大学英语四级口语改错（2）

我和我的室友一起去商店.
Incorrect english:
I and my roommate went to the store.
Correct english:
My roommate and i went to the store.
解释:
这里的问题是:当i我与别的人称代词或名词同时作主语时,它们的顺序该如何安排?
规则是:如果主语包括i与别的人,i总是放在最后;而汉语中则习惯性把我放在第一,这与英语完全不问。
Examples:
Frad,john,mr.stfwart,and i live on the same street.
The group of athletes and i went to the football field together.
Bill and i do not have a very good relationship.
注意:
有多个主语时,以英语为母语的人通常用me作一个主语,并把它放在其他主语前面.语法上是错误的,
但你可能会听到:me and wes are going to watch the baseball game on tv tonight.
虽然他很矮，但是他能跑得很快.
Incorrect english:
Although he is very short, but he can run very fast.
Correct english:
Although he is very short, he can run fast
He is very short, but he can run fast.
解释:
这里的问题是:我们可以用 although 或 but ,但不能同时用，因为这是错误的，其中一个就已经表达了
“虽然...但是...”的意思。
规则是:although 比 but 更正规些。
Examples:
Although I’m tired, I still want to go out and see a movie.
I’m tired, but i still want to go out and see a movie.
Although Nancy does not like her boss, she likes going to work anyway.
Nancy does not like her boss, but she likes going to work anyway.
Although I asked him not to marry her, he did it anyway. I’m really mad at him.
I asked him not to marry her, but he did it anyway. I’m really mad at him.
