一、1、在引导让步状语从句的从属连词中,比较常见的有although, though, even though, even if, whether…or…等。 2、另外,以-ever结尾的连词如however, whatever, whoever, whenever, wherever等也可引导让步状语从句,其用法相当于no matter…。 3、注意,while和when除用于引导时间状语从句外,有时也可引导让步状语从句,其意为“尽管”“虽然”。 二、除了上诉常见的从属连词引导让步状语从句外,as 也可以引导让步状语从句,但是,as引导的让步状语从句必须以部分倒装的形式出现,被倒装的部分可以是表语、状语或动词原形,though也可用于这样的结构中,但although不可以这样用,例如: 引导让步状语从句时,as意为“虽然…但是”,“纵使…”之意”,“尽管”,通常从句要倒装,倒装的方法是将从句的表语或状语放在as之前,而用though引导让步状语从句时句字则不必倒装(口语中也可倒装). 1.
