keep 意为 “保存;借用(一段时间)”,常与表示一段时间的状语连用,强调借的状态的持续 。例如:Tom, can I keep the book a little longer (汤姆,这本书我能多借一段时间吗?)
(二)while /when
while 引导的时间状语从句中,谓语动词必须是延续性动词,强调主句和从句的动作同时发生,从句常用进行时态。例如:While I was doing my homework last night, my parents were watching TV.(昨晚我在做作业的时候,我的父母在看电视。);While children have fun, parents can take dance lessons on the beach.(孩子们玩耍的时候,父母们可以在海滩上参加舞蹈课。)
when 引导的时间状语从句中,谓语动词既可以是延续性动词,也可以是非延续性动词,从句动作可以和主句动作同时发生,也可以先后发生。例如:When I got home, my mother was cooking.(我到家时,妈妈正在做饭。);When he comes, I will tell him the news.(他来的时候,我会告诉他这个消息。)
(三)neither /both/either
neither 表示 “两者都不”,作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式;常构成 “neither...nor...” 结构,意为 “既不…… 也不……”,连接两个并列主语时,谓语动词遵循 “就近原则”。例如:Neither car is exactly what she wants.(两辆汽车都不完全是她想要的。);Neither he nor I am good at swimming.(他和我都不擅长游泳。)

五、语法聚焦:情态动词 could 的用法
could 为 can 的过去式,在表示请求许可时,could 比 can 语气更委婉、客气,常用于一般疑问句,其肯定回答常用 “Yes, you can.”,否定回答常用 “No, you can't.” 或 “Sorry, you can't.”。例如:Could you please open the window (你能打开窗户吗?) - Yes, I can.(是的,我能。)
could 不表示过去时态,而是用于现在时态的句子中,提出有礼貌的请求,回答时不能用 could,要用 can。例如:Could I borrow your book (我可以借你的书吗?) - Yes, you can.(是的,你可以。)
could 还可以用于虚拟语气,表达与事实不符的愿望或假设等,这里暂不详细阐述。
