英语作文写作常用的连接词【三】
英语作文写作常用的连接词【四】
例证法也叫事例论证，是用令人信服的典型事例来证明自己论点正确的一种方法。它是议论文写作中最常用的一种论证方法。“事实强于雄辩”，在典型的事例面前，道理不言而喻。
要用好例证法，必须注意以下几个方面：
1、事例要典型、确凿、有影响力。一般来讲，应优先考虑著名的人物或事例，慎用校园、家庭、市井街头的琐碎事例。
2、事例的叙述要简明扼要，切忌拖泥带水，过于详细。举例是为了证明观点，不是为了弄清事实，切忌本末倒置。
3、事例切忌单一狭隘，要丰富广阔，要点面结合，古今中外相映成辉。同类事例掌握多时可考虑采用句式排比列举。
4、事例列举之后要简短分析，不能将例证法变成事例整理，忌有例无证。
5、勤于积累，精于筛选。“书到用时方恨少”，平时多读书报，摘记、剪贴是主要手段。积累多了，自然能融会贯通、左右逢源。
英语作文写作常用的连接词【五】
1。thereof
以”there”为前缀加上介词构成的词，如thereafter， thereby， therein， thereinafter， thereinbefore， thereon， thereof， thereunder， thereupon， therewith等，在文中具体指什么，需要读者依照合同的上下文来判断，因而理解起来比较复杂，请看下例：
This Agreement is written in the English language。 In case of any discrepancy between the English version and any translation thereof， the English text shall govern。 句中”the English version and any translation thereof”从上下文判断意为 “the English version and any translation of the English version”，即thereof一词代替of the English version。与以here开头的词如hereof的理解方法类似。
2。therein
该词意为in that， in that particular
context， in that respect，“在那里”，“在那点上”，“在那方面”，表示上文已提及的“合同中的”“工程中的”。如：the contract or any part thereof意为the contract or any part of the contract，合同或合同的任何部分。
3。thereto
该词意为：to that，“随附”，“附之”，如：“Contract Products” means the products specified in Appendix 2 to this Contract， together with all improvements and modifications thereof or developments with respect thereto。 句中or developments with respect thereto 意为：or developments with respect to the developments。
4。thereunder
该词意为：under that， “在其下”，“依照”，如：The Borrower fails to pay any amount payable thereunder as and when such amount shall become payable。 句中any amount payable thereunder意为any amount payable under the contract。
英语作文写作常用的连接词【六】
喻证法是用设喻来论证论点的方法。
在议论文中，设喻可以使论点更易懂、更风趣、更容易获得读者的认同。喻证法能化抽象为具体、化艰深为浅显、化枯燥为生动。
运用喻证法必须注意以下三点：
1、以小见大，就近取譬。要精选生活中细小的、人们熟悉的事物做为设喻的喻体。喻体如果不是读者常见熟知的，就达不到喻证的目的。
2、喻体不求形似，求神似。做为喻证的喻体与做为比喻的喻体不同。比喻的喻体是为了强调特征，描绘事物，侧重形似，以形比形；而喻证的喻体是为了阐发观点，以正视听，力求神似，以义取形。一定要对自己所要论争的对象和用来设喻的事物之间的对应关系进行细致入微的体味与揣摩。
3、精剖喻体，丝丝入扣。《拿来主义》中鲁迅先生的喻证法运用得是很经典的。他用“大宅子”比喻“文化遗产”；用“孱头”、“混蛋”、“废物”来批判三种对待文化遗产的错误观点和态度；用“鱼翅”、“鸦片”、“烟枪、烟灯”、“姨太太”来比喻文化遗产的几个组成部分；用“占有”、“挑选”、“创新”来说明批判继承文化遗产的三个步骤。十分贴切，浑然一体，令人信服并不由得拍案叫绝。
英语作文写作常用的连接词【七】
1。Whereas
该词意为：considering that， “鉴于”，“就（而论”，常用于合同协议书的开头段落以引出合同双方订立合同的理由或依据。如：Whereas Party A desires to use the Patented Technology of Party B to manufacture and sell the Contract Products……鉴于甲方希望利用乙方的专利技术制造并销售合同产品。
2。Whereby
该词意为：by the agreement， by the following terms and conditions，“凭此协议”，“凭此条款”，常用于合同协议书中以引出合同当事人应承担的主要合同义务。如：
A sales contract refers to a contract whereby the seller transfers the ownership of an object to the buyer and the buyer pays the price for the object。 句中a contract whereby the seller transfers……意为：a contract by which the seller transfers……
以上是对外经贸合同英语中几个典型旧体词用词方面的重要的特点，笔者希望初涉外经贸合同的教师和学生予以留意，有针对性地学习，达到事半功倍的效果；也希望进行外贸合同写作时也能把握住这几个特点，写出好的外经贸合同，顺利地进行外贸业务往来。
