https://www.independent.co.uk/news/long_reads/branwell-bronte-emily-charlotte-anne-family-haworth-yorkshire-a7940396.html
The piece of news is retrieved from the UK Independent newspaper, and it consists of a publication about 'the forgotten brother Brönte', Branwell.
Some of the formal expressions found in the piece of news are:
It is thought to have been...
The artist was none other than...
Very little is widely known...
Spiralling into...
But while it is tempting to view...
With no bicentenary birth to commemorate...
To a certain extent...
Being aware of...
It's not really a celebration...
I think that's the wrong word...
I think what I'm hoping is that...
It's something of a rebranding exercise...
Largely educated...
With a no inconsiderate intellect...
It is in no doubt...
Others have speculated more closely...
It's a theory that...
The main argument is...
Most specularly and scandalously...
Apparently...
The fact that...
There is certainly...
It has been painstakingly research...
Connectors and linking devices such as: in fact, however, indeed, consequently, then, while, perhaps, unfortunately.
In this website http://writeenglish.net/usinglinkers1-1.php, connectors and liners are clearly and thoroughly explained and exemplified.
This week I have been practising oral communication in CAE lessons and I have been studying ceaselessly.
