怎樣回答四級閱讀理解中的詞彙問題
關於詞彙問題（Vocabu1ary）
詞彙（Vocabulary）是四級閱讀理解測試中非常重要的一項。詞彙類其實也是就細節進行提問，所不同的是這是唯一關於詞或片語的練習專案，詞彙題往往要求對文章中的某個單詞、短語甚至句子等找出近義詞或最合適的解釋。解答這類題需要學生擁有較大的詞彙量。可是，單詞記憶似乎已成為學生普遍反映最頭痛的難題。閱讀理解中詞彙類問題的常見提問方式有下列幾種：
***1***According to the author ,the word "…"means_______.
***2***Which of the following is nearest in meaning to "…"?
***4***What’s the meaning of "…"in line …of paragraph….?
***5***As used in the line …, the word "…"refers to _______.
一般來說，在文章的閱讀中解決釋義的最鄧辦法是猜測詞義。猜測詞義也需要一定的技巧，可以通過1***上下文間意義的聯絡；2）同義關係，反義關係；3）詞的定義；4）對詞的解釋和舉例；5）構詞法知識猜測詞義。
1. 利用上下文詞語意義的互相聯絡猜測詞義
The fishermen make their canoes from tree trunks .They go from island to island in these light marrow boats and collect turtles’ eggs
我們從上下文中可以得出以下資訊："canoes"是一種漁夫用樹木做的、來回於島嶼之間的、輕狹長的、類似於小船之類的東西。儘管我們可能還不能肯定它的確切解釋，但這一生詞已經不會影響我們的閱讀和理解了。
Example ：
Jogging has become very popular in some countries ,It is believed to be a good exercise for old people .
"Jogging"的意思通過"a good exercise for old people "可以推斷出是一種適合老年人的劇烈的運動方式。
2. 利用文章中詞與詞的同義和反義關係猜測詞義
Example :
If you happened to be sitting in the woods outside the city ,you might have witnessed a strange sight . You would have seen a very proud looking man riding along horseback , saying something
在文章中可以很容易地判斷出"witnesss"的同義關係詞是"seen",因此"witness"就是看見的意思。
Example :
In the northern regions the winters are generally cold and humid ,and the summers hot and dry .
顯然，冬天和夏天的氣候是截然相反的，它們的修飾詞的意思也應該截然相反。"cold"與"hot"對應，"humid"與"dry"對應。因此，"humid"是"潮溼" 意思。
3. 利用文章中對詞的定義猜測詞義
Example：
Such experiences are not unusual for the amateur conchologists, people who collect shells.
Conchologists的意思可以根據該詞後面的同位解釋"people who collect shells"理解為收集貝殼的人或貝殼收藏家。
Example :
Jack is now a florist, who keeps a shop for selling flowers in our district.
"florist" 的意思就是其後定語從句"who keeps a shop for selling flowers 所描述的"擁有一家專門賣花的商店的人"，即"花店主"
4. 利用文章中對詞的舉例及解釋猜 測詞義
Example :
Today young couples who are just starting their households of ten spend lots of their money on appliances ,for instance ,washing machines , refrigerators and color TVs.
通過所舉的例子（washing machines ,refrigerators and color TVs）
可以看出，"appliances" 應是這些名詞的總稱，即"家用電器"。
Example :
Finally the enemy surrendered .They threw down their weapons and walked out of the home with their hands over their heads
通過後一句對"surrendered"的解釋：扔掉武器（throw down their weapons ）,舉起雙手（with their hands over heads ）可知其意是"投降"
5. 利用構詞法知識（字首和字尾）猜測詞義
Example :
They overestimate the interviewee’s ability and asked him many difficult questions
"estimate"是"估計"的意思，"over－"是字首，意為"過分，過度，超 過"等，因此"overestimate"就是"高估"的意思 。
Example :
We were told that ours was the most spacious room in the hotel .That was why we had to pay so much for it .
"spacious"是由"space***名詞，空間***"＋"＋－ious***形容詞字尾 "變化而來的，因此，可猜測其詞義為"寬敞"。
各種各樣的前、字尾可以構成名詞、形容詞、動詞、副詞等，這些詞綴需要平時不斷地積累和記憶。掌握構詞法知識是擴大詞彙量和猜測生詞詞義的最佳辦法。。
