第三篇:英语连词知识点总结

英语连词知识点总结

一、并列连词

并列连词用来连接平行对等(即互不从属)的词、词组或分句。按照并列连词在句子中的作用可分为:并列关系,转折关系,选择关系,因果关系。

基本并列连词如 and, or , but , 关联连词如 either...or , neither...nor , not only...but also,both...and, whether...or 等;介于并列连词与从属连词或介词之间的结构如 as well as , as much as, rather than , more than, no less than 等;此外还有些'半连接词',一些语法学家把它们称为连接副词,如 nevertheless, however, meanwhile, otherwise, likewise 等,在句中做连接性状语。这类连词主要是从逻辑上,而不是从形式上连接句子,其关系比较松散。

并列关系的连词有:and, both„and, not only„but also, as well as, and„as well, not„nor, neither„nor等。

1.and的基本用法是表示并列和对称关系。

例4 He sang and played the guitar.他一边唱歌一边弹吉他。

(1)两个对等的宾语或状语之间,在肯定句中用and,但在否定句中,不用and,一般用or或nor。

例5 Our college is not in Beijing or Shanghai.我们的学院既不在北京也不在上海。

(2)当一个句子中出现了两个否定词时,应该用and连接并列成分。这时and表示的也是全部否定。

例6 He did not talk loudly and also not clearly.他说话声音不大,也不清晰。

(3)and用来连接条件分句和结果分句,意思是“„„,那么„„”。当两个并列成分本身都是否定时,也要用and连接,and在这种情况下,仍然表示全部否定。

(4)在come, go, run, hurry up, stay, stop等动词后,and能用来代替省略to不定式引导的目的状语。

例7 Would you go and tell the children to shut up? 你能告诉孩子们别再说话了吗?

注:有时and后可用第三人称单数或过去式。

例8 He went and had a drink with us yesterday.昨天他来了,和我们喝了点酒。

用在try, wait等后,也有类似的用法,但只能用它们的原形。

例9 Try and get some water.尽量拿点水来。

(5)祈使句 + and 表示结果。

例10 Let’s give him some help, and he will be able to improve in his studies.咱们帮帮他,他一定会提高他的学习成绩。

(6)and that(or those)„,„„而且„„ 其作用是补充前面所说的话,以达到强调的目的。用来代表前一分句的全部或一部分。

例11 He speaks English, and that very well.他会说英语,而且说的很好。

(7)at once„ and „ 既 „„又„„

例12 The novel is at once interesting and instructive.那部小说既有趣,又有教育意义。

2.both „and连接两个平等的成分,避免用两个以上的平等的成分。

例13 A man should have both courage and perseverance.一个人应该既有勇气又有毅力。

3.not only„ but also„有时but或also可省略,not only位于句首要倒装。

例14 He is not only handsome but also clever.他不仅英俊潇洒,而且聪明。

4.as well as相当于连词,其意为in addition to,and also,besides等。as well as的侧重点在前,强调语气较强。连接两个名词时,谓语动词要与第一个名词相一致。

例15 He as well as I agrees with you.他和我一样都同意你的观点。

例16 His parents as well as he are very kind to me.他的父母和他都对我很好。

5.neither„nor„ 它们可单独使用,位于句首时要倒装。

例17 Gases have neither definite size nor shape of their own.气体既没有大小,也没有形状。

例18 I can neither speak nor write French.我既不会说也不会写法语。

转折、对比关系的连词有:but, however, nevertheless, yet, while, still, whereas, onlybut , nevertheless, likewise, anyway , only , conversely , on the contrary, by this time, all the same , fortunately, on the other hand , in the meantime等。

1.but用作连词,意为但是、可是或然而,表示语义的转折。

例19 She was tired, but she still went on working.她很累了,但她仍然继续努力工作。

2.However 用作连接副词,相当于no matter how,引导让步状语从句,意思是“不管怎样„„”“无论如何„„”,具体结构有以下两种:

(1)however+形容词+主语+系动词

例20 However rich people are,they always seem anxious to take more money.无论人们有多富裕,他们似乎总是渴望挣到更多的钱。

(2)however+副词+主语+谓语

例21 However fast he runs,he can’t catch up with us.无论他跑得多快也不能赶上我们。

3.nevertheless 然而,不过

例22 He is charming;nevertheless, I don’t quite trust him.他很有魅力,然而我不太相信他。

4.yet 用作转折连词时,意思是“然而、可是”。

例23 She has her weakness, yet that does not mean she is not qualified for the job.她有她的缺点,然而那并不意味着她不胜任这项工作。5.while意为“而,然而”,表示转折。

例24 He went out, while I stayed at home.他出去了,而我呆在家里。

6.still强调过去发生的事情及存在的状况目前还在延续。

例25 We have made some achievements, still we should be modest and prudent.我们取得了一些成绩,但我们仍须谦虚谨慎。

7.whereas意为“而,然而”连接两个对等的句子。

例26 He is ill, whereas I am a little tired.他病了,而我有些累了。

例27 You may go, only come back early.你可以去,只是要早点回来。

选择关系的连词有:either„or, whether„or, or, rather than„,otherwise等。

1.either„or 作为选择连词,一般用来连接句子中的同等成分,如名词、动词、介词短语等。但有时也可见到前后不一致的情况。

例28 You may either stay here or go with us.你可以留下来,也可以跟我们一起走。

2.whether„or作“是„„还是„„”解时,whether表示一种选择,其后可以跟介词短语或不定式短语。

例29 Please tell us whether to go or stay.请告诉我们是走还是留下来。

3.rather A than B 连接两个并列的成分表示宁愿„„,后面常用动词原形。

例30 I would rather read than watch television.我宁愿读书而不愿看电视。

4.or 在并列结构中,or通常用于否定句。表示选择的并列结构中or意思为“否则”。

例31 Which would you rather do go walking or go to the movies? 你愿意去散步还是去看电影?

因果关系的连词有:so, for, therefore, accordingly, thus, hence, consequently,thus, on that account, in that case等。

1.so表示“因此” “所以”,连接并列句,前一分句表示原因,后一分句表示结果。

例32 It was late, so we went home.天晚了,所以我们就回家了。

例33 He was angry, so he could not speak.他很生气,连话都说不出来了。

2.for为并列连词,连接两个并列的分句,表示附加的或推断的理由。

例34 I could not visit you, for I felt unwell yesterday.我昨天感觉不舒服,因此没能拜访你。

3.therefore 因此,所以。

例35 He lost his health, and therefore his difficulties were increased.他的身体垮了,因此他的困难比以前增加了。

4.hence 因此,从此,表示原因,理由。

例36 The town was built on the side of a hill;hence(comes)the name Hillside.这个小镇建在山边,于是命名为山边。

5.consequently 结果,从而,因此。

例37 It rained three days in succession, and consequently all the bridges were swept away.一连下了三天雨,所有的桥都被冲走了。

其它并列连词常见的有: as well as, more than, rather than, no less than 等.(1)as well as 表示 '同' 和 '也' 的意义

as well as 用作并列连词时它意义相当于 not only...but also, 但侧重点在后一并列成分上而 as well as 侧重点却在前一并列成分上 ,A as well as B=not only B but also A.(2)more than 表示而不是之意.(3)rather than 表示 '而不是' 之意.(4)no less than 表示 ' 同...一样 ' 之意.当 as well as ,more than, rather than, no less than 连接两个成分作主语时谓语动词应于第一个成分的数相一致.在使用并列连词时我们应该注意:(1)并列连词不可以连用.(2)有些连接性状语副词可以和某些从属连词对应使用.(3)在 for 或 so that 引出的分句中如果主语与前一分句的主语所指相同其主语不可以省略.同样, 如果第二个分句是由连接副词引出的其主语通常也不可省略.二、从属连词

从属连词是用来引导从句的,它在主句和从句中间起连接作用。具体地说,从属连词主要引导名词性从句(主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句)和状语从句,不引导定语从句。从属连词按词形分为简单从属连词,复合从属连词,关连从属连词。1)简单从属连词 常见的有:after, although虽然,尽管, as, because, before, if, lest,once, since, that, till, unless, until, when, where, whether, while 等。2)复合从属连词

由两个或两个以上单词构成的从属连词,如: as if犹如,好似, as far as至于,直到,远到;就„而言 , as soon as一就, according as , in case , no matter who(how,what,when, where), rather than, 3 for all that 尽管,虽然如此 , given(that), in order that, now(that), on condition that ,(so)that ,provided/providing(that), inasmuch as , insofar as , in that,now that等。

3)关联从属连词 由两个关联构成的,如: as...as, nore(less,-er)...than, no sooner...than, so...as , so...that,such...sa , the...the, whether...or 等,使用从属连词时,应该注意

(1)由从属连词引导的状语从句,其位置通常是可变的。

(2)并列连词之间之前不可以加其它连词,而从属连词之前可以加并列连词;连接副词。使用连词时, 还应该注意: 1.because, for, since, as 的区别 1)、because语气强, 表示客观必然原因:例如: He is absent, because he is ill.因为生病,所以他没来。

比较:He is absent, for he is busy.(“生病”是“缺席”的必然原因,“忙”不是必然原因。)2)、for 语气轻,表示非客观必然的原因,是主观可改变结果的原因,甚至是猜测可能的原因: for 不能放句首,它是并列连词。

He must be ill, for he is absent.“缺席”不一定是“生病”,只是交流猜测。.3)、since, as 都是不讲自明的原因, 是已知的原因.Since I am a boy, let me carry the case.As you don't feel well,you had better stay at home.三、知识拾零

1、when和which等引导名词性从句时,分别称为连接副词和连接代词;引导形容词性从句时,分别称关系副词和关系代词,都在句子中作成分,不叫“连词”。while作并列连词,还可意为“但是,可是;然而”,表示转折或对比。

2、既能引导状语从句,又能引导名词性从句的if和whether.1)、在表示“是否”的意思时,whether和if都能引导宾语从句。但在正式文体中有or not或 wheither„ or时或介词的宾语时我用wheither。

2)表示“假如”的意思时,引导条件状语从句时,只能用if,不能用wheither。

3、when和while可以作从属连词,引导时间状语。when也可以作并列连词,意思为“就在这时突然”。While作并列连词时,意思为“然而”。

4、when作连词——引导状语从句;作连接副词——引导名词性从句;作关系副词——引导定语从句;作疑问副词——引出疑问句。

5、until引导时间状语从句常与not连用

6、while和when都有“当„„的时候”,不过while引导的从句通常动词为延续性的(如:work)而when 引导的从句动词既可以是延续性的也可以是非延续性的。

7、从属连词since引导的时间状语从句用一般过去时,主句用现在完成时,表示从过去某一时刻开始的动作,一直延续到现在。

8、属连词until的用法。until意为“直到„„为止”,表示时间上的转折点,在此以前发生的动作或状态,到了这个时刻,就立刻停止,转为另外的动作或状态。

9、并列连词not only„but also„ 中的also可以省略,但but不能省略。not only„but(also)„连接的前后两部分必须保持一致或对等。

10、情景交际用语知识。but在交际用语中,与“I’m sorry”及“Excuse me”等连用,表示委婉拒绝或道歉。

Excuse me for breaking in,__ but ___ I have some news for you.

11、“live up to„”配得上„„,“be home to„”„„的家园。as long as表示“仅有的条件”,while表示“同时或转折”,if表示“条件”,even though表示“让步”。

12、in case表示“for fear that”,意为“以防,免得”。另外,in case还可以用在句尾,表示“以防万一”,

13、as强调主句谓语动词与从句谓语动词所表示的动作同时发生;while除可表示动作的同时性外还含有一个动作在另一个动作正在进行或持续进行的某一时刻发生。

考研政治大题答题技巧

普遍适用规则:

在掌握知识量基本相同的情况下,答题技巧的不同可能使总分相差10到20分。政治的考研试卷中大题的分值占百分之六十,而实际上大题也是技巧性最强的题型。下面向大家介绍大题答题四步曲:第一步:仔细审题。找出本题目是关于哪个学科的哪个章节,在草稿纸上写下此章节内所有可能与本题有联系的基本概念及原理。大多数题目是跨章节,甚至跨学科的,要注意思维的发散性。

第二步:解释每一个概念并写出原理的基本内容。如果自己写出的相关概念太多,则视试卷留出的空白捡重要的写,解释概念和原理一般不要超过本题答题空间的二分之一。什么?

太多了?不要怕,答多不扣分。但要注意答题时每个概念和原理要作为一段,字迹要工整清晰。好了,本题目分数的一半你已经拿到了,下面进行第三步。

第三步:联系实际。如果本题是论述题,则根据本题联系实际中的一些现象,给出评价;如果本题是材料题,则材料就是实际,指出材料中的一些问题,也就是将材料用你学过的关于政治的术语再复述一遍。这部分一定要有,而且要作为一个段落,如果字迹工整的话,即使这一段答得驴头不对马嘴,至少也有两分。第四步:总结。这一部分是绝对送分的,但也要有技巧。要将其作为一个段落,如果此题是论述题,则将整个题目再复述一遍,不要忘了在前面加上一个所以;如果此题是材料题,则提倡材料中好的做法,批评材料中坏的做法。

如果答大题时你能熟练地按上面的四步做,大题方面你至少可以比相同水平的其他人多得n分,不信? 试用历史唯物主义的有关原理说明“以德治国”与“以法治国”的关系及其重要意义(2002年政治重中之重)。首先仔细读题目,题目中已经告诉我们是用马哲中的历史唯物主义的几章的原理,而以法治国和以德治国是邓论中的内容,因此要考虑将两个学科结合起来答题。表面上看题目中有两个基本概念以法治国和以德治国,联系到马哲,以德治国便是是道德问题,是上层建筑;以法治国便是法制问题。如此以来,此题需要答的基本概念和原理有:道德,法制,以德治国,以法治国,上层建筑,道德与法制的关系,以法治国和以德治国的关系。然后联系实际,这一步没关系,只要稍微写两句而且字迹工整便不失大格。最后总结,好像这里把题目重抄一遍不顺口,其实只要稍微一改便行:要把以法治国和以德治国相结合。

下面我们看一下标准答案:

1)历史唯物主义认为道德与法制既有联系又有区别,二者的区别表现在:道德的概念;法制的概念;道德与法制的关系。

2)历史唯物主义又认为,社会的经济基础决定上层建筑的产生、性质和变化;上层建筑反作用于经济基础。社会主义的法律和道德是社会主义上层建筑的重要组成部分,它对经济基础的发展有重大意义。

3)以法治国和以德治国又是相辅相成,不可分割的。以法治国的概念;以德治国的概念;以法治国和以德治国的关系。

4)把以德治国和以法治国紧密的结合起来,是建设有中国特色的社会主义的要求,也是社会主义市场经济的要求。怎么样,是不是感到大题的简单了?上面是我总结的几条关于政治考研的技巧,如果你能真正掌握它,不好意思,你的政治考研分数再也没有希望低于70分了。论述题:

第一步:仔细审题。

建议考生找出本题目是关于哪个科学的哪个章节,在草稿纸上写下此章节内所有可能与本题有联系的基本概念及原理。大多数题目是跨章节,甚至跨学科的,要注意思维的发散性。第二步:解释每一个概念并写出原理的基本内容。如果自己写出的相关概念太多,建议视试卷留出的空白捡重要的写,解释概念和原理一般不要超过本题答题空间的二分之一。什么?太多了?不要怕,答多了不扣分。但考生要注意答题时每个概念和原理要作为一段,字迹要工整清晰。好了,本题目分数的一半你已经拿到了,下面进行第三步。

第三步:联系实际。

如果本题是论述题,建议考生根据本题联系实际中的一些现象,给出评价,如果本题是材料题,则材料就是实际,指出材料中的一些问题,也就是将材料用你学过的关于政治的术语再复述一遍。这部分一定有要有,而且要作为一个段落,字迹工整。

第四步;总结。

这一部分是绝对送分的,但也要有技巧。将其作为一个段落,如果此题是论述题,则将整个题目再复述一遍,不要忘了在前面加上一个所以;如果此题是材料题,则提倡材料中好的做法,批评材料中坏的做法。

上面的四步中好像没有提过辨析题,辨析题就是一个分值较少而且需要判断的论述题,除了判断以外,上面的四步同样适用。但要求考生特别注意的是辨析题的判断,千万不要盲目的说其对错,例如一些题目的前半部分是对的而后半部分产错的,有的题目说的不会面,这些都要指出。材料题:

如何回答政治材料题

一、政治材料分析题的基本特点:

1、提供情境,包含手段和结果,要求从结果的好与坏来判断所运用手段是否合理,并要求提出相应的解决办法。

2、要求规范的答题步骤:先答基本原理,引出配套的方法,进而用方法来分析材料。

3、要求多角度分析所蕴涵的知识。

二、解题的基本思路:

1、从方法入手:先判断材料所持方法(手段)——根据知识体系中原理和方法(手段)的固定搭配得出基本原理。

2、判断方法最主要的依据是材料中的重点语句,对重点语句进行范畴归属判断,进而了解所持手段(方法)。

3、审题时应注意题目的限制性要求,并由此得出知识体系的大范围。

4、应注意材料中的效果,如果效果是积极的,说明所持方法(手段)是正确的;如果效果是消极的,说明所持方法(手段)是错误的。

错误的情况有很多种,最主要有以下几种:(1)与正确方法(手段)相对立;(2)主次颠倒;(3)主次不分;(4)割裂本来存在的联系。

5、应对材料进行层次分析,以便与方法(手段)相对应。找出所包含条件(重点语句),回答时决不能漏掉材料中所包含条件。

三、答题的基本步骤:

1、先回答基本原理

2、其次回答方法(手段)要求

3、把方法细化成几个方面,与材料层次对接,用材料替代原理,一一对应。

四、检查阶段:

1、应注意材料中所包含的条件是否全部用完,如果没有用完,说明前面所述知识点还有缺漏,应补齐。

2、检查重点语句范畴判断是否正确。

3、检查步骤是否完整、规范。是否按照:原理———方法———实践分析的步骤。

五、复习的基本要求:

1、应分层对知识进行整理,分为“是什么”、“为什么”、“怎么办”三部分,其中,“是什么”和“为什么”属于基本原理:“怎么办”属于方法(手段)。

2、“是什么”主要用与范畴判断,用以审题中的思路引入,即材料中重点语句范畴判断,借以得出原理。

3、“为什么”主要指关系、地位和作用、意义等,它是方法(手段)的理论出发点。

4、“怎么办”是掌握知识点的落脚点,也是材料引入的关键。“怎么办”不能停留在课本的水平上,还应与重大时事、党的路线、方针、政策相联系,把党的路线、方针、政策细化、归并入课本的基本点。

5、应对所有知识进行规范化整理,一方面,把所有知识分解为基本原理和基本要求(方法或手段)两大块;另一方面,按大、中、小三个

角度进行整理,“大”指最基本的原理,“中”指课本的具体要求,“小”指党的路线、方针、政策(它是课本具体要求的细化);第

三、应注意知识之间的内在联系,进行横向整理,以便多角度地思考问题

分析题答题技巧材料分析题在近几年考研政治试卷中所占的分值比较重,需要考生加强训练。

(一)分析题

解答分析题的基本思路和步骤是:

1.仔细审题并抓关键词。大多数分析题是跨章节,甚至跨学科的。答题之前要仔细阅读题干、材料及问题,答题之前要仔细阅读题干、材料及问题,了解题目需要回答什么,为什么要这样回答,怎么回答。要注意思维的发散性。这是做好分析体的第一步,也是最关键的一步。找出本题目是关于哪个学科的哪个章节,在草稿纸上写下此章节内所有可能与本题有联系的基本概念及原理。对跨章节,甚至跨学科的题目,要注意思维的发散性。审题可以运用以下几种方法:

(1)逆向审题法:先搞清楚题目问什么?有几问?然后带着问题阅读材料。这样做可以不必要地重复审题,节省宝贵的考试时间。

(2)寻找关键词:抓关键词语,力求搞清每段材料的中心含义,努力回忆与此相关的课文理论,并注意筛选。

(3)分析层次法:对一大段材料的要分层并弄清每层意思,这种层次性既体现在题干的表述或材料中,也会明确出现在题后的设问中。通过分析,抓住试题的主旨,再按其要求分别回答,这样可以避免遗漏。

2.阅读材料并组织答案。在审清题意的基础上,仔细阅读题干或者材料。阅读时可边阅读边划出材料中带有结论性或倾向性的话语,或者在草稿纸上写下相关信息(注意不要沉溺于细节、事例或者数字),同时搜索、提取大脑中平时储存的相关知识,然后理清思路,组织答案。

3.答题时注意:

(1)凡问现象的问题,首先回答表象,即看到什么,就回答什么,不需太展开,简要回答即可。随后,必须回答现象之后隐含的实质(本质),这才是重点。

(2)凡是“分析”、“评述”的,就需要用原理紧扣材料进行分析。一般的思路是先表述相关原理,然后再联系材料中的现象进行分析、评述,可按是什么、为什么、怎么样的思路组织答案。

(3)回答问题注意层次性,要行文规范,简洁干练,表述准确,答案能紧扣要点,切忌东拉西扯、繁琐冗长。

(二)材料分析题

材料分析在2006年统一归进了分析题中,其形式独特,分值比例大,难度也不小,是考生考研中的一大难点,这里就单独列出再讲述一下其答题技巧。考生在解答材料分析题时要注意两点:一要注重联系实际,材料归纳出来后,用相关的事实理论做依据进行分析。二是结合理论分析问题时,要尽可能全面。材料涉及几个点,答题时就要将这几个点答全,每个点不需要展开太多,但要把基本要点说到。解答材料题时,尤其要注意层次和逻辑,不要自相矛盾,在答案中最好把观点一一罗列出来,便于阅卷教师找到要点。

解答材料式分析题的基本要求:在理论部分,要求准确选择与解题有关的基础知识。这是解

题的主导部分,是命题的出发点、立足点和依据。要准确、简洁地回答出有关理论知识内容。这一部分答好了,就能为下一步解题做好铺垫,使后面的分析论述有理有据。

首先,“掐头取尾”,看题干提示句和题后要求回答的问题。一般的材料题开题就有一句:“下面是一组关于......的材料”,这就给考生在阅读时获取什么样的信息界定了范围,使阅读不再盲目,以获取相关信息为重;然后,再迅速浏览题后问题,问题的要求又进一步缩小了信息取舍的范围,什么是“的”,在这里就确定了。最后,带着问题阅读材料。

其次,仔细而快速地阅读材料。认真研读试题材料,准确把握材料内容,深挖材料内涵。材料分析题的材料灵活多变,无一固定模式。有文字型的、图表型的:文字型的可分为摘自报刊、古籍、文件、人物讲话,也有命题者描述某种现象,提出几种观点的;图表型的有漫画、表格、地图、历史文物图片、函数图等。材料可能是一则,也可能有多则;既有单一类型的,也有文字型、图表型混合的;材料长短也各异,有的十分简短,有的篇幅冗长。不管材料以何种形式出现,认真阅读材料是基础,掌握其中信息是关键。

一般的材料提供信息很多,有主有次,还有重复的,这就提醒考生在做这类试题、阅读材料时,边读边用铅笔将含义相同的归类,并用1、2、3、......标注,对重要的核心句或者关键词,在下面画线,以备答题时直接应用,避免大量的重复阅读,造成无为的浪费。第三,利用获取的信息回答问题。在答题论述时,要求做到观点和材料的统一。这是解题的主体部分,要求考生用选定的基础理论知识,联系题中的材料进行分析论述,把理论与实际、观点与事实结合起来,即做到事理交融,观点统帅材料。要紧扣材料分析,或从材料中提炼出观点,或用观点分析材料,或用材料论证观点。防止就事论事,或就理论谈理论。第四,简短有力地做好小结。在小结部分,要牢牢抓住题意,适可而止。这是答题的结尾部分,是解题的落脚点。在结尾时,或针砭时弊,或点明意义,或联系自身,这些都要从题意出发,恰到好处,总的要求是思路清晰、表述简练、视角丰富,达到用画龙点睛、升华主题的目的就可。
