文章的整體性和連貫性

整體性指在短文在語義上是一個整體，幾個段落圍繞短文的一個主題。在寫作考試中，則主要指在確定了中心寫作內容後，不要跑題。連貫性指句子之間和段落之間是以合乎邏輯的方式排列的，讀起來通順流暢。短文的整體性和連貫性是通過句子和段落的邏輯排列或採用過渡詞的方式來實現的。

請看下面的短文是以邏輯排列的方式達到短文整體性和連貫性的：

Nuclear power stations are extremely dangerous. In 1979 a station in the USA went out of control and thousands of people there had to leave their homes. The waste from nuclear power stations can be dangerous to man for thousands of years ear stations are unnecessary. The demand for electricity in the West is increasing very slowly and can be met by existing stations. If extra power in needed, it should be provided by wind or tidal power stations. They are safe and there is no danger of pollution. For these reasons all work on nuclear power stations must be halted immediately.

下面的短文是採用過渡詞的方式達到短文的整體性和連貫性的:

Getting up early is good for our health. To start with, the air in the morning is fresh, which will do a lot of good to your health. Second, early in the morning you may take a walk or do some exercise, which will help to keep you healthy. Finally,getting up early will help you to form a good habit, and develop a good mood for daily activities. 為了使短文具有較好的整體性和連貫性,通常採用 “啟” “承” “轉” “合”的過渡詞
