小知识
Though is fine conjunction. It's no “but” or “however”, though it is a useful word, when you want let a reader know that two ideas are opposing one another.
There are two basic kinds of the so-called coordinating conjunctions: those that connect similar thoughts — for example, “and” — and those that disconnect similar thoughts — for instance, “but” and “however.” Though fits into the second category. For example “Though Prince is considered 'older' by rock-star standards, his concerts put those of most kids half his age to shame.” The “though” in that sentence gets its power from the comma at the midpoint, because that's where the two opposing ideas meet. The word Though at the beginning tells us to look for that comma.
实用短语
单词用法
though permissible 虽然允许 ; 尽管允许
Though Busy 尽管忙碌 ; 虽然忙碌着
though beautiful 尽管漂亮
though和although在意义上几乎毫无区别，但文体上后者是较正式用词，语气比though强。此外，在习惯单词用法上这两个词仍有以下一些差异：
1.though可引出倒装语序的让步状语从句，although则不能。
2.though可与even连用，although则不能；在as though结构中，只用though，不能用although。
3.though可以置于从句末，而although则不能。
4.引出省略句时，通常用though。
as：引出让步状语从句只用于倒装语序结构中，语气强于上述两个连词。
因为在英语中though和but都是从属连词，如果同时使用了那么这个句子就没有主句了，所以只能用一个，确保一个主句和一个从句构成完整的主从复合句。
