as, while,when 与让步状语从句

as, while,when 与让步状语从句之袁州冬雪创作

1．as引导的让步状语从句，句子要求用倒装布局，此时的as相当于though，但比though引导的让步状语从句语意更强烈，表示力更强.如：

1）形容词＋as＋主语（代词）＋系动词，＋主句

Small as it was，the army had great fighting capacity．

这支部队虽然很小，战斗力却很强.

Young as he is，he knows many things．他年事虽小，知道的事可很多.

2）副词或动词原形＋as＋主语……，＋主句

Much as I like it，I will not buy it．虽然我很喜欢这东西，但不想买它.

Try as I would，I couldn't lift the stone．不管我使多大劲也搬不起这块石头.

Do as I might，I could not finish the duty．虽然我尽力做了，但仍未完成这项任务.

2．while引导的让步状语从句，while相当于though ／although.如：

While Smith loves his daughter，he is strict with her．

虽然史姑娘爱他的女儿，但仍严格要求她.

While I admit his good points，I can see his shortcoming．

虽然我承认他的优点，但我还是看到了他的缺点.

While I believe it，I must consider． 我虽信，但还要思索一下.

3．when引导的让步状语从句，when相当于though ／although.如：

We'll try to finish the work in time when we are short of manpower．

虽然我们缺乏人力，但我们还是要按时完成这项工作.

We had only two books when we needed five．

虽然我们需要五本书，可我们却只有两本.
