可用于引导状语从句的“六类名词”

2011-07-13来源:和谐英语

四、the +序数词+time

其中的序数词包括first, second, third, fourth等,其意为“当第几次……的时候”。如:

My girlfriend beat me at poker the first time we played. 我头一次和女朋友打扑克,她就把我赢了。

The second time I saw her, she looked like an old woman. 我第二次见到她时,她看上去像一个老太婆。

The third time I went there, I found all of them had left and the offices were all empty. 我第三次去那儿时,我发现他们都离开了,所有的办公室都是空的。

注意:

1. next, last也具有类似序数词的性质,因此也具有以上用法。如:

Next time you come in, please close the door. 下次你进来,请关门。

The last time we talked he said he needed another two days. 上次我们谈话时他说他还需要两天。

2. the first time, the second time, the third time 等用作连词引导时间状语从句时,其前通常要有定冠词,而 (the) next time, (the) last time引导状语从句时,其中的冠词可以省略,如下面这道上海高考题,其答案是C,不是A:

I thought her nice and honest_________ I met her.

A. first time                     B. for the first time

C. the first time            D. by the first time

五、不定代词+ time

其中的不定代词主要包括each, every, any等。如:

Every time I ring her, the phone is engaged. 我每次给她打电话,电话都占线。

Every time I see him he either wants to tell me his trouble or borrow some money. 每次我见到他,他不是向我诉苦,就是要向我借钱。

He felt nervous each time she spoke to him. 每次她和他讲话,他都感到紧张。

Any time you come to London do look me up. 你无论什么时候到伦敦来,一定要来看我。

注意:every time, each time, any time用作连词引导状语从句时其前习惯上不用冠词,它与the first time, the second time, the third time 等引导时间状语从句时其前必须要用定冠词不同。
