no matter what（who,which,when,etc.）与 whatever（whoever,whichever,whenever,etc.）都可以应用在让步状语从句中，但是在特殊情况下，只能用whatever。下面，小编就来为大家简单介绍一下。

当引导让步状语从句时, 两者相同, 可以互换, 但当引导名词性从句（主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句和同位语从句）时则只能用whatever（whoever,whichever,whenever,etc）.

例如：　

Don't be overawed by people in authority, however important they are.  不管当官儿的职权有多大，都不要被他们吓倒。

The effect of pushing the button is the same no matter who does it.  不论是什么人去按电钮,其效果都是一样的.

下面句子不能用no matter结构 (no matter不能引导名词性从句）:

Whoever comes back first is supposed to win the prize. (主语从句)

I am ready to do whatever you want me to .（宾语从句）

例证：Whatever you did, I will accept.为让步状语从句.

I will accept whatever you did.为宾语从句.

用though/although, as 引导让步状语从句时,句中不能用but表示转折语气.

×：Though he looks weak, but he is healthy.

√：Though he looks weak, he is healthy.

或者说：He looks weak, but he is healthy. 我自己认为让步就是存在一定条件下的说法.

除以上提到的从句连词外,表示让步的介词短语有despite, in spite of, 后接名词.eg. Despite all these facts, we cannot ignore the advantages of learning through internet.

however 用作副词,不可连接句子. 但可置于第二句的句首、句末或句中.要特别注意标点的使用.

eg: Alice is a good student．However, she has one shortcoming．

He has not arrived. He may, however, come later.

The composition is all right. There is room for improvement, however.
