雅思閱讀熟詞多義題解析

 英語中純粹的單義詞很少,絕大多數詞都是多義詞,即壹個詞項有兩個或兩個以上的意義。在雅思閱讀中,有很多詞匯看似很簡單,很熟悉,殊不知他有多個意思。把小夥伴們都迷得暈頭轉向的。今天我來為大家收集整理了雅思閱讀熟詞多義題解析,希望小夥伴們在雅思考試時能提高警惕,不再犯迷糊!

  以下主要就雅思閱讀劍橋真題部分的壹些存在熟詞多義的題目進行解析:

1.drive

 C4T1P1:

 In other words, they gave no indication of an appreciation of either the range of ways in which rainforests are important or the complex social, economic and political factors which drive the activities which are destroying the rainforests.

 這是壹個復雜的長難句,壹***出現了三處定語從句,壹處ways in which, 壹處factors which,壹處activities which。

 drive的主語為連接代詞which代指的先行詞factors,提取之後變為factors drive the activities, 這裏如果將這裏作為動詞的drive 翻譯成駕駛,句子是完成不通順的,我們從後壹處的定語從句中得知,activities指的是破壞雨林的行為,也就是前面的社會經濟和政治因素drive了壹些破壞雨林的行為,也就是說,這裏的drive是導致,迫使的意思。

 C6T1P2

 選項型SUMMARY

 Q24: Manufacturers of computers, for instance, are able to import 24................. from overseas, rather than having to rely on a local supplier.

 文章E段 To see how this influences trade, consider the business of making disk drives for computers. Most of the world's disk-drive manufacturing is concentrated in South-east Asia. This is possible only because disk drives, while valuable, are small and light and so cost little to ship. Computer manufacturers in Japan or Texas will not face hugely bigger freight bills if they import drives from Singapore rather than purchasing them on the domestic market.

 通過manufacturers of computers定位到E段。閱讀後我們可以知道電腦制造商集中在東南亞制造和進口disk drives而不是本國市場。如果同學對電腦知識比較了解的話,對於drive在這裏的理解應該問題不大。根據壹定的語法知識我們看得出這裏的disk drives和disk-drive是名詞用法,可通過drive的基本含義?駕駛?進壹步引申理解,?駕駛磁盤?過渡為?讓磁盤啟動?,正確的理解含義為:磁盤驅動器。對應到題目提供的選項?B. components?

2.subject

 我們知道它由?科目?的意思,詞匯稍好的同學還會知道它還有?主語?和?主題?的含義。我們來看下面壹題:

 C5T1P2

 單選題 Q20 The teacher-subjects were told that they were testing whether

 A a 450-volt shock was dangerous.

 B punishment helps learning.

 C the pupils were honest.

 D they were suited to teaching.

 文章A段 Specifically, Milgram told each volunteer 'teacher-subject' that the experiment was in the noble cause of education, and was designed to test whether or not punishing pupils for their mistakes would have a positive effect on the pupils' ability to learn.

 文章這裏的'teacher-subject'打了引號,也就是說即便同學妳不認識,把它當作壹個特殊詞符號,不理解不影響做題。不過明顯的是,把?科目?主語?主題?放這裏,都不好理解。在雅思閱讀學術實驗類的文章中,subject是個高頻詞匯,作為?實驗對象?的含義來使用, 有時會同義替換為volunteer或participant。

 C8T1P3

 表格填空Q38 The results were then subjected to a 38.

 文章:In 1987, results from hundreds of autoganzfeld tests were studied by Honorton in a 'meta-analysis', a statistical technique for finding the overall results from a set of studies.

 通過冠詞a我們可以知道此空填名詞單數,並且從表格縱軸同行的特殊定位詞in 1987,我們找到了定位句。但是定位句中存在冠詞a的三處,到底三處後的單詞填哪個呢。單詞不會,語法來湊,通過題目和文章的主幹結構的壹致性:A be subjected to B和A be studied By B in C, 由於Honorton是人名且不符合填詞規定,順理成章的'meta-analysis'成為我們的選填對象。那subject to到底什麽意思呢,通過文章,我們可以知道大概是被研究的意思,查了字典我們就了解,正確含義為?受?支配?。

  類似的用法單詞還有:

 1. state n. (美國的)州,狀態,政府,adj. 國家的,國立的 v.陳述,說明

 C8T4P1 判斷題Q8 Private schools in Japan are more modern and spacious than state-run lower secondary schools. State-run adj國立的

 C7T4P1 第5段 There was a huge initial force- five times larger than the steady state force, Gharib says. State n.狀態

 2. coin n. 硬幣, v. 創造,鑄造

 C7T1P1 E段 The American zoologist Donald Griffin, who was largely responsible for the discovery of sonar in bats, coined the term 'echolocation' to cover both sonar and radar, whether used by animals or by human instruments. Coin v 創造(first used)

 3. spoke v. speak過去式,n 車輪的輻條(C4T1P3)

 4. tuitionn. 學費,課程,講授,教學(C4T1P1)

 5. complaint n. 抱怨,抗議,疾病(C4T2P2)

 6. Interest v. 是感興趣n. 興趣,利益,利息(C4T3P1)

 7. leaves v. leave的動詞三單形式 n.葉子(Pl)(C8T4P3)

 8. press v. 按壓,n. 印刷,新聞工作者,新聞(C5T1P3/C5T4P2)

 (pressing adj. 迫切的,急切的 C7T1P2)
