阅读是无限的。阅读内容的千变万化使得阅读学习不可能完全依靠词典来逐个认知生词的含义。因此,在无法以构词法知识来猜测生词时,还可以根据不同文章的上下文关系来猜测不断遇到的生词。
1)利用上下文线索的同义(近义)关系和反义关系(Synonymy and Antonymy)。
(1)Their friends laughed at them,and the sisters felt wretched,very unhappy.One of them even cried and sobbed.
从例句中very unhappy和cried得知被人嘲笑的姐妹们感到不幸哭了起来。由此可推断是因为她们感到痛苦(felt wretched),才会有人抽噎(sobbed)。
(2)In the northern regions the winters are generally cold and humid,and the summers hot and dry.
从例句中冬夏两季的气候反差来看,cold的反义为hot,那么humid的反义为dry。因而不难推测hum id为潮湿的含义。
2)利用上下文线索的对比关系(comparison)和矛盾关系(contradiction)。
(1)Some people who are very intelligent and successful in their fields find it difficult to succeed in language learning.Conversely, some people who are successful language learners find it difficult to succeed in other fields.
通过句中两个由some people...引起的句子内容的不同结局对比,可以推测conversely为相反地。
