此句中介词with表示一种伴随的状况，同时还
包含着某种因果关系，表示“因某种状况的存在
而导致……”，因此可译作“由于；因为”等。
e.g. With my parents away, I’m the king of the
house. 我爸妈不在，我可是家中的“王”。
I can’t work with all that noise going on.
由于那噪音响着，我无法工作。 2. Ben’s dad ... while his mom was making sure the flashlights and radio were working.本的爸爸……同时他妈妈在确认手电简和收音机都能正常使用。
1)此句中的连词while的意思是“当……的时候；和……同时”，while还可以表示 “然而；但（是)”之意，用来说明或强调两种事情或情形的不同。
e.g. Tom is active and outgoing while his
sister Rosa is shy and quiet. 汤姆活跃
外向, 而他的妹妹罗莎却羞怯腼腆。
2）make sure的意思是“确认; 查明; 核实”，其后可接句子或接介词of及宾语，用来引入需要确认的内容。
e.g. Could you make sure what time he’s
arriving? I would like to go and pick him
up at the airport. 你确认一下他几点到达
好吗？我想去机场接他。
Make sure you turn off the TV before you
leave the house. 在你离开屋子前确认关闭
了电视。
3)此句中的work表示机器、器官等的“运作；运转”，这是动词work的一种基本用法。
e.g. My watch is waterproof —that means it
would work fine even if it’s in water.
我的手表是防水的———这就是说即便在
水里它也会正常运转。
