同位语 Semantics, the study of the meaning of words, is necessary if you are to speak and read intelligently.
此例逗号中短语意为对词意义进行研究的学科。该短语与前面生词semantics是同位关系,因此我们不难猜出semantics指语义学。
Capacitance, or the ability to store electric charge, is one of the most common characteristics of electronic circuits.
由同位语我们很快猜出生词capacitance词义---电容量。
考生们需要注意的是:同位语前还常有or, similarly, that is to say, in other words, namely, or other, say i. e. 等副词或短语出现。
定语从句 Krabacber suffers from SAD, which is short for seasonal affective disorder, a syndrome characterized by severe seasonal mood swings.
根据生词SAD后面定语从句which is short for seasonal affective disorder和同位语a syndrome characterized by severe seasonal mood swings, 我们可以推断出 SAD含义,即季节性情绪紊乱症。
又如原文:The dominant idea, raised by 64% of the pupils, was that rainforests provide animals with habitats. 对于dominant 词义的猜测可以通过后面复述的64% 猜出,为:多数的,起到控制作用的。
3. 根据举例猜测词义
恰当的举例能够提供猜测生词的重要线索,例如:The consequences of epochal events such as wars and great scientific discoveries are not confined to a small geographical area as they were in the past.
