命制的閱讀理解試題中經(jīng)常有要求考生對詞語和句子作出解釋的題目。兩者都主要側(cè)重于考查考生通過上下文去判斷詞義、句意的能力。詞義題的考查有兩種:一是超綱詞含義的推斷,另一個是熟詞僻義或是在特定場合的意思。其命題模式如下:??
1. What does the underlined word "..."mean?
2. The underlined phrase (word, sentence) "..." most probably means ___________.??
3. The phrase (word, sentence) suggests ___________.
4. From the passage, we can infer that the word "..." is ___________.??
