動詞時態

動詞時態

動詞時態,英語中的一種時態。不同時間和方式發生的動作或狀態要用謂語動詞的不同形式來表示,這種表示動作或狀態發生時間和方式的動詞形式即稱作動詞時態。動詞時態一般分為一般現在時、一般過去時、一般將來時、現在進行時、過去進行時、將來進行時等。

基本介紹

動詞,就是用來形容或表示各類動作的辭彙。基本上每個完整的子句都有一個動詞,要表示第二個動作時可使用不定詞、動名詞、對等連線詞、從屬連線詞或增加子句等方法連結。而在英語中根據時間和動作的種類,動詞又分為了多種時態。目前而言,上班族、白領由於為了提高學習效率,達到最好的學習效果,選擇了英語教練老師。

其實是英語動詞的時和體。時有現在、過去、將來和過去將來;體有一般、完成、進行和完成進行。而態有2種,即主動和被動。以上只是主動,加上被動就更多了。

六種時態

時態由“時”和“態”構成。“時”主要有4個主要部分,即現在、過去、將來和過去將來;“態”也有4種,即一般、進行、完成和完成進行。將4個“時”和4個“態”組合在一起,就是時態的種類,共16種。在初高中階段,一般不需要掌握表格右下角加注的六種時態。

典型例題

---- It's 69568442.

A. didn'tB. couldn'tC. don'tD. can't

答案(A):本句雖沒有明確的時間狀語,但從語意上看出,在聽的時候沒有聽懂這個動作發生在過去,因此套用過去時

will 在陳述句中用於各人稱,在爭求意見時常用於第二人稱。

I'm leaving tomorrow:我明天就要走了

Are you staying here till next week:你要在這兒呆到下星期

現在完成時

現在完成時用來表示之前已發生或完成的動作或狀態,其結果的確和現在有聯繫。動作或狀態發生在過去但它的影響現在還存在;也可表示持續到現在的動作或狀態。其構成:have (has) +過去分詞。

比較過去時與現在完成時

1)過去時表示過去某時發生的動作或單純敘述過去的事情,強調動作;現在完成時為過去發生的,強調過去的事情對現在的影響,強調的是影響。

2)過去時常與具體的時間狀語連用,而現在完成時通常與模糊的時間狀語連用,或無時間狀語。

一般過去時的時間狀語:

yesterday,last week,…ago,in1980,in October,just now,具體的時間狀語

共同的時間狀語:

this morning,tonight,this April,now,once,before,already,recently,lately

現在完成時的時間狀語

for,since,so far,ever,never,just,yet,till / until,up to now,in past years,always,

不確定的時間狀語

3)現在完成時可表示持續到現在的動作或狀態,動詞一般是延續性的,如live,teach,learn,work,study,know.

過去時常用的非持續性動詞有come,go,leave,start,die,finish,become,get married等。

舉例:

I saw this film yesterday:我昨天看了這部電影

(強調看的動作發生過了。)

I have seen this film:我已經看過這部電影

(強調對現在的影響,電影的內容已經知道了。)

Why did you get up so early

(強調起床的動作已發生過了。)

Who hasn't handed in his paper

(強調有卷子,可能為不公平競爭。)

She has returned from Paris:她已從巴黎回來了。

She returned yesterday:她是昨天回來了。

He has been in the League for three years:他在團中已經三年

(在團內的狀態可延續)

He has been a League member for three years:他連續三年被一個團內的成員

(是團員的狀態可持續)

He joined the League three years ago:他三年前入團

( 三年前入團,joined為短暫行為。)

I have finished my homework now.

---Will somebody go and get Dr. White

---He's already been sent for.

句子中如有過去時的時間副詞(如 yes terday,last,week,in 1960)時,不能使用現在完成時,要用過去時。

(錯)Tom has written a letter to his parents last night.

(對)Tom wrote a letter to his parents last night.

用於現在完成時的句型

1)It is the first / second time…. that…結構中的從句部分,用現在完成時。

It is the first time that I have visited the city.

It was the third time that the boy had been late.

2)This is the… that…結構,that 從句要用現在完成時.

This is the best film that I've (ever) seen.

這是我看過的最好的電影。

This is the first time (that) I've heard him sing.這是我第一次聽他唱歌。

典型例題

(1) ---Do you know our town at all?

---No,this is the first time I ___ here.

A. wasB. have beenC. cameD. am coming

答案B. This is the first time 後面所加從句應為現在完成時,故選B。

(2) ---Have you ____ been to our town before

---No,it's the first time I ___ here.

A. even,comeB. even,have comeC. ever,comeD. ever,have come

答案D. ever意為曾經或無論何時,反意詞為never,此兩詞常用於完成時。This is the largest fish I have ever seen. It is / was the first time +that-clause 的句型中,從句要用完成時。

注意:非延續性動詞的否定形式可以與表示延續時間的狀語連用。即動作不發生的狀態是可以持續的。

(錯)I have received his letter for a month.

(對)I haven't received his letter for almost a month.

比較since和for

Since 用來說明動作起始時間,for用來說明動作延續時間長度。

I have lived here for more than twenty years:我已經在這兒住了二十多年了

I have lived here since I was born:我從出生就住在這裡

My aunt has worked in a clinic since 1949:我的阿姨自1949以來在診所工作

Some new oilfields have been opened up since 1976:一些新的油田自1976年已開放

I have known Xiao Li since she was a little girl:我從小李是個小女孩時就認識她

My brother has been in the Youth League for two years:我的哥哥入團已經兩年了

I have not heard from my uncle for a long time:我已經很長時間沒有收到我叔叔的來信了

注意:並非有for 作為時間狀語的句子都用現在完成時。

I worked here for more than twenty years.

(我現在已不在這裡工作。)

I have worked here for many years.

(現在我仍在這裡工作。)

小竅門:當現在完成時+一段時間,這一結構中,我們用下面的公式轉化,很容易就能排除非延續性動詞在完成時中的誤使。

1)(對) Tom has studied Russian for three years.

= Tom began to study Russian thre e years ago,and is still studying it now.

2)(錯) Harry has got married for six years.

= Harry began to get married six years ago,and is still getting married now.

顯然,第二句不對,它應改為 Harry got married six years ago.或 Harry has been married for six years.

since的四種用法

1) since +過去一個時間點(如具體的年、月、日期、鐘點、1980,last month,half past six)。

I have been here since 1989

2) since +一段時間+ ago

I have been here since five months ago

3) since +從句

Great changes have taken place since you left

Considerable time has elapsed since we have been here

4) It is +一段時間+ since從句

It is two years since I became a postgraduate student.

延續動詞與瞬間動詞

1) 用於完成時的區別

延續動詞表示經驗、經歷; 瞬間動詞表示行為的結 果,不能與表示段的時間狀語連用。

He has completed the work.他已完成了那項工作。(表結果)

I've known him since then.我從那時起就認識他了。(表經歷)

2)用於till / until從句的差異

延續動詞用於肯定句,表示"做……直到……" 瞬間動詞用於否定句,表示"到……,才……"

He didn't come back until ten o'clock.

他到10 點才回來。

He slept till ten o'clock.

他一直睡到10點。

典型例題

1. You don't need to describe her. I ___ her several times.

A. had metB. have metC. metD. meet

答案B. 首先本題後句強調對現在的影響,我知道她的模樣,你不用描述。再次,several times告知為反覆發生的動作,因此用現在完成時。

2.---I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

---Oh,not at all. I ___ here only a few minutes.

A. have beenB. had beenC. wasD. will be

答案A. 等待的動作由過去開始,持續到現在,套用現在完成時。

過去完成時

1) 概念:表示過去的過去

----|-------|-----|---->其構成是had +過去分詞構成。

那時以前那時現在

2) 用法

a.在told,said,knew,heard,thought等動詞後的賓語從句。

She said (that) she had ever been to Paris.

她說她曾去過巴黎

b. 狀語從句

在過去不同時間發生的兩個動作中,發生在先,用過去完成時;發生在後,用一般過去時。

當警察趕到時,小偷已經跑了

c. 表示意向的動詞,如hope,wish,expect,think,intend,mean,suppose等,用過去完成時表示"原本…,未能…"

典型例題

A. had written,leftB,were writing,has leftC. had written,had leftD. were writing,had left

答案D. "把書忘在辦公室"發生在"去取書"這一過去的動作之前,因此"忘了書"這一動作發生在過去的過去,用過去完成時。句中when表示的是時間的一點,表示在"同學們正忙於……"這一背景下,when所引導的動作發生。因此

前一句套用過去進行時。

注意:had no … when還沒等…… 就……

had no sooner… than剛…… 就……

He had no sooner bought the car than he sold it.

1)兩個動作如按順序發生,又不強調先後,或用then,and,but 等連詞時,多用一般過去時。
