| Writing Skill 要获取段落的连贯性，就必须注意句子与句子之间的衔接。如果我们根据各句要表达的意思， 使用恰当的关联词标示出句间的逻辑关系，就会使句与句之间的衔接得到加强。本节中主要介绍作关联词的并列连词。 一． 表示意义转折和对比的并列连词 常见的有：but, yet, still, however。 例如：The bike was quite old but it was in excellent condition. 二． 表示选择的并列连词 常见的有：or, either…or, 等。 例如：Heat the water or it will freeze. 三． 表示因果意义的并列连词 常见的有：for, so, therefore, thus 等。 例如：It rained, therefore the game was called off. 四． 表示联合关系的并列连词 常见的有：and, both…and, neither…nor, not only…but also, as well as等。 例如：Neither the students nor the teacher has read the paper. （Now, we have just finished the discussion about conjunction. It's your turn to do the exercise below. Come on.） |
