You can have a pizza, while your friends enjoy Japanese, Chinese or even a burger.
老师,这里while是连词虽然的意思,但为何although和though,不能填在这里?
网友对while 的使用方法,还没有把握。我来对你说:
1. while 放在句首表示“让步”,是从属连词,引导让步状语从句。意思跟though, although 相当,意为“虽然;尽管”。
比如:
While the numbers of such developments are relatively small, the potential market is large.
尽管这种增长的数目相对较小,但潜在的市场是巨大的。
While the modelling business is by no means easy to get into, the good model, male or female, will always be in demand.
尽管模特行业绝不是那样容易进入的,但好的模特,不论男女,一直需要的。
2. while 放在第2分句前,用作并列连词,引导并列分句,表示“对比”。意为“然而,但”,不是“虽然”。所以,网友的句子不可以换为though, although。
比如:
Marianne was tempted to turn the large rooms into traditional French-style salons, while Howard was in favour of a typically English look.
玛丽安娜想把这类大房间弄成传统法式客厅的样子,但霍华德喜欢典型的英式风格。
The first two services are free, while the third cosplayts £35.00.
