可用于引導(dǎo)狀語從句的“六類名詞”

英語中有些名詞結(jié)構(gòu)可用作從屬連詞，用以引導(dǎo)狀語從句，且主要是時(shí)間狀語從句。這類結(jié)構(gòu)歸納起來有以下六類：

一、the + 瞬間名詞

其中的瞬間名詞主要包括moment, minute, instant, second等，其意為“一……就……”，相當(dāng)于as soon as。如：

Telephone me the moment (that) you get the results. 你一有結(jié)果，馬上給我打電話。

I was so tired that I fell asleep the instant I closed my eyes. 我很累，一合上眼就睡著了。

She put down the receiver the second she recognized my voice. 她一聽出是我的聲音，馬上就放下電話聽筒。

注：其中的瞬間名詞后可接that，也可省略。另外，有的個(gè)別副詞（如directly / immediately等）也可表示類似意思。如：
