详解雅思阅读中的同义替换词汇及词组
2. 不同词性的同义替换:
不同词性同义代换顾名思义,就是在代换时不受词性的限制,比如:obvious换成clearly; similar换成resemble等。
Example 1:
Despite substantialfunding, results (of this program) have been disappointing.
代换为:This program failedalthough they received sufficient funding.
因为把disappointing换成了failed, “although”代换了“inspite of”, 通过词的代换就会很自然的实现英文中提倡的句式多样性。
词组的转换一般情况下是同义词转换的一个衍生。当一个词无法用另一个同义词到位地解释时,可能会出现用词组解释的情况。另外如果本身就是词组的形式,那么通常来讲还是会用词组的形式进行解释。
例如:
Example 1:
原文:Computers are gainingin popularity, despite their cost.
题目:Computers are morepopular than they used to be.
原文当中的gaining in popularity题目中用morepopular than they used to be作为替换。两者在意思上属于完全一致的同义转换,因此答案为TRUE。
Example 2:
原文:Biologically, aspecies becomes extinct when its last individual dies.
题目:In biological terms,a species is said to be extinct when only one individual exists.
原文当中的biologically用题目的inbiological terms作为替换。Become则由issaid to be作为替换。但是原文当中的die在题目中变成了exist, 直接相反的意思。介于最后这一处的转换与原文信息不符,可以判断出此题答案是FALSE。
