* 词义猜测题 * … I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of _it_. … * 58. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to a poem by ______. A. the father B. the author C. William Blake D. Edgar Allan Poe 58. D　词义推测题。考查上下文中代词的指代。根据第三段中的I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it.可知，作者在见到这第二首诗时 “也”打印出来了。这就是Edgar Allan Poe写的诗。故选D。 思路点拨 猜词是英语阅读的重要技巧，也是高考中常考的题型。考生要学会“顺藤摸瓜”，通过构词、定义、对比、因果、联想、上下文等线索(各种已知信息)确定词义。要求猜测词义的词一般为实词(动词、名词、形容词等)。就方法来说，主要根据上下文线索和构词法。高考阅读文章中更侧重前者。 Ⅰ. 根据定义猜测词义 通过定义、定语从句/词组或同位语从句/词组等来确定词义。 1. 直接定义：如果生词是句子或段落所解释的定义，理解句子或段落本身就是推断词义。 例句：In slang the term jam constitutes a state of being in which a person finds himself or herself in a difficult situation. 分析：根据上下文的定义可知jam一词在俚语中的意思是“困境”。 定义句的谓语动词多为：be, mean, deal with, be considered, to be, refer to, be called, be known as, define, represent等。 2. 同位语：构成同位关系的两部分之间多用逗号连接，有时也使用破折号、冒号、分号、引号和括号等。需要注意的是：同位语前还常有or, similarly, that is to say, in other words, namely, or other, say, i．e. 等副词或短语出现。 3. 定语从句：定语从句有时起着解释和说明的作用，据此我们可以推断出所修饰词的含义。 例句：The herdsman,_who looks after sheep, earns about 650 yuan a year. 分析：定语从句中 looks after sheep 就表明了 herdsman 的词义为“牧羊人”。 【基础练习】 62．The underlined word “burning” in Para. 3 probably means ______. A. annoyed B. ashamed C. ready D. eager D　我不知道发生了什么，所以在我发言后，希望知道为什么大家如此反应的原因，即eager to find out what I had done wrong。 Ⅱ. 根据逻辑关系猜测词义 1. 根据对比关系猜测词义 在一个句子或段落中，有时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来猜测其词义。英语中表示对比关系的词汇和短语主要是unlike, no
