托福词汇题解决方法(二)。对于词汇题的解决也是有技巧可言的。那么让我们继续看一下有哪些解决方法吧。
3. 通过解释词汇来判断
所谓解释词汇,也就是后面的句子或短语词汇来解释前面的词,常见的标志词有:
contribute to, be responsible for, account for, since, therefore, because, in which
实例:His big break came with the novel So big(1924) ,which was awarded the Pulitzer in literature.
问题: the word break in this sentence could best be replaced by ___
A. rupture B. revelation C. opportunity D. rest
which was awarded the Pulitzer in Literature告诉我们一定考查的是正态度,所以答案不可能是A或D,应该选C Opportunity,代表一种有利的状态或合适的时机。
4. 从动宾关系判断
托福阅读词汇题还有这种做法,就是看看宾语能否和动词搭配,考生可以从动词短语搭配去做判断。
实例:The oxidation of exhaust gases is one of primary sources of the world’s pollutions. The brown haze that is poised over some of the world’s largest cities is properly called photochemical smog.
The word poised in this sentence is closest in meaning to__
A. interacting B. sitting C. blowing D. poisoning
首先从搭配关系上可以排除interacting ,因为interact的搭配是with。然后可以从上下文关系排除blowing,因为blow over就吹走了不会有smog。同时D选项的poisoning在作为及物动词的时候才有pollute的含义,替换到本句中式不及物的用法只有一种含义表示投毒也不符合,所以选B。
5. 形容词修饰名词关系判定
不是每个形容词都可以修饰所有的名词。这就好比很少会有人去说一个队伍排得很粗,而一般都队伍排得很长,哪怕有很多人插队造成了队伍看上去很粗的感觉。
实例:When the gas reaches the air, it comes into contact with available oxygen from atmosphere and combines with the oxygen to produce nitrogen dioxide (No2),which is a gas with a brownish hue.
The word hue in this sentence is closest in meaning to
A. color B. odor C. thickness D. smoke
对于本题你会发现有个小词brownish呈褐色的,首先从形容词修饰名词关系可以直接排除B odor和C thickness,其次可以通过a gas with brownish hue前面的gas排除D选项smoke,用词重复。所以正确答案是A。
