13、在一部分完形填空题目中,考生不需要做出推理判断,仅利用上下文的复现信息,即可轻松确定正确答案。这些词汇复现包括:原词复现:在上下文中同一词汇重复出现。同根词复现:有词形变化的词汇复现。同义/近义词复现:意思相同、相近的表达方式,或者解释性的语言复现。反义词复现:意思相反的表达方式复现。上下义词复现:总括与分述的词汇复现。如rose(玫瑰花)是flower(花)的下义词,flower是rose的上义词。例如上文第2题选项C(climbed)与上一句中的“mountain climbing”为原词复现。 .阅读七选五The Buy Nothing MovementSocial media, mag
