1、雅思阅读技巧2招搞定生词 在雅思阅读中,遇到生词是很常见的事,然而市面也有很多相对应的技巧。 今天给大家带来了雅思阅读技巧2招搞定生词,希望能够帮助到大家,一起来学习吧。雅思阅读技巧2招搞定生词一、利用上下文线索猜测词义。1.根据同义、反义关系猜词。todays teenagers seem to be more liberal in their ideas than their _ grandparents.a. freethinkingb. traditionalc. oldd. happytraditional与liberal意思相反,故选b。2.根据句意或段落*的上、下文猜测词义。kl

2、ebold and harris felt _ and wanted to revenge against those who disliked playing together with them or laughed at them.a. discouragedb. ashamedc. tiredd. separated根据下文的disliked playing together with them判断此处应为感到孤立,故选d。二、利用构词法猜测词义。此法包括利用前、后缀及合成词猜测词义。1.用前、后缀猜测词义。英语中的前缀、后缀构词颇多,且特定的缀往往表示特定的含义,把握住这一点,可起到

3、以不变应万变的效果。1)he had been overworking and fell ill at last.overwork是由前缀over加动词构成,over有超过,过于之意,overwork意思是工作过多,劳累过度。再如,overburden负担过重,overcharge要价过高,overdo做得过分。英语中常用的前缀还有:mis错,误:misfortune不幸;mislead误导;mismanage处理不当mid中央:midnight半夜;midway半路under低于:underdone半生不熟的;underestimate低估anti反对:antibody抗体;anticycl

4、one反气旋;antifreeze防冻剂下面划线单词为常见后缀派生词:1)you must stop dreaming and face reality.(ty为名词的标志)2)the country is trying to popularize education. (ize为及物动词的标志,再如realize, modernize)2.利用合成词猜测词义。family members take turns choosing a special activity for the evening, and everyone partakes in for fun.根据短语构成及上下文意思看,

5、此处partakes in相当于takes part in。再如break outoutbreak(名词爆发),set outoutset(名词起始),come income(名词收入)雅思阅读中的“绊脚绳”要小心雅思阅读“绊脚绳”一:细节题考查精确定位。雅思阅读中的细节题其实不难,但前提是定位的点要对。比如下面这个例题:two species of deer have been prevalent in the puget sound area of washington state in the pacific northwest of the united states. the bla

6、ck-tailed deer, a lowland, west-side cousin of the mule deer of eastern washington, is now the most common. the other species, the columbian white-tailed deer, in earlier times was common in the open prairie country, it is now restricted to the low, marshy islands and flood plains along the lower co

7、lumbia river.according to paragraph 1, which of the following is true of the white-tailed deer of puget sound?a. it is native to lowlands and marshes.b. it is more closely related to the mule deer of eastern washington than to other types of deer.c. it has replaced the black-tailed deer in the open

8、prairie.d. it no longer lives in a particular type of habitat that it once occupied.这是一个典型的细节题,在该题题干中,有的考生会选择puget sound作为关键词回原文定位,因为它是专有名词,在文中会比较显眼;但是如果一旦选择了这个地名,势必会定位在该段的第一句话,细节题往往是定位在哪句就在哪句找答案,这样的话考生是选不出正确答案的,因为定位不精确。其实正确的关键词应该是white-tailed deer,这个用连字符连接的词在*中也是比较醒目的,按该词定位应是该段最后一句话。所以根据它的意思应该选d项。其

9、中a项与原句意思不符,b和c都与定位句信息无关。我们再来看另外一个否定事实细节题的例子:plant communities assemble themselves flexibly, and their structure depends on the particular history of the area. ecologists use the term succession to refer to the changes that happen in plant communities and ecosystems over time. the first community in

10、a succession is called a pioneer community, while the long-lived community at the end of succession is called a climax community. pioneer and successional plant communities are said to change over periods from 1 to 500 years. these changes-in plant numbers and the mix of species-are cumulative. clim

11、ax communities themselves change but over periods of time greater than about 500 years.according to paragraph 1, which of the following is not true of climax communities?a. they occur at the end of a succession.b. they last longer than any other type of community.c. the numbers of plants in them and

12、 the mix of species do not changed. they remain stable for at least 500 years at a time.这个题大家都会选择用climax communities去定位,但在定位过程中会出现很多问题。首先考生要学会跳跃式定位,即根据*中特殊的标点符号以及最醒目的词来搜索我们真正需要的关键词。文中的particular是加了阴影的,succession是在引号里面的,都非常醒目,通过看这两个词我们会发现它们附近没有我们需要的东西;再比较突出的就是数字及破折号,在500的前方有a climax community,但它是单数,与

13、题干关键词不完全匹配,细节题讲究的是精确定位,所以我们应该选择500后方的climax communities,即该段的最后一句话。否定事实细节题的出题思路有两种:一是无中生有,即根据定位点的内容,四个选项只有一个没有提到,这种思路多适用于选项比较简短的题目;二是张冠李戴,即根据定位点的内容表述,只有一个选项与之矛盾,这种思路多适应于选项比较长的题目。就这个例题而言,根据定位的最后一句话,从表述上来说跟它相关的只有c和d两个选项,d项的意思与原句相符,而c项与原句矛盾,所以正确答案是c。综上所述,做阅读的细节题,最重要的一点就是要尽量地去精确定位。雅思阅读“绊脚绳”二: 无方向中隐藏方向。阅读

14、考试中绝大部分题目都是对应具体段落的,这会为考生节省很多时间。但是也不排除有少量题目的范围比较大或比较模糊,考生在寻找答案时难免一头雾水,费时费力。其实这些看似没有明确定位方向的题目都是暗藏玄机的。下面我们就来看一个例子:wind power has a significant cost advantage over nuclear power and has become competitive with coal-fired power plants in many places. with new technological advances and mass production, p

15、rojected cost declines should make wind power one of the worlds cheapest ways to produce electricity. in the long run, electricity from large wind farms in remote areas might be used to make hydrogen gas from water during periods when there is less than peak demand for electricity. the hydrogen gas

16、could then be fed into a storage system and used to generate electricity when additional or backup power is needed.wind power is most economical in areas with steady winds. in areas where the wind dies down, backup electricity from a utility company or from an energy storage system becomes necessary

17、. backup power could also be provided by linking wind farms with a solar cell, with conventional or pumped-storage hydropower, or with efficient natural-gas-burning turbines. some drawbacks to wind farms include visual pollution and noise, although these can be overcome by improving their design and

18、 locating them in isolated areas.based on the information in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4, what can be inferred about the states of north dakota, south dakota, and texas mentioned at the end of paragraph 1?a.they rely largely on coal-fired power plants.b.they contain remote areas where the winds rare

19、ly die down.c.over 1 percent of the electricity in these states is produced by wind farms.d.wind farms in these states are being expanded to meet the power needs of the united states.这个题目的题干涉及到三个段落,而事实上考生根本不需要去看第一段的内容,因为答案依据的是第三、四段的信息,但是这两个段落如果都看的话内容也不少,从应试的角度来说太费时间。正确的做法应该是从选项中挖掘一下方向。a项里大家一般都会选择有连字

20、符的coal-fired作为关键词去定位,b项没有比较显眼的词就只能选名词短语remote areas,c项选1 percent, d项选the united states。选完关键词我们不难发现除了b项不大好定位以外,其他三个选项的关键词都很醒目。经过定位,a项应该去比对第3段的第一句话,意思明显矛盾;b项不好找,可以暂且跳过;c项和d项的关键词在这两段都找不到,这就属于阅读中推理题的错误答案设计方法之一无中生有。所以虽然我们没有去验证b项的说法是否正确,但经过排除也只能选b了。这样的做题方法就会省时省力,且答案也是正确的。在考试中,这种情况往往会影响考生的心情,进而影响水平的发挥,但是只要

21、我们了解了bc出题的套路就能把它们轻松搞定。考场如战场,只有知己知彼方能百战百胜。了解了bc在设计题目时所使用的“绊脚绳”,我们就可以很好地做到事半功倍。雅思阅读*都出自哪些报刊分析发现,雅思阅读考试a类*大多选自国外人文类、经济类和科学类的知名报纸、杂志或政府各部门(uk及世界各国) 的社会发展报告。如:经济学家杂志economist,金融时报(financial times), 卫报(guardian) ,美国国家地理杂志(national geographic), new scientist, science, popular science 和 nature等。g类*从09年5月份开始

22、,考察的内容导向有所变化,从原来的以“培训”为导向逐步转变为以“工作”为导向。这一背景材料的转变值得引起考生的关注。以下是摘录自雅思考试官方网站的相关内容:from 1 may 20xx, we are making a small but important change to the general training reading paper.currently, section 2 of the general training reading paper focuses on the training context. from 1 may 20xx, this section wi

23、ll focus on the work context (e.g. applying for jobs, company policies, pay and conditions, workplace facilities, staff development etc).the general training module is increasingly recognised by employers, professional bodies and immigration authorities. this change will ensure that the module will

24、more closely meet the needs of candidates who take ielts for employment or immigration purposes.the other sections of the general training reading paper will remain unchanged.在了解了以上阅读考试的题源出处之后,考生平时进行泛读的时候,可以多选择上面提到的报刊杂志的内容作为材料。这样可以在帮助考生扩大相关背景知识的同时,使得考生能够了解雅思阅读*的行文风格和常见结构。g类的考生在平常准备考试的过程中一定要重视这个自09年5

25、月1日起开始的 small but important的变化。重点补充一些工作类型的*,例如申请工作、公司政策、工作环境等等。并且有条件的话,多做一些关于商务英语和职场英语方面的训练。当然,这里老师要向考生说明的是,如一些考试*在上述网站上搜索起来有困难,考生可以在维京百科上搜索相关的词条内容。拿澳洲考拉举个例子,这是我们雅思考试中考过的有关澳洲的较有特色的动物。很多考生对于这个名字不陌生,但是具体细节谈论起来,相关的知识就比较匮乏了。那么现在只要在搜索框内输入koala则会出现很多相关的内容,以下仅为部分摘录,the koala is found in coastal regions of

26、eastern and southern australia, from near adelaide to the southern part of cape york peninsula. populations also extend for considerable distances inland in regions with enough moisture to support suitable woodlands. the koala is not found in tasmania or western australia.通过此段,考生可以大致了解考拉的分布主要在澳洲东部及南部沿海地区,从阿德莱德到约克角半岛南部。而在塔斯马尼亚及西澳地区则没有发现考拉。a baby koala is referred to as a joey and is hairless, blind, and earless. at birth the joey, only a qu
