状语从句 + 外刊句式积累
状语从句
含义理解:作状语的从句叫状语从句,状语从句的本质是在修饰动词。状语从句分句 = 副词(修饰动词)
句型:关系连词+分句(主谓宾),主句(主句有一套完整的主谓宾)或 主句(主谓宾),关系连词+分句(主谓宾)
例句:When I was in school, I can play soccer. 这里“play”发出的条件是“When I was in school”,也就是说只有我过去在学校的时候我才能踢足球,其他时候不能。
当分句主语和主句一致时,分句主语可省略,谓语是 Be 动词时,Be 动词也能省略。be + adj./介词短语/done/doing
If happy, I am playing soccer. 省略分句主语与 Be 动词
If beaten, I am sad. 省略分句主语与 Be 动词,且是被动
关系连词
-
大连词:
and but or so 并列任何词性
-
关系连词:
while as when although however if where why
-
需要单独记的关系连词
Given that 分句, 主句. given 翻译为“考虑到”
Provided 分句, 主句. provided = if,翻译为“如果”
while
while 翻译为“与此同时”,既会有“当”的意思,又会有“尽管”的意思,效率会高很多。
- 分句中有“进行时”的时候,while 大概率会是“当”的意思
- 其他情况,while 考虑是表转折“尽管”的意思
I am doing everything to win this match while you are playing games everyday.
although/though/while 三个词中,although 与 though 更正式一点,while 转折程度弱一点;虽然这三个词都是表转折,但分句不是重点,主句的观点是重点。而 but 相反,but 所在的那个句子是表达的核心重点。
as
as 很常见,是因为意思很多且常见,用起来也很灵活方便
-
as 作介词,译为“作为”,后面接名词 as + n.
regard/consider/deem A as B
-
as 作连词,as + 句子
- 译为“当”,= when
- 译为“因为”, = bacause
- 译为“正如”,as + sb./sth. + v. 这个结构常在句首或当插入语
读得句子多了,会发现,前两个意思“当”与“因为”没有本质的差别,都是一种条件状语,互换也不影响对句子的理解。因此很多母语人表达时就不用去纠结用 when 还是 because,用 as 完美适配两种情况。
as 译为“正如”时,现代语法书会把它当连词。但实际上你会发现句子成分并不完整,要么缺宾语要么缺主语,as 需要充当句子成分,那此时 as 词性其实更像定语从句的关系代词 which
As you said, I am a student.
As is reported in this article, I am student.
As showed in this experiment, you are correct.
-
as…as 结构
翻译:把第一个 as 忽略,第二个 as 翻译为“正如”
例句:This city is as beautiful as Shanghai.
注意:理论上两个 as 中间可以放任何词性的内容,两个 as 中间部分要与前面的句子语法相连,即去除 as … as 结构,剩下的内容也不能有语法上的错误
错误例句:This school grows as beautiful as that school. 显然 beautiful 无法修饰 grows,应用 beautifully.
This apple is as sweet in Beijing as in shanghai.
I want to write a song as good as yours.
I want to write a song as well as you do.
I hope you can tell me a specific address as accurately as possible.
I hope you can give me a report as accurate as possible.
非谓语动词状语从句
非谓语动词也是动词,意味着它也可以加状语从句。
If I can buy it tomorrow, this book written by me when you are in Beijing is useful.
written by me 是非谓语动词,when you are in Beijing 状语从句,可以修饰 written 也可以修饰后面的 is,但通过意思判断是修饰 written。最前面的条件状语从句If I can buy it tomorrow,因为有逗号,所以修饰主句的核心谓语 is
介词 + 宾语,有宾语的地方就有可能有宾语从句
In a place.
In where you play soccer, I am happy.

e.g. Yet helping children tell right from wrong is a far cry from making every decision for them.
