答案
新考法1 多义词
该片段中除选项中设置的一词多义词外,片段中的make (到达;达到)也是常考的多义词。针对多义词,复习时应关注其多个义项中的生僻义, 通过语境记忆理解。
答案与解析
1.①D 此处指女子国家队联络人一开始并不看好Douglas,认为她不具备成为奥运会选手的资质。此处是词块have what it takes “具备(成功)所需要的一切条件(或素质、能力等)”。view “看待;观看”; appear “呈现;出现”; matter 为熟词生义,意为 “要紧;事关紧要”; take 为多义词,意为“需要,要求”, 其他常见词义有: 携带;拿走;取走;运走;拿;抱;握;取;接;夺取;攻占;抓获;控制;吃;喝;服(药)。
②A 由上文“I’m going to inspire so many people”和下文的“shine she did”可知, Douglas认为自己将会激励很多人,她准备好出类拔萃了。fly “飞翔;飞行;驾驶;疾驰”; dance “跳舞;雀跃”; score “得分”, 其他考过的生义有:编总谱;评分;获得胜利。shine为多义词,在本题中意为“出色;出类拔萃”; 其他常见词义有:发光;反光;照耀;把……照向;使……光投向;擦亮;擦光。
新考法2 词类活用
针对词类活用,首先应从其充当的句子成分入手,准确判断其词性,然后根据语境,确定其准确含义。
答案与解析
2.B 根据语境及空后的“our dogs together”可知,作者和史蒂夫在一起遛狗。故选B。walk常用作名词,在此为动词,意为“牵着(动物)走;遛”; tie “系”; bathe “沐浴”; feed “喂养”。
3.C 由下文的“The three dogs formed a pack ”,“Steve and I formed a good team”和“We made good housemates. ”可知,作者和史蒂夫以及两人的宠物相处融洽,由此可知,一切都好。故选C。 fine常见词性为形容词,意为“好的”, 在此为副词,意为“令人满意地”。free常见词性为形容词,意为“自由的;免费的;空闲的”, 在此为副词,意为“免费地;脱离束缚地”。
新考法3 派生/合成词——拆词解意
拆词解意 除①小题选项中设置的合成词treetop外,该片段中的合成词还有: south-east “东南方的”, hand-carved =hand+carve+-d “手工雕刻的”, beekeeper= bee+keep+-er “养蜂人”, grassland=grass+land “草地”。
答案与解析
4.①C 由下文的“Reaching them to get the honey is difficult”和“got close to the hive which was around 20 metres above the ground”可推知, 蜂箱离地面很高,应该是挂在树梢上。 合成词tree+top=treetop (树梢)。
②B 正因为蜂箱挂在树梢上,所以拿到蜂箱很危险,空处与and前的difficult 呼应。 urgent “紧急的”; dangerous “危险的”; expensive “昂贵的”; pointless “无意义的” [point (意义)+-less (无)=pointless (无意义的)]。
③A 经过不断攀爬和移动绳索,养蜂人最终到达了离地面约20米高的蜂箱。 finally “最终;终于”; surprisingly “令人惊讶地”; naturally “顺理成章地;自然地”; immediately “立刻”。
新考法4 熟词生义
解题思路 根据上文可知,作者喜欢在法国旅游,但如果挑选长住的地方,意大利更胜一筹。settle为多义词,既可表示“解决”,又可表示“定居,安顿;(使)平静下来”。
参考答案 D
新考法5 生僻词汇细归纳
解题思路 根据上文描述的作者与年轻人的交谈和下文的with locals from all walks of life可知,此处表示和各行各业的当地人打交道,应用短语engage with表示“与……建立密切关系”。cooperate合作;side支持;negotiate协商。 对于学生而言,这四个词含义较为生僻,较难选出正确答案。
