根据近几年的高考《考试说明》，英语书面表达评分标准第五档（很好）中有这样的表述：“应用了较多的语法结构和词汇，语法结构或词汇方面有些许错误，但为尽力使用复杂结构或高级词汇所致。”这就是说，学生仅运用基础词汇和基本句型，并不能体现出较强的语言运用能力，这样即使表达中无语法错误，也不能得高分；相反，尽管有些许错误，但如果目的是在有意识地使用复杂结构或较高级词汇，也不会扣多少分，仍属最高档次。那么究竟如何运用高级词汇和复杂结构来写出好的文章，从而提高书面表达的档次呢？注意使用过渡词即起、承、转、合的单词和短语。
过渡词是指一个与原句无句法关系的附加部分，在句中往往起缓和词气，表明态度，看法，解释说明整个句子的作用。过渡词的位置较灵活，可置于句首, 句中或句末。
过渡词在句中是一个独立部分，是句子不可缺少的成分，它在句与句中起一个逻辑意义一致，句子之间连接承上启下的作用。同时在文章中使用好过渡词还能提高文章的档次分，句子显得逻辑性强，结构紧凑，也是语言功底好的表现。如果去掉，句子的意思就不完整，甚至不知所云。
试比较下面例句：
例1.
We must work. We must believe in ourselves.
-We must work and above all we must believe in ourselves.
例2.
I was anxious to leave. I felt that I wasn’t able to tell my grandparents that we were safe.
- On one hand, I was anxious to leave, on the other hand
I felt that I wasn’t able to tell my grandparents that we were safe.
例3.
1) To tell you the truth, life is beautiful. I have no reason to think otherwise.
2) Personally, I don’t like this painting.
可见过渡词在写作中使用得当，可以给文章增辉添彩，可以使描写更细致如微，说明文层次清楚，条分缕析，证论文说服力更强。反之，则使文章逻辑不清，显得生硬，乏味。

一些学生在作文中过多使用简单句，一篇文章下来竟成了简单句堆砌；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：
学生习作：
Is Money Everything?
I don’t think money is everything. We can’t do without it. Money can’t buy
us happiness and a good education. And money can’t buy us good health and a
long life. We can not live without money. We need it to buy many things. And
we need it to live a better life. We should learn the value of money and make the
most of its advantages.
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：
Is Money Everything?
I don’t think money is everything, but we can’t do without it. Fox example, money can’t buy us happiness and a good education. And for another example, money can’t buy us good health and a
long life.
But we can not live without money. We need it for our daily necessities such as food,
clothes and transportation. What’s more, we need it to live a better life.
In short, we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages.
修改后的文章用过渡词来衔接各句：
第一段第一句为：I don’t think money is everything, but we can’t do without it.
第二段第一句为：But we can not live without money.
第三段第一句为：In short, we should learn the value of money…
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But, But, In short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。
为了增强文章的逻辑性，同学们应学会使用过渡性词汇，因为过渡性词汇可使文章结构更紧凑，上下文更连贯，逻辑性、可读性更强。本文提到的过渡性词汇使用场合十分广阔，使用前景十分看好，只要同学们掌握其使用特点，并增强其使用意识，在绝大多数场合都可以有选择性地将其派上用场，从而为增加书面表达得分起到立竿见影的作用。 同学们可通过对近几年春夏季高考书面表达题的清理，学会如何使用过渡性词汇增加文章的连贯性。

Dear Editor．
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we have had about whether an entrance
fee should be charged for parks．
Dear editor,
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we have had about whether an entrance fee should be charged for parks. Sixty students out of one hundred think that an entrance fee should not be bought before one enters a park, for it is a place for the public to go to when they are free. If a ticket must be bought, a gate and walls have to be built for a park, which will make a city look ugly. Forty students out of one hundred think that an entrance fee should be bought before one enters a park, but that the price of the ticket should be reasonable. Money that is got from ticket selling can be used to pay the gardening workers and buy different kinds of flowers and trees. As for myself, I really think parks are good places to go to at weekends and on holidays. At the same time, we, as visitors, should pay the entrance fee when we enter a park. After all, it takes a lot of money to maintain a park in good working order. Do you agree with me, dear editor?
Yours truly,

面对当前中学生“出国热”，请你以为题，谈谈中学生出国留学的利与弊。（可以从以下几方面考虑，但不一定要面面俱到：年龄、生活经验、自理能力、生活学习费用、语言学习环境、传播民族文化、学习国外先进科学技术）
Studying Abroad in recent years, studying abroad has been popular. More and more students leave their own country to go abroad for their further education. They say that they can develop better with advanced facilities and teaching methods in those modern schools. By communicating with foreign students or staying a long time with them, a profitable experience is available to them. By the time they come back home, they are supposed to have a great advantage over the students at home in many ways. I quite agree with what they say. But one fact I’d like to remind them of is that quite a number of overseas students stay abroad disappointed as they can’t obtain what they hope for, let alone success. When they are abroad, they are helpless and have to be independent, which is quite contrary to what it is at home. They lack independence; they can’t even tell right and wrong apart, and as a result some of them even commit crimes. Therefore, whether it is good or not to study abroad depends on the individual. So take more factors into careful consideration.
上海2005高考英语满分作文
June 8th
Dear Haiqing,
I hear you are very unhappy these days because your parents can’t afford to buy you some brand-name shoes and garments you like very much. And I write you this letter to share with you what I think about this matter.
To begin with, beauty is just skin deep. Don’t you think it silly to pay so much attention to your appearance? He is a shallow person who judges others by their appearance; in the same sense, he is a shallow person who thinks that a brand-name garment can add to his glamour. So please, just forget about those brand-name things. What really matters is not whether you wear brand-name shoes or garments but whether your clothes fit you. As a student, you have to wear the school uniform on the weekdays and to be honest, you look very smart in it. Then why do you have to bother to buy the expensive brand-name things?
Secondly, I know your parents are both average workers. Hard as they work, they don’t earn much. Despite this, they do their best to give you a lot of things on demand. Look at the callus on their hands and wrinkles on their faces, how can you have the heart to ask for more than they can afford, which will surely break their hearts? Remember, parents don’t owe us expensive summer camps; they don’t owe us Sony Walkman; nor do they owe us Nike shoes, If you really want those fancy things, you should take a part-time job to contribute to their purchase rather than ask your parents for money to add to their already heavy burden. Don’t you think so?
Thirdly, we have such a wide variety of things available these days which are both nice and inexpensive. What’s the point of paying much more for those brand-name things that are not much better? My friend, take my advice, and you’ll be a wiser consumer as well as a more considerate child to your parents.
Poverty, sometimes, is a good thing. It can test a person’s character and it makes a man out of a boy faster than anything else. Keep working hard, and you are bound to be able to afford those things in the near future. Now you may as well focus on your study. Anyway, wouldn’t it be funny for a would-be achiever to be so preoccupied with brand-name things all day long?
Keep in touch.
Yours
Huangping

Report on the Survey about our School Uniform
Recently I did a survey about our school uniform. I interviewed groups of students what they thought about our school uniform. The result is as following.
60% of the students interviewed expressed their satisfaction with it. Wearing the fashionable uniform of a good colour, they can prove themselves students and feel very tidy. The uniform also shows they are equal and there is no need for them to follow the fashion. Most of them considered it to be a symbol for students.
On the contrary, about 30% of the students held different opinions. They thought it had an ugly colour and wore uncomfortably. Besides, they thought it unfashionable and had a dull style.
10% had no idea about it.
In general, our school uniform is popular with most of the students, but it still needs some improvement.
人们总以为淡水是取之不尽的，实际上淡水资源是很有限的。请谈谈你的看法。
A Suggested Version:
It is generally believed that there is a good supply of fresh water. But to our disappointment, the fact is just the opposite.
As we can see, the world population is growing rapidly day by day. So enough fresh water is needed to feed such a big population. What’s more, with the development of industry, factories and vehicles produce poisonous gases or wastes, which consequently results in the pollution of water. Though fresh, a good amount of it can no longer be used. Only quite limited fresh water resource is available to human beings. So it＇s high time for us human beings to take quick action to protect water resource. Stop pollution and save water, otherwise, we cannot survive on the earth.
With fresh water, the world will be prosperous.

A Suggested Version:
June 3 ,2005
Dear Editor,
Recently, our class has had a heated discussion about whether the Beijing Zoo should be moved out of the city. Some of my classmates are in favor of the move. They say large crowds of tourists to the zoo will result in traffic jams. They also say that once moved animals will have more space and better living conditions in the suburbs. However, other students are against the idea, saying that the Beijing Zoo, built in 1906, has a history of 100 years, and is well –known at home and abroad. So it should remain where it is .What’s more, moving may cause the death of some animals .To move or not ,this is a big decision which has to be made by people in Beijing.
Yours truly,

参考答案及解析
1．B．本题考生极易错选A或C。That’s all.意思是“就这此”，表示讲话或文章的结束，而That’s all right.意思是“行、可以、没关系”。That’s it.为固定搭配，意思是“这正是所需要的。”
2．C．表示“请求别人帮忙”时用Excuse me.
3．A．to tell you the truth 为固定搭配，意思是“说实话”，为插入语，不与句子的主语形成逻辑关系。
4．C．本题上文说“你们差不多快做完了吧？”下文说“恰好相反，我们才刚刚开始。”
5．A．by and by为固定搭配，相当于soon，意思是“不久”。one by one意思是“一个接一个地”。after a while过一会儿。long before很久以前，因此B，C，D都不合题意。
6．B．except that后跟从句，而except for和besides后跟名词或V-ing短语。
7．C．在职四个选项中只有for example可以用作手入语，而且位置也比较灵活。D有较大干扰性。但such as后必须跟宾语。
8．C．本题主要部分为who is the best football player in your city.插入语to you think.
9．D．插入语to one’s surprise的意思是 “令某人吃惊的是“， 其他选取项句子结构有错误。
10．C．whether…or…的意思是“不管……还是”。
11．A．插入语As is well known为定语从句，意思是“众所周知”。
12．D．插入语therefore在此表示前后的因果关系。
13．B．as matter of fact意思是“事实上”。
14．C．插入语on earth的意思是“究竟、到底”， 用于疑问句或否定句中。
15．C．插入语in other words意思是“换句说”，是对前文的解释。
16．B本句话的意思是“即使他的书法不比他哥哥好，起码也跟他的哥哥一样好”。插入语if not better than在句中起到连词的作用。
17．B．fortunately是一句评述性语言，表达说话人的看法。
18.Cwhat’s more 意思是“更有甚者”，在本句中，说话人强调“迷路”的原因是It was raining heavily 和It was getting dark.
19．A．插入语to tell you the truth 意思是“说实话”。
20．C．插入语generally speaking意思是“一般来说”，指常规。
21．C．as well as意思是“以脑”。在本句中谓语动词由Lily来决定。若选A则谓语用复数。
22．A。above all意思是“首先”或“首要的是”， 指突出要做的事情。after all意思是“毕竟、别忘了”。at all意思是“根配合 然”。显然其他答案不合题意。
23．。personally意思是“依我看”。
24．A．本句是询问别人的看法，插入语do you think也可以放在句中，即Who do you think has more money at present?
25．B．or rather意思是“更准确性确地说”。
26．B．that is 即that is to say是对前一句的解释，意思是“那说是”。
27.A. judging from 为固定搭配，其中judge不与后面的主语形成逻辑关系。
28．C．as a result意思“因而”， 前后为因果关系。
29．B．I think 表示说话者的看法。
30．D．as far as 或so far as作插入语，意思是“据……”。
31．A．插to start with为固定搭配，意思是“首先、第一点”。
32．C．worse still意思是“更糟的是”， 是一种递进的表达法。
33．A。above all意思是“首先”，本句的意思是“我们最需要的是你的支持。”
34．A．all in all为插入语，意思是“总的来说”。
35．B．本句话的意思是“我们最好去买点东西，别忘了，你的生日只有两星期了。”After all用于句首表示提醒。

答案与解析：
1.答案〖〗But解析〖〗开篇第一句话打了双引号，显然这是一句对于老师公认的至高无上的评价，但根据空格后面的内容，我们可以推断出学生对于教师这一职业的态度并不像引语中说的那么积极。因此这里我们用一个转折连词but.
2.答案〖〗for解析〖〗社会上既然将老师这一职业大加赞赏，为什么和老师接触最多的学生们不愿意选择这样的未来呢？这是每一位读者都迫切想知道的事情，空格后面的内容就是对这一问题做出的解释。根据空格的位置（for在接表原因的句子时只能放在主句后面）和意思，我们用表原因的for.
3.答案〖〗even解析〖〗人们不想当老师的原因已经很清楚了，这里作者还想进一步介绍老师在物质方面的窘迫，所以谈到了乡村教师，在此要表达一种强调语气更还的意思，我们使用副词even，此处是even与比较级连用表示比……更加比……还要的意思。
4.答案〖〗Yet解析〖〗虽然，尽管如此。大家是否注意到该段第一个词后紧接着就是一个标点符号，我们通过观察发现被标点隔开的空格中需要的不是起关键作用的主语或其它句子中的重要成分，因此它要么是一个呼语，要么就是个修饰全句的副词或连词，如果是呼语或副词，在此文讲不通道理，那么它应该是一个承接上文、引领下文的连词，且该词有强调的语气。最后想为大家补充一点的是，在正式文体中，当yet表示迄今这一意思时，需与现在完成时动词连用，而不能使用一般过去时动词，如：（1）He hasn’t started yet.（正确）（2）He didn’t start yet.（错误）
5.答案〖〗Unfortunately解析〖〗该段第一句话有些长，但在句子的主干部分没有空格出现，因此在我们理解句意时不会有太大偏差。第五个空格应该是一个承上启下的单词，在此它若是一个副词更合理些，这里我们根据句意，使用unfortunately，现在举个例子来体会一下该词的用法：Unfortunately， the show was one of the dullest we have ever seen.不幸得很，这次演出是我们所见过的最乏味的演出。
6.答案〖〗despite解析〖〗本词意思是：尽管，即使。该空格引领的句子是对主句的补充说明，这里主要表达的意思是，尽管中国有着悠久的重视教育的传统，但其前景仍不慎明朗。在这半句中我们再来巩固一个词组，put （offer， place， set）a premium on重视，促进，鼓励。
7.答案〖〗Although解析〖〗为了能够和句子中的yet相呼应，同时兼顾文章的内容，这里我们选用although一词。该词用在主句中，可与副词yet，nevertheless等连用，但不能与but连用，这是一个与我们的汉语相悖的用法，希望大家在使用时特别留心。
