7、就可以更加确定答案的正确性的。 28 题的正确选项 coins, 在第三段第一句“dropped all the coins”中复现。 35 题的根据第二段第二句“with a hat in front of him”中 hat 的复现可知正确答案为 B。 2. 同义词或近义词复现同义词或近义词复现 有时为了避免重复,常用意思相同或相近的词或解释性的语言来连接上下文。 例如,37 题 happiness 与句末的 satisfaction 的意思相近,感情色彩相同,都是表示别人 的感谢给自己带来的感受,所以选 A。 3. 上下义词复现上下义词复现 上义词是对事物的概括性、 抽象性说明; 下义词
8、是事物的具体表现形式或更为具体的说 明。换句话说,上下义关系是种类和成员的关系。如 fruit 是 apple, orange, pear 的上义词,而 apple, orange, pear 则是的下义词。 我们可以看到,28 题 coins,39 题 money 和 45 题的 change(零钱) ,除了在文章中可以 找到原词重现外,这三个选项本身就是上下义关系,属上下义复现。coin 是的 change 下义 词,而 change 又是 money 的下义词,它们的关系是 coinchangemoney。 4. 同根词重现同根词重现 同根词是指词根相同的单词。 一般来说, 同根词之间意
9、义相似, 而词性不同, 例如: success, successful, successfully。当然,也有些同根词词性相同,而意义相反的,例如:successful, unsuccessful 等。 36 题的 A 项 selfish 与文章第一段的“selfishly”为同根词,可知正确选项为 A。 二、干扰复现二、干扰复现 本文中干扰复现出现得比较多,例如第 28 题 A. chocolates, C. tins, D. drugs 都在上 下文中出现过了。还有 32 题的 C. expected,35 题的 A. rag、 C. pocket、D. counter,40 题 的 A.
10、 moment 、C. break、D. event,等等,都属于干扰复现。 Exercise(一)一) As a young man, Al was a skilled artist with a wife and two fine sons.
