运用方法探究中学到的技巧，快来一试身手吧！看谁做得又快又好！

A

I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. As a doctor, mother and

scientist in child development I believe there i s nothing to recommend it, from the baby’s point of view.

Mothers, doctors and nurses alike have no idea of where a baby’s blood sugar level All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily

annoyed. In this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. The baby asks

for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth.

It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a

baby satisfied. The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was Dr.

Frederic Truby King who was against feeding in the night. I’ve never heard anything so

follow a timetable set by the mum. What is important is ridiculous. Baby feeding shouldn’t

feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks.

Well, at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points

out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. The research finds out that babies who are fed on

demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By

the age of 8, their IQ（智商）scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid

timetable. This research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample（样本）of

10,419 children born in the early 1990s,taking account of parental education, family income, a

health and feeling style. These results don’t surprise me.

sex and age, the mother’s

child’s

Feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no

account of sinking blood sugar levels.

I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeling practices.

小题1:What does the author think about Dr King?

A．He is strict

B．He is unkind

C．He has the wrong idea.

D．He sets a timetable for mothers

小题2:The word copper-bottomed in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________

A．basic B．reliable C．surprising D．interesting

小题3:What does the research tell us about feeling a baby on demand?

A．The baby will sleep well.

B．The baby will have its brain harmed.

C．The baby will have a low blood sugar level.

D．The baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8.

小题4:The author supports feeling the baby_______.

A．in the night

B．every four hours

C．whenever it wants food

D．according to its blood sugar level

B

For high school leavers starting out in the working world，it is very important to learn

particular skills and practice how to behave in an interview or how to find all internship(实习).

In some countries，schools have programs to help students onto the path to work. In the Unites

States，however，such programs are still few and far between.

Research shows that if high schools provide career-related courses，students are likely to

get higher earnings in later years. The students are more likely to stay in school，graduate and

go on to higher education.

In Germany，students as young as 13 and 14 are expected to do internships. German

companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the education they need for

future employment.

But in America, education reform programs focus on how well students do in exams

instead of bringing them into contact with the working world. Harvard Education school

professor Robert

Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates directly on

most

the four-year college track. Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the country’s

vulnerable(易受影响的)kids with no jobs and no skills.

Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education

while also teaching them valuable practical skills at high sch001. James Madison High School

in New York，for example，encourages students to choose classes on career—based courses.

The school then helps them gain on—the-job experience in those fields while they’re still at high school.

However, even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work，the job

market is daunting. In the US，unemployment rates for 16-to 19-year-olds are above 20 percent

for the third summer in a row.

“The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the Summer job experience，they become part of

this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job，”said Michael，a researcher in the US.

小题1:According to Robert Schwartz，_________.

A．there is no need for kids to go for higher education in the US

B．students should get contact with the working world at high school

C．education reform should focus on students’performance in exams

D．teenagers in the US can’t miss out on the summer job experience

小题2:What’s the main idea of the text?

A．Arguments about recent US education reform.

B．Tips on finding jobs for high school leavers.

C．The lack of career-based courses in US high schools.

D．Advice for American high school leavers.

小题3:The underlined word “daunting”in Paragraph 5 most probably means___________.

A．discouraging B．interesting C．creative D．unbearable

解题指导

在词义猜测题中，有些词汇并非生词，只需要根据上下文去推测它应在文章中的具体含

义，或找出其指代对象。做这类题，应仔细阅读出现该词的上下文，文章中往往会对这

类词或短语进行重复解释或概括归纳。因此答案往往可从文章中找出或推测出。

〖猜测词义第一招〗利用上下文语境线索

任何一篇文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。

〖第二招〗利用定义和解释性线索

阅读文中的有些生词尤其是新闻报导及科普类文章中的生词，往往在其后有对该词进行

解释说明性的短语或句子，如to be, that is, mean, stand for, namely, to refer to, to mean, in other words等，有时也以同位语、定语从句的形式出现，或用破折号、括弧来表示。留

心阅读就可以断定它们的意思。

〖第三招〗根据逻辑关系进行判断。英语中句与句之间在语意上往往存在一些逻辑关系，

如因果、对比、并列、转折关系等。

等连词体现。

因果关系的语境，通常由because, so ,therefore, so that, so / such… that…　〖第四招〗利用对比线索

有时文章作者为了增强表达效果，会用一对反义词揭示事物的不同点，形成鲜明的对比，这时只要把握其中的一词，就不难推出另一词的含义，这时句中多见unlike; although; but; yet; while; on the contrary; on the other hand; for one thing; for another; instead of; rather

than等信息词。

〖第五招〗利用同义线索和同等关系

同义词替换可以为我们推测词义提供明显的语境线索。一些常见的引出同义词的标志性

词语有or, like, similarly等。同等关系是指一个词、一组词或短语在句中作同一成分，

而且他们的词义属一范畴。只要我们认识其中一个或几个词或短语，即可确定同等关系

中生词的词性，作用和大概意思。

〖第六招〗利用例证性线索

某些冷僻的词汇后会举一个例子，使词汇具体易懂。such as, like, for example, for instance等连接性词语往往用来列举说明前面较难理解的名词。

〖第七招〗根据构词法

阅读中常会遇到一些由所熟悉的单词派生或合成的新词，可利用构词法知识来推测其

意思。《教学大纲》已经明确地将构词法列在语法附表中，因此利用所学构词法生成的

词不应被认定为生词。

〖第八招〗注意熟词生义

英语中大量的词汇具有多义性，其含义并非完全等同于词典所标注的汉语意思，具体的词义需要在一定的上下文中体现出来。阅读理解中的熟悉词生义比生词本身的障碍要大

得多。原因有三：其一，高考对生词的数量有量的规定，不得超过3%；其二，熟悉词生义很容易引起考生的误解；其三，熟悉词生义的数量没有限制。如果这种现象在一篇

文章中出现得多，那就更难理解了。

〖第九招〗根据常识或经验猜测词义

在阅读中碰到生词时，我们有时可以运用逻辑推理能力、自身的生活经验及生活常识去

推断生词的含义。当然也要结合语境。

〖第十招〗

根据词性转化，猜测它在语境中的词义

第一篇

小题1:C小题2:B小题3:D小题4:C

试题分析：本文典型的议论文，论点是反对定期喂养婴儿。论据：一是我们不知道婴儿

的血糖的情况。二是文中例举了定期喂养的害处。三是实验表明，按需喂养比定期喂养

的孩子更聪明。结论:希望结束定期喂养的习惯。

小题1:细节理解题。根据I"ve never heard anything so ridiculous. wrong idea和ridiculous “荒谬的”两者属于同义重现，故选C。

小题2:词义猜测题。basic基本的；reliable可靠的；surprising吃惊的；interesting有趣的。根据第四和第五段的实验结果的具体描述可知，故选B。

小题3:细节理解题。根据The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7 , 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By the age of 8, their IQ（智商）scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. wiser

更加聪明的，故选D。

小题4:细节理解题。根据I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. whenever it wants food什么时候需要就喂孩子，故选C。

点评：本段主要考查细节题。细节题通常采用词语和句型转换的形式来取代原文中的表

述，命题者在出这类题时惯用“偷梁换柱、张冠李戴”的手法来迷惑考生，所以正确理

解题干和信息句的意义是关键。

第二篇小题1:B小题2:C小题3:A

试题分析：文章主要介绍了通过与德国的中学的情况的比较，来说明在美国中学里，还

是很缺乏有关职业生涯的基本课程。

小题1:考查细节理解题。根据第六段的even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work，the job market is daunting 看出答案是 B

小题2:考查主旨大意题。文章第一段的In some countries，schools have programs to help students onto the path to work．In the Unites States，however，such programs are still few and far between 点出了主题，选C。

小题3:考查词义猜测题。从下文的In the US，unemployment rates for 16-to 19-year-olds are above 20 percent for the third summer in a row．可猜出词义是discouraging。选A。

It's more likely that none of us start a conversation because it's awkward and challenging, or we think it's annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it's an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits. Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can't forget that deep relationships wouldn't even exist if it weren't for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease (润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. "Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk," he explains. "The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them." In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. "It's not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband," says Dunn. "But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also." Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense

第五讲词义猜测类专项练习 【分类真题】 (2019年全国卷II.A） My Favourite Books Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series（系列）of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads. Matilda Roald Dahl I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel parents and the bossy headmistress, Miss Trunchbull，are equally fumy and frightening, but they're also aspirational. After Dark Haruki Murakami It’s about two sisters —Eri, a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping, and Mari, a young student. In trying to connect to her sister, Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse "night people" who are hiding secrets. Gone Girl Gillian Flynn There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did, but the horror story is brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable. The Stand Stephen King This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those left. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever. 21. Who does "I" refer to in the text? A. Stephen King. B. Gillian Flynn. C. Jo Usmar. D. Roald Dahl.

2020五大方法巧解高考英语词义猜测题

五大方法巧解高考英语词义猜测题 根据上下文推断单词和短语的含义是高考阅读理解题6大出题方向之一，也是考查考生英语语言能力和文化品格的一种重要方式。 词义猜测题可以针对单词、短语的意思进行命题考查，还可以针对某一句子的准确理解 或代词的精确指代进行设题。除了直接考查单词或短语词义猜测外，在阅读理解文章中，总会有一些单词或短语超出了《考试大纲》词汇表的范围，但又没有附加注释，也需要考生猜测，这也是对词义猜测的一种间接考查。 近三年词义猜测题考查频次一览表 2017年2016年2015年 全国卷Ⅰ2（代词that；短语the water catcher） 1(单词courier) 1（单词contributions） 全国卷Ⅱ2（代词that；句子the tables are turned） 2(单词downside;代词 it) 1（短语signed off） 全国卷Ⅲ1（单词displaced） 2（代词them；短语 a pipe dream） / 近几年高考词义猜测题在数量上保持稳定，每套试卷中直接考查词义猜测的试题不超过 2道。但试卷中阅读理解部分生词量略有扩大，试题难度稍有增加。例如在2017年全国卷Ⅰ阅读理解中，有部分超纲单词（如unifying, emotion和insight)给出了汉语注释，另外一部分超纲词汇(如recontextualization)却没有附加注释。这些单词既不在《考试大纲》规定的词 汇表内，又未加注释，这就意味着考生不仅仅需要完成试题中直接的词义猜测题，还需要凭借自己的知识积累和学习能力猜测出未加注生词的词义，这样才能透彻地理解文章，完成阅读理解任务。 词义猜测题考查的范围主要在以下几个方面：生词、短语、熟词生义、句子和代词的指代。 常见的设问形式主要有以下几种： What does the underlined word "..." in Paragraph...refer to? What does the underlined phrase "..." in Paragraph...refer to? What does the underlined word "..." in Paragraph...mean? What does the author mean by "..." in Paragraph...? Which of the following can replace the underlined word "..." in Paragraph...? 无论是直接的词义猜测题，还是阅读中需要理解不认识的生词，我们都可以利用构词法、逻辑关系、语法关系、生活常识、文化背景和上下文语境等方法来猜出单词或短语的意思。预 计2018年此题型题量将会保持稳定，命题重点仍然是考查生词/短语的意思、熟词生义或代词的指代含义。

高考英语阅读理解猜测词义题解题方法

高考英语阅读理解猜测词义题解题方法 对于高考生而言，英语词汇量还是很有限的，想要完全通读高考英语试卷，还要会猜测词义。 猜测词义时，一般可利用以下四个方面的线索： 一是针对性的解释 针对性解释是作者为了更好的表达思想，在文章中对一些重要的概念、难懂的术语或高深的词汇等所做的通俗化的解释。这些解释提供的信息明确具体，所使用的语言通俗易懂，利用它们来猜测词义就非常简单。 1.根据定义（definition）猜测词义 如果生词有一个句子（定语从句或是同位语同位语前常有 or, similarly, that is to say, in other words, namely, or other, say, i.g. 等或是同位语从句）或段落来定义,或使用破折号，冒号，分号后的内容和引号括号中的内容加以解释和定义，那么理解这个句子或段落本身就是推断词义。定义常用的谓语动词多为：be, mean, deal with, be considered, to be, be called, define, represent, refer to, signify 等。 例1.Do you know what a “territory” is ? A territory is an area that an animal ,usually

the male, claims（声称）as its own.（2005年湖北卷） [分析]由定义可推知，这里territory指的是：“动物的地盘”。 例2.In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today．（2005年浙江卷） [分析]由同位语an endangered wild cat我们很快猜出生词ocelots的义域：一种濒临灭绝野猫。 例3. Here is The Pines ,whose cook has developed a special way of mixing foreign food such as caribou ,wild boar ,and reindeer with surprising sauces . （2004年福建卷） According to the passage ,The Pines is a . A．place in which you can see many mobile homes B．mountain where you can get a good view of the valley C．town which happens to be near the Banff National Park D．restaurant
