学习雅思阅读的同学知道，在审题的过程中，除了要确定该题目的定位词，还要快速判断这道题中的考查要点，也就是所谓的“考点”。雅思阅读中不同体型的考点会稍有不同，但是对题目核心考点的解读是相同的。这里新通河南韩老师重点介绍逻辑关系词考点，其中以因果逻辑关系为主。

一个句子的表现主要有语义和逻辑两层含义，按照雅思考试的同义转换的理念，题目和原文基本表达语义的词或词组一般都会有变化，而逻辑关系却不会也不能改变。但是表示逻辑关系的词不只一个，所以逻辑关系词会有同义转换。这里列出常用的因果关系词。

显性因果

因：because，because of， for ，as，since，in that，on account of

果：so，so that，therefore，thereby，as a result，hence，thus，consequently，accordingly

因果关系除了传统意义上的显性因果表达词外，隐形的因果同样是不可忽略的一个重要部分。

隐形因果：

①导致（因-果）：cause，reason，lead to，give rise to，result in， render，make，let，ask，support，push，stimulate，spark，spur，fuel，produce，be responsible for

②由...而来（果-因）：result from，derive from，originate from，initiate from，stem from，be responsive to，be attributable to

③反映，体现（果-因）：reflect，present，demonstrate，suggest，imply，show

This result demonstrates that...

④考虑到：given，considering，in view of，thanks to，according to

He succeeded thanks to（in view of）his effort.

⑤依赖于：rely on，depend on，resort to，

He resorted to books when he had problems.

⑥条件关系：when，once，as soon as，as long as

As soon as he got the money，he would leave the country at once.

⑦分词短语，不定式做状语

Failing in the final exam， she cried.

现在看一些因果关系在雅思阅读判断题目中的考察。

例1，题目The growing importance of the middle classes led to an increased demand for dictionaries.

原文: The rise of dictionaries is associated with the rise of the English middle class.

答案：TRUE

例2：题目Some pollution problems have been correctly linked to industrialization.

原文：Most forms of environmental pollution either appear to have been exaggerated, or are transient---associated with the early phases of industrialization.

答案：YES

例3题目：The percentage of Gross National Product spent on education generally reflects the level of attainment in mathematics.

原文：The percentage of Gross National Product spent on education is reasonably similar in the two countries, so how is this higher and more consistent attainment in maths achieved?

答案：NO

例4，题目Yessis links an inadequate diet to  .

原文：Few coaches, for instance, understand how deficiencies in trace mineral can lead to injuries.

答案：injuries

例5，题目this is largely due to developments in     17   , but other factors such as improved  18       may also be playing a part.

原文：clearly， certain diseases are beating a retreat in the face of medical advances. But there may be other contributing factors. Improvements in childhood nutrition in the first quarter of the twentieth century, for example, gave today’s elderly people a better start in life than their predecessors.

答案：14 medicine，15

通过以上例子得出因果关系在雅思阅读的考察中非常重要。除了传统意义上的显性因果表达词外，隐形的因果同样是不可忽略的一个重要部分。
