學習英語幽默句子，掌握高中英語語法(2)

　　3．As引導一個持續動作，多用于主句和從句的動作同時發生。如：

　　A man ate each night in the same restaurant and at the same table. One night, as he was leaving, he walked up a wall, across the ceiling, down another wall, and out the door.

　　“That’s odd,” his waiter said. “Usually he says good night.”

　　一個人每天都在同一家飯館同一張桌子上吃飯，一天晚上，當他離開時，他走上墻，穿過天花板，從另一面墻走下來，從門出去。

　　服務員說“真奇怪，他通常說晚安”。

　　注：服務員對那個男人的天馬行空習以為常，但對于他不打招呼就走感覺奇怪。

　　As I look back, there is only one thing I wish I could have saved for my old age --- the years between twenty and thirty.

　　我回頭看看只有一件東西是我希望為自己的老年保存起來的——20歲到30歲的歲月。

　　4．When還可以用作并列連詞，其意義為“在那時，在這時”，相當于and at this/that time。

　　Heisenberg is out for a drive when he\'s stopped by a traffic cop. The cop says, "Do you know how fast you were going?"

　　Heisenberg says, "No, but I know where I am."

　　HEISENBERG駕車外出被交警攔住。警察問，“你知道你開得多快嗎”？

　　HEISENBURG說，“不知道，但我知道我在哪兒”。

　　Frannie was kneeling down saying his prayers when her four-year-old brother sneaked（鬼鬼祟祟做事） up behind her and pulled her hair.

　　“Pardon me, God,” said Frannie, “I’ll be right back after I kick Herbie.”

　　Frannie正跪著祈禱，她四歲的弟弟從后面偷偷摸摸靠近她，揪他的頭發。她說，“原諒我，我踢了Herbie后馬上回來”。

　　5．While作為并列連詞，意為“而，卻”，表示對比。如：

　　While the chef’s dishes tonight are rather bland(乏味的), his ideas are fresh and

　　appealing.

　　今晚廚師的菜相當寡味，但他的思想卻清新誘人。

　　注：我們去吃飯，誰會關心廚師的思想呢？

　　Sir, I dont know how to tell this, but your imagination has just taken flight ____ while your facts are still on standby.（備用）

　　先生，我不知道怎樣告訴這點，但你的想象力已經逃跑，你的事實還在袖手旁觀。

　　注：諷刺某人胡編亂造，說話沒有根據。
