猜测词义题。阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。我们可以利用语境(各种已
知信息)推测、判断某些生词的词义。做这种类型的题,要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境来判断其意义。
因此熟练掌握一些猜词技巧是做好这类题的关键。命题者在出这类题时惯用常规词义来麻痹考生,我们要
特别注意熟词生义,切不可脱离语境想当然。在句子或段落中,我们可以利用熟悉的词语,根据语言环境
所表示的关系推断生词词义。31.A词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句后半句willspend30daysintheChinese
spacelaboratoryTiangong-2将花30天在中国的空间实验室Tiangong-2里面。可知前半句应该是“被送入太
空船上”,故选A。

关于词义猜测题
做这种类型的题,要根据词、词组、句子所在的语境上下文来判断其意义。因此熟练掌握一些猜词技
巧是做好这类题的关键。命题者在出这类题时惯用常规词义来麻痹考生,我们要特别注意熟词生义,切不
可脱离语境主观臆断。
下面结合文本及近几年高考试题,对词义猜测的技巧加以解读。
1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测
有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语,下面接着出现其定义或解释,这就是判断该词或短语意
义的主要依据。例如:Itwillbeveryhardbutalsoverybrittle—thatis,itwillbreakeasily.从后面thatis(也就是
说)的解释中我们可以了解到brittle是“脆”的意思。如文章第28小题此处指拥抱这种温暖的感觉能避开压
力保护免疫系统。划线词语wardoff是“避开,阻挡”之意,与C项同义故选C.
2.根据同位关系进行猜测[来源:词突破www.citupo.com]
阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语,对前面的词进行解释,这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的
词义或句意进行猜测。例如:The“Chunnel”,atunnel(隧道)connectingEnglandandFrance,isnowcomplete.
此句中atunnelconnectingEnglandandFrance是Chunnel的同位语。因此,The“Chunnel”就是英法之间的
海底隧道。
3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测
在英语中,有很多词可以在前面加前缀,在后面加后缀,从而构成一个词,乍看起来,这个词可能是新词,
但掌握了一定的构词知识,就不难猜出它的词义。例如:“Ourpartiesareaimedforchildren2to10,”Anaclerio
said,“andthey’reveryinteractiveandcreativeinthattheybuiltasenseofdramabasedonasubject.”文中
interactive是由前缀inter-(相互的)和active(活动的,活跃的)而构成的,同时根据上下文的意思可以判断,该
词的含义应是“互动的”。
4.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测[来源:Zxxk.Com]
根据上下句的连接词,如but,however,otherwise等就可以看到前后句在意义上的差别,从而依据某一句的
含义,来确定另一句的含义。另外,分号也可以表示转折、对比或不相干的意义。例如:Achild’sbirthdayparty
doesn’thavetobeahassle;itcanbeabasketoffun.从前后两句的意思可以看出,hassle和abasketoffun肯定
是近乎相反的意义。所以不难判断hassle的意思是“困难,麻烦”。
