语法点二 表示让步关系的从属连词 　　

　　1．although与though

　　(1)这两个词意思相同，通常可以换用，但although语气较重，通常放在句首，并用于正式场合。这两个词都不与but连用，但可与yet或still连用。

　　Although it is snowing，(yet) it is not very cold.

　　虽然下着雪，但天并不是很冷。

　　(2)though作"尽管"讲，引导的让步状语从句可以倒装，即把表语、状语或动词原形置于句首，若表语是可数名词单数，前置时要省去不定冠词。

　　Child though he is, he knows a lot.

　　虽然他是个孩子，但他懂得很多。

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

　　不管我怎样努力，还是搬不动那块石头。

　　[名师点津]　though除作连词外，还可用作副词，意为"但是，然而"，常置于句末；句子较长时，也可置于句中。

　　She promised to phone. I heard nothing, though.

　　 她答应要打电话来，可我没听到回信儿。

　　2．as

　　as引导的让步状语从句要采用倒装语序，即把表语、状语或谓语动词放到从句句首，其用法同though。

　　Poor as he is, he lives a happy life.

　　他虽然穷，但过得很幸福。

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

　　尽管他很爱她，但没有告诉她。

　　3．while

　　while引导让步状语从句，意为"虽然；尽管"，while从句常置于句首。

　　While I admit that there are problems, I don't agree that they cannot be solved.

　　 尽管我承认有问题存在， 但我不同意说这些问题不能解决。
