In the first drawing, a girl is working hard. While/Whereas in the second drawing, a boy is sleeping.
请问老师,while,whereas表示对比时,能放在句子开头吗?在词典中没看到。
In the first drawing, a girl is working hard. While/Whereas in the second drawing, a boy is sleeping.
——这个句子有误。有两处错误:
1. 这里while 是并列连词,表示对比。因此,前面应该使用逗号并小写,它实际没有放在句子的开头,而是引导第二个并列分句,意为“然而;但是”。应改为:
In the first drawing, a girl is working hard, while/whereas in the second drawing, a boy is sleeping. 在第一幅画中,一个女孩在努力学习,而在第二幅画中,一个男孩却在睡觉。
词典例句:
Most digital camera owners are male, while women prefer film.
大部分数码相机的主人都是男性,而女性偏爱用胶卷。
Marianne was tempted to turn the large rooms into traditional French-style salons, while Howard was in favour of a typically English look...
玛丽安娜想把这些大房间弄成传统法式客厅的样子,但是霍华德喜欢典型的英式风格。
2. 如果while放在句首,那它就是一个从属连词,引导让步状语从句,意为“尽管;虽然”。
词典例句:
While I am willing to help, I do not have much time available.
尽管我愿意帮忙,但是没有多少时间。
While the numbers of such developments are relatively small, the potential market is large...
尽管这种增长的数量相对较小,但是潜在的市场是巨大的。
