though在句中的词性和理解

问题描述

老师好！

Though much more difficult to understand than the traditional paintings, they were more thought-provoking.

我是这么理解的，though本身既能做连词也能做副词，在本句中，由于“Though much more difficult to understand than the traditional paintings,”缺少主语，因此是副词，但是though做副词一般都是做句中或句尾同时需要用逗号隔开，就矛盾了，请老师解惑！谢谢！

老师答疑

曹老师：

though作为连词引导让步状语从句。省略了和主句相同的主语和be。还原主语和be则为：

Though they were much more difficult to understand than the traditional paintings,they were more thought-provoking.

陈老师：

同意曹老师解答观点。

Though much more difficult to understand than the traditional paintings, they were more thought-provoking.

Though （they were 省略了)much more difficult to understand than the traditional paintings, they were more thought-provoking.

在状语从句中，如果主从句主语相同，可以省略从句的主语+谓语

【1】让步状语从句的省略

Though 【he is】a young man, he has made several invention.

He is a good man, though sometimes【he is】rather dull

Even if 【I am】invited to, I will not go to such a bad lecture.

Though 【he was】intelligent, he was very poorly educated

【2】时间状语从句的省略

Work hard when 【you are】young ,or you'll regret.

趁年轻要努力学习，要不然你会后悔的。

When 【she was】young, she began to learn to play the violin.

Mary often helped her classmates when 【she was】free.

Most pregnant women remain off cigarette while【they are】carrying children.

还有其他状语从句省略和前面2种都一样，这里就不全部列出来了。
