《大学英语教学大纲》中,关于四级词汇的要求是:“领会式掌握4200单词(其中复用式掌握的单词为 2500)以及由这些词构成的常用词组1600条(中学所掌握的单词和词组均包括在内),并具有按照基本构词法识别生词的能力。”大纲中所指的领会式强调对词义的认知,而复用式则强调对这类词的词义辨析、用法以及搭配关系的掌握。
因此,以大纲为指导,四级考试中词汇的内容,除了考察对单词的认知外,还测试词义的细微区别、词汇用法和搭配关系。目前考察领会式词汇为73.9%占大部分,复用式占26.1%。在此篇和上期所列重点词汇的四级考题中,bare,concentrate,contribute,continual,critical都以复用式词汇方式来考察。其中,bare和continual考察词义的辨析;concentrate, contribute和critical考察了词的搭配关系。
