笔者前面已经提到,考研英语侧重考查词的深度。但是很多考生往往只关注单词在字典上的前几个意思,而对其他意思视而不见。每次考试过后,总有考生反映考研英语中的单词难,其实考研英语试卷中的难词不是难在那些生僻、复杂的单词上,而往往是难在熟词僻义上。以单词address为例,这个单词考生再熟悉不过了,但是大多数考生只知道address有地址的意思,而下面这两道考研英语真题考查的却是该词的熟词僻义。
例1:If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and itll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairmans notorious bad taste in ties.
参考译文:如果你是听你讲话的群体中的一员,你就能够了解你们所共有的经历和问题,就可以对食堂难以下咽的食物或者主席选择领带的糟糕品味进行评论。
这里的address作动词,指的是speak to,向讲话。
例2:Boston Globe reporter Chris Reidy notes that the situation will improve only when there are comprehensive programs that address the many needs of the homeless.
