, , , , The life style of modern-dance pioneer Isadora Duncan was considered ______, since it was marked by unconventional behavior and attitudes.
 , , , , A. Equestrian B. Abstemious C. Innocuous D. Perfunctory E. Bohemian
 , , , , 此题为因果关系,暗示为后半句中的unconventional behavior and attitudes(非传统的行为和态度). 放眼望去,发现B, C, D分别为SAT词汇中的典型&ldquo,核心词&rdquo,,分别解释为&ldquo,饮食节制的&rdquo,,&ldquo,无害的&rdquo,和&ldquo,敷衍草率的&rdquo,,但这三个意思和&rdquo,非传统的行为与态度&rdquo,没有任何关联。因此排除这三项之外,我们只能通过猜测来判断答案。E选项中的bohemian,谐音为&ldquo,波西米亚&rdquo,,众所周知,&ldquo,波西米亚风格&rdquo,意指豪放的吉普赛人,追求自由,浪迹天涯。夏日里女孩子穿的流苏,褶皱,大摆裙的&ldquo,波西米亚长裙&rdquo,,也象征着自由不羁,正对应了unconventional behavior and attitudes. 因此E为答案。
 , , , , 例2:(2012.1/section 2/5) Author Luis Zalamea calls novel writing a _____experience, one that cleanse him of feelings of rebellion and frustration.
 , , , , A. subliminal B. perpetual C. stupefying D. cathartic E. corrosive
 , , , , 此题中,逗号后面的同位语部分解释说明为&ldquo,清洗了他的背叛感和挫败感&rdquo,,即让他的感情得到了宣泄。纵向看下选项,如果单词背得不是特别扎实的同学就开始为难了。那么这时候,即便是猜词,也得有理有据一些。我们发现C选项cathartic谐音为&ldquo,开赛&rdquo,。其实,细心的同学会发现,某种药物就叫这个名字,为&ldquo,开塞露&rdquo,。一切都明了了,它就是正确答案。其实,这个词本来就解释为&ldquo,通便的&rdquo,,也有第二个引申义,即为&ldquo,宣泄的&rdquo,。 A(subliminal)潜伏着的,潜在的=invidious, latent, B为高频词解释为&ldquo,永恒的&rdquo,,=permanent, eternal, everlasting, C 令人吃惊的 D 腐蚀性的=caustic
