SAT填空題常考詞匯之變義單詞
SAT填空題常考詞匯中有一種單詞類型是變義單詞,所謂變義單詞即已知的單詞,加了ed或者ing等之后意思發(fā)生了詞義非常規(guī)變化,這在SAT填空題中是常常考到的知識點(diǎn),我們舉例說明一下,如:
Although visitors initially may find touring the city by subway to be ______, they are pleased to discover that subways are an inexpensive and ______ way to get around.
A. wasteful generous B. daunting efficient C. extravagant prohibitive
D. convenient solitary E. enjoyable easy
這道SAT填空題目很簡單,但很多同學(xué)沒有把prohibitive的常考意搞清楚,應(yīng)該是昂貴的,與前面inexpensive成反義詞,這樣從邏輯判斷或者說叫感情色彩判斷會很快排除此選項(xiàng)。
以下是筆者列舉的一些變義單詞:
1. Compose composedcomposure
2.affect affecteddisaffected
3.personpersonalimpersonal
4.testtesty-testing
5.demanddemanding
6.exhaustexhaustive
7.fortitude 剛毅fortuitous 偶然的,意外的
8.Category categorical
9.consequenceconsequential
10.Compelcompelling
