之相关信息及技巧梳理
【命题趋势】 1、要求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、要求猜测词义的词一般为实词及其词组， 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、根据因果关系进行猜测
is, it will break easily.
3.The herdsman, who looks after sheep, earns

about 650 yuan a year.
4.Anthropology is the scientific study of man.
2、同义解释法
作者利用or, that is (to say), in other words, namely等 释义词或短语进行解释；
3、根据构词法（合成、派生、转化等）进行猜测
在英语中，有很多词可以在前面加前缀，在后面加后缀， 从而构成一个词，乍看起来，这个词可能是新词，但掌握 了一定的构词知识，就不难猜出它的词义。 例如： “Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10,” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive and creative in that they built a sense of drama based on a subject.”
【设问形式】
1.The underlined word “…” in the second(third…) paragraph refers to(means) ______.
2.By saying “…” in the first(second…) paragraph, the author means that ______.
to…(paragraph…)? 6.The underlined sentence in the … paragraph
probably means that _____.

或利用破折号、同位语、同位语从句、定语从句、近义 词等进行解释；
或用定义法这一更直白的解释方法对生词进行解释。此法 通常涉及的动词有：be, mean, deal with, be considered, refer to, be called, be known as, with等

后句子，对生词进行合情合理又合乎上下文语境的
