2. 时间标志:

when, while, as
Grammer
3. 过去进行时还可以和when, while, as引导的过去时间状语从句连用,形成复合句。
e.g. While the lights were changing to red, a car suddenly appeared round the corner.
正当交通信号灯要变成红灯的时候,一辆小轿车突然从拐角处驶出来。
One day, when Henry was working in a restaurant, a snake suddenly appeared.
一天,当亨利正在餐馆里工作时,一条蛇突然钻了出来。
I was trying to pick it up when it bit me again.
我正试图捡起(那条蛇),突然它又咬了我一口。
As the doctors were checking him, the pain got worse.
医生给他做检查时,疼痛加剧了。
when,while,as都可以引导时间状语从句,但用法区别非常大。
一、when可以和延续性动词连用,也可以和短暂性动词连用;而while和as只能和延续性动词连用。
e.g. They arrived while we were
having dinner. =
They arrived when we were
having dinner.
我们吃饭的时候他们到了。
二、由when引导的时间状语从句,如果主句是过去进行时,从句应该用一般过去时,表示一个动作正在进行的时候另一个动作突然发生了,强调后一动作发生的突然性。
e.g. We were talking when the teacher
came in.
我们正在讲话,老师(突然)进
来了。
三、当主句和从句的动作都是延续的或同时发生的,两句都用过去进行时的时候,多用while引导。
e.g. They were singing while were
dancing.
他们在唱歌,我们在跳舞。
