考点2 连接副词
常见的连接副词有:therefore, besides, otherwise, however, moreover, still, thus, meanwhile, nevertheless等。
以however为例,它与最常见的并列连词but起的作用是一致的,都具有转折的含义,唯一的区别在于前者是副词,后者是连词。however在句中的位置及其前后的标点符号用法为:
(1)Sentence A.+However,+Sentence B.
(2)Sentence A;+however,+Sentence B.
(3)Sentence A. Sentence B, however.
例如:
Many people believe this is right. However, John believes that is wrong.
Many people believe this is right; however, John believes that is wrong.
Many people believe this is right. John believes that is wrong, however.
(三句的含义均为:许多人认为这是对的,然而,约翰却认为这是错误的。)
而并列连词but的用法:
Sentence A,+but+Sentence B.例如:
Many people believe this is right, but John believes that is wrong.
许多人认为这是对的,但是约翰却认为这是错误的。
其他连接副词用法与however相似。
