高考英语熟词生义168个

《普通高等学校招生全国统一考试说明》中的词汇表是命题人的主要依据，而这个词汇表只提供了英语单词或短语的拼写形式，未有词性和词义。这就给命题人提供了广阔的活动空间，给他们减少了很多限制，但却给考生增加了几倍的难度。因为英语中的一词多义多性现象是普遍存在的。例如：

高考真题再现：

1. Though having lived abroad for years , many Chinese still ________the traditional customs.

perform B. possess

observe(遵守规则，法律等) D. support

2. I can still remember he was always wearing (流露，面带)a smile and willing to help.

didn't plan our art exhibition like that but it_____ very well．

A．worked out B．tried out C．went on D．carried on

正确答案为A。此处work out的词义为“（情况）发展……”、“进行……”。其余干扰项的干扰作用都很大。如果没有完全掌握work out的含义，根本无法选定这个选项，更何况，我们的课本根本未有把work out作“（情况）进展”、“进行”解释过。单选题如此，阅读理解、完形填空等题中熟词生义现象更是比比皆是。为了能使我们广大考生顺利通过考试，我们将根据《考试说明》的词汇表，按照字母顺序举例解析我们常见常考的熟词生义。
