英語(yǔ)四級(jí)寫作技巧：段落的連貫性

在確定好一條條的擴(kuò)展句后，怎樣把這些句子流暢而連貫地組合在一起呢?這便是關(guān)聯(lián)詞發(fā)揮作用的時(shí)候了。在英語(yǔ)中，句與句之間、段與段之間一般都有連詞或關(guān)聯(lián)詞連接，通過(guò)這些詞讀者能夠很清楚地明白文章前后的邏輯聯(lián)系。適當(dāng)使用關(guān)聯(lián)詞是四級(jí)寫作必備的技能，大家應(yīng)該要引起特別重視。常用的關(guān)聯(lián)詞分為四類：

1、列舉類

列舉法常用在議論文中，當(dāng)作者提出一個(gè)論點(diǎn)后，可通過(guò)列舉出一系列事實(shí)對(duì)其進(jìn)行說(shuō)明或論證。列舉類關(guān)聯(lián)詞有：

first(ly), second(ly),... finally; for one thing, for another; on the one hand, on the other hand; moreover; furthermore; what's more; in addition; besides; first of all; in the first place, in the second place; (at)last; then; next; the last but not the least

but; however; yet; otherwise; while; in contrast; by contrast; on the contrary; similarly; likewise; like; conversely; rather than; instead; on the other hand; equally; nevertheless; nonetheless; unlike; still; in the same way; compared with...
