case有以下幾種搭配: any case表示無(wú)論如何; no case表示絕不。when有以下幾種用法:1.表示什么時(shí)候、何時(shí);2.可以引導(dǎo)從句;3.俚語(yǔ)“入鄉(xiāng)隨俗”。

一、case用法

any case

in any case表示的含義是“無(wú)論如何…”,在邏輯上引出一個(gè)結(jié)果。

例句:

In any case,GM has much bigger worries than s sales crown.

無(wú)論如何,通用汽車要擔(dān)心的絕不僅僅是個(gè)銷售王冠的丟失。

no case

in no case表示的含義是“絕不…”。需要注意的是,當(dāng)這一表達(dá)用于句首時(shí),需要進(jìn)行倒裝處理。

例句:

In no case can we cheapen the quality of products.

在任何情況下我們都不能降低產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量。

As our tradition,tribe chiefs are in no case allowed to leave the earth where they were born and raised up.

我們每一代首領(lǐng),絕對(duì)不能離開(kāi)他們出生的土地。

being the case

such being the case表示“既然如此”,其作用是“強(qiáng)調(diào)之前的某個(gè)條件并得出結(jié)論”。

例句:

The roads are bad,and such being the case,we must drive slowly.

道路很糟,情況既然如此,我們只好把車開(kāi)慢點(diǎn)兒。

You know,the home prices are expected to keep rising,and such being the case,we were very lucky to have a house of our own.

你要知道,房屋價(jià)格一直就沒(méi)下跌過(guò),情況既然如此,我們能有一幢自己的房子就算很幸運(yùn)了。

二、when怎么用

表示什么時(shí)候、何時(shí)

When are you going??

的從句

We'll go when you're ready.

你準(zhǔn)備好了我們就出發(fā)。

3.俚語(yǔ)“入鄉(xiāng)隨俗”
