新概念英语-By the time的用法

日期:2020-04-07 10:08  点击:
要表示时间,很多人会用when来引导时间从句,今天我们来学习一个“高级”一点的时间从句句型:
By the time…, …
当……的时候……
 
说这个句型高级,除了因为使用了一个短语来引导之外,还有一个原因:使用这个句型时,主句中经常会用完成时
 
为什么?因为“By the time”引导时间状语从句时,表示“到……的时候”,主句则表示在此时间之前某个事件已完成。一般来说,当从句用过去时时,主句通常要用过去完成时。
 
By the time…也可以表示未来发生的事,这时,从句使用一般现在时表示将来,而主句则通常使用将来完成时!
 
也可以根据具体情况,使用其他的时态。
 
来试试你能不能用这个句型讲出以下意思:
1)    当我到达火车站时,火车已经走了。
2)   当我们到达电影院时,电影都开始了。
3)   当我到达学校时,已经开始上课了。
4)   当医生到达时,病人已经死了。
5)    当我到达宴会时,人们已经准备离开了。
6)   到我回家那时,他们会已经离开了。
 
现在来对答案:
1)   By the time I got to the station, the train had already gone.
2)  By the time we got to the theater, the movie had already started.
3)   By the time I arrived at school, the class had begun.
4)   By the time the doctor arrived, the patient had already died.
5)   By the time I got to the party, people were already leaving.
6)   By the time I get home, they will have left.
 
全部说对的,Jessie老师给你100个表扬!你的英文相当不错哦!
