状语从句
定义:
在句中作状语的从句是状语从句,修饰主句中的动词、形容词或副词等。状语从句由从属连词引导,从属连词在句中不充当句子成分,只起连接作用,状语从句放在句首时,要用逗号,放在句尾时不用。
状语从句主要用来修饰主句或主句的谓语。一般可分为九大类,分别表示时间、地点、原因、目的、结果、条件、让步、比较和方式。
尽管种类较多,但由于状语从句与汉语结构和用法相似,所以理解和掌握它并不难。状语从句的关键是要掌握引导不同状语从句的常用连接词
和特殊的连接词即考点。现分别列举如下:
二 地点状语从句
1. 地点状语从句可用where, wherever, anywhere, everywhere等引导。地点状语从句可用于主句之前或之后。 .
You are free to go wherever you like.
Where there is a will, there is a way.有志者,事竟成。
Wherever there is smoke, there is a fire.
无火不生烟(既无风不起浪) 。
2. 注意区分引导的定语从句与状语从句。
where 引导的地点状语从句直接修饰动词,而在定语从句中where 作为关系副词要跟在表示地点的先行词后面。
You'd better make a mark where you have any questions.(状语从句)
You'd better make a mark at the place where you have any questions.(定语从句)
三. 原因状语从句
1. 引导原因状语从句的从属连词有: because, as, since, now that, seeing that, considering that等,每个连词的含义不尽相同。
(1)because用来回答why 的提问,语气最强,一般放在主句之后;
(2)since表示既然或已知的理由,稍加分析即可表明的原因,多放在句首;
(3)as 多用于口语,语气比because ,since 弱,表示的理由是明显的或被认为是已知的,是对主句的附带说明,重点在主句,可放在句首或句尾,放在句尾时,as 可省略。
I can’t go,(as) I am busy.
(4)considering that, seeing that, now that 和since 的意义相似,都有“鉴于某个事实”的意思,that 可以省去。
As it is raining, we shall not go to the park.
Now that/Since everybody is here, let's begin our meeting.既然大家都到了,我们就开始我们的会议。 My friends dislike me because I’m handsome and successful.
Now that everybody has come, let’s begin our conference.
