雅思写作中常见10类连接词错误
连接词是雅思写作评分中至关重要的一项参考标准,它不仅直接影响着Cohesion and coherence这一项分数,还间接影响了我们grammar的得分。今天小雅哥将为各位童鞋们介绍中国学生最常用也是最常错的10个连接词和表达,希望童鞋们能在雅思作文中避免此类错误的出现哦~
雅思表达常见错误1
On the other hand一般引导对比的东西,不等于besides, furthermore, secondly
错误例子:Many young people enjoy online shopping. On the one hand, it saves time. On the other hand, it saves money.
评讲:save time和save money 是两个并列的有点,没有对比的关系,在这里童鞋们最好用firstly和 secondly来表示这一并列关系~
雅思表达常见错误2
把On the contrary误以为是In contrast的替换词
错误例子:The birth rate rose. On the contrary, the infant mortality rate dropped.
评讲:on the contrary 一般出现的语境是前面出现否定信息。这个词组基本上不用于雅思作文。这里烤鸭们要注意哦~
雅思表达常见错误3
把While, whereas误认为是in contrast的替换词
错误例子:The birth rate rose. While the infant mortality rate dropped.
评讲:while 是从属连词,要连接两个独立的句子,这里应该是“,while”或者改成“In contrast,”,烤鸭们,你们也有中招吗?
雅思表达常见错误4
Besides, furthermore, what’s more, moreover, in addition被误认为是“递进”的连接词
错误例子:Many people today choose to study in foreign countries. Besides, they can gain qualifications in foreign universities.
评讲:besides一般引导两个并列的观点,不指代因果关系,这里用“because of this”会比较合理。
雅思表达常见错误5
However常常被误认为是on the other hand的同义词
错误例子:Working from home has benefited many people. However, it can cause problems.
评讲:however一般是转折关系,也就是后面的句子意思往往代表作者的首要立场。而On the other hand一般是并列关系,也就是前后句子或者观点没有轻重之分,是并列的,一般是两个事情的对比,而不是转折。
雅思表达常见错误6
By doing this, in this way被误认为是as a result, therefore, as a consequence 等
错误例子:Many people work long hours. By doing this, they may suffer poor health.
评讲:一般by doing this, in this way都是用在人们有计划地做某个事情,最后为了达到一定目的,或者效果。那么,显然不可能后面出现不好的结果,譬如说poor health。所以小雅哥在这里建议童鞋们用As a result最好。
雅思表达常见错误7
As a result, therefore, thus, as a consequence 都是连接词,而不是连词
错误例子:Many people today prefer to use mobile phones to communicate with their friends, as a result, the face-to-face contact declines.
评讲:as a result类似于副词,没有连词的功能,所以前面要用句号或者;号~
雅思表达常见错误8
Thereby 不是therefore的替换词
错误例子:Many libraries have Internet connection now, thereby, people can do research online.
评讲:thereby的习惯用法是thereby+doing something,这个规则是不可以违反的,千万不要以为thereby用了就比therefore高大上哦
雅思表达常见错误9
In order to 一般是表示有目的地去做某个事情,要注意逻辑主语,而且一般不会用否定
错误例子:Governments should not invest in the arts, in order to save money.
评讲:烤鸭们有没有觉得这个句子用否定读起来很不通顺。Governments should cut down on the spending on the arts, in order to save money.才是正确的用法。
雅思表达常见错误10
with如果加名词,往往是表示“有了…”,后面一般不加负面的东西
错误例子:With pollution, many people will have health problems.
评讲:pollution是不好的东西,用with很怪异,用because of会好一点。
