易错点16 阅读理解：词义猜测题(4大陷阱)-备战2024年高考英语考试易错题(解析版)
易错点16 阅读理解词义猜测题目录01 易错陷阱（3大陷阱）02 举一反三【易错点提醒一】词义/词组指代易混易错点【易错点提醒二】代词指代猜测易混易错点【易错点提醒三】句意猜测易混易错点03 易错题通关易错陷阱1：词义/词组指代易混易错点。
【分析】这类题错误主要因为基础词汇量积累和词根词缀积累不足，根据构词法猜词是阅读理解必不可少的能力。
平时应当大量积累单词，同时利用前后的同位关系或后面的词义或句意进行猜测。
易错陷阱2：代词指代猜测易混易错点。
【分析】阅读材料中的每个词与它前面的词语或句子甚至段落都有着密切的关联。
有时代词与指代的对象相隔较远，应当对前面提到的内容进行总结，认真查找，才能得出代词所指代的事。
易错陷阱3：句意猜测易混易错点。
【分析】此类题型应当定位画线句子，充分利用语法和逻辑关系分析原句。
同时分析理解画线句前后的语境，合理归纳总结找出与原句意思相同的选项并代入画线处验证。
切不可因为句中出现熟词，而脱离语境，望文生义。
【易错点提醒一】词义/词组指代易混易错点【例1】（湖南省常德市临澧一中2023-2024学年高三阶段试题）She programmed an IBM 7030 Stretch computer, providing faster calculations for an accurate Earthmodel. This detailed mathematical model of the shape of the Earth was a building block for what would become the GPS orbit.What does the underlined phrase “a building block” in paragraph 5 mean?A．A basic part.B．A detailed map.C．A building material.D．A major obstacle.【答案】A【解析】词句猜测题。
新课标高考英语阅读理解猜测词意(词义)解题策略(附带答案)
新课标高考英语阅读理解猜测词意（词义）解题策略高考考情分析解读：词义猜测题是高考阅读理解题中的一种常见的题型。
词义猜测可以是对一个单词的意义推断，也可以是对一个短语或一个句子的意义推断，既可以是生词生义，也可以是熟词新义，还可以是对替代词所替代内容的判断。
通过对近年新课标全国卷分析统计来看，词义猜测题一般有1－2题。
考查相对比较稳定，但难度略有增加，需要在复杂的句式中通过上下文综合分析才能得出答案。
在词义猜测题中，所考查的词或短语的意义往往不停留在字面上，要根据短文提供的语境，通过阅读上下文，根据已知的信息或常识来推测尚不熟悉的词或词组的含义。
2016年全国卷设问形式例子：(1)What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean？(2016年课标全国卷Ⅱ)(2)What does the underline phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3 mean？(2016年课标全国卷Ⅲ)(3)What does the word “contributions” in the la st paragraph refer to？(2015年课标全国卷Ⅰ)常见的命题形式有：The underlined word in the second paragraph means “________”．Which of the following words is closest in meaning to the underlined word in the last paragraph?The underlined word “________” in Paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “________”．What does the phrase “________”in Paragraph 1 mean?本学案结构：代词指代猜测题目句子猜测句意题目附：典故谚语知识储备单词或短语意思猜测题该题型着重考查考生根据上下文猜测词义的能力，这也是一个从“已知”得出“未知”的过程，即利用上下文的已知部分(尤其是该词或短语前后的句子)进行推理，有时还需要依靠常识和经验来猜测词义。

高考英语词义猜测题解题技巧与练习做阅读理解，最怕遇到生词，不仅影响文章的理解，也会拖慢阅读速度，而在阅读理解当中，生词又是不可防止的，如何解决呢？Part1：知识点讲解类属法即通过类属来推测词义。
如：Bananas,oranges,pineapples,coconutsandsomeotherkindsoffruitgrowinwarmareas.说明：从句意我们知道pineapples和coconuts与bananas,oranges是同类事物，同属水果(准确地说是“菠萝〞和“椰子〞)。
推理法即根据文章的前后语境推出生词的词义。
如：Thatmuseumissoimmensethatitwillbeimpossibletoseealltheexhibitsinoneday.说明：既然一天之内看不完所有的展品，那么immense的意思应该是“很大〞了。
Everyoneagreedthatthewomaninthephotowasgorgeous.Itwaseasytoseewhyshehadwonthebeautycontest.说明：既然“她在选美比赛中获胜〞，说明她“很美丽〞(gorgeous)。
列举法即通过对文章所列举的事物来猜测生词的词义。
如：Childrenlikesuchcreaturesasdogsandmonkeys.说明：像dogs和monkeys之类的“creatures，〞显然creatures的意思应是“动物〞。
Inyoursparetime,youmaylookthroughanyoftheseperiodicals:TimeMagazine,NewsWeek,orTheNewWorker.说明：periodical是生词，但根据其后所列举的例子，我们可以推测出它的意思可能是“期刊〞或“杂志〞。
■构词法即根据前缀、后缀、复合、派生等构词知识判断生词的词义。
如：Overworkmaycausediseases.说明：前缀over-的意思是“过分的，过量的〞，故overwork的意思应为“工作过度〞。
■Therewasadissatisfiedlookint hemanager’seyes.说明：satisfied的意思是“满意的〞，前缀dis-的意思是“不〞，故dissatisfied的意思应该是“不满意的〞。
比照法即根据文章前后的比照关系确定生词的词义。
如：Hehadbeengettingbetter,butduringthenighthisconditiondeteriorated.说明：句中的but说明deteriorate应该与getbetter的意思相反，即“恶化〞。
Inmanycountriestherearetwofinancialextremes,frompenurytogreatwealth.说明：上文说两个经济上的极端，那么下文中penury应与greatwealth相对，即表示“贫困〞。
isloquaciouswhileherhusbandisthesilenttype.说明：while表比照，意为“而〞，所以loquacious应是silent的反义，即“多嘴的〞。
Ifyouagree,drawacircle;andacrossifyoudissent.说明：既然画圈表示同意，那么画叉便是“不同意〞(dissent)。
同位法同位语是对所修饰词语的进一步说明和解释，假设对所修饰的词语不熟悉，可通过其后同位语的“说明或解释〞来确定其词义。
如：Hisfatherisanexpertinphonetics,thestudyofthesoundsoflanguage.说明：同位语thestudyofthesoundsoflanguage表示phonetics的意思应该是“语音学〞。
Jeanwasbornwithspinabifida,abirthillnessthatdamagesthespine(脊骨).说明：同位语abirthillnessthatdamagesthespine说明了spinabifida 是一种病，一种对脊骨有损害的病。
释义法即根据文章中所提供的释义关系来确定生词的词义。
如：Theydescribedhimasaloon,oramadman.说明：句中的or是对loon的解释，即loon与amadman同义，即表示“疯子〞。
Itwillbeveryhardbutalsoverybrittle,thatis,itwillbreakeasily.说明：句中的thatis说明itwillbreak easily是对brittle的解释，从而猜测出其意为■“脆〞。
Theherdsman,wholooksaftersheep,earnsabout500yuanayear.说明：定语从句wholooksaftersheep说明herdsman的词义为“牧人〞。
Therearethreekindsofsnow.Onekindisafluffysnowthatissomewhatdryandfeathery?说明：定语从句thatissomewhatdryandfeathery(有点儿干、像羽毛似的)说明fluffysnow 的意思可能是“鹅毛大雪〞。
常识法即根据普通常识推测生词的词义。
如：It’ssaidthatlGatesBilisthemostaffluentpersonintheworld.说明：根据常识，BillGates 为世界首富，所以affluent可能是“富有的〞Asascientist,Edisonisveryfamousforhiscontrivances.说明：根据常识，Edison为创造大王，他应因“创造〞而闻名于世。
