(一) 概要?
连词是一种在句子与句子之间,短语之间以及名词等其他词语之间起连接作用的虚词,它不能单独作句子的成份。按其意义可分为并列连词和从属连词两大类。?并列连词连接的双方是对等的。常有的并列连词有and, both…and, either…or, neither…nor, not only…but also, as well as等。但如果连接的两部分意义不趋向一致,意义有转折的并列连词有:but, however, while (而),only (只不过)。还有表示选择关系的并列连词,如:or, or else, otherwise… 再有的是连接双方,互为因果,或表示前因后果的连词有:for, so, therefore (因此),then等。?从属连词在范围内常常用来连接名词性从句,如:that, if, whether, 其次用来连接状语从句。其中有原因状语从句,常用的连接词有:when while, as, since, before, after, once, as soon as, until, till 连接条件状语的连词有:if, unless, as long as 等,而原因状语的连接词有because, since, as, now that (既然)。目的、结果、方式、比较、地点等状语从句的连接词有:so that, so…that, such…that, as…as, than, where… 它们在句子与文章中几乎无处不见。?具体用法见下表。?

(二) 正误辨析?
[误] Both my parents are not here. They went to the concert just now.?
[正] Neither of my parents is here. They went to the concert just now.?
[析] 在中both一般用于肯定句中,如用于否定句中,其意义也不同于汉语,如:Both of us are not right. 在中应被理解为"我们俩不都对。"而Neither of us is right。 才能被理解为"我们俩无一正确"。?
[误] He or his parents has some tickets for the film.?
[正] He or his parents have some tickets for the film.?
[析] 由or 连接两主语时,谓语动词应与相临近的那一个主语保持一致。?
[误] You should study hard, and you won't pass the exam.?
[正] You should study hard, or you won't pass the exam.?
[析] or作为连词,这里的意思为"否则"。又如:Hurry up, or you'll be late for school.
[误] Though he is poor, but he is ready to help others.?
[正] Though he is poor, he is ready to help others.?
[正] He is poor, but he is ready to help others.?
[析] "虽然……但是"是中文中的常用结构,但在英文中用了"虽然"则不要用"但是",用了"但是"则不能再用"虽然",二者只可用其一。?
[误] Either you or I are on duty.?
[正] Either you or I am on duty.?
[析] either…or 连接两个主语时,其谓语动词与相临近的一个主语相呼应,这也叫作就近原则。类似的用法还有or, neither… nor, not only…but also等。?
[误] Tom is our English teacher and teaching English in our school now.?
[正] Tom is our English teacher and is teaching English in our school now.?
[析] 并列句中常常在后面的句子中作一些省略,以免重复,但不是所有词都可作任意的省略的。当你连接的是两个系动词时,后面的那个系动词不可省略,也就是讲连接的部分不可省略。
