根据上下文衔接搞定公共英语阅读理解

　　过渡词是一篇英文文章中进行篇章传达和组织的重要组成部分。过度词可以表达很懂种语义关系。假如考生具备一些这方面的知识，即便是没有搞清文章的来龙去脉，也可以通过上下文的衔接猜测出下文讲的是什么。

　　更重要的是过渡词在文章中比较突出、醒目，在查证时容易找。在阅读中，如把它们圈出，答题就容易多了。因为绝大多数细节性的问题和它们有密切的联系。根据我们统计，问题中除了问大意、中心思想的，60%以上是问细节的，而只要问细节，90%以上牵涉到原因，特点，功能，理由，事实，优缺点等。而这些东西往往是用表示各种语义的过渡词来引出的。

　　根据过渡词表示的语义和逻辑关系，我们可以分类为：

　　1) 举例

　　for example, for instance, as a case in point, as an illustration, such as, say, e.g。

　　2) 释义

　　that is, that is to say, in other words, so to speak, or rather, namely

　　3) 原因

　　BECause, because of, for, as, owing to, thanks to, due to, now that, since, as a result of, attribute to, in that

　　4) 条件

　　if, unless, whether, provided that, given, as long as, on condition that, otherwise

　　5) 让步

　　despite, in spite of, though, although, nevertheless, but, however, admittedly, it is true…but, after all

　　6) 结果

　　for this reason, therefore, consequently, accordingly, hence, as a result, thus, in short, in a word, to sum up, to conclude

　　7)比较

　　similarly, like, likewise, in the same way, much……, as much, no more……, than, just as…… so

　　8)对照

　　whereas, instead, however, unlike, on the contrary, in contrast, on the other hand, while, some……, others

　　9)层进

　　first, in the first place, to begin with, second, next, in addition to, besides, moreover, furthermore, third, finally

　　10)强调

　　indeed, in fact, certainly, particularly, above all, most importantly, worst of all

　　11)目的

　　in order to, in an effort to, so as to, in order that, for fear that, in case, least

　　12)先后

　　shortly after, earlier, later, afterwards, after, before, once, meanwhile, since, until, when, while, the moment, as soon as

　　13)指示

　　this, that, these, this accounts for, this helps explain, that's why

　　如何做判断是非的题目

　　是非题也称之为正误判断题，因为问的是选项中对文章中的事实的转述是否真实，提法是否正确，文章或作者是否提及。例如：

　　Which of the following statements is (not) true-

　　Which of the following is (not) mentioned in the passage-

　　Which of the following does not explain _______ -

　　All of the following are true except ________。

　　可见，是非题一般采用三对一错，或者是三错一对的答题方式。在解答这类问题时，思路一定要清晰，看清问题再回答，问题要求圈出正确答案就别圈错误的。很多考生因为这种问题吃了大亏。
