while和when的用法区别

如题。

when, while这三个词都有"当……时候"之意,但用法有所不同,使用时要特别注意。

①when意为"在……时刻或时期",它可兼指"时间点"与"时间段",所引导的从句的动词既可以是终止性动词,也可是持续性动词。如:

When I got home, he was having supper.我到家时,他正在吃饭。

When I was young, I liked dancing.我年轻时喜欢跳舞。

②while只指"时间段",不指"时间点",从句的动词只限于持续性动词。如:

While I slept, a thief broke in.在我睡觉时,盗贼闯了进来。

辨析

①when从句与主句动作先后发生时,不能与while互换。如:

When he has finished his work, he takes a short rest.每当他做完工作后,总要稍稍休息一下。(when = after)

When I got to the cinema, the film had already begun.当我到电影院时,电影已经开始了。(when=before)

②when从句动词为终止性动词时,不能由while替换。如:

When he came yesterday, we were playing basketball.昨天他来时,我们正在打篮球。

③当从句的谓语是表动作的延续性动词时,when, while才有可能互相替代。如:

While / When we were still laughing, the teacher came in.正当我们仍在大声嬉笑时,老师进来了。

④当从句的谓语动词是终止性动词,而且主句的谓语动词也是终止性动词时,when可和as通用,而且用as比用when在时间上更为紧凑,有"正当这时"的含义。如:

He came just as (or when) I reached the door.我刚到门那儿,他就来了。

⑤从句的谓语动词如表示状态时,通常用while。如:

We must strike while the iron is hot.我们应该趁热打铁。

⑥while和when都可以用作并列连词。

Mike is tall while his brother is short.迈克的个子很高,然而他弟弟很矮。

Mary was on her way home when two big boys stopped her.玛丽正走在回家的路上,这时两个大个子男孩拦住她。

(一)、when,while都有“当……时候”的意思。
  when既可表示某一点时间,也可以表示某一段时间

  在when引导的时间状语从句中,其谓语动词可以是延续性的,也可以是非延续性的,可与主句中的谓语动词同时发生,也可在其后发生。
  例如:
  1、I
was
just
reading
a
book
when
she
came
into
my
room.
  她走进我房间时,我正在看书。
  2、Were
you
writing
when
the
teacher
came
in?
  老师进来的时候,你在写信吗?
  3、When
he
was
a
child
he
was
always
trying
out
new
ideas.
  他小时候就常常试验一些新的设想。
  (二)、while只能表示某一段时间,不能表示某一点时间。在while引导的时间状语从句中,其谓语动词只能是延续性的,而且也只能与主句中的谓语动词同时发生或存在。
  例如:
  1、While
Jim
was
mending
his
bike,
Lin
Tao
came
to
see
him.
  正当吉姆修自行车时,林涛来看他。
  2、You
can’t
do
your
homework
while
you’re
watching
TV.
  你不能一边看电视一边做家庭作业。
  (三)、另外,when和while的区别还在于:while引导的时间状语从句多用进行时态,而when引导的时间状语从句多用一般时态。
  例如:
  1、While
they
were
talking
,
the
bell
rang.
  正在他们谈话的时候,上课铃响了。
  2、I
was
doing
my
homework
when
my
mother
came
back
home
yesterday
evening.
  昨天晚上妈妈回家的时候,我正在做家庭作
  注意:
  1)
如主句谓语动词表示的是短暂动作,从句时间状语指一段时间,when
while
as
三者可通用。
  例如:
  Peter
came
in
while
/as
I
was
watching
TV.当Peter进来的时候我正在看电视。
  I
was
watching
TV
when
Peter
came
in.
当Peter进来时我正在看电视。
  2)
as

when
可与非延续性动词连用,而
while
只能与延续性动词连用。
  例如:He
came
in
when/
as
I
was
going
to
bed.我正要上床睡觉,他进来了。
  3)
as

while可用来指一段时间,但
as
强调主句与从句表示的动作同时发生,while强调主句表示的动作是在
while
从句的动作延续中发生。
  例如:
  As
my
mother
sang
those
old
songs,
tears
ran
down
her
cheeks.
  当我妈妈唱起那些老歌时,眼泪顺着她的脸颊流了下来。
  I
came
in
while
he
was
reading
an
interesting
book
in
his
room.

when
和while的用法区别
两者的区别如下:
①when是at
or
during
the
time
that,
既指时间点,也可指一段时间;
while是during
the
time
that,只指一段时间,因此when引导的时间状语从句中的动词可以是终止性动词,也可以是延续性动词,而while从句中的动词必须是延续性动词。
②when
说明从句的动作和主句的动作可以是同时,也可以是先后发生;while
则强调主句的动作在从句动作的发生的过程中或主从句两个动作同时发生。
③由when引导的时间状语从句,主句用过去进行时,从句应用一般过去时;如果从句和主句的动作同时发生,两句都用过去进行时的时候,多用while引导,如:
a.
When
the
teacher
came
in,
we
were
talking.
当此句改变主从句的位置时,则为:
While
we
were
talking,
the
teacher
came
in.
b.
They
were
singing
while
we
were
dancing.
④when和while
还可作并列连词。when表示“在那时”;while表示“而,却”,表对照关系。如:
a.
The
children
were
running
to
move
the
bag
of
rice
when
they
heard
the
sound
of
a
motor
bike.
孩子们正要跑过去搬开那袋米,这时他们听到了摩托车的声音。
b.
He
is
strong
while
his
brother
is
weak.
他长得很结实,而他弟弟却很瘦弱。

While可用作并列连词,表示对比关系,意为“而,却”
也可表示时间,意为“当……的时候”,此时与When同义,当用法上有区别。
While强调前后两个动词同时发生(一般用于现在进行时态),
而When既可以表示两个动作同时发生,又可以表示两个动作的先后关系。
试比较:
When/While
I
was
watching
TV,
mother
was
cooking.
(当我在看电视的时候,妈妈在吃饭。两个动作同时进行。)
Some
students
were
singing
in
the
classroom
when
the
teacher
came
in.
(当老师进来时,一些学生在唱歌。)
