写英语作文、做听力题,或者日常口语表达时,我们总会用到各种“引导词”,也就是连接句子、表达逻辑的关键小词。比如你熟悉的:because、so、although、if...
 但如果你只会这几个,那就太基础了!掌握更多地道的引导词,不但能让句子更自然,还能加分不少。


一、什么是引导词?

引导词(Linking Words / Conjunctions)就是用来连接句子、说明前后关系的词,作用就像中文里的“因为”“所以”“但是”“如果”“即使”等等。

✅ 有了引导词,句子才不会“断气”
✅ 表达才有逻辑、顺畅、地道


二、最常用的引导词分类梳理

1. 表示因果关系:因为 / 所以

  • because(因为)
    I stayed home because it was raining.(我因为下雨而待在家)

  • since(既然/因为)
    Since you’re here, let’s start.(既然你来了,那我们开始吧)

  • as(因为)
    As I was tired, I went to bed early.(因为我累了,所以早睡)

  • so(所以)
    It was late, so we went home.(时间晚了,所以我们回家了)

2. 表示转折对比:但是 / 虽然 / 然而

  • but(但是)
    I wanted to go, but I was too busy.(我想去,但太忙了)

  • although / though(虽然)
    Although he is young, he’s very smart.(虽然他很年轻,但很聪明)

  • even though(即使)
    Even though it was raining, we went out.(即使下雨,我们还是出门了)

  • however(然而)
    She was tired. However, she kept working.(她很累,但还是继续工作)

3. 表示条件:如果 / 只要 / 除非

  • if(如果)
    If it rains, we’ll cancel the trip.(如果下雨就取消旅行)

  • unless(除非)
    I won’t go unless you come with me.(除非你和我一起去,否则我不去)

  • as long as(只要)
    As long as you work hard, you’ll succeed.(只要你努力,就会成功)

4. 表示目的 / 结果

  • so that(为了)
    I study hard so that I can pass the test.(我努力学习为了通过考试)

  • in order that(为了)
    He spoke loudly in order that everyone could hear.(他大声说话好让大家听见)

5. 表示时间:当...时 / 之后 / 直到

  • when(当...时候)
    When I arrived, she was leaving.(我到的时候,她正要走)

  • while(当...同时)
    He was singing while cooking.(他一边做饭一边唱歌)

  • after / before(在...之后/之前)
    Call me after you arrive.(你到之后打给我)

  • until(直到)
    Wait here until I come back.(等我回来)


三、提升表达力的万能连接词

下面这些连接词能大大提升你写作和说话的逻辑性,让表达更“高级”:

  • first / firstly / first of all(首先)

  • then / next(然后)

  • finally / at last(最后)

  • for example / such as(例如)

  • in fact(事实上)

  • on the other hand(另一方面)

  • as a result(结果)

例句:
 Firstly, we need more data. Then, we can decide.
 On the other hand, this plan might cost more.


四、小测验:你能选对吗?

  1. I didn’t go to the party __________ I was sick.
    A. because B. so C. but

  2. You can go out __________ you finish your homework.
    A. unless B. as long as C. although

  3. __________ it was cold, we went swimming.
    A. Because B. Although C. So

答案:
 ✅ 1. A — because(我没去派对,因为我生病了)
 ✅ 2. B — as long as(只要你写完作业,就可以出门)
 ✅ 3. B — although(虽然天气冷,我们还是去游泳了)


五、这些引导词,口语中怎么说才地道?

口语里我们常常会更随意一些,有些引导词会有“简化版”或者“替代表达”,比如:

  • 'cause = because
    I’m late 'cause I missed the bus.(我迟到了因为错过了公交)

  • though = although(常放句末)
    Nice weather. Cold, though.(天气不错,就是冷)

  • so 直接开头
    So, what do you think?(所以你怎么看?)

✅ 小贴士:
 ✦ 口语中不要总是用 because,偶尔用 'cause 会更自然
 ✦ though 放在句末显得更地道
