我们今天会给同学们讲“无词阅读”，主要针对阅读看不懂的情况。看不懂，可以通过表示方向的关系词来发现一段文字的主旨。接下来请看雅思内容：雅思阅读读不懂，无词阅读是个好伙伴!
无词阅读
首先，让我们来看这个句子：
Research studies lend strong support to the argument that there are benefits for families considering a change to a fairer or more equitable division of the pleasures and pains of family life. Greater equality in the performance of family work is associated with lower levels of family stress and higher self-esteem, better health, and higher marital satisfaction for mothers. There is also higher marital satisfaction for fathers, especially when they take more responsibility for the needs of their children – fathers are happier when they are more involved (Russell 1984).
这句话并不长，但是让我们再半分钟内说出这段话在讲什么恐怕是有点难度。但其实并非如此，在句子中benefits是个正向词，lower levels of family stress, higher…, better health, higher… satisfaction等都是正向词，higher satisfaction, happier等也都是正向词。由此可以发现这段话的主旨。
常见的表示方向的关系有如下几大类：
表示前后方向相反：
转折关系： but/however/yet, on the other hand, despite
对比关系： more/less…than…, unlike
表示前后方向相同：
并列关系： A and B, not…nor…, first, second, third
递进关系： moreover, in addition/additionally/besides, not only…but also…
