準備TOEFL托福考試閱讀的必拿分題型---詞彙題，首先要掌握常考的「詞彙概念」，例如：purpose就是一個重要的 「詞彙概念」，可以發展成托福閱讀詞彙題不同詞性的同義字和反義字群。
戴爾美語老師準備下面這五個仿TOEFL托福考試的詞彙題，測驗的英文辭彙就是用一個主題概念“purpose”衍生出的同義字和反義字群。

they really are.

(A) purposely (B) accidentally (C) intentionally (D) cautiously
5. The astronomer discovered a new asteroid inadvertently while he was trying to
locate another.
(A) by accident (B) on purpose (C) by design (D) knowingly
解答：D / C / B / D / A
詳解：
1. The objective of this campaign is to raise fund for charity.
(A) connection (B) subject (C) concept (D) goal
*翻譯：本活動的目的在幫慈善機構募款。
*解析：purpose n. 目的 = aim = target = goal = object = objective
purpose表示「目的」，它的同義字很多，大多由其他意思的字轉
借而來。例如，aim、target、 goal的原義是表示射擊的標靶或球門。
objective是由形容詞轉借而來，原本表示「客觀的」。
2. Spain is celebrated as a popular tourist attraction in Europe.
(A) intention (B) purpose (C) destination (D) target
*翻譯：西班牙是歐洲著名旅遊勝地。
*解析：destination n. 目的地
這個題目的用意是在做「字義分辨」，destination是指旅客前往的「目的地」，不同於從事某活動的purpose「目地」。
3. Most modern people tend to make a deliberate effort to look younger than
they really are.
(A) mistaken (B) conscious (C) known (D) accidental
*翻譯：大部分現代人往往刻意看起來比實際上年輕。
*解析：deliberate adj. 故意的 = intentional = conscious
由主題概念purpose的語意可以衍生出許多形容詞，表示「心中懷著目 的」的。例如：deliberate是由主題概念purpose的語意衍生出的形容詞，表示「故意的」。conscious原本表示「意識清醒的」，現在轉借來表 示「刻意的」。
4. The soldier dismantled the bomb calmly and deliberately.
(A) purposely (B) accidentally (C) intentionally (D) cautiously
*翻譯：這名士兵冷靜而小心翼翼地拆除那枚炸彈。
*解析：deliberately adv. 1. 故意地 = purposely = intentionally
2. 小心翼翼地 = slowly and cautiously 。這個題目的用意是在測「一字多義」，deliberately除了表示「故意地」，也可表示「動作慢而細心地」。
5. The astronomer discovered a new asteroid inadvertently while he was trying
to locate another.
(A) by accident (B) on purpose (C) by design (D) knowingly
*翻譯：這名天文學家在確定另一顆小行星的位置時，無意間發現了一顆新的小行星。
*解析：inadvertently adv. 無意間地 = accidentally = unexpectedly = unintentionally = by accident = by chance = by mistake
「故意」的相反是「不小心」，這個題目測驗的是表示「不小心」的副詞用法。
