雅思閱讀信號詞一：順接和遞進(jìn)

　　例詞：also, furthermore, moreover, what is more, in addition…

　　考點(diǎn)：And Western scientists are starting to draw on this wisdom…(C6, P28, T31找標題)

　　解析：And在這句話(huà)開(kāi)頭，有一定的遞進(jìn)含義， this wisdom則是指代了前面一句話(huà)出現的their wealth of traditional knowledge(因紐特人傳統的知識)，所以這兩句話(huà)有緊密的聯(lián)系，同學(xué)們在讀題的時(shí)候要通過(guò)發(fā)現信號詞，然后發(fā)散地看它的前后句，最后把考點(diǎn)考察的意思補充完整。

　　雅思閱讀信號詞二：對比和轉折

　　例詞：however, but, although, nevertheless, on the other hand, by comparison…

　　考點(diǎn)：However, we believe that credit must be extended in association with other types of support that help participants develop critical life skills as well as productive businesses.(C4, P66, T13主旨選擇題)

　　題目中出現了conclude的字眼，總結段落一般是在文章的最后，然而帶有轉折信號詞however這句話(huà)，顯然就是文章的考點(diǎn)所在。

　　雅思閱讀信號詞三：相似

　　例詞：similarly, in other words, that is, put another way…

　　考點(diǎn)：In other words, we became aware of the obvious fact that there were'limits to growth'.(C4, P97, T32分類(lèi)題)

　　解析：In other words是解釋?zhuān)瑩Q一種說(shuō)法，通常會(huì )以更加簡(jiǎn)單易懂，清晰的話(huà)語(yǔ)陳述出難點(diǎn)，常常難點(diǎn)就是雅思閱讀考點(diǎn)出沒(méi)的地方。

　　雅思閱讀信號詞四：時(shí)間先后

　　例詞：firstly, second, next, then, now, later, since, eventually, finally…

　　考點(diǎn)：Three factors are involved in this change. First is an awareness of the severity of the problem. Second, a number of resources to help tackle bullying have become available in Britain…Third, there is evidence that these materials work, and that schools can achieve something.(C6, P94, T30選標題)

　　解析：段落結構很清楚，主要是因為有表達順序的信號詞First、second、third,讓我們認識這段是在講，侍強凌弱這種現象已經(jīng)開(kāi)始改變，主要是從三個(gè)方面入手：意識、資源、監督。這種發(fā)展讓學(xué)校有了更多的方法和有效途徑解決存在的問(wèn)題。這里的First、second、third提示我們三個(gè)方面，同時(shí)也是一個(gè)發(fā)展的過(guò)程。
