Who gives me some difficult questions about English adverbial clauses?

Clause is one of the key contents in the vocabulary and syntax part of the senior high school entrance examination. When reviewing adverbial clauses, the main task is to find out the usage of conjunctions that guide various adverbial clauses. The main checkpoints are briefly described as follows:

1. Conjunction of adverbial clauses pointing to time

There are mainly when, while, as, by the time, before, after, since, till/ until, as soon as possible and so on. What time? While and as can both mean "when", but there are differences in usage:

(1) when means "when" ...; When can mean "a little time" or "a little time", and the predicate of the clause can be an ending verb or a progressive verb. For example:

When I got home, he was having dinner.

②as means "when ..." or "at the same time with ...", which means that two actions occur at the same time. Accompany. When the as clause is a terminal verb, the main clause must usually be a terminal verb. For example:

They sang while dancing.

(3) While can only mean "a period of time", and the predicate of the clause is limited to the progressive verb. For example:

My father came in while I was sleeping.

Note: when the predicate of a clause is a continuous verb, when, while and as can be interchanged? Lord? When the predicates of clauses are both terminal verbs, can when and as be interchanged? When a clause predicate indicates a state, it is usually used while.

2. Causing adverbial clauses conjunctions

Cause adverbial clauses are generally guided by because, since, as, for? Pay attention to the difference between as, because, since and for:

If the reason is the most important part of the sentence, it is generally used because. Because the leading clause is generally not placed at the beginning of the sentence. For example:

I missed the train because I got up late.

Note: for questions that start with why, you can only answer them with clauses that start with because.

(2) If the reason is known or not as important as the rest of the sentence, use as or since, and since is slightly more formal than as. Clauses guided by as and since are usually placed at the beginning of a sentence. For example:

As he was in poor health, I decided to go there by myself.

Since this method doesn't work, let's try another one.

For indicates that the reason is a supplementary explanation, so the clauses guided by for can be placed in brackets, and the clauses guided by for are generally not placed at the beginning of the sentence. For example:

I decided to stop for lunch because I felt very hungry.

3. Conjunctions leading to adverbial clauses of result

There are mainly so/so … that …, so that and so on.

1) So ... this structure can be transformed with "enough" and "too many" structures ... in some cases. For example:

She is too short to reach the button of the elevator. She is too short to reach the elevator button.

2)so that can also guide the adverbial clause of the result, meaning "the result is; That ". For example:

They missed the bus, so they were late for class.

Note: so that can also guide the adverbial clause of purpose, which can be replaced by to or order and changed into a simple sentence. For example:

He got up early so that he could get to school on time. He got up early in order to get to school on time. In order to get to school on time, he got up early.
