状语从句
1.时间状语从句
用表示时间的连词连接一个句子作状语,这样的主从复合句就是时间状语从句。使用时间状语从旬时要注意:
如果主句是一般将来时,从句只能用一般现在时表示将来意义。常用引导词:when,while,before, after,until,since
I will go to see you when I come back.我一回来就去看你。
Some were swimming while others were talking.一些人在游泳,其他人在说话。
The sky was very dark before the sun came out.太阳出来之前,天空很黑。
After they got married,they moved to the countryside.结婚后,他们搬到了乡村。
He didn't go to bed until his mother came back.他妈妈回来后他才上床睡觉。
It is two years since he left.他离开两年了。
2.条件状语从旬
由连接词if或unless引导的状语从旬叫做条件状语从句。注意条件状语从旬的“主将从现”(在含有条件状语从旬的复合句中,表示将来时态,主句是一般将来时态。从旬要用一般现在时)o
We will go Out to play if it doesn't rain.如果不下雨。我们就出去玩。
Unless it rains,the game will be played.如果不下雨,游戏将进行。
3.比较状语从句
比较状语从句通常由as或than引起,这类从旬和大多数状语从旬不同。它们不修饰动词,而是修饰as。so,less,more等副词,或其他比较级的词。如taller。harder。
He knows as much as I do about computers.他在电脑方面了解的和我一样多。
He is taller than his sister.他比他妹妹高。
4.目的状语从句
目的状语从句的从句部分是用于补充说明主旬中谓语动词发生的目的。表示目的状语的从句可以由SO that,in
order that等引导o SO that=in order that/ to
Say it louder so that everyone can hear you.一Say it louder in order that everyone can hear you.
大声说,以便大家都能听到你。
5.结果状语从旬
结果状语从句的从句部分是补充说明主旬中谓语动词发生的结果的,通常位于主旬之后。结果状语从句常由
So…that或such…that引导。so+形容词+a/an+名词=such+a/an+形容词+名词。
He is so strong that he can carry the heavy bag.他足够强壮,能够扛起这个重包。
she is such a kind girl that everyone likes her.=She is so kind a girl that everyone likes her.
她很善良,每个人都喜欢她。
6.让步状语从旬
让步状语从旬一般翻译为“尽管……”或“即使……”。引导让步状语从句的连词主要有:though, although, even though
though/although不可与but连用。
Although he is very old,he is quite strong.他虽然年纪大了,身体还很健壮。
We'11 leave even though the weather is bad.即使天气不好,我们也要离开。
7.原因状语从句
原因状语从句表原因,主要由because,since来引导。because不能和so连用。
