如何寻找雅思阅读中的定位词

　　找到雅思阅读中的定位词的方法一

　　★ 雅思定位词在文章中出现的第一种也是比较常见的一种变身是“同义替换”，这包含同义词或同义词组。

　　剑4，Test3的Q9：Any street child can set up their own small business if givenenough support.此判断题中定位词实际上是词组“set up their own small business”，在文章中定位，我们会在文章中“Lessons learned” 的部分中定位到“Being an entrepreneur is not foreveryone, not for every street child”。此处，文章中“Being anentrepreneur”即为定位词的同义词组。

　　其他的同义词/词组变身如:

　　perceive →sense evolve →develop detect →find
