　　MBA英語寫作復合句：

　　A Compound sentence is made up of two or more independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction, such as and , or ,nor ,but , for, yet. Each clause in a compound sentence must have a subject and a verb, is of equal importance, and can stand alone. (并列復合句是由兩個或兩個以上的獨立分句組成，由并列連接詞如and, or ,nor ,but , for ,yet等連接。并列復合句的各個獨立分句必須有主謂結構，同樣重要且意義獨立而完整。)

　　The following sample sentences indicate how coordinating conjunctions work to make compound sentences. (以下例句指示并列連接詞的用法。)

　　1. George has applied for a scholarship, and Diana has requested financial aid. (additional idea related to first idea)

　　2. Students may live in dormitories, or they may live in off-campus housing. (choice of two possibilities)

　　3. Gerry has completed two math courses, but he must still take calculus. (contrast with first clause)
