47、hile从句表示一个持续的行为, 所以从句中要用持续性动词或状态动词, 且持续性动词常用进行时态。 e.g. Dont make any noise while I am recording. 我在录音时(你们)别发出声音。3. as soon as引导的时间状语从句as soon as表示“一就”，强调动作紧密相连。e.g. We began to work as soon as we got there. 我们一到那儿就开始工作了。4. before/after引导的时间状语从句。before表示“在之前”。after表示“在之后”。e.g. Before we begin dinner,

48、 my father gives thanks for the food. 吃饭前, 我父亲会表达(因拥有食物而产生的)感激之情。Mother sometimes prepares dinner after I come back from school.妈妈有时在我放学回家后才准备晚饭。5. when引导的时间状语从句 when的意思是“当的时候”, 既可以表示在某一时间点发生的事, 又可以表示在某一时间段发生的事。主句与从句描述的动作或事情可以同时发生, 也可以先后发生。e.g. When I got home, I found my baby girl singing in the si

49、tting room. 我到家时, 发现我的小女儿正在客厅里唱歌。6. until引导的时间状语从句 until表示动作或状态一直持续到某一时刻, 即“直到”。e.g. He waited until all the guests left. 他一直等到所有客人都走了。本模块第一单元对话中出现了包含until的句子，但until后接的不是时间状语从句，而只是时间状语：My parents and I are going to visit some friends in Shandong Province and well stay there until the end of the holi

50、day. 我和父母要去山东拜访一些朋友, 我们会在那儿一直待到假期结束。此句中until之后接的短语the end of the holiday等同于时间状语从句until the holiday is over。Step 3 Complete the sentences with the correct form of the words or expressions in the box.
