       第九章 如何猜测词义(二)


  四. 利用文中的反义词猜测词义。

  表示对比的词有but, while, however, otherwise 等。
  1.American businessmen expect employees to be punctual. They do not expect that the workers will come late.
  文中be punctual.的意思, 可理解为not come late, 即"准时, 不迟到"。
  2.Unlike her gregarious sister, Jane is a shy person, who does not like to go to parties, or to make new friends.
  根据文中Unlike的意思, shy person, who does not like to go to parties, or to make new friends.应该表达了"gregarious"相反的意思, 所以gregarious的意思为"好交际的"。
  3.A vegetarian does not want meat, but may rate the utility of banana very highly, while a meat-eater may prefer steak.
  句中vegetarian通过while与meat-eater对比, 可猜为“吃素者”。
  4.Most of them agreed; however, John dissented.
  dissented通过however与agreed对比, "反对"。
  5.I try hard not to make serious mistakes, but inevitably I slip up.
  slip up通过but与make serious mistakes对比, 可猜为"犯小错误"。
  6.Jane was talking with others while Bliza remained reticent all the time.
  根据while的提示, 前后对照, reticent的含义是"沉默寡言"。
  7.All of these ideas about the communication of the future are fantasies, to be sure, but many of them are fantasies that are very likely to become realities.
  fantasies与realities意义相反, 可猜测其词义为"幻想"。
  8.104 studies, involving 15,000 people is proving that optimism can help you to be happier, healthier and more successful. Pessimism leads, by contrast, to hopelessness, sickness and failure, and is linked to depression, loneliness and painful shyness.
  optimism"乐观主义"与Pessimism意义相反, 可猜Pessimism之意为"悲观主义"。
   五. 利用同义词, 近义词或词组。
  1.Should the government regulate the cost of resources such as oil and gas? Some people do not believe that government control is the solution to the problem of the rising cost of fuel.
