（一）分类

英语中用来连接并列句的连词成为并列连词，它们可以分为两大类：一类是由单个单词组成的，称为简单并列连词，如and、but等；另一类是有两个单词配对组成的，称为复合并列连词（如both...and...、either...or...等）。

（二）简单并列连词

英语中常用的简单并列连词主要包括：and, but, or, so, for, while, yet, nor。

（三）and

and表示“和；而且”，主要用来连接顺承或递进关系的并列句。如：

He stood up and walked towards the door.

She likes apples and she likes red apples better.

（四）but

but表示“但是”，主要用来连接转折关系的并列句。如：

I like chicken, but my husband doesn't.

She tried to get the coins, but it was too late.

（五）or

or表示“或者；否则”，主要用来连接选择或转折关系。试比较：

Did he give him a book or a pen just now?

Stay calm, or you may fail the test.

（六）so

so表“因此；所以”，主要用来连接表结果的并列句。如：

They started early this morning, so they arrived there on time.

He is in charge of the firm, so you may ask him for help.

（七）for

for表“因为”，主要用来来接表原因的并列句，起着补充说明作用，但其引导的句子不能位于句首。如：

It must have rained last night, for the street is wet all over.

（八）while

表“然而；而”，主要用来连接对比关系的并列句。如：

She is fond of pop music while he is interested in jazz.

（九）yet

yet表“然而”，主要用来连接转折关系的并列句，可以与and连用。如：

It's a small car, yet it's surprisingly spacious.

He has a good job, and yet he never seems to have any money.

（十）nor

nor表示“也不；也没有”，主要用来连接与前文内容相同的并列句，常用倒装结构，相当于neither。如：

She doesn't like them and nor does Jeff.

There was no physical contact, nor did I want any.
