在寫作時若想要連接下一段句子，或是增加句子的豐富性，大家都知道可以使用連接詞。不過如果常用and, but, so, because 這些連接詞，文章不免會顯得乏味。其實還有很多[連接性副詞]和[相關連接詞]，也有和 and, but, so, because 等大家熟悉的連接詞相近的含意。學習使用不同的連接詞，會讓你寫出來的句子更流暢也更生動 !
以下的例句，使用和 and, but, because, so 意思相近的連接詞或連接性副詞改寫，希望大家看了後會更有概念。
1. 和 and 意思相近：also, besides, likewise, furthermore ,moreover, not only… but also 等等。
I like reading and watching movies. 這句話用其他的連接詞或連接性副詞，要如何改寫呢？
*** I like reading, also watching movies.
*** Besides reading, I like watching movies.
*** I like reading, watching movies likewise.
*** I like reading books, furthermore ( moreover) novels.
*** I like not only reading, but also watching movies.
我們也來看看這些連接詞或連接性副詞的其他例句：
Also: I am 28 years old. Helen is also.
Besides: It rains heavily. Besides, the roads are nearly impassable.
Likewise: To achieve your goal, you must have ambition; likewise you need to exert more efforts.
Furthermore ( moreover ) : Bicycling is a good exercise ; furthermore ( moreover ), it doesn’t pollute the air .
Not only…but also: The car not only is economical but also feels good to drive.
2. 和 but意思相近：however, still, nevertheless, conversely…… 等。
He is handsome but I don’t like him. 這句話用其他的連接詞或連接性副詞，要如何改寫呢？
*** He is handsome. However, I don’t like him.
*** He is handsome, still I don’t like him.
*** He is handsome; nevertheless, I don’t like him.
*** He is a handsome man; conversely, he is not smart.
其他例句：
However: I feel a bit tired. However, I can hold on.
Still: The hotel was terrible. Still, we were lucky with the weather.
Nevertheless: She was angry; nevertheless, she listened to me.
Conversely: My mother prefers to keep a cat at home; conversely, my father likes to have a dog.
3. 和 because / because of 意思相近： because ［因為］，是連接詞，意思相近的有 due to the fact that, for the reason that。有一個大家也常用的because of，是介係詞片語，意思相近的有 by reason of, resulting from。
以下含有because 或because of的句子，一樣試試用不同的字詞替換。
He passed the test because he really studied hard.
*** He passed the test due to the fact that (for the reason that) he really studied hard.
The poor stray dog finally had a new home because of Mary’s kindness.
*** The poor stray dog finally had a new home resulting from (by reason of) Mary’s kindness.
4. 和 so意思相近的有 accordingly, consequently, therefore
So 的意思為［所以，因此］，表示因果關係。
Peter lowered his voice so his mother couldn't hear. 也試著用連接性副詞來改寫吧！
*** Peter lowered his voice. Accordingly, his mother couldn’t hear.
*** Peter lowered his voice; therefore, his mother couldn’t hear.
最後要提醒大家的是，只有連接詞可以連接兩個句子。所以用連接性副詞時，要用分號 ( ; ) 來隔開兩個句子。 例如: He seems to study rarely; nevertheless, he always gets the highest score in the class.或者用句號 ( . ) 結束上一個句子，再用連接性副詞開始新的句子。例如: The cost of transportation is a major expense for an industry. Hence, factory location is an important consideration.
