4. At school.Some students are active__while__some students are shy.yet they can be friends with one another.

只有在形容词+as+主语+to be/to seem/to appear这一结构中，as才以为though/although。
比如tired as he was he offered to carry her=Though he was tired, he offered to carry her.
while可以意味but，用于表示强调对比，比如Some people waste food while others haven't enough.如果用while表示although的话，就要放在句首。
when可以意为seeing that/although。因此用法和while很相似，但是主要用于引导使另一个动作显得不合理的陈述句，并且常常用在问句中。比如说：How can you expect your children to be trustful when you yourself tell lies?
这是四个词的交叉点。另外when \while\as之间也有一定的交叉，他们的区别易于区分，用的时候注意两点：1、when\as偏向于短暂性动作，while偏向于持续性动作，2、as常用于主句从句都是发展性、趋势性动作的连结。
