英语的类推法(analogy )

英语中的类推法(analogy),是SSAT考试中一项内容。它的形式是:先给出一对单词,叫关键词(key words),随后附有五对单词。关键词之间存在某种内在的联系。考生必须根据关键词关系的性质,以此类推,从五对单词中挑选出正确的答案。例如:

TEAM: PLAYER:

a. novel: author

b. desert: tree

c. stadium: athlete

d. flag: country

e. platoon: soldier

首先,确定关键词之间的联系:

A player is a member of a team. (从属关系)

然后,逐句类推分析, 看意思对不对:

a. An author is a member of a novel. 显然不对,予以排除。

b. A tree is a member of a desert. 意思不通,予以排除。

c. An athlete is a member of a stadium. 同样意思不通,予以排除。

d. A country is a member of a flag. 还是不通,予以排除。

e. A soldier is a member of a platoon. 与关键词的关系类似。

所以,正确答案为 e.

从这个例子可以看出,确定关键词之间的内在联系,是解答这类题目的关键。而关键词之间的内在联系则是五花八门,有从属关系,有程度强弱关系,有同义反义关系,循无定则。这就要靠学生平时的积累和推理能力了。
