　　在初步掌握英语语法之后,考生面临的突出困难就是词汇的用法问题。完形填空、阅读理解、英译汉和写作都和考生的词汇量、词汇知识和用词造句的能力密切相关。因此,词汇是考生复习的重点之一。考生在做本章练习时,要注意以下几点:

　　(一)词汇的搭配:动词与介词:accuse sb. of sth.(控告……犯有……); object to sth. or doing sth.;动词与副词:take sth. seriously(重视)；形容词与名词:common flo

wers;形容词与介词:superior to;介词与形容词或名词所构成的固定搭配:in brief(简短地)、on one's own(独自地;独立地)、in relation to (关系到);动词与名词构成的成语:take pains(尽力,煞费苦心),等。

　　(二)易混淆词的区别:considerate(体贴人的)--considerable(相当大的);respectful(充满敬意的)--respectable (品格高尚的)--respective(各自的)--respected(尊敬的);snatch(攫取)--scratch(抓挠);alone(单独)--lonely(孤独的)等。

　　(三)近义词的辨异:damage -- break -- destroy -- ruin; wound -- injure -- hurt; deliberately -- on purpose; comply with -- conform to; agree -- consent -- approve等。

　　(四)习语的含义和用法:without question (二话不说地)--beyond question(毫无疑问)--out of the question (不可能); in brief(简短地;总之)--in short (总之); first of all (首先)--above all (最重要的); on the other hand(另一方面)--on the contrary (相反); not to speak of (更不用说)--to say nothing of(更谈不上)--not to mention--let alone--much less等。

　　(五)参照注释、深入理解:编者往往通过注释来告诉考生关于题目的症结和解题的思路,同时指出与题目有关的语言知识和注意事项等。因此,考生必须在理解题意的基础上领会注释的要领、反复背记,才能达到由此及彼、由表及里、举一反三、触类旁通的目的。

　　例1.测试名词:

　　Too much to Xrays can cause skin burns, cancer or other damage to the body.

　　A man has to make for his old age by putting aside enough money to live on when old.

　　A. supply　B. assurance　C. provision　D. adjustment

　　应选C. provision。make provision for sth.(为未来的好事或坏事)作好准备。

　　注意：为提高试题难度，近年试题经常测试"动词+名词+介词……"的固定惯用搭配。

　　When travelling, you are advised to take travellers' checks, which provide a secure to carrying your money in cash.

　　A. substitute　B. selection　C. preference　D. alternative

　　应选D. alternative。alternative n.二者之中的另一个选择。substitute n.代用品。selection作不可数名词用，意为"选择，挑选，淘汰"；作可数名词用，意为"选集，供选择物"。preference宁愿，优先选择。可见，所给的选择项为易混淆词。本题强调相对于携带现金来说的一种可靠选择，故应选D. alternative。

　　注意：易混淆词是研究生考试词汇试题选择项中经常遇到的。考生在应试准备时要随手查阅英汉双解辞典，一方面注意词的确切含义，另一方面注意词的搭配关系。

　　A of the long report by the budget committee was submitted to the mayor for approval.

　　A. shorthand　B. scheme　C. schedule　D. sketch

　　应选D. sketch。sketch要点，概要。注意：本题测试形似易混淆词。例2.测试动词:

　　注意：研究生入学试题经常测试动词的一些常用搭配，考生在复习词汇时，除了应注意词的第一词义外，还应背记词的其他词义，其范围应以词汇总表所给词义为准。

　　注意：从上述两题中可以看出，近两年的完形填空试题对考生近义词的辨别能力提出了很高的要求。因此考生应试准备时既要重视词的确切词义，又要注意其搭配关系。

　　To survive in the intense trade competition between countries, we must the qualities and varieties of products we make to the worldmarket demand.

　　A. improve　B. enhance　C. guarantee　D. gear
