② 表示选择的并列结构
⑴ or意思为"否则"。
I must work hard,or I will fail in the exam.
⑵ either,or 意思为"或者......或者......注意谓语动词采用就近原则。
Either you or I am right.
③ 表示转折或对比
⑴ but表示转折,while表示对比。
Some people love cats,while others hate them.
⑵ not...but...意思为"不是......而是......"not和but后面的用词要遵循一致原则。
They were not the bones of an animal,but(the bones) of a human being.
③ 表原因关系
⑴ for是并列连词,不能置于含两个并列分句的句子的句首,只能将其放在两个分句中间。
判断改错:
(错)For he is ill,he is absent today.
(对)He is absent today,for he is ill.
④ so,therefore
如:He hurt his leg, so he coudn't lplay in the game.
注意:a. 两个并列连词不能连用,但therefore,then,yet可以和并列连词连用。
You can watch TV, and /or you can go to bed.
b.although,yet 但although不能与but连用。
⑤ 注意:
not only,but also 关联两个分句时,一个分句因有否定词not而必须倒装。
如:Not only does he like reading stories,but also he can even write some.
neither...nor... 意思为"既不......也不......"谓语动词采用就近原则,与nor后的词保持一致。
⑥ 比较so和such
其规律由so与such的不同词性决定。such 是形容词,修饰名词或名词词组,so是副词,只能修饰形容词或副词。so还可与表示数量的形容词many,few,much,little连用,形成固定搭配。
⑴ so many 已成固定搭配,a lot of虽相当于many,但a lot of为名词性的,只能用such搭配。
