cj и, а, с (1). Союз and соединяет глаголы, обозначающие действия, совершаемые одним и тем же лицом, предметом или группой лиц, в утвердительных предложениях. В отрицательных предложениях союз and не употребляется. В этих случаях употребляется сочетание never…or:She never writes or reads in the evening — По вечерам она не пишет и не читает.
(2). В разговорной речи союз and используется с рядом глаголов, таких, как to come, to go, to stay, to stop, to try, to wait, вместо частицы to и последующего инфинитива. При этом такие сочетания описывают только одно действие и наиболее часто используются для выражения приглашения, предложения, увещевания:Come and see us more often. — Приходите к нам почаще.
Let's go and play chess. — Пойдемте поиграем в шахматы.
We stayed and had dinner. — Мы остались пообедать.
В этой конструкции глаголы to try и to wait обычно употребляются в форме Future:I'll try and answer the question. — Я попытаюсь ответить на этот вопрос.
I'll wait and see/I'd rather wait and see how things go. — Я посмотрю/я лучше посмотрю, как пойдут дела.
(3). Однородные подлежащие, соединяемые союзом and, как правило, согласуются с глаголом-сказуемым во множественном числе:My friend and his sister are now on holiday.
(4). Подлежащее, состоящее из двух однородных существительных, соединенных союзом and, согласуется с глаголом-сказуемым в единственном числе в случаях:а) если оба слова характеризуют одно и то же лицо (один и тот же предмет, одну и ту же идею): The great scientist and social leader begins a new campaign — Этот великий ученый и общественный деятель начинает новую кампанию (В этом случае артикль употребляется только один раз. Повторение артикля перед каждым существительным указывает на то, что это разные лица, и в этом случае глагол-сказуемое употребляется во множественном числе (см. 3): A great scientist and a social leader begin a new campaign — Большой ученый и крупный общественный деятель начинают новую кампанию);б) если однородные слова описывают одно целое:Bread and butter is good to have for breakfast — На завтрак хорошо съесть бутерброд с маслом.
Black and white dress was very becoming to her — Ей очень шло черно-белое платье;
в) при инвертированном порядке слов после наречий there, here, которые объединяют предметы ситуационно в один комплекс:Here is your hat and gloves — Вот они ваша шляпа и перчатки.
There comes the old man and his son — Вот идут старик с сыном.
г) если подлежащие выражены инфинитивами (но не герундиями!):(5). Если союз and соединяет определения к существительному, то: а) артикль может быть употреблен перед каждым определением. В этих случаях существительное стоит в форме множественного числа, что, таким образом, указывает на то, что речь идет о двух разных предметах или лицах, и глагол употребляется в форме множественного числа:To work in the garden and thus make his living was what he dreamt of — Работать в саду и этим зарабатывать себе на жизнь было его мечтой.
A black and a white dogs were sitting at the doors — У дверей сидели черная и белая собаки;
б) артикль может быть употреблен только один раз. В этом случае существительное стоит в форме единственного числа, что указывает на то, что оба определения относятся к одному и тому же предмету:A white and black dog was sitting at the door — У двери сидела черно-белая собака.
(6). Идею соединения могут передавать разнообразные слова и словосочетания, весьма близкие по значению к союзу and: also, as well, too, not only… but also, besides, in addition to:We went to the circus. We visited the museum as well.
We went to the circus. We went to the museum too.
We went to the circus as well as the zoo.
We went to the circus. We also visited the zoo.
Not only did we go to the circus, we also went to the zoo.
Besides going to the zoo, we went to the circus.
In addition to visiting the zoo, we went to the circus.
Paul went to the circus. So did Peter.
Конструкция not only… (but) also требует инвертированного порядка слов. (7). Предложения, соединенные союзом and, отделяются друг от друга запятой:We went into mountains, and we stayed there for a few weeks.
Если часть сложного предложения, вводимая besides, in addition to, not only, стоит в начале сложного предложения, то она отделяется запятой:Besides buying these books, we bought a few pictures.
In addition to visiting the zoo, we went to the circus.
Not only did we go to the circus, we also went to the zoo.

his valet no mud can soil us but the mud we throw no names, no pack-drill no news good news no one but the wearer knows where the shoe pinches none is so blind as they who will not see none of us is perfect nothing is certain but the unforeseen nothing is easy to the unwilling nothing is so good but it might have been better nothing is stolen without hands nothing new under the sun nothing seems quite as good as new after being broken an old poacher makes the best keeper once is no rule one dog barks at nothing, the rest bark at him one good turn deserves another one half of the world does not know how the other half lives one hand washes the other one man's meat is another man's poison one picture is worth ten thousand words one volunteer is worth two pressed men one whip is good enough for a good horse; for a bad one, not a thousand opposites attract each other the orange that is squeezed too hard yields a bitter juice other people's burdens killed the ass out of the mire into the swamp painted flowers have no scent paper is patient: you can put anything on it people condemn what they do not understand pigs might fly the pitcher goes often to the well please ever; tease never plenty is no plague the porcupine, whom one must handle gloved, may be respected but is never loved the proof of the pudding is in the eating the remedy is worse than the disease reopen not the wounds once healed a rolling stone gathers no moss the rotten apple injures its neighbors scratch my back and I shall scratch yours the sea refuses no river seize what is highest and you will possess what is in between seldom seen, soon forgotten silence scandal by scandal the sharper the storm, the sooner it's over the sheep who talks peace with a wolf will soon be mutton since we cannot get what we like, let us like what we can get small faults indulged in are little thieves that let in greater solitude is at times the best society some people are too mean for heaven and too good for hell the soul of a man is a garden where, as he sows, so shall he reap sour grapes can never make sweet wine sow a thought and reap an act the sow loves bran better than roses a stick is quickly found to beat a dog with still waters run deep stoop low and it will save you many a bump through life a straw shows which way the wind blows a stream cannot rise above its source the style is the man the

sweetest nuts have the hardest shells the tail cannot shake the dog take things as they are, not as you'd have them tastes differ there are more ways of killing a dog than hanging it there is always room at the top there is life in the old dog yet there is no rose without a thorn there is small choice in rotten apples there is truth in wine there's as good fish in the sea as ever came out of it they need much whom nothing will content they that dance must pay the fiddler they walk with speed who walk alone those who hide can find three removals are as bad as a fire to the pure all things are pure to work hard, live hard, die hard, and go to hell after all would be hard indeed too far east is west translation is at best an echo a tree is known by its fruit a tree often transplanted neither

pitch we weep when we are born, not when we die what can you have of a cat but her skin what can't be cured must be endured what matters to a blind man that his father could see what you lose on the swings, you gain on the roundabouts when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail when a dog is drowning, everyone offers him drink when in doubt, do nowt when interest is lost, memory is lost when a man lays the foundation of his own ruin, others will build on it when a river does not make a noise, it is either empty or very full when the devil is dead, he never lacks a chief mourner when two ride on one horse one must sit behind where bees are, there is honey where it is weakest, there the thread breaks who seeks what he should not finds what he would not why keep a dog and bark yourself? a wonder lasts but nine days the worth of a thing is best known by its want the world is a ladder for some to go up and some down would you persuade, speak of interest, not of reason you buy land, you buy stones; you buy meat, you buy bones you can take a horse to the water, but you cannot make him drink you can tell the day by the morning you cannot lose what you never had you cannot touch pitch and not be defiled you can't put new wine in old bottles you can't walk and look at the stars if you have a stone in your shoe your looking glass will tell you what none of your friends will zeal without knowledge is a runaway horse -
