第四节 词汇考试中的解题思路及对策

语言中词汇，犹如建造摩天大楼的砖瓦，是构成语言的基础。掌握好这一部分不仅有利于做好词汇试题，也对答好全套试卷中的其它试题起着至关重要的作用，当然，对于能否学好一门语言，词汇的重要性自是不言而喻。但是，掌握词汇乃至它们的用法并非一日之功，需要日积月累，方能见效。

一、优选法

词汇试题中都有一些题型无需仔细研读或分析就能直接选出正确答案，比如说熟悉的词语，固定搭配词语，习语等。考试中遇到这类题型时，只需找到题干中的信息词语，即能快速、准确地选定答案。如

(1). The students _________ to the new environment shortly after they came to the university.
A. adopted B. adapted C. suited D. regulated
【答案】B

【解析】在该题中，只要看题干中有哪一个动词能和介词to搭配，就能顺利地选出正确答案了。除了选项B之外，意为“使 … 适应”，A的意思是“采纳，收养”；C倒是符合题意，但它是个及物动词，其后不能用介词；选项D的意思为“调节，校准”，均与题意不合。

(2). With his funny performance, Charlie Chaplin __________ the Little Tramp successfully in the film.
A. discovered B. invented C. made D. created
【答案】B

【解析】这四个选项意思较为接近，但属于一种习惯表达法。

(3). Facing the present economic depression, he kept worrying about the future, not knowing what was to __________him.
A. become of B. become to C. become with D. happen
【答案】A

【解析】这是一个固定搭配的用法。其中become of 和happen都有“降临, 遭遇”之意，但happen之后要用介词to才行，B 、C两个备选项只是为了迷惑考生而设计的干扰项。

二、排除法

当不能一眼选出正确答案时，可根据题干句子的意思来分析各选项，按照句子结构的需要或其它信息排除干扰选项，从而提高答题的准确率，能排除的选项越多，准确率就越高。如：

(1). The soldier found ________ a hero when he returned to his hometown and was greeted with warm welcome.
A. himself something of B. himself something about C. himself anything of D. himself nothing of
【答案】A

【解析】在以上备选项中，something of表示“有几分”；nothing of表示“丝毫没有”；anything of只用于疑问句中。故可首先排除B和C，又根据句子意思表达的是一种肯定意义，因而A项是正确答案。

(2). I have announced on many occasions that I will proceed with my goal, _______________.
A. however difficult may it be B. however it may be difficult C. how difficult it may be D. however difficult it may be

【答案】D
【解析】从题干分析，要求完成的部分是一个让步状语从句，应该使用陈述语序。四个选项中A 的语序不对，B结构不正确，可先排除这两项。再把C、D两项进行比较，可按however adj/adv的句式结构得知C项缺少了其词的强调式，故正确答案惟有D。

(3). __________ everything his fiends had done for him, he refused to help them and so they were very disappointed in him.
A. In return of B. In spite of C. Because of D. As a result of
【答案】B

【解析】本题的四个选项按其语法结构都可以，是复合介词 名词的形式，然而从题干语义上“尽管他朋友事事都帮他，然而他却不帮朋友，因而大家对他都失望了”分析，则首先可以排除C 、D两项，剩下的A项表示“回报”之义，惟有B项符合题义。
