英语完成时态的运用问题!(急)到底什么时候该用完成时态?这个问题我总搞不清楚!有时候认为明明该用过去完成时态的,结果用的却是一般过去时;有时候认为该用一般时,用的确是完成时.
英语完成时态的运用问题!(急)
到底什么时候该用完成时态?这个问题我总搞不清楚!有时候认为明明该用过去完成时态的,结果用的却是一般过去时;有时候认为该用一般时,用的确是完成时.如新概念第三册lesson 5 的
Last year a journalist had been instructed by a well-known magazine to write an article on the president's palace in a new African republic.前有last year 提示词,后面应用一般过去时啊为什么有又用了完成时态呢?到底这两种时态怎么区分啊?
希望答案是高手们自己总结的,本人不太喜欢拷贝粘贴网上的资料(有些不太适合,看不大懂啊)
英语完成时态的运用问题!(急)到底什么时候该用完成时态?这个问题我总搞不清楚!有时候认为明明该用过去完成时态的,结果用的却是一般过去时;有时候认为该用一般时,用的确是完成时.
好多时候还真得靠自己的感觉去说.
我觉得应该是说去年那时已经是完成了这个命令( had been instructed),也就是说强调的是这个记者 (journalist)去年已经被命令写那篇文章了,而不是强调他被命令这个动作.当然这句话也能用 was instructed ,但结果就是强调被命令这个动作了,而没说是否已经完成了这个动作.这句子用过去完成时隐含他已经完成了这个命令的意思.
个人见解,仅供参考!
朋友你好
在已经明确事情已经完成时,或者表明事情已经完成时.在没有明确事情完成时用过去时。
比如:I did my homework this morning.(我今天早上写作业了,没有表明完成。)
Ihave done my homework this morning( 我今天早上写完了作业,已完成)

今天我们复习动词的时态,英语的时态是同学们学习英语的难点。今天我们复习如下的内容:
初中阶段学习的时态:
1.一般现在时。
2.现在进行时。
3.一般过去时。
4.过去进行时。
5.一般将来时。
6.过去将来时。
7.现在完成时。
8.过去完成时。
初中阶段所学的英语的时态有8种。英语的时态有很强的表达能力,能使句子的意思明确,能显示细微的差异,能使句子生动逼真。但它们又是相当灵活,在不同的时间中,要用不同的形式,这是与中文大不相同的地方。
1.一般现在时:一般现在时是描述经常性、反复性的动作、性质或状态的时态。
(1)一般现在时的时间
①often
②usually
③always
④seldom
⑤sometimes
⑥every+时间
⑦次数+时间
⑧on+时间
⑨in+时间
⑩没有时间,但表示客观存在的事实
(2)一般现在时动词的形式主要用动词原形表示,但如果主语是单数第三人称时,则在动词后加s或es,变成否定句和疑问句时,又将s、es去掉,还为原形。
①be动词的一般现在时的构成
否定式和疑问否定式如下表所示:
肯定式
疑问式
否定式
疑问否定式
I am a teacher.
Am I a teacher?
I am not./I’mnot a teacher.
Am I not a teacher?
He/ She is a teacher.
Is he/ she a teacher?
He/ She is not/ isn’t a teacher.
Is he/ she not a teacher? 或Isn’t he /she a teacher?
It is Mary.
Is it Mary?
It is not /isn’t Mary.
Is it not Mary?/ Isn’t it Mary?
We/ You/ They are teachers.
Are we/ you/ they teachers?
We/ You/ They are not/aren’t teachers.
Are we/ you/ they not teachers?或Aren’t we/ you/ they teacher?
②其他实义动词的一般现在时的构成
其他实义动词一般现在时的构成如下表所示(以动词work为例)
肯定式
疑问式
否定式
疑问否定式
I work.
Do I work?
I don’t work.
Do I not work?或Don’t I work?
He/ She /It works.
Does he/ she /it work?
He/ She/ It does not/doesn’t work.
Does he/ she/ it not work?或Doesn’t he/ she/ it work?
We/ You/ They work.
Do we/ you/ they work?
We/ You/ They do not/ don’t work.
Do we/ you/ they not work?或Don’t we/ you/ they work?
特别提示:
have(has)在表示“有”时,否定形式为haven’t(hasn’t)或have not(has not),变为疑问句时可直接把have(has)放在句首也可借助于助动词do(does)。当不表示“有”的意思时,其否定句和疑问句只能加助动词do(does)构成。
e.g.Has she any experience in teaching piano lessons?(√)
Does she have any experience in teaching piano lessons?(√)
她有教钢琴的经验吗?
Had you a good time going hiking yesterday?(×)
Did you have a good time going hiking yesterday?(√)
你昨天徒步旅行玩得开心吗?
上面我们列举了一般现在时的时间和动词的形式,在上述时间中,动词就要用到表格中的形式。
e.g.My sister ______(watch) TV every day.
因为“every day”,所以填“watches”。
He ______(teach) English.
因为没有时间说明他的职业,所以填teaches。
注意:在时间状语从句和条件状语从句中用一般现在时表示将来的动作。
e.g.We won’t go to the park if it rains tomorrow.
如果明天下雨,我们将不去公园。
When I grow up, I will go to America.
我长大后要去美国。
2.现在进行时

这种用法同学们只是了解一下,要用现在进行时,还应该用现在进行时的时间。
⑥进行时态用于瞬间动词。往往表示“即将……”,常与表示将来的时间状语连用。
这类动词有:come, go, leave, start. begin, stop, arrive, stay, return, take等。我们通常用这些动词的进行时,表示将要发生的动作。

昨天晚上7点钟他们在看电视。
注意:
He/ She /It was…不可缩略为He’s, She’s, It’s。He’s是He is或He has的缩略形式,She’s是She is或She has的缩略形式,It’s是It is或It has的缩略形式。
5.一般将来时
一般将来时的构成:一般将来时的构成如下表所示(以动词work为例):
肯定式
疑问式
否定式
疑问否定式
I /We shall work.
Shall I/ we work?
I/ We shall not work.

Will I /we/ you/ they/ he/ she/ it work?
I/ We/ You/ They/ He/ She/ It will not work.
Will I /we/ you/ they/ he/ she/ it not work?
英语口语中,常常为了说话的方便和简洁而使用动词的缩略形式。一般将来时的肯定缩略式为:
否定疑问缩略式为:
Shan’t I/ We…? Won’t I/ we/ you/ they/ he/ she/ it…?
一般将来时的基本用法:
“will/shall+动词原形”表示一个将要发生的动作或状态。在书面语中,主语是I或we时,常用shall,也可用will。在口语中,will可用于各种人称,而shall的用法范围较窄,且越来越有被will替代的趋势。
e.g.It’ll soon be Christmas and the New Year.
很快就到圣诞节和新年了。
I will/shall see you tomorrow and talk about the new plan.
明天我去找你谈谈有关新计划的事:

常与一般将来时连用的时问状语有:
next time下次 tomorrow 明天 next year 明年
tomorrow evening 明晚 before long 不久后 in the future 将来
the day after tomorrow 后天 this afternoon 今天下午
一般将来时的其他表达法:
除了will/shall结构可以表示将来之外,以下几种形式也是表示将来时态常用的结构。
①be going to表示将来:be going to结构在口语中常用来表示已经决定或安排要做的事,必然或很可能发生的事,也用来表示自然现象。
e.g.I’m going to gather some materials about Picasso.
我打算搜集一些有关毕加索的材料。
It’s going to be a fine day for surfing tomorrow.
明天将会是冲浪的好天气。
②be doing表示将来。
常用于这种结构的动词有go, come, leave, start, begin, run, leave, stay, do, take等。这种用法往往指安排好要做的事情,很少变更。
e.g.I’m doing my experiment tomorrow.
明天我要做实验。
She’s leaving early tomorrow morning.
明天她很早就出发。
③be to do表示将来。
这种结构表示计划中约定的或按职责、义务和要求必须去做的事或即将发生的动作。
e.g.The president is to visit China next week.
总统下周来访问中国。
The meeting is to take place early tomorrow.
会议明天一早召开。
用法比较:
be going to与will/ shall
be going to指当前的、已计划过或思考过的意图和打算,will/ shall表示未事先思考或未计划过的意图;be going to还可表示客观迹象表明马上要发生,而will则表明说话者的观点、主观意识。另外will/ shall还可作情态动词用,表示感情色彩。
e.g.It will be Christmas soon.
很快就是圣诞节了。(强调将来的状态)
I am going to listen to music.
我打算听听音乐。(现在的打算,指向将来)
I’ll answer the door.
我去开门。(未经事先考虑的意图)
I’m going to see him tomorr.
我打算明天去看他。(事先经过思考)
Look at the clouds. There is going to be a storm.
看看这些云彩,暴风雨要来了。(客观迹象)
I hope it will be warm tomorrow.
我希望明天会暖起来。(主观意愿)
6.过去将来时
过去将来时的构成:过去将来时的构成如下表所示:
肯定式
疑问式
否定式
疑问否定式
I /We shall /would work.
Would/ Should I/ we work?
I/ We shall/ would not work.
Would/ Should I/ we not work?
You/ They/ He/ She/ It would work.
Would you/ they/ he/ she /it work?
You/ They/ He/ She/ It would not work.
Would you/ they/ he/ she /it not work?
其缩略形式如下表所示:
肯定式
否定式
I’d/ We’d/ You’d/ They’d/ He’d/ She’d/ It’d
I’d/ We’d/ You’d/ They’d/ He’d/ She’d/ It’d not work.
I/ We/ You/ They/ He/ She /It wouldn’t work或I/ We shouldn’t work.
过去将来时的基本用法:
①过去将来时表示从过去某一时间看来将要发生的动作或存在的状态。这种时态主要用于宾语从句或间接引语中。
e.g.Last week he promised that he would come, but he hasn’t arrived until now.
上周他答应来的,可到现在都还没到。
He said that he would wait for me at the gate.
他说他将在大门口等我。
7.现在完成时
(1)现在完成时的构成:现在完成时的构成如下表所示:
(2)现在完成时的时间
① already 已经
② yet 已经
③ just 刚刚
④ before 从前
⑤ recently 最近
⑥ once 曾经
⑦ ever 曾经
⑧ never 从来没有
⑨ since+时间
⑩ for+时间
⑾ in the past/ last few years 在最近几年里
⑿ ever since then 从那时起一直到现在
(3)使用现在完成时需注意的问题:
①现在完成时和一般过去时的区别。
两者所表示的动作都发生在过去,但现在完成时强调这一动作与现在的关系、对现在产生的影响、结果等,所以不能与表示过去的时间状语连用;一般过去时只表示过去的事实,不表示与现在的关系,可以和表示过去的时间状语连用。
e.g.—Have you seen the TV play?
你看过这部电视剧吗?
—Yes, I have.
是的,看过。
—When did you see it?
你什么时候看的?
—I saw it sometime last year.
我是去年的某个时候看的。
②瞬间动词的完成时。
瞬间动词的肯定式通常不能与表一段时间的for短语、since短语或从句等连用,因为瞬间动词不能表示延续状态,它只能用现在完成时表达“已经做了”或“还没有做”,而不能表达“做了多久”。
e.g.I have joined the Youth Volunteers for five years.(×)
I joined the Youth Volunteers five years ago.(√)
或I have been a member of the Youth Volunteers for five years.(√)
我是五年前加入青年志愿者队伍的。
△初中所学的常用瞬间动词如下:
①leave→have been away
②die→has been dead
③buy→have had
④borrow→have kept
⑤open→have been open
⑥close→have been closed
⑦begin→have been on
⑧finish→have been over
⑨arrive→have been+地点
⑩come→have been+地点
⑾go→have been+地点
8.过去完成时
过去完成时强调的时间和动词是过去之前的过去。
(1)动词的结构:had+过去分词
(2)过去完成时的时间
①by+过去的时间
②by the end of+过去的时间
(3)过去完成时的其它用法
①用于when的主句、条件:从句的动作过了,主句的动作在从句的动作之前。
e.g.They had already had supper when I got home.
我到家时他们已经吃过了晚饭。
②用于before的主句
e.g.Before I went to bed, I had read a newspaper.
我睡觉之前看了一张报纸。
③用于after的从句
e.g.After I had finished my homework, I helped my mother with housework.
我做完作业后,帮助妈妈做了家务活。
△综上所述,我们明白了在英语中,动词的形式通常是随时间的变化而变化,但只要明确在各种时间中动词的形式,这一难题也就不难。下面我们来做几个练习题。
1.My mother often _______(watch) TV at home.
2.My mother _______(watch) TV yesterday.
3.My mother _______(watch) TV this time yesterday.
4.My mother _______(watch) TV now.
5.My mother _______(watch) TV tomorrow evening.
6.My mother _______(watch) TV for 2 hours.
7.My mother said that she _______(watch) TV by nine yesterday evening.
8.My mother said that she _______(watch) TV next week.
答案:
1.watches
2.watched
3.was watching
4.is watching
5.
6.has watched
7.had watched
8.would watch
典例剖析
例题1.—Hasn’t Betty come yet?
—No, and I _______for her for nearly 2 hours.(2008武汉市中考题)
A.wait B.waited
C.have waited D.had waited
解题技巧:
此题主要考查现在完成时和过去完成时的区别,for加时间通常用完成时态,但由于第一句问句用的是现在完成时,所以后面用现在完成时,说明wait这个动作还要持续下去。
答案:C
例题2.—I phoned you at seven yesterday evening. But nobody answered.
—I _______in the park nearby.(2008山东烟台市中考题)
A.walk B.walked
C.am walking D.was walking
解题技巧:
此题的命题陷阱在于第二句根本没有出现时间,所以看题时,要看问句的时间“at seven yesterday evening”,此句是回答这个时间的问题,所以用过去进行时。
答案:D
例题3.—China’s 24th science research team _______at Changchang station on Jan, 5, 2008.
—Wonderful! Our scientists _______ a lot in this field already.(2008哈尔滨中考题)
A.has arrived, improved
B.arrived, has improved
C.arrived, have improved
解题技巧:
第一句中因为有具体的过去了的时间,所以用过去式。第二句中因为有already,所以用现在完成时。
答案:D

与现在完成时连用的时间副词:
yet, just, before, recently, lately, ever, never,
so far(迄今为止), up till now(直到现在), up to now(直到现在), since(自从), for a long time(很长时间), in the past/in the last few years(在过去的几年里)...

so far(迄今为止), up till now(直到现在), up to now(直到现在), since(自从), for a long time(很长时间), in the past/in the last few years(在过去的几年里), these days(目前),
l 某些非延续性动词(动作开始变终止的动词), 在现在完成时中不 能与表示一段时间状语搭配:
例如:die, arrive, join, leave, go, refuse , fail, finish, buy, marry, divorce, awake, buy, borrow, lend, 这些动词并非不能用在现在完成时,而是不能接由for引导的时间状语.但是用在否定句中,非延续动词的现在完成时可以与表示一段时间的状语连用.
Jane has gone away for a month. (wrong)
Jane has been away for a month.(right)
His father has died for two years. (wrong)
His father has been dead for two years.(right)
has gone to (去了某地,指人还在那里), have been to (去过某地, 人已经不在那里了)。
一般过去时的用法
1)在确定的过去时间里所发生的动作或存在的状态。例如:时间状语有:yesterday, last week, an hour
ago, the other day, in 1982等。例如:
Where did you go just now? 刚才你上哪儿去了?
2)表示在过去一段时间内,经常性或习惯性的动作。例如:
When I was a child, I often played football in the street.
我是个孩子的时候,常在马路上踢足球。
Whenever the Browns went during their visit, they were given a
warm welcome.
那时,布朗一家无论什么时候去,都受到热烈欢迎。

It is time that sb. did sth. "时间已迟了" "早该……了" ,例如It is time you
went to bed. 你早该睡觉了。
would (had) rather sb. did sth. 表示'宁愿某人做某事'。例如:I'd rather you
came tomorrow.还是明天来吧。
4) wish, wonder, think, hope
等用过去时,作试探性的询问、请求、建议等,而一般过去时表示的动作或状态都已成为过去,现已不复存在
。例如:I thought
you might have some. 我以为你想要一些。
比较:Christine was an invalid all her life.(含义:她已不在人间。)
Christine has been an invalid all her life.(含义:她现在还活着)
