从完型词汇考点看真题在考研备考中的价值

考研英语试题中取消了词汇单选题，但是，从近几年的完型填空的词汇考点可以明显看出，很多比较难的词汇考点是以前历年词汇单选题的考查点。例如：

The Lord Chancellor said introduction of the Human Rights Bill, which 43 the European Convention on Human Rights legally 44 in Britain , laid down that everybody was 45 to privacy and that public figures could go to court to protect themselves and their families.

43.[A] changes [B] makes [C] sets [D] turns

44.[A] binding [B] convincing [C] restraining [D] sustaining

45.[A] authorized [B] credited [C] entitled [D] qualified

其中，第43题比较简单，在四个动词中，make可以跟宾语和宾语补足语，例如1994年完型中的句子Inaccurate or indefinite words may make it difficult for the listener to understand the message which is being transmitted to him.此外，set可以有这种用法，但只限于set somebody free或者set something in order,其它的两个选项词汇没有这种用法。

第44题的考点和1994年词汇题第35题的考点非常类似，该题目如下：

35. I support your decision, but I should also make it clear that I am not going to be _________ to it.

[A] connected [B] fastened [C] bound [D] stuck

正确答案是(C).(A) (be) connected一般不与to搭配，而用be connected with："与……有联系。"(B)(be) fastened to："被紧紧抓住"。(C)be bound to sth："必定"，"受……约束"的意思。这符合题意，故应选(C)。(D)stick to："坚持"，一般不用被动语态。这句话的意思是：我支持你的决定，但我必须讲清楚，我不打算受到它的约束。Bound是bind(v.绑, 镶边, 装订, 约束)的过去分词，其中一个含义是“受……约束的”，而binging是bind的现在分词，表示“具有约束力的”，当年的考试中，这一个题目的错误率很高。此外，B选项词汇fasten是2001年完型填空第32题的D选项词汇。

第45题则重复了1995年词汇真题的第25题的词汇考点，该题目如下：

5. It is well-known that the retired workers in our country are _________ free medical care.

[A] entitled to [B] involved in [C] associated with [D] assigned to

正确答案是(A)

(A)entitled to："给予……;授予"。(B)involved in："卷入，被涉及到"。(C)associated with："与……有关的"。(D)assigned to："把……分配给"。(A)与题意吻合，故应选(A)。

此外，2006年的完型第6题和1998年第24题的B选项考点range相同，2006年第17题的考点comprehensive出现在1995年第33题的题干中,2005年第4题的考点和1995年的35题的考点相同，2005年底13题和1994年第23题的词汇考点相同。类似的例子不胜枚举。统计表明，1994年到2001年所考过的160个词汇题中，40%以上的选项词汇作为日后完型真题的考点词汇或者选项词汇，因此，可以毫不夸张的说，这8年的考研词汇是我们考研英语备考中的聚宝盆。把这些题目搞清楚，对于提高我们的考研词汇能力，具有重要的意义。

以上为2001年考研英语完型第43、45、46题

1994年考研词汇真题解析

21.Please do not be ________ by his bad manners since he is merely trying to attract attention.

[A] disregarded [B] distorted [C] irritated [D] intervened

正确答案是(C)

题目分析：regard表示"考虑"，所以(A)disregarded：表示"不理、不顾、漠视"之意。(B) distorted："弄歪，歪曲"。(C)irritated："被激怒，恼火"。(D) intervened：意为"介入、插入、干涉"，一般为不及物动词，因此不可能有be intervened这种被动语态，可以用intervene with短语。从意思上讲，只能是"被他的坏行为"激怒,不可能为其它意思，因此(C) irritated为正确答案。

22. Craig assured his boss that he would __________ all his energies in doing this new job.

[A] call forth [B]call at [C]call on [D]call off

24. When confronted with such questions, my mind goes __________, and I can hardly remember my own date of birth.

[A] dim [B]blank [C] faint [D] vain

正确答案是(B)

题目分析：(A)dim:" 昏暗的，模糊的"，go dim:指"(脑子)变得混沌不清楚。"(B)blank: "空白的"，go blank指"(头脑)变成一片空白"，与后面"我几乎记不起来我自己的生日"意思相吻合，故应选(B)。(C)faint : "衰弱的，昏晕的"，go faint :一般指"(身体)发晕";(D)vain :"空费的，徒劳的;自负的"。一般不与go搭配，短语in vain是“徒劳的，白白的”。

25. It is well known that knowledge is the _________ condition for expansion of mind.

[A] incompatible [B] incredible [C] indefinite [D] indispensable

正确答案是(D)

题目分析：(A)incompatible: "不能共存的，不相容的"。(B) incredible："难以置信的;不可思议的"。(C)indefinite: "含糊的;不明确的"。(D)indispensible："必不可少的;必需的"。此题目译为：大家都知道，知识是扩充头脑的必不可少的条件。It是形式主语，that引导的是主语从句。根据上下文判断，(D)是最合适的答案。

[A] oblige [B]owe [C]contribute [D]valuable
