在英語中,有一些名詞、副詞、分詞、介詞短語當(dāng)作連詞使用,引導(dǎo)狀語從句,本文對(duì)此作一歸納。
1. 名詞短語引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句。
(1)the moment, the minute, the second, the instant 等引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句。譯為“一……就……”,相當(dāng)于as soon as。例如:
The moment she comes, I’ll tell her.
The minute I heard the voice, I knew mother was coming.
注意: for a moment( 一會(huì)),for the moment(目前,暫時(shí)), 他們是介詞短語,作時(shí)間狀語。
(2)every time, each time, next time, the first time, any time 等名詞短語引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句,表示“每次”、“下次”、“第一次”、“任何時(shí)候”。例如:

The first time I saw her, l liked her.
The last time I met him, he was in Beijing.
You are welcome to come back any time you want to.
注意:for the first time(第一次),at any time(在任何時(shí)候),是介詞短語,作時(shí)間狀語。
2. 副詞引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句。
immediately, instantly, directly, presently 等引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句,譯為“一……就……”。例如:

3. 分詞引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句。
provieded(that)“如果”;supposing / suppose(that)“假使”;considering“考慮到”;given“如果”;seeing“鑒于”等分詞引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句。例如:
