1、四维教育 状语从句用法详解在主从复合句中修饰主句的动词、形容词、副词等的从句叫状语从句。一般可分为:时间状语从句、地点状语从句、原因状语从句、目的状语从句、结果状语从句、条件状语从句、让步状语从句、比较状语从句、方式状语从句。I 时间状语从句:起时间状语作用的从句。 (时间状语从句位置灵活,可以在句首,也可在句末) 常用来引导时间状语从句的引导词有:when, while, as, after, before, until/till, since, as soon as, immediately, the moment, every time, whenever等。1. when, while
2、, as 1) when“当.的时候”,表示主从句的谓语动作同时发生或先后紧接着发生。 I was very happy when I heard from you. 收到你的信时我非常高兴。 When you deal with them, you should be cautious. 跟他们打交道时,你应该谨慎。 when引导时间状语从句中的谓语动词可以用非延续性动词,也可用延续性动词。 When I was young, I went to town myself. 当我还年轻时,我自己独自去城里。(延续性动词) When I lived in country, I used to c
3、arry some water for him. 我住在农村时,常常为他担水。(延续性动词) When he received the letter, hell tell us. 当他接到信后,他会告诉我们的。(非延续性动词) When the fire broke out, all the students were sleeping soundly. 火灾发生时,所有的学生正在熟睡。(非延续性动词)注意:当when引导的时间状语从句为系表结构,而且其主语和主句的主语一致,其表 语又是一个名词时,就可以用由as引导的省略句来代替when引导的从句。如: As a young man(=Whe
4、n he was a young man), he was fond of hunting. 他年轻时喜欢打猎。 2)while引导的时间状语从句中谓语动词必须是延续性动词或表示状态的动词,侧重主句 动作和从句动作相对比。 My father was preparing a report while I was playing games. 爸爸在准备一个报告,而我在玩游戏。 Please dont talk so loud while others are working. 别人在工作时,别高声谈话。 3)as表示从句和主句的两个动作交替进行或同时发生,可译为“一边.,一边.” 或“随着.”
5、。 He hurried home, looking behind as he went. 他匆匆忙忙回家去,一边走一边回头望。 As time goes on, its getting warmer and warmer. 随着时间的推移,天气变得越来越暖和了。注意:如果主句表示的是短暂动作,而从句用延续性动词的进行时态表示在一段时间内正在 进行的动作,此时when, while与as可互换使用。 When/ While/As I was walking down the street, I came across an old friend of mine. 当我沿大街行走时,碰巧遇到了我
6、的一个老朋友。 2. till, until和not. until 1)肯定句:主句的谓语动词必须是延续性动词,主句、从句都为肯定式,意为“某动作 一直延续到某时间点才停止”。 He remained there until/ till she arrived. 他在那一直等到她来。 You may stay here until/ till the rain stops. 你可以待在这里直到雨停。 2)否定句:主句的谓语动词必须是非延续性动词,从句为肯定式,意为“某动作直到某 时间才开始”。构成not.until/till,意为“直到.才”。 She didnt go to bed unti
7、l I come back. 你必须留在这儿直到我回来。 Dont worry. We wont set off until you arrive. 不要担心,你到了我们再出发。 3)till不可以置于句首,而until可以。 Until you told me the news, I had no idea of it. 直到你告诉我,我才知道这个消息。 4)not.until 句型中的强调和倒装用法。 直到你告诉我,我才知道这件事。 强调句型:It was not until you told me that I had any idea of it. 倒装句型:Not until you
8、 told me did I have any idea of it. (not until置于句首,主句要用部分倒装结构) Not until the clock struck 12 did she realize she must go home at once. 直到钟敲了12下,她才意识到她必须马上回家了。 3. before 1)before作“没有来得及.就”“未.就”“.就.”解时,强调主句谓语动词表示 的动作发生得过早或过快。 Someone called me up in the night, but they hung up before I could answer th
9、e phone. 有人半夜给我打电话,但我还未来得及接他们就把电话挂了。 They had talked only a few minutes before they found they were quite different in opinion. 他们才谈了几分钟就发现他们的意见很不一致。 2)before作“.才.”解时,强调从句谓语动词表示的动作发生得太慢或太晚。 The bus driver almost knocked me down before he saw me. 那位公交车司机差一点把我撞倒,他才看见我。 The fire lasted about four hours

11、d give up the plan before I turn to him for help.我宁可放弃计划也不向他求助。 注意:“It + be + 一段时间+ before从句”中的主句和从句的时态有两种情况: 如果主句用一般将来时,则从句用一般现在时,意为“多长时间以后某事即将发生”; It wont be long before we meet again. 不久我们就会再见的。 如果主句用过去时,从句也用过去时,意为“多长时间以后某事才发生”。 It was 3 years before he came back from abroad. 三年后他才从国外回来。 4. since
12、 译为“自从.”,主句常用现在完成时,从句常用一般过去时。 1)若since引导的状语从句的谓语动词是终止性的过去时,则从句表示的时间是“从动 作开始的那一刻起”,这种情况比较常见。 He has studied very hard since he came to our school. 自从他来到我们学校,他学习就非常努力。 2)若since引导的状语从句的谓语动词是持续性动词或表示状态的动词的过去时,则从 句表示的时间是“从那持续动作或状态结束时算起”。 I havent heard any noise since I slept. 我醒后还未听到任何声音。(sleep为持续性动词,该动

14、ce(一.就) 这些从属连词引导的从句都表示从句的动作一发生,主句的动作随即就发生,常译作 “一.就.”。从句中用一般时态代替将来时态。 The moment I heard the voice, I knew father was coming. 我一听到那个声音,我就知道父亲来了。 No sooner had we arrived at the station than the train left. 我们一到车站,火车就离站了。 The boy burst into tears immediately he saw his mother. 那男孩一见到他妈妈便放声大哭。 注意:no so
15、oner.than; hardly. when.这一结构的时态搭配: no sooner与hardly引导的句子的谓语动词应用过去完成时, 而than与when引导的句子的谓语动词应用一般过去时。 此外:当把no sooner和hardly提到句首时,应用倒装语序。 I had hardly got home when it began to rain. Hardly had I got home when it began to rain. 我一到家天就下起雨来。 6. every time, each time, next time, the first time, any time, a
16、ll the time等名词短语用来引 导时间状语从句,表示“每当.;每次.;下次.”等。 Every/ Each time I was in trouble, he would come to help me out. 每当我处于困境,他就会来帮助我。 Next time you come, do remember to bring your son here. 下次你来的时候,一定记着把你儿子带来。 The last time she saw James, he was lying in bed. 上次她看见詹姆斯的时候,他正躺在床上。 7. 名词性短语充当连词引导时间状语从句 表示时间的

18、ywhere, everywhere, nowhere等。 Make marks where you have questions. 在有问题的地方作出标记。 You can go anywhere you like. 你可以到你想去的任何地方。 Where there is a will, there is a way. 有志者事竟成。 注意:地点状语从句与定语从句的区别 where引导定语从句时,从句前应有一个表示地点的词作先行词; 而状语从句前则无需用先行词。 Go back where you came from. 你从何处来回何处去。(where引导地点状语从句) Go back t
19、o the village where you came from. 回到你来的那个村子里去。(where引导定语从句,修饰village) Youd better make a mark where you have any questions.(状语从句) Youd better make a mark at the place where you have any questions.(定语从句) where 引导的地点状语从句一般可以转化为定语从句,只要在where前加上 “to/in/from+the place/places/any place(s)等”结构即可。III 让步状语从
20、句 引导让步状语从句的连词有although, though, as, even if, even though, while, whether.or., whether(.) or not, whatever, no matter what/ how/ why等。 1. though/although引导的让步状语从句 1)although和though意义相同,都意为“虽然,即使”,表示让步,一般情况下可互 换使用,区别在于although语气较重,大多置于句首。 2)though/ although引导让步状语从句时,主句若用yet或still引出,更加强调对比性, 但不可出现but。
21、3)though引导的从句可以把表语、状语、动词等提至句首。在as though, even though 中一般不可用although代替。同时although不可当副词用,而though则可。 Although its raining, they are still working in the field. 虽然在下雨,但他们仍在地里干活。 Short though it is, the article is very important. 那篇文章虽然很短,但很重要。注意:though还可用作副词,意为“可是,然而”,置于句末。 He said he would come; he di
22、dnt, though. 他说他会来,可是没有来。 2. even though/ even if 引导的让步状语从句这两个短语表示语气更强的让步,常常意为“再退一步说”。even though更强调对“既成事实”的让步:Even though he is poor, she loves him. (= He is poor, yet she loves him.)尽管他很穷,但她还是爱他。even if 则强调对“假设”的让步。Even if he is poor, she loves him. (= He may be poor, yet she loves him.)即使他很穷,但她还是
23、爱他。 3. as引导的让步状语从句 as引导让步状语从句时,从句中的表语、状语以及谓语中的实义动词需提前至从句句首, 作表语的单数可数名词前如有冠词,冠词需要省去。 Child as/ though he was, he knew what was the right thing to do. = Though he was a child, he knew what was the right thing to do. 虽然他是一个孩子,但他知道该做什么。 Much as/ though I like it, I wont buy it, for its too expensive. 虽然
24、我很喜欢它,但我不会买,因为它太贵了。 Try as you may, you will never succeed. 你尽管试,但你绝不会成功的。 注意:though引导的从句也可以像as引导的从句一样用倒装语序,但是although引导的 从句只能用正常语序。 Smart though/ as she is, she doesnt study hard. Though she is smart, she doesnt study hard. Although she is smart, she doesnt study hard. 4. whether. or/ whether (.) o
25、r not引导的让步状语从句 whether. or/ whether (.) or not表示“不论是否”“不管是.还是”之意。该复合连词 引导的让步状语从句表示正反两个方面的可能性都不会影响主句的意向或结果。 Youll have to attend the ceremony whether youre free or busy. 不管你忙不忙,都必须要参加这个典礼。 Whether you believe it or not, its true. 无论你是否相信,这都是真的。 5. while引导的让步状语从句 while也可以引导让步状语从句,表示“尽管”,比though/ altho
26、ugh语气弱。while引导 的让步状语从句一般要位于句首。 While I like the color, I dont like the shape. 我虽然喜欢那颜色,但不喜欢那形状。 While I understand what you say, I cant agree with you. 虽然我理解你的意思,但我还是不同意。 6. what-ever类词引导的让步状语从句在英语中,wh-ever类词可作疑问词,也可引导名词性从句,还可引导让步状语从句。 这类词在引导让步状语从句时常可换成“no matter+wh-词”,但在引导名词性从句时只能 用wh-ever类词。 Ill w
27、ait for you however (no matter how) late it is. 不管有多晚我都会等着你。 Whoever (No matter) you are, you must keep the law. 不管你是谁,你都要遵纪守法。 注意:“no matter+疑问词”结构只能引导让步状语从句,而wh-ever类词还可以引导名词 性从句或其他状语从句。 Ill eat whatever you give me. 你给我吃什么,我就吃什么。(what引导宾语从句) Whoever comes will be welcome. 不管谁来都受到欢迎。(whoever引导主语从句
28、)IV 原因状语从句 在主句中作原因状语的从句称为原因状语从句,可置于句首,也可置于句尾。 引导原因状语从句的常用词可分为两类:单词引导如because, as, since等,短语引导如 now that, for the reason that, in that, seeing that等。 1. because, as, since用法这三词都有“因为”之意,但用法和具体内涵各异。1) because语气最强,用以回答why引起的提问,可表示已知或未知的事实。它可和 强调词only, merely, just及否定词not连用,所引导的从句常位于主句之后,只有强 调时才置于主句之前。它还
