　　阅览时，咱们能够根据阶段中出现的一些信号词(Signal Words)来判别语句与语句之间的联系，把握阶段开展头绪，来调整阅览速度，提高阅览质量。

　　1.显现一样信息的信号词：

　　There has been an upsurge of interest in chamber music. Likewise opera is receiving a boost from increased record sales.

　　“likewise”这一信号词显现了前面所说到的idea后边还要再一次出现。因而，阅览时见到这么的信号词无须怠慢阅览速度。这么的信号词还包含：

　　and, furthermore, more, than, that, also, likewise, moreover, in addition, what is more, for instance, for example

　　2.显现思路转机的信号词：

　　I’d like to go but I’m too busy.

　　“but”前后是彻底不一样的信息描绘，它向读者显现了作者的思路在这儿有了转机。阅览时，碰到这么的信号词咱们需怠慢阅览速度，以精确获取作者真实想要阐明的意思。这类信号词还有：

　　although, however, on the contrary, but, in spite of, otherwise, despite, nevertheless, yet

　　3.显现因果联系的信号词：

　　As a result of the pilots’ strike, all flights have had to be cancelled.

　　All flights have had to be cancelled as a result of the pilots’ strike.

　　一切航班被撤销的因素是因为飞行员们的停工;飞行员们的停工致使了一切的航班不得不被撤销。显现因果联系的信号词还有：

　　for, thus, because, for this reason, so, therefore, as, since, consequently

　　4.显现次序的信号词：

　　Internet speeds communication between companies, among co-workers through video-conferences, and among other individuals. First, media companies use the Internet for online news, or to broadcast audio and video, including live radio and television programs, while individuals use the Internet for communication, entertainment, finding information, buying and selling goods and services. Second, the notion of distance disappears thanks to the Internet. People also enjoy instant messaging to exchange text messages or pictures in real time, with real-time video and sound. Finally, scientists and scholars use the Internet to perform research, distribute lecture notes or course materials to students, they communicate with colleagues, and can also publish papers and articles.

　　抓住了这么的信号词就把握住了作者叙述的次序，也就分清了相对独立的论据。这么的信号词包含：

　　first, second, third, and so on, then, after, before, next, last, afterward, finally

　　5.表明定论/总结的信号词：

　　In conclusion, I would like to say how much I have enjoyed myself today.

　　词组“in conclusion”前面所说到的一些信息将在这儿被概括总结。读到带有这么的信号词或短语的语句时，应分外留心留意，它们往往会向咱们提示有关阶段的中心信息。表明定论或总结的信号词和短语还有：

　　as a result, finally, therefore, accordingly, in short, thus, consequently, in conclusion, so, in brief, in a word
