1. 同义句转换题是近几年来中考英语试题的常见题型之一。该题型能够全面考查学生灵活运用英语的能力，要求学生反应敏捷，联想丰富，能用不同的句子或短语来表达同一意义。本文就同义句转换题的特点及转换形式进行分析，希望从中帮助同学们找出规律，提高其应试能力。

同义句转换的实质就是替代、合并和改写句子。具体分析如下：

一：替代

1、 用一个新的词、短语替代原句中有关部分。

如：① I received a letter from Lucy .

= I heard from Lucy . (receive a letter from → hear from )

② I often walk to school every day .

= I often go to school on foot . (walk → go on foot )

③ She decided to stop learning English .

= She decided to give up English . (stop doing sth. → give up doing sth. )

2、 用反义词来替代。如：

3、 ④ We are in different rows . = We aren’t in the same row . (different → same )

4、 ⑤ My bike is cheaper than yours . = Your bike is more expensive than mine . ( cheap → expensive ) 用反义词或反义短语来替换时，一般会有一个否定意义的词，如 not , less , no , never , hardly 等。

二：合并句子

合并句子一般是通过并列连词将两个简单句合并为一句。常见的并列连词有：not only … but also , both … and , neither …nor, either … or 等。例如：

⑥ Mary didn’t go to the park . I didn’t , either .

= Neither Mary nor I went to the park .

⑦ Wei Hua may go to the cinema , or Ann may because there is only one ticket .

= Either WeiHua or Ann may go to the cinema because there is only one ticket . ⑧ John has got a penfriend . Mike has got a penfriend , too .

= Not only John but also Mike has got a penfriend .

= Both John and Mike have got penfriends .

三：改写句子

通过能够表达同一意义的不同句型、句式、语态的转换，来达到改写句子的目的。具体可分为：

1、 复合句改为简单句。含宾语从句的复合句变简单句时，可用不定式改写，将宾语从句中的谓语动词变为不定式。如：

⑨ We all agree that we should leave at once .

= We all agree to leave at once .

⑩ Could you tell me when we will start ?

= Could you tell me when to start ?
