阅读理解第5讲猜测词义的技巧这类题要求考生利用已知信息，根据某个生词或习惯用语在文章的上下文中寻找线索来猜测其词义。通常情况下，出题者故意出那些超纲单词或词组，但考生通过上下文完全可以推测出其含义。这要求考生在平时的阅读中养成良好的习惯，熟练掌握构词法，遇到生词时不要急于查字典，尽量通过文章语境来推测其意思。出题形式一般为：1.Theword/phrase“···”mostprobablymeans.2.Theword/phrase“···”canbereplacedby.我们通常可以用以下方法去推断、猜测词义：1.根据生活常识、构词法或上下文判断词义。如：ThedoorissolowthatIhitmyheadonthelintel.可猜出lintel为“门梁”之意。2.通过转折、因果关系，或同义词、反义词的关系猜测词义。如：Heissohomely，notatallashandsomeashisbrother.根据notatall···handsome我们不难推测出homely的意思是“不英俊、不漂亮”。我们通常可以用以下方法去推断、猜测词义：3.通过定义或句法功能来推测词义。如:Butsometimes，norainfallsforalong，longtime.Thenthereisadryperiod，ordrought.我们通过“or”及句子结构可看出，drought一词是用来解释“adryperiod”，意为“干旱”。例(2009·湖北卷)A篇MygrandfathercamefromHungaryandwastheonlyoneinhisfamilywhosettleddownintheUnitedStates.TherestofhisfamilyremainedinEurope.WhenWorldWarIbrokeout,heseemedtohavebecomeanotherman,downhearted.Suchobviouschangewasnotbornoutofconcernforhiswelfare,butoutoffear:ifhisonlyson,myuncle,hadtogotowar,itwouldbecousinfightingagainstcousin.例(2009·湖北卷)A篇Onedayin1918,myUncleMiltonreceivedhisdraftnotice.Mygrandparentswereveryupset.Butmymother,attheageof10,feltontopoftheworldabouthersoldierbrothergoingofftowar.Realizinghowhewasregardedbyhislittlesisterandallofherfriends,myuncleboughtthemallservicepins,whichmeantthattheyhadalovedoneintheservice.Allthelittlegirlsweredelighted.例(2009·湖北卷)A篇Themomentcamewhenmyuncleandtheothersoldiers,withoutanytrainingbutallinuniforms,boardedthetrain.Thebandplayedandthecrowdcheered.Althoughnoonenoticed,I’msuremygrandmotherhadatearinhereyefortheonlyson.Thetrainslowlypulledout,butnotaboutathousandyardswhenitsuddenlypaused.Everyonestaredinwonderasthetrainslowlyreturnedtothestation.Therewasadeadsilencebeforethedoorsopenedandthemenstartedtostepout.Someoneshouted,“Thewarisover!”Foramoment,nobodymoved,butthenthepeopleheardsomeonebarkordersatthesoldiers.Themenlinedupintwolines,walkeddownthesteps,andwiththebandplaying,marcheddownthestreet,asreturningheroes,tobewelcomedhome.Mymothersaiditwasagreatday,butshewasjustalittledisappointedthatitdidn’tlastatinybitlonger.()Whatdidthe“servicepins”(inPara.2)standforintheeyesofthelittlegirls?A.Strength.B.Courage.C.Victory.D.Honor.词义猜测题。根据下文whichmeantthattheyhadalovedoneintheservice.Allthelittlegirlsweredelighted.可知这是令人感到自豪的东西，故servicepins代指honor。剖析感谢观赏！
