注释:
No. 5 : as 意为 “随着”
No. 7: when 指时间的 “一点”, 此句指 “他在最不抱希望的那一刻获得了成功.”
No. 11 : 状语从句中的动作如发生在将来,时态要用一般现在时, 如强调动作的
结果, 可用现在完成时。
No. 12: 注意，所有从句都要用陈述语序，另外，however 与late 不可分。
No. 13: She was ill, 实际是说话人的一种推测，即：She must have been ill.
No. 15:job 后非定语从句，故A和C都是错误的，全句意为“当（时间的一点）
你已经得到这么好的工作的时候，干吗还要再找新的工作呢？”
No. 19:as well as 引导的是比较状语从句。全句意为“ John踢足球如果不比David
好，至少也和他一样好。
No. 21:对话第一句表明对话前者已决定去邮局，故D错；另外去邮局和帮买邮
票也不存在因果关系，故C错；while 此时强调“在… 期间”。
No.24: 全句意为“既然(now that)你能得到这样一个机会，你也完全可以充分利
用它。
No. 28: as 意为“正如”。
No. 29: we could still take some pictures 意为“我们仍旧可以照相”，由此判定从
句意为“无论你愿不愿意带相机”， 故D为正确选项。
由以上分析可以看出，状语从句连接词的确定主要取决于句子的含义，在有上下文时，更要注意上下文的提示作用；而正确理解状语从句的含义，对于理解结构复杂的文章则起着至关重要的作用。
