地点状语从句是由where（在……的地方），wherever（无论哪里）引导的：

表示条件的状语从句可以由if（如果）, unless（除非）, in case（万一）, so /as long as（只要）, as/ so far as（就……而言）, on condition that（条件是……）, suppose（假设）, supposing（假设）（仅用在问句中）等词或词组引导。一般情况下当主句是将来时的时候，从句要用一般现在时。

方式状语从句常由as（与……一样）, as if（仿佛）, as though（仿佛）等词引导：

Leave things as they are.让一切顺其自然。

8.比较状语从句

比较状语从句常由than（比）, as（与……一样）等词引导：

让步状语从句由although（尽管）, though（尽管）, however（无论怎样）, whatever（无论什么）, whoever（无论谁）, whomever（无论谁）, whichever（无论哪个）, whenever（无论何时）, wherever（无论哪里）, whether（是否）, no matter (who, what, where, when, etc)（无论……）, even if（即使）, even though（即使）等词引导。如：

Young as he is, he knows a lot=Though he is young或Young though he is, he….他虽然年轻，但懂得很多。

难点释疑：

1.当hardly, scarcely, no sooner位于引起的句子的开头时，常用倒装语序。

No sooner had he arrived there than he fell ill. Hardly had he finished when someone rose to refute his points. Scarcely had she fallen asleep when a knock at the door awakened her.这三组关联词引起的句子中，前面常用过去完成时，后面用一般过去时。

2.if和unless的用法

一般情况下，unless相当于if…not，可以互换。如：

I won't let you in unless you show me your pass = I won't let you in if you don't show me your pass.如果你不出示通行证，我就不让你进来。
