Learn about discourse markers
Use discourse markers to show relationships
Discourse markers are also known as “linking words”. They are used to show relationships between ideas. such as:
to add something (e.g. also, besides, additionally)
to show contrast (e.g. however, on the other hand)
to explain a reason (e.g. because, since)
to show a result ( e.g. therefore, as a result)
Without discourse markers, the connections between sentences and paragraphs would be less obvious.
1 however A to add something
2 since B to show contrast
3 when C to explain a reason
4 in addition to D to show an end point in time
5 in fact E to show time
6 later F to emphasize
7 eventually G to describe the order of events
Task 5 Read the article again and underline the discourse markers
Without discourse markers, the connections between sentences and paragraphs would be less obvious.
If you and your group member are going to take a long journey in China, would you also choose to travel by rail or would you choose other forms of transportation such as plane or car Please state your reasons.

Post-reading
Transport-ation Advantage Dis-advantage Suitable for
by bus cheap slow short-distance trip, especially trips within towns/cities
by airplane quick expensive long journeys between big cities
by cruise ship relaxing with nice accommod-ation and meals slow trips between coastal cities
useful expression:
If my group member and I were going on a long trip in China, We prefer to travel by.....because first of all, ..... Moreover, ....
Therefore, We believe it is a good choice.
