时间状语从句和省略.docVIP

时间状语从句和省略 一、时间状语从句 1. 某些易用错的连词。 (1) 连词immediately / directly / instantly和词组the moment, the minute意为“一……就……”，相当于as soon as。如： The thief ran away the moment / directly he saw the policeman. [注意] a. immediately / directly / instantly也是副词，在句中作状语。如： I didn’t immediately realize how serious the situation was. b. 介词on / upon +名词 / V-ing也表示“一……就……”。如： Yao Ming was surrounded by the media on his arrival at the airport. On seeing the painting by Van Gogh, I fell in love with it at once. (2) 词组the first time, the last time, each time, every time以及by the time，都引导时间状语从句。如： The first time I spoke English before foreigners, I was a student of high school. Every time I meet the policeman at that crossroads, he will give me a big smile. [注意] for the first time是介词短语，意为“第一次……”，常用来作状语。 They had a face-to-face talk for the first time. (3) when, while和as引导时间状语从句的区别： when引导时间状语从句时，可与短暂性动词连用，也可与延续性动词连用；而 while只能与延续性动词连用；as表示两个动作的同时性，意为“一边……，一边……”。如： When I entered the classroom, all the students looked up at me curiously. Could you look after Robert while I am preparing the report? The children sang as they climbed the mountain. 2. 时间状语从句中的时态。 (1) when, as soon as, every time, immediately, the moment等在引导时间状语从句时，若从句用一般现在时，主句用一般将来时。如： The moment I finish my homework, I will go out to play football. (2) 在It / This / That is the first / second / last time that…中，that从句中的谓语动词用现在完成时；而It / This / That was the first / second / last time that…中，that从句中的谓语动词用过去完成时。如： This is the first time that I have visited the Great Wall. That was the second time that he had been interrupted by the noise outside. 二、省略 1. 状语从句中的省略。 (1) 连词when, while, if, as, though / although, until, once, whether, unless, where等引导的状语从句中，当主句的主语和从句的主语一致时，常省略跟主句相同的主语和be，只剩下主要的部分。如： While / When (you are) crossing the street, you must be careful. Unless (I am) invited to attend the party, I won’t go to his house. (2) 当出现when, if, where, wherever, whenever, than等后直接接possible, necessary时，可理解为省略了“it + be的
