标题: 请教个although接分词的问题 [打印本页] 作者: Chuckle 时间: 2013-6-27 22:24 标题: 请教个although接分词的问题 我看OG 13 SC第74题的解释中说“Although is a conjunction and should be followed by a finite clause with a subject, not by a participle”。
这句话的意思是说although根本不能接分词吗?
可是我看平时although接分词的句子很多呀!
比如:Although working very hard, he failed to pass the exam.
到底although能不能接分词呢? OG的这句话又该怎么理解呢? 作者: bejamin1111 时间: 2013-6-28 01:43
连词,连接两个完整的句子,你的例子有问题作者: kiwifoodtown 时间: 2013-6-28 09:46
尽管连词后面必须接从句,但如果是分词短语作状语的,是可以与连词连用的,这相当于简化后的状语从句保留了连词。这里有两个例子就很说明问题。
Although still running in a number of cities, the electric trolley has for the most part fallen into disuse.
Although usually living on or under rocks or coral reefs, marine snails have been observed in a great variety of habitats.
