as,when和while的區(qū)別:
1、As/When/While:A was happening, B happened或B happened as/when/while A was happening.
as,when,while用來表示“當(dāng)某事發(fā)生的時候,一個長的行為或事件正在進行”。
當(dāng)從句引導(dǎo)的句子表示持續(xù)性動作時,as/when/while引導(dǎo)的從句一般用過去進行時(was/were+動詞ing)。例如:

The telephone rang when i was having a bath 當(dāng)我正在洗澡的時候,電話鈴響了。
as,when,while都可以用現(xiàn)在時態(tài),如:
Please don't interrupt me when I'm speaking.當(dāng)我說話的'時候,請不要打斷
I often get good ideas while I'm shaving.當(dāng)我刮胡子的時候,我經(jīng)常能想到好點子。
2、 while A was happening,B was happening或While A happened, B happened
while用來表示兩個長動作或事件過去同時發(fā)生,用過去進行時或者過去時態(tài)。如:
