2. Lexis - Lexis is a way of creating cohesion using: synonyms (e.g. "beautiful" for "lovely"); hyponyms and superordinates (e.g. "daffodil", "rose" and "daisy", are all hyponyms of the superordinate "flower"). Lexical chains are created in a text by using words in the same lexical set (e.g. "army", "soldiers", "barracks", "weapons"). These techniques allow for the central themes to be reiterated in a way that avoids monotony for the reader.
1. Substitution - Substitution uses a word/phrase to replace a word/phrase used earlier. For instance "the one(s)" and "the same" can be used to replace nouns (e.g. "I'll have the same."). Verbs can be replaced by "do" (e.g. "The authorities said they had acted, but nobody believed they had done."). In speaking, whole clauses can be replaced by, "so" or "not" (e.g. "I hope so/not.").
3. Conjunction - Conjunction includes listing words such as, "firstly", "next", "lastly"; linkers for addition (e.g. "moreover", "and", "also"); concession (e.g. "but", "however", "despite"); and cause and effect (e.g. "so", "because, "as a result").
4. Ellipsis - Ellipsis is when we omit words because they are understood from the context
(e.g. "John can type and I can [type] too!"
"I don't want to go out, do you?" [want to go out] )
6. Reference - Reference is a way of creating cohesion using determiners (e.g. "this", "that", "these" and "those"); pronouns (e.g. "him", "them", "me"); possessive pronouns (e.g."your", "their", "hers"); relative pronouns (e.g. "which","who", "whose"). This type of cohesion can also be achieved comparatively with expressions like: "similarly", "likewise", "less".
5. Cohesive Nouns - Cohesive nouns are a kind of lexical reference. They can summarize many words in one (e.g. "attitude", "solution", "difficulty"), and have been called 'umbrella' nouns for this reason (Bailey 2006:150). They are used to signal what is to come (e.g. "the problem to be discussed..."), or can refer back (e.g. "The issue mentioned above...").

The Life of a Star
The life and death of a star begins somewhere in space. Astronomers claim that a star begins as a cloud of hydrogen and helium. As the cloud moves about it collects bits of dust and more floating gases. Then the cloud begins to warm as more dust and gases are pulled into it. After a long period of time as the cloud becomes denser, heat and friction cause the atoms to explode. That is how a star is born. The star will burn for about ten billion years as it radiates heat and energy. When the hydrogen begins to burn out the star becomes even larger. At this stage, it gives off a lot of light but not much energy. The star may continue to burn brightly but dies when it runs out of hydrogen. This is the life cycle of a star.

STUDENTS AND SOCIAL SERVICE by Rita Rani
Man has three duties: Duty towards God, duty towards parents and duty towards mankind. Students are born to read, to study books to prepare themselves for examinations. The hue and cry of the world and the heat and dust of life generally do not move them. But there are occasions in a nation’s life when normal duties
suspend and normal life does not function. Then the services of students are essential. Students are not separated/isolated from society. They are also social beings like other classes of people. They enjoy the same social benefits, rights and privileges. There is no rose without a thorn and no right without duties. No wonder then that students have certain duties to the society in which they live in.
