USING CONNECTIVES IN CONVERSATXON怎样在谈话中使用起连接作用的词语

下列词语在会话中可以起连接作用。这些词语有助于谈话顺利进行。有的可以用来填补空当儿，有的可以用来进一步说明意思。
IN FACT
为了加强前面一句话，可以用in fact引出一句话，对有关话题进一步提供情况。
in fact引出的这句话往往更为具体生动。
I had to take my son to soccer practice.
In fact. we went to the Grand Final as well．
I bought some rice，In fact,I bought four kilos.
MIND YOU
用来引出一句话，对前面一句话加以限制，以免造成误解，或引起争论。
One day of soccer's enough for me.
Mind you, I always enjoy it．
BY THE WAY（参看第8讲）
用来引出新的话题。有时可以与前面一句话相关联（见下面第一个例子），有时只表示“顺便提到一件事”，和前面的话并不相干（见下面第二个例子）。
1) Everyone likes Brett Watson.
By the way, he's just written a book about soccer．
2) A: Wasn't the weather great yesterday?
B: Yes,it certainly was.
A: Oh,by the way,did you see that Chinese film last night?
IMEAN（参看第22讲）
如果你觉得没有把意思说清楚，就可以用这个短语引出一句话，补充新的内容，加以说明。
I don't think I'll sit with you two on Mondays. I mean all I
hear is soccer, soccer, soccer!
I MUST SAY
这个短语可以使对方注意下面的话是比较强调的。
Well, I must say the Grand Final was, exciting.
YOU KNOW（参看第1讲）
这个短语可以使说话人略有停顿，以便考虑下面的话怎样说。
My boy thinks Watson is…er…
you know…marvellous．
