1. Despite the above research findings which show……, there are still concerns over_______. As paragraph __ indicates, …
雖然以上研究數據顯示⋯⋯,但⋯⋯的顧慮仍然存在。
Example:

儘管研究結果顯示經濟形勢正在好轉,但對股市資金異常流動的擔憂仍然存在。正如第 1 段所示,……

然而,我們上週推出的操作系統仍然存在爭議。

Example:
In spite of this, little progress has been made in controlling our ^ production costs(生產成本).
儘管如此,我們在控制生產成本方面進展甚微。
^ Production costs和manufacturing costs 有何分別?
生產成本(production costs)反映了與經營企業(operating a business)相關的所有費用,例如租金(rent)、廣告和營銷(advertising and marketing)、設備(equipment)。
另一方面,製造成本(manufacturing costs)僅代表製造產品所需的直接費用,例如材料(materials)、人工(labor)和經常費用(overhead)。
4. However, our research findings show that ______ does more harm than good.
然而,我們的研究結果發現……是弊大於利的。
Example:
However, our research findings show that substituting carbon steel for higher-cost
stainless steel does more harm than good because it will reduce corrosion protection.
然而,我們的研究結果發現,用碳鋼代替成本更高的不銹鋼是弊大於利的,因為這樣會降低了保護腐蝕的效用。
5. Nevertheless, the disadvantages of _______ may outweigh the advantages.
然而,⋯⋯是弊多於利的。
Example:
Nevertheless, the disadvantages of exercising new company policy may outweigh the advantages because studies have shown that…..
然而,執行新公司政策的弊端可能大於優勢,因為研究發現……
學會了不同的方式去「引入」、「承接上文」、和「轉折到相反的立場」後,相信各位下次需要撰寫work report時,也不會再害怕無從入手吧!
