中考英語語法——并列連詞but和yet的用法

1. but 的用法
    主要用于表示轉(zhuǎn)折，意為“但是” 。如：
    It was a sunny but not very warm day. 那一天天氣晴朗，卻不太暖和。
    He drives not carefully but slowly. 他開車不是很小心，而是開得很慢。
    注意：不要按漢語意思將“雖然……但是……”直譯為 although…but…。如：
    雖然我們很貧窮，但我們很快樂。
    誤：Although we are poor,but we are happy.
    正：Though we are poor,we are happy./We are poor, but we are happy.
    2. yet 的用法
    與 but 一樣，yet 也主要用于表示轉(zhuǎn)折，意為“但是”、“而” 。如：
    I have failed, yet I shall try again. 我失敗了，但我還要嘗試。
    注意：有時可與并列連詞 and 或 but 連用，構(gòu)成習語 and yet 和 but yet，且兩者大致同義(均相當于表轉(zhuǎn)折的 but)。如：
    She drove very fast to the airport, but [yet, and yet, but yet] she missed the plane. 她開快車去機場，可還是誤了飛機。
