今日主题句:尽管太阳高照,却不很暖和。Although the sun was shining it wasn't very warm.
秋意渐浓,别看太阳挺大,但吹的已经是冷风了,同学们请注意早晚防寒,提防感冒啊。
说回正题,在使用although表示“虽然……,但是……”的句子时,有多少人会把今天的主题句写成:
Although the sun was shining, but it wasn't very warm. (错误)
在使用although时,后面一定不能接but。
(一)though 和 although的用法及其让步状语从句请注意,though的拼写是有区别于through和thought的,外面上长得有些相似,但是意思却相差很远,大家一定要注意区分,看阅读的时候,也注意不要先入为主的认错了。
① through
prep. adv. 穿过;
adj. 贯穿的。
②thought
n. 思想;思考;
v. 想,思考;认为(think的过去式和过去分词)
(1)连词though和although作“虽然”讲的让步状语从句[例句]
Although(或 Though)he is only eighteen years old, he has learned how to program. 虽然他才18岁,但他已经会编程序了。
【注意】虽然与although或though搭配时,英语里不能使用but,但我们在翻译时,一定要加上“但是”。考虑那强迫症患者的因素,真要对称一下,可以加上still或yet。
[例句]
Although his matter sounds strange, yet it is true. 此事听起来虽然奇怪,但却是事实。
(2)though和although引导的让步状语从句可以省略与主句相同的主语及其对应的be动词。[例句]
Though(或Although) in a hurry, he stopped to answer my question. 尽管他很忙,但还是停下来回答了我的问题。
(3)though位于主句后面,并且前面还有逗号时作“可是”讲。[例句]
They're very different, though they did seem to get on well when they met. 他们大不相同,可是见面后好像还确实相处得不错
(4)though作副词“可是”,能够放在句末,但although不可以。[例句]
It's hard task, I enjoy it though. 这是件艰难的任务,可是我乐意干。
(5)as though(或 as if)“好像……似的”[例句]
He acted as though(或 as if) no accident had happened. 他表现得似乎什么事故都没有发生过似的。
(6)even though(或 even if) “尽管,即使”[例句]
I'll overcome all the difficulties, even though is cost me my life. 我要克服一切困难,即使要献出我的生命。
讲到这里,我卖一个关子,问:
Even if I love you, I can't marry you.
和
Even though I love you, I can't marry you.
的区别是什么?有兴趣的同学可以评论区留言哈。这种情况最好是不要发生的好,爱就勇敢在一起嘛。
好了,一起来练习一下吧。
(二)课后练习(1)我喜欢他,尽管他有时惹我生气。
(2)即使别人不赞同我,我也会表达我的意见。
(3)她和我说话,好像她认识我似的。
