时间状语从句
在英语中,用从句表达一件事情或一个行为发生的时间,这个从句就叫时间状语从句。时间状语从句常用when, while, before, after, as soon as, since, until/till等连词引导。
类型 用法 例句
1.由when引导的时间状语从句 when意为“当……的时候”,既可以表示某一时间点发生的事,又可以表示在某一时间段发生的事,主句与从句描述的动作或事情可以同时发生,也可以先后发生。所以when引导的从句中,谓语动词既可以是延续性动词,也可以是瞬间动词。 The students were sleeping when the teacher came into the classroom.当老师走进教室的时候,学生们正在睡觉。
He called me when I stayed at home.当我待在家的时候,他给我打电话。
类型 用法 例句
2.由while引导的时间状语从句 while强调主句和从句中所表示的动作在同一时期发生。由于while从句表示持续的行为,所以从句中要用延续性动词或状态动词,并且延续性动词常用进行时态。 While I'm doing my homework, my mom is cooking dinner.
当我在做作业的时候,妈妈正在做晚饭。
when/while
1. I saw my baby girl singing in the room _________ I got home.
2. _________ we’re staying with our friends, we will spend one day in Qingdao.
3. My mother was cooking meals __________ my father was watching TV.
4. The class were talking loudly _________ Ms came in.
when
When/While
do/did + when + do/did
do/did + when/while + be doing
while
be doing+ while + be doing
when
be doing+ when + do/did
两个必须!!
1.while 后必须加be doing;
2.若两边都是be doing,只能用while。
since
I have known Bill since he was born.
We have celebrated the festival since the first pioneers arrived.
since:自从,通常与现在完成时连用。
现完+since+过去式
Grammar
4. after的用法
“在……之后”
(1)prep.
After testing, some students look very happy.
考试结束后,一些学生看起来很高兴。
(2)adv.
It happened twenty years after.
这事发生在20年之后。
(3)conj.
We all missed you after you left.
你走了以后,我们都很想你。
Grammar
5. as soon as 的用法
“一……就……”,主句为一般将来时,从句用
一般现在时代替一般将来时(主将从现)。
I will tell him the news as soon as he comes back.
他一回来我就把这个消息告诉他。
since可引导时间状语从句, 意思是“自从 ……的时候起;从此;从 ……以来; ……以后”等。
在否定句中,常与表示瞬间性动作的动词连用,意为“直到……才”,这时till 和until可以与before 替换。
如:
Last night I waited until eleven o’clock, but he didn’t return.
昨天晚上我一直等到11点, 但他还没回来。
My son won’t come home until it is dark.
我儿子不到天黑不回家。
until(=till)在肯定句中,常与延续性动词连用,意为“到……为止”;
若since引导的状语从句的谓语动词是终止性动词(如go, come, leave, start, begin等)的过去时, 则从句表示的时间是“从该动作开始的那一时刻起”。这是最常见的一种用法。
He has studied very hard since he came to our school.
自从来到我们学校, 他学习就非常努力。
目的状语从句
1.在复合句中作目的状语的从句称为目的状语从句。目的状语从句可置于句首成句尾。常用引导词有so that,in order that,for fear that,in case (that),for the purpose that等。
so that意为“以便,为了”,表示目的。so that 常位于句中连接两个分句,从句中多用can,could,may等情态动词。如:
