rhythm of robot assembly arms. Our banking is done at automated teller terminals that thank us with mechanical politeness for the transaction. Our subway trains are controlled by tireless robot-drivers醫(yī)學(xué).全在.線m.gydjdsj.org.cn. And thanks to the continual miniaturization of electronics and micro-mechanics, there are already robot systems that can perform some kinds of pain and bone surgery with submillimeter accuracy—far greater precision than highly skilled physicians can achieve with their hands alone。
27. The word “gizmos” (Line 1, Paragraph 2) most probably means _______.
[A] programs [B] experts [C] devices [D] creatures
這篇文章讓我們猜測gizmos含義，通過后文2、3、4句的舉例內(nèi)容可以看出robot arms, automated teller terminals, robot-drivers這些全是機器裝置，所以推測gizmos應(yīng)該是“裝置，設(shè)備”的含義，選擇[C] devices。利用舉例內(nèi)容推測詞義是很重要的一個猜詞方法，表示舉例的短語有：for example、for instance、such as、as、like等。
方法二：利用同義詞
People in earlier eras were surrounded by reminders of misery. They worked until exhausted, lived with few protections and died young. In the West, before mass communication and literacy, the most powerful mass medium was the church, which reminded worshippers that their souls were in danger and that they would someday be meat for worms. Given all this, they did not exactly need their art to be a bummer too。
37. The word “bummer” most probably means something ______。
[A] religious [B] unpleasant [C] entertaining [D] commercial
這篇文章讓我們猜測bummer的含義，可以發(fā)現(xiàn)其后有一個信號詞too，說明前文出現(xiàn)過和bummer類似的詞。追溯前文可以看出前文主要是在講People in earlier eras were surrounded by reminders of misery。核心概念為misery，所以bummer的含義即等于misery醫(yī).學(xué)全.在.線m.gydjdsj.org.cn，所以選擇[B] unpleasant。很多時候，讓我們猜測的詞義會在前文或后文出現(xiàn)一個同類含義的詞，所以大家一定要注意句間關(guān)系。
方法三：利用反義信息
The townsfolk don’t see it this way and local council does not contribute directly to the subsidy of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Stratford cries poor traditionally. Nevertheless every hotel in town seems to be adding a new wing or cocktail lounge. Hilton is building its own hotel there, which you may be sure will be decorated with Hamlet Hamburger Bars, the Lear Lounge, the Banquo Banqueting Room, and so forth, and will be very expensive。
28. By saying “Stratford cries poor traditionally”， the author implies that_____。
[A] Stratford cannot afford the expansion projects
[B] Stratford has long been in financial difficulties
[C] the town is not really short of money
[D] the townsfolk used to be poorly paid
文章讓我們猜測Stratford cries poor traditionally這個短句的含義，根據(jù)后文連接詞Nevertheless推出前文與后文之間是一種反義關(guān)系，而后文一直在講各種新設(shè)施的增加醫(yī)學(xué).全在.線m.gydjdsj.org.cn，and will be very expensive，由此可以斷定后文強調(diào)的是“昂貴”，所以前文的poor應(yīng)該是[C] the town is not really short of money。有時候，讓我們猜測的詞義或句意會與前文或后文構(gòu)成一定的邏輯關(guān)系，我們根據(jù)這個邏輯關(guān)系的正反向就可以推出詞句的含義。
熟練掌握詞匯題的解題技巧，切實提高閱讀理解的能力，才能最終取得不錯的成績。老師建議考生在基礎(chǔ)階段做好每年的考研英語真題，掌握做題方法，強化正確的做題思路。預(yù)祝大家：復(fù)習(xí)順利，夢想成真！
