阅读题考查单词在文章上下文中的最接近的含义,一起来看下面这个例子。
43 It is not also likely, then, that certain space relations, rhythms, and stresses have psy-
44 chological significance, that some of these patterns are universal and the key to emotional
45 response, that their deviations and modifications can be meaningful to artists in terms of their
46 own life experiences and that these overtones are grasped by spectators without conscious
47 analysis?......
Q1: As used in line 43, stresses most nearly means
emphases loads anxieties influences sounds
Q2: As used in line 46, grasped most nearly means
adhered to seized on controlled held understood
解析:
1、如果注意平时的积累,此题应属信手拈来。在英语课上,对于一个发音的重读不就是stress吗?再考虑下stress在文章中出现的位置处于rhythms之后,必然就是emphases之意,不可能是引申意anxieties了。
2、Grasp本意为抓住,引申义为理解。在上下文中,grasp后有without conscious analysis,analysis一词说明这里的grasp必然不是肢体语言,而是主观上的理解。答案昭然若揭,选E。
通过以上两题可见:阅读文中的长难句可能在考场有限的时间里无法吃透,但词汇含义题完全可以依据局部的精读做出。这类题目要求考生不光知道该词的本意和引申义,还要能具体问题具体分析。
