  答題技巧:從語篇的角度判斷邏輯銜接詞是有誤

  由於改錯採用短文的形式,在具體語境或上下文中靈活運用語法和詞彙知識的能力就顯得尤為重要。因此,考生要增強語篇意識,把握語篇結構的特點,從篇章的角度對句子、段落進行深入透徹的理解,把區域性含義與文章的主旨大意結合起來判斷,從而提高判斷的準確性。

  完整的篇章中,主從句之間、句與句之間、段落之間都是銜接的。銜接詞包括連詞、連線性副詞和部分介詞,常見的如下:

  表示轉折:but, yet, however, nevertheless, nonetheless, although等。

  表示對比或選擇:whereas, while, rather than, in contrast, on the contrary, on the other hand, or, whether...or, either...or, otherwise, instead of等。

  表示原因:because, for, as, since, now ***that***等。

  表示結果或目的:so, therefore, hence, thus, consequently, accordingly, so... that,in order that, ***so*** that, lest等。

  表示並列和遞進:and, both... and, neither...nor, not only...but also, as well as, moreover, furthermore, besides, in addition等。

  表示條件:if, unless, supposing ***that***, provided/providing ***that***, only if,in case ***that***, in the event ***that***, so/as long as, on condition that assuming ***that***等。

  表示時間:when, while, as, whenever, after, before, since, till/until, not.. until, as/so long as, as often as, hardly/scarcely...when, no sooner... than, once等。

  關於真題的例子:

  真題例證1

  between school lore and nursery lore. In nursery lore a verse, learnt in early childhood, is not usually passed on again when the little listener has grown up, and has children of his own, or even grandchildren.

  ***2***____

  分析:這句話說,小聽眾長大有了孩子或孫子時,一般不會把學齡前學到的兒歌傳給別人聽。這不合常理,應把when改成until,用not...until結構表示“直到……才……”之義,說明他們要到長大成人才會把小時候學到的兒歌傳下去。

  真題例證2

  feeling of being isolated and undervalued. I knew that I had a facility with words and a power of facing unpleasant facts, and I felt that this created a sort of private world

  in which I could get my own back for my failure in everyday life. Therefore, the volume of serious-i.e. seriously intended -writing which I produced all through my childhood and boyhood would not amount to half a dozen pages. I wrote my first poem at the age of five, my mother taking it down to dictation.

  ***10***____

  分析:前面一句說到“我具有文學方面的天賦和麵對現實的能力……”,本句則說“我早年正式的文學創作加起來也不過寥寥數頁”,前面的有天賦與本句的作品少形成對比,句間的邏輯關係應為轉折,故要把表因果的Therefore改為錶轉折的Nevertheless或However。
