感情色彩
即判断单词的正面/负面色彩。
如:Australians have been turning to al-ternative therapies in increasing numbersover the past 20 years。
该题为判断题,在原文中可以找到相对应的句子为 Disenchantment with orthodox medicine has seen the popularity of alternative therapies in Australia climb steadily during the past 20 years。大多数考生普遍不认识disenchantment,但通过该词前缀dis-,可以推断出其感情色彩应为负面;相对应的是popularity为正面感情色彩,因此可以推断出原文该句理解为在过去20年澳大利亚alternative therapies越来越受欢迎,而orthodox medicine越来越受冷落,所以该题为True。并且,从中可以推测出 alternative therapies与 orthodox medicine为一对相反词,alternative为选择性,借助整句句义,可以推测出orthodox为传统性,这对之后其他题型的解题帮助甚大。考试大的美女编辑们
又如:In the past,Australians had a high-er opinion of doctors than they do today。
该题同样为判断题,原文相对应句子为The high standing of professionals, including doctors, has been eroded as a consequence. 这句中consequence意为不好的结果,是负面单词,因此推断出erode也为负面单词,那么这句句义就可以理解为医生的地位现在结果不好。所以,答案为True。
