一、關係詞的定義和分類
關係詞,即體現句子之間關係的詞或詞組。也有不少人稱之為信號詞,或者是連接詞。不管在雅思聽說讀寫四門中的任何一門都需要用到這類詞,以使得句子更加流暢,句意更加明晰。分析認為,關係詞可非分兩大類:
1. 同向關係詞
同向關係詞,即用上此類詞或詞組,句子內部或句子間的方向沒有發生改變,只是根據前面的句意進一步延伸和細化。將其歸納為:
舉例關係詞:for example, for instance, e.g., such as, like, take sth. for example
類比關係詞:like, alike, similar, same, as
選擇,並列和遞進關係詞:or, either…or, and, as well, also, besides, apart from, in addition, what’s more, furthermore, moreover (分號;)
因果關係詞:
表示由引起的,後接原因的詞或詞組:because,because of,as a result of, as a consequence of, due to, result from, be attributed to, be contributed to, arise from, owing to, thanks to, in that
表示導致,後接結果的詞或者詞組:so, therefore, thus, as a result, as a consequence, lead to, result in, attribute to, contribute to, give rise to, bring about, generate
總結關係詞:in conclusion, to conclude, to sum up, in sum, all in all, in brief
2. 逆向關係詞:
逆向關係詞,即用上此類詞或詞組,句子內部或句子間的方向發生改變,前後句子意思形成相反關係。總結髮現,這類詞包含:
否定關係詞:not, none, no, never, non-, dis-, un-, in-, im-, -less, few, little, hardly, barely, seldom, neither…nor
