学习时间:2013年6月10日-6月16日
内 容:
时间状语从句:(本课难点)
连词有when(当……时), whenever(每当), as(当……时), since(自从……), till(直到), until(直到), before(在……前), after(在……后), as soon as(一……就……), once(一旦……), no sooner ... than(一……就……), hardly ... when(一……就……), the moment(一……就……)
1. when, whenever, as和while
when表示某个具体的时间,所引导从句的动作或是与主句的动作同时发生,或是先于主句动作。when可指一段时间,也可指一点时间,既可表示一时性的动作,又可表示持续性的动作。
whenever指的是“任何一个不具体的时间”。
as所表示的动作与主句动作同时发生,具有延续的含义,一般同延续性动词连用。
while只能表示持续性的动作或状态,不能表示一时性或短暂性的动作。
as和while可译为“一边……一边……,正当……的时候”。
例句:
He entered the room when (while, as) the meeting was going on.(正当开会的时候他走进了房间。) 指一段时间
When she comes, I shall tell her to wait for you.(她来的时候我会告诉她等你的。) 指一点时间,不能用while
While (As) Jim was reading, Jack was writing.(吉姆阅读的时候,杰克在写东西。)指一段时间
As (When) he finished the speech, the audience burst into applause.(他讲话结束的时候,听众掌声雷动。)指一点时间,不能用while
I was walking along the road when suddenly someone patted me on the shoulder from behind.(我正在路上走着,这时忽然有人从后面拍拍我的肩膀。)这句中的when引导的从句相当于一个由and连接的并列分句,这里只能用when,意为“在那时,然后”等。
2. before和after
before和after表示的是两个时间或两个事件之间的先后关系。
before引导的从句的动作通常发生在主句动作之后,如果从句是过去时,主句一般要用过去完成时。
after引导的从句的动作通常发生在主句动作之前,如果主句用过去时,从句要用过去完成时。例如:
They had got everything ready before I arrived.(在我到达之前他们已经把一切准备好了。)
After he had worked in the factory for ten years, he went abroad.(他在这家工厂工作了十年后就出国了。)
It was not long before he sensed the danger of the position. (not long意为“不久……就”)
[注]如果不强调时间的先后,或是因为从句中使用的是某个状态动词,after和before句子结构中的谓语动词也可以都用一般过去时。例如:
He arrived after the game started.(比赛开始后他才到达。)
She did not understand me before I explained it to her.(在我向她解释之前,她不理解我的意思。)
3. no sooner ... than和hardly ... when
这几个连词词组都是表示主句和从句动作相继发生,意为“一……就……”, 主句动词用过去完成时。例如:
He had hardly gone to bed when the door bell rang.(他刚刚睡下,门铃就响了。)
如果no sooner或hardly位于句首,主句要倒装,即把had放在主语前。例如:
No sooner had he got off the train than his daughter ran towards him.(他刚一下车,女儿就跑了过来。)
4. as soon as, the moment
这两个连词引导的从句都表示从句动作一发生,主句动作随即发生,通常译为“一……就”。名词词组the second, the minute, the day, the month等也可作连词,引导时间状语从句。例如:
Every time he walked by the lake, he thought of his childhood life.
I shall come as soon as I’ve finished supper.(我一吃过晚饭就来。)
She came to the scene the moment she heard of the accident.(她一听说发生了事故,就立刻到现场来了。)
[注] as soon as引导时间状语从句时,从句谓语根据情况可用一般现在时、一般过去时、现在完成时或过去完成时。例如:
一般现在时 Could you ring me up as soon as he arrives?(他一到你就给我打电话好吗?)
一般过去时As soon as he found a job he would write to you.(他一找到工作就给你写信。)
现在完成时 She’ll be coming over as soon as I’ve settled down.(我一安顿下来她就会来的。)
过去完成时 He left as soon as he had drunk coffee.(他一喝完咖啡就离开了。)
5. till和until
这两个词的意思都是“直到……,一直……为止”,相当于up to the time that,表示一个动作持续到某一时刻或某一动作发生为止。它们用法相近,但在句首只能用until。
在肯定句中,主句要用延续性动词;在否定句中,until或till可以和非延续性动词连用。例如:
She stood there till (until) he had passed out of sight.(她站在那里看着,直到望不见他的身影。)
辨析:
He entered the room until I returned.(误)
He didn’t enter the room until (before) I returned.(正)直到我回来他才进入房间。
Until they had finished the work, they did not go home.(他们直到工作完成了才回家。) 不用till
6. by和until
在表示时间概念时,by与until不同。by表示“到……为止”,即not later than,动作已完成,谓语应是非延续性动词;
until表示“继续到……时候”,即up to the time that,谓语应是延续性动词。例如:
Can you finish the work until Saturday?(误)
Can you finish the work by Saturday?(正)
You’ll have to keep the key by Monday.(误)
You’ll have to keep the key until Monday.(正)
7. since
since所引导的从句一般要用非延续性动词,主句中用完成时态。例如:
Since he graduated from the college, he has worked in this city.(他大学毕业后一直在这个城市里工作。)
Jack came to see me last month. Since we left school, we had not seen each other.(杰克上个月来看我。自从我们离开学校,我们一直没有见面。)
[注] 作介词时,since后要接时间点,不接时间段。例如:
He has been writing the book since five years.(误)
He has been writing the book since five years ago.(正)
He has been writing the book for five years since he retired.(正)
