高考频道整理《高中英语词义辨析:as soon as/hardly…when/no sooner…than》,供高考考生参考,希望对考生有所帮助。 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. 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: I’ll 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) I’ll 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 sooner…than 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 sooner…than 一般用来描述做过的事情,它不能用于表示将来的事。 3、hardly…when... 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. 他刚写完文,灯就熄了。 He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house. 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。 高考频道将第一时间发布高考报名信息、高考招生简章、自主招生等考生关注的热点资讯!
