同义替换是雅思阅读G类考试中的一个重要考点，各种题型中都会出现。在 Cambridge IELTS 8 至 Cambridge IELTS 11 的400道G类阅读题目中，绝大部分的题目都涉及了同义替换。
这种考点的出题思路就是题目和（或）选项中的关键词或词组在原文材料中往往以同义替换的形式出现。最常见的替换有两种。
一是同义词替换。这是雅思阅读G类考试中最常出现的，比如，题目中的关键词是well-paid，在原文中该词则被替换成excellent wages。
二是词性的替换。比如，题目中的关键词是explain，在原文中该词被替换成explanation。
同义替换在雅思考试中无处不在。《雅思周计划——词汇》一书专门收录了近年来雅思考试中经常出现的重点词汇及其同反义词，要求考生熟练掌握。

James Gifford investigates some interesting new research into migration patterns of zebras living in Botswana in southern Africa.
A F or any animal to travel over 270 km in Botswana partly across the sand and low bush terrain of the Kalahari Desert is a remarkable achievement. But to do so in 11 days and without any obvious motivation, as this zebra population does, is quite extraordinary. On average their journey involves an exhausting round-trip of 588 km—between the Makgadikgadi salt pan area and the Okavango river—making it second only to the great trek undertaken by the zebra herds in the Serengeti National Park. However, what is even more incredible still in my view is that until recently it was completely unheard of.
B Hattie Bartlam, a researcher, discovered this migration while she was tracking zebra groups, officially known as harems, by the Okavango river for her PhD. Each harem consists of a stallion and his seven or eight mares with juvenile foals. There is no loyalty between zebras beyond this social group, though harems often gather together into so-called herds. For her study, Hattie had planned to compare the small-scale movement patterns of 11 different zebra herds in the area.
