英语学习者最先接触到的连词,恐怕非and莫属。它用于连接单词或句子中的并列部分,有“和、与、同”之义。总结起来,and主要有以下几种用法:
表语义增补:He has two books and three pens.
表转折:She is Jack of all trades and master of none.
表顺序:He came in and took his coat off.
表因果:The girl couldn't find her mother and began to cry.
表结果:Try again and you will succeed.
表对比:Lily likes music and Lucy is fond of reading.
表评注:She always looks down on others, and I don’t like this.
表目的:She will come and see me tomorrow. (主要用于go, come,try,stay等动词前,代替to)
表“加上”:2 and 2 makes 4.
表反复或连续:She tried and tried but failed.
表差别:I like city life but there are cities and cities.
还需要注意的是, “good/nice/fine + and + 形容词 (或副词)” 是一个强调句式,常用于口语。good/nice/fine + and有“很,非常”的意思,相当于 very 的作用。例如:
My bedroom is nice and warm. 我的卧室很温暖。(不是“我的卧室又好又温暖”。)
