第八章并列句
　　由兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上互不依從的主謂結(jié)構(gòu)構(gòu)成的句子稱為并列句，各并列分句間用and, but, so, or等連詞連接，可以是并列、轉(zhuǎn)折、因果、選擇等關(guān)系
　　第一節(jié) 并列連詞
　　一、并列連詞
　　1. 最典型的并列連詞有：and, but, or, so, yet, for
　　I have studied English for almost 12 years, yet my spoken English is still very poor.
　　I was going to the cinema, but I lost my way.
　　We cann’t get there at time for we have been out of gas.
　　2. 固定搭配使用的并列連詞：
　　not only…but (also), not only…but…(as well), both…and,
　　either…or, neither…nor, too…to,
　　such(…)as, the same….as, between…and
　　as well as(注意和副詞as well相區(qū)別),　(not) so…as
　　as… as, not so much A as B(與其說(shuō)A不如說(shuō)B)
　　so/such a … that
　　例句：
　　1. The Empire State Building, once America’s tallest, is now surpassed by both the Sears Tower in Chicago and the World Trade Center in New York.
　　2. Clocks not only measure and tell time but also serve as decoration in homes and other buildings.

　　4. The boy is too young to lift this box.
　　5. According to psychologists, a person’s attentions is attracted not so much by the intensity of different signal as by their context, significance and information content.
　　并列連詞的固定搭配是改錯(cuò)題的重要考點(diǎn)，因此上述搭配必須渾熟于心，
　　例題：
　　(1)
　　According to cognitive theories of emotion, anger occurs when individuals believe have been harmed and that the harm was either avoidable and undeserved.
　　應(yīng)改為：both.
　　解釋：both...and...是固定搭配, 表示兩者都, either應(yīng)與or搭配,表或者
　　(2)
　　Providence, Rhode Island, is a busy manufacturing city and seaport, as well the state capital.
　　應(yīng)改為：as well as the.
　　解釋：as well as固定詞組, 表示也……，as well也有此意, 但只能修飾動(dòng)詞, 多放在句尾
　　(3)
　　Too much electric current may flow into a circuit as a result either of a fault in the circuit and of an outside event such as lightning.
　　應(yīng)改為：or
　　解釋：either… or…為固定搭配, 表示或者, 或是.
