小议while(初一) (中学英语教学论文)

发布时间:2017-10-17 编辑:互联网 手机版

while作"当......的时候"解时,用来引导时间状语从句。它常表示一段较长的时间或一个过程,强调从句的动作或者与主句的动作同时发生,或者主句的动作是在从句动作的进展过程中发生的。因此,从句中的谓语必须是表示延续性的动作。例如:

Please keep quiet while others are studying. 别人在学习的时候,请保持安静。

另外,while还可作名词,意为"一段时间"。例如:

She studied in the school for a while. 她在这个学校学习过一段时间。

When I got there it was four o'clock p.m. 我到的时候是下午四点。

When he was a child, he liked swimming. 他是孩子的时候,就喜欢游泳。

When did the 28th Olympic Games begin? 第28届奥运会什么时候开幕的?
