由并列连词连接、含有两个或更多主谓结构的句子叫并列句。纵观历届高考试题,对并列句的考查主要涉及以下几种情况。
一、考查表示转折对比关系的并列连词
1. but (但是,可是,而,却)
连接两个简单句,有时句中某些词可以省略;连接两个并列成分,可以放在一个句子的句首,后面不接逗号。

② There are many kinds of sports, ________ my favorite is swimming.
A. as B. then C. so D. but
答案:① D ② D
2. yet (但是;尽管如此)
可连接两个句子,用逗号分开,也可在yet前加and,还可以放在一个句子的句首。例如:
The car is old, yet it is in good condition. 这辆车旧了,但车况很好。
He\'s pleasant enough, and yet I don\'t like him. 他人很好,但我却不喜欢他。
3. while (而,但是,可是,却)
while作连词用时,可表示对比或转折关系。

二、 考查表示因果关系的并列连词
1. for (因为)
由并列连词for引导的分句常置于句子后部,而且常用逗号与前面的分句隔开。for分句主要是对前一分句补充说明理由或推断原因。for分句不能用来回答why问句。
