英语语法:when, while, as的用法的区别

英语语法:when, while, as的用法的区别

英语语法:when, while, as的用法的区别when, while, as的用法区别三者可表示“当……时候”,区别如下:(1) 若主句表示的是一个短暂性动作,从句表示的是一个持续性动作,三者都可用:He fell asleep when [while, as] he was reading. 他看书时睡着了。

【注】 as 用于引出一个持续性动词表示“在……期间”时,其谓语通常只能是那些含有动作(action)和发展(development) 意味的动词,一般不能是那些不用于实行时态的动词(如 be, seem, love, want, agree, see, know, have 等),所以下面一句中的 while 不能换为 as:A:I’m going to the post office. 我要去邮局。

B:While you’re there, can you get me some stamps? 当你在邮局时,能帮我买几张邮票吗?(2) 若主、从句表示两个同时实行的持续性动作,且强调主句表示的动作延续到从句所指的整个时间,通常要用 while:Don’t talk while you’re eating. 吃饭时不要说话。

I kept silent while he was writing. 在他写的时候,我默不作声。

但是,若主从句表示的两个同时实行的动作含有“一边…一边”之意思,通常用 as:She sang as she went along. 她边走边唱。

(3) 若从句是一个短暂性动作,主句是一个持续性动作,可用as / when 但不用 while:It was raining hard when [as] we arrived. 我们到达时正下着大雨。

(4) 若主从句表示的是两个同时(或几乎同时)发生的短暂性动作,用 as / when:I thought of it just when [as] you opened your mouth. 就在你要说的时候,我也想到了。

when和while和as的区别口诀

when和while和as的区别口诀

when和while和as的区别⼝诀
As多⽤于动作发⽣时间较短时,when表⽰“当……的时候”,while所引导的从句中的动词是延续性的。

当从句和主句的动作同时发⽣,但因为从句动作arrived是⾮延续性的,表⽰的是“⼀瞬间”,此时不可⽤while,但可⽤as替换。

when和while和as的区别
while引导的时间状语从句,在句中表⽰某⼀段时间内发⽣的事情,常译为“当……时”。

从句谓语动词必须⽤延续性动词,且常与现在进⾏时搭配。

when引导的时间状语从句,既可以表⽰“某⼀段时间”,也可以表⽰“某⼀时刻”。

从句中谓语动词可以是延续性动词,也可以是⾮延续性动词。

as强调两个动作的同时性,表⽰“⼀边……⼀边……”。

when和while和as的例句
As I got on the bus,he got off.
我上车,他下车。

He was watching TV while she was cooking.
她做饭时,他在看电视。

When he came back,I was doing some washing.
他回来时,我在洗⾐服。

When the teacher came in, we were talking.当此句改变主从句的位置时,则为:While we were talking, the teacher came in.b. They were singing while we were dancing.④when和while 还可作并列连词;when表示“在那时”;while表示“而,却”,表对照关系;如:a.

2020中考英语考点:“当……的时候”while,when,as到底怎么区别?

2020中考英语考点:“当……的时候”while,when,as到底怎么区别?

2020中考英语考点:“当……的时候”while,when,as到底怎么区别?在引导时间状语,表示“当......的时候”,我们可以用到while、when 和 as,但是他们的用法还是有区别的。

具体来说:1. while:后面的动作往往是延续得比较长的,而且这个动作一般会和主句的动作同时发生,两个动作并列进行,所以我们常常把while翻译为“在......的过程中”;比如:While he was cooking in the kitchen his son was watching TV.他在厨房做饭的时候,他的儿子在看电视。

2. when:可以引导一个延续性的动词,也可以是非延续的瞬间动词,可以和主句的动作同时发生,也可以不在同一时刻发生,所以常翻译为“当......的时候”;例如:When I was waiting in the hall Michael arrived.(延续)当我在大厅等待的时候,麦克到了。

When I arrived,Michael was waiting in the hall.(非延续)当我到的时候,麦克在大厅等着。

3. as与 while 和 when 意义相同,所以可替换 while 和 when,但是 as 有自己独特的含义:as 后面的动作和主句的动作同时发生,所以 as 往往翻译为:“一边……一边……”,或者“正当......的时候”。

例如:He fell to the ground as he was getting on the bus. 他正上车时,摔倒在地上。

As I was leaving the house the postman arrived. 正道我要离开家的时候,邮递员到了。

区别as_when_while

区别as_when_while

as, when,while的用法区别详解三者都有“当……时候”的意思,注意以下用法与区别:1.若主句表示的是一个短暂性的动作,而从句表示的是一个持续性动作时,三者都可用。

如:He fell asleep when [while, as] he was reading. 他看书时睡着了。

I met him when [as, while] I was taking a walk in the park. 我在公园散步时遇到了他。

2.若主、从句表示两个同时进行的持续性动作,且强调主句表示的动作延续到从句所指的整个时间,通常要用while。

如:Don’t talk while you’re eating. 吃饭时不要说话。

I kept silent while he was writing. 在他写的时候,我默不作声。

但是,若主、从句表示的两个同时进行的动作含有“一边……一边”之意思,通常要用as。

如:She sang as she went along. 她边走边唱3.若从句是一个短暂性动作,而主句是一个持续性动作,可以用as 或when 但不用while。

如:When [As] he came in, I was listening to the radio. 他进来时,我在听收音机。

It was raining hard when [as] we arrived. 我们到达时正下着大雨。

5.若要表示两个正在发展变化的情况,相当于汉语的“随着”,一般用as。

如:Things are getting better and better as time goes on. 随着时间的推移,情况越来越好。

As it grew darker, it became colder. 天色越晚,天气越冷。

6.表示“每当……的时候”(暗示一种规律性),一般要用when。

如:It’s cold when it snows. 下雪时天冷He smiles when you praise him. 你夸奖他时他总是笑笑。

when, while, as的用法区别

when, while, as的用法区别

when, while, as的用法区别三者可表示“当……时候”,区别如下:(1)若主句表示的是一个短暂性动作,从句表示的是一个持续性动作,三者都可用:He fell asleep when [while, as] he was reading. 他看书时睡着了。

【注】as 用于引出一个持续性动词表示“在……期间”时,其谓语通常只能是那些含有动作(action)和发展(development) 意味的动词,一般不能是那些不用于进行时态的动词(如be, seem, love, want, agree, see, know, have 等),所以下面一句中的while 不能换为as:A:I’m going to the post office. 我要去邮局。

B:While you’re there, can you get me some stamps? 当你在邮局时,能帮我买几张邮票吗?(2)若主、从句表示两个同时进行的持续性动作,且强调主句表示的动作延续到从句所指的整个时间,通常要用while:Don’t talk while you’re eating. 吃饭时不要说话。

I kept silent while he was writing. 在他写的时候,我默不作声。

但是,若主从句表示的两个同时进行的动作含有“一边…一边”之意思,通常用as:She sang as she went along. 她边走边唱。

(3)若从句是一个短暂性动作,主句是一个持续性动作,可用as / when 但不用while:It was raining hard when [as] we arrived. 我们到达时正下着大雨。

(4)若主从句表示的是两个同时(或几乎同时)发生的短暂性动作,用as / when:I thought of it just when [as] you opened your mouth. 就在你要说的时候,我也想到了。

when、while、as引导时间状语从句的区别

when、while、as引导时间状语从句的区别

这三个词的意思很简单,都有“当……时候”的意思。

但学生经常会问三个词的区别在哪儿,特别是在做选择题的时候。

别说是学生,就我个人而言,做这样的选择题要保证百分之百的正确也是不可能的。

现根据大量的实例和个人的思考,做一点小结,供大家参考。

一、when 的用法如果只从现象来看,when 从句用的最多的是一般过去时,而主句的时态没有限制,根据具体情况而定。

When he was a child he was always trying out new ideas.他小时候就常常试验一些新的设想。

when she came into my room I was just reading a book.她走进我房间时,我正在看书。

Were you writing when the teacher came in?老师进来的时候,你在写信吗?Sorry,I was out when you called me.对不起,你打电话来的时候我出去了。

He was on the point of leaving when someone knocked at the door.他正要走,这时有人敲门。

I thought of it just when you opened your mouth.就在你要说话的时候,我也想到了。

I had hardly[scarcely] closed my eyes when someone knocked at the door.我刚一闭上眼,就有人在敲门了。

根据以上的例句,我们可以总结出一点:when 从句的A事件,相当于另一个事件B发生的时间点。

也就是说,when 从句的重点不在动作本身发生的状态,而只是把它作为一个时间点,所以when 多数情况下用的是一般过去时,则不用正在进行时。

因为如果用正在进行时,它表示的就是一段时间而不是一个时间点了。

根据这一点,有的文章补充说:when 从句的动词大多是瞬时动词。

as,when,while的区别

as,when,while的区别

as、when和while的区别Ⅰ. as “当(在)……时候”往往可与when 或while通用,但它着重指主句和从句的动作或事情相并发生。

如:①I saw him as he was getting off the bus. 当下公共汽车的时候,我看见了他。

②As he walked on, he felt himself getting more and more tired.他继续往前走的时候,感到越来越疲乏。

Ⅱ. when “当(在)……的时候”主句和从句的动作或事情可以同时发生,也可以先后发生。

①It was raining when we arrived. 当我们到达的时候,正下着雨。

②When we were at school, we went to the library every day. 我们在求学的时候,每天都到图书馆去。

Ⅲ. while “当(在)……的时候”表主句的动作或事情发生在从句中的动作或事情的进展过程之中。

从句通常为进行时态。

它有时可与when通用,但它只能指一段时间(a period of time),而不能指一点时间(a point of time)如上面的第一个例子。

又如:①Please don’t talk so loud while others are working. 别人在工作的时候,请勿大声讲话。

②While I am washing the floor, you can be cleaning the windows.我洗地板时,你可以擦窗户。

whenwhileas区别和用法

whenwhileas区别和用法

whenwhileas区别和用法
When、while和as这三个单词在英语中都表示时间的概念,但
是它们的用法和含义却有所不同。

When和while都可以表示“当……的时候”,但是它们的用法有区别。

When通常用于表示一个短暂的动作或事件,强调时间上的先
后顺序,如:When I arrived at the airport, the plane had already taken off.(当我到达机场时,飞机已经起飞了。

)While则通常用
于表示一个持续性的状态或动作,强调的是同一时间内两个事情的共存,如:I watched TV while eating dinner.(我边吃晚饭边看电视。


As则通常表示“当做……的时候”、“由于”、“和……同时”,如:As a teacher, I have to set a good example for my students.(作为一名教师,我必须为学生树立一个好榜样。

)As I was walking to work, I saw my neighbor.(当我走路去上班的时候,我看到了
我的邻居。


除了以上基本含义之外,这三个单词还有一些特定的用法和搭配,需要根据具体语境来理解。

总之,在使用这三个单词时,需要注意它们的含义和用法的差异,以便正确地表达自己的意思。

英语重点词汇when,while,as区别详解

英语重点词汇when,while,as区别详解

英语重点词汇when,while,as区别详解When the plane arrived,some of the detectives were waiting inside the main building while others were waiting on the airfield.当飞机到达时,一下侦探等候在主楼内,另一些侦探则守候在停机坪上。

《新概念英语2第7课》这个句子由3个部分组成:when引导的是整个句子的时间状语从句;some of the detectives were waiting inside the main building为主句;while others were waiting on the airfield 这个是一个过去进行时从句。

when既可表示某一点时间,也可以表示某一段时间。

在when 引导的时间状语从句中,其谓语动词可以是延续性的,也可以是非延续性的,可与主句中的谓语动词同时发生,也可在其后发生。

while只能表示某一段时间,不能表示某一点时间。

在while引导的时间状语从句中,其谓语动词只能是延续性的,而且也只能与主句中的谓语动词同时发生或存在。

一、when和while的区别①when是at or during the time that, 既指时间点,也可指一段时间;while是during the time that,只指一段时间,因此when引导的时间状语从句中的动词可以是终止性动词,也可以是延续性动词,而while从句中的动词必须是延续性动词。

②when 说明从句的动作和主句的动作可以是同时,也可以是先后发生;while 则强调主句的动作在从句动作的发生的过程中或主从句两个动作同时发生。

③由when引导的时间状语从句,主句用过去进行时,从句应用一般过去时;如果从句和主句的动作同时发生,两句都用过去进行时的时候,多用while引导,如:a. When the teacher came in, we were talking.当此句改变主从句的位置时,则为:While we were talking, the teacher came in.b. They were singing while we were dancing.④when和while 还可作并列连词。

when,while,as的区别

when,while,as的区别

先说一下when和while的区别一、when和while 作“当...时”解释时(此时while看作从属连词),有以下区别:1)两个动作同时进行最好用while,也可以用when;先后进行只用whenWork while you work, play while you play. (同时发生)工作的时候就工作,玩的时候就玩。

I was doing my homework when my mother came back home. (先后发生)我妈回家的时候我正在写作业。

2)when从句可用终止性动词和延续性动词,而while从句只用延续性动词(若主句为进行时态,when引导的从句一般用一般时态,while引导的从句用进行时态)They were singing while we were dancing. 他们在唱歌时我们在跳舞。

It was raining when we arrived. 我们到的时候天在下雨。

(arrive 意为“到达”,为终止性动词)二、when可用于疑问句,定语从句的关系副词,宾语从句的引导词,而while不能I don't know when he will go back.(宾语从句)The days when we used foreign oil are gone. (when此时为定语从句的关系副词)我们用洋油的日子一去不复返了三、while做从属连词还有“虽然”的意思;做并列连词时,意为“而”(表转折),都不能用when代替While I like the color of the hat, I do not like its shape.虽然我喜欢这顶帽子的颜色,但我不喜欢它的形状。

I like tea while she likes coffee. 我喜欢喝茶,而她喜欢喝咖啡。

四、when和while的固定用法when的句型:was doing …… when did ……was about to do …… when did …… 正要……这时突然……hardly when …… 一……(就……)had hardly …… when …… 一……,就……while的词组:a great while ago 很久以前a little while ago 不久之前all the while 一直for a while,in a while,take a while,……下面说说as:as在许多情况下相当于when,只要考虑特殊情况就行:1)when可以作并列连词,意为“这时(突然)”,不能as代替The children were running to move the bag of rice when they heard the sound of a motor bike.孩子们正要跑过去搬开那袋米,这时他们听到了摩托车的声音。

(完整版)while、when和as的用法区别

(完整版)while、when和as的用法区别

as when while 的区别和用法as when while的用法它既可表示一个具体的时间点,也可以表一、as的意思是“正当……时候”,线示一段时间。

as可表示主句和从句的动作同时发生或同时持续,即“点点重合”“线重合”;又可表示一个动作发生在另一个动作的持续过程中,即“点线重合”,但不能表示两个动作一前一后发生。

如果主句和从句的谓语动词都表示持续性的动作,二者均可用进行时,也可以一个用进行时,一个用一般时或者都用一般时。

1、As I got on the bus,he got off. 我上车,他下车。

(点点重合)两个动作都是非延续性的2、He was writing as I was reading. 我看书时,他在写字。

(线线重合)两个动作都是延续性的3、The students were talking as the teacher came in. 老师进来时,学生们正在讲话。

(点线重合)前一个动作是延续性的,而后一个动作时非延续性的在……期间(for二、while的意思是“在……同时(at the same time that )”“as long as, during the time that)”。

从while的本身词义来看,它只能表示一段时间,不能表示具体的时间点。

在时间上可以是“线线重合”或“点线重合”,但不能表示“点点重合”。

例如:1、He was watching TV while she was cooking. 她做饭时,他在看电视。

(线线重合)2、He was waiting for me while I was working. 我工作的时候,他正等着我。

(线线重合)3、He asked me a question while I was speaking. 我在讲话时,他问了我一个问题。

(点线重合)三、when的意思是“当……时候(at the time that)”“无论什么时候在……以后(after)”。

我们在求学的时候,每天都到图书馆去。

Ⅲwhile
“当(在)……的时候”表主句的动作或事情发生在从句中的动作或事情的进展过程之中。

从句通常为进行时态。

它有时可与when通用,但它只能指一段时间(a period of time),而不能指一点时间(a point of time)如上面的第一个例子。

又如:
①Please don’t talk so loud while others are working.
别人在工作的时候,请勿大声讲话。

②While I am washing the floor, you can be cleaning the
windows.我洗地板时,你可以擦窗户。

一、根据从句动作的持续性来区分1.“主短从长”型:即主句是一个短暂性的动作,而从句是一个持续性动作,此时三者都可用。

如:Jim hurt his arm while [when, as] he was playing tennis. 吉姆打网球时把手臂扭了。

As [When, While] she was waiting for the train, she became very impatient. 她在等火车时,变得很不耐烦。

注意:as用于引出一个持续性动词表示“在……期间”时,其谓语通常只能是那些含有动作和发展意味的动词,一般不能是那些不用于进行时态的动词(如be, seem, love, want, agree, see, know, have 等),所以下面一句中的while不能换为as:A:I’m going to the post office. 我要去邮局。

B:While you are there, can you get me some stamps? 当你在邮局时,能帮我买几张邮票吗?若主句与从句表示的是两个几乎同时发生的动作,含有类似汉语“刚要……就”“正要……却”的意思,英语一般要用as(也可用when),且此时通常连用副词just。

且此时,从句一般用进行时,主句用短暂性动词的一般时态。

【注意与六区别】I caught him just when [as] he was leaving the building. 他正要离开大楼的时候,我把他截住了。

Just as [when] the two men were leaving, a message arrived. 就在这两个人要离开的时候,突然有了消息。

2.“主长从长”型:即主句和从句为两个同时进行的动作或存在的状态,且强调主句动作或状态延续到从句所指的整个时间,此时通常要用while。

如:I always listen to the radio while I’m driving. 我总是一边开车一边听收音机。

He didn’t ask me in; he kept me standing at the door while he read the message. 他没有让我进去,他只顾看那张条子,让我站在门口等着。

但是,若主句和从句所表示的两个同时进行的动作含有“一边……一边”之意时,则习惯上要用as。

如:He swung his arms as he walked. 他走路时摆动着手臂。

I couldn’t remember a story to tell the children, so I made one up as I went along. 我想不出有什么故事可给孩子讲了,只好现编现讲。

3.“主长从短”型:即主句是一个持续性动作,而从句是一个短暂性动作,此时可以用a s或when,但不能用while。

如:It was raining hard when [as] we arrived. 我们到达时正下着大雨。

When [As] he came in, I was listening to the radio. 他进来时,我在听收音机。

4.“主短从短”型:若主句与从句表示的是两个同时发生的短暂性动作,含有类似汉语“一……就”的意思,英语一般要用as (也可用when)。

如:The ice cracked as [when] I stepped onto it. 我一踩冰就裂了。

He jumped to his feet as the boss came in. 老板一进来他立刻站了起来。

但是,在hardly/scarcely/rarely。

when。

句型中,只能用when。

表示“一……就……”(指过去的事情)。

sb.had hardly/scarcely/rarely done sth.when...=Hardly /Scarcely/Rarely had sb.done sth.when...I had hardly/scarcely/rarely closed my eyes when someone knocked at the door.=Hardly /Scarcely/Rarely had I closed my eyes when someone knocked at the door.我刚一闭上眼,就有人在敲门了。

I had hardly/scarcely/rarely entered my room when the telephone rang.=Hardly /Scarcely/Rarely had I entered my room when the telephone rang.我刚一走进房门,电话就响了。

二、根据主句与从句动作是否同时发生来区分when从句的谓语动词可以在主句谓语动作之前、之后或同时发生;while和as从句的谓语动作必须是和主句谓语动作同时发生。

When he had finished his homework,he took a short rest.(从句动作在主句前)当他完成作业后,他休息了一会儿。

When I got to the airport,the guests had left.(从句动作在主句后)当我赶到飞机场时,客人们已经离开了。

When he arrives he’ll tell us all about the match. 等他到了,他会好好给我们讲讲那场比赛的情况。

When she had finished she waited as though for a reply. 她讲完之后等了等,仿佛是在等候回答似的。

三、根据是否具有伴随变化来区分若要表示主句动作伴随从句动作同时发展变化,有类似汉语“随着”的意思,英语习惯上要用as,而不用when或while。

如:The room grew colder as the fire burnt down. 随着炉火逐渐减弱,房间越来越冷。

As time goes by my memory seems to get worse. 随着时间的流逝,我的记忆力似乎越来越差。

注:若不是引导从句,而是引出一个短语,则用with,不用as。

如:With winter coming on, it’s time to buy warm clothes. 随着冬天到来,该买暖和衣裳了。

The shadows lengthened with the approach of sunset. 随着太阳下落,影子也逐渐伸长。

四、根据从句动作的规律性来区分若暗示一种规律性,表示“每当……的时候”,指"每一次",英语一般要用when。

When I turn on the TV, smoke comes out the back.每当我打开电视,就有烟从后面冒出.It’s cold when it snows. 下雪时天冷。

He smiles when you praise him. 你夸奖他时他总是笑笑。

五、根据是否具有“趁机”意味来区分若从句所表示的“当……的时候”具有“趁机”的意味,则通常用while。

如:Strike while the iron is hot. 趁热打铁。

I tried to slip the note to him while the teacher wasn’t looking. 我想趁老师不注意时把条子偷偷递给他。

有时也用when。

如:He stole the money when no one was by. 他趁旁边无人时把钱偷走了。

The boy looks at her repeatedly when she’s not looking. 那男孩趁她没看他的时候不断地盯着她看。

六、根据是否用作并列连词来区分when可用作并列连词,表示“在这时(突然)”;while也可以用作并列连词,表示“而”“却”(表示对比);但as则没有类似用法。

如:I was just about to go to bed when I heard a knock on the door. 我正要睡觉,听见有人敲门。

The children were running to move the bag of rice when they heard the sound of a motor bike.孩子们正要跑过去搬开那袋米,在这时他们听到了摩托车的声音。

We were dancing,when a stranger came in.我们正在跳舞,在这时突然一位陌生人走了进来。

One person may like to spend his vacation at the seashore, while another may prefer the mountains. 一个人会喜欢在海滨度假,而另一个人会喜欢在山里度假。

七、根据所引出的省略句来区分1.as和when之后均可直接跟一个名词,构成省略句;但是while一般不这样用。

如:As [When] a boy, he lived in Japan. 他小时候在日本。

As [When] still a student, he wrote a novel. 当他还是个学生的时候,他就写了一本小说。

2.when和while之后可接现在分词、介词短语、形容词等构成省略句,但as一般不这样用。

如:When [While] reading, he fell asleep. 他看书时睡着了。

When [While] in trouble, ask her for help. 遇到麻烦的时候你就去找她帮忙。

You must study hard while (you are) young, or you will regret when (you are) old. 你趁年轻时必须努力学习,不然到老了你会后悔的。
