三、核心短语与固定搭配

• 连接两个并列分句时,not only 置于句首,前分句需部分倒装 —— Not only did he pass, but he also got an A.
四、核心语法:并列句(★重点 ★★难点)
(一)概念与基本结构
由并列连词把两个或两个以上的简单句(即并列分句)连接而成的句子叫并列句。各分句在语法上地位平等、互不修饰。
基本结构: 简单句 + 并列连词 + 简单句
1. The invention is useful, and it saves a lot of time.(递进)
1. He worked hard, but he failed at last.(转折)
1. Hurry up, or you will be late.(选择)
1. It was raining, so we stayed at home.(因果)
(二)四大并列连词用法一览
连词
逻辑关系
含义
例句
and
并列 / 递进
和;并且
He is clever and hard-working.
but
转折
但是
I like it, but it is too expensive.
or
选择 / 否则
或者;否则
Study hard, or you will fail.
so
因果(结果)
所以
He was ill, so he didn't come.
(三)其他并列连词 / 连接词
连词
含义
例句
for
因为(补充说明)
He must be tired, for he worked all day.
while / whereas
然而(对比)
Some like it, while others don't.
both ... and ...
……和……都
Both Tom and Jerry are here.
either ... or ...
要么……要么……
Either you or he is right.
neither ... nor ...
既不……也不……
Neither he nor I am late.
not only...but also
不但……而且……
Not only you but also she likes it.
(四)就近原则(并列主语时的主谓一致)
当并列主语由 either...or、neither...nor、not only...but also、there be 等连接时,谓语动词与最靠近它的主语保持一致。
结构
谓语就近
例句
either...or...
靠近的主语
Either the teacher or the students are here.
neither...nor...
靠近的主语
Neither Tom nor his friends are late.
not only...but also...
靠近的主语
Not only you but also he is right.
there be + 并列主语
靠近的主语
There is a pen and two books on the desk.
(五)并列句 vs. 简单句 vs. 复合句
类型
结构特征
例句
简单句
只有一个主谓结构
The phone changed the world.
并列句
两个及以上分句,用并列连词连接,地位平等
The phone is useful, and it is cheap.
复合句
一个主句 + 从句,从句修饰主句
The phone that I bought is smart.
⚠ ⚠ 高频易错点
• and / but / or / so 不能和 because、although 同时使用(中式英语)—— 误:Because he was ill, so he didn't come.
• 并列连词连接的两边成分要对等(词性、结构一致)—— I like reading and to swim.(误,应统一为 swimming)
• 逗号不能单独连接两个分句,必须有并列连词 —— I like it, he doesn't.(误,应加 but)
• or 表"否则"时,前句常为祈使句 / 将来时 —— Work hard, or you will fail.
✅ 解题三步法
• ① 读句子,判断分句之间是并列、转折、选择还是因果;
• ② 并列/递进→and;转折→but;选择/否则→or;因果(结果)→so;
• ③ 若是并列主语,再检查谓语是否"就近"一致。
五、情景交际句型
(一)谈论发明与创新常用句
1. What do you think is the most useful invention?
1. I think the smartphone is the greatest invention.
1. It makes our life more convenient and interesting.
1. It can help us keep in touch with others.
1. However, it also has some disadvantages.
(二)表达观点与设想
1. In my opinion, the Internet has changed our life a lot.
1. Not only can it help us study, but it also brings fun.
1. If I could invent something, I would invent ...
⚠ ⚠ 观点表达中的逻辑连接
• 陈述优点后用 and / moreover / besides 递进;
• 转向缺点用 but / however(however 后用逗号);
• 说明结果用 so / therefore。
六、阅读与写作
(一)阅读:说明发明的说明文策略
发明类说明文常按"发明名称—发明者—时间—作用—影响"展开。阅读时用笔圈出关键词,注意文中表示并列、转折、因果的连接词,它们往往是理解逻辑和解题的线索。
(二)写作模板:My Favorite Invention
✅ 写作框架(总—分—总)
• 开头:引出发明 —— Among all inventions, I think ... is the most useful.
• 主体:作用与影响 —— It can help us ...; Not only ... but also ...; However, ...
• 结尾:评价 —— In short, it makes our life better, and I can't live without it.
【范文】My Favorite Invention
Among all inventions, I think the Internet is the most useful. It makes our life more convenient and interesting. We can not only study online but also keep in touch with friends through it. However, spending too much time online is bad for our health. In my opinion, the Internet has changed the world a lot, so we should use it wisely. I believe it will bring us a better future.
【亮点拆解】
1. 并列句:It makes ... and (makes) ...(and 连接并列谓语)
1. 递进:not only ... but also ... 连接两个并列分句
1. 转折:However 引出对立观点
1. 因果:so we should use it wisely 表结果
