提到托福考試詞匯,，很多高中生頭疼不已,。每天在緊張的學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)之外拼了命的背誦，結(jié)果第二天背熟的單詞也已經(jīng),，最重要的是記住的單詞也做不對(duì),，為什么會(huì)這樣？心好累,。,。。因?yàn)槟悴恢烙行C(jī),。
今天帶大家認(rèn)清托福詞匯“真面目”,。
?
一、面如桃花心似刀（詞根詞綴）
?Paragraph 5: They seemed to be using the Sun as a compass to determine direction. At the time, this idea seemed preposterous. How could a bird navigate by the Sun when some of us lose our way with road maps? Obviously, more testing was in order.
4. The word “preposterous” in the passage is closest in meaning to
○ unbelievable
○ inadequate
○ limited
○ creative
分 析：本道題目的單詞對(duì)于大多數(shù)同學(xué)都是陌生的,，根據(jù)常規(guī)思維,，學(xué)生容易根據(jù)前綴“pre”去推測(cè)該單詞會(huì)有往前的意思，但其實(shí)在該單詞里卻失去了常見(jiàn)詞根 詞綴的意思,，表示”荒謬的,；難以置信的”，因此正確答案為跟向前毫無(wú)關(guān)聯(lián)的A選項(xiàng),。記住詞根詞綴只是包括大多數(shù)單詞,，也有例外哦。
二,、上下關(guān)聯(lián)容易錯(cuò)（上下文推測(cè)）
Paragraph 5: In all but the remotest regions of the empire, Roman pottery of a high standard is common at the sites of humble villages and isolated farmsteads.
11.The word “humble” in the passage is closest in meaning to
O ? ?rural
O ? ?distant
O ? ?ancient
O ? ?modest
分 析：該單詞對(duì)于學(xué)生來(lái)講,，難度系數(shù)不如上題高。有不少同學(xué)認(rèn)識(shí)humble,，知道其常用義為“謙虛”,，也注意到只有D選項(xiàng)是謙虛的意思。但是帶入原文會(huì)發(fā) 現(xiàn)修飾對(duì)象為villiages,，覺(jué)得修飾不通,，根據(jù)上下文推測(cè)應(yīng)與isolated并列同義，因此會(huì)誤選A或者B選項(xiàng),。這樣就中了ETS的圈套了,，因?yàn)?humble及modest還有“中小型”的意思,。
三、玫瑰月季分不清（意思過(guò)于接近,，同義詞）
Paragraph 2: The source of Roman obsession with unity and cohesion may well have lain in the pattern of Rome’s early development. Whereas Greece had grown from scores of scattered cities, Rome grew from one single organism.
3. The phrase “obsession with” in the passage is closest in meaning to
○thinking about
○fixation on
○interest in
○attitude toward
分 析：絕大多數(shù)同學(xué)對(duì)于該單詞并不陌生,，不就是“著迷”唄，答案就是C唄,。同學(xué),，等等，問(wèn)題沒(méi)你想的那么簡(jiǎn)單,。C選項(xiàng)表示“感興趣”,，與“著迷”意思一樣 么？還不懂是吧,？比如,，你對(duì)于自拍很感興趣能等同于你對(duì)于自拍難以自拔么，顯然不是一個(gè)段位,。一個(gè)還在窺探,，一個(gè)已經(jīng)難以自拔。重新瀏覽選項(xiàng),，A：考 慮,；B：專注；C：對(duì),。,。。,。,。。的態(tài)度,。答案就不言而喻了,。因此千萬(wàn)不能粗心，尤其對(duì)于意思非常接近的選項(xiàng),。此外,，要保證選項(xiàng)全部要瀏覽。
通過(guò)以上分析,，相信大家已經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)到托福單詞不僅是體力的競(jìng)爭(zhēng),，更是與ETS的腦力的博弈。做對(duì)單詞題的關(guān)鍵只有一個(gè),，你對(duì)于這個(gè)單詞足夠熟,！
