2021军队职称英语阅读英语短文 以词群为单位进行阅读

以下是人事考试教育网收集整理的关于2011年军队职称英语考试的一些经验技巧——军队职称英语备考注意事项及学习技巧，供考生学习参考，提高学习效率。
孤立地记忆英语单词所造成的结果往往是单词不易记住，即使记住了很快又会忘记；面对英语单词诸多的词义和用法不知道应该重点记住哪些，如果把单词的全部词义和用法都记住又绝非易事，而且也没有必要，因为英语单词众多的词义中通常只有少部分词义在英语文章中常见、常用，而只要记住了单词这部分常用的词义和用法就能较好地理解英语短文了。
借助阅读学习和复习英语单词是学好英语单词的有效方法——通过在阅读英语短文中与英语单词的多次“偶遇”，从而渐渐地对英语单词由不熟悉变为熟悉，更重要地是在此基础上还能培养出英语语感——熟悉英语单词在英语文章中的常用词义和用法，并因此能把对英语句子的阅读习惯从原来以单词为单位加以理解变为现在以词群为单位加以理解，从而大大地提高对英语句子的阅读理解速度。
以词群为单位学习英语单词，阅读英语句子
Unless I get a rise（v.得到提薪(=get a raise)）,I'll have a talk with（v.与...谈话）the boss,Henry Manley,George Strong said to himself（v.自言自语).（选自2003年军队职称英语考试综合类(C级)阅读判断题）
所谓词群就是一些习惯在一起出现的单词，这些单词在意义上彼此联系，形成固定搭配或非固定搭配的短语结构。上面这个句子含有三个较常见的词群，如果考生把英语句子以词群为单位进行拆分就能很快理解该句话说表达的意义：乔治·斯壮自言自语地说“除非我得到了提薪，否则我会和老板亨利·曼利谈谈（我工资的事情）”。
