英語閱讀理解中的猜詞方法

㈠ 詞義猜測八法

詞義猜測八法

猜測生詞詞義是高考英語閱讀理解中的一個重要帆搭物考點，要想做好閱讀理解猜測詞義題，就必須要掌握一些猜詞方法，具備一定的猜詞能力。下面以2005年高考試題為例枝銷，介紹幾種行之有效的猜測生詞詞義的方法。

一、 同義解釋法

同義解釋形式多樣，有的利用or, that is (to say), in other words, namely等進行解釋，有的利用破折號，同位語（從句），定語從句或同義詞、近義詞等進行解釋。例如：

1. （湖北，A篇）A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own.

由定義可知territory的意思是「領域」、 「領土」。

2. （江蘇，E篇）The web of our life is of a min-gled yarn (紗線), good and ill together.

根據其後的同位語good and ill together可判斷，mingled的意思是mixed。

3. （北京，C篇）This results in unusual and self- destructive behavior called zoochosis.

既然不正常的、自我毀滅的行為叫做zoochosis，那麼可推斷zoochosis的意思為：「行為古怪」。

二、前後對比法

有時作者對文章中的生詞給出了一定的對比背景，以反義或對照方式出現態液。例如：

1. （廣東，C篇）Waves are one of nature』s ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey.

下文的sending off應與picking up意思相反，所以picking up應為collecting（聚積）。

2. （重慶，D篇）It is true that lighthouses were built in out-of-the-way places. But on a pleasant sunny summer day, this very isolation has a natural beauty that many people will love to experience.

根據But 後的內容可知，out-of-the-way與isola-tion意義相近，所以其義為faraway 或isolated。

3. （北京，D篇）However obvious these facts may appear at first glance, they are actually not so obvious as they seem except we take special pains to think about this subject.

由上文的they are actually not so obvious as they seem 及文中的except可知，take special pains應與該句意思相反，據此可推斷它與try very hard意義相近。

三、 舉例說明法

根據生詞後舉出的有關例子進行適當歸納，即使不能完全猜測生詞的詞義，也能猜出大致意義。例如：

1. （湖南，A篇）More American people take their troubles with them on holiday, according to a new survey. Although 40 percent said....

根據下文舉出的數字可知，survey是research（調查）之意。

2. （廣東，B篇）Unlike vitamin C, leadership skills can』t be easily swallowed down. They must be care-fully cultivated.

下文從三個方面論述了如何培養領導才能，所以cultivate的意思應與develop相似。

四、 上下文暗示法

根據上下文與生詞密切相關的句子，對生詞進行合情合理同時合乎上下文語境的推測。例如：

1. （湖南，B篇）「We』ve collected foreign coins for years—since our families went on holiday to Tenerife.」 she explains. 「That was before the Euro, so we put pe－setas in」. Lauren continues: 「I find a coin in the road, go to get it and get run over...」

根據上下文可知pesetas是一種硬幣。

2. （上海，D篇）Devoted birdwatchers are fast be-ing joined by a new breed of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches（雀科鳴鳥） on a Sunday walk or putting up a bird-box in the back garden.

根據whose interest is satiated by watching...in the back garden.可知, satiated應該是「使……滿足(satisfied)」之意。

3. （天津，B篇）Lack of parent willpower may contribute more to juvenile obesity than under-exercis-ing or overeating.

Research suggests that having overweight parents is a big influence upon a child』s weight...

由下文可知這一句的意思是「缺乏父母的意志力可能比缺乏鍛煉或過量飲食更容易導致兒童時期的超重。」所以juvenile obesity意思是childhood overweight。

五、 因果推斷法

有時對生詞的詞義需要結合上下文的因果關系進行推斷，既可根據原因推測結果，也可根據結果推測原因。例如：

1. （江西，D篇）The plant is often pruned so that it remains only 60 to 90 centimeters high.

由so that後的句意,可推斷prune意為「剪枝、修剪」。

2. （上海，B篇）「But,」 said Kim, 「I feel that since you are my superior, it would be presumptuous of me to tell you what to do.」

因為對方是上級，所以如果告訴對方做什麼，自己會認為是冒犯了對方，是自以為是，所以presump-tuous與too confident and rude意義相近。

六、 經驗常識法

有的生詞的猜測要求利用自身的生活經驗及科學常識進行分析推斷。例如：

1. （福建，C篇）Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming.

結合下文helping to slow global warming與科學常識，不難知道mop up意為「吸收(take in)」。

2. （江蘇，C篇）Towards the evening, there comes the grand finale of the opening day, an extremely ex-citing horserace.

根據生活常識及上文Towards the evening可知the horserace是這一天的最後一項活動，所以finale應為「last part」。

七、 基本構詞法

根據基本的構詞法知識（前綴、後綴、復合等）來推測生詞的詞義。例如：

（上海，B篇）But what I expect is for you to think independently and introce new ideas. I need more input from you—more feedback on how things are going.

初看起來，independently，input和feedback非常生疏，但利用構詞法知識不難猜測它們的詞義。in-dependently是depend加後綴-ent，加前綴in-，再加後綴-ly而成的，那就是「獨立地」。input=in（進入）+put（放）, 故input的意思為「輸入」。feedback=feed（輸入）+back（回）, 由此可知feedback意為「反饋，反應」。

八、 音譯法

對文章中的人名、地名、動物名、建築物名以及山脈、河流、島嶼、海洋等專用名詞及漢語中的外來詞等，常可通過音譯來解決。當然有的詞甚至不需要音譯，明白是人名、地名，並能理清之間的關系即可。

㈡ 如何提高英語考試閱讀題的猜詞技巧(3)

八、語境線索或上下文

即利用語境來推測生詞含義的方法。這是我們用來推測詞義的主要方法之一。

例一：The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society—a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.

“My grandmothers did not do anything, but keep house and serve everybody, they were programmed to do that,” said Emily Cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.

根據上下文我們可以很容易得出chapter的詞義為這個組織the Red Hat Society的一個分支。

例二：As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency ( 一貫性 )is very important teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality ( 道德 ). Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and don’t practice what they preach ( teach ), their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure ( 不穩定 )when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.

根據上下文我們可知precept的詞義為“說教”。

例三：Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!

Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day. Don’t check your e-mail every day. Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets annoying.

根據語境我們知道available的詞義為“可與之交談的”或“有空的”。

例四：We found that bar at last. I didn’t have to ask again, for there it was in big letters over the window—Star Bar. There were some iron tables outside with plastic chairs around them. A few people sat listlessly around, looking at a portable television set that someone had brought out of the bar. They were all in thin summer dresses or short sleeved-shirts; even at that late hour it was stifling. Two thin dogs lay under one of the tables with their tongues out, and some of the women were fanning themselves unenthusiastically (無精打採的) with magazines.

根據語境我們猜出stifling的詞義為“極熱的”。

九、標點符號的暗示

例一：The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society—a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.

破折號後面的部分對the Red Hat Society作了解釋，是“一個認為老年人應該有自己樂趣的團體”。

例二：The largest player—Shanghai Bashi Tourism Car Rental Center offers a wide variety of choices—deluxe sedans, minivans, station wagons, coaches. Santana sedans are the big favorite.

第二個破折號後面的deluxe sedans, minivans, station wagons, coaches應該指的是汽車的品牌或種類。

十、同義詞的替代關系

例句：Although he often had the opportunity, Mr. Tritt was never able to steal money from a customer. This would have endangered his position at the bank, and he didn’t want to jeopardize his future.

為避免重復使用endanger一詞， 用同義詞jeopardize來替代它, 我們推知jeopardize詞義為“使陷入危險，危及，危害”。

十一、利用主系表結構來猜詞

主系表結構的句子有兩種功能：一是說明主語的形狀和特徵;二是主語和表語是同位關系。

例一：To malign is to slander an innocent person.

表語意為“誹謗無辜的人”， 那樣主語就是“中傷，誹謗”的意思。

例二：Insomnia is the inability of falling asleep or sleeping restlessly.

表語意為“睡不著”，主語Insomnia無疑就是“失眠”了。

十二、生活常識

根據日常生活中的常識和相關的背景知識，大膽想像，合理發揮，推測出生詞的含義。

例一：Warm-blooded desert animals, such as rats and mice, rest ring the day, often staying in cool underground burrows.

根據常識我們知道鼠類一般藏在洞里，因此生詞burrows的意思為“地洞，洞穴”。

例二：The snake slithered through the grass.

根據有關蛇的生活習性的知識，我們可以推測出slithered的詞義為“爬行”。

十三、構詞法

英語詞彙的構詞法主要有三種：派生，合成，轉化構詞。

我們主要利用派生構詞來推斷生詞的含義。

詞根是單詞最基本的部分，表達單詞的基本含義。在詞根的前面或後面加上詞綴，可以用來引申或轉變原詞的意義。一般來說，前綴改變詞根的意思;後綴改變詞性。

常見的前綴有：super- 超……

mini- 小型的……

re- 再，又……

post- 後

pre- 前

fore- 前

under- 下

後綴有：

-ment 名詞的後綴

-less 不，無

-proof 防……的

例句：Remember that people on line may not be who they seem. Because you can’t see or even hear the person, it would be easy for someone to misrepresent himself/herself. Thus someone says “She is a 12-year-old girl ”could really be an old man.

根據語境和misrepresent的構詞方式， 前綴mis-的意思是“誤，錯-的”，詞根represent的意思是“表達，展示”之意, 合在一起我們知道misrepresent的詞義為“誤述，歪曲”。

十四、文中代詞指代的推測

高考題年年考查對文中代詞實際指代的對象。一般來說它實際指代的對象在含有代詞的句子前半部分或前一句話。我們把它叫做“前指”。

例一：Demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped at noon as the press rported the story. And even if they start again, Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal.”We have more important things to do,” he said.

根據我們上面講到的，they應該指上一句中的Demands for pigeon-delivered money。

例二：The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of “red herrings”, or false clues, to mislead them.

根據語境them.指代上文的readers。

雖然掌握一些猜詞技巧能幫助我們猜測詞義，但是我們不能只依靠這些。最重要的還是掌握全篇文。

㈢ 英語閱讀理解解題技巧：猜詞

1 通過因果關系猜詞

通過因果關系猜詞，首先是找出生詞與上下文之間的邏輯關系，然後才能猜詞。有時文章藉助關或掘判聯詞表示前因後果。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，可猜出blame的詞義是"責備"。

2.通過同義詞和反義詞的關系猜詞

通過同義詞猜詞，一是要看由and或or連接的同義詞片語，如happy and *，即使我們不認識*這個詞，也可以知道它是愉快的意思;二是看在進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、Mars、Jupiter均為生詞，但只要知道planets就可猜出這幾個詞都屬於"行星"這一義域。通過反義詞猜詞，一是看錶轉折關系的連詞或副詞，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.通衫改過構詞法猜詞

在閱讀文章時，我們總會遇上一些新詞彙，有時很難根據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，如掌握了一些常用的詞根、前綴、後綴等語法知識，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，於是便有一段乾旱的時期，即drought，由此可見drought意思為"久旱"，"旱災"。而a dry period和drought是同義語。這種同義或釋義關系常由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是同類關系，同屬fruit類，因此它們是兩樣水果，准確地說，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在特徵的描寫。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。後面更散棗詳盡地描述了該鳥類的生活習性。

㈣ 英語閱讀中的猜詞技巧

英語閱讀中的猜詞技巧

在英語閱讀中，我們自然會遇到許多生詞。下面是我分享的英語閱讀中的猜詞技巧，歡迎大家閱讀！

一、針對性解釋

針對性解釋是作者為了更好地表達思想，在文章中對一些重要的概念、難懂的術語或詞彙等所作的解釋。這些解釋提供的信息具有明確的針對性，利用它們猜詞義比較容易。

1.根據定義猜測詞義

如果生詞是句子或段落所解釋的定義，理解句子或段落本身就是推斷詞義。例如：

Anthropology is the scientific study of man.

由定義可知，anthropology就是「研究人類的科學」。

In slang the term 「jam」 constitutes a state of being in which a person finds himself or herself in a difficult situation.

同樣，從上下文的定義可知jam一詞在俚語中的意思是「困境」。

定義句的謂語動詞多為：be，mean，deal with，be considered，to be，refer to，be called，be known as，define，represent，signify，constitute等。

2.根據復述猜測詞義

雖然復述不如定義那樣嚴謹、詳細，但是提供的`信息足以使閱讀者猜出生詞詞義。復述部分可以是適當詞、短語或是從句。

同位語，例如：

Semantics，the study of the meaning of words，is necessary if you are to speak and read intelligently.

此例逗號中短語意為「對詞意義進行研究的學科」。該短語與前面生詞semantics是同位關系，因此我們不難猜出semantics指「語義學」。

在復述中構成同位關系的兩部分之間多用逗號連接，有時也使用破折號、冒號、分號、引號和括弧等。

二、內在邏輯關系

根據內在邏輯關系推測詞義是指運用語言知識分析和判斷相關信息之間存在的邏輯關系，然後根據邏輯關系推斷生詞詞義或大致義域。

1.根據對比關系猜測詞義

在一個句子或段落中，有對兩個事物或現象進行對比性的描述，我們可以根據生詞或難詞的反義詞猜測其詞義。例如：

Andrew is one of the most supercilious men I know.His brother，in contrast，is quite humble and modest.

該例中supercilious對許多人來說可能是個生詞，但是句中短語in contrast（相對照的，相對比的）提示我們supercilious和後面片語humble and modest（謙卑又謙虛）是對比關系。分析出這種關系後，我們便能猜出supercilious意為「目空一切的，傲慢的」。

2.根據比較關系猜測詞義

同對比關系相反，比較關系表示意義上的相似關系，例如：

Green loves to talk，and his brothers are similarly loquacious.

該句中副詞similarly表明短語loves to talk與生詞loquacious之間的比較關系，以此可以推斷出loquacious詞義為「健談的」。

表示比較關系的詞和短語主要是similarly，like，just as，also等。

3.根據因果關系猜測詞義

在句子或段落中，若兩個事物、現象之間構成因果關系，我們可以根據這種邏輯關系推知生詞詞義。例如：

Tom is considered an autocratic administrator because he makes decisions without seeking the opinions of others.

根據原因狀語從句的內容，我們可以推斷出生詞autocratic指「獨斷專行的」。

There were so many demonstrort in the Red Square that he had to elbow his way through the crowd.

此句為結果狀語從句，根據從句的描述「許多者」，我們便可推知elbow的詞義為「擠、擠過」。

三、外部相關因素

外部相關因素是指篇章（句子或段落）以外的其他知識。有時僅靠分析篇章內在邏輯關系無法猜出詞義。這時，就需要運用生活經驗和普通常識確定詞義。例如：

Husband ：It』s really cold out tonight.

Wife：Sure it is.My hands are practically numb.How about lighting the furnace?

根據生活經驗，天氣寒冷時，手肯定是「凍僵的，凍得麻木的」。

The snake slithered through the grass.

根據有關蛇的生活習性的知識，我們可以推斷出slither詞義為「爬行」。

綜上所述，利用各種已知信息推測、判斷詞義是一項重要的閱讀技巧。在實踐中，我們可以靈活運用上面提到的幾種猜測技巧，排除生詞的障礙，順利理解文章想內容，提高閱讀速度和閱讀的准確性。

㈦ 猜詞法在英語閱讀理解中的運用

猜詞法在英語閱讀理解中的運用有：舉例法、情景法、構詞法。

1、舉例法。

有些生詞的後面，會列舉一些實例。此外，如果還有一些對比作為補充的話，就比較容易推斷出這個生詞的意思。例：Some trains carries cargo、such as rice、oil and military supplies（軍用物資）、while others carries only passengers.

解析：cargo對大多考生來說，都是一個生詞。如果根據後面表示舉例的短語such as，以及所列舉的一系列貨物，而且，句中有一個while表對比，說明cargo和passengers是對應關系。因此可以猜測出cargo的意思應該是「貨物」。

解析：可以運用構詞法猜測出unwisely的意思。wise是學過的詞，意思是「明智的」，加上後綴ly變成副詞wisely，「明智地」，再加上否定前綴un構成其反義詞unwisely，「不明智地」。同時，通過while，知道judiciously和unwisely是一對反義詞，從而可以利用反義詞法，進一步猜測出judiciously的意思為「明智地」。
