该方法可以帮你明白如何剖析英语长句,以及如何运用胶水词创造自己的的长句。例如:(The bicycle track) (is) (between) (the road) (and) (the river). 这个句子所要表达的只有3个东西之间的关系,括号能帮你分清楚什么内容代表“东西”以及什么内容代表“关系”。
复杂的从句同样可以用括号法理清内部架构,从而掌握从句的逻辑和背后沟通的意思。表示承接的过渡词:also,and,and then,too,in addition,furthermore,moreover,what's more, again,on top of that,another,first,second,third,fourth等。
