SEFC新教材第一册第三单元P30上有这样一个句子：while still a student,she played roles in many plays.（当她还是个学生时，她就已经在许多戏剧中扮演角色了。）在这个主从复合句中，我们不难看出“省略”的语言现象。While still a student实际上是while she was still a student的省略（省略了she was）。
“省略”是英语中比较常见的语言现象，它可以使语言表达更简洁、明了。一般来说，省略现象较多出现在下列五种状语从句中：由when,while,as,before,after,till,until,once等引导的时间状语从句；由if,unless,whether等引导的条件状语从句；由though,although,even if,whatever等引导的让步状语从句；由as,than等引导的比较状语从句；由as,as if,as though等引导的方式状语从句。
这五种状语从句的省略比较复杂，为了便于大家理解和掌握，从两种最为基本的省略原则入手，对此进行归纳和总结。
一、当状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致时，经过一定的变化可以把状语从句的主语和谓语的部分或全部省略，这时，从句可出现如下结构：
1.连词(as,as if,once-)＋名词
①As (he was)a young man,he joined the Eighth Route Army.
他在青年时代就参加了八路军。
②His friend acts as if(he were)a fool.
他朋友的行为举止像是一个傻子。
③Once(he was) a teacher,he now works in a government office.
以前他是位教师，如今他在政府部门工作。
2.连词(though,as if,when-)＋形容词
④My brother Jack talked to the stranger as if(she were)absent-minded.
我兄弟和陌生人谈话似乎很不在意。
⑤He studies very hard though(she is)still rather weak.虽然身体不好，但他学习很努力。
⑥When(water is)pure,water is a colorless liquid.水纯净时，它是无色的液体。
3.连词(as,as if,when,while-)＋介词短语
⑦When(I am)in trouble,I always turn to my teacher for help.
我困难时，总是找我的老师帮助。
⑧He opened the desk,as if(he was)in search of something important.
他打开抽屉，仿佛要一件重要的东西。
⑨While(he was)in Beijing,he studied law.他在北京时学的是法律。
4.连词(when,while,though,before,after-)＋现在分词
⑩When(you are)drinking to someone's health,you raise your glasses,but the glasses should not touch.
为某人健康祝酒时，要举杯，但不要碰杯。
注：这里的when不能用as来代替，因为as在引导时间状语从句时，没有这种省略现象。因此，我们不能说：As walking,she found a nice wallet on the ground.
(11)Although good manners always make you look good,you do not need to worry about all these rules while(you are)having dinner with friends of family.
尽管礼貌的举止总能给人印象，但也不必在与亲友聚餐时拘泥于礼节。
(12)After studying English(Afier he studied English),he got a small job at film studio.
学习英语之后，他在一家电影制片厂找了一份小工。
(13)Befole leaving(Befroe you leave),turn off the lights and shut the window.
5.连词(when,once,as if,than-)＋过去分词
(14)The football player is rolling on the ground as if(he is)hurt badly in the leg.
足球运动员在操场上打滚，似乎他的脚伤很厉害。
(15)When(he was)asked the secret of his success,Steven Spielberg said that he owes much of his success and happiness to his wife and children.
当有问起他成功的秘诀时，Steven Spielberg说他的成功和快乐主要来自妻子和孩子们。
(16)The exhibition is more interesting than(it was)expected.
展览比预料的要有趣得多。
6.连词(as if,as though-)＋不定式
(17)From time to time,Jason turned round as if(he were)to hunt for someone in the crowd.
Jason不时地回头好像在人群中找一个人。
(18)He opened his lips as if(he were)to say something·他张开嘴，好像要说什么。
二、当从句中的主语是it，谓语动词又含系动词be时，可以把it和系动词be一起省略。此时构成：
连词 (if,unless,where,whenever,as soon as-)＋形容词的结构。如：
(19)Whenever(it is)possible,you should come and help.
不管什么时候只要有可能就来帮忙。
(20)You should let me know the result as soon as(it is)possible.
你应尽快让我们知道结果。
(21)If(it is)true,this will cause us a lot of trouble.
如果是真的，这会给我们带来很多麻烦。
(22)Lay these clothes where (it is)possible you can find them easily.
把这些衣服放在你可能容易找到的地方。
另外，我们还可以看到以下状语从句的省略现象：
(23)She has finished the work earlier than(it has been)expectied.
她这项工作比预料的提前完成了。
(24)Send the clothes now if(they are)ready.
衣服如果作好了，请送过来。
(25)My little sister can play the violin.just as good as you(do).
我小妹的小提琴拉的和你一样好。
(26)Errors,if(there are)any,should be corrected.
如果有什么错误，就应该改正。
