英语方式状语从句的用法大全
一、往期状语从句回顾
二、方式状语从句
方式状语从句用来表示主句谓语动作发生的方式，通常由as、(just) as…so…、as if、as though等引导。
（一）as
as表示“正如”，其引导的从句既可以放在句首，也可以位于句末。如：
But Americans still talk about 'fall' just as people do in some parts of western England. （但是美国人还是说“fall”，就象英格兰西部有些地区的人现在说“fall” 一样。）
As is known to all, black powder was first invented in China. （众所周知，火药是最先在中国发明的。）
【注意】
此时的as，与“in the way+从句”的用法类似。如：
Do you work in the way I have shown you? （你是按我示范的方法做的吗?）
He can only do his homework in the way I told him. （他只会按我告诉他的方法做作业。）
以上两句中的in the way都可以换作as，即：
Do you work as I have shown you?
He can only do his homework as I told him.
（二）(just) as…, so…
“(just) as…, so…”表示“正如...一样，...也...”，此时as从句带有比喻的含义，多用于正式文体。如：
Just as you hate Mr Green, so I dislike his wife. （就像你憎恨格林先生一样.我也不喜欢他的妻子。）
Just as you would not, so neither would they. （正如你们不愿意一样，他们也不会答应的。）
（三）as if/as though
as if和as though都表示“好像”，两者的用法相同，其引出的状语从句谓语多用虚拟语气，表示与事实相反，有时也用陈述语气，表示所说情况是事实或实现的可能性较大。如：
1、与事实相反
I felt as if my heart would burst with joy. （我觉得自己高兴得心花怒放。）
She looks as if nothing had happened to her. （她当时看起来好像什么事都没发生似的。）
She dolled herself up as though she was a girl of eighteen. （她打扮得花枝招展，好像是个十八岁的姑娘似的。）
He acted this part as though he had been fainting with desire. （他演这一角色演得好像欲望令他变成如痴如狂一般。）
2、与事实相符
It seems as if he knows everything. （他似乎是个万事通。）
It looks as if it isn't clean enough to bathe here. （看起来海水好像不干净，不能游泳。）
It looks as though you've bungled again. （看来你好像又把事情搞糟了。）
The kitchen looks as though it's been repainted. （厨房看上去好象重新漆过一样。）
【注意】
as if / as though也可以引导一个分词短语、不定式短语或无动词短语。如：
He walked along as if favoring his sore foot. （他走路像是特别小心照顾他那只酸痛的脚似的。
He shook his head as if to say no. （他摇摇头好象在说不。）
The paper turned green as if by magic. （这纸魔术般地变成了绿色。）
He raised his hand as though to take off his hat. （他举起手来，象要脱帽似的。）
She smiled, as though solaced by the memory. （她笑了，仿佛在往事的回忆中得到了安慰。）
She looked anxious as though (she was) in trouble. （她看上去很焦急,好像遇到了麻烦。）
（四）the way
“the way+从句”表示“用这样的方法，从...的样子看来”。如：
It's a crime the way he bullies his children. （像他那样欺负自己的孩子真缺德。）
He's always knocking the way I do things. （他总是挑剔我做得不对。）
