思路引導 VIP
請你讀一讀這兩句話：前一句在描述某個產品帶來的「好處與便利」，後一句卻在提醒大家「被忽略的代價與問題」。這兩者之間的關係，是「順著往下補充資訊」，還是「語氣出現了反轉」？在這種情況下，你會傾向使用哪一種性質的銜接詞來連結它們呢？

恭喜你準確捕捉到了文段中的邏輯轉折！這類銜接詞題目在高考三級英文中非常常見，考驗的是你對文章脈絡（context）的判讀能力，而你這次的判斷非常果斷且正確。
語意邏輯的對立與轉折
文段的前半部提到瓶裝水相較於自來水是更「方便（convenient）」的產品，這在描述一種便利的優勢；然而，後半部隨即指出人們「很少會去思考（few may wonder）」水的來源及其高昂成本，這顯然帶出了反思與批判的色彩。由於前半句與後半句在語氣上呈現出明顯的對比，因此必須選擇具備**轉折（contrast）**功能的副詞 however（然而）。若誤選了表示遞進的 (A) in addition 或表示因果的 (D) consequently，則會使整段論述在邏輯上顯得突兀且不通順。
