他喜欢运动，而他妻子则喜欢音乐。

　　②However_cold_it_is,_he always goes swimming.

　　不管天有多冷，他都去游泳。

　　2．although 和though的用法

　　(1)although和though都是引导让步状语从句的从属连词，意为"尽管，虽然"，一般情况下可以互换。但although较正式，多用于句首，而though在非正式文体中较为普遍。although和though都不能和并列连词but连用，但可以和yet或still连用。

　　Although he likes the girl, (yet/still) he can't marry her.

　　虽然他喜欢这个女孩，但不能和她结婚。

　　(2)though引导让步状语从句时可用部分倒装形式，其用法相当于as，把从句中的表语、状语或动词原形置于句首；若表语是可数名词单数，前置时要省略不定冠词。

　　Poor though/as he is, he lives a happy life.

　　他虽然穷，但过得很幸福。

　　Child though/as she is, she knows a lot.

　　虽然还是个孩子，她却懂得很多。

　　Much though/as he loved her, he didn't tell her.

　　尽管他很爱她，但并没有告诉她。

　　Try though/as I might, I couldn't lift the stone.

　　尽管我试了，还是搬不动那块石头。

　　[名师点津]　though还可以作副词，放在句末，用逗号和主句分开，相当于however，意为"然而"。

　　She said she would come; she didn't, though.

　　她说她要来，然而她没来。
