六级词汇题高分法 备战最后一次传统六级

 

2023年12月,将举行历史上最后一次传统题型的六级考试(同时,180所试点院校的部分同学,将面对第一次新题型的六级考试)。此后,六级词汇选择题将完全退出广大考生的视线。在传统题型的六级考试中,如果准备充分,词汇选择题是最容易拿分的、最容易提高的一个部分,也是可以在做题时间上节约5-8分钟时间以缓解阅读时间压力的一部分。主要原因是这部分题目的考察点比较规范,题型比较容易把握,解题技巧简单,所考察词汇的重复率极高。

考察点规范

考察的词汇百分之百全是大学英语教学大纲上列出的词汇及其与常见的前缀、后缀组合而成的词汇和大纲上规定要求掌握的短语。其中, 4%左右的题目考察考四级词汇,60%的题目考察5-6级词汇。

题型容易把握

历年来的六级词汇选择题可以分为四种题型,即近义词辨析、形近易混词辨析、词义识别、短语搭配。近义词辨析即选项词汇中有2-3个词汇的汉语含义比较接近,需要根据词汇的准确的'英语解释和上下文的语言环境确定正确选项,这类题目难度较大,但比例并不很高,例如2023年1月第67题:

67. They’re going to build a big office block on that __ piece of land.

A) void B) blank C) vacant D)shallow

A、B、C选项均有“空的”意思。

形近易混词辨析题即选项词汇在字母组合上具有一定的相似性,但含义相距甚远。例如大多数字母相同(compliment/complement, irritate/irrigate)、词根相同(repel/compel/propel)、前缀或者后缀相同(spontaneously/simultaneously/homogeneously/instantaneously)。

词义识别题即选项词汇在形和义两方面均没有相似性,单纯考察词汇是否认识以及是否能够根据上下文选择最恰当的词汇。例如2023年1月第68题:

68. It is my hope that everyone in this class should __ their errors before it is too late.

A) expel B) exclude C) refute D)rectify

短语搭配题即掌握大纲规定的各类短语的含义及用法,选项可能就是一个短语,也可能是短语的一部分已经在题干中。前者例如2023年1月第62题,后者诸如2023年1月第69、70题。

62. While fashion is thought of usually __ clothing, it is important to realize that it covers a much wider domain.

A) in proportion to B) by means of C) in relation to D)on behalf of

69. Police and villagers unanimously __the forest fire to thunder and lightning.

A) ascribed B) approached C) confined D) confirmed

考察ascribe…to和confine…to的用法。介词to已经在题干中,和选项词汇隔开。

70. Without any hesitation, she took off her shoes, __up her skirt and splashed across the stream.

A) twisted B) tucked C) curled D)revolved

考察tuck up和curl up的用法。介词up已经在题干中,和选项词汇隔开。

解题技巧容易掌握

根据题干中确定的信息,寻找其和选项未知词汇的关系,进而根据具体的语言环境,确定答案,题干中的信息和选项的常见关系有:

1.并列或者解释关系,例如:

41. As a _______actor, he can perform, sing, dance and play several kinds of musical instruments.

A) flexible B) versatile C) sophisticated D) productive

58. Somewhat shortsighted, she had the habit of ________at people.

A) glancing B) peering C) gazing D) scanning

2.转折/强对比关系,例如:

44. Competition, they believe, _______ the national character than corrupt it.

A) enforces B) confirms C) intensifies D) strengthens

50. I think she hurt my feelings _________ rather than by accident as she claimed.

A) virtually B) deliberately C) literally D) appropriately

3.条件/因果关系,例如:

61. The poetry of Ezra Pound is sometimes difficult to understand because it contains so many ________ references.

A) obscure B) acute C) notable D) objective

62. The mayor was asked to ________his speech in order to allow his audience to raise questions.

A) constrain B) conduct C) condense D) converge

4. 搭配关系,包括介词搭配和动宾搭配等,介词搭配又分为动词紧跟介词和动词遥控介词两种,例如:

63. The morning news says a school bus ________ with a train at the junction and a group of policemen were sent there immediately.

A) bumped B) collided C) crashed D) struck

动词遥控介词,例如:

45. The accident _______ him of his sight and the use of his legs.

A) excluded B) disabled C) deprived D) gripped

动宾搭配例如:

46. On weekends my grandma usually _______ a glass of wine.

A) subscribes to B) engages in C) hangs on D) indulges in

除此之外,中学所学过的词汇,除个别熟词僻义外,如果在选项中出现,对的可能性很小。例如:

62. This is the ______ piano on which the composer created some of his greatest works.

A) true B) original C) real D) genuine

AC选项都不对。

考察词汇的重复率很高

根据统计,2023年1月 6个题的正确选项词汇在1997年1月到2023年6月的留级词汇考试中没有考过,仅占总题量的20%;32个选项此没有考过,占总选项词汇的26%。2023年6月六级考试中,词汇题的重复考察的词汇比例也高达80%。如果再加上最近几年在阅读中出现过的词汇和短语,再则重复考察的比例接近90%。

六级词汇题高分建议

1.从1997年1月至今的考试真题中的词汇题,认真做3遍。做第一遍何第二遍时,不要在书本上标注答案。核对完选项后,认真分析做错的题目的原因并记录,要搞清楚每一个选项词汇的含义,包括干扰选项词汇的含义。然后按照相同的方法做第二遍。争取在做第三遍时题目能够全部作对。这样,对于考试中重复考察的词汇和短语,就可以轻松拿下。

2.在阅读中消灭大多数六级词汇,特别是最近十年的阅读真题文章,包含了大量的六级词汇中的重要考点。

3.完成上述任务后,在六级考试前2个星期左右,浏览一遍六级考试大纲词汇表,查漏补缺,从而为作对部分没有考察过的词汇题进而取得绝对高分奠定基础。(编辑:赵露)
