2、过渡词是一种关系指引词，一般由副词或起副词作用的短语承担。此外，代词、连词、上下文的近义词等也可作过渡词。过渡词能使文章启、承、转、合，融会贯通，连成一体。一、过渡词的分类1. 根据意思和作用的不同，过渡词可以分为以下十五类：（1 ）表并列关系的过渡词:and, also， as well, as well as， or, too, not onlybut also, both and, either or, neithernor（2 ）表递进关系的过渡词: besides, in addition（加之，除之外）, moreover(此外，而且), whats more， whats wor

7、r way（10）表进行举例说明的过渡词: for instance, for example, like, such as （11）表陈述事实的过渡词: in fact, actually, as a matter of fact, to tell you the truth （12）表强调的过渡词: certainly, indeed, above all, surely, most important, in fact, no doubt, without any doubt, truly, obviously（13）表比较的过渡词：like, unlike, in the same w

9、是开头 , “承”是承接， “转”是转折， “合” 是综合或总结。（1 ）用于“ 启”的过渡词语 用于表示“启”的过渡词或过渡性的语句通常用在段落或文章的开头：first, first of all, at first, in the first place, firstly, to being with, to start with, recently, now, at present, in recent years, in general, generally speaking, at present, lately, currently, It is often said that,
10、As the proverb says, It goes without saying that, It is clear/obvious that, Many people often ask （2 ）用于“ 承”的过渡词语 表示“ 承”的过渡词或过渡性的语句通常用在段落中的第一个扩展句中：second, similarly, in addition, besides, then, furthermore, moreover, what is more, what is worse, for example, for instance, certainly, surely, obviousl
11、y, in other words, especially, particularly, in particular, indeed, still, third, truly, in fact, at the same time, no doubt，It is true that,Everybody knows that,It can be easily proved that,No one can deny thatThe reason why is that ,There is no doubt that,To takefor an example (instance) ,We know
12、that,What is more serious is that（3 ）用于“ 转”的过渡词语 用于“ 转”的过渡词或过渡性的语句通常用在段落中的第二个扩展句中：but, however, on the other hand, on the contrary, in contrast, in any case, at any rate(无论如何), nevertheless(虽然如此), otherwise, or, or else, while, whereas, but, despite, in spite of ., yet, instead,I do not believe that
13、,Perhaps youll ask whyThis may be true, but we still have a problem with regard to,Though we are in basic agreement with , yet differences will be found, Thats why I feel that（4 ）用于“ 合”的过渡词语 用于“ 合”的过渡词或过渡性的语句通常用在段落的结论句或文章的结论段中：in a word, in general, in short, above all, after all, generally speaking

15、, this is the reason why we must二、过渡词的应用 有的学生在作文中使用过多简单句，成了简单句堆砌；有的写复杂句时，动辄用 so， and，then ，but ，or，however，yet 等非但达不到丰富表达方式的目的，反而使句子结构松散、呆板。为了避免这种现象，可以通过使用不同的过渡词,不仅能够丰富句型，而且还能够把思想表达得更清楚，意义更连贯。例如： 1. 学生习作TV and websiteTV and website are popular media. They have something in common. Both of them make
16、money from ads. Websites also have different sections. You may choose the one you are most interested in. They are different in many ways. Moving pictures are shown on TV with sound and interpretation. It makes you feel that you are just on the spot. The programs change every day. Professional TV re
17、porters do the report for TV. Some information on websites change all the time. Not all of it is so updated. Everybody can write articles for websites rather than professional reporter. Every medium has its own features. It is hard to say which is better. 这段文字用简单句表达，它们之间内在的逻辑关系含糊不清，意思支离破碎。如果使用过渡词，将单
18、句与其前后合并，形成主次关系，就把一个比较复杂的内容和关系表达得层次清楚、结构严谨。修改后的文章： TV and websiteBoth TV and website are popular media. They have something in common. Both of them make money from ads. Similar to TV, websites also have different sections, so that you may choose the one you are most interested in. However, they are d
19、ifferent in many ways. Above all, moving pictures are shown on TV with sound and interpretation, which makes you feel as if you are just on the spot. Then, the programs change every day and professional TV reporters do the report for TV. Unlike TV, some information on websites change all the time, b
20、ut not all of it is so updated. In addition, everybody can write articles for websites rather than professional reporter.In a word, every medium has its own features, so it is hard to say which is better. 修改后的文章用过渡词来衔接上下段第一段第一句为：Both TV and website are popular media. They have something in common.第二
21、段第一句为：However, they are different in many ways.第三段第一句为：In a word, every medium has its own features这篇短文每一段的第一句都是主题句，在每个主题句前使用Bothand, However, In a word 使全文有序地衔接起来。如果在文章中再恰当使用其他的过渡词，会使文章增色很多。 （见上文）我们常常遇到这样的作文题目，如：发展私人轿车的利与弊、科学发明的利与弊、网上购物的利与弊。这些题目常常是谈论一个事物的两个方面，这时只要使用表示转折的过渡词就能很好地连接上下段。As a new way o
22、f shopping, online shopping is becoming more and more popular in our daily life. Online shopping has many disadvantages. First, online shopping makes it easier for us to buy things. Instead of searching a crowded store, we just need to watch the computer screen and choose the things we like. Second,
23、 it is much faster for us to do shopping. We dont have to spend a lot of time going to shops. Third, we can see a great deal of goods shown on the computer screen at the same time. However, online shopping is not so perfect. The pictures of goods shown on the computer screen are not always what they
24、 are. As a result, we can be cheated easily. Whats worse, we can not see the things in detail. Despite the disadvantages of online shopping, I think it is an advanced way to do shopping. So we should develop it.2.四六级作文题我们主要看一下四六级作文题中过渡词的使用:假定你是李华，正在英国牛津参加短期语言培训，计划星期天去伦敦旅游。互联网上一则广告引起了你的注意，但一些具体信息不明确（
