用作状语的从句称为状语从句。状语从句常用于修饰动词、形容词或副词等,按其意义和作用主要可以分为以下几种:
(一)时间状语从句
1. when, while, as
when为“当……时”的意思,指某个具体的时间,表示一件事跟着另一件事发生;while为“当……的时候”的意思,强调主句中的动作与从句中的动作在某一段时间内同时发生;as表示“当……时”或“一边……,一边……”的意思,也强调两件事同时发生。例如:
(1)We’ll have a big party for him when he gets here.
(2)I hurt my back while I was shoveling snow.
(3)He whistles while he works.
(4)Tom slipped as he was getting off the train.
2. before, after
before表示“在……之前”的意思,一般主句动词的动作发生在从句动词的动作之前;after表示“在……之后”的意思,一般主句动词的动作发生在从句动词的动作之后。例如:
(1)I’ll read for a while before I go to bed.
(2)She got a new job after she studied computer.
(3)She’s going to watch TV after she finishes washing the dishes.
3. till, until
till, until为“直到……为止”的意思,until更为正规。在句首多用until。例如:
(1)He waited till his mother returned.
(2)I watched him until he disappeared.
(3)We danced and danced until a lot of them joined in.
★用till和until时要注意主句中的动词是否有持续性,如果动词没有持续性,是瞬间动词,主句要用否定式表示状态。在否定句中经常译为“直到……才”。例如:
(1)She won’t get a better job until she learns English.
直到她学了英语,她才可以得到一份较好的工作。
(2)I didn’t begin to work until she had gone. 直到她走了我才开始工作。
4. since, ever since
since, ever since表示“从……起”或“自从……以来”的意思。
since从句一般用过去时,表示动作的起点;主句用完成时,表示动作的延续。例如:
(1)She’s had several jobs since she first began to work.
(2)He’s learned a lot since he began working there.
(3)Ever since Maurice arrived, he has been sitting quietly in the corner.
如果主句中的动词不表示动作的延续而表示目前的状态,可用一般现在时。例如:
It is twenty years since she began to teach English.
5. as soon as, once, directly
as soon as, once, directly表示“一……就……”的意思。例如:

(2)Onec my daughter reaches the age of sixteen, she will be able to drive.

no sooner…than…, hardly…when…表示“刚……就……”的意思。例如:
(1)He had no sooner arrived than he began to complain.
(2)We had hardly got into the country when it began to rain.
★如果no sooner, hardly放在句首,句子要倒装,把had提到主语前面。例如:
(1)No sooner had he arrived than he began to complain.
(2)Hardly had we got into the country when it began to rain.
★no sooner, hardly引导的从句用过去完成时,主句用过去时。

★时间状语从句中动词时态的使用很关键,时间状语从句中的将来时要用一般现在时来表示。例如:

(2)The next time Paul flies to New York, he will visit his uncle.不可以说:The next time Paul will fly to New York, he will visit his uncle.
