题目内容

It was 5 o'clock in the afternoon ________ we reached the city by the seashore.

[　　]

A．while

B．when

C．because

D．for

答案：B
解析：

　　此题考查学生对when和while这两个词的区别，when与While均可表示：“在……时候”，但while所引导的从句中其谓语动词不能由瞬间动词担任。如reach等，必须是表示持续性的动词。例如：

　　I looked around while she kept drawing.

　　我四处瞧瞧，她在画着什么。

　　They began to stand when I looked out of the window.

　　我看窗外时，他们开始站了起来。

　　第一句可以用when代替while，而第二句不能用while代替when，因为look out of是一个表示瞬间动作的动词词组。故选项A不可取。其他常用的瞬间动词如leave，go，start，begin，put，send，give等。

Dad began 45 along the road. I begged(乞求)all the way, telling him how I drove behind him for 40 miles, at a speed of 5 miles an hour. It was the most unforgettable lesson. I have never told a lie to him ever since.
