《What were you doing when the rainstorm came?》PPT课件6
Revision: when vs. while
这两个词都有“当…的时候”的意思。
when 既可指某一点时间, 也可以指一段时间;
while 强调一段时间, 所以从句的谓语动词常是延续性的。
当 when表示“在某一段时间里” 的意思时, 它可以代替
while, 但while不能代替when.
e.g. When I came home, she was cooking dinner.
当我到家时, 她正在做饭。
When you hang wet clothes near a fire, you will see
steam rising from them.
当你把湿衣服挂在火边时, 你会看到水汽从衣服上升起。
