根據語義復現解答完形填空題

在寫作中，由于文意上的需要或者為了使前后句之間的邏輯關系更加緊密，作者常常會重復前句中的某個信息點，這個重復的信息點可能是用同一個詞語來表達，也可能是用同義詞來表達。

在完形填空中，要求填的空格處的信息詞很可能就是對前句中某個信息點的重復。因此，解答時，要根據空格句與前一句之間在意義上的邏輯關系，看空格處是否是對前一句某個信息點的重復，若有重復，就可以很容易選出正確選項。

一、同詞復現

同詞復現是指前后句的重合信息是用同一個詞語來表達的情況。

[例1]Tales of the supernatural are common in all parts of Britain. In particular， there was (and perhaps still is) a belief in fairies(仙女). Not all of these_______are the friendly， people-loving characters that appear in Disney films， and ...(2008年廣東高考21題)

A. babiesB. believersC. fairiesD. supermen

[解析]前句說是人們“相信有仙女”，后句“并非所有這些_______是友好的”，承前邏輯，空格處應填“仙女”了，故選C。

二、同義復現

同義復現是指前后句的重合信息是用同義詞語來表達的情況。

[例2]There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the baby’s head while he slept or covering him with some of his father’s clothes were just two of the recommended__________. (2008年廣東高考27題)

A. casesB. toolsC. stepsD. methods

[解析]前句說“避免這類的事發生有許多方法(ways)”，冒號后的解釋，“在小孩睡覺時在其頭上懸掛一把刀，或者用其父親的褲子蓋著他，就是其中值得推薦的兩種________”，承前邏輯，自然是其中的兩種“方法”，與ways同義的是methods，故選D。

三、結構復現

語義復現，有時空格處的信息并不局限于與前一句中某個信息點的重復，可能是與前幾句中的某個信息點的重復，也不局限于同詞復現或同義復現，甚至連句式結構都非常類似。

[例3]Alfred Nobel became a millionaire and changed the ways of mining， construction， and warfare as the inventor of dynamite (炸藥). ...“Dr. Alfred Nobel， who became______by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever before， died yesterday.”(2009年廣東高考23題)

A. famousB. sickC. richD. popular

[解析]前面句中的“Alfred Nobel became a millionaire...”與““Dr. Alfred Nobel， who became___23___...”，因引導定語從句的who指代的就是Alfred Nobel，兩句是何等的相似呀!且兩句的后部分的內容分別為“發明了炸藥”與“找到了更快的殺人方式”，兩者的意義何等接近!可見，與“變成百萬富翁”對應的應當是“變成富裕”，故選C。
