03’年广东省“阅读理解”短文(C)中有这样一道题涉及猜测词义:
Now there are many houses around the lake. People often use chemicals in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning or killing insects (昆虫). There are also many businessmen. Businessmen use chemicals in their machines or shops.
短文后的第66小题是:
“Chemicals” in the story means ______.
A. 家 B. 污染品 C. 药品 D. 制品
【分析】单从“People often use chemicals in their gardens.”这句话是不大容易猜测出该词的意思的。然而这个词在这个段落中接连出现了三次。第一次是说人们常在花园里使用它,第二次人们在清理房间或杀死昆虫时在屋子里使用它,第三次是说商人们还将其用于机器或在车间中使用。由此,A项和B项明显是错误的。C项具有较大的迷惑性,不过根据“Businessmen use chemicals in their machines or shops.”可知它是不恰当的。
