1.语境题.对文章首段进行分析后,本题的解答会变得十分容易.前一句讲聪明购买是一种可以让你的钱花更长时间的积极方法.注意到前句中的a positive way,而本句则是对前一句提出的观点的进一步解释,所以本题应该选择way.这道题时间上用到了我讲过的复现结构的解题方法.
2.语境题.本题是我讲过的标志词法解题的典型应用.分析句子The __1__ you go about purchasing an article or a service can actually __2__ you money or can add __3__ the cost.句中的宾语部分actually __2__ you money or can add __3__ the cost.中含有标志词or,而or前后的两部分结构是并列的,意思是相反的,即can actually __2__ you money和can add __3__ the cost.是两并列结构.由add可知后半部分是讲增加花费,则前半部分的意思应该是减少花费,即省钱的意思.所以本题答案为save.英语作文
