常见阅读考点出处之一—— 逻辑关系：转折 第一大特征：逻辑关系处出考题。 常见转折关联词有：but, however, yet, nevertheless, while（然而）, on the contrary等等。 真题再现 例1： 　A few months ago, it wasnt unusual for 47-year-old Carla Toebe to spend 15 hours per day online. Shed wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs – leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem.（2010.6, cet4 ） 1. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?　　A. The poorly managed state of her house.　　B. The high financial costs adding up.　　C.

She felt it unfair to be treated as a mere servant by professional. B. She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded her as a peon. C. She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her. D.
