中考英語閱讀猜詞技巧
由于英語詞匯儲(chǔ)存量的問題,我們在做中考英語閱讀時(shí),有很大的幾率遇到自己不認(rèn)識的詞,這個(gè)時(shí)候我們應(yīng)當(dāng)如何猜出那個(gè)英文單詞的意思呢?下面是小編為您收集整理的中考英語閱讀猜詞技巧,供大家參考!
中考英語閱讀猜詞技巧
1.通過因果關(guān)系猜詞
通過因果關(guān)系猜詞,首先是找出生詞與上下文之間的邏輯關(guān)系,然后才能猜詞。有時(shí)文章借助關(guān)聯(lián)詞(如because,as,since,for,so,thus,as a result,of course,therefore等等)表示前因后果。例如:
You shouldn't have blamed him for that,for it wasn't his fault.通過for引出的句子所表示的原因(那不是他的錯(cuò)),可猜出blame的詞義是"責(zé)備"。
2.通過同義詞和反義詞的關(guān)系猜詞
通過同義詞猜詞,一是要看由and或or連接的同義詞詞組,如happy and gay,即使我們不認(rèn)識gay這個(gè)詞,也可以知道它是愉快的意思;二是看在進(jìn)一步解釋的過程中使用的同義詞,如Man has known something about the planets Venus,Mars,and Jupiter with the help of spaceships.此句中的Venus(金星)、Mars(火星)、Jupiter(木星)均為生詞,但只要知道planets就可猜出這幾個(gè)詞都屬于"行星"這一義域。通過反義詞猜詞,一是看表轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的連詞或副詞,如but,while,however等;二是看與not搭配的或表示否定意義的詞語,如:He is so homely,not at all as handsome as his brother.根據(jù)not at all...handsome我們不難推測出homely的意思,即不英俊、不漂亮的意思。
3.通過構(gòu)詞法猜詞
在閱讀文章時(shí),我們總會(huì)遇上一些新詞匯,有時(shí)很難根據(jù)上下文來推斷其詞意,而它們對文章的理解又有著舉足輕重的作用,此時(shí),如掌握了一些常用的詞根、前綴、后綴等語法知識,這些問題便不難解決了。
4.通過定義或釋義關(guān)系來推測詞義
例如:But sometimes,no rain falls for a long,long time.Then there is a dry period,or drought.
從drought所在句子的上文我們得知很久不下雨,于是便有一段干旱的時(shí)期,即drought,由此可見drought意思為"久旱","旱災(zāi)"。而a dry period和drought是同義語。這種同義或釋義關(guān)系常由is,or,that is,in other words,be called或破折號等來表示。
5.通過句法功能來推測詞義
例如:Bananas,oranges,pineapples,coconuts and some other kind of fruit grow in warm areas.假如pineapples和coconuts是生詞,我們可以從這兩個(gè)詞在句中所處的位置來判斷它們大致的意思。從句中不難看出pineapples,coconuts和bananas,oranges是同類關(guān)系,同屬fruit類,因此它們是兩樣水果,準(zhǔn)確地說,是菠蘿和椰子。
6.通過描述猜詞
描述即作者為幫助讀者更深更感性地了解某人或某物而對該人或該物作出的外在相貌或內(nèi)在特征的描寫。例如:The penguin is a kind of sea bird living in the South Pole.It is fat and walks in a funny way.Although it cannot fly,it can swim in the icy water to catch the fish.從例句的描述中可以得知penguin是一種生活在南極的鳥類。后面更詳盡地描述了該鳥類的生活習(xí)性。 例如:But sometimes,no rain falls for a long,long time.Then there is a dry period,or drought.
從drought所在句子的上文我們得知很久不下雨,于是便有一段干旱的時(shí)期,即drought,由此可見drought意思為"久旱","旱災(zāi)"。而a dry period和drought是同義語。這種同義或釋義關(guān)系常由is,or,that is,in other words,be called或破折號等來表示。
