狀語從句指句子用作狀語時,起副詞作用的句子.它可以修飾謂語、非謂語動詞、定語、狀語或整個句子.
　　根據(jù)其作用可分為時間、地點(diǎn)、原因、條件、目的、結(jié)果、讓步、方式和比較等從句.狀語從句一般由連詞(從屬連詞)引導(dǎo),也可以由詞組引起.從句位于句首或句中時通常用逗號與主句隔開,位于句尾時可以不用逗號隔開.
　　考點(diǎn)聚焦
　　1、時間狀語從句
　　(1)as、when、while用
　　as表示"當(dāng)……的時候",往往和when/ while通用,但它著重強(qiáng)調(diào)主句與從句的動作或事情同時或幾乎同時發(fā)生.
　　She came up as I was cooking.(同時)
　　The runners started as the gun went off.(幾乎同時)
　　when:(at or during the time that )既可以表示在某一點(diǎn)的時候,又可表示在某一段時間內(nèi),主句與從句的動作或事情可以同時發(fā)生也可以先后發(fā)生.
　　It was raining when we arrived.(指時間點(diǎn))
　　When we were at school, we went to the library every day.(在一段時間內(nèi))
　　while意思是"當(dāng)……的時候"或"在某一段時間里".主句中的動作或事情在從句中的動作或事情的
　　進(jìn)展過程中發(fā)生,從句中的動詞一般要用延續(xù)性動詞.在when表示a period of time時,兩者可以互換.
　　Please don't talk so loud while others are working.
　　He fell asleep while/when reading. Strike while the iron is hot.(用as或when不可,這里的while意思是"趁……")

　�、賢ill, not … until …, until, before, since
　　Don't get off the bus until it has stopped.
　　He waited for his father until(till)it was twelve o'clock.
