Capacitance, or the ability to store electric charge, is one of the most common characteristics of electronic circuits.
由同位语我们很快猜出生词capacitance词义--电容量。需要注意的是:同位语前还常有or, similarly, that is to say, in other words, namely, or other say. 等副词或短语出现。
定语从句:
Krabacber suffers from SAD, which is short for seasonal affective disorder, a syndrome characterized by severe seasonal mood swings.
根据生词SAD后面定语从句which is short for seasonal affective disorder和同位 语a syndrome characterized by severe seasonal mood swings, 我们可以推断出SAD含义,即"季节性情绪紊乱症"。
3. 根据举例猜测词义恰当的举例能够提供猜测生词的重要线索
例如:
