Identify literal and implied meaning

(阅读微技能:辨别字面意义和隐含意义)

Implied meaning is suggested but not directly expressed.

Why do we need to identify implied meaning: If you fail to identify the implied meaning, it may cause misunderstanding. By identifying the implied meaning, you can understand what is not directly expressed so as to understand the purpose and attitude.

How to:

  1. Understand the literal meaning.

  2. Infer the implied meaning logically with the context(上下文). By topic, synonym, hyponym(下位概念).
