看清题型后寻求解决方法--阅读上下文，找到关系常考的关系如下：
1) 直接反义—该词前或后出现的内容提示我们是反义关系。从中文看逻辑会看的更清楚，我们先举个中文的例子：丽丽是个---人，相反她是一个内向的人。从后面的内向可以就应该可以推出前面应该是个外向之类的词。所以我们要关注的是 rather than instead unlike contrast on the contrary.
For example: The main conflict in the novel is between a mother who places a high value on hard work and honor and a son who repudiates his mother’s values instead preferring the easier path to fortune and celebrity
问题： the word repudiates in the passage in closest in meaning to __
A) refuses to accept B) lives up to C) tries to understand D) makes the best of
假如repudiates我们不认识，那么我们可以从后面的小词 instead这个词判定儿子和妈妈的价值观念是相反的，由此信息去看四个选项，你会发现只有A选项带有否定的意味
2) 利用并列关系去判定：
并列关系词如下：and not only ..but also as…as and both … and either… or neither… nor
For example:She embarked on her career by working as a newspaper reporter in Wisconsin and soon began writing novels.
问题: The phrase embarked on in this sentence is closest in meaning to
A) took a trip to B) started out on C) improved upon D) had a opinion about
我们可以从前后关系判定,首先我们看到一个词career职业生涯—care(关心)+er(人)—关心这件事情的人,从事这个职业.我们在这句中看到关健词 and 其后出现soon began让我们知道前后方向是一致的，前面也必然和began是有关系的，所以题目的正确答案是B。
3)解释关系:后面的句子或短词,单词来解释前面的词常见的标志词:contribute to be responsible for account for since therefore for because in which
举个中文例子：丽丽老师昨天扶一下盲人过马路，所以丽丽是一个___人，答案一定是个正能量，一个乐于助人的人，不会是选一个损人不利已的人，因为人家盲人不想过马路，被丽丽老师坚持拉过去了。这种情况就是特例，托福考试中考的都是正常情况。
For example:His big break came with the novel So big(1924) ,which was awarded the Pulitzer in literature.
问题： the word break in this sentence could best be replaced by ___
A) rupture B) revelation C) opportunity D) rest
which was awarded the Pulitzer in Literature告诉我们一定考查的是正态度，所以答案不可能是A) D)，所以应该选 C)Opportunity 是一种有利的状态或合适的时机。
4)动宾关系判定：看看宾语能否受动词去配，或从动词短语搭配去判定
举个中文例子：比如有一个坏人准备选了一个月圆之夜，主楼之巅，绝迹人间，走到楼顶，——下去。A)杀 B)侃 C)跳 D)跑。能和下去搭配的词只有两个一个C)跳 D)跑,从前面的提示可以看出，不可能在楼顶跑下去，除非不跳了，但必须是跑回去。
For example: The oxidation of exhaust gases is one of primary sources of the world’s pollutions. The brown haze that is poised over some of the world’s largest cities is properly called photo chemical smog.
The word poised in this sentence is closest in meaning to__
A) interacting B) sitting C) blowing D) poisoning
首先从搭配关系上可以排除 interacting ,interact with 然后可以从上下文关系排除 blowing over 因为吹走了就是不会有smog.而poison考试中及物才有pollute的含义，不及物只有一种含义表示投毒。
5)形容词修饰名词关系判定—不是每个形容词都可以修饰所有的名词。例如打饭的队伍不说很粗而应该说很长，虽然实际中很多人不排队形成了很粗的现象。
For example:when the gas reaches the air, it comes into contact with available oxygen from atmosphere and combines with the oxygen to produce nitrogen dioxide (No2),which is a gas with a brownish hue.
The word hue in this sentence is closest in meaning to
A)color B)odor C)thickness D)smoke
对于本题你会发现有个小词brownish 呈褐色的，首先从形容词修饰名词关系可以直接排除B odor C thickness， 其次可以通过 a gas with brownish hue前面的 gas 排除 D smoke，用词重复。所以正确答案是A。
