case有以下几种搭配: any case表示无论如何; no case表示绝不。when有以下几种用法:1.表示什么时候、何时;2.可以引导从句;3.俚语“入乡随俗”。

一、case用法

any case

in any case表示的含义是“无论如何…”,在逻辑上引出一个结果。

例句:

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

无论如何,通用汽车要担心的绝不仅仅是个销售王冠的丢失。

no case

in no case表示的含义是“绝不…”。需要注意的是,当这一表达用于句首时,需要进行倒装处理。

例句:

In no case can we cheapen the quality of products.

在任何情况下我们都不能降低产品质量。

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

我们每一代首领,绝对不能离开他们出生的土地。

being the case

such being the case表示“既然如此”,其作用是“强调之前的某个条件并得出结论”。

例句:

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

道路很糟,情况既然如此,我们只好把车开慢点儿。

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,房屋价格一直就没下跌过,情况既然如此,我们能有一幢自己的房子就算很幸运了。

二、when怎么用

表示什么时候、何时

When are you going? 

你什么时候走?

When's the assignment due? 

作业什么时候交?

When did you last see Lucy?

你最后一次见露西是什么时候?

When do we board/depart?

的从句

我小的时候去过那里。

3.俚语“入乡随俗”
