2、文线索等确定词义。【备考建议】 根据高考对词义猜测题的要求，考生应该注意运用释义法、对比法、相似法、语境推断法及构词推断法解答此类题,并在复习中应该从以下几方面做起：1。根据阅读材料所提供的信息，结合中学生应有的常识和经验，正确判断生词词组的含义或成熟词，在特定语境中表达的具体含义以及一些句子的意思。2。猜测词义的词一般为实词及其词组,注意通过构词、定义、对比、因果、联想、上下文等线索确定词 义的具体内容。3.代词复指理解题也是猜测词义的常考类型.用逻辑关系梳理法、递向寻踪法理清人物及事物 之间的逻辑关系是关键所在。4。注意其【设问形式】1.

5、ellevue, Washington， generally dont flash the same length of green twice in a row， especially at rush hour。 At 9：30am， the full red/yellow/green signal cycle might be 140 seconds. By 9：33am, a burst of additional traffic might push it to 145 seconds。 Less traffic at 9:37am could push it down to 135。

6、 Just like the traffic itself, the timing of the signals changes.That is by design。 Bellevue， a fastgrowing city just east of Seattle, uses a system that is gaining popularity around the US: intersection(十字路口） signals that can adjust in real time to traffic conditions。 These lights， known as adaptiv

8、road。【答案】C指代猜测题。That位于第二段句首，应是指代第一段的内容。根据第一段内容尤其是第一段最后一句“Just like the traffic itself， the timing of the signals changes。（就像交通本身一样，信号灯的时间也会变化)可知，第一段主要讲述的是信号灯的时间会灵活变化；“That is by design.意为“那是有意为之”，由此可推知,That指代第一段中“信号灯的灵活时间。故选C项。【对点模拟练】1Fermats Last Theorem（定理）， first put forward by the French mathema

9、tician Pierre de Fermat in the seventeenth century， the theorem had baffled and beaten the finest mathematical minds, including a French woman scientists who made a major advance in working out the problem, and who had to dress like a man in order to be able to study at the Ecole Polytechnique. 65.

To encourage people to raise questions。 B。 To cause difficulty in understanding。 C。 To provide a person with an explanation。 D. To limit peoples imagination。【答案】B【解析】由句中不难看出Fermat的定理使得最具有数学头脑的科学家绞尽脑汁（

11、beat），并且在句中beaten和baffled处于同等的并列关系，根据这一信息可以推出baffle表示“使困惑、难倒、难以理解”的意思。【考点精准说】2-对比法利用文中的反义词以及表对比关系的词（组）猜测词义。对比是描述，说明事物的常用方式。在对比中，对比的事物是互为相反的,因此根据反义或对比关系可从已知推出未知。利用反义词来说明生词的意义，如反义词hot and cold， perfect and imperfect，甚至前、后句为肯定与否定或是与不是等，在句内词与词之间，在段内句与句之间的关系上起着互为线索的作用。表示对比的信号词有yet, but, while, though, ho

14、猜测题。根据前半句“And contrary to existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions(份）可知，现有的研究认为：你应该避免和体重较重、点大份饭菜的人一起吃饭.后半句认为，你真正应该避免的是the beanpoles with big appetites。由contrary to可推断出,画线词和heavier people（超重的人）相反，结合选项,D选项（瘦瘦高高的人）正好和heavier people正好相反。故选D.【对点模拟练】

15、2A childs birthday party doesnt have to be a hassle ; it can be a basket of fun， according to Beth Anaclerio， an Evaston mother of two， ages 4 and 18 months。 74.

16、ion causing difficulty or trouble. D。 A demand made by guests.【答案】C【解析】根据前句的否定doesnt与后句的肯定can be这一对比关系，可以判断出,为了庆祝孩子的生日，又不至于麻烦，可以买一个生日开心包。Hassle的意思应该与fun相反，而与difficulty, trouble相近。答案为C。【考点精准说】3-释义法有些文章，特别是科技文章，通常会对一些关键词给予定义，我们可以利用定义来猜测这些词的意思。释义法就是根据文章中的字里行间，对生词以定语（从句）、表语甚至用逗号、破折号等标点符号引出并加以解释说明的方式.常见的

17、词有：mean， that is， in other words， for example, for instance， such as。.【真题对点析】3(2020江苏高考真题） For those who can stomach it, working out before breakfast may be more beneficial for health than eating first, according to a study of meal timing and physical activity。Athletes and scientists have long known

19、ver is offered【答案】B词句猜测题。根据下文working out before breakfast may be more beneficial for health than eating first可知，早餐前锻炼可能比先吃饭再锻炼对健康更有益，因此推断这里说的是那些不吃早饭先锻炼的人，因此推断划线词与B项“不吃早饭能应付意思相近。故选B.【对点模拟练】3“Organic produce is always better， ” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides (农药）， and you are generally sup

20、porting family farms instead of large farms。 And more often than not it is locally （本地）grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty。” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend， and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food bu

21、siness.62. What is the meaning of “the organic trend as the words are used in the text?A。 Growing interest in organic food.B。 Better quality of organic food。C。 Rising market for organic food。D. Higher prices of organic food。【答案】A【解析】由Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying something可以推断出，

22、越来越多的顾客像Gold一样开始购买有机食物，其实也就是对这类食物产生了越来越浓厚的兴趣.答案为A。【考点精准说】4-语境推断法任何一篇文章中的句子在内容上都不是绝对孤立的，都跟句子所在的段落及整整篇文章有关。利用上下文提供的情景和线索,进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义，是阅读过程中的一大关键，这也是近年来高考考查的热点。1根据对比关系猜测词义在一个句子或段落中,有对两个事物或现象进行对比性的描述，我们可以根据生词的反义词猜测其词义。表示对比关系的词汇和短语主要有：unlike， not， but, however, despite， in spite of, in contrast 等.表

23、示对比关系的句子结构：while 引导的并列句。例如：A childs birthday party doesnt have to be a hassle； it can be a basket of fun.What does the underlined word hassle （paragraph 1) probably mean?A. a party designed by specialistsB。 a plan requiring careful thoughtC。 a situation causing difficulty or troubleD。 a demand made

24、by guests根据对比关系，这里hassle 和 a basket of fun 是相反的意义，很容易判断理解题的答案为C。2根据比较关系猜测词义同对比关系相反,比较关系表示意义上的相似关系.表示比较关系的词和短语主要有：similarly， like, just as, also, as well as 等。例如:Green loves to talk, and his brothers are similarly loquacious.该句中副词similarly表明短语loves to talk和loquacious 之间的比较关系,其意义相近.由此我们可推断出loquacious的

25、意思是健谈的。3根据因果关系猜测词义在句子或段落中，若两个事物现象之间构成因果关系,我们可以根据这种逻辑关系推测生词词义。例如：I feel that since you are my superior ， it would be presumptuous of me to tell you what to do .The word presumptuous in the middle of the passage is closest in meaning to _ 。Afull of respectBtoo confident and rudeClacking in experienceD

26、too shy and quiet根据since 引导的原因状语从句的内容（既然你是我的上司），我们可以推断这里presumptuous的意思是：冒失的，放肆的意思，后半句的意思是：我告诉你怎么做会是一种放肆/冒失的行为。对应的理解题答案为：B。Pruning is important because it encourages the growth of tender shoots, or young leaves.根据原因状语从句的内容，我们可以判断Pruning的意思是：修剪（树枝等）的意思。4根据同义、近义、并列、替代、说明等关系猜测词义在句子或段落中,我们可以利用熟悉的词语，根据语言

27、环境所表示的关系推断生词词义。例如：William Shakespeare said. The web of our life is of a mingled yarn（纱线），good and ill together。The underlined word mingled in the last paragraph most probably means 。Asimple Bmixed Csad Dhappy句中good and ill together 更具体地说明了 a mingled yarn的意义，据此我们不难推测mingled的意思是：混合的,交织的,答案是：B.Is it po

28、ssible to beat high blood pressure without drugs ？ The answer is yes, according to the researchers at Johns Hopkins and three other medical centers.根据and three other medical centers 这种并列关系，我们很容易推断出：Johns Hopkins 是一家医疗中心。【真题对点析】4 （2019江苏卷)In the 1960s,while studying the volcanic history of Yellowston

29、e National Park，Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that，oddly，had not troubled anyone before：he couldnt find the parks volcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in nature thats what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features。 But Christian

30、sen couldnt find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us，when we talk about volcanoes，think of the classic cone（圆锥体）shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro,which are created when erupting magma（岩浆)piles up。 These can form remarkably quickly。 In 1943，a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising fro

31、m a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high.

35、h a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans。60. What does the underlined word ”blowup” in the last paragraph most probably mean? A. Hot-air balloon.B. Digital camera. C.

36、们大部分人想象的那种圆锥体形状的高耸的样子,而是一个巨大的洞,这个洞太大了以至于从地面上的任何地方都看不见。【答案】C 【解析】词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句Just at this time NASA decided to test some new highaltitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a

37、 nice blowup for one of the visitors centers.可知,美国国家航空和宇宙航行局为测试一些新的高海拔照相机而拍摄了黄石公园的照片。一位深思熟虑的官员把其中的一些照片副本转交给了公园管理部门，认为他们可能会将其放大以供一个游客中心展示.故可知，此处意为将照片放大，选C.【对点模拟练】4.。.。.She became stern with Poppy.“Youre foolish， Poppy，” she said. “I have my pride， Poppy answered. “False pride，” she hurled(斥责)back at

38、him。3. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “stern” in paragraph 5？A。 patientB。 angryC. respectfulD. afraid。 【答案】B 【解析】词义猜测题。下文“Youre foolish， Poppy，” she said. “I have my pride,” Poppy answered. “False pride，” she hurled（斥责)back at him。意思是“你真傻，Poppy”她说。“我有我的骄傲，” Poppy回答.“错误的骄傲，”她狠狠地回击

39、他.由此可知She became stern with Poppy。意思是她对Poppy很生气.“stern意思是生气的，A。 patient有耐心的；B。 angry生气的;C. respectful尊敬的；D. afraid.害怕的，故选B。【考点精准说】4-构词推断法阅读中常常会遇到一些由熟悉的单词派生或合成的新词。掌握构词法对猜测词义很有帮助.如：unforeseeable.这个词,可以根据构词法把它拆成un, fore, see , able；其中 see 是词根，fore是“先，前,预”的含义，un是否定，able是“能的，可的,因此unforeseeable是“未能预见到的”意思

40、。1根据前缀猜测词义例如：Do you have any strong opinion on coeducational or singlesex schools？根据词根educational （教育的），结合前缀co（共同，一起)，我们便可以猜出coeducational的意思是：男女同校教育的意思。2根据后缀猜测词义例如:Its a quiet， comfortable hotel overlooking （俯瞰） the bay in an uncommercialized Cornish fishing village on Englands most southerly point

41、后缀 ise/ize意思是使成为；使化，结合词根commercial（商业的），不难猜出 uncommercialized 的意思是：未被商业化的.3根据复合词的各部分猜测词义例如：Good tool design is important in the prevention of overuse injuries. Welldesigned tools and equipment will require less force to operate them and prevent awkward（别扭的)hand positions。Welldesigned 或许是个生词，但我们分析该词的

42、结构后，就能推测出其含义。它由well (好,优秀）和design （设计)两部分组成,合在一起便是设计精巧的意思。We live in a technological society where most goods are massproduced by unskilled labor. Because of this, most people that craft (手艺） no longer exists.根据合成词中的mass（大量的)和produce（生产），我们可以推测 massproduce的意思是：大批量生产;规模生产的意思。【真题对点练】5（2020北京高考真题) Cert

57、going to put it in my Grandmas Box.(“请把那支水枪给我，我说.“我要把它放在我奶奶的盒子里。）”由此可知，作者与学生进行对话的目的是收集水枪。故选A。2词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“I would return the belonging”结合上文提到作者把学生带到学校的玩具称为“禁果”，且作者的“盒子”里装的就是“禁果,所以作者等到这些禁果的拥有者在一天结束的时候出现，然后就会归还他们的物品。由此可知，划线词意思为“禁果的拥有者”。故选D.3细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“From then on instead of coming to ask their
