　　不为所动的

　　所以我们来一起看一看常见的替换类型：

　　1、描述型替换

　　题目和原文是现象对应本质，概念对应例子, 或单词对其解释。

　　比如狄老师认真回答学生问题, 批改作业到深夜，原文中说有职业责任感，这个就是同义替换.

　　我们以真题为例：

　　题目：The consumption of fossil fuel would be cut because agricultural vehicles would be unnecessary. C11

　　原文：It would reduce fossil fuel use, by cutting out the need for tractors, ploughs and shipping.

　　其中vehicles对应其中的一种例子tractor，unnecessary对应其词义解释cutting out the need for，再比如：

　　C8 chemical fertilizer and pesticide，farming grow plants and herd animals

　　C9 serious problemsnuclear war and pollution，C10 a range of functions gathering, leisure, relaxation, worship

　　C11 Unnecessarycutting out the need for

　　很明显不属于同义词, 但却是对同一事物的不同表达方式, 多个词对应一个词.这在雅思中出现几率非常大. 这种替换找不到就会很恼火,因为全是你认识的词, 但是就是脑子转不过来, 所以需要大家有这么一个意识, 不要按同义词严丝合缝的去找替换.

　　2、同义词替换

　　此类替换比较复杂，也非常常见。

　　比如:

　　题目:Much effort is made and correct answers are emphasized C6T3

　　原文:The emphasis is on hard work coupled with a focus on accuracy.

　　其中Much efforthard work, andcoupled with, correct answersaccuracy, emphasisfocus on

　　但是有些题目，大家会发现词都认识，但感觉不到其间的替换关系?

　　原因很简单，这些单词你并不认识。中英单词不是一一对应的，单词的核心意思具体语境下会有变化，拘泥于中文含义理解单词则体会不出单词的语境意，也就找不到替换了。

　　题目: the most important step is for school authorities to produce a _ policy _C6T4

　　原文:A key step is to develop a policy on

　　produce和develop 能不能叫替换词?生产和发展,乍一看好像不是。理解词义的最好方式是看英英词典, 但大家能坚持做到的不会很多, 所以大家可以尝试方式, 用中文解释其中文词义，解释后的部分更贴近单词的核心词义。生产和发展都是弄出了一个什么新的东西，本义是相近的。

　　再比如

　　原文： detect(侦查)the flaws

　　题目： locate(定位)the faults

　　Detect和locate都有寻找的位置的意思，本质上是有相同的含义的。

　　原文：there is damage to property too.

　　题目： does considerable damage to buildings

　　这就是一词多义，有些词义比较接近，有些相差较远，这在语言中是一个很常见的现象，比如在汉语中，问：小红，你有腿毛吗?答：有个毛啊!

　　粗暴地背中文词义很难能解决问题，大家应该尝试去理解单词在不同语境、针对不同对象时词义的变化。至于怎么背阅读的词, 咱们日后再说。

　　3、词性转换

　　单词的后缀决定词性，大多数情况下后缀改变不影响词义，少部分词有词义的变化。

　　Consume consumption

　　secrete secretions

　　fertilize fertilizers

　　creativity creative

　　investigative investigate

　　half halve

　　prefer preference

　　emit emission

　　error erroneous

　　medical medicine

　　当我们确定要找的题目中的词不认识时，我们只能找到它在原文中的原词重或词性转换。大家可以在背单词时留心一下词缀部分，不用去背名词后缀有什么，动词后缀有什么，你只需要逆向看到这个后缀能联系到题目中的词即可。

　　4、逻辑词的替换

　　主要考察四种逻辑：因果，并列，转折，否定，考察的较少，但是也偶尔会成为出题点

　　因果：because for，as，since，result in，therefore，contribute to，breed因为导致都含有一个因果关系的替换，有因就有果。

　　并列：and as well as， first second third，range fromto

　　转折：but however，despite， although

　　尽管但是都有一个让步转折的逻辑，比如：虽然你长得丑，但是你想得美啊。在英语中出现了although则不会出现but，否定：not 如果题目中有否定词，经常可以拿来优先寻找，因为全文大多是肯定句，少数是否定句，会更加好寻找一些，比如：lack、 vanish、 in need of、little、fail to, 以及有less、free等否定后缀的词。
