从句省略“主语+be”的情况

一、由when/while/as soon as/once/until/if/unless/where等引导的状语从句,当从句主语与主句主语一致或从句主语为it时,可省去主语和be。

I’ll not go unless (I am) invited.

The news is important, if (it is) true.

注意,after/before没有这种用法。

二、由though/although/however/whatever/no matter how/what等引导的状语从句可省略主语+be或be。

He works very hard though (he is) still rather weak.

In our country everyone is an ordinary worker, no matter what his position (is).

在我国人人都是普通劳动者,不管他地位如何。(仅供举例用,无关内容真实与否。)
