Use word parts (prefixes/roots/suffixes) to infer meaning when the context supports it.
核心知识
When you hit an unfamiliar word in the answer choices, break it into prefix + root + suffix — then check whether that breakdown matches the context clues in the passage.
深入理解
Word-part analysis is a backup tool, not a primary strategy. Use it when the answer choices include a word you've never seen before and you can't eliminate it on context alone. Common prefixes (un-, mis-, re-, pre-, anti-) and roots (bene- = good, mal- = bad, cred- = believe, dict- = say) can get you to a reasonable guess.
The key step most students skip: confirm with context. Breaking a word into parts gives you a hypothesis about what it might mean. The passage gives you evidence for what it should mean. If the two match, you're on solid ground. If they don't, your breakdown may be wrong — some word parts are misleading ("inflammable" doesn't mean "not flammable").
