英文考試標準考「連接詞」的考法。⠀
⠀
先講結論,19題前方提到"new",後面又提到20年的經驗,依照連接詞特性,只有although符合前後有「前後對比」之意。⠀
⠀
(A) Although (conj.) 雖然⠀
⠀
我今天要來解析一下這連接詞的延伸用法,讓這題無聊的題目有更多可學,來囉⠀
⠀
在台灣高中比較大略的教法通常是這樣分類的⠀
「雖然、儘管、但是」⠀
從屬連接詞 (conj.)⠀
although/ though/ while/ whereas/ even if/ even though⠀
⠀
但還是有細部差異,所以嚴格來說不能全放等號。⠀
⠀
(prep.)⠀
despite/ in spite of/ with all/ for all/ notwithstanding⠀
⠀
其實我們學英文如果概念清楚,可以省去背很多東西,可能很多教材會寫,⠀
一、⠀
although= despite the fact that⠀
也是不用去背,因為介系詞prep.本來就不能接子句,所以需要the fact that來引導,就算今天不是使用despite,介系詞的概念也是一樣的。⠀
⠀
因此懂conj.與prep.的用法差異才是學習核心。⠀
⠀
二、⠀
常有人說although跟but不得連用,這其實也不用特別背,主要是連接詞conj.的概念就是,一個連接詞連接兩個句子,如果同時用although跟but就等於兩個句子居然有兩個conj.,抵觸核心邏輯,所以根本也不需要特別背。⠀
/⠀
⠀
回到「雖然、儘管、但是」(conj.)⠀
基本上要用得漂亮還是要搞清楚細部關係。⠀
⠀
我會分成3類別⠀
(a) 表「讓步」的副詞子句連接詞⠀
(b) 表「對比、對照」的副詞子句連接詞⠀
(c) even though/ even if 差異分析⠀
-⠀
(a) 所謂「讓步」就是對主要子句所說的話在語氣上加以退讓,所以才會說「雖然、儘管」。⠀
常見的有:⠀
even though/ although/ though⠀
前三個其實都可以指「雖然」,⠀
但正式用法&語氣上even though > although,though比較口語,且though可作副詞用=however。⠀
⠀
e.g. (conj.)⠀
Though Joe is a teacher, she is above asking questions.⠀
Although Joe is a teacher, she is above asking questions.⠀
Even though Joe is a teacher, she is above asking questions.⠀
⠀
e.g. (adv.)⠀
Joe is a teacher. She is above asking questions, though.⠀
Joe is a teacher. She is above asking questions, however.⠀
/⠀
(b) while/ whereas⠀
然而、另一方面(用來連接兩個對比或相反的論述)⠀
⠀
whereas語氣比while強。while也可以用在表「時間」的副詞子句,因此要看文意來判斷最準。⠀
⠀
e.g.⠀
Joe is diligent, while her sister is lazy.⠀
Joe is diligent, whereas her sister is lazy.⠀
.⠀
而while其實也可以表「雖然」,讓步之意。⠀
e.g.⠀
While I still love you, I can't be with you.⠀
⠀
*while觀念分析⠀
1. 引導時間副詞子句,相當於as.⠀
2. 引導對照子句,相當於whereas.⠀
3. 引導讓步子句,相當於although.⠀
/⠀
(c) even though/ even if主要差異⠀
其實這兩個不能劃上等號。⠀
⠀
even though 建議翻成「雖然」,通常指「已知」⠀
even if 翻成「即使,就算」,通常指「未知」⠀
⠀
e.g. 來個beta的例句⠀
Even though you don't love me, I still love you.⠀
雖然你不愛我,我仍然愛你。(換言之,我知道對方不愛我)⠀
⠀
Even if you don't love me, I still love you.⠀
即使/就算你不愛我,我仍然愛你。(言下之意,其實我不確定對方到底愛不愛我)⠀
⠀
所以怎麼可能一樣:)?⠀
⠀
至於(prep.)介系詞的系列用法之後再介紹囉!⠀
⠀
(B) Because (conj.) 因為⠀
(C) Once (conj.) 一旦⠀
(D) Until (conj.) 直到⠀
⠀
因為篇幅關係,其實其他選項還可以多做延伸補充,之後再來慢慢分享,如果你喜歡也歡迎分享與留言支持我的教學創作,感謝大家!⠀

diligent用法 在 Eric's English Lounge Facebook 的最讚貼文
[詞彙區別] on the contrary, in contrast, on the other hand 的用法區別
在學術英文寫作,常常會需要做兩個觀點的正反面比較,或是提出另外一種看法,有三個最常見的片語可供選擇:on the contrary,in contrast 與 on the other hand,但這三種片語容易混淆常常造成寫作者的困擾,以下老師提供每個片語的解釋和用法,給同學參考,希望對同學有幫助。
===========================
◆on the contrary: (恰恰相反、相反地)
Use “on the contrary” when you have just said or implied that something is not true and are going to say that the opposite is true.
用來表示與先前的看法相反或極不相同,或表示先前看法的不是真的,現在說的才是真的。
E.g.
When I first met him, I thought he was a modest and gentle person. On the contrary, he is arrogant and ruthless.
A: I hear you enjoy running.
B: On the contrary, I find it to be tiresome.
-------------------------------------------
◆by contrast, in contrast (to/with): (對照之下、與……成對比)
Use “by contrast” or “in contrast (to/with)” to show that you are mentioning a very different situation from the one you have just mentioned.
“In contrast” and “by contrast” mean the same thing: the act of comparing in order to show differences. The difference lies in the way the words are used. “In contrast” is usually followed by “to” or “with” and requires a noun to follow it. “By contrast” is usually followed or preceded by the subject of the sentence.
In contrast 和 by contrast 意義相同,都是用來對比兩件事或兩個人之不同處。但他們的用法不盡相同。In contrast 通常會與 to 或 with 連用,用法如下:in contrast to/with+名詞。
E.g.
In contrast to the diligent bee, the butterfly seems to fly around without a clear purpose.
In contrast with most local programs, the federal government's plan looks beyond just economic growth.
Cats usually sleep in the day. Dogs, by contrast, never settle down.
-------------------------------------------
◆on the other hand: (另一方面)
Use “on the one hand” to introduce the first of two contrasting points, facts, or ways of looking at something. It is always followed later by on the other hand or on the other.
是對同一件事物,提供不同角度或切入點,或對剛才的說明再加入一個不同的事實。
E.g.
The writing class is taking up too much of my time; on the other hand, I’m learning a lot about writing.
I hate working in a clothing store, but on the other hand, there are also some advantages.
===========================
總結來說,在寫文章的時候,如果你已經預設了立場,要表達與之前的說法相反或強調之前的說法是錯誤的,可以用 on the contrary。若要做客觀的觀點對比,不加入個人對錯想法,只是單純比較時就用 by contrast 或 in contrast (to/with)。而 on the other hand 則是說明一件事情的兩面,或是不同的看法,雖有部分人士認為此片語不夠正式,但在學術語料庫出現的頻率可是這三個裡面最高的。
