03阅读之词义猜测题(二) 备战2022中考英语总复习
一:知识梳理讲解
题型特点
这类题型旨在考查学生利用上下文对词、词组以及句子的辨别能力。利用上下文猜测词义是阅读理解的基本技巧之一,也是我们学习词汇的主要方法。
在阅读过程中,有些同学一遇到生僻词语就求 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )助词典,这是不可取的。一遇到生僻词语就查阅词典不但会使我们养成依赖词典的习惯,而且还会影响阅读速度。我们阅读汉语文章时遇到不认识的词语是否都查词典呢 答案是否定的。可是我们如何理解它们呢 利用上下文提示猜测词义就是诀窍。
词义猜测题的类型主要有三种:熟词 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )新义要求学生在某一特定的语言环境中推断某一多义词的正确意思;生词释义要求学生根据范围较小的上下文推断出词义;难句释义要求学生根据范围稍大的上下文推断句意。
猜测题(指代题)的提问形式主要有:
①What’s the meaning of the underlined word/ phrase...in Chinese
②The underlined word...refers to/ probably means...
③The underlined word...could be replaced by...
④What is the meaning of...
⑤Which of the following words can take the place of the word...
二:阅读词义猜测题答题技巧
1:根据转折、因果关系猜测词义
通过因果关系猜词,首先是 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )找出生词与上下文之间的逻辑关系,然后才能猜词。有时文章借助关联词(如because, as, since, for, so, thus, as a result, of course, therefore等等)表示前因后果。例如:
You shouldn't h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave blamed him for that, for it wasn't his fault.通过for引出的句子所表示的原因(那不是他的错),可猜出blame的词义是“责备”。
2:通过同义词和反义词的关系猜词
通过同义词猜词,一是要看由and或o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r连接的同义词词组,如happy and gay,即使我们不认识gay这个词,也可以知道它是愉快的意思;二是看在进一步解释的过程中使用的同义词,如Man has known something about the planets Venus, Mars, and Jupiter with the help of spaceships.此句中的Venus(金星)、Mars( 火星)、Jupiter(木星)均为生词,但只要知道planets就可猜出这几个词都属于“行星”这一义域。通过反义词猜词,一是看表转折关系的连词或副词,如but,while,however等;二是看与not搭配的或表示否定意义的词语,如:He is so homely, not at all as handsome as his brother.根据not at all...handsome我们不难推测出homely的意思,即“不好看的、不漂亮的”意思。
3:利用单词的发音进行推测
英语中有些单词来自汉语,与汉语的发 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )音有些相似,另外也有一些单词译成汉语时采用音译,如:sofa(沙发),coffee(咖啡),typhoon(台风),aspirin(阿司匹林),nylon(尼龙)等。因此,利用单词的发音也是一种猜测的手段。
例 The Olympic Games began in the 5th century BC.
One day it was reveal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed that Mrs Morel had cancer and was beyond any help except that of morphine.2-1-c-n-j-y
解析 上面这两个句子中画线的两个词,只要我们能准确发音,就能知道它们的意思是“奥林匹克”和“吗啡”。
4:通过定义或释义关系来推测词义
例如:But someti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mes, no rain falls for a long, long time. Then there is a dry period, or drought.从drought所在句子的上文我们得知很久不下雨,于是便有一段干旱的时期,即drought,由此可见drought意思为“久旱”,“旱灾”。而a dry period和drought是同义语。这种同义或释义关系常由is, or, that is, in other words ,be called或破折号等来表示。
A bag is useful and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the word “bag” is useful. It gives us some interesting phrases (短语). One is “ to let the cat out of the bag”. It is the same as “to tell a secret”….
Now when someon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e lets out (泄漏) a secret, he “lets the cat out of the bag.”
John “lets the cat out of the bag” means he ______.
A. makes everyone know a secret B. the woman bought a cat
C. buys a cat in the bag D. sells the cat in the bag
解析:根据Now when someon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e lets out (泄漏) a secret, he “lets the cat out of the bag.可知答案选A
三:例题分析
A
Many people know ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Shanghai's beautiful night view (景色), especially the colorful lights from the buildings. Light helps us see and makes the environment more beautiful. However, too much light becomes a kind of pollution but many of us pay little attention to this pollution or even ignore it. In fact, it causes a lot of problems. Light pollution can be almost as bad as carbon dioxide pollution.
Too much light can do ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )harm to our health. First, it can make us feel bad and we can't sleep well. Second, lights need electricity, and creating electricity will give off greenhouse gases. This affects the air and causes breathing problems. Third, study shows people living under bright light for long can have cancer more easily.Too much light may be even harmful to wild animals. Thousands of birds die from it each year. Some hit into the light buildings, because they can't see clearly in the strong light. Some birds sometimes lose their ways in the bright light. Sea turtles (海龟) can't find the dark beaches to lay their eggs.
To protect hu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mans and wildlife, we should take measures to reduce the use of lights at night.
1:The underlined word "ignore" means ___ in Chinese.
A.熟悉 B.忽视 C.消除 D.防治
B
The program has ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost. Frost says,“What is interesting to me is the children’s reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention.” Frost thinks kids don’t find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.
1.The underlined word “they” refers to    .
A.kids B.old ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er people C.smart machines D.program developers

As the host city ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of the next Winter Games, Beijing held a wonderful eight — minute show at the closing ceremony of the 2018 PyeongChang (韩国平昌) Winter Olympics on Sunday, sending a warm invitation to the whole world.
The show was direc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ted by Zhang Yimou, a famous Chinese director who was also responsible for the eight — minute summer handover (交接) in Athens in 2004 as well as the opening and closing ceremonies in Beijing in 2008 that had a big success in the world.
Unlike Athens whi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ch focused on showing Chinese history with traditional culture like red lantern and jasmine (茉莉花), “Beijing 8 Minutes” gave special importance to the Chinese people’s sincere welcome to the world by using modern technology.
Leading the team ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) were two dancers in costumes of panda puppets that are the world’s largest but the lightest at the same time, each weighing only about 10 kilograms. To reduce the pressure on the two dancers, researchers had tried hundreds of different materials until ending up with high — technology ones.
During the w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hole performance, the dancers and robots both wore LED lights on them that could be fit for the cold weather at PyeongChang Olympic Stadium without the risks of breaking.
The costumes were ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )also made with a kind of special material to keep the dancers warm. Performers danced with 24 intelligent robots — standing for Beijing hosting the 24th Winter Olympics. They showed scenes of sports such as skating and skiing.
Pictures were ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )projected to the icy floor while dancers skated across it, making a sense of augmented reality (增强现实). A number of moving screens in the middle of the field were also controlled by artificial intelligence(人工智能).

Huawei is firing bac ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k against the US-led campaign(运动、战役) to push it out of major markets, insisting it’s still on track to lead the world in the introduction of 5G technology.
Despite effor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts in markets creating fear for Huawei, using politics to interfere(干预) with growth, customers continue to trust us and continue to work with us and build networks with our technologies, Deputy Chairman(副董事长) Ken Hu told reporters in the Chinese city of Dongguan on Tuesday.21世纪教育网版权所有

Its chief financial officer Ms. Wanzhou Meng is under irrational arrest(不合理的逮捕) in Canada, facing possible extradition(引渡) to the United States, and its products are coming under increasing scrutiny from businesses and governments over security(安全) concerns.
Despite decision ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s this year by Australia and New Zealand to stop wireless operators(无线设备) from using Huawei to build their 5G networks, Hu expressed confidence that the company’s technology is “significantly more advanced”than that of its rivals(对手), giving it a head start of 12 to 18 months and the ability to attract new customers.21*cnjy*com

Whether from news r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eports or social media articles, you may know that 5G is coming.
5G is the 5t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h generation network. It is a new network after 1G, 2G, 3G and 4G. It can connect everyone and everything together. 5G networks will cover many cities in China soon. 5G means super-fast data speed. One can download a two-hour movie for fewer than 10 seconds, and it is making our lives more and more convenient.2·1·c·n·j·y
5G will make ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )self-driving cars possible. For safety, self-driving cars need super-fast data transmission (传输)to communicate with their nearby environment. 5G is just what makes self-driving cars achieve this. Even airplanes will become “smart” in the near future. Passengers will be able to use 5G networks in the air to connect to the Internet and can order for food and drinks.21·世纪*教育网
5G will be a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) big help for students who take online classes. Many people live in poor areas in the world where there are no schools. But with 5G, this will change.

The facts li ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sted above are only a part of what 5G will make possible and popular. Just as in the early days of the Internet in the 1990s, few could see how it could change our life and the world. The same will surely be true of 5G.

Live-streaming ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(直播) has become very popular in China. Viewers can interact (互动) with hosts by messaging them, buying them gifts, or sending them tips.
However, some ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) children are spending too much money on live-stream platforms. Earlier this year, a 17-year-old boy in Jingmen, sent tips that added up to 150,000 yuan to a host. That sum of money was his parents’ life savings.
To prevent things li ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ke this from happening again, the National Radio and Television Administration introduced a new regulation (规定) on Nov. 23 to better manage live-streaming services.
The regulation bans ch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ildren from tipping or sending gifts to live-stream hosts and performers. It also requires people to register (注册) on live-streaming sites with their real names.
This new regulati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )on has been welcomed by parents. According to Legal Daily, about one-fifth of live-stream viewers in 2019 were children.
“Online shows ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and live-streaming have become so popular. I always feel worried that my son might become addicted to (沉迷于) them or do something that is harmful to his growth,” said Wang Haifeng, a mother of a 15-year-old boy in Beijing. “Stricter management makes me feel safer.”
In addition, t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )here are some other measures to help manage live-streaming services. For example, live-streaming platforms will be required to put a limit on how much money people can send to live-streamers. Once the limit is reached, viewers will not be able to send gifts or tips.
Other regulations ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) include stopping live-streaming platforms from encouraging viewers to send gifts or tips. Any host who is found doing this will be added to blacklist, China Daily reported.

While the start ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some students at White Cloud Primary School. They became the world’s first kids to be“taught”by an electronic teacher. This electronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom. Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears, when needed, on students’ computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.
Created by tech ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nology company Smart Machines. Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught by human teachers.
Just like human teac ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the students’ questions and opinions about the topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students’ physical actions. For example, if a student smiles at Bill, he responds by smiling back. This two-way exchange helps get the students’ attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bill’s behavior and knowledge base when needed.
The program h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )as been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost. Frost says,“What is interesting to me is the children’s reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention.” Frost thinks kids don’t find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.
It is doubtful, howev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er, that human educators will lose their jobs to Bill any time soon. For one, this talking head’s knowledge base is not large. More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can’t guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily. Bill’s future might be as a“personal tutor”, providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.21教育网

通过同义词猜词,一是要看由 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and或or连接的同义词词组,如happy and gay,即使我们不认识gay这个词,也可以知道它是愉快的意思;二是看在进一步解释的过程中使用的同义词,如Man has known something about the planets Venus, Mars, and Jupiter with the help of spaceships.此句中的Venus(金星)、Mars( 火星)、Jupiter(木星)均为生词,但只要知道planets就可猜出这几个词都属于“行星”这一义域。通过反义词猜词,一是看表转折关系的连词或副词,如but,while,however等;二是看与not搭配的或表示否定意义的词语,如:He is so homely, not at all as handsome as his brother.根据not at all...handsome我们不难推测出homely的意思,即“不好看的、不漂亮的”意思。
3:利用单词的发音进行推测
英语中有些单词来自汉语,与汉 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )语的发音有些相似,另外也有一些单词译成汉语时采用音译,如:sofa(沙发),coffee(咖啡),typhoon(台风),aspirin(阿司匹林),nylon(尼龙)等。因此,利用单词的发音也是一种猜测的手段。

Some hit into the light buildings, because they can't see clearly in the strong light. Some birds sometimes lose their ways in the bright light. Sea turtles (海龟) can't find the dark beaches to lay their eggs.
To protect humans an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d wildlife, we should take measures to reduce the use of lights at night.
1:The underlined word "ignore" means ___ in Chinese.
A.熟悉 B.忽视 C.消除 D.防治
答案:B

While the star ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some students at White Cloud Primary School. They became the world’s first kids to be“taught”by an electronic teacher. This electronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom. Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears, when needed, on students’ computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.
Created by technolog ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y company Smart Machines. Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught by human teachers.
Just like hu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )man teachers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the students’ questions and opinions about the topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students’ physical actions. For example, if a student smiles at Bill, he responds by smiling back. This two-way exchange helps get the students’ attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bill’s behavior and knowledge base when needed.
The program ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost. Frost says,“What is interesting to me is the children’s reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention.” Frost thinks kids don’t find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.
It is doubtful, howeve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r, that human educators will lose their jobs to Bill any time soon. For one, this talking head’s knowledge base is not large. More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can’t guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily. Bill’s future might be as a“personal tutor”, providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.
1.What is Bill
A.A human-like robot.
B.A kind of computer game.
C.A computer recording tool.
D.A computer-created talking head.
2.How does the two-way exchange help the program developers
A.It lets them correct students’ mistakes.
B.It allows Bill to respond more quickly.
C.It helps them know how to improve Bill.
D.It helps them study students’ body language.
3.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refers to    .21教育网
A.kids B.older people
C.smart machines D.program developers
4.What is Bill NOT good at doing
A.Attracting students’ attention.
B.Understanding body language.
C.Responding to students’ questions.
D.Dealing with unexpected situations.
5.How might Bill b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e used in the future according to the last paragraph
A.To work as human classroom teachers.
B.To encourage students’ interest in computers.
C.To give students personal help with different subjects.
D.To watch over the behavior of the students in the classroom.
