核心问题

One refers to the type of listening practice which we do when learning a foreign language. 如何分析上句中的 when learning?

词典解答

分词作状语时,只能根据逻辑关系而不能根据语法特征来判定它是时间状语、条件状语或让步状语等。因此,有时会遇到很难判定其归属的情形。如果在分词之前加上 when, while, since, if, once, though, unless 等连词,就会很清楚地表明状语的性质。上句中的 when learning ...一看便知是时间状语。对于这种结构也可以作另外的解释:when learning 是省略了主语和助动词的时间状语从句。when learning = when (we are) learning

  1. While trying to open the can, I cut my hand. 在试图打开罐头时,我划破了手。

  2. Be careful when crossing the street. 过马路时要小心。

  3. If travelling north, you must change at Leeds. 如果到北方旅行,你必须在利兹换车。

  4. Though understanding no Spanish, she was able to communicate with the other students. [“Though she understood no Spanish, …”] 尽管她不懂西班牙语,但是她能跟其他学生交流。
