    用一个句子作状语,这个句子就是状语从句。状语从句通常用来修饰句子、动词或形容词,表示时间、地点、条件、原因、目的、结果、方式、比较等。引导状语从句的连词叫从属连词。

    16-1 时间状语从句

    在句中相当于时间状语的从句叫时间状语从句。时间状语从句常由从属连词when,while,as,before,after,as soon as,since,till,until等引导。如:

    What are you going to be when you grow up ?你长大以后打算干什么?

    I will phone you as soon as I get there .我一到那儿就给你打电话。

    1.引导时间状语从句的从属连词及用法

    (1)when,while,as引导时间状语从句意为“当……时”。如:

    When the clock struck twelve ,all the lights went out.当时钟敲了十二下,灯全部都熄了。

    While Peter was reading ,his wife was cooking.彼得看书的时候,他妻子在做饭。

    He dropped the glass as he stood up .他站起来时,把杯子摔碎了。

    注意:

    ①when表示“当……时”,多用来表示时间点,也可表示时间段;从句中既可以用非延续性动词,也可用延续性动词;when 从句多用一般过去时,主句时态没有限制,根据具体情况而定;在将来时态中,常用when引导从句,且从句须用一般现在时代替将来时;when表示时间段时可与while通用,但从句中必须用延续性动词。如:

    I was just reading a book when she came into my room.她走进我房间时,我正在看书。

    When I got to the airport,the guests had left.当我赶到飞机场时,客人们已经离开了。

    When the manager comes here for a visit next week,I'll talk with him about this.下周经理来这参观时,我会和他谈谈此事。

    ②while表示“当……的时候;在……之时;在……期间”,所引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词必须是延续性动词或表示状态的动词,且通常用进行时。如:

    While my wife was reading the newspaper,I was watching TV.当妻子在看报纸的时候,我在看电视。

    You can't do your homework while you're watching TV.你不能一边看电视一边做家庭作业。

    ③as引导时间状语从句时,从句的谓语动词既可以是延续性的,也可以是非延续性的。当从句中的谓语动词是延续性动词,表示“当……的时候”时,往往可以与when或while通用,但as更侧重主句与从句的行为同时发生,常译作“随着……;一边……,一边……”。如:

    Kate read the book as she went along.凯特边走边读书。

    We took notes as we listened to the lecture.我们边听课边记笔记。

    (2)before引导时间状语从句意为“在……之前”。如:

    Don't jump off the train before it stops.火车停之前不要往下跳。

    Look at both ways before you cross the road.过马路之前左右两边都要看。

    I didn't know any English before I came here。我来这儿之前,一点英语都不懂。

    (3)after引导时间状语从句意为“在……之后”。如:

    I'll have a walk after I finish my work.我做完事后要去散步。

    After he locked the door,he left.他锁上门之后就走了。

    注意:

    为了表明动作的先后,从句中动词可用过去完成时,主句用一般过去时。如:

    After he had finished his work,he played a game of chess with his friends.他做完工作后,和朋友下了一会儿棋。

    (4)until,till引导时间状语从句意为“直到……为止”。如:

    They waited till/until I returned.他们一直等到我回来。

    Mr.Wang kept on explaining until the student understood.王先生反复地解释直到学生听懂了为止。

    注意:

    ①until在肯定句中只与延续性动词连用,在否定句中通常与非延续性动词连用,表示相应动作开始的时间,意为“直到……才”。如:

    He didn't leave until I came back.直到我回来他才离开。

    ②till用作连词,与until同义,两者经常可换用,只是 until 比 till 稍正式。在正式文体中,一般用 until,而在口语或非正式文体中则两者都可。till多与名词或较短的从句连用,而较长较复杂的成分多用 until;在句子开头时,用 until而不用till。如:

    She lived in Tokyo till (until)she died.她一直住在东京直到去世。

    (√)Until he comes back,nothing can be done.在他回来之前,什么也不能做。

    (×)Till he comes back,nothing can be done.在他回来之前,什么也不能做。

    (5)since引导时间状语从句意为“自……以来”

    Since I left school,I have written to him twice.自从我离开学校以来,我已经给他写过两封信。

    I have not heard from him since he left Shanghai.自从他离开上海以来,我就没有收到过他的来信。

    注意:

    since引起的时间状语从句通常用一般过去时态,主句用现在完成时态。如:

    I've worked here since I left school.自我离开学校以来我一直在这里工作。

    (6)as soon as引导时间状语从句意为“一……就……”

    I want to see him as soon as he arrives.他一到我就想见他。

    2.时间状语从句的时态

    She didn't know me before she came here.她到这里来之前不认识我。

    (7)since引导的时间状语从句要用一般过去时,主句的谓语动词要用延续性动词,通常用现在完成时;用非延续性动词时,要用否定式。如:

    3.时间状语从句的位置
