复现是一种词汇衔接手段,它通过原词、同义词、反义词、上义词、下义词、同源词或同根词等形式,重复出现来表达某一概念,使整篇文章上下连贯,有机地衔接在一起。因此,考生可根据文章的具体情况,理解文章的结构和语境,利用文章中的复现现象来选择正确答案。
(1)原词复现。为了表达的需要,在具体的上下文中同一个单词重复出现。如:
All of a sudden I started to feel rather ______. She wondered why I was looking for this sort of ______. I felt even more helpless when she told me that it would be difficult to get a job without experience.
A. encouraged B. dissatisfied C. helpless
D. pleased
A. place B. job C. advice D. help
(2)同义词、近义词复现。同义词、近义词复现是借助意思相同或相近的表达方式,或解释性的语言使上下文的语义得以连接起来。如:
That is what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the ______ of it. The value in dollars is not important; we do it for the pleasure it gives us. A. benefit B. good C. fun D. interest
(3)反义词复现。语意的连贯有时是通过对比结构而采用反义复现的手段,或者是以反义的方式对前文加以解释,考生可以从反义的角度判断正确的选项。如:
Forcing yourself to recall almost never helps because it doesn’t ______ your money; it only tightens it. A. loosen B. weaken C. decrease D. reduce
(4)同源词复现。对于上下文语义复现的表达,还可借助复现信息的同源词或同根词。如: Many teachers believe that the responsibilities for learning lie with the students. If a long reading
