21、上下取证”，即利用上下文提供的情景和线索，通过对平行结构或对应结构中的同义词、反义词等进行推断，再结合我们的生活常识和社会经验进行符合逻辑的综合分析，并依此来推测词义，切忌脱离上下文盲目猜测。例如上文B篇阅读中的第5题，根据“hit the jackpot”的上下文可知，科学家偶然发现了一颗类似地球的行星，这是一项能够改变科学的新发现。对于发现这颗行星的科学家来说，他们好像是中头奖了。hit the jackpot意为“中头奖”，在此可指“意外成功”。 .读后续写阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。Mei Mei frowned as she helped
