阅读在考研[微博]英语中占分比重最大，历届的考生都格外重视。现在来看我们的复习时间还有很多，但是按计划英语一定要在基础阶段就打好坚实的基础，尤其是阅读理解真题的复习。那如何，充分利用好阅读真题呢？老师建议大家在基础阶段不仅要重点分析真题文章，还需要重视训练规范的解题思路，掌握不同题型解题的技巧。今天我们来介绍猜词题的几种解题技巧。
方法一：利用例子归纳
As a result, the modern world is increasingly populated by intelligent gizmos whose presence we barely notice but whose universal existence has removed much human labor. Our factories hum to the rhythm of robot assembly arms. Our banking is done at automated teller terminals that thank us with mechanical politeness for the transaction. Our subway trains are controlled by tireless robot-drivers. And thanks to the continual miniaturization of electronics and micro-mechanics, there are already robot systems that can perform some kinds of brain and bone surgery with submillimeter accuracy—far greater precision than highly skilled physicians can achieve with their hands alone。
27. The word “gizmos” (Line 1, Paragraph 2) most probably means _______.
[A] programs [B] experts [C] devices [D] creatures
这篇文章让我们猜测gizmos含义，通过后文2、3、4句的举例内容可以看出robot arms, automated teller terminals, robot-drivers这些全是机器装置，所以推测gizmos应该是“装置，设备”的含义，选择[C] devices。利用举例内容推测词义是很重要的一个猜词方法，表示举例的短语有：for example、for instance、such as、as、like等。
方法二：利用同义词
People in earlier eras were surrounded by reminders of misery. They worked until exhausted, lived with few protections and died young. In the West, before mass communication and literacy, the most powerful mass medium was the church, which reminded worshippers that their souls were in danger and that they would someday be meat for worms. Given all this, they did not exactly need their art to be a bummer too。
37. The word “bummer” most probably means something ______。
[A] religious [B] unpleasant [C] entertaining [D] commercial
这篇文章让我们猜测bummer的含义，可以发现其后有一个信号词too，说明前文出现过和bummer类似的词。追溯前文可以看出前文主要是在讲People in earlier eras were surrounded by reminders of misery。核心概念为misery，所以bummer的含义即等于misery，所以选择[B] unpleasant。很多时候，让我们猜测的词义会在前文或后文出现一个同类含义的词，所以大家一定要注意句间关系。
方法三：利用反义信息
The townsfolk don’t see it this way and local council does not contribute directly to the subsidy of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Stratford cries poor traditionally. Nevertheless every hotel in town seems to be adding a new wing or cocktail lounge. Hilton is building its own hotel there, which you may be sure will be decorated with Hamlet Hamburger Bars, the Lear Lounge, the Banquo Banqueting Room, and so forth, and will be very expensive。
28. By saying “Stratford cries poor traditionally”， the author implies that_____。
[A] Stratford cannot afford the expansion projects
[B] Stratford has long been in financial difficulties
[C] the town is not really short of money
[D] the townsfolk used to be poorly paid
文章让我们猜测Stratford cries poor traditionally这个短句的含义，根据后文连接词Nevertheless推出前文与后文之间是一种反义关系，而后文一直在讲各种新设施的增加，and will be very expensive，由此可以断定后文强调的是“昂贵”，所以前文的poor应该是[C] the town is not really short of money。有时候，让我们猜测的词义或句意会与前文或后文构成一定的逻辑关系，我们根据这个逻辑关系的正反向就可以推出词句的含义。
熟练掌握词汇题的解题技巧，切实提高阅读理解的能力，才能最终取得不错的成绩。老师建议考生在基础阶段做好1996-2004年的考研英语真题，掌握做题方法，强化正确的做题思路。预祝大家：复习顺利，梦想成真！
