让步状语从句
让步状语从句表示与主句相反的某种条件或者情况,但从句所表示的这些不利因素并不能阻止主句动作的发生,即在相反条件下,主句的情况依然存在。引导让步状语从句的从属连词主要有:
从属连词 | 含义 |
though/although | 尽管;虽然 |
even if/though | 即使;虽然 |
1 though,although的用法
though和although的意义相同,多数情况下可以互换使用。主句可用yet或still,更加强调对比性,但不可用but。
We should give the boy another chance though he has made some mistakes.
我们应该再给这个男孩一个机会,虽然他犯了一些错误。
The article is very important although it is short. 那篇文章虽然很短,但是很重要。
Though it was cold,yet he went out without a coat.
虽然天气冷,但是他没有穿外套就出去了。
拓展 although不可用作副词,而though可以用作副词,意为“不过,可是”。
I shall come to the meeting;I can’t stay till the end,though.
我会到这次会议的,不过我不能一直待到会议开完。
2 even if,even though的用法
even if和even though表示语气更强的让步,意为“即使;纵然;虽然”。
Even if you say so,I do not believe it. 即使你这么说,我也不信。
Even though he is 30 now,he is still like a little child.
虽然现在30岁了,他仍然像个小孩子。
注意 even though中的though不可以换作although。
拓展 在英语中,“疑问词-ever”可用作表示具有强烈意义的疑问词,也可引导让步状语从句,相当于“no matter 相应的疑问词”。
Do it whatever others say. =Do it no matter what others say.
不管别人怎么说,尽管干。
However busy she was,she studied English every day.
=No matter how busy she was,she studied English every day.
不管多忙,她都每天学习英语。
