"(45)B to the following questions by a (46)A of hands,"my professor instructed.
"How many of you can tell me something about your parents?"Everyone's (47)B.
"How many of you can tell me something about your grandparents?"About three-fourths put up their hands.
"How many of you can tell me something about your (48)C?"Two out of sixty students raised their hands.
"Look around the room,"he said,"In just two short generations(49)D any of us even know (50)Dour own great-grandparents were.Oh sure,maybe we have an old photograph in a musty(发霉的)cigar box.(51)A maybe we know the classic family(52)B about how one of them walked five miles to school barefoot.But how many of us (53)D know who they were,what they thought,what they took pride in,what they were afraid of,or what they dreamed about?Think about that.Within three generations our ancestors are all but forgotten.Will this (54)A to you?"
"Here's a better question.Look (55)B three generations.You are long (56)C.Instead of you sitting in this room,now it's your great-grandchildren.What will they have to say (57)D you?Will they know about you?Or will you be (58)A,too?"
"Is your life going to be a (59)C or an example?What legacy will you leave?The (60)D is yours.Class dismissed."
Nobody rose from their seats for five minutes.

点评 同义复现是英语中常见的一种现象.为强调某一意思,但又不想重复使用某个词或短语.在完形填空题中,同义词或同义短语的位置多半比较靠近,很容易找到,所以同义复现法是很好的解题技巧.无须过多的推理,只需确定是哪里使用了同义复现,然后从选项中找出与之相符合的一项即可.
