Unit 3 Growing Up
连词 although、until 和 so that的用法
（时间：40分钟，满分：80分）
一、although 引导让步状语从句
although 意为虽然、尽管，引导让步状语从句，表示主句和从句之间存在转折、让步关系，语气比
though 稍正式一些。
遵循“though/although 不能和 but 连用”的原则，句中只能出现一个转折连词，不可同时用 but。
可放在句首或句中，从句可置于主句前或后。
1. 置于句首
Although it rained heavily, we still went out.
虽然雨下得很大，我们还是出去了。
Although he is young, he knows a lot.
尽管他年纪小，却懂得很多。
2. 置于句中
主句 + although + 从句.
He went to work although he was ill.
他虽然生病了，还是去上班了。
易混提示
though 与 although 用法基本一致，though 更口语化，although 更正式。
错误表达：Although he is tired, but he keeps working. ❌
正确表达：Although he is tired, he keeps working. ✅
二、until 引导时间状语从句
until 意为直到……为止，引导时间状语从句，表示动作或状态持续到某个时间点才结束。
1. 肯定句中：主句动词为延续性动词
表示“主句动作一直持续，直到从句时间发生才停止”。
结构：主句（延续性动词）+ until + 从句/时间点
I will wait until you come back.
我会一直等到你回来。
He lived in the city until he was 18.
他在这座城市一直住到18岁。
2. 否定句中：主句动词为短暂性动词常用结构 not... until...，意为“直到……才……”，表示动作直到从句时间才开始发生。
结构：主语 + don’t/doesn’t/didn’t + 短暂性动词 + until + 从句
She didn’t go to bed until her mother came home.
直到妈妈回家，她才上床睡觉。
The baby didn’t stop crying until it saw its mother.
婴儿直到看见妈妈才停止哭泣。
三、so that 引导目的状语从句
含义：为了、以便，强调主句动作的目的。
从句中常出现 can / could / may / might / will / would 等情态动词。
I get up early so that I can catch the first bus.
我早起，以便能赶上第一班公交车。
She spoke loudly so that everyone could hear her.
她大声说话，为了让每个人都能听见。
可同义替换：in order that（更正式）、to / in order to（接动词原形，简单句）
