雅思閱讀中這些詞語要注意
你是不是也遇到過這樣的情況?在做雅思閱讀時經常會有某句話翻譯不通造成理解障礙從而降低閱讀速度等問題，實際上閱讀中的很多詞彙用法並非是我們最熟悉或者想當然的那個含義。今天給大家分享幾個影響大家閱讀提速的單詞，看看它們有哪些含義。
1. in turn
大多數同學會理解爲 “反過來”，認爲前後語義是對立的，但實際上閱讀中也可能表示順接關係，翻譯爲“接着會…(發生)…”
The conventional theory is that people yawn when bored or sleepy because yawning raises blood oxygen levels, which in turn raises alertness.
2. account for
大家背四級單詞時更多的理解爲 “(比例上)佔…”的含義，實際上account for還有“解釋，說明……”這個意思。
Heavy rain accounts for most of the water that enters into lakes.
Scientists will not be able to account for climate changeover the past century until they learn more about the urban heat island.
3. precipitation
這是個話題詞彙，大多數文章中翻譯爲 “沉澱”，不過也有“降水”的意思。
Ordinary meteoric water is water that has soaked into the ground from the surface, from precipitation (rain and snow) and from lakes and streams.
4. game
不是遊戲哦，在學術文章中經常用來表達“野生獵物”這個意思。下次課別再困惑了。
They had experienced great difficulty finding game west of the Rockies and not until the second of December did they kill their first elk.
5. solution
除了“解決方案”，還要知道另一個常見含義“溶液”。這個詞在小作文流程圖寫作中也是一個得分高級詞彙。
Mineral deficiencies in many plants can be cured by misting their roots with a nutrient solution or by transferring the plants to a soilless nutrientsolution.
6. current
又一個學科背景詞彙。常見的是形容詞表“當下的”，實際還有“洋流、電流、氣流”等含義。
The same thing happens to this day, though on a smaller scale, wherever a sediment-laden river or stream emerges from a mountain valley onto relatively flat land, dropping its load as the current slows: the water usually spreads out fanwise, depositing the sediment in the form of a smooth, fan-shaped slope.
7. browse
家熟知的是“瀏覽”的含義，而實際上託福閱讀中更常表達得是“覓食”這個意思。
Where the forest inhibits the growth of grass and other meadow plants, the black-tailed deer browses on huckleberry, salal, dogwood, and almost any other shrub or herb. But this is fair-weather feeding.
8. impact
除了“影響”，還衍生出“衝擊、撞擊”的意思。這裏提醒大家impact指代的影響也常常是負面含義的影響，大家在寫作中要注意。
In view of these facts, scientists hypothesized that a single large asteroid, about 10 to 15 kilometers across, collided with Earth, and the resulting fallout created the boundary clay. Their calculations show that the impact kicked up a dust cloud that cut off sunlight for several months, inhibiting photosynthesis in plants; decreased surface temperatures on continents to below freezing…
9. complex
作爲名詞的時候可以表達“建築羣”的含義。
It had over 2,000 apartment complexes, a great market, a large number of industrial workshops, an administrative center, a number of massive religious edifices…
10. readily
別因爲長得像“ready”就是準備好的意思，這個詞其實是“容易地”意思。
The release of heat energy is retarded by the tall vertical city walls that do not allow infrared radiation to escape as readily asdoes the relatively level surface of the surrounding countryside.
11. evident
又一個大家習慣想當然的詞。都說成“證據”就不對了，還要知道“明顯的”。
Wind velocity also increases with altitude and may cause serious stress for trees, as is made evident by the deformed shapes at high altitudes.
12. collectively
不能望文生義爲“收集地”，還有“共同地”這個釋義較爲常見。
Eventually, six round forms of handwriting, composed of three pairs of big and little scripts known collectively as the Six Pens, became the standard repertory of every calligrapher.
13. evenly
別以爲“even”加個“-ly”就是甚至的副詞形式，別忘了 “even”本來就是個副詞。這個詞是“均勻地”。
Petroleum forms best when organic matter is evenly distributed over ...
