英语语法-状语从句

本质：连接词(关键)表达分句之间逻辑关系

种类：时间，地点，原因，目的，结果，条件，让步，比较，方式

时间状语：说明两个从句的时间

when：调节两个时间点【起始点&结束点(完成时)】来说明主从句发生顺序

三要点：

• 同 时 态：从句先发生

• 有完成时：强调已完成的时间点

• 从 句 中：现在表将来

(主句/从句)时态	例句
将来/现在	I’ll speak to him when he arrives.
将来/现在完成	I’ll give you a call when I have finished the work.
过去/过去	I started my dinner when he left.
过去/过去完成	He left when I had got there.
过去完成/过去	I had started my dinner when he left.

whenever：强调无论何时(每次)

Smile whenever you pick up the phone, for the caller will be able to notice it.

while + 延续动词：从句发生期间发生

The doorbell rang while we were watching TV.

until：主句持续到从句的时间点保持同一状态

肯定形式：持续发生状态

We’ll stay here till it stops raining.

否定形式：持续未发生状态

I did not realize I would need English in the future until I came to Japan.

三种特殊结构

until句首	Until he saw his mother, the little boy didn’t smile.
主句倒装	Not until he saw his mother did the little boy smile.
强调	It was not until he saw his mother that the little boy smiled.

一…就：as soon as, once, the minute, the moment, the instant, immediately, directly, instantly.

说明：强调主从句说明的两个时间点同时发生；时态一般一致

特殊：倒装比较方式，主句动作刚结束(过去完成)，从句动作就开始(过去)

1. No sooner had I arrived home than it began to rain.

​ 2. Hardly/Scarcely had I arrived home when it began to rain.

​ 3. No sooner had we begun having dinner than the doorbell rang.

时间短语引导：

next time, by the time, every time, each time, the day, the week.
