省略法就是删去句中相同的词语来回避重复。

B: I hope you will ( ) by tomorrow.
(3) 回避重复不定式
A: Would you like to go with me.
B: Yes, I'd like to ().
(4) 回避重复句子。
This orange is ripe. I know ( ) from its color.
A: I said you would rewrite it for him.
B: I hope you didn't say when ( ).

保留介词法即保留同一个介词以回避名词、动词或形容词的重复，这一般在政论文和演说词中较多见。

6. 紧缩法
紧缩法就是将语句中两个或几个相关联的成分合并在一起，以避免一些词语的重复，使文字变得简洁紧凑。这种方法一般多见于书而形式。
