1、第十四章 状语从句状语从句就是充当句子状语的从句，它可分为表示时间、地点、方式、比较、原因、结果、目的、条件和让步等从句。第一节 时间状语从句一、when, while 和 as 引导的状语从句这三个词在引导时间状语从句时，既有共性，也有不同。、都可以与具有持续性动作的动词连用，表示一般时间。例如：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。As (while) I was walking down the street, an American asked me for directi

2、ons to the nearest station.当我走在街道上时，有个美国人问我到最近的车站怎么走。、when 通常指一时的动作或状态，可表示从句动作与主句动作同时发生，或先于主句动作；while 常用来引导两个同时进行的持续时间较长的动作；as 常用来引导两个动作紧接着发生；强调“同一时间”或“一先一后” 。例如：When I meet the right man, I will get married.当我遇见合适的人时，我会结婚的。While the teacher explained the text, the students listened attentively.老师讲解

3、课文时，学生们专心听讲做笔记。He sang songs as he was taking a bath.他一边洗澡一边唱歌。As spring warms the earth, all flowers begin to bloom.随着春回大地，百花开始绽放。注：when 和 while 有时可起并列连词的作用（）when 作并列连词用时意为“突然” ， “正在这时” ，通常位于句末，不能位于句首。从句的谓语动词常用一般过去时，主句通常用过去进行时，过去完成进或 be about to 结构等。例如：She was about to leave when Mark arrived so sh

4、e stayed a little longer.她正要离开时马克到了，所以她又多呆了一会。He had been walking under the trees when an apple fell down.他在树下散步，突然一个苹果掉了下来。（）while 意为“而，但是”连接两个意义上相互对比的成分。例如：He knew how to answer the question, while I couldnt answer it.他知道怎样回答那个问题，而我却不能。Jane was dressed in brown while Mary was dressed in blue.珍穿褐色衣

5、服，玛丽却是穿蓝色衣服。二、一些形式上为副词的连接词引导的时间状语从句有些表示时间的副词如 once, directly, immediately 等也可作连接用来引导时间状语从句，意为：“一就” 。例如：Directly I received your letter, I came back at once. 我一收到你的信，我就马上回来了。Immediately he came home, I told him about it. 他一回到家，我就告诉他那件事。Instantly the button is pressed, the mine explodes. 一按电钮，地雷就爆炸。三、

6、某些表示时间的名词短语引导的时间状语从句某些表示时间的名词词组如：the moment, the minute, the instant, the day, the year, any time, last(first) time, next time, each time, every time 等也可用来引导时间状语从句。例如：Every time I met him, I found him to be taller. 每次我见到他我都觉得他长高了。You can call me any time you want to . 你可以随时给我打电话。The last time I went

7、 to the United States, I visited many cities.我上次到美国时曾游览过许多城市。The instant the result came out, she told us. 结果一出来，她就告诉了我们。The moment he saw me, he turned pale. 他一看到我就脸色苍白。四、连接词 As soon as, since, no sooner than等引导的时间状语从句、连接词 as soon as, hardly/scarcely/barelywhen/before,no soonerthan等引导的时间状语从句，意为：“刚（

8、一）就”例如：As soon as their mother came in, the children cried out with pleasure.母亲一进来，孩子们就高兴地叫起来。Jack had scarcely/hardly seen me when/before he left the room.杰克一看到我就离开了房间。The spy had no sooner returned home than he was told to go to another country.那个间谍一踏进国门就奉命要去他国。注：在 no soonerthan, hardly/scarcely/b

9、arelywhen/before 引导的时间状语从句中，若把 no sooner, hardly, scarcely, barely 放在句首，则要用倒装结构。例如：No sooner had he heard the news than he fainted. 他一听到那个消息，就晕了过去。Scarcely had he entered the room when the telephone rang. 他刚一走进房间，电话就响了。、在 since 引导的时间状语从句中，从句通常用过去式，主句则要用完成式。例如：since I was a child, I have lived in the

10、 city. 我从小就住在这个城市。She has never called on me since she moved to the country. 自从她搬到乡下之后就没来看过我。注：当 since 作副词或介词用时，谓语动词也通常用现在完成时。例如：His first book was a great success and he has been famous as a writer ever since.他的第一本书非常畅销，从那以后他就成了一位名作家。I have been in the business since 1988. 1988 年以来，我一直在从事这项工作。五、 ti

11、ll 与 until、这两个词的意思完全一样。till 在口语中用得较多，until 多在正式文体中使用，但是句首只能用 until。在肯定句中谓语为延续性动词时表示“直到为止” ，在否定句中谓语为终止性动词时表示“直到才”在否定句中相当于 before.例如：Ill wait until/till he came back.我将一直等到他回来。Until you told me I had no idea of what she said.直到你告诉我才知道她说的是什么意思。、如果 not until 位于句首时，需用倒装结构。例如：Not until after the was did t

12、hey meet again.直到战后他们才又相见。Not until he told me did I knew it.直到他告诉我我才知道这件事。、It is not untilnot 结构表示强调。例如：It wasnt until they had a discussion that they made up their mind.他们直到讨论过后才下定决心。It wasnt until she had arrived home remembered her appointment with the doctor.A. when B. that she C. and she D. sh

13、e答案为 B. that 在句中引导强调句型。译文：直到她到家才想起与医生有个约会。六、状语从句中省略动词 be 的情况在 when, whenever, while, till, until, once 引导的时间状语从句中，如果从句的谓语动词为 be 动词形式，这时从句中主语和谓语动词 be 有时可省略。例如：I didnt notice it till(it was) too late. 等我注意到这事时已经太晚了。When (I was )a boy, I looked at such things differently. 小时候我对这些事情的看法不同。We will to our

14、best to help them whenever (it is) possible.无论什么时候有可能，我们都会尽最大努力帮助他们。七、时间状语从句中一般现在时表示将来时在使用时间状语从句时，若主句为一般将来时，从句谓语动词需用一般现在时代替一般将来时。例如：Theyll go home after they finish their work. 完成工作后，他们将回家。Ill let you know as soon as he arrives. 他一到我就告诉你。第二节 地点状语从句地点状语从句一般由 where, wherever, everywhere 和 anywhere 引导。

15、例如：You should put the book where it was. 你应该把书放在原来的地方Wherever he went, he was warmly welcome. 无论他走到哪里，他都受到热烈的欢迎。Everywhere they went, they were kindly received. 他们所到之处，都受到热情款待。I will meet you anywhere you like. 我愿意在你所喜欢的任何地方见你。第三节 原因状语从句一、because, since 和 as 引导的原因状语从句、这三个词都可引导原因状语从句，其中 because 语气最强，

16、多表示所叙述的理由是本句的重点，故 because 所引导的从句多在句末，在回答由 why 引出的问句时，只能用because;在语气上 since 次之，as 最弱。since 和 as 表示的原因，多是既成事实，原因以外才是叙述的重点，因而两者多用于句首。例如：“Why were you late?”“Because the traffic was too heavy.”“你为何迟到了？” “因为交通太拥挤了”As it is raining, lets stay at home.因为下雨，我们就留在家里吧。Since you have no license, you are not al

17、lowed to drive.因为你没有驾驶执照，所以你不可以开车。、在强调句式中，若强调原因状语从句，只能用 because 引导的从句。例如：It was because he was careless that he failed.他是由于粗心而失败的。It was because he was ill that he didnt go with us. 正是因为他病了，他才没和我们一起去。、在 because 引导的从句中，如果主句为否定句，而主句和后面的从句之间又没有逗号分开，这时 not 修饰的是后面的整个从句。例如：The machine did not stop because

18、 the fuel was used up. 机器停了下来，并不是因为燃料用光了。You should not despise a man because he is poor. 你不应该因一个穷而轻视他。如果主句和从句之间用逗号分开，那么意思就不同了。例如：I was not kind to him, because he was rude. 我对他不友好，因为他无礼。二、for 和 because 的区别because 总是表示因果关系，而且语气最强；而 for 引导的是并列分句，它只是对前面的分句加以解释，说明推断的理由，并且只能后置。例如：We did not go out becau

19、se it was raining. 因为下雨，我们没有出去。It must have rained last night, for the ground is wet this morning.昨夜一定下雨了，今天早上地都是湿的。（该句不能用 because,因为现在地面湿不是导致昨夜下雨的原因）It is morning, for the birds are singing.天亮了，鸟儿在鸣叫。（鸟鸣不能引起天亮，所以本句不能用 because 代替 for）三、复合连词引导的原因状语从句复合连词 in that, now that, seeing that, considering th

20、at, not thatbut that, inasmuch as等可用来引导原因状语从句。例如：A gas differs from liquid in that it has no definite shape.气体不同于固体就在于它没有一定的形状。Now (that) you are ready, well start working at once.既然你们准备好了，我们马上开始工作。They did the job quite well, considering that they had no experience.考虑到他们没有什么经验，他们干得还是不错的。I havent fi

21、nished writing the report yet, not that Im lazy, but that I have no time.我还没有写完报告，不是因为我懒，而是因为我没有时间。Seeing (that) he is ill, he is unlikely to come. 他生病了，不可能会来。四、介词词组引导的原因状语从句有些介词词组加 by reason, for fear, for the reason, on the ground 等可直接跟 that，用来引导表示原因的状语从句。例如：I eat potatoes for the simple reason th

22、at I like them. 我吃土豆仅仅是因为我喜欢土豆I darent tell you what he did, for fear that he should be angry with me.我不敢将他的事告诉你，因为怕他对我发脾气。He was not severely punished for his crime on the ground that he was young.他没有受到严厉的惩罚是因为他年纪太小。第四节 结果状语从句一、sothat, such that, suchthat 引导的结构状语从句在由 sothat 和 such(a) that 引导的结果状语从句

23、中，要注意 so 和 such 之后跟的词。其常见的情况为：so+ adj. /adv.+ that; such a(n)+n. +that,such+ n.+ that,such+复数可数名词+that等结构。例如：He ran so fast that I couldnt catch up with him.他跑得了如此之快，以致我都跟不上他。It was such a bad accident that decades of people were killed.这次事故非常严重，有几十个人He painted such beautiful pictures that the visit
