上文已經(jīng)講過，除了過渡詞或詞組之外，起過渡作用的還有代詞、同義詞、連接詞和詞的重復(fù)等。下面分別舉例說明。
1. 起過渡作用的代詞
例：He asked what that meant.
We watched the hikers. They climbed slowly.
以上兩句中的深藍(lán)體字分別起句內(nèi)和句間的過渡作用。
起過渡作用的代詞在下面例子中的作用很大，沒有它，這段文字就不能成立。
It is the most talked-of subject in town. Every family in the community discusses It half a dozen times a day. You mentioned It to at least one of your friends before you came into the room today. You think about It at least once during every class. Its passage is steady. It touched everyone. What isIt? It is Time.
2. 起過渡作用的同義詞
同義詞用得好，不僅有助于文章的連貫，也增加了文采。例如下文：
Community colleges are like the two-year colleges called junior colleges, or "j.c.'s". Both schools prepare students for four-year colleges. J.c.'s offer all the courses most four-year colleges ask their freshmen and sophomores to take. Community colleges also give such required courses. But community colleges are also like other institutions called trade schools. Both schools offer technical training. Trade schools give courses in such areas as carpentry, nursing, television repairing, or photography. Community colleges have complete technical courses for students who do not plan to go on to a university.
3． 重復(fù)詞起過渡作用
詞的重復(fù)是常用的連接手法，它可強(qiáng)調(diào)你所要表達(dá)的意思。按方式，還可進(jìn)一步分為絕對重復(fù)和相對重復(fù)。
Gulls, as they soar, are not always searching for food but merely having fun on the wing. A gull flying along the shore is taking advantages of wind current formed when the sea air strikes the warm land and rises. Gulls also love the lower, weaker air currents that form about three feet above the waves. They ride them for hours, tipping from one current to the next. Most people think that gulls ride behind boats for the food. But garbage is only a small part of what they eat. Clams and fish make up most of their diet. The sea gulls follow boats for the tide on the thermal currents the ships create at sea.
上面文章中的黑體字就是通過重復(fù)來起承上啟下的作用，與同義詞類似。
4. 平行結(jié)構(gòu)起承上啟下的作用
My mother has passed along to me certain rules for getting along with others. Don't argue with parents; they will think you don't love them. Don't argue with children; they will think themselves victimized. Don't argue with spouses; they will think you are a tiresome mate. Don't argue with strangers; they will think you are not friendly. My mother's rules, in fact, can be summed up in two words. Don't argue.
文中的don't argue反復(fù)出現(xiàn)，形成平行結(jié)構(gòu)，有助于段落的流暢和連貫。
