Grammar Language practice
While the lights were changing to red, a car suddenly appeared round the corner.
When Henry was trying to find the snake, his hand began to hurt badly.
I was trying to pick it up when it bit me again.
when和while的区别
(一) when，while都有“当……时候”的意思。when所引导的时间状语从句既可指时间点，也可指时间段。
在when引导的时间状语从句中，其谓语动词可以是延续性动词，也可以是非延续性动词，可与主句中的谓语动词同时发生，也可在其后发生。如：
I was just reading a book when she came into my room. 她走进我房间时，我正在看书。
Were you writing when the teacher came in
老师进来的时候，你在写信吗？
When he was a child, he was always trying out new ideas. 他小时候就常常试验一些新的设想。
(二) while 所引导的时间状语从句，只指时间段，不能表示某一点时间。在while引导的时间状语从句中，其谓语动词只能是延续性的，而且也只能与主句中的谓语动词同时发生或存在。如：
While Jim was mending his bike, Lin Tao came to see him. 正当吉姆修自行车时，林涛来看他。
You can’t do your homework while you’re watching TV. 你不能一边看电视一边做家庭作业。
(三) when和while的区别还在于: while引导的时间状语从句多用进行时态，而when引导的时间状语从句多用一般时态。如：
While they were talking, the bell rang.
他们谈话的时候，上课铃响了。
I was doing my homework when my mother came back home yesterday evening. 昨天晚上妈妈回家的时候，我正在做家庭作业。
