医学类的题材在雅思阅读中也屡见不鲜,其中提及的专业术语往往令人望而却步,医学相关专业的考生遇上了当然是做起题来得心应手,而非专业的大多数考生则是瑟瑟发抖。

 

难道做个雅思阅读还得是各专业全才吗?!哈,那大可不必。雅思是门语言考试,怎么会考专业知识呢,正因为这一点,我们才把专业术语当成是阅读里常常是原词重现的特殊定位词,定位一定一个准。

不过,备考期间若能多积累一些阅读话题类词汇,做起阅读题来更是如虎添翼,那就赶紧先来整理一些常出现在阅读中的疾病表达吧。

 

疾病的总称

听到“疾病”,个想到的英文单词是什么呢?是disease吗?disease这个词儿的确是阅读题里的常见词汇,但众所周知阅读同义替换的出题原则,所以除了disease,还有哪些“疾病”的表达吧:

 

illness

【C9T1P1考点句】 And, in what would have been particularly pleasing to Perkin, their current use is in the search for a vaccine against malaria.

【C12T7P3考点句】Perhaps  one of the most obvious examples of this idea is malaria-prone areas, which are usually tropical regions that foster a warm and damp environment in which the mosquitos that can give people this disease can grow.
