一、换用笼统词
词大体可分为两类:笼统词和具体词。笼统词的特点在于意义广泛、搭配性强。虽然它们独自不能精确表达一个动作,但在构成词组以后可替代很多具体词。写作中遇到一些具体词写不出来的时候,用笼统词取代,能收到异曲同工之妙。最常用的笼统词有 have,take等。
例:迈克经历了一个极其艰苦的时代。M ike experienced a terrible hard time.写作时,若忘记了experience可用笼统词have代替,写成M ike had a terrible hard time.同样能收到预期效果。
再看几例:Are you married?= Do you have a wife /husband?
Do you understand my meaning?=Do you take my meaning?
She will subscribeto Chi- na Today.=She will take China To- day.
二、换用同义词、反义词
遇到未曾学过的词或一时想不起的词时,可采用发散性思维,发挥想象力,尽可能想出与之有关的同义词、反义词,利用语言的内在联系、多层次、多角度地运用语言,使单词受阻现象得以解决。
例:昨晚李雷做了一场恶梦。
Li Lei had a nightmare last night.因nightmare使用率不高,不易记住。但其同义词bad dream易记。上句可换译为:Li Lei had a bad dream last night.
