29、同的作用。(2) 依据反义词和对比关系猜测词义。运用对比手法描述事物或现象是文章写作的一种常用的修辞手法。在这种修辞手段下，作者常借用一些信号词来提供相反信息，从而表明一个词与前面的另一个词互为反义。常用的信号词有：but/yet/however/nevertheless; while/whereas; otherwise/or else; unlike/instead/rather than; by contrast/compared to; on the contrary/on the other hand 等。(3) 依据下定义，作解释猜测词义。在说明文、科技文中运用下定义或解释概念的方
30、法来定义或诠释某一名词或概念是文章写作的又一特点。在写作方法上常采用先总后分(即先定义后解释) 或先分后总(即先说明后结论)的叙述方式。常用的定义信号词有： be defined as/be termed(被定义为) ，be called (被称为), mean/refer to/be(意指，是)。(4) 依据逻辑推理猜测词义。运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式。要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文中相关的词汇并结合具体的语境，从形式和内容上把握语言之间的内在联系，理顺语言之间的逻辑关系，进而达到猜词的目的。常见的逻辑关系有：因果关系，同位关系，对比关系
31、，转折关系等。此外，考生还可以依据词性变化和词义变化(词义引申 )来猜测词义。例如：本文中第 4 小题。【解题剖析】本文中的第 4 小题属于猜测词义中的(4)依据逻辑推理猜测词义。充分利用上下文中相关的词汇并结合具体的语境，从形式和内容上把握语言之间的内在联系，理顺语言之间的逻辑关系，进而达到猜词的目的。CSound travels very well through water-much better, in fact, than it does through air.
