(2) 利用并列平行结构
例题5：（对应例文1）
The word “shun” (Line 1, Para. 1) most probably means ___B___.
A) cut down on减少
B) stay away from 远离
C) run out of 用完
D) put up with 忍受（B）
分析：“Humans should not try to avoid stress any more than they would shun food, love or exercise.”在本句话中出现比较more than，把前后的内容进行对比they对应Humans，shun对应avoid，对应正确答案B，stay away from 远离。
总结：灵活利用并列、比较等平行结构寻找对应
(3) 根据上下文的语义推断
例题6：2008年12月
What does Dr. Ross Cartmill mean by “the ostrich approach” (Line 1, Para. 9)? D
A) A casual attitude towards one’s health conditions
B) A new therapy for certain psychological problems
C) Refusal to get medical treatment for fear of the pain involved
D) Unwillingness to find out about one’s disease because of fear
分析：原文Then there is the ostrich approach. “Some men are scared of what might be there and would rather not know,” says Dr. Ross Cartmill. 关于ostrich approach的意思，需要看上下文的内容，也就是对应在后面的那句话，D选项中的Unwillingness to find out对应原文的would rather not know，fear对应scared，因此为正确答案。
总结：语义题不是考察你是否认识这个单词，而是考察你能不能利用上下文推断出它在文章里的含义。
