ents__who__had__a__different__style__of__thinking.第二步对比信息词与选项,找出符合题干要求的选项尝试解答____B____[答题技巧]1.识别题干关键(1)Theunderlinedword...probablymeans_
___________.(2)Whichofthefollowingisclosestinmeaningtotheunderlinedword...?2.“文中信息”巧利用(1)同义或定义解释法。上下文中以某种方式对其进行解释,如利用or,thatis(tosay),inotherw
ords,namely等词语进行解释,或利用破折号、同位语(从句)、定语从句等进行解释。(2)因果推断法。对生词词义的猜测需要结合上下文的因果关系进行。(3)前后对比法。上下文中往往对生词提供一定的对比背景,并且通常以反义
或对照的方式出现,以此可推测生词意思。(4)语境理解法。生词词义的推测大多根据语境进行,做题时要根据上下文语境信息进行分析、推理,从而猜测出生词的意义。(5)基本构词法。根据前缀、后缀、合成及词性转换猜测词义。题型2猜测短

deep.第二步对比信息词与选项,找出符合题干要求的选项尝试解答____B____[答题技巧]1.识别题干关键(1)Theunderlinedphrase...couldbereplacedby____________.(2)Wha
tdoestheunderlinedphrase...referto?2.“语境分析”猜短语短语猜测题是一个从“已知”得出“未知”的题型,即利用该短语前后的已知部分进行推理判断。首先注意分析短语的意思,然后结合具体语境去推测短语的含义更有利于问题的解决。3.明
晰干扰选项特征短语猜测题的干扰项一般是以下几种情况:(1)短语的字面意思;(2)文中出现的与猜测无关的内容;(3)命题人凭空杜撰的内容。题型3猜测指代类[示例](2017·全国卷Ⅰ,C)Despitethecelebra
