最后几天,记住单词应是考生不二的选择。但单词的重点和难点又在何方呢?请参考以下冲关秘籍。

■由汉语的“DE”引起的错误。

例如:France is a________(欧洲)country.

He flies to America on business________(频繁).

He found himself looking forward more and more________(热切) to the holiday at home.

答案:European,frequently,eagerly

问题提示:De的省略在汉语中也许无关紧要,但在做单词拼写时,有了它就一目了然。既要考虑汉语,更要结合句子分析成分———是定语,还是状语,是表语,还是其他。

■由一个汉语词汇对应多个英语单词引起的错误。

例如:Could you____(可能)get the important job without your hard work?

His suggestion sounded a good idea,but it was not_____.(实际)

He is my____(经常) customer.He often comes to buy some daily necessities.

答案:possibly,practical/realistic,regular

问题提示:《三字经》云:“性相近,习相远。”汉语的意思相近,但英语的含义却有云泥之别。背单词要注意表象更要注意内涵。

■由一个英语词汇对应多个汉语意义引起的错误。

例如:Generally speaking,every car has a___(备用)tyre.

The meeting was__(发言) by a famous university professor.

In China,the bicycle is a popular____(工具) of transportation.

答案:spare,addressed,means

问题提示:所有的第一总是印象深刻,因此每个单词的第一个汉语意思总是让人没齿难忘。但第二个,第三个呢?不妨从最后的背起。不要忘了,纲内每个单词的每重意思都是考点。

上面的三个问题是确定单词的问题,而下面的则是在知道单词的情况下,如何写出其正确的形式。

■由名词的词尾变化不当,导致的错误。

例如:Your room is full of______(家具).

Please read the______(说明书)carefully before using it.

The doctor advised him to take more______(体育锻炼)

答案:furniture,directions/instructions,exercise

问题提示:名词的单复数可由前面的修饰词或谓语的单复决定。问题是一些名词不可数,而有些名词又必用复数。现在关心名词的词尾变化,就等于关心自己的未来。下列单词会用了吗?

不可数名词:advice,baggage,luggage,progress,traffic,furniture,information,equipment,energy,fun,music,technology,wealth,weather,change(零钱),experience(经验),exercise(锻炼),work(工作)

■由动词的词尾变化不当,导致的错误。

例如:While he was in Beijing University,he______(喜欢)light music to rock music.

The________(溺水)child screamed for help desperately.

C___the world to a stage,he successfully made the students understand him meaning.

答案:preferred,drowning,Comparing

问题提示:动词的变化在汉语里不曾出现,对此类新生事物不可儿戏,动词的时态和语态,第三人称更是不可忘记。上考场之前看看课本最后的动词的不规则变化,不仅仅是为了单词拼写,更是为了写作。作文中若出现此类错误,岂不大煞风景。

■不同词性同根词的词尾变化,导致错误。

例如:Now there are more and more______(毕业生) finding it hard to seek employment.

He walked____(直接) to the classroom,with a book in his hand.

His___(解释) can’t hold water.

答案:graduates,straight/directly,explanation

问题提示:他们之间的变化是有规律的,但规律是相对的,命题人也许更青睐于那些特殊的。它包括形容词和副词的变化,动词和名词之间的转化。

■由固定搭配造成的错误。

例如:The beauty of my hometown is____description.

On___(一般来说),Americans have more bathrooms than any other people in the world.

Harry Potter is well___(欢迎)in China.

答案:beyond,average,received

问题提示:既然是固定搭配,只有死记硬背了。

最后提示:你容易错的就是高考的难点,如对于一些仅靠发音不能拼写出的单词,特别是一些双写的,非重读音节中元音字母,以及一些不发音的字母,要高度警惕。对常用的一些偏长的词汇,如:月份、节日、星期、数词等更要牢记。

■练习:

You’ll need a____(特殊) tool to do that.

Shelley calmed her down with some______(困难).

Even now some universities are ____(紧缺) off for English teachers.
