时间状语从句 编辑
when, as, while 编辑
when引出的时间状语从句，其中的动词既可以是延续性动作的动词，也可以是瞬间性动作的动词，而且可以表示主语的动作和从句的动作同时发生，或者从句的动作发生在主句的动作之前。
e.g.

as引出的时间状语从句，其动作是延续性的，而且侧重表示主句和从句的动作同时发生.
e.g.

while表示"在某一段时间里"或"在...期间"，其所引出的从句的动作是延续性的，且侧重表示主句和从句的动作同时发生。
e.g.
While the teacher paraphrased the text in English,the students listened attentively and took notes.
while还可用作并列连词，相当于whereas，连接一个表示对比的并列分句。
