Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.

【翻译】尽管有庆祝活动,但在美国,爵士乐的观众人数不断减少,年龄也越来越大,而且这种音乐无法与年轻一代联系在一起。

【分析】though 是一个“连接副词”,可以单独使用。表示“让步”,意为:“尽管如此”。例如:

Though, many people have been discussing the dangers of the Internet.   

尽管如此,许多人一直在讨论互联网的危险。

though 跟however 是“一对”连接副词。意思也是配对的:前者是“尽管”,后者是“然而”。

下面,重点讲讲“连接副词”和 however 的用法,由此,连接副词可见一斑:

▲英语中,副词这个词类可以细分,有些副词叫作“连接副词”。不同于从属连词,这类副词主要用来表示上下文之间某种关系,如:结果、条件、方式、转折和补充等。这些副词的位置相对比较灵活。常见的有:

however 不管怎样(表转折)

too 也 (表补充)

moreover 再者(表补充)

besides 况且(表补充)

otherwise 否则(表条件)

therefore 因此(表结果)

then 然后(表先后顺序)

though 但是,然而(表转折,用于句尾)

我们拿however 举个例子。

however 虽然是副词,但修饰整个句子,表示与前句在意义上的转折关系。however 的位置也同样很灵活,及可放在句首,句末,还可放在句中(主语和谓语之间,同样加逗号停顿)。试比较:

However, teaching is by no means an easy thing. 

然而,教书并不是一容易的事情。

Most of us, however, take life for granted. 

但是,我们大多数人把生活认为是理所当然的。

Every drug has possible side effects, however. 

然而,每一种药都可能有副作用。

从Though单独使用,并没有引导从句,你就应该知道此时的 though 是个副词,作连接性状语,类似于however的作用,即将本句和前一句在意义上连接起来(不是语法上),表示让步关系。

你在词典查一下 though 作为副词的意义和例句就知道了。下面我给你各举一个though作为连词和副词的例句。

Though he was very tired, he continued working.  though作为连词引导让步状语从句。

He was very tired. He continued working, though. though为副词,作连接性状语。
