Grammar
although / though
although的意思是“尽管，虽然”，用来引导让步状语从句，在一般情况下可以和though互换，但though比较口语化。而although较为正式，另外although的语气比though重。当although / though引导的从句放在句首时，主从句之间要用逗号隔开。
注意：although和 though都不能和 but在同一个复合句里连用。
( )1). ____ she is young, she knows quite a lot.
A. When B. However C. Although D. Unless
( )2). He went out without an overcoat ____ it was so cold.
A. although B. so C. if D. for
2.so that
so that 用来引导目的状语从句, 意思为“以便, 为了”， 从句中常用can (could), will (would), may (might)等情态动词。so ... that ...用来引导结果状语从句。
1).Mr. Green speaks very loudly _______ all the people can hear him clearly.
A. when B. so that C. because
2). He got up early this morning_______________he could catch the early bus .今天早上他早起，以便能赶上早班车。
3).He got up____________early this morning ______________ he caught the early bus . 今天早上他起得非常早，这样就赶上了早班车。
3.until
A.until可用作时间连词, 用来谈论事情发生的时间。until表示"直到…为止"。用来引导时间状语从句, 在句中可以放在主句之前或之后。
1).Keep straight on __________________ you get to the church.
一直朝前走就走到教堂了。
2).I __________ wake up _______________ I heard the alarm clock.
直到听到闹钟的铃声我才醒来。
在引导时间状语从句时，适合“主将从现”原则， 即主句如用一般将来时， 从句一般用一般现在时。同步推之，如果主句用过去将来时，从句一般用一般过去时。
B. until除了可用作连词，还可用作介词+名词、代词或动名词:
1).We did not notice this matter yesterday.
C. till 与until为同义词， 都可表示“直到…为止”， 但如果要表示“直到…才”， 一般用not ... until结构， 且till引导的时间状语从句通常只能放在主句之后。
2. —It’s too late. I have to go now.
—Oh, it’s raining outside. Don’t leave _______ it stops.
A. since B. until C. While
3. —Hey, man. You can’t cross the street now. You have to wait ______ the traffic turn green.
—Oh, sorry and thank you.
A. when B. after C. until D. while
常用提建议的句型
Why don't you do sth. = Why not do sth. 你为什么不做某事？
Shall we do sth. 我们做某事好吗？
Let's do sth. 让我们做某事吧。
You/We had better do sth. 你（们）/我们最好做某事。
