中考英語詞義猜測題解題技巧
詞義猜測題是指在閱讀過程中根據對語篇的信息、邏輯、背景知識及語言結構等的綜合理解去猜測或推斷某一生詞、難詞、關鍵詞的意義。其常見的提問方式有：1. the word “…” means ___ in chinese.
2. which of the following is the closest in meaning to ____?
3. the word “…” could best be replaced by ______.
4. in para2, the underlined word/ sentence “…” means/ refers to _____.
解答這類題目的常見技巧：
1. 通過語境猜測詞義。通過文章主題和上下文的邏輯關系，來推測出生詞或句子的含義。
要求詞不離句，句不離篇。從對兩種事物或現象進行對比的描述中，推斷出詞義來。
2. 根據定義猜測詞義。定義的形式通常有：用一個句子或段落給生詞定義，使用破折號、冒號后面的內容或引號、括號中的內容對生詞加以解釋或定義。
3. 通過經驗及生活常識猜測詞義。在閱讀文章的基礎上利用自己對日常生活的理解和判斷來完成對單詞的猜測。例如：
the famous fat and lazy cat garfield is coming to china. in the “garfield the movie”, garfield acts with real actors. he will make you laugh with clever and funny words. sometimes he’s not friendly to his ower john arbuckle. one day, john brings odie, a dog, into his home. odie is cute. he gets all john’s love. this turns garfield’s world upside down. garfield wants the dog out of the house and his life. one night, he kicks odie out of the house. but later garfield finds a tv star caught odie! the man wants to use the dog in his shows. garfield feels sorry for odie. he thinks he’s wrong. he wants to make up for it. so garfield gets off his favorite chair to try to save his friend.
what does “make up” mean in this passage?
a. 看笑話 b. 彌補 c. 哭泣 d. 詢問 答案是b。這是通過整篇語境來猜測詞義。由題意可知：garfield 對odie的到來感到很討厭，于是在一個晚上garfield把odie踢出了房間，可后來garfield認識到了自己的錯誤，由“garfield feels sorry for odie. he thinks he’s wrong.”可以看出。由最后一句話中的“try to save his friend”可以看出：他這樣做的目的是為了彌補自己的錯誤。所以本題應該選b。
