状语用法

英语中,修饰动词、形容词、副词等的句子成分叫状语（adverbial)。
状语的功用：状语说明地点、时间、原因、目的、结果、条件、方向、程度、方式和伴
随状况等。
状语一般由副词、介词短语、分词和分词短语、不定式或相当于副词的词或短语来担当。
其 位置一般放在句末，但也可放在句首或句中。
副词是一种用来修饰动词,形容词,副词或全句的词,说明时间,地点,程度,方式等概念。
1.副词一般在句子中做状语．
He speaks English very well. 他英语说得非常好.中的very是程度状语，用来修饰well。
He is playing under the tree.他在树下玩儿.中的under the tree是地点状语.
2. 不定式在句子中可以作目的状语。
I come specially to see you.我专门来看你.
3.介词短语
Ten years ago, She began to live in Dalian.
The boy was praised for his bravery.
4.从句作状语
When she was 12 years old, she began to live in Dalian.
If I am not busy tomorrow, I will play football with you.
5.分词作状语
Having had a quarrel with his wife, he left home in a bad temper。
Inhibited in one direction, it now seems that the Mississippi is about to take another.

什么是状语
1状语是谓语里的另一个附加成分,它附加在谓语中心语的前面,从情况,时间,处所,方式,条件,对象,肯定,否定,范围和程度等方面对谓语中心进行修饰或限制.
状语与定语相同 的地方是,都是前加附加成分;不同的地方是,它是谓语里的附加成分,而
定语是主语或宾语里的附加成 分.从句子的层次上看,状语是在第二个层次和第三个层次里的
成分,有时甚至是更低层次的成分.
2状语的构成
状语的构成经常充当状语的有形容词,副词,时间处所名词,能愿动 词,指示代词,以及方位
短语,介词短语,动宾短语,谓词性联合短语,谓词性偏正短语,谓词性主谓短 语等.
含有动量词的数量短语以及重叠式的数量短语(不论动量,物量)也可以充当状语.
此外,少数名词带上表比况的助词也可以作状语.
3状语的书面标志——地
状语的书面标志是结构助词地状语后面带或者是不带地情况比较复杂.一般讲来,
数量短语 ,主谓短语,动宾短语等作状语时,大都带地而介词短语,方位短语,能愿动词,时间
处所名词作状语时 不能带地副词,单音节形容词作状语一般也不带地
4多层状语
如果一个中心语前 面有好几个状语(多层状语),那就应当注意它们的语序.多层状语的状
语个数一般比多层定语的定语个 数要少些,其语序也比多层定语的语序要灵活一些.
多层状语的一般语序:

a.表时间的名词或方位短语,介词短语;
b.副词.
c.表处所的介词短语或名词,方位短语;
d.表情态的形容词或谓词短语;
e.表对象的介词短语.
其中副词的位置较为灵活,也可放置在第三项之后.
5一般状语和句首状语
状语在句子中有两种位置:一种是在主语之后,谓语中心之 前,如上文所举各例,这是状语
的一般位置;另一种是放在主语的前面的,这是状语的特殊位置,这种状 语可称句首状语
6状语的分类
状语按其修饰的功能不同可分为八大类：
时间状语，条件状语，原因状语，目的状语，结果状语，让步状语和比较状语
[编辑本段]
时间状语从句
要点: 时间状语从句，由以下连词引导：
when ，while， as， after ，before， as soon as， since ，till until by the time 在时间
状语从句中，要注意时态一致。一般情况下主句是将来时的时候，从句要用一般现在时。
当******的时候
Mozart started writing music when he was four years old.
(当)莫扎特4岁的时候，开始写音乐作品。
当。。。时
He visited a lot of places while he was traveling.
他在旅途中参观了许多地方。
在。。。的同时；一边。。。一边。。。
He smiled as he stood up.
他一边站起来一边笑着。
在。。。之后
He left the classroom after he had finished his homework the other day.
前几天做完作业之后回的家。
在。。。之前
Mr. Brown had worked in a bank for a year before he came here.
布朗先生来这之前已经在一家银行里工作一年了。
soon as 一。。。就。。。
We began to work as soon as we got there.
我们一到那就开始工作。
I will write to you as soon as I get home.
我一到家就给你写信。
自。。。以来 到现在
表示自过去的一个起点时间到目前(说话时间)为止的一段持续时间。主 句一般用现在完
成时，从句用一般过去时。

Mr Green has taught in that school since he came to China three years ago.
自格林先生来中国以来，他就在这所学校教书。
(还可以用作介词，本句从句还可以用短语：since three years ago(自三年前以来)表示。)
8 till until
都可以作连词，连接时间状语，也可以作介词，与其它词构成介词短语，在句中作状语。
They walked till until it was dark.
他们一直走到天黑。
Xiao Ming didn’t leave home till until his father came back.
小明直到他爸爸回来才离开家。
9. by the time 到。。。为止 (所在句子的主句应用现在或过去完成时)
By the time he gets there , his father has already gone.
他到家的时候，他爸爸已经走了。
By the time I got to school, the class had already began.
我到校时，已经开始上课了。
一 .由when, while, as引导的时间状语从句。例如：
When you think you know nothing, then you begin to know something.当你以为自己一无
所知的时候，你就是在开始知道一些事物了。
When truth is buried under the ground it grows, it chokes, it gathers such an explosive force
that on the day it bursts out , it blows up everything with it.当真理被埋在地下的时候，它在生
长，它感到压抑，它蓄存着 这么一种爆炸性力量，一旦冒出，它就会炸破一切！
Strike while the iron is hot. 趁热打铁。
Will you watch my clothes while I have a swim. 我游泳的时候，请你照看一下我的衣服。
You can feel the air moving as your hand pushes through it. 当你的手在空气中挥动的时
候，你就能感觉到空气在流动。
Our headmaster laughed as she spoke.我们的校长边谈边笑。
a .when, while和as的区别
when引导的从句的谓语动词可以是延续性的动词，又可以是瞬时动词。并且when有
时表示“就在 那时”。
例如：
When she came in, I was eating.她进来时，我在吃饭。(瞬时动词)
When I lived in the countryside, I used to carry some water for him.当的住在农村时，我常
常为他担水。（延续性的动词）
We were about to leave when he came in.我们就要离开，就在那时他进来了。
While引导的从句的谓语动作必须是延续性的，并强调主句和从句的动作同时发生（或
者相对应）。并且while有时还可以表示对比。例如：
While my wife was reading the newspaper, I was watching TV. (was reading是延续性的动
词，was reading和was watching同时发生)
I like playing football while you like playing basketball.我喜欢踢足球，而你喜欢打篮球。
（对比）
b, As表示“一边……一边”，as引导的动作是延续性的动作，一般用于主句和从句动作
同时发生 ；as也可以强调“一先一后。例如：
We always sing as we walk.我们总是边走边唱。（as表示“一边……一边”）
As we was going out, it began to snow.当我们出门时，开始下雪了。（as强调句中两个 动
作紧接着先后发生，而不强调开始下雪的特定时间）

c, as when while的辨析
as when while都表示主、从句动作同时发生，三者差异如下：
表示“一边。。。一边＂的意思
as 强调两个动作同时进行，并表示对比时
用于发生时间较段时
d when
1、还可以表示从句动词的动作在主几句动词的动作＂之前 ＂或＂之后＂发生。
2、when＝and then; at that moment (正在那个时候)
3.常用于常见搭配中
e while
1、用于时间较长时
2、 强调两个动作同时进行，并表示对比时
有时这三个连词可以互换，有时不可以。
lt was raining hard when (as) I got there.
我到那里时，正在下大雨。 ( 动作同时发生，when可换为as, 但不能换为while，因
为get是点动词.)
When I had read the article, he called me.
我看完这篇文章之后，她给我打了电话。( 从句动作发生在主句之前，注意时态表达，
只能用when )
When I got to the cinema, the film had begun.
(当)我到了电影院时，电影已经开演了。(从句的动作发生在主句之后，只能用 when,并
要注意时态)
He was about to leave, when the telephone rang.
他正要离开，忽然电话响了。( 此时不能放在句首。主句动词一般表达 “正在” “即将”.
while, as不能代替
She thought I was talking about her daughter, while, in fact, I was talking about my daughter.
他以为我在谈她女儿，然而，实际上在谈论我女儿。(表转折，对比，when, as都不能
代替它)
While the alien was buying a souvenir, the girl called the police.
外星人买纪念品时，那女孩给警察打了电话 。(表示主句，从句的动作同时发生，while
后引导的状语从句的动词必须是延续动词不能是点动词 ，因为它表示较长时间)
Mother was worried because little Alice was ill, especially as (when while) father was away.
妈妈担心，因为小爱丽丝病了，特别是他父亲不在家的时候。(此时as ,when, while可
通用)
二 .由before和after引导的时间状语从句。
注意before引导的从句不再用否定式的谓语，并且当before引导的从句位于主句之后，
有时译成“就，才”。还要注意主句和从句之间的时间关系。当主句用将来时，从句总是用现
在 时；如果before引导的从句谓语用的是过去时，则主句动词多用过去完成时，这样以便
体现动作发 生的先后。After表示主句动作发生在从句动作之后。主句和从句的动作的时间
关系正好与befo re引导的从句相反。例如：
It will be four days before they come back. 他们要过四天才能回来。
Einstein almost knocked me down before he saw me.爱因斯坦几乎把我撞倒才看到我。
My father had left for Canada just before the letter arrived.我父亲恰好在信到之前去加拿大
了。

They had not been married four months before they were divorced. 他们结婚还不到四个月
就离婚了。
After you think it over, please let me know what you decide.你仔细考虑过以后，告诉我你
是怎样决定的。
After we had finished the work, we went home.完成工作之后，我们回家了。（从句用过去
完成时，主句用一般过去时）
三 .由till或until引导的时间状语从句。
till和until一般情况下两者可以互 换，但是在强调句型中多用until。并且要注意的是：
如果主句中的谓语动词是瞬时动词时，必须用 否定形式；如果主句中的谓语动词是延续性动
词时，用肯定或否定形式都可以，但表达的意思不同。例如 ：
I didn't go to bed until（till） my father came back.直到我父亲回来我才上床睡觉。
It was not until the meeting was over that he began to teach me English.直到散会之后他才
开始教我英语。
I worked until he came back.我工作到他回来为止。
I didn't work until he came back.他回来我这才开始工作。
Please wait until I arrived.在我到达之前请等我。
四 .由since引导的时间状语从句。
since引导的从句的谓语动词可以是延续性的动词，又可以是瞬时动词。一般情况下，
从句谓语动词用一般过去时，而主句的谓语动词用现在完成时。但在It is ＋时间＋since从
句的句型中，主句多用一般现在时。例如：
I have been in Beijing since you left. 自从你离开以来，我一直在北京了。
Where have you been since I last saw you? 自上次我和你见面以后，你到哪里去了？
It is four years since my sister lived in Beijing. 我妹妹不在北京住有四年了。
It is five months since our boss was in Beijing.我们老板离开北京有五个月了。
五 知识扩展
1. It is since从。。。以来多长时间了(因为since +从句或名词，表示一段时间)
It is five years since we met last time.从我们上次见面已经五年了。
2. It is +before…(。。。才)
It was a long time before I went to sleep again.
过了很长时间我才睡着。
It was an hour before(＝until) the police arrived.
过了一个小时，警察才来。
3. 由as soon as, immediately, directly, instantly, the moment, the instant, the minute, 等引
导的时间状语从句。这些连词都表示“一……就”。例如：
I will go there directly I have finished my breakfast. 吃完早饭，我立即到那里去。
The moment I heard the news, I hastened to the spot.我一听到消息，马上赶到了出事地点。
As soon as I reach Canada, I will ring you up. 我一到加拿大，就给你来电话。
【注意】hardly(scarcely, rarely)…when before, no sooner…than相当于as soon as之意。
主句用过去完成时，从句用一般过去时。当hardly, scarcely, rarely和no sooner位于句首时，
主句应用倒装语序。例如：
He had no sooner arrived home than he was asked to start on another journey. 他刚到家，就
被邀请开始另一旅程。
No sooner had the sun shown itself above the horizon than he got out of bed to commence
work.太阳刚从地平线上升起，他就起床劳动去了。

Hardly had I sat down when he stepped in.我刚坐下，他就进来了。
He had hardly fallen asleep when he felt a soft touch on his shoulder.这个阿拉伯人刚要入
睡就感到肩膀上被轻轻一触。
六 .由by the time引导的时间状语从句。
注意时态的变化：在一般情况下，如果从句的谓语动词 用一般过去时，主句的谓语动词
用过去完成时；如果从句的谓语动词用一般现在时，主句的谓语动词用将 来完成时。例如：
By the time you came back, I had finished this book.到你回来时，我已经写完这本书了。
By the time you come here tomorrow, I will have finished this work. 你明天来这儿的时候，
我将已经完成此工作了。
七 由each time, every time和whenever引导的时间状语从句。例如：
Each time he came to Harbin, he would call on me. 他每次来哈尔滨，总是来看我。
Whenever that man says“To tell the truth”, I suspect that he's about to tell a lie.每当那个人
说“说实在话”的时候，我猜想他就要说谎了。
You grow younger every time I see you. 每次遇到你，见你更年轻了。
八 .由as long as和so long as引导的时间状语从句。这两个连词表示“有多久……就多
久”。例如：
You can go where you like as long as you get back before dark. 你可以随意到哪里去，只要
在天黑以前回来就行。
I will fight against these conditions as long as there is a breath in my body! 只要我一息尚
存，我就要反对这种境况。
[编辑本段]
地点状语从句
一 地点状语从句 (adverbial clause of place)
地点状语从句一般由连接副词where, wherever等引导，已经形成了固定的句型，
要点: 由连词where和复合关系词wherever (=no matter where )引导.
例如：
句型1：Where＋地点从句，（there）＋主句。
【注意】此句型通常译成“哪里……哪里就……”；主句在从句后面时，there可用可不
用；如果主 句在从句的前面时，一般都不用there。例如：
Where there is no rain, farming is difficult or impossible.在没有雨水的地方，耕作是困难
的，或根本不可能的。
They were good persons. Where they went, there they were warmly welcomed. 他们都是好
人。因此他们走到哪里都受到热烈欢迎。
You should have put the book where you found it. 你本来应该把书放回原来的地方。
Where the Communist Party of China goes, there the people are liberated.哪里有了中国共
产党，哪里人民得解放。
句型2：Anywhere wherever＋地点从句，＋主句。
【注意】anywher e本身是个副词，但是，常可以引导从句，相当于连词，意思相似于
wherever, anywhere引导的从句可位于主句之前，也可以位于主句之后。 而wherever本身就
是个连词，表示“在何处，无论何处”。例如：

Wherever the sea is , you will find seamen.有海就有海员。
二 知识扩展
there is a will , there is a way.
有志者事竟成。(谚语)
will be mixed school where not all the children are disabled.
他将是一所混合式学校，那里的儿童并不都是残疾。(在限定性定语从句中对先行词起
着限定作用。)
er you go , I go too.
无论你到什么地方，我都去。(wherever=no matter where)无论何处，多用于句首。
er there is smoke , there is fire.
无风不起浪。(谚语)
4. While she was wondering where to go , she met a policeman.
疑问副词where后跟不定式,构成不定式短语.
[编辑本段]
条件状语从句
要点： 表示状语从句由连词if, unless (=if not) 意思为除非引导。(让步)
it doesn’t rain tomorrow, we will go hiking.
如果明天不下雨, 我们就去远足.
will get good grades if you study hard.
如果你努力学习,就会取得好成绩.
3.I won't will not go to the party unless he goes there too.
我不会去参加聚会的, 除非他也去.(如果他不去,我也不去.)
will be late unless you leave immediately.
如果你不马上走,你将会迟到的.(=If you don’t leave immediately, you will be late.)
难点提示：用条件状语从句时要注意时态的正确使用,当主句是将来时的时候,从句要用
一般现在时.
lHe will not leave if it isn’t fine tomorrow.
一般将来时， 一般现在时
lThey are going to have a picnic if it doesn’t rain next week.
一般将来时, 一般现在时
[编辑本段]
原因状语从句
要点: 由连词because, since, as引导, 也可由for, now that 等词引导
1.I didn’t go to school yesterday because I was ill.
我昨天没去上学，因为我生病了。

2. Since everybody is here, let’s begin our meeting.
既然大家都来了, 让我们开始开会吧.
3. As you are in poor health, you should not stay up late.
既然你身体不好, 你就不该熬夜.
4.I asked her to stay to tea, for I had something to tell her.
我请她留下来喝茶,因为我有事要告诉她.
.难点——because , since , as , for,辨析
1） becau se语势最强，用来说明人所不知的原因，回答why提出的问题。当原因是
显而易见的或已为人们所知 ，就用as或 since。
I didn’t go, because I was afraid.
Since As the weather is so bad, we have to delay our journey.
2） 由because引导的从句如果放在句末，且前面有逗 号，则可以用for来代替。但
如果不是说明直接原因，而是多种情况加以推断，就只能用for。
He is absent today, becaus e for he is ill.
He must be ill, for he is absent today.
[编辑本段]
目的、结果状语从句
要点： 目的状语从句由连词that, so that, so…that , in order that 引导。
结果状语从句由连词( so )that, so…that, such…that, so muchmany…that引导。
…that 如此…以至于
The scientist’s report was so instructive that we were all very excited.
科学家的报告很有教育性，我们感到很兴奋。
He always studied so hard that he made great progress.
他总是那么努力，所以他取得了很大的进步。
that 以至于, 以便于
I’ll run slowly so that you can catch up with me. (目的)
我将慢慢跑以至于你能赶上我。
I opened the window so that fresh air might come in. (目的)
我把窗户打开以便于使新鲜空气可以进来。
3. such…that 如此。。。以至
It’s such nice weather that all of us want to go to the park.
天气是如此的好，我们大家都想去公园玩。
order that=so that:为了
We shall let you know the details soon in order that you canmay make your arrangements.
不久我们将会让你知道详情,以便你们能够做出安排。(目的)
5.比较：so和 such
其规律由so与such的不同词性决定。such 是形容词，修饰名词或名词词组，so 是副
词，只能修饰形容词或副词。 so 还可与表示数量的形容词many, few, much, little连用，形
成固定搭配。
so foolish such a fool

so nice a flower such a nice flower
so many few flowers such nice flowers
so much little money. such rapid progress
so many people such a lot of people
（ so many 已成固定搭配，a lot of 虽相当于 many，但 a lot of 为名词性的，只能用
such搭配。）
so…that与such…that之间的转换既为 so与such之间的转换。
The boy is so young that he can’t go to school.
He is such a young boy that he can’t go to school
难点
+形容词或副词
+形+a(an)+单数可数名词
so +many 或few+复数可数名词 +that
+much或 little+不可数名词
so that ,such…that 都可以in order that两者皆可引导目的地状语从句和结果状语从句，
当他们引导目的状语从句时，从句的谓语里常常有can, could, may, might, will, would等
次。
so +adj或adv.+ that， such +n.+ that 以上两种句型都表示结果,其中so为副词,后接形容
词，副词原型，当可数名词前有many, few；不可数名词前有much, little修饰时，应采用句
型：so many (few, much, little )+n. 。 such为形容词, 后只能接名词。这名词既可以地可数
的，也可以是不可数的。如果这名词是可数的,则必须在名词前加不定冠词a(an). 常见的形
式是:such a (beautiful)garden, such(nice)people.
1。I’ve had so many falls that I’m black and blue all over.
我跌了很多跤，浑身数摔得清一块紫一块.
2。there are so few notebooks that I can’t give you any.
笔记本太少了,我一本也给不了你.
3。It is such nice weather that I’d like to take a walk.
天气是如此只好,以致于我想去散散步.
4。Mike is so honest a man that we all believe him.
麦克是如此诚实的一个人,以致于大家都相信他
(=Mike is such an honest man that we all believe him.)
5。The weather is so nice that I’d like to take a walk.
天气是如此只好,以致于我想去散散步.
[编辑本段]
让步状语从句
要点: 表示让步的状语从句由连词 though, although引导.
难点：
lthough, although当虽然讲, 都不能和but连用. Although,(though)…but的格式是不对的.
但是他们都可以同yet (still) 连用. 所以thought (although)…yet(still)的格式是正确的.
Wrong: Although he is rich but he is not happy.

Right : Although he is rich, yet he is not happy.
虽然他很富有, 然而他并不快乐.
Right : Although we have grown up, our parents treat us as children.
Right : Although we have grown up, our parents still treat us as children.
尽管我们已经长大了,可是我们的父母仍把我们看作小孩.
although, though 辨析
although 不能though 那样用作副词, 放在句末表示强调时要用even though.
1。He is looking fit, though.
但是,他看上去很健康. 考点
2。Even though I didn’t under a word, I kept smiling.
尽管我一个字也不懂，我还是一直微笑着。
3。He is quite experienced, he is young, though.
尽管他很年轻，他很有经验。
典型例题
1） ___she is young, she knows quite a lot.
A. When B. However C. Although D. Unless
答案：C。意为虽然她很年轻，却知道许多。
2) as, though 引导的倒装句
as though引导的让步从句必须表语或状语提前（形容词、副词、分词、实义动词提前）。
Child as though he was, he knew what was the right thing to do.
= Though he was a small child, he knew what was the right thing to do.
【注意】
a. 句首名词不能带任何冠词。
b. 句首是实义动词，其他助动词放在主语后。如果实义动词有宾语和状语，随实义动
词一起放在主语之前。
Try hard as he will, he never seems able to do the work satisfactorily.
= Though he tries hard, he never seems…
虽然他尽了努力，但他的工作总做的不尽人意。
c ever if, even though. 即使
We’ll make a trip even though the weather is bad.
d whether…or- 不管……都
Whether you believe it or not, it is true.
e 疑问词或疑问词+后缀ever
No matter what happened, he would not mind.
Whatever happened, he would not mind.
替换：no matter what = whatever
no matter who = whoever
no matter when = whenever
no matter where = wherever
no matter which = whichever
no matter how = however
注意：no matter 不能引导主语从句和宾语从句。
（错）No matter what you say is of no use now.
（对）Whatever you say is of no use now.

你现在说什么也没用了。(Whatever you say是主语从句)
（错）Prisoners have to eat no matter what they’re given,
（对）Prisoners have to eat whatever they’re given. 囚犯们只能给什么吃什么。

[编辑本段]

方式状语从句
1） 方式状语从句通常由as, (just) as…so…, as if, as though引导。
as, (just) as…so…引导的方式状语从句通常位于主句后，但在(just) as…so…结构中位于
句首，这时as从句带有比喻的含义，意思是正如…，就像，多用于正式文体，例如：
1。Always do to the others as you would be done by.
你希望人家怎样待你，你就要怎样待人。
2。As water is to fish, so air is to man.
我们离不开空气，犹如鱼儿离不开水。
3。Just as we sweep our rooms, so we should sweep backward ideas from our minds.
正如打扫房屋一样，我们也要扫除我们头脑中落后的东西。
2） as if, as though
两者的意义和用法相同，引出的状语从句谓语多用虚拟语气，表示与事实相反，有 时也
用陈述语气，表示所说情况是事实或实现的可能性较大。汉译常作仿佛……似的，好
像…… 似的，例如：
1。They completely ignore these facts as if (as though) they never existed.
他们完全忽略了这些事实，就仿佛它不存在似的。（与事实相反，谓语用虚拟语气。）
2。He looks as if (as though) he had been hit by lighting.
他那样子就像被雷击了似的。（与事实相反，谓语用虚拟语气。）
3。It looks as if the weather may pick up very soon.
看来天气很快就会好起来。（实现的可能性较大，谓语用陈述语气。）
[说明]as if as though也可以引导一个分词短语、不定式短语或无动词短语，例如：
1。He stared at me as if seeing me for first time.
他目不转睛地看着我，就像第一次看见我似的。
2。He cleared his throat as if to say something.
他清了清嗓子，像要说什么似的。
3。The waves dashed on the rocks as if in anger.
波涛冲击着岩石，好像很愤怒。

状语从句在写作中的运用
写作中能合理、正确地使用状语从句， 不但能地道的表达英文习惯，而且还能使文体结
构更加严谨、美观。例如下文：
My hobby
The hobby I enjoy most is fishing.
I started fishing (1)when I was five years old. I’ll never forget the day (2)when my father first
took me fishing with him. On that day, I was holding a fishing rod (3)when a fish suddenly started
pulling on the line. (4)I was so shocked that I fell into the water. But experience didn’t put me off
and I have been fishing ever since.
Now I still go fishing with my father. And we often go out on Sundays and spend the whole

day fishing in the river.
(1)是由when引导的时间状语从句，这列从句的使用频率很高。
(2)句是由I’ll never forget the day .及when my father first took me fishing with him.两局组
成。When在从句中做时间状语。
(3)句也是由when 引导的时间状语从句。When 常与suddenly 连用，主句常用过去进
行是。译为 “正在……, 忽然……”.
(4)是以 so…that… (太…..以致于……)引导的结果状语从句.
语文状语
定义:状语是名词前 面的连带成分,用来修饰、限制、动词或形容词,表示动作的状态、方
式、时间、处所或程度等.
例句:(括号内为状语)
他[已经]走了
咱们[北京]见
歌声[把王老师]带入深沉的回忆
科学[终于以伟大的不可抑制的力量]战胜了神权
说明:1.副词、形容词经常做状语.
2.表示时间、处所的名词经常做状语,一般名词不做状语动词中除助动词外很少做状语.
3.介词结构常做状语
4.一般状语紧连在中心词的前边,但表示时间、处所、目 的的名词或介词结构作状语时,
可以放在主语的前边.如[在杭州],我们游览了西湖美景.
