请问此题为什么不选A,请大家帮忙解决!,谢谢!
如:The old man was about to sleep when someone knocked at the door.老人刚要睡觉,突然有人敲门。
这句话不能表示他们正要穿过马路的时候卡车驶来吗?那就是两个动作同时发生,应该用while.请解释,谢谢!
这两个动作的确是同时发生的,看例句比较:
While/When he was crossing the street,he was knocked down by a car.(当他穿过马路时,被一辆小汽车撞倒。)
这里主句是He was knocked by a car. 主句表达主要的意思;从句While/When.....作为状语用来表达主句的动作发生的时间。从句起陪衬作用,表达次要意思。
He was crossing the street when he was knocked down by a car.(他在过马路时,突然被一辆小汽车撞倒了。)
这个句子中的when 和前面的不一样,它包含了更重要的信息。是对所描述的事件予以惹人注目的强调并使之达到高潮。可以看出从句表达了主要意思,主句反倒成了陪衬。
其实,这也是when 和while 的不同用法之一。
你再回头看看你给的例句,哪个信息更重要,是等着过马路,还是有辆卡车朝他们驶过来?
when 的这种用法常见于下列句型:
主语+be+doing sth. when +从句。eg.He was still laughing loudly when the teacher came in.
主语+be about to do sth. when+从句。eg. We were about to start when it began to rain.
主语+had just done sth. when+从句。eg. She has just opened the door when she saw a large dog jumped at her.
所以当你看到主句是过去进行时、be about to、或过去完成时时,结合句意考虑从句用when
这个题只能选D。
句子意思:
这位女教师和她的小学生们正要穿过街道,突然一辆重型卡车朝他们开来。
考点:
时间状语从句
选项辨析:
A.while 在......期间/时段内;与......同时
B.as 一边/面......一边/面
C.until 直到
D.when 突然,就在那时;当......时
按照句子意思,这里表达【 突然,就在那时】,因此,不能用A。
替换理解:
when=and then;and at that time;and suddenly

这句话不能表示他们正要穿过马路的时候卡车驶来吗?那就是两个动作同时发生,应该用while.请解释,谢谢!
这里表示【一个动作正在进行,突然;就在那时发生另一动作】,即——
was waiting to cross the street ,后面不是【与此同时】,而是【突然发生的动作】。例如;
Mother was cooking 【while】Tom was watching TV.
【While 】 you are at the post office,please send the mail for me.
They were playing on the playground 【when】it began to rain.
英语解释:
when=and then;and at that time;and suddenly
while =in this period of time;and at the same time
你仔细体会看看,的确不一样。
