常见的表示方向的关系有如下几大类： 表示前后方向相反： 转折关系： but/however/yet, on the other hand, despite 对比关系： more/lessthan, unlike 表示前后方向相同： 并列关系： A and B, notnor, first, second, third 递进关系： moreover, in addition/additionally/besides, not onlybut also 那么请大家来做一个练习： Managerial and executive progress made by women is confirmed by the annual survey of boards of directors carried out by Korn /Ferry /Carre /Orban International. This year the survey shows a doubling of the number of women serving as non-executive directors compared with the previous year. However, progress remains painfully slow and there were still only 18 posts filled by women out of a total of 354 non-executive positions surveyed. Hilary Sears, a partner with Korn /Ferry, said, Women have raised the level of grades we are employed in but we have still not broken through barriers to the top. 上面一段话，完全可以浓缩成以下内容： progressdoubling of the numberHoweverpainfully slowraised the level of gradesbutnot broken through 也就是说，从两次出现however/but这种转折关系词来看，这一段话一直采用的是一种对比结构，分别论述了妇女找工作的好坏两方面。怎么样，你能否仅仅用30秒钟完成阅读? |
