1、状语从句 (Adverbial Clause) 状语从句指句子用作状语时,起副词作用的句子。它可以修饰谓语、非谓语动词、定语、状语或整个句子。根据其作用可分为时间、地点、原因、条件、目的、结果、让步、方式和比较等从句。状语从句一般由连词(从属连词)引导,也可以由词组引起。从句位于句首或句中时通常用逗号与主句隔开,位于句尾时可以不用逗号隔开。定义在句子中充当除谓语以外的各种句子成分的动词形式叫做非谓语动词(the Non-Finite Verbs)。非谓语动词也是动词的一种,他们有着动词的其他特点,可以充当主语、宾语、状语等。非谓语动词与谓语动词是相对的概念。状语从句的种类1.时间状语从句 2.

18、ear . Hell go to the seaside for his holiday if (it is ) possible. 另外,比较状语从句经常省略。例如: Im taller than he (is tall ). The higher the temperature (is), the greater the pressure (is ). 温度越高,压力越大。就状语从句而言,有时为了使语言言简意赅,常常将状语从句进行简化。状语从句的简化现象在口语中较为普遍,而且在高考中的复现率也较高。因此,有必要对其进行全面、透彻的了解。 状语从句的简化现象常存在于以下五种状语从句中:由if
19、, unless等引导的条件状语从句;由although, though, even if / though等引导的让步状语从句;由when, while, as, before, after, until / till等引导的时间状语从句;由as, as if等引导的方式状语从句;由as, than等引导的比较状语从句。下面针对这五种情形作一归纳。 (1)当状语从句的主语是it,且谓语动词是be时,it和be要完全简化掉。例如: If (it is) possible, he will help you out of the difficulty.如果可能的话,他会帮你摆脱困境。 条件You

32、ped eating.她进来时,我停止吃饭。(瞬间动词) When I lived in the countryside, I used to carry some water for him.当我住在农村时,我常常为他担水。(延续性的动词) We were about to leave when he came in.我们就要离开,就在那时他进来了。(瞬间动词) While引导的从句的谓语动词必须是延续性的,并强调主句和从句的动作同时发生(或者相对应)。并且while有时还可以表示对比。例如: While my wife was reading the newspaper, I was wa
33、tching TV. (was reading是延续性的动词,was reading和was watching同时发生) I like playing football while you like playing basketball.我喜欢踢足球,而你喜欢打篮球。(对比) As表示“一边一边”,as引导的动作是延续性的动作,一般用于主句和从句动作同时发生;as也可以强调“一先一后。例如: We always sing as we walk.我们总是边走边唱。(as表示“一边一边”) As we was going out, it began to snow.当我们出门时,开始下雪了。(as
34、强调句中两个动作紧接着先后发生,而不强调开始下雪的特定时间) as when while的辨析as when while都表示主、从句动作同时发生,三者差异如下: 表示“一边。一边的意思 as 强调两个动作同时进行,并表示对比时 用于发生时间较短时 when 1、还可以表示从句动词的动作在主几句动词的动作之前 或之后发生。 2、when=and then; at that moment (正在那个时候) while 1、用于时间较长时 2、 强调两个动作同时进行,并表示对比时 有时这三个连词可以互换,有时不可以。 It was raining hard when (as) I got ther
35、e. 我到那里时,正在下大雨。 ( 动作同时发生,when可换为as, 但不能换为while,因为get是点动词.) When I had read the article, he called me. 我看完这篇文章之后,她给我打了电话。( 从句动作发生在主句之前,注意时态表达,只能用when ) When I got to the cinema, the film had begun. (当)我到了电影院时,电影已经开演了。(从句的动作发生在主句之后,只能用when,并要注意时态) He was about to leave, when the telephone rang. 他正要离开,

38、ore引导的从句谓语用的是过去时,则主句动词多用过去完成时,这样以便体现动作发生的先后。After表示主句动作发生在从句动作之后。主句和从句的动作的时间关系正好与before引导的从句相反。例如: It will be four days before they come back. 他们要过四天才能回来。 Einstein almost knocked me down before he saw me.爱因斯坦几乎把我撞倒才看到我。 My father had left for Canada just before the letter arrived.我父亲恰好在信到之前去加拿大了。 Th

40、且要注意的是:如果主句中的谓语动词是瞬时动词时,必须用否定形式;如果主句中的谓语动词是延续性动词时,用肯定或否定形式都可以,但表达的意思不同。例如: I didnt go to bed until(till) my father came back.直到我父亲回来我才上床睡觉。 It was not until the meeting was over that he began to teach me English.直到散会之后他才开始教我英语。 I worked until he came back.我工作到他回来为止。 I didnt work until he came back.他
41、回来我这才开始工作。 Please wait until I arrived.在我到达之前请等我。 4.由since引导的时间状语从句。since引导的从句的谓语动词可以是延续性的动词,又可以是瞬时动词。一般情况下,从句谓语动词用一般过去时,而主句的谓语动词用现在完成时。但在It is +时间+since从句的句型中,主句多用一般现在时。例如: I have been in Beijing since you left. 自从你离开以来,我一直在北京了。 Where have you been since I last saw you? 自上次我和你见面以后,你到哪里去了? It is fou
42、r years since my sister lived in Beijing. 我妹妹不在北京住有四年了。 It is five months since our boss was in Beijing.我们老板离开北京有五个月了。 知识扩展 1.

43、间我才睡着。 It was an hour before(=until) the police arrived. 过了一个小时,警察才来。 5.由as soon as, immediately, directly, instantly, the moment, the instant, the minute, 等引导的时间状语从句。这些连词都表示“一就”。例如: I will go there directly I have finished my breakfast. 吃完早饭,我立即到那里去。 The moment I heard the news, I hastened to the s
44、pot.我一听到消息,马上赶到了出事地点。 As soon as I reach Canada, I will ring you up. 我一到加拿大,就给你来电话。 【注意】hardly(scarcely, rarely)when / before, no soonerthan相当于as soon as之意。主句用过去完成时,从句用一般过去时。当hardly, scarcely, rarely和no sooner位于句首时,主句应用倒装语序。例如: He had no sooner arrived home than he was asked to start on another jour
45、ney. 他刚到家,就被邀请开始另一旅程。 No sooner had the sun shown itself above the horizon than he got out of bed to commence work.太阳刚从地平线上升起,他就起床劳动去了。 Hardly had I sat down when he stepped in.我刚坐下,他就进来了。 He had hardly fallen asleep when he felt a soft touch on his shoulder.他刚要入睡就感到肩膀上被轻轻一触。 6.由by the time引导的时间状语从句
46、。注意时态的变化:在一般情况下,如果从句的谓语动词用一般过去时,主句的谓语动词用过去完成时;如果从句的谓语动词用一般现在时,主句的谓语动词用将来完成时。例如: By the time you came back, I had finished this book.到你回来时,我已经写完这本书了。 By the time you come here tomorrow, I will have finished this work. 你明天来这儿的时候,我将已经完成此工作了。 7.由each time, every time和whenever引导的时间状语从句。例如: Each time he came to Harbin, he would call on me. 他每次来哈尔滨,总是来看我。 Whenever that man says“To tell the truth”, I suspect that hes about
