在主从复合句中修饰主句的动词、形容词、副词等的从句称作状语从句, 状语从句功能与副词相近,也可称做副词性从句。
状语从句描述主句谓语动词所发生的时间,地点,原因,结果,方式,条件,目的,让步,比较等。尽管状语从句是一个完整的句子,但它不能单独存在 ,它必须依附于主句而存在。
①.Rose went there then.
②.Rose went where her grandparents lived when I visited her last Sunday.上面句②中的where her grandparents lived 这个地点状语从句相当于句①中there的功能,是修饰主句的谓语动词went, 表示went 发生的地点;而②中when I visited her last Sunday这个时间状语从句相当于句①中的then功能,也是修饰主句的谓语动词went,表示went 发生的时间。
一、时间状语从句
常用引导词有:when(在…时), as(当…时), while(在…期间), as soon as(一……就……), before(在…之前), after(在...之后), since(自从...以来) , not...until(直到…才)until/till(直到…时)等
①.when, while和as的区别
when引导的从句的谓语动词可以是延续性的动词,又可以是瞬间动词。
例如:
When she came in, I stopped eating.她进来时,我停止吃饭。(从句瞬间动词)
When I lived in the countryside, I used to carry some water for him.当我住在农村时,我常常为他担水。(从句延续性的动词)
While引导的从句的谓语动词必须是延续性的,并强调主句和从句的动作同时发生。例如:
While my wife was reading the newspaper, I was watching TV. (was reading是延续性的动词,was reading和was watching同时发生)
as表示“一边……一边”,as引导的动作是延续性的动作,一般用于主句和从句动作同时发生;as也可以强调“一先一后”。例如:
We always sing as we walk.我们总是边走边唱。(as表示“一边……一边”)
As we were going out, it began to snow.当我们出门时,开始下雪了。
②until和till 在肯定句中表示“直到······为止”,主句要用延续性动词。如:
You will wait for me tomorrow until/till I come home off work.你明天请等到我下班回来。
如果主句的谓语是否定,那么主句要用非延续性动词。
My mother did not go to bed until/till my father came home last night.
昨天晚上直到爸爸回家妈妈才睡觉。
如果主句是一般将来时,时间状语从句要用一般现在时;主句是过去将来时,从句要用一般过去时。
③since引导的从句中常用过去时,主句用一般现在时或现在完成时。如:
It is /has been ten years since Wang Ling’s family moved here.
自从王玲家搬到这里已经有十年了。
since引导的从句的谓语动词可以是延续性的动词,又可以是瞬间动词。一般情况下,从句谓语动词用一般过去时,而主句的谓语动词用现在完成时或者用一般现在时。但在It is +时间+since从句的句型中,从句多用一般过去式。例如:
Where have you been since I last saw you? 自上次我和你见面以后,你到哪里去了?
It is four years since my sister lived in Beijing. 我妹妹住在北京有四年了。
It is five months since our boss was in Beijing.我们老板在北京有五个月了
二、地点状语从句:
常用引导词有:where(哪里) ,wherever(无论哪里)等。
①Where there is a will, there is a way.
在有意志力的地方,就有一条路。=有志者,事竟成。
②Wherever you may go ,you mustn’t forget your motherland.
无论你在哪里,都不应该忘记自己的祖国。
三、原因状语从句
常用的引导词有:because (因为), as(由于),since, now that(自然)等。其中because 表示的原因最强,它引导的从句放在主句之后。As和 since表示的原因是已知的,但since引导的句型表示的理由比as引导的句型理由更充分、更明显,即大家都知道的事实,显而易见的原因。它们常常放在主句的前面。
①I am very happy because I have got the first place in English test.
我很高兴因为我在英语测验中获得了第一名。
②As the car is full you can hardly put this big box in it.
由于小车装得太满了,你几乎不能把这个大箱子放进去。
③Since/Now that everyone is here, let’s begin.既然大家都来了,让我们开始。
④There is not anything wrong with my bike ,for I had it repaired before.
我的自行车没有坏,因为前天才让人修理的。
注意:由for引导的是一个并列句,不是原因状语从句,但有表原因的意思,
是并列连词。
四、结果状语从句
常用的引导词有:so…that(那…以至于), such…that(那…以至于),等。
①John got up so late that he missed breakfast.
约翰起床太迟了,以至于耽误了早餐。
②She gave us such a useful dictionary that I was very happy.
她给了我一本有用的字典以至于我很高兴。
③It is raining so heavily that we can't go out. 雨下得如此大以至于我们不能出去。
so +adj.或adv.+ that, such +n.+ that 以上两种句型都表示结果,其中so为副词,后接形容词,副词原型,当可数名词前有many, few;不可数名词前
有much, little修饰时,应采用句型:so many (few, much, little )+n;而such为形容词, 后只能接名词。这名词既可以是可数的,也可以是不可数的。如果这名词是可数单数,则必须在名词前加冠词a(an). 常见的形式是:
such a (beautiful)garden, such(great)progress
①I’ve had so many falls that I’m black and blue all over.
我跌了很多跤,浑身数摔得清一块紫一块。
②There are so few notebooks that I can’t give you any.
笔记本太少了,我一本也给不了你。
③It is such nice weather that I’d like to take a walk.
天气是如此之好,以至于我想去散散步。
④Mike is so honest a man that we all believe him.
麦克是如此诚实的一个人,以至于大家都相信他。
(=Mike is such an honest man that we all believe him.)
⑤The weather is so nice that I’d like to take a walk.
天气是如此之好,以至于我想去散散步。
五、目的状语从句
常用的引导词有:so……that(为的是), in order that(为的是), in case that(以防:为了防止)等
①Take an umbrella in case(that) it rains.带把伞以防下雨。
②I take an umbrella so that(=in order that) I won't get wet in the rain.为了不被雨淋湿,我打了把伞。
六、比较状语从句
常用的引导词有:as…as(同…一样), than(比), not as/so…as, 特殊引导词:the more … the more …(越来...越...)等。
①My storybooks are more than yours.
我的故事书比你的多。
②She speaks English as well as her teacher.
她的要用和她的老师讲得一样好。
③The house is three times as big as ours.
这房子是我们的三倍大。
④The more you exercise, the healthier you will be.
你运动的越多,你就越健康。
七、方式状语从句
常用的引导词有:as(照…方式), as if(好像),as though(好像)等。
①Do it as she does. 照她的样子做这件事。
②Wang ling talks as if (as though) he knew all about it.
王玲说话的口气好像她完全都已知道了这件事。
八、让步状语从句
常用的引导词有:though (although)(尽管/虽然…但是),even if /even though(即使)等, though /although连接状语从句时,主句中不可出现but,但可以用yet, still等 。
Though/Although it’s hard work, yet I enjoy it.
尽管这是一件很难的工作,但我乐意做。
I insisted on my own view even if /even though I was wrong.
即使我错了,我依然坚持自己的观点。
九、条件状语从句
常用的引导词有: if(如果),unless(如果 不;除非),as long as(只要) whether(whether...or not)等
①If it rains tomorrow I will stay at home.
如果明天天下雨,我就呆在家里。
②Unless you work hard, you will fail in the exam.
除非刻苦学习,否则你会考试不及格。
③Whether you go travelling or not this summer vacation, I will.
这个暑假无论你是否去旅游,我都会去旅游的。
十 、容易混淆的连词
①though, although当虽然讲, 都不能和but连用,因为but 是并列连词,如果用了but,前面的though 引导的状语从句是不能单独存在,状语从句必须附属于主句存在,所以although,(though)…but的格式是不对的。但是他们都可以同yet (still) 连用.,所以though (although)…yet(still)的格式是正确的。
Wrong: Although he is rich but he is not happy.
Right : Although he is rich, yet he is not happy.
虽然他很富有, 然而他并不快乐.
Right: Although we have grown up, our parents treat us as children.
Right : Although we have grown up, our parents still treat us as children.
尽管我们已经长大了,可是我们的父母仍把我们看作小孩
②.because当因为讲,不能和so连用,因为so 是并列连词,如果用了so,前面的because引导的状语从句是不能单独存在的,状语从句必须附属于主句存在, 所以because…so 的格式不对。
Wrong : Because she has been ill, so she cannot go to school today.
Right: Because she has been ill, she cannot go to school today.
因为她今天病了,所以她不能去上学。
