一.why don’t you +v.动词原形…?
Why don’t you+动词原形+其他成分?
= Why not + 动词原形+其他成分?表示提建议。
如何提建议?
1.主语是第一人称 I 或 we,可以用“Shall I+do sthl.(v.原形 )?”或
“Shall we +do sth.(v.原形)?” 表示建议并征求对方意见。如:

go
come
2.可以用“Let’s +do(动词原形)sth. ”来提出建议,let后面的宾语如
果是代词,应用宾格,后面接不定式省略“to”。如:

我们晚饭后去散散步吧,好吗?
2).Let's it a little earlier, OK(make)? 我们就早一点吧,好吗?

如:
1).Would you like a cup of coffee? 你想来杯咖啡吗?
2). Would you like with me(study)?

2.What about going for a walk?
3.How about going for a walk?
4.Why not go for a walk?
5.Would you like to go for a walk?
6.What do you think of going for a walk?
二. 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。
1). I gave him some advice, he didn’t take them.
虽然我给了他一些建议,但他没有采纳。
2). __________________he was tired, he kept on working.

Although
Although/though
Notice:although和
though都不能和but在同
一个复合句里连用。
三. 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 D.after
when 当…的时候;so that为了,目的是;because因为;本句中,so

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.
