【名师点拨】

阅读填空题：找出句子之间的连接性的词语

文章的语句间的组合，除了从语句间的意义关系分析外，还可借助句子之间的连接性词语来把握，因为连接性词语能表明这个语段句与句之间、层与层之间的基本关系是承接关系（如so, therefore, thus, hence, accordingly, consequently, as aresult等）、平列关系（如first, second, third…;firstly, secondly, thirdly…; first, next,then…; in the first place, in the second place…; for one thing, for anotherthing…;to begin with, to conclude等）、转折关系（如however, nevertheless, nonetheless, still, though, yet, in spiteof, at any rate, in any case, whoever, whatever on the contrary, in contrast,by contrast, in comparison, by comparison, conversely, otherwise等）、层递关系（如also, further, furthermore, likewise, similarly, moreover, inaddition, what’s more, too, either, neither, not…but…, not only…but also等）。比如第36小题，（承接关系）根据上句：你需要六到八周的准备时间。下句：因此，你将首先致力于它们。可知此处表达的应该是：你要了解你的弱点。故选B。比如第38小题，（转折关系）根据上句：然而，主要涉及到官方的SAT and ACT的考试书。可知此处要表达的是：事先知道你的测试。
