请教一题英语语法
Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips,computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools,relaxation will be in front of smell- television,and digital age will have arrived.
1)主干结构是几个并列的简单句：Children will play with dolls...,computers...will be regarded as...,relaxation will be in front of...,and digital age will have arrived.
为什么简单句可以直接用逗号并列?
不是一定要有连词吗?

答案

只有两个并列成分或分句时,按要求要用 and/or 连接；如果是三个以上并列,则要求在最后一个连接成分前用连词 and/or,其他只需要用逗号隔开即可；但是当强调所有并列成分或分句同等重要的时候,也可以在每个并列成分前都加上连词.
你提出的问题中包括四个并列分句：
1. Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips,
2. computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools,
3. relaxation will be in front of smell-television,
4. and digital age will have arrived.
* 其中最后一个分句前就有连词 and
* 之所以 and 前还有一个逗号,是由于前面的分句都很长,读者念到这里时需要略为停顿一下以便缓口气（逗号的作用就是句子中间的停顿）
