状语从句
1. 定义: 在复合句中修饰主句中的动词、形容词或副词等的句子称为状语从句。
2. 分类:状语从句是由从属连词引导的,按其作用主要可分为时间状语从句、地点状语从句、原因状语从句、条件状语从句、目的状语从句、结果状语从句、让步状语从句、比较状语从句等几类。
状语从句使用要点
使用状语从句有两点要注意:一是状语从句中连词的选用,二是状语从句的时态。
1. 状语从句中连词的选用
状语从句中连词的选用是由句子所表达的逻辑意义决定的,只要知道各种连词的意思和功能就能正确使用。

when: 既可以和延续性动词连用,也可以和非延续性动词连用。
while: 只能和延续性动词连用;从句中常用进行时态,表示
从句的动作与主句的动作同时发生。
e.g.
When the teacher______(come) in, I___________ (sleep).
= While/When I was sleeping, the teacher came in.
was sleeping
came
