as_soon_as__hardly…when__no_sooner…than用法区别.doc

as soon as, hardlywhen, no soonerthan用法区别scarcelywhenas soon as, hardlywhenno soonerthan这三个短语都有“一就”、“刚刚就”的意思，它们的意思非常相近，因此有时可以互换。例如：“我刚到公共汽车站，汽车就开了。”一句，就可以有如下几句译法：As soon as I got to the bus stop, the bus started.Hardly had I got to the bus stop when the bus started.No sooner had I got to the bus stop than the bus started.Scarcely had she entered the room when(before) the phone rang.她一进屋电话就响了。但他们之间也有一些差异，例如，如果从两件事情的间隔时间来说，as soon as 较长，no sooner.than 居中，hardly.when 间隔时间最短。其它的一些区别见下面，请大家在运用的时候要留意。1、as soon as它的意思相当于“A事情发生以后，就做B这件事”。这个短语用的比较常用，口语和书面语都可以。它的特点是，在句子中的位置比较灵活，而且可以用于各种时态。例如：Ill write you as soon as I get there.我一到那儿就给你来信。（一般现在时）As soon as I went in, Katherine cried out with pleasure.我一进门，Katherine 就高兴的叫起来。（一般过去时）Ill return the book as soon as I have read it.我一读完就把书还回去。（现在完成时）Andrew left as soon as he had drunk his coffee.Andrew一喝完咖啡就走了。（过去完成时）2、no soonerthan它的意思相当于“刚做完A这件事，就做B这件事”。例如：He had no sooner returned than he bought a house.他一回来就买了一套房子。如果no sooner 位于句首，主句要用倒装结构。例如：No sooner had he arrived than he went away again.他刚到就又走了。No sooner had the game started than it began to rain heavily.运动会刚开始，天就下起了大雨。有一点要注意，no soonerthan 一般用来描述做过的事情，它不能用于表示将来的事。3、hardlywhen.它的意思是“几乎未来得及做完A这件事，紧接着就开始B这件事。”使用这个短语时，一般用于过去完成时；并且when有时可改用before。例如：He had hardly finished the article when the light went out. 过去完成时他刚写完文，灯就熄了。He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house. 过去完成时他还未安顿下来，就卖掉了那所房子。另外，如果把hardly放于句首，主句要用倒装结构即谓语动词要提前。如：Hardly had I finished eating when he came in.我刚吃完他就进来了。Hardly had she gone out when a student came to visit her.她还没走出家门，就有一个学生来看望她no sooner.than是一.就.的意思.必须要倒装 一般句型是no sooner had sb done than.这是部分倒装no sooner than . equals to as soon as. eg:No sooner was the frost off the ground than the work began. 地上的霜一消散，人们就开始工作了. hardly when Hardly had the thief seen the policeman when he ran away. = Scarcely had the thief seen the policeman before he ran away. =No sooner had the thief seen the policeman than he ran away.
