比较型作文之11分作文

比较型作文一般分为说明式比较和议论式比较两种。说明式比较在比较过程中，作者不发表个人意见，在文中不体现个人取向，单纯以说明介绍为目的。

在四、六级考试中的比较型作文多以议论式比较的形式出现。议论式比较以比较事物优劣、阐明自己立场为目的，一般分为倾向型和中立型两种类型。

11分作文只是在8分作文的基础上进行改进，通过篇章的连贯、句型的优化来实现。

一、连贯性

连贯性是写作的一个重要原则。句子之间的链接主要通过衔接词的使用体现连贯性，根据过渡衔接词在篇章中的作用，可分为引介词、承接词和总结词三大类：

1. 引介词在篇章中担当引出话题或观点的作用，根据其本身的含义，可细分如下：

（1）时间词（组）：nowadays,at present,recently,now ,lately,in some cases.
（2）一般观点词（组）：in general,generally,generally spraking,as we know,as is known to all,as is generally accepted,regarding,concerning,as for... as to ..., as regards.
（3）个人观点词（组）：firstly,first of all ,in the firest place, to begin with , to start with , for one thing, as for me, in my opinion, on the one hand.

2.承接词在篇章中承接主题句或上一个支持句，可表递进或转折，根据其本身的含义，可分如下：

纯粹承接词：second(ly),third(ly),for another,on the other hand.
递进承接词：besides,in addition, in addition to ,furthermore,moreover,namely.
并列承接词：meanwhile,at the same time.
原因承接词：because,for , as, in that,owing to,due to ,on accout of,on the groud of , as a result of.
比较承接词：equally important,similarly,likewise,in the same way,in common.
对比承接词：on the contrary, in contrast , by contrast , whereas,instead, conversely.
强调承接词：in paricular, paricularly,most important of all,needless to say,especially,above all,on top of all this.
转折让步承接词：although,though,nevertheless, however,but,yet , admittedly, it is true... but, in spite of , even though, granted that , despite, in spite of , unfortunately,nonetheless.

总结词在篇章中推出结论和后果：

(1) 结果词：thus , consequently,hence, therefore, accordingly,as a consequence, for this reason.
(2) 总结词：in a word, all in all ,to sum up, briefly,in brief,in short,in summary,undoubtedly,by and large , as has been noted.

具有相似意义和功能的衔接词在上下文可以灵活替换。
