（1） 并列连词代替从属连词的特点是让读者自己去补充所连接的两部分间的逻辑联系, 根据两部分的思想内容去推论, 从而达到思想表达生动、有力和鲜明的修辞效果。
① We were leaving the farm, and every farm worker seemed sorry.
② It is true he is young, but / and yet he is really good at go.
→It is true ... but... = It is true...and yet ...
=Indeed ... but =Indeed... and yet （的确..., 然而...）
（2） 表因果关系的and
① The teacher came, and class began.
② Tom is very tired, and really he should go to bed.
并列句的修辞作用在于它把两个或几个平行或对立的相关的思想联系在一起，构成一比较完整的思想，因而它比两个或几个孤立的简单句的思想内容要丰富得多, 逻辑关系要清楚得多。
（3） 两个以上的简单句合并成一个并列句 www.cooyu.net
① Tom is ill. He cannot study. He still attends school.
→Tom is ill and cannot study, yet he still attends school.
② He saw the boy in the street. He stopped to speak to him. He gave him a penny.
→Seeing the boy in the street, he stopped to speak to him and gave him a penny.
③ The hotel is made of brick, and the post-office is, too.
（4） 恰如其分地使用连词and容易收到流畅的效果。连词and可以交代连接的双方的相互关系, 如并列关系、先后关系、因果关系等。
① Early in the morning we met at the school gate and went there together.
→and连接的双方为met和went, 既交代了两个动作的先后顺序, 又避免了不必要的赘述。
② How glad we were to see the crops and vegetables growing well.
→and连接的双方为crops和vegetables两个名词。
③After a short rest, we had GREat fun singing and dancing,telling jokes or stories.
→and连接的双方为singing和dancing两个动名词。
