讓步狀語(yǔ)從句:although和though的用法比較
讓步狀語(yǔ)從句中最常用的引導(dǎo)詞就是though和although了,這兩個(gè)詞意思幾乎一樣,但在使用上卻存在著一些微妙的不同,很容易混淆,小編這次就為大家?guī)?lái)這兩者的講解,一起來(lái)看看吧!
一、用作連詞
表示“雖然”,兩者大致同義,可換用,只是 although 比 though 更為正式:
Though [Although] it was raining,we went there. 雖然下著雨,但我們還是去了那兒。
Though [Although] it was barely four o’clock, the lights were already on. 盡管才四點(diǎn)鐘,燈已經(jīng)亮了。
Though [Although] we are poor, we are still happy. 我們雖然窮,仍然很快活。
?
二、用作副詞
although 一般不用作副詞,而 though 可用作副詞,且一般放在句末(不放在句首),意為“可是”、“不過(guò)”:
It’s hard work; I enjoy it though. 工作很辛苦,可是我樂(lè)意干。
He is looking fit, though. 但他看起來(lái)很健康。
You can count on him, though. 不過(guò)你可以指靠他。
?
三、用于習(xí)語(yǔ)
在 as though(好像,仿佛),even though(即使,縱然)等固定短語(yǔ)中不能用 although:
She closed her eyes as though she were tired. 她閉上眼,仿佛很疲勞似的。
We felt as though we had witnessed the whole thing. 我們感到仿佛目擊了整個(gè)這件事似的。
He is an honest man, I must say, even though I have opposed him. 盡管我反對(duì)過(guò)他,我還得說(shuō)他是一個(gè)誠(chéng)實(shí)的人。
She was always afraid of men, even though she had lots of boyfriends. 盡管她有很多男朋友,她總是害怕男人。
?
四、用于倒裝
though 引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句可用部分倒裝的形式(注意:倒裝后位于句首的名詞之前不用冠詞),但 although 一般不這樣用:
Poor though I am, I can afford it. 我雖窮,但這東西還是買得起的。
Child though he was, he did quite well. 他雖是孩子,但干得很好。
以上就是這次關(guān)于讓步狀語(yǔ)從句中though和although的知識(shí)點(diǎn)了,大家都學(xué)會(huì)怎么分辨這兩者了嗎?只要抓住每種用法的特點(diǎn),注意辨析它們之間的不同,就能很快熟練的應(yīng)用了。
