雅思阅读在词汇上，归根结底是对同义词的考查。平常的练习中我们会做上十篇的真题阅读文章，我们在考试中会发现一个特点：考试中不会遇到一模一样的文章(或者说几率很小)，但是一模一样的考点词汇却是经常出现。以下是对雅思阅读中出现频率最高的考点词汇的总结：
Be known as = be called = be referred to as
Alter= change = modify
Affect = influence = have impact on
Keep clear of = be away from
Lead to = result in = cause
Because = since = as
Resemble = like
Limb = arm/leg
Calculate = measure
Find =detect
Perceive = sense
Similar =same
Different = distinct
Conclude = draw a conclusion
Adapt to =adjust to
Large pieces of = massive blocks of
Send = deliver
…………
因此，做雅思阅读题之后，我们就应当给自己布置另外一个任务：总结题干和原文里面的同义词。在考场上，你会发现一个一个的惊喜。
