真心求教while表转折时是否有 at the same time 的含义啊？

今天复习Prep2008-test1时，第223题对while的用法解释与Prep2008-test2第181题得解释有冲突，现贴出来和大家探讨下下，冲突部分加粗，请各位CDer一起探讨多多赐教啊！
223.(GWD-23-Q23)After several years of rapid growth, the health care company became one of the largest health care providers in the metropolitan area, while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its payment to doctors and hospitals.

A.while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its payment to

B.while it then proved unable to handle the increase in business and fell months behind in its payment to

C.but then it proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in its paying

D.but then proving unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in paying(E)

E.but then proved unable to handle the increase in business, falling months behind in paying

A．即便表示转折对比，while也有”at the same time“的含义在里面，与then矛盾，并让句意变成了the health care company expanding and falling是同时发生的，但是实际上应该是先became largest，然后再fell；its payment没有问题，只是没有in paying to简洁

181.(GWD-24-38)In January 1994 an oil barge ran aground off the coast of San Juan, Puerto Rico
, leaking its cargo of 750,000 gallons into the ocean, while causing the pollution of the city's beaches.

A.leaking its cargo of 750,000 gallons into the ocean, while causing the pollution of

B.with its cargo of 750,000 gallons leaking into the ocean, and it polluted

C.and its cargo of 750,000 gallons leaked into the ocean, polluting

D.while it leaked its cargo of 750,000 gallons into the ocean and caused the pollution of(C)

E.so that its cargo of 750,000 gallons leaked into the ocean, and they were polluting



题目释义:..an oil barge ran aground, and its cargo leaked……., polluting

考点：题目释义，逻辑表达

1. while的用法：

while引导的从句：

1)意思是“当…时”，放句首或句中

2)意思是“转折对比contrast”时，多放在句中，也可以放在句首。while表示对比概念的时候，两个事物要是同时发生（但是while本身并没有at the same time的意思，所以while at the same time是可以prep 1-96）。

3)意思是“虽然、尽管”（让步）时，多放在句首。(=although)

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。

突然想到，是不是while表示对比时本身要求对比的事物是要同时发生的，因此223题中A项判错是while与then有冲突，而不是纠结于解释中所说的while是否包含at the same time的意思~~~ 自己先顶下，还请NN们快点现身说法吧！

NN们都去哪里了呀？？有人来帮帮我么？>_<

同问呀

单调唱

while at the same time肯定是对的。
while表达的是同一时间发生的事情。所以你那个223题用while就有问题了

我感觉因为有时不好区分while到底强调转折关系还是同时发生性

用while at the same time，就强调了while的转折含义。但不能否定while没有at the same time的意思。

第一个题中，while it then就矛盾了，即使强调while的转折关系也不能否认while的同时发生的概念。

我的个人理解，欢迎拍砖！！

感觉是it指代不明确，和while关系不大吧。while可以表示although的意思，用在这里不太好。

答案分别是E C?
