時間狀語從句的基礎知識
用表示時間的連詞連接一個句子作狀語，這樣的主從復合句就是時間狀語從句。連接時間狀語從句的連接詞有：when, before, after, while, as soon as, until, since...... 這里要注意一點的是，如果主句是一般將來時，從句只能用一般現在時表示將來意義。
時間狀語從句的用法
時間狀語從句是表示時間關系的從句。可以引導時間狀語從句的連詞很多，根據意義和主從句之間的時間關系，通常可分為以下幾種情況：
A. when, while, as, whenever
when, while, as表示主句謂語作和從句的謂語動作同時發生或幾乎同時發生。
1.when
①when表示點時間時，從句中用短暫性動詞;表示段時間時，用持續性動詞。
When I got home, my family were already having dinner.
我到家的時候，全家已在吃晚飯。
(when表示點時間)
When they were still talking and laughing, the teacher came in.
當他們還在說笑的時候，老師進來了。(when表示段時間)
He waved ahello when he saw her.
當他看見她的時候，就揮手打了個招呼。(when表示點時間)
When you think you know nothing, you begin to know something.
當你認為自己一無所知的時候，就開始知道一些事情了。(when表示段時間)
注意：
當when意思是正當……時候(and at that moment)時，when只能跟在前一分句之后。
He was about to go to bed when the doorbel rang.
他正要上床，忽然門鈴響了。
They were watching the World Cup when suddenly the lights went out.
他們正看著世界杯比賽，突然燈滅了。
They had just arrived home when it began to rain.
他們剛到家，天就開始下雨了。
②有時when表示雖然，盡管的含義，相當于although或since。
He walks when he might take a taxi.
盡管可以打的，但他還是步行。
How can you hope for mercy yourself when you show none
既然你不寬恕別人，你自己又怎能希望得到別人的寬恕呢?
2.while
①while通常表示一段時間，從句中宜用持續性動詞作謂語。
Strike while the iron is hot.
趁熱打鐵。

她在看報的時候睡著了。
②while有時可以作并列連詞，表示對比，可譯成……而……。
I am fond of English while he likes maths.
我喜歡英語而他卻喜歡數學。
We slept while the captain kept watch.
我們睡覺而上尉擔任警戒。
③while有時可引導讓步狀語從句，意思是雖然。
While they love te children, they are strict with them.
雖然他們都愛他們的孩子，但卻對他們要求嚴格。
提示：
雖然during 與 while 意思很相近，但是during是介詞，不能引導從句。
3.as
①as表示點時間時，從句中用短暫性動詞;表示段時間時，用持續性動詞。as和when兩者經常可以通用。
The thief was caught as when he was stealing in the supermarket.
小偷在超市行竊時被逮住了。

吉姆離開會議室時候我看到了他。
②as表示 一邊……一邊……，強調從句和主句中兩個動作交替進行或同步進行。
They talked as they walked.
他們邊走邊聊。

他一邊走，一邊不時地往后看。
③as表示隨著

隨著時間的推移，天氣變得越來越暖了。
As spring warms the earth, al flowers begin to bloom.
隨著春回大地，百花開始綻放。
4.when, while, as的用法區別
①只有當從句表示的是段時間，即其謂語動詞有持續性特征時，這三者可以通用互換。
I got the news on the radio when while as I was having breakfast.
我在吃早飯的時候從收音機里獲悉這一消息。
②在下列情況下，三者彼此之間不能替換使用：
a.as更強調同一時間或緊接的一前一后或伴隨著的變化。

我們聽著歌星邊彈吉它邊演唱。
I thought of it just as you opened your mouth.
你一張嘴我就知道你要說什幺
As he grew older, he became less and less active.
隨著他年齡的增長，他變得越來越不活潑了。
提示：
狀語從句可放在主句之前或之后，放在主句之前時一般用逗號與主句分開。有時可置于主句中間，前后用逗號。
b.when更強調特定時間，還可表示從句中的動作先于或后于主句的動作。
When I had given Mary the spare ticket, I found my own already gone.
當我把多余的票給了瑪麗時，我才發現我自己的票已不知去向。(從句動作發生在主句之前，注意主從句的時態)

about my daughter.

whenever是when的強勢語，它描述的不是一次性動作，而是經常發生的習慣性動作。
