并列句由两个或两个以上的简单句构成,中间由连词连接。连词(conjunction,缩写为conj.)是一种虚词,不能独立作句子成分。我们已学过的and、but、or、so(so 也可作连接副词)等都是并列连词,用于表示并列、转折、选择等关系。
1.两个或两个以上的简单句由并列连词连接起来构成并列句。并列句常见结构是:简单句+并列连词+简单句。连词前一般用逗号(也可以不用)。例如:
My name is Lin Lin, and I really enjoy singing Beijing opera.
I wanted to sing, but I didn’t feel confident enough to do that.
She was tired, so she stopped to rest.
如果简单句间的关系不是很紧密,并列连词可单独引导一个句子。例如:
I was the youngest player. I knew I was not tall and strong enough. And I wanted to be better. So I practiced more after training.
2.连接副词也可以用来连接并列句。例如:
I want to buy a new computer — however, I don’t have enough money.
My brother had his breakfast, then he went to school.
并列句(Compound sentences)
Read the sentences and pay attention to the words in yellow. Then find more examples in the passage and underline them.
My name is Lin Lin, and I really enjoy singing Beijing opera.
I wanted to sing, but I didn’t feel confident enough to do that.
