Although is a conjunction. It is used for introducing a statement that makes your main statement seem surprising. Although是連詞，用在當(dāng)主要陳述顯得出乎意料時。 ● Although Jane was the most deserving candidate, she didn’t get the job. 雖然簡是最佳的候選人，但她沒有得到那份工作。 ● Although she is rich and famous, she is not happy. 雖然她有錢又有名，但她并不快樂。
● The soldiers fought bravely, and although they were badly wounded, they refused to surrender.
士兵們英勇作戰(zhàn)，雖然受了重傷，但他們拒絕投降。
Though and although are interchangeable. Though is more common.
Though和although是可互換的。Tough更常見一點。
● Though she was poor she would never ask for help.
雖然她很窮，但她從不尋求幫助。
● Though difficult, the journey was not dangerous.
雖然旅途艱難，但并不危險。
Even though is more emphatic than though and although.
Even though比though和although程度更深。
● The soldiers went on fighting even though they were badly injured.
盡管士兵們受了重傷，他們還是繼續(xù)戰(zhàn)斗。
Though, although and even though are subordinating conjunctions. They introduce a dependent clause that needs to be attached to an independent clause.
Though, although和even Though是從屬連詞。它們引入了一個需要附加到獨立分句上的從屬子句。
When clauses introduced by these subordinating conjunctions come at the beginning of a sentence, we usually separate them with a comma. Note that the commas can be left out if the clauses are very short.
當(dāng)這些從屬連詞引導(dǎo)的從句出現(xiàn)在句首時，我們通常用逗號分隔它們。注意，如果分句很短，逗號可以省略。
The coordinating conjunction but can express the same idea.
并列連詞but能表達(dá)相同的意思。
● The soldiers were badly injured but they went on fighting.
士兵們受了重傷，但他們還是繼續(xù)戰(zhàn)斗。
● She was poor but she would never ask for help.
她很窮，但她從不尋求幫助。
The same ideas can also be expressed using the transitional adverbs however, nevertheless and nonetheless.
同樣的意思也可以用過渡副詞however, nevertheless和nonetheless來表達(dá)。
● They were badly injured; nevertheless, they went on fighting.
他們受了重傷;盡管如此，他們還是繼續(xù)戰(zhàn)斗。
● Jane was the most deserving candidate; however, she didn’t get the job.
簡是最有資格的候選人;然而，她沒有得到那份工作。
● It was a difficult race; nonetheless, over 1,000 runners participated.
這是一場艱難的比賽;盡管如此，還是有超過1000名跑步者參加了比賽。
Note the punctuation. Transitional adverbs do not connect two clauses; they merely facilitate the flow of ideas.
注意標(biāo)點符號。過渡副詞不連接兩個從句;它們只是為了意思的連貫。
A transitional adverb should be preceded by a full stop or a semicolon. And it should be followed by a comma.
過渡副詞前應(yīng)加句號或分號。后面應(yīng)該加逗號。
