As, when和while均为连接词。在一些情况下,As, when和while的用法相近,但在其他情况下,三者也会有略微的差别。今天小厚就带大家一起来看一看这三个词的用法吧~
As/when/while区别
我们可以用as, when和while来表示“当…时”,来连接同时发生的两个事件:
Another family arrived as we were leaving.
When my father was out working in the field, I helped with milking the cows, feeding the pigs.
While he was working, he often listened to music.
我们也可以用as, when和while + 过去进行时,用来表示背景事件:
As she was leaving the court, a crowd of photographers gathered around her.
Steven was very unhappy when things weren’t going well for him.
Lucy came into the room while he was waiting.
As的用法
我们用as连接发生在同一时间的两件事情。As后可以使用过去时/过去进行时,使用过去进行时更加强调其中一件事打断了另一件事,or在另一件事正在进行的过程中发生。
As she walked to the door, she thanked them for a lovely dinner.
As they were signing the contract, they noticed that a page was missing.
When的用法
我们可以使用when来引入在一个较长事件中间发生的单个的、已完成的事件。在这种用发下,我们通常在主句中使用进行时来描述较长的背景事件:
He was walking back to his flat when he heard an explosion.
根据上下文,when既可以表示“after”的意思,也可以表示“at the same time”的意思:
When(=After)you open the file, check the second page.
I eat popcorn when I am watching TV. (=at the same time)
我们常用just和when连用来表达事情在同一瞬间发生:
The phone always rings just when I’m closing the front door.
While的用法
我们通常用while连接两个同时发生的事件,且这两个事件持续时间较长:
We spent long evenings talking in my sitting-room while he played the music he had chosen and explained his ideas.
We were lying on the beach sunbathing while they were playing volleyball.
