回答四级阅读理解词汇问题2

 关于词汇问题（Vocabu1ary）
        3. 利用文章中对词的定义猜测词义
        Example：
        Such experiences are not unusual for the amateur conchologists, people who collect shells.
        Conchologists的意思可以根据该词后面的同位解释"people who collect shells" 理解为收集贝壳的人或贝壳收藏家。
        
        Example :
        Jack is now a florist, who keeps a shop for selling flowers in our district.
        "florist" 的意思就是其后定语从句"who keeps a shop for selling flowers 所描述的"拥有一家专门卖花的商店的人"，即"花店主".。
        
        4. 利用文章中对词的举例及解释猜测词义

        Example :
        Today young couples who are just starting their households often spend lots of their money on appliances ,for instance ,washing machines , refrigerators and color TVs.
        
        通过所举的例子（washing machines ,refrigerators and color TVs）
        可以看出，"appliances" 应是这些名词的总称，即"家用电器"。
        Example :
        Finally the enemy surrendered. They threw down their weapons and walked out of the home with their hands over their heads.
        通过后一句对"surrendered"的解释：扔掉武器（throw down their weapons ），举起双手（with their hands over heads ）可知其意是"投降"。
