Humor of children learning English

1.When can guide both continuous action and short action, and can be used for the simultaneous occurrence of the main clause action and the subordinate clause action or the subordinate clause action before the main clause action. When the main clause is the future, the tense of the clause is the present tense. (When is it most used in practice?)

I told my children that when Lincoln was your age, he took 12 steps.

Go to school for several miles every day. But my son said, "That's nothing. When he was your age, he was already president. "

I told my children that when Lincoln was your age, he walked 12 miles to school every day. My son said, "that's nothing. He was president when he was your age."

There's another unknown side to President Reagan. When he was young, he read all Shakespeare's works. Of course, when Reagan was young, Shakespeare had not finished writing these.

President Reagan has another aspect that people don't know. He read the complete works of Shakespeare when he was young-of course, Shakespeare didn't write so much when Reagan was young.

Note: Ironically, Reagan studied less and was older.

When the adverbial clause of time guided by when is a system table structure, the subject is the same as the main sentence, and the slogan is a noun, the clause guided by when can be replaced by an ellipsis sentence guided by as. For example:

He read all Shakespeare's works when he was young.

He read all Shakespeare's works when he was young.

When the game is over, the king and the soldiers enter the same box.

At the end of the game, the king and the soldiers entered the same box.

Note: Life is like a game. At the end of the game, billionaires and ordinary people all enter coffins (or urns) of the same size. Finish is a short action, and the clause action precedes the main sentence action.

Scene reappearance: at the fund-raising party, you can make fun of it like this:

How noisy the audience can be when you ask for silence, and how quiet the audience can be when you ask for money.

What a surprise! ) When you asked for silence, there was a frenzy-when you asked for money, there was silence.
