Question

【题目】 A new neighbor moved in three weeks ago. There was a father, a mother, a teenage boy and a grandfather.

It wasn’t long before the “fun” started. One evening, the teenage son Terry came home driving an old car. The car made a lot of noise and had an oil leak (漏油) but Terry only cared about the music coming from the car. He tested it again and again and the music got too loud. Very soon the police arrived and discovered that the car was stolen (偷). The police took both Terry and the car to the police station.

The grandfather, who was a cook, decided to cook some fish in the garden, but he forgot what was doing and went to sleep. A neighbor saw the smoke in the garden and put out the fire. The grandfather thanked him and started a “real” fire again.

解答词义猜测题时，可以使用如下技巧：1、根据上下文来猜测词义；2、通过同义词或近义词来猜测词义；3、通过构词法来猜测词义；4、通过定义或释义来猜测词义；5、通过句法功能来猜测词义；6、通过转折和因果关系来猜测词义；7. 通过生活常识来猜测词义。对于这类题采取“代入法”也非常有效，即将备选答案逐一代入文中，哪一个选项能使句子的意思通顺、连贯，且与上下文的内容一致，哪一个选项就是该题的正确答案。例如，第3小题，词义猜测题。根据文中“Very soon the police arrived and discovered that the car was stolen (偷). The police took both Terry and the car to the police station.” 很快警察来了，发现汽车被偷了。警察把特里和车都带到了警察局。可知，带下划线的“discovered”一词的意思是“找到”，故答案为B。
