語法填空
專題訓練（二）巧用派生詞，做好完形填空
技巧點撥：
動詞前后、形容詞前后可有副詞，這時，如果所給詞為形容詞，則需將其變為副詞。如果所給詞為名詞或動詞，可先將其變為形容詞，再加后綴-ly。另外，在答題時還要考慮副詞級的變化。名詞前面一般可有形容詞修飾語,連系動詞后接形容詞作表語。如果所需詞為形容詞時,還要考慮形容詞級的變化。如：
(1)The little girl is
extremely (extreme）eager to know the result of the exam.
(2)Your composition is
badly (bad)organized. Please do your writing exercise
more attentively (attend)next time.
(3)What，s the
longest
(length)river in the world?
(4)The
stronger
(strength)we become, the more modest we should be.
(5)He was very tired after doing this for a whole day, but he felt very happy since the crop did “grow” higher (height).
常用形容詞、副詞后綴
形容詞+ly—副詞 careful carefully
名詞+ful—形容詞 hope hopeful
名詞+y—形容詞 luck lucky
名詞+ous—形容詞 mountain mountainous
名詞+al/ial—形容詞 emotion emotional
動詞+able/(s)ible—形容詞 forgettable forget
access accessile
動詞+tive—形容詞 attract attractive

money to pay for his petrol.I asked the money collector,“How much
10
is he?”She told me he had meant to put ＄ 15 of petrol in his car but he had been looking at the wrong gauge（計量表） and had put in 15 litres,which came to just over

閱讀理解
專題訓練（一）
閱讀中的猜詞技巧（2）
對比法
方法點撥：
有的文章作者為了增強表達效果，會用一對反義詞揭示事物的不同點，形成鮮明的對比，這時只要把握其中的一詞，就不難推出另一詞的含義;有的根據上下句之間表示轉折或對比關系的連接詞，就可以看到前后句在意義上的差別，從而依據某一句的含義來確定另一句的含義。這種句子多半有unlike, although, but, yet, while, on the contrary, on the other hand, instead of, rather than等信息詞。另外，分號也可以表示轉折、對比的意義。如：
(1)Is he
intelligent
or stupid?
(2)Unlike his brother, who is truly a handsome person, Hogertty is quite
homely
.
1.解析： 根據stupid可推斷出intelligent的意思為“聰明的”。
答案:
聰明的
2.解析： 此句中的unlike一詞暗示了Hogertty和他的兄弟的長相不同，他的兄弟是個handsome(英俊的)人，所以Hogertty一定是一個homely(不英俊)的人。
答案： 不英俊的
◆活學活用
（一）利用上述猜測詞義方法，猜出下列各句劃線部分的意思。
1.Unlike the United States where many different nationalities make up the population, Japan，s population is quite
homogeneous
.
2.Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius
to sell it.
3.Andrew is one of the most
supercilious
man I know. His brother, in contrast, is quite humble and modest.
4.A good supervisor can recognize instantly the
adept
workers from the unskilled ones.
5.Mother was tall，fat and middle-aged. The principal of the school was an older woman，almost as
plump as mother，and much shorter.
A. healthy
B. thin
C. slim
D. fat
1.解析：與many different nationalities相反，故為“單一民族的”。
答案：
單一民族的
2.解析： 由but可知genius是與fool（蠢才）相對的，由此推測其意為“有才能的人”、“天才”。
答案：
有才能的人,天才
3.解析： in contrast 提醒我們supercilious與 humble and modest是對比關系，由此可以猜出其意義。
答案：
目空一切,傲慢的
4.解析： 通讀全句不難看出，說話者是把熟練工人與非熟練工人進行對比，由此可知adept的詞義是“熟練的”。
答案：
熟練的
5.解析： 作者把學校的校長和他的母親相比，其中older對應middleaged，shorter對應tall，所以plump對應fat。
答案：
D
（二）閱讀下列短文,按要求完成讀寫任務。
(2009年重慶高考)
How to Be a Winner
Sir Steven Redgrave
Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
“In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes(糖尿病).Believing my career(職業生涯)was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it—the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn，t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn，t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”
