注意：在时间状语从句中，不能用一般将来时、过去将来时态或将来完成时，而要用相应的一般现在时态、一般过去时或现在完成时来代替。如：
I’ll telephone you as soon as I get there. 我一到达那里就打电话给你。

二、含 time的短语
可引导时间状语从句的 time 短语有every time, each time, (the) next time, (the) last time, by the time, the first time, any time 等。如：

三、表示“一……就……”
除as soon as外，还有三类：名词型——the moment, the minute, the second, the instant;副词型——immediately, directly, instantly;句式型——no sooner…than…, hardly/scarcely…when…。如：
The moment I saw him I knew that there was no hope. 我一看到他，就知道没有希望了。
