although...yet 以及 though...yet 用法分析

Although I now work more hours than I used to, yet I do receive a larger salary.

请问老师：although和副词yet连用，那这个yet表达什么意思呢？比如上面例句中yet是什么意思？

yet 的意思是“但是”“然而”“可是”，表转折。用于此义时，一般词典将其视为连词。如：

The path was dark, yet I slowly found my way. 路很黑，但我还是慢慢地摸到了路。

We thought the idea sounded tempting, yet common sense told us it wouldn't work. 我们认为这主意听起来很吸引人，但是常识告诉我们它行不通。

She played well, yet she didn't qualify for the finals. 她表现得不错，但是没能获得决赛资格。

但用于此义的 yet 有时与连词 and 连用，甚至用于 though / although...yet 这样的结构（虽然有人认为这并不是好的文体），此时的yet 仍表示“但是”“然而”“可是”，不过这样用的 yet 则被视为连接副词（现代英语称之为“联加状语”）。如：

Everyone seemed pleased, and yet I had the feeling that something was wrong. 每个人似乎都很高兴，然而我却觉得有点儿不对劲儿。

Though he was small, yet he was very strong. 他个子虽小，但很有力气。
