四、副詞題
副詞題相對較少。副詞主要用以修飾動(dòng)詞或形容詞,我們自然應(yīng)從被它修飾的動(dòng)詞或形容詞入手,來確定可能的答案。
1.根據(jù)由空缺處副詞修飾的動(dòng)詞,來確定正確答案。
2.如果空缺處的副詞用以修飾后面的形容詞,則該形容詞的語義在確定答案時(shí)往往起著關(guān)鍵性作用。
例1.Some people either____avoid questions of right and wrong or remain neutral about them.
A.violentlyB.enthusiasticallyC.sincerelyD.deliberately
題中,能修飾動(dòng)詞avoid的副詞最有可能的是D.deliberately(故意地)。
2.These areas rely on____agriculture almost,having few mineral resources and a minimum of industrial development.
A.respectivelyB.extraordinarilyC.incrediblyD.exclusively
本題中,四個(gè)副詞“分別地”、“異乎尋常地”、“不可思議地”和“惟一地”之中,只有D修飾rely on比較合適。
3.Although the national government has introduces some new laws on this subject, it is the state governments that are____responsible for pollution control.
A.preciselyB.primarilyC.progressivelyD.preliminarily
同樣,本題中應(yīng)當(dāng)是“由政府主要負(fù)責(zé)污染的控制”,即答案為B. A.“精確地”、C.“漸進(jìn)地”和D.“初步地”均不能修飾“負(fù)責(zé)”。
五、短語題
六級詞匯題中還有為數(shù)不少的短語類試題,對于這類試題的解答,主要根據(jù)該短語的句法功能確定所分屬的詞類,然后再根據(jù)上述四大詞類的不同解題方法解答即可。
例1.The terrorists might have planted a bomb on a plane in Athens,set to____when it arrived in New York.
A.go offB.get offC.come offD.carry off
本題選項(xiàng)為短詞動(dòng)詞,在句法功能上為不及物動(dòng)詞,根據(jù)其邏輯主語a bomb,可知答案為 A.go off(爆炸)。
2.Attempts to persuade her to stay after she felt insulted were____.
A.in no wayB.on the contraryC.at a lossD.of no avail
本例中四個(gè)選項(xiàng)為介詞短語,根據(jù)句法功能作表語,相當(dāng)于形容詞,根據(jù)其對應(yīng)的主語“attempts”可知答案為D.of no avail(徒勞的)。
六、專家點(diǎn)撥
短語中還有一類不屬于上述四大實(shí)詞類的連接性短語介詞,對于解答這一類試題,一定要在理解空缺前后邏輯關(guān)系的基礎(chǔ)上,才能較有把握地選定正確答案。
例1.The younger person's attraction to stereos cannot be explained only liarity with technology.
A.in quest ofB.by means ofC.in terms ofD.by virtue of
題中B和D為同義,均表示“通過”,D又有“由于”之意,A為“尋找”,C為“根據(jù)”。根據(jù)題意,對年輕人喜歡立體聲這一現(xiàn)象的解釋,只能“根據(jù)”他對立體聲技術(shù)的熟知程度來進(jìn)行,故答案為C.
