托福阅读词汇题解题攻略详解
新托福阅读词汇题是指在语言环境中理解词汇了,即是从上下文找出词汇的含义。英语词汇往往一词多义,面对这种题型,不仅要求考生要掌握大量的词汇,还要学会如何在文章中通过上下文之间的关系找出最适合该语境的词汇含义。
词汇题解题技巧:
1.“猜词”
词汇量大对于理解一篇文章来说至关重要。不过有时可通过上下文来推断或猜测词意,比如可通过例句,对比词,同义词活文章其他段落的解释等。
2. “推断”
英语单词常常一词多义,准确的词义一定要依语境而定。值得注意的是,并不是所有的词都能从语境种推断出来,在又干扰项的情况下,你有时没有任何线索可以猜测出生词的词义,事先记住该词的词义是正确回答该题的方式。
3. “增加词汇量”
掌握一定的词汇量是很重要的。每一篇文章种都有2至3个词汇题,总共8至10个。
如何利用上下文,找出词汇的含义:
1. 对比
Example: OG Practice Set 5, question 6
Passage 5: In this newly emerging economic order, workers sometimes organized to protect their rights and traditional ways of life. Craftworkers such as carpenters and tailors formed unions and in 1834 individual unions came together in the National Trades’ Union. The labor movement gathered some momentum in the decade before the Panic of 1837, but in the depression that followed, labor’s strength collapsed…
The phrase gathered some momentum in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ made progress
○ became active
○ caused changes
○ combined forces
解析:单词readily所在的文章句子中出现转折词but, 根据文章中but后面的内容我们可以得出短语gathered some momentum在此句中的意思为made progress。
2. 例子
Example: OG Practice Set 4, question 10
Passage 8: One cognitive theory suggests that aggravating and painful events trigger unpleasant feelings. These feelings in turn, can lead to aggressive action, but not automatically. Cognitive factors intervene. People decide whether they will act aggressively or not on other people’s motives. Supporting evidence comes from research showing that aggressive people often distort other people’s motives. For example, they assume that other people mean them harm when they do not.
The word distort in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ mistrust
○ misinterpret
○ criticize
○ resent
解析:distort所在的文章句子后出现“for example”, 根据for example中的内容,我们可以得出distort在此句中的意思为misinterpret。
3. 并列信息
Example: OG Practice Set 5, question 3
Passage 3: …Absenteeism and lateness hurt productivity and since work was specialized, disrupted the regular factory routine. Industrialization not only produced a fundamental change in the way work was organized; it transformed the very nature of work.
The word disrupted in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ prolonged
○ established
○ followed
○ upset
解析:disrupt在的文章句子中出现and连接的并列信息hurt, 根据这一并列信息,我们可以得出disrupt在此句中的意思为upset。
4. 因果关系
Example: OG Practice Set 6, question 1
Passage 1: …Feeding, courtship, preproduction, and even “rest” are carried out while in constant motion. As a result, practically every aspect of the body form and function of these swimming “machines” is adapted to enhance their ability to swim.
The word enhance in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ use
○ improve
○ counteract
○ balance
解析:enhance在的文章句子中出现表示因果关系的短语as a result, 根据前一句中的原因,我们可以得出enhance在此句中的意思为improve。
5. 连词or
Example: OG The EXPRESSION OF EMOTIONS question 1
Passage 1: Joy and sadness are experienced by people in all cultures around the world, but how can we tell when other people are happy or despondent? It turns out that the expression of many emotions may e universal…
The word despondent in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ curious
○ unhappy
○ thoughtful
○ uncertain
解析:despondent所在的文章句子中出现疑问句,疑问句中的连词or表示选择,因此我们可以得出despondent在此句中的意思为unhappy。
6.数字/时间
Example: OG Practice Set 3, question 11
Passage 6: With the advent of projection, the viewer’s relationship with the image was no longer private, as it had been with earlier peepshow devices such as the Kinetoscope and the Mutoscope, which was a similar machine that reproduced motion by means of successive images on individual photographic cards instead of strips of celluloid. It suddenly became public –an experience that the viewer shared with dozens, score, and even hundreds of others. At the same time, the image that the spectator looked at expanded from the minuscule peepshow dimensions of 1 or 2 inches (in height) to the life-size proportions of 6 or 9 feet.
The word expanded in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ was enlarged
○ was improved
○ was varied
○ was rejected
解析:expanded所在的文章句子中出现从“1 or 2 inches”到“6 or 9 feet”, 因此我们可以轻而易举得出expanded在文章中上下文意思为 was enlarged。
7.标点线索
Example: OG Practice Set 3, question 4
Passage 3: Exhibitors, however, wanted to maximize their profits, which they could do more readily by projecting a handful of films to hundreds of customers at a time (rather than one at a time) and by charging 25 to 50 cents admission…
The word readily in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ frequently
○ easily
○ intelligently
○ obviously
解析:readily 在的文章句子中出现表示附加或补充信息的圆括号(), 根据圆括号中的内容,我们可以得出readily在此句中的意思为easily。
8.构词法
根据构词法,单词的结构有三部分:前缀(prefixes),词干(stems)和后缀(suffixes)。词干是单词的构成基础,前缀和后缀则分别加在词干的前面和后面,从而改变单词的词性和含义。而前缀、后缀和词干都有其固定含义,因此根据构词法,我们就可以利用其固定含义来判断生词的意思。
Example: OG NINETEENTH-CENTURY POLITICS IN THE UNITED STATES
Passage 1: …During his administration he immeasurably enlarged the power of the presidency…
The word immeasurably in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ frequently
○ greatly
○ rapidly
○ reportedly
解析:immeasurably一词的词根为measure(测量、度量),词缀分别为im-(不),-able(能…的),-ly (由形容词变为副词)。因此我们可以判断immeasurably一词在此句中的意思为greatly。
