三看习惯用法:固定搭配
Its effect was worldwide and it left more than 2,000 people dead and
caused over eight billion pounds 53 of damage.
此处考的是worth这个词的特殊用法。它本是一个形容词,但可用?worth of sth, 来表明价值某物的某东西。
III.总结
选择填空考的是猜测词义的能力,其核心在于通过各种线索来确定词性和意义,从而实现成功匹配。解题方法也相应产生。
先通过词的后缀等对选项进行合理的分类,分不出的可先模糊处理。
再通过文章逐一确定空格所需要的词性和意义。它需要看句子中此词所处的位置,它的周边环境。
有时甚至需要跳出此句,看前文或后文。如指代词/句间连词告诉我们要向前寻找;而段首的抽象表达可能要从下文找到钥匙。
