一小伙伴求助：如何提高雅思写作考试成绩？问题在于语法，求有效在半年内显著提高语法能力的方法和书籍。（目标7.0分，现在实力5.0分）

雅思考试大牛神总结：已写作7.0分，送大家“史上最全逻辑连接词”！

这是自己备考雅思过程中总结的，也附带了一些常用词组与句式。其中，不少是从英文原著中总结的地道表达，比如《Justice, what's the right thing to do》。

尤其是逻辑连接词，掌握后，就达到了“独上高楼，望尽天涯路”的境界，之后就用起来随心所欲不逾矩了。

因为雅思作文重在论述，论述重在逻辑，逻辑的表现就是逻辑连接词。灵活而不重样地使用这些词汇，既代表着语法的游刃有余，也代表着逻辑的清晰明了。

PART 1 逻辑连接词

1.1 让步

1. Although（更书面）= though（更口语） =even if （即使，更偏假设性）=even though（虽然，更偏事实性）+句子

注：不能与but连用。

2. No matter how/what/who等= 疑问句+ever

No matter who/Whoever you are, you must keep the law.

注意：疑问句+ever 可以引导名词性从句

Whoever（≠ no matter who）comes will be welcome.

3. …, as long as…

7. Despite+n/ving = in spite of 尽管. （不能加句子）
