今天我们来看常考的第一种体型:语义衔接题
语义衔接题,即考察词汇,其中动词和名词是重点,该种题型包括对同音及行近词汇的考察。这一点就要求大家平时多多积累。下面我们做一下几个题目,了解词汇复现和词汇同现的技巧
一.词汇复现,就是指某一词以原词、同义词、近义词、反义词、上义词、下义词、同源词形式重复出现在文章中:
1.原词复现
这个简单不做过多介绍
2.同义词、近义词复现

49 vitamins.(1996-49)

二、词汇同现技巧
同现指意义上相互联系的单词同时出现在一个语义场中,每个单词都有其适用的空间,适合的话题,与同一个话题相关的词汇就构成了一个以某一话题为中心的词汇链。同现关系可以分成五种:语义场同现、修饰同现、因果同现、结构同现和同义同现。
1.语义场同现
(5)when he said the
41 of privacy controls contained in European legislation would be left to judges rather than to Parliament.(2001-41)

答案: (1)C。根据上下文及前半句enough的意思,只有excess符合上下文的意思,是enough的近义复现,从反面进一步说明维他命摄取过多没有必要。
(2)A。as well as是一个并列连接短语,连接两个对等成分。显然四个选项中与personal对等的词只有institution。
(3)D。本题填入的词与at构成短语并与at a loss是并列成分或者平行结构,由于中间的连词是or,可判断意义应与loss相反,或者是loss的同义词,再看四个选项没有loss同义词,只有反义词profit。
(4)C。newspaper是medium的一种,与medium是上下语义关系。
(5)B。选项皆为名词,从语义上看,与privacy control相关的话题为保护、解释隐私权。可见,选项中只有interpretation正确。
(6)D。空格前的distance只能用形容词small、big来修饰,不能用near、far。正如price不能用cheap、expensive,只能用low、high修饰一样。
(7)B。因为文章最后一句表示“很难得出结论”,这说明人们对通信革命的经济、政治、社会、文化含义上是有争议的,故选择B。
(8)D。see … in perspective是固定短语,意为“正确地认识/看待”
(9)B。本题中newspaper、pamphlet、book、periodical都是表示并列含义的词,所以空格处需要一个表示这种关系的词,从而与前面的短语in the wake of“在…之后”保持平行一致。因此选B。本句表明,传单和书出现在报纸之前,而期刊是和报纸同时出现的。
(10)A。根据句意:事故率低的公司制定自己的安全计划,努力组织好这些计划,并继续努力以保持这些计划“充满活力”而不是“生动”“灵活”“不同”。再者根据句中线索and可知空白处的词与active应是平行并列结构,词义上互为补充,应是active的近义词,由此也能判断出选A。
