1.时间状语从句:
(1)当主句是一般将来时态或祈使句,表示将来的意义时,从句通常用一般现在时,简称“主将从现”。
I’ll ring you up as soon as I get to Beijing.我一到北京就给你打电话。
(2) when引导的时间状语从句,通常表示主句和从句的动作同时发生;
before表示主句的动作发生在从句的动作之前;
after则表示主句的动作发生在从句的动作之后;
as引导时间状语从句时,往往表示主句和从句的动作同时发生,不分先后。
(3)until/till引导的时间状语从句。
①主句的谓语动词是延续性动词时,主句用肯定形式,表示这一动作或状态一直延续到until/till所表示的时间为止。
I’ll wait for you till you come to see me.我会一直等到你来看我。
②主句的谓语动词是非延续性动词时,用否定形式表示主句的动作直到until所表示的时间才发生。构成句式notuntil,有时不用not,而用其他如never,nothing等表否定意义的词。
I didn’t go to bed until I finished my homework.我直到完成作业才去睡觉。
(4)since引导的时间状语从句,表示“自从……以来”,主句用一般现在时或现在完成时,从句用一般过去时。
