二、过渡词的应用实例
有的学生在作文中使用过多的简单句,成了简单句的堆砌;有的写复杂句时,动辄用so, and, then, but, or, however, yet等,这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来出现丰富句型,把思想表达得更清楚,意义更连贯。例如: 1. 学生习作 TV and website
TV and website are popular media. They have something in common. Both of them make 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 reporters 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 reporters.
Every medium has its own features. It is hard to say which is better.
这段文字多用简单句来表达,它们之间内在的逻辑关系含糊不清,意思支离破碎。如果合理使用过渡词,将单句前后合并,形成主次关系,就能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 website
Both 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 different 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 changes all the time, but not all of it is so updated. In addition, everybody can write articles for websites rather than professional reporters.
In a word, every medium has its own features, so it is hard to say which is better.

范文:
Shall we send children to study abroad?
With more and more people becoming rich in recent years, it is a new tendency for them to send their children to study abroad. But I don’t think it is a good idea. First of all, children are too young to look after themselves. Second, the language barrier is a serious problem. Many children are not proficient in the foreign language before going abroad. As a result, they have difficulty in understanding what the native speakers are talking about. Third, they may get into trouble when dealing with various
situations for lack of knowledge of the customs in the strange land. Furthermore, the cost of living is much higher than that in our country, which might cause a heavy burden to the family.
In conclusion, there are more disadvantages in sending children to study abroad. So, we’d better not do it.
