as和while的意思很多,且在句子中经常出现,有没有一些方法能很简单的辨别出来?
like侧重A B两者间的比较,并不意味着A和B属于一类或完全相似.
  例如:He speak English like an Englishman.(=in a way an Englishman
  speaks English.)
  表示有些相象
  as则侧重于同一性,意味着A B两者属于同一类或完全相似.
  例如:He speaks English as an Englishman.(=as well as an English.)
  表示讲得一样好
  很早的时候,like是形容词,表示相象、相同、类似等意;as是连接词。
  Samy and Sammy are very like. Samy和Sammy长得很像。
  Paul behaved as a child(does).保罗的举止像个小孩。(句子有省略)
  后来,like作为介词使用,表示像…一样;as也可以作为介词使用了。
  Paul behaved like a child.保罗的举止像个小孩。(句子没有省略)
  再比较:
  Let me speak to you as a father.让我以父亲的地位对你说说。(=I am your father and I am speaking to you in that character)
  Let me speak to you like a father.让我像你父亲那样对你说说。(= I am not your father but I am speaking to you in the way your father might)
  再后来,有些语法学家把以往like不允许作连词使用的规则也改了,用来代替引导方式状语从句的as。
  I can''t sing like I used to do.我不能像过去那样地唱了。(指唱的音色)
  He writes just like his brother did when he was young.他写字的手法和他兄弟年轻时写的差不离。(指书法的风格和字型)
  即使如此,like和as有时还是有些区别的。试比较:
  The prisoner was hanged like a murderer.这个囚徒像杀人犯那样被处以绞刑(=…as if he were a murderer)。
  The prisoner was hanged as a murderer.这个犯人作为杀人犯被处以绞刑。(这个犯人就是杀人犯)
  连词while大致有以下四种用法:
  1.引导时间状语从句,意为"当……的时候;和……同时",此时的主从句谓语动作同时发生,从句谓语通常是延续性动词。如:
  Mary watched TV while she ate her supper.玛丽边吃饭边看电视。
  While she was listening to the radio, she fell asleep.她听着收音机睡着了。
  while引导从句时,如主从句的主语一致,且从句谓语又含有be,则从句主语和be可省略。while后可直接跟现在分词、名词、形容词或介词短语。如:
  We are teachers while (we are) serving as students.我们边当老师边当学生。
  While (he was) yet a youth, he gained many prizes.他年轻时就曾多次获奖。
  He caught a cold while(he was) on vacation.他度假时患了感冒。
  2.表示对比或转折,意为"而;然而"。此时,while一般位于句中。如:
  Some people waste food while others haven't enough.有些人浪费粮食,然而有些人却吃不饱。
  You like sports, while I prefer music.你喜欢体育,而我更喜欢音乐。
  3.表示让步,通常位于句首,意为"尽管;虽然"。如:
  While I agree with your reasons, I can't allow it.尽管我同意你的理由,但我不能允许这样做。
  While he loves his students, he is very strict with them.虽然他爱他的学生,可是他对学生们很严格。
  While (he was) respected, he is not liked.他虽受人尊敬,但并不被人喜欢。
  4.表示条件,意为"只要",其意思和用法相当于as long as。while可位于句首,也可位于句中。如:
  You don't have to worry while we are here.只要我们在,你就别着急。
  There will be life while there is water and air.只要有空气和水,就有生命。
  While there is life, there is hope.留得生命在,不怕没希望。
  5.意为"同时;也"。如:
  While the book is welcomed by schol-
  ars, it will make an immediate appeal to the general readers.这本书受到学者的欢迎,同时也会引起一般读者的兴趣。
  6.意为"趁着"。如:
  Make hay while the sun shines.晒草要趁阳光好。(谚)
  Strike while the iron is hot.趁热打铁。(谚)
  While the roses are yet in bloom, will you come with me to see them?趁着玫瑰花还开着,你和我一道去看看好吗
