忘词，是我们都经历过的事件，越是想要表达它的时候，就越是找不到合适词。也许你想说的就在嘴边，但就是忘了怎么拼写了。

如何应付这种情况使作文顺利进行下去？

一.试用笼统词

英语语言中笼统词有have、take 等，笼统词的重要特点在于意义广泛，搭配性强，构成词组后可以替代众多具体动词。虽然不能精确表达一个动作，却能大致表达意思。在一些具体动词写不出来的时候，用这些笼统词取代，也能收到异曲同工的效果。

例如：我经历了一个极其艰苦的时代。

I experienced a terrible hard time.

这一句中，experience被遗忘时，用have代替，成为：I had a terrible hard time. 其效果及表达的意义决不亚于第一句。这样的例子还很多。如：

Do you understandmy meaning, sir? = Do you take my meaning, sir?

I will presideover the meeting. = I will takethe meeting.

I will subscribeto the local newspaper. = I will take the local newspaper.

They occupiedthe city. = Theytookthe city.

The boy resembles father. = The boy takesafter father.

从以上的例句不难看出，具体词音节较多，使用频率不高，容易遗忘，而笼统词则不然。因此，在作文应试中，笼统词取代具体词，不失为一种应急良策。

二.联想有关词汇

当遗忘产生时，或遇到未曾学过的词时，应采取放射性思维，发挥想象力，想出一切与之有关的单词，利用语言的内在联系，多层次，多角度地运用语言。一般情况下，联想可按下列思路进行：①联想同义词；②联想反义词。

英语语言中众多的同义词在许多情况下是可以通用的。利用这一规律，由于某个单词受阻而影响全篇写作的情况便不会出现。试看下列句子：

I had a nightmarelast night. = I had a bad dreamlast night.

Nightmare 使用频率不太高，因此不太好记。而其同义词bad dream 却很容易记。以后者取代前者丝毫不影响原句的意义。再比如：I don‘t understandt word. 也可以说成 I don’t knowt word.

另外：

He is stupid. = He is foolish. = He is a fool. = He is silly.

The food is delicious. = The food is tasty. = The food is nice to eat.

They discontinued the work at five. = They stopped the work at five.

His temper is nasty. = His temper is terrible. = He has a bad temper.

英语语言中词与词之间是有联系的，词与词之间语义的“共核”现象即所谓的同义词。丰富的同义词给我们提供了极大的方便。

同样，用其反义词来取代某一遗忘了的词也是可行的，请看下面的例子：

He is stubborn. = He is not tame.

The knife is blunt. = The knife is not sharp.

T is expensive. = T is not cheap.

She is talkative. = She is never quiet.

三.试用解释性语句

语言的功能在于表达，而表达的方式是多种多样的。当一个词影响到可以沟通。英语当中多功能解释性语句，就可以起到这一作用。请看下面的句子：

He is a dumb. = He is a person who can not speak.

He refused. = He said “no”.

I’ve never seen such a stubborn person. = I’ve never seen such a person who never listens to other‘s advice.

解释性语句能帮助我们巧妙地避开一些大词，难词，又能使意思表达流畅，不失为一聪明之举。
