AttentionAttentionwhen 和 while 的异同 :

这两个词都有“当…的时候”的意思。when 既可指某一点时间，也可以指一段时间； while 强调一段时间， 所以从句的谓语动词常是延续性的。当 when 表示“在某一段时间里” 的意思时， 它可以代替 while ，但 while 不能代替 when.如：When I came home, she was cooking dinner.当我到家时，她正在做饭。When you hang wet clothes near a fire, you will see steam rising from them.当你把湿衣服挂在火边时， 你会看到水汽从衣服上升起。
