猜词七法 情况一： 情况二：
（1）定义法
该法在考试中应用比较普遍，多用于描述一个新领域、新专业、新单词。而且在文章首段出现的频率最高，因为一般文章首段通常都是为文本话题或标题下定义的。高频短语：…is…; …is called…; …is named…
例1：Archaeology is partly the discovery of the treasures
of the past, partly the careful work of the scientific analyst, partly the exercise of the creative imagination. (‘The Nature And Aims of Archaeology’ 剑4P92 )
例2：The seasonal impact of day length on physiological
responses is called photoperiodism. (‘The effects of light on plant and animal species’ 剑5 P94)
（2）符号法
无论是考试中还是剑桥系列，我们常发现某个单词或词组，乃至句子的前后常会出现一些特殊符号。譬如：破折号（ — ）、冒号（：）、小括号（）、引号（‘ ’），这些符号
都是帮助大家猜测生词的clue，它们的前后通常都是对生词的解释和说明。
例1：Generally, the rates have been modest (lower than bank
rates). (‘Micro-Enterprise Credit for street youth’ 剑4 P65)
例2：In all cases, someone has to act as a source of language
data - an informant.
（3）举例法
雅思阅读文章经常会在某个潜在生词后面，举出一系列的例子。此时，可根据例子，总结出共性。举例子的标志词：for example, for instance, such as, just like, e.g.
The market for tourism in remote areas is booming as never before. Countries all across the world are actively promoting their ‘wilderness’ regions — such as mountains, Arctic lands, deserts, small islands and wetlands. (‘The impact of Wilderness Tourism’ 剑5P86)
（4）关联词法
句子之间的关联词主要分为并列和转折，透露了两句之间表达的意思的方向性是否一致。我们完全可以通过已知的半句所表述的涵义，借助关联词，来推测另外半句的意思。
并列关系：
