连词
同样的一篇作文,只要稍加变动,就能使文章增色不少,那么都要做什么呢?文法层面上,三点足矣——替换零星词汇、调整语序、加衔接词。替换词汇不是要让文章里有多么的用词多样,而是力主将思路更精确的表达。调整语序仅仅增加一些符合语感的倒装就可以让作文上升一个档次。而以上两个都不如加衔接词来得性价比高。
1 比较and和or
1) 并列结构中,or通常用于否定句,and用于肯定句。
2) 但有时and 也可用于否定句。请注意其不同特点:
There is no air or water in the moon. There is no air and no water on the moon.
2 for是并列连词,不能置于含两个并列分句的句子的句首,只能将其放在两个分句中间。
(错) For he is ill, he is absent today. (对) He is absent today, for he is ill.
3 比较so和 such
such 是形容词,修饰名词或名词词组,so是副词,只能修饰形容词或副词。so 还可与表示数量的形容词many,few,much, little连用,形成固定搭配。
so + adj. such + a(n) + n. so foolish such a fool
so + adj. + a(n) + n. so nice a flower such a nice flower
so + adj. + n. (pl.) such +n. (pl.) so many/ few flowers such nice flowers
so + adj. + n. [不可数] such +n. [不可数] so much/little money. such rapid progress
