　　此類題涉及的單詞往往是比較簡單的詞，多數(shù)是構(gòu)成一些慣用搭配，表示某種特殊的比喻義。這些單詞或詞組不能按其字面的意義去理解，要結(jié)合上下文確保所理解的意思可以使語義通順�？忌�平時要注意積累慣用搭配。

　　練習(xí)：

　　I’ve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much we might like to think so…..

　　When the author says the creative mind and the critical mind “cannot work in parallel” in the writing process, he means _______

　　A. no one can be both creative and critical

　　B. they cannot be regarded as equally important

　　C. they are in constant conflict with each other.

　　D. one cannot use them at the same time

　　正確答案：D

　　作者說 creative thinking和critical thinking兩個階段，可以推斷they cannot work in parallel..指的是兩個階段是有先后次序的，不可能同時進(jìn)行。所以選D。
