广度例1：The arms race became a way to measure who was
winning .And since the central battlefield was quiet, both sides helped allies in
their local struggles-in other words, proxy(代理人) wars. （外交学院基础英语真题）
例2： It is a distressing fact that any system of censorship is bound, upon occasion,
to treat unjust a particular work of art—to find pornography where there is only
gentle eroticism(色情) to find obscenity where none really exists, or to find both
where the work’s existence ought to be tolerate because it serves a larger moral
purpose. That is the price one has to be prepared to pay for censorship ---even
liberal censorship. (北京外国语大学基础英语2005年阅读Passage One) 例3：Depressed by the appalling grotesqueries(怪诞) of the election season –the
smears, leaks, lies and alibis(托辞)—and crushed by my beloved Cardinals’
obliteration(抹去) at the hands of the unstoppable Red Sox, I search for a bit of encouragement, an infinitesimal(极小，无穷小) spark to raise my sagging(低垂)
spirits. （上海交通大学英语水平考试2005）例4: The
bombardments of World War II were followed by the depredations(蹂躏) of profiteers
and politicians–for–rent who reduced the city to a demoralized shadow of itself,

词汇的深度一、熟词生义辨析熟词生义也叫作一词多义，词汇的第三、四个
意思往往在学习时被忽略，然而它们却是词的深度的一个最典型的表现之一。
例1：Macaulay and Carlyle were in their different ways arresting（引人注目的）,
but at the heavy cost of naturalness.(清华大学基础英语2005) 例2：I should have looked upon it without rapture, and should have commented upon
it inwardly after this fashion（达到相当程度）.(武汉大学基础英语2004) 二、易混词汇辨析北师大2004年英研基英考试中就考了下面这些词的辨析：
process(过程) vs. procession(行列) progress(前进的动作) vs. progression(前进的过程) superfluous(多余的) vs. supercilious(自大的) vs. superficial(表面的) disposition(性情) vs.
disposal(处置) retreat(撤退) vs.
recede(退出) 三、望文生义词(假词根，容易会错意的词) 南京大学
在其2005年基础英语试题中，要求考生paraphrase的十个词汇：epigram, wield, parlance,
harangue, laconic, genre, gratuitous, bootlessness, representation, loquacity，
这里面大多数词都容易从词根上会错意。
