67、 in the context or simply absorbing them without conscious effort. The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word
68、 lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no one will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it. Read plenty of good books. When you come across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand
69、it from its context. If you cant, and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious(认真的), write the word and its meaning in a personal voca
70、bulary list preferably using it in a sentence, or you can keep a special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days. Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanin
71、gs of words you already know. Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read. Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meanings of words. If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words
72、in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited(继承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000600 000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German. 64. When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do?A. Guess its meaning. B. Ask somebody. C. Look it up in a
73、 dictionary. D. All of the above. 65. According to this passage, the best way to build a good vocabulary is _. A. to remember a lotB. to read a great dealC. to take part in a lot of good talksD. both B and C66. The phrase “be alert to” in the third paragraph may best be replaced by “_”. A. look at B
74、. pay attention toC. write down D. learn by heart67. In the fourth paragraph, the word “them” refers to _. A. the parts of wordsB. prefixesC. suffixesD. roots答案及解析:怎样扩大词汇?捷径是:多读、多说、多听、多写。64. D。细节题。从第二段第二、三句话可知答案为 D。65. D。细节题。只要看到第一段第二句话The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a
