Unit3语法辅导(一)although与though的用法解析1
although较正式,语气强;though较常用
现代中两者可随意换用
如:Thoughhewastired,hewentonworking
=Althoughhewastired,hewentonworking
although和though引导的从句放在主句前后均可,有时还可放在句中
如:HeoftenhelpsmewithmyEnglish(al)thoughheisquitebusy
尽管他相当忙,但是还常常帮我学
Althoughmanydifficultiesarestillahead,wearedeterminedtomakeaterachievements
尽管在前面的道路上还有许多困难,但是,我们决心要取得更大的成就
although,though引导的从句不能与but,however连用,但可与yet,still连用
不能说:Thoughhewasold,butheworkedhard
应把but去掉
当然,保留but而去Though也可
though有时指假设的情况,不指事实,从句用虚拟语气;although不能这样用
如:Einsteincaredlittleformoney,thoughhecouldhavebeenveryrich
尽管爱因斯坦本可以成为非常富有的人,但他对金钱却不感兴趣
(though引导的情况是假设的而不是事实
)Hewillneverdosuchathingthoughhe(should)beforcedto
即使强迫他,他也决不会干这样的事
(注意:不能用is)5
though引导的从句,可用倒装语序,即把从句中的表语或状语放到though之前;although却不能这样用
如:Youngthoughsheis,yetsheisfitforj
