应答技巧?
1. Definition 定义法: 一般通过定义、定语 (从句)或同位语(从句)来确定词义。常 用逗号,破折号,冒号等。

给同学们的建议:
同学们在做词义猜测题时注意不要脱离 语境。有些常用词在特定的上下文中,或专 业性文章中,具有特殊的或专门的词义。在 解这类题时,必须仔细地研读划线部分的上 下文,有时阅读的视线还要扩大一些。如果 离开特定的语言环境来理解生词意义,必然 会理解错误。
特别提醒
①不管这个词多超纲,根据上下文都能 得出其意思。
A. 便士 B. 温饱 CC. 非常贫困 D. 虚弱
3. Mrs. Smith is loquacious while her husband is the silent type. A. 活泼的 B. 好动的 C. 多嘴多舌的 D. 可爱的 4. Those new comers were not used to the life in the suburbs which was so different from that inside the city. A. town B. capital CC. countryside D. house

2. Contrast 对比法:
利用文中的反义词以及表对比关 系的词(组)猜测词义。
表示对比的词有but、while、 however、 otherwise等。
英语单词大多是由词根、词头(前缀)和 词尾(后缀)所组成。词根是单词最基本的部 分,表达单词的基本含义。在词根前或后加上 前缀或后缀,可以用来引申或转变原词的意义。 只要我们掌握了各种词根、词头和词尾的基本 含义,那么就可以很容易猜测出由其构成的新 词的含义了。
Eg. I’m going to buy a microbus.
Most of us agreed, however, Bill dissented.
(v. 不同意)
She is usually prompt for all her classes, but today she arrived in the middle of her first class. A. on time B. late C. slowly D. quickly

考纲解读
猜测词义题: 词义猜测能力是英语高考阅
读理解能力的主要组成部分,是历年高考中 的必考题型,此类题要求考生根据一定的上 下文猜测生词词义或熟词生意,考查考生根 据上下文对灵活变化的词义做出准确理解判 断的能力。而且,所考查的词或短语的意义 往往不停留在字面上,要根据语境来判断。
另外,代词复指理解题也是猜测词义的常 考类型。
熟词生意。即考试大纲中有该词,但所考 的是该词的纲外意义。如even在大纲中所 给的意义是“即使”(副词),但在( 2013北京卷)The advanced EP also heats
