雅思阅读猜生词方法

雅思阅读猜生词方法

雅思阅读猜生词方法雅思阅读遇生词很常见,考生很有可能就会在生词陷阱上丢分,雅思阅读中遇到不认识的生词会影响我们的阅读进度及答题正确率,除了日常提高词汇量之外,试试这些靠谱实用的猜词方法。

一、同义词猜词很多时候,单词的意思我们可以通过找到其意思相同或者类似的单词来进行解释。

常见标志词:like, the same as, similar to, means, refer to, that is to say, namely equal to...Just like his taciturn father, Jon rarely says anything at family gatherings.我们这里可以看出“taciturn”的词义和“rarely says anything”类似。

我们可能对“rarely”这个单词不太熟悉或者不是很肯定其意思,但是我们仔细一看发现“rarely says anything”, “anything”出卖了“rarely”这个单词。

“只阅读,不理解”,我们虽然不知道“rarely”的具体意思,但是我们知道,一般来说,anything用在表示否定的句子中,所以“rarely says anything”, 很有可能指的是“很少说话”,所以“taciturn’”的意思是“沉默寡言,话少的”。

PS: 平常经常提到的“rare species”, 意思是指“珍稀物种”,所以rare这个单词指的是“稀少的、稀有的”。

比如资源变得稀少,我们可以写成“the natural resources are increasingly becoming rare.”二、标点符号猜词某些表示解释性质的标点符号也可以作为猜词的一个关键点。

常见标点符号:-- () :George is a scrooge: he thinks only of money and will not spend a penny on anything he can get free.我们根据解释型的标点符号—冒号后面的内容来大致猜测“scrooge”的词义。

雅思阅读猜词练习的几大方法总结

雅思阅读猜词练习的几大方法总结

雅思阅读猜词技巧:1.定义猜词。

即在该词后面有用冒号或者破折号,进行进一步解释说明的。

比如......this is rather like placing a textbook on a wet sponge: the weight squeezes the water out, causing both water and sponge to settle lower. 通过冒号后的解释sponge的意思就更为清楚了。

2.词根词缀法猜词。

(关于词根词缀我会下面的博文中详细讲)比如pre-表示前,领先的意思,那么prewar就是战前的意思。

掌握一些常用的词根词缀对于扩大词汇量很有用处。

3.根据context,即上下文的意思来猜。

4.根据common sense猜,当然,同学要记住,不能用common sense 来做T/F/NG的题,这是雅思阅读的大忌。

5.还有,有的词如果不影响你的阅读,那么就不要去管他什么意思了。

做雅思阅读,Time is limited.一定要好好控制自己的时间。

关于时间分配我也会在下面的博文中详细讲。

解决雅思阅读生词之雅思阅读猜词技巧

雅思阅读对于广大考生来说,最大的难关在于词汇的理解不精确,但是其实阅读材料的每个词与它前后的词语和句子有很大的关系,我们可以通过语境进行推测雅思阅读生词,主要方法如下:雅思阅读猜词技巧1.根据定义猜测词义:例如,mean, deal with, be considered as, refer to, be known as, represent等。

雅思阅读猜词技巧2.通过相似关系或同位语猜测词义:例如:or, similarly, that is to say, in other words等词。

举个例子来说:Semantics, the study of the meaning of words, is necessary if you are to speak and read intelligently. Semantics的意思,我们可以根据语法两个逗号之间的名词短语the study of the meaning of the words作为同位语,所以我可以判定答案,semantics的意思是词汇学。

雅思阅读之猜词技巧解读

雅思阅读之猜词技巧解读

雅思阅读之猜词技巧解读一、内在逻辑关系根据内在逻辑关系推测词义是指运用语言知识分析和判断相关信息之间存在的逻辑关系,然后根据逻辑关系推断生词词义或大致义域,小编认为这一方面是关键所在。

1.根据对比关系猜测词义在一个句子或段落中,有对两个事物或现象进行对比性的描述,我们可以根据生词或难词的反义词猜测其词义。

例如:Andrew is one of the most supercilious men I know. His brother, incontrast,is quite humble and modest.该例中supercilious对许多人来说可能是个生词,但是句中短语incontrast,(相对照的,相对比的)可以提示我们supercilious和后面词组humble andmodest(谦卑又谦虚)是对比关系。

分析出这种关系后,我们便能猜出supercilious意为"目空一切的,傲慢的"。

表示对比关系的词汇和短语主要是unlike,not,but,however,despite,in spite of,incontrast和while引导的并列句等。

A good supervisor can recognize instantly the adept workers from theunskilled ones.该句中并未出现上面提到的表示对比关系的词或短语,但是通过上下文可以判断出句子前后是对比关系,即把熟练工人与非熟练工人区分开。

这时我们也能够推断出生词adept的词义,"熟练的"。

2.根据比较关系猜测词义同对比关系相反,比较关系表示意义上的相似关系,例如:Green loves to talk,and his brothers are similarlyloquacious.该句中副词similarly表明短语loves totalk与生词loquacious之间的比较关系。

精选ielts阅读考试的猜词技巧

精选ielts阅读考试的猜词技巧

精选ielts阅读考试的猜词技巧精选ielts阅读考试的猜词技巧ielts阅读考试的猜词技巧阅读理解中几种常见猜词技巧作为泛读(Extensive Reading)的一种,阅读理解在国内各类考试中都举足轻重。

雅思,托福,英语专业四、八级,还有大学英语四、六级,各类考试中的阅读理解侧重点不同,但万变不离其中。

很多同学都认为,突破词汇是解决阅读理解的唯一途径。

词汇固然重要,但是在应试型的阅读理解中,掌握一些猜词法未尝不是行之有效的方法。

(小德老师提示)考试中的阅读理解大多为细节题,即针对个别句子和段落进行提问,所以各位童鞋不要在阅读整篇文章,了解文章大意上浪费过多时间。

(通常只有20%的题目是主旨题。

)拿到文章,先浏览几道问题的属性,细节题几道,主旨题几道。

如果细节题占大多数,直接用Scanning找到答案所在句子,精读这几句找出答案。

如果时间充裕,再处理主旨题。

废话少说,介绍几种猜词法吧。

1. Definition (根据释义猜词) 在有些文章中,某些生词的词义在下文中可以得到解释或说明。

这些解释有时以定义、定语从句、同位语形式出现;有时用破折号、括号、冒号、引号等符号引出;还有时用that is, or, that is to say, in other words等引出。

例如:Anthropology is the scientific study of man. 根据定义可知,anthropology就是研究人类的科学,由此可推出anthropology是人类学。

He takes a special interest in botany which concerns the study of plants. 根据定语从句中which concerns the study of plants 可知botany是植物学。

2. Examples (根据例子猜词) 在有些文章中,下文所举的例子给读者提供了猜测生词的重要线索。

3大雅思阅读猜词技巧讲解生词不存在的!雅思阅读猜词技巧之利用词根词缀信任许多同学是了解这个方法的,由于“词根词缀记忆单词”这个东东已经被人们鼓吹了许多年了,从老师还是个稚嫩少年的时候就已经听说过这个方法了(那个时候菊花还只是一种花)。

实际上,词根词缀法是一个很好地在阅读中猜词的方法。

同学们在备考阅读的时候需要把握一些常见的词缀用以猜词意或推断方向性。

我们来看下面的例子(第24题):题目:23 Home medical aids24 Regular amounts of exercise25 Feelings of control over life26 Feelings of lonelinessA may cause heart disease.B can be helped by hormone treatment.C may cause rises in levels of stress hormones.D have cost theUnited Statesgovernment more than $200 billion.E may help prevent mental decline.F may get stronger at night.G allow old people to be more independent.H can reduce stress in difficult situations.原文:Maintaining a level of daily physical activity may help mental functioning, says Carl Cotman, a neuroscientist at the University of California at Irvine. He found that rats that exercise on a treadmill have raised levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor coursing through their brains. Cotman believes this hormone, which keeps neurons functioning, may prevent the brains of active humans from deteriorating.分析:利用题干中的信息(regular amounts of exercise)定位到原文(daily physical activity),进而对该段文字进行阅读,发觉最终的deteriorate 不熟悉,但是以de-前缀开头,一般都是否定的方向,那么与第五个选项中的decline方向全都,可以确定E为正确答案。

雅思阅读迅速准确猜词义的七大技能

雅思阅读迅速准确猜词义的七大技能

雅思阅读:迅速准确猜词义的七大技能中国教育在线讯雅思阅读:迅速准确猜词义的七大技能一、利用概念式线索进行猜想概念是作者为了更好地表达思想,在文章中对一些重要的概念、难懂的术语或辞汇等所作的解释。

这些解释提供的信息具有明确的针对性,利用它们猜想词义比较容易。

例如:Kinetic energy is the energy of moving particles. Kinetic enegry 可能是生词,由概念可知,表语是说明主语性质内容的。

所以kinetic energy就是“运动粒子的能量”。

再如Typhoons are cyclones,storms with strong winds rotating around a low-pressure center.若是cyclones是生词,推断该词义的线索就是其后面的解释“绕低气压中心形成的暴风雨”由此咱们可知cyclones的意思是“绕低气压中心形成的暴风雨”。

在这种解释中概念句的谓语动词多为:be, mean, deal with, be considered, to be, refer to, be called, be known as, define, represent, signify, constitute 等。

二、按照进一步论述猜想词义虽然进一步论述不如概念那样严谨、详细,可是提供的信息足以使咱们猜诞生词的词义。

复述部份可以是适当的词,短语或句子。

例如Experts in kinesics, in their study of body motion as related to speech ,hope to discover new methods of communications. 逗号中短语的意思是“对肢体语言进行研究的学科”。

短语与前面生词kinesics是同位关系,因此咱们不难猜出kinesics指“肢体语言学”。

雅思阅读猜词义的技巧解读(二)三、同位语猜词同位语在语法上,一般是插入到句子中间,解释或者补充句子的某个部分。

常见形式:…, …, … 或者其他形式的插入语,如(), … --- … --- …Ethics--the standard of deeds and moral codes accepted by the society--has a powerful effect on modem business communication.我们可以根据插入语,同位语大致地猜测出,“ethics”指的是“行为准则和道德标准”。

其实在很多行业中经常会碰到这个单词,比如“business ethics”指的就是“商业道德”的意思。

四、反义词猜词如果发现上下文中有反义词,那么通常可以迅速得到生词的词义。

常见标志词:unlike, as opposed to, in contrast, however ; but, while, yet, although, even if, not... But… , different from, unfortunately, ...During the concert the audience was quiet, but after it ended the crowd became boisterous.在音乐会期间,观众非常安静;但是结束以后,就变得"boisterous"(喧闹)。

五、定语从句猜词法定语从句,在语法上是限定、解释,补充说明其前面的一个内容(一般多为名词)。

This researcher is considered meticulous who is often seen to correct even the smallest error in an essay or a report.Meticulous后面用定语从句来进行一个大致的界定。

雅思阅读猜词义的方法

雅思阅读猜词义的方法

雅思阅读中,文章的核心是主旨,然后运用多种形式的句子与词汇,来对某一个主旨进行说明。

换句话说,雅思阅读实际上就是考察考生的同义词或者同义句。

因此,考生学习迅速理解难句难词的能力,在雅思阅读考试中是非常重要的。

为了更好地表达文章的主旨,揭示所要诠释的思想,作者往往常常在文章中对一些比较重要的词汇、概念和难懂的术语等做出一些解释,这种解释称作针对性解释,它可以提供明确的信息,可以利用这些针对性解释来猜测词义。

1、根据定义猜测词义如果生词是句子或段落所解释的定义,理解句子或段落本身就是推断词义。

例如: anthropology is the scientific study of man。

由定义可知,anthropology就是“研究人类的科学”。

In slang the term "jam" constitutes a state of being in which a personfinds himself or herself in a difficult situation。

同样,从上下文的定义可知jam一词在俚语中的意思是“困境”。

定义句的谓语动词多为:be, mean, deal with, beconsidered, to be, refer to, be called, be known as, define, represent, signify,constitute等。

2、根据复述猜测词义虽然复述不如定义那样严谨、详细,但是提供的信息足以使阅读者猜出生词词义。

复述部分可以适当词、短语或是从句。

同位语 Semantics, the study of the meaning of words, is necessary if you areto speak and read intelligently。

此例逗号中短语意为“对词意义进行研究的学科”。

该短语与前面生词semanties式同位关系,因此我们不难猜出semanties指“语义学”。

雅思阅读词义猜测

雅思阅读词义猜测

雅思阅读词义猜测雅思阅读中,词义猜测是一个非常重要的技能。

当我们在阅读中遇到生词或不熟悉的单词时,往往需要利用上下文的线索来推断出该单词的意思。

下面,我们来学习一些常见的词义猜测技巧。

1. 上下文暗示法在阅读中,一般而言,上下文都能提供足够的线索来帮助我们理解句子中的生词。

比如:Original sentence: The hotel room was suffused with an ambient glow that shaded from pink to lavender.根据上下文,我们可以猜测 suffused 的意思是“弥漫”,因为句子中提到的是一种环绕房间的光线颜色渐变的现象。

这里,ambient glow 暗示了 suffused 的意思。

2. 前缀和后缀法前缀和后缀都是非常常见的单词元素,如果我们理解了常见的前缀和后缀的含义,就可以帮助我们更好的理解生词。

比如:在这个句子中,preternatural 是个生词。

但是,我们知道前缀 pre- 的意思是“超过”,sufix -natura- 是“本质”或“自然”的意思。

这样,我们就可以猜测preternatural 的意思是“超自然的”。

这也是大多数人会选择的答案。

3. 定义重复法有时候,上下文可能会在同一个段落或文章中多次重复生词的定义或用法,从而帮助读者更好地理解生词。

比如:在这个句子中,如果我们不知道 offset 的确切含义,我们可以看到 positive outcomes 和 negative consequences 这两个短语出现在同一个句子中,因此可以猜测offset 的含义是“抵消”。

4. 类比法类比法是通过将生词与已知相似词汇进行比较,从而推出生词意义的方法。

比如:在这个句子中,如果我们不知道 mellifluous 的意思,我们可以类比类似的单词,比如“honey”等,从而推断出 mellifluous 的意思是“甜美的”。

这些解释提供的信息具有明确的针对性,利用它们猜测词义比较容易。

例如:Kinetic energy is the energy ofmoving particles. Kinetic enegry 可能是生词,由定义可知,表语是说明主语性质内容的。

所以kinetic energy就是“运动粒子的能量”。

再如Typhoons are cyclones,storms with strongwinds rotating around a low-pressurecenter.如果cyclones是生词,推断该词义的线索就是其后面的解释“绕低气压中心形成的暴风雨”由此我们可知cyclones的意思是“绕低气压中心形成的暴风雨”。

在这种解释中定义句的谓语动词多为:be,mean, deal with, be considered, to be, refer to, be called, be known as, define,represent, signify, constitute 等。

二、进一步阐述猜测词义虽然进一步阐述不如定义那样严谨、详细,但是提供的信息足以使我们猜出生词的词义。

复述部分能够是适当的词,短语或者句子。

例如Experts inkinesics, in their study of body motion as related to speech ,hope to discovernew methods of communications. 逗号中短语的意思是“对肢体语言实行研究的学科”。

短语与前面生词kinesics是同位关系,所以我们不难猜出kinesics指“肢体语言学”。

雅思阅读猜词技巧之利用词根词缀
相信很多同学是了解这个方法的,因为“词根词缀记忆单词”这个东东已经被人们鼓吹了很多年了,从老师还是个稚嫩少年的时候就已经听说过这个方法了(那个时候菊花还只是一种花)。

实际上,词根词缀法是一个很好地在阅读中猜词的方法。

同学们在备考阅读的时候需要掌握一些常见的词缀用以猜词意或判断方向性。

我们来看下面的例子(第24题):
题目:
23 Home medical aids
24 Regular amounts of exercise
25 Feelings of control over life
26 Feelings of loneliness
A may cause heart disease.
B can be helped by hormone treatment.
C may cause rises in levels of stress hormones.
D have cost theUnited Statesgovernment more than $200 billion.
E may help prevent mental decline.
F may get stronger at night.
G allow old people to be more independent.
H can reduce stress in difficult situations.
原文:
Maintaining a level of daily physical activity may help mental functioning, says Carl Cotman, a neuroscientist at the University of California at Irvine. He found that rats that exercise on a treadmill have raised levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor coursing through their brains. Cotman believes this hormone, which keeps neurons functioning, may prevent the brains of active humans from deteriorating.
分析:
利用题干中的信息(regular amounts of exercise)定位到原文(daily physical activity),进而对该段文字进行阅读,发现最后的deteriorate不认识,但是以de-前缀开头,一般都是否定的方向,那么与第五个选项中的decline方向一致,可以确定E为正确答案。

雅思阅读猜词技巧之利用并列关系
阅读中常见的并列关系词有and, or等,并列关系前后连接的词往往具有一定的一致性。

我们这里拿or来举个例子,or前后的词常常含义是近似的。

因此,如果or连接的前后的词我们有一个不认识,那么可以利用另一个来猜雅思阅读生词。

我们来看下面的例子:
例句:
However, the major problems of the travel and tourism industry that have hidden, or obscured, its economic impact are the diversity and fragmentation of the industry itself.
分析:
本句话中,很多同学是不认识obscure的,但是我们一般都认识前面的hidden,并且发现这两个单词由or连接,所以可以推断obscure的意思跟hidden是比较接近的。

雅思阅读考察的是单词的模糊理解而非具体含义,所以很多单词我们了解大概意思、保证阅读可以顺利进行下去即可,不用弄明白确切意思。

雅思阅读猜词技巧之利用同位语
雅思阅读中我们常会看到一个不认识的名词后跟随了一个逗号,逗号后是一个名词短语,这个名次短语就是这个名词的同位语解释。

我们可以利用同位语去推测未知名词的含义。

我们来看下面的例子:
题目:Marie and Pierre Curie’s research into the radioactivity of the mineral known as 8……… led to the discovery of two new elements.
原文:Turning her attention to minerals, she found her interest drawn to pitchblende, a mineral whose radioactivity, superior to that of pure uranium, could be explained only by the presence in the ore of small quantities of an unknown substance of very high activity. Pierre Curie joined her in the work that she had undertaken to resolve this problem, and that led to the discovery of the new elements, polonium and radium.
分析:通过观察题目,我们发现我们要填的单词处在“a mineral known as ...”这个结构下,说明要填的单词是一种矿物质
的名字。

那么利用题目中的two new elements定位到原文中,再利用代词往前查找,会找到pitchblende这个词,后面就跟随了我们说的同位语,那么可以确定这就是要我们找的答案。

我们来看看第6题:原文:
The original patent outlined a three-stage process, in which phenol and formaldehyde (from wood or coal) were initially combined under vacuum inside a large egg-shaped kettle. The result was a resin known as Novalak, which became soluble and malleable when heated. The resin was allowed to cool in shallow trays until it hardened, and then broken up and ground into powder. Other substances were then introduced: including fillers, such as woodflour, asbestos or cotton, which increase strength and moisture resistance, catalysts (substances to speed up the reaction between two chemicals without joining to either) and hexa, a compound of ammonia and formaldehyde which supplied the additional formaldehyde necessary to form a thermosetting resin.
分析:很多同学在做这道题时,利用第6题前面的ammonia 和formaldehyde定位,在原文中第4句中,我们看到了一个a compound of ammonia and formaldehyde …这个结构,于是就有同学把答案写成了compound。

但是我们来看一下,a compound of ammonia and formaldehyde …就是我们之前说的“双标点中的名
词短语”,所以它是一个同位语,那么是对谁的解释呢?逗号之前的名词hexa,所以hexa是我们的答案(原文的意思是hexa是ammonia和formaldehyde一起构成的混合物)。

至于为什么不能填compound这个词,这是一个解释性的词汇,属于“类别”词,不够具体,而填空题需要填具体的词。
