1 考点28 让步状语从句

高考频度：★★★★★

让步状语从句是状语从句中的一种。

引导让步状语从句的连词主要有以下这些：though, although, as; even if, even though;

whether...or...; no matter+疑问词，疑问词-ever。下面对这些连词引导的让步状语从句作一说明。

1. although/though引导的让步状语从句

although和though，都作＂虽然；尽管＂解，通常可以换用，although的语气较重。如果要强调＂但是＂语气，可使用yet，still或nevertheless来表示＂但是＂、＂依然＂或＂然而＂之意。

Although they have been talking for a long time, he cannot make her believe him.

虽然和她谈了半天，他还是不能让她信任自己。

3. as引导的让步状语从句

as引导让步状语从句时，意为＂尽管，虽然＂，从句多位于主句之前，而且必须使用倒装语序。通常如果从句中有形容词或名词作表语，则把表语置于句首，而且名词前要省略冠词；如果从句中有修饰动词的副词，则将该副词置于句首；如果从句中有情态动词，则将情态动词后的动词原形置于句首。此用法与though的倒装完全一致。(although无此用法)

Strong as you maybe, you cannot lift it. 虽然你可能很有力气，你却无法把它提起来。
