雅思阅读猜词技巧:
1.定义猜词。即在该词后面有用冒号或者破折号,进行进一步解释说明的。比如......this is rather like placing atextbook on a wet sponge: the weight squeezes the water out, causing both waterand sponge to settle lower. 通过冒号后的解释sponge的意思就更为清楚了。
2.词根词缀法猜词。(关于词根词缀我会下面的博文中详细讲)
比如pre-表示前,领先的意思,那么prewar就是战前的意思。。。掌握一些常用的词根词缀对于扩大词汇量很有用处。
3.根据context,即上下文的意思来猜。
4.根据common sense猜,当然,同学要记住,不能用common sense 来做T/F/NG的题,这是雅思阅读的大忌。
5.还有,有的词如果不影响你的阅读,那么就不要去管他什么意思了。做雅思阅读,Time islimited.一定要好好控制自己的时间。关于时间分配我也会在下面的博文中详细讲。
