两句的连接方法
1-3：分号
1.此类符号等于逗点+连词(and,so,but...)
例：he is a man of principle;we all respect him.
=he is a man of principle,so we all respect him.
（他是个有原则的人，因此我们都尊敬他。）
he is a photographer;quite often he travels abroad to take pictures.
=he is a photographer,and quite often he travels abroad to take pictures.
（他是个摄影家，他常常出国摄影。）
he is nice;none likes him,though.
=he is nice,but none likes him.
（他人很好，然而没人喜欢他。）
2.句号代替逗号
句中的并列词语原本用逗点相隔，再以并列连词相连，但若某并列词语中间有插入语时，会多出一些逗点。为了句意清楚起见，可用分号取代逗点。
同学看了上面这一段话后，一定会说：“哇塞！语无伦次！”别急，我们且先看下面的例子：
例：he said that he had no money,that he had no friends to count on,and that he expected me to help him.
上列句中有三个that从句，以and连接，共做said的宾语，因此这三个从句称为并列从句，用逗点相隔。现在要在句中加入插入语，请注意标点符号的变化：
例：he said that he had no money;that,because of his ill temper,he had no friends to count on;and that he expected me to help him.（他说没钱，又因脾气不好而没有朋友可依靠，所以希望我能帮助他。）本句用分号置于并列that从句之前，使读者很容易看出三个从句的并列关系。同理，原句：he enjoys dancing,swimming and jogging.置入插入语语：he enjoys dancing,which is his hobby;swimming,which he often does on sundays;and jogging.（他喜欢跳舞，那是他的嗜好；也喜欢周日去游泳；还喜欢慢跑。）
