大學(xué)英語四六級考試選詞填空“四招”必殺技

　　2007年6月四級真題

　　Years ago, doctors often said that pain was a normal part of life. In particular, when older patients __47__ of pain, they were told it was a natural part of aging and they would have to learn to live with it.

　　Times have changed. Today, we take pain __48__. Indeed, pain is now considered the fifth vital sign, as important as blood pressure, temperature, breathing rate and pulse in __49__ a person's well-being. We know that chronic (慢性的) pain can disrupt (擾亂) a person's life, causing problems that __50__ from missed work to depression.

　　That's why a growing number of hospitals now depend upon physicians who __51__ in pain medicine. Not only do we evaluate the cause of the pain, which can help us treat the pain better, but we also help provide comprehensive therapy for depression and other psychological and social __52__ related to chronic pain. Such comprehensive therapy often __53__ the work of social workers, psychiatrists (心理醫(yī)生) and psychologists, as well as specialists in pain medicine.

　　This modern __54__ for pain management has led to a wealth of innovative treatments which are more effective and with fewer side effects than ever before. Decades ago, there were only a __55__ number of drugs available, and many of them caused __56__ side effects in older people, including dizziness and fatigue. This created a double-edged sword: the medications helped relieve the pain but caused other problems that could be worse than the pain itself.

　　(一)考點

　　1.詞匯：實詞(抽象名詞、動詞、形容詞、副詞)
　　2.語法：句子結(jié)構(gòu)分析能力
　　3.邏輯：上下文聯(lián)系

　　(二)秘訣

　　1.直奔選項，標識詞性
　　名詞(n.)、動詞(v., vt., vi.)、形容詞(a.)、副詞(ad.)
　　A) result v/n
　　B) involves v 第三人稱單數(shù)
　　C) significant a.
　　D) range v/n
　　E) relieved v+ed或視為a.
　　F) issues n復(fù)數(shù)或 v+s
　　G) seriously ad.
　　H) magnificent a.
　　I) determining v. gerund
　　J) limited v+ed 或視為a.
　　K) gravely ad.
　　L) complained v+ed
　　M) respect v/n
　　N) prompting v. gerund
　　O) specialize v.

　　2.細讀開篇，把握主題
　　Years ago, doctors often said that pain was a normal part of life.該句表明文章的主題為病痛這一現(xiàn)象，讀者即可利用先前對這一問題的背景知識幫助理解全文。

　　3.分析空缺，確定詞性
　　如54空，根據(jù)上下文可確定該空為主語，所以需要一單數(shù)名詞，而選項中單數(shù)名詞有result, range, respect，根據(jù)文字本身的含義及其后的介詞for判斷答案為respect。

　　4.辨別詞義，結(jié)合前后
　　如第55空，number前面缺一個形容詞，而形容詞前面為there were only a，帶有一定的負面意義，由此判斷為limited

　　注：
　　1. 直接選定答案：如52空，根據(jù)上下文可確定該空需要一個復(fù)數(shù)名詞，選項中符合條件的只有F) issues。
　　2. 選項中若有相似或相反的，其一常為答案。
　　3. 選項中若有同源詞，其一常為答案。
