What is more 是什么意思?补充优点不能用 except this

What is more 用来追加同一方向的理由,常带着“更重要的是”的意味。Except this 看似也能表达“除此之外”,却会把添加信息变成排除信息。

What is more 表示此外或更重要的是。它沿着同一个方向补充一点,而这一点通常比前面的更有力或更令人意外。在口语和朋友间的消息中,会缩写成 what's more。

修改原因

修改前The course covers grammar and vocabulary. Except this, it includes weekly speaking practice.

修改后The course covers grammar and vocabulary. What is more, it includes weekly speaking practice.

Except this 看起来可能是在说“除此之外还有”。但 except 表示不包括,会从一组内容中排除某项,而不是添加。这里要为课程补充一个优点,所以把 except this 换成 What is more。

Cambridge Dictionary

缩写 what's more 更口语化,在交谈中经常接在 and 后:It's cheap, and what's more, it's right next to the station。作文可以写完整形式 What is more,也可以使用更正式的 moreover 或 furthermore。
