Grammar Points

以……之名in the name ofHSK 6

This pattern means using a certain reason, slogan, or excuse as a name or justification for an action. It often has a critical tone in news or formal writing, suggesting that the stated reason may not be the real purpose.

"以所谓“岛屿防御”之名,日本自卫队于23日实施大规模组织调整。"

"我们一贯反对以南海问题为借口强化军事同盟,搞有针对性的军事部署。"

除了……还/也……besides / in addition toHSK 3

This pattern is used to add another item, action, or fact. It means that in addition to A, there is also B. It is very common in both spoken and written Chinese.

"除了“战斧”巡航导弹,日本自研的远程巡航导弹也列装自卫队。"

"除了南海,菲律宾近年来试图将南海和台海进行联动。"

不仅……而且……not only... but also...HSK 4

This pattern connects two related points and emphasizes that the second point adds even more information. It is used to show progression: not only A, but also B.

"不仅影响民众的认知,而且还影响日本自卫队官兵的认知。"

"日本是一个对二战没有反省的国家,日本国内极右翼思潮和一些扩军叙事是很危险的,不仅影响民众的认知,而且还影响日本自卫队官兵的认知。"

虽然……但/可是……although... still...HSK 4

This pattern expresses contrast. The first part gives a fact or concession, and the second part gives a different or unexpected result. In formal writing, 但 is often omitted if the contrast is already clear.

"虽然不少军舰和反导系统被抽调到中东,但在西太方向依然“手上有牌”,可以用于牵制和干扰中国。"

"虽然不少军舰和反导系统被抽调到中东,但在西太方向依然“手上有牌”。"

不……,否则……otherwise / if notHSK 5

This structure is used to warn about consequences. The first part usually gives advice, a command, or a necessary action; 否则 introduces the negative result if that action is not taken.

"国际社会必须坚决遏阻“新型军国主义”滋长蔓延,否则后患无穷。"

"我们敦促菲方不要挑战中方维护自身主权和权益的坚定决心,立即停止侵权滋事,停止一切危险挑衅行径,否则只会自食苦果。"
