词语辨析集中在对实词,即对名词?动词?形容词?副词等的考查?主要考查同义?近义?形近词汇的辨析以及词组与习惯用法的辨析?

the other 指两个人或事物中的“另一个”,表示特指?如:We stood on one side of the road and they stood on the other. 我们站在街这边,他们站在那边?

词语辨析是英语学习中的一个难点?中考英语试题中一般以选择题较为常见,如同义?近义辨析的题目,一般为单项选择题,往往是通过给几个词性相同,词义相同或相近的词,让同学们选择一个最确切的答案,此类题目相对而言难度较小?词语辨析也可能出现在完形填空中,近年来完形填空中有关词语辨析的题目所占比例较大,这类题相对较难,因为要做好这类题不仅需要掌握较大的词汇量,而且要具备运用词组的知识和技能?
