英文最基本的五个时态学习资料

1、英文最基本的五个时态英文最基本的五个时态最近看了几篇外语联盟的朋友发的帖子，觉得非常不错，受益匪浅。但是感觉 外语联盟里英语好的人虽然很多，像我这样英语挺差的人应该也是不少。特在 此把一些最基本最常用的英语时态帖出来，希望跟我一样在英语里挣扎的战友 们早日攻克英语这道难关。让英语真正成为为我们服务的一项技能，而不是折 磨我们的噩梦。（在此特别鸣谢张道真前辈，主要内容和例句基本上都出自张真 人的实用英语 语法，希望他不要告我侵权.）英文最基本的五个时态英文最常用的时态有五个:1 一般现在时；2现在进行时；3 一般过去时；4 一般将来时；5现在完成时。一、一般现在时：用动词原型表示，但单数第三人称

2、后要加-s,在词尾加-s时要注意：1. 一般情况：加-s 例：reads, writes, says2. 以 s, x, ch, sh 收尾的词力口 -es 例: teaches, washes, guesses3. 以辅音字母+y结尾的词变y为i再加-es例：trytries, carrycarries。 这个时态的疑问句一般以句首加助动词do, does构成。句中动词要用原型动词be提前：do you know it ?are you stude nts?does she have a pen1. 一般现在时表示经常性或习惯性的动作：we always care for each othe

3、r and help each othe。they cycle to work every day。2. 现在的特征或状态：he loves sports。do you si ng ? a little。i major in english。3. 遍真理：light travels faster tha n sound。two and four makes six。the moon moves round the earth。有些表示状态和感觉的动词常常可用于一般现在时：be, love, like , hate,want, hope, need, prefer, wish , know ,

4、understand, remember, believe, recognize, guess suppose, mean, belong, think （以为），feel, envy, doubt, remain, consist, contain, seem, look （看起来），see, fit, suit, owe, own, hear, find , suggest propose, allow , show （说明），prove, mind （在意），have （有），sound （听起 来），taste （尝起来）， matter, require, possess desir

5、e等等。i feel a sharp pain in my chest。the soup contains too much salt。you see what i mean?the coat fits you very well。how do you find the book ?有些表示动作的动词间或可用于这一时态，表示现刻的动作，由于动作持续时间 机短，用于进行时不自然：i send you my best wishes。i salute your courage 0now i extend my heartfelt thanks to you。在口语中这个时态用来表示一个按规定、计划或

6、安排发生的情况（这是都有一个 表示未来时间的状语）：when do the train leave （stop at jinan）?the pla ne take off at 11 am。tomorrow is saturday。is there a firm on tonight ?但这只限少数动词，如 begin, come, go, leave, sail, start, arrive, return, dine, end, stop, depart, open, close, be等。另外，在时间或条件从句中，将来动作 或状态多用这一时态表示：tell her about that

7、whe n she come。turn off the light before you leave。we II start as soon as you are ready在口语中，这个时态间或可以用来表示一个已经发生的动作（这个动作发生的时 间在说话人脑中处于很不重要的地位）：they say xiao wu is back。is that true ?xiao yu tells me you re going abroadoh, i forget where he lives。yes, you answer quite well。此外一般现在时还多用于报刊、电影、电视解说等其他几种情况。

8、二、现在进行时现在进行时用助动词 be的人称形式加现在分词构成，它的肯定、否定、疑问形 式如下：i am working。i am not working。am i working ?现在进行时主要表示现在或现在这一阶段正在进行的动作。where are they hav ing the basket-ball match?they are putting up the scaffolding。he s showing a foreign guest round the city在不少情况下，表示正在进行的动作的汉语句子，并没有 “正在 ”这样的字，在译 为英语时却必须用进行时态：how ar

9、e you getting on with the work ？ the work is going fairly smoothly 。 you are making rapid progress。 it is blowing hard 。who are you waiting for ？whenever i see he, she is working in the garden。我每次看至U她时，她总是在花园 里干活。在一般现在时所列的表示状态和感觉的动词，一般不能用于进行时态，因为他们 不能表示正在进行的动作。但如果词义转变，能表示一个正在进行的动作，就能够用 于进行时态，试比较下面的句

10、子：do you see anyone over there? 你看至U那里有什么人吗？are you see ing some one off?你在给谁送行吗？i hear some one singing。我听见有人唱歌。 they are hearing an english talk？他们在听一个英语报告。what do you think of it ？你觉得这怎么样？what are you thinking about ?你在想什么？ 另外，表示无法持续动作的动词，一般不宜用于进行时态，但有些可以用于这个 时态表示重复、即将等：he is jump ing up and dow

11、n。她一上一下地跳着。the train is arriving 。火车就要进站了。the old man is dying 。老头病危了。 现在进行时有时可用来表示一个在最近按计划或安安排要进行的动作（这是多有 一个表示未来时间的状语）：we are leaving on friday。are you going anywhere tomorrow？a foreign guest is giving a lecture in english this afternoon 。xiao hong！coming。who is interpreting for you ？we are having

12、a holiday next monday。 但这仅限于少量动词，如go， come， leave， start， arrive， lunch， return， dine，work， sleep, stay， play，do, have，wear等。另外，“ be going不定式”这个结构经常用来表示即将发生的事或打算（准备）做 的事：i am afraid it is going to rain 。 it is going to be rather cold tomorrow 。 she is not going to speak at the meeting。在这个结构中过去有许多人不赞

13、成用 go 和 come 这两个动词,感至很别扭,主张 不说 are you going to go any where tomorrow ?而说 are you going any where tomorrow ？ 不 说is she goi ng to come ?而说is she comi ng?但现在在这种结构中用两个动词的人越来 越多,这种用法基本上被大家接受了。此外，在时间和条件状语从句中，间或也可用现在进行时表示将来的情况或一般 情况：do not mention this when you are talking with him 。remember that when you

14、 are taking a rest， some else is always working。if she is still sleeping ， do not wake her up。 现在进行时有时用来代替一般现在时，表示一个经常性动作或状态，这是或是为 了表示一种感情（a）如赞叹、厌烦等，或是为了强调情况的暂时性（b）。a. how are you feeling today? （比 how do you feel today? 更显亲切）xiao hua is doing fine work at school。（比 xiao hua does fine work at school

15、。更富 赞美）he is always thinking of his work 。表赞许he is constantly leaving his thing about。她老是乱扔东西。（表不满）he is always boast ing。他老爱说大话。（表厌烦）b. he is sleeping in the next room now。他现在现在是在隔壁房间睡了（不再原来 房间睡了）。the professor is typing his own letters while his secretary is ill 。where is he working ?他现在在那里工作？（可能刚

17、进行时：here comes the bus （ =the bus is comin g.）there goes the bell. （=the bell is ringing.）在某些情况下两种情况都可以用，没有多少差别：i wonder （am wondering） how i should answer then.does your leg hurt? （is your leg hurting?）it itches （is itching） terribly.my back aches （is aching）.i write （am writing ） to inform you.未完待

19、usy tonight? the agreement will come into force next spring. we wont （shatn） befree tonight. 有时表示将来的时间状语，有时没有时间状语，这时要从意思上判断是否指未来 的动作或情况：i will think it over. who will take the chair? will she come? they won t object it. 在以 i 或 we 作主语的问句中，一般用 shall ，这时或是征求对方的意见（ a） ,或 是询问一个情况（ b）:a. shall i make a fa

24、ren to the zoo (on sunday ). 在单纯表示将来情况，特别是谈一连串的事情或在带时间或条件状语从句的句子 中，谓语多用将来时：next term i will try to d o better. i ll speak more english and do more re-aldoiundg.hell come to see you when he has time.hell tell you if you ask him. 在表示打算或准备时，如不提时间、条件等，多用 be going to 这个结构，用一般 将来时时很少的，特别是在口语中：he is going

25、to buy a dictionary.( 很少说 he will buy a dictionary.) 在谈即将发生的情况时，用 be going to 这个结构也多一些。在表示按计划安排要 做得事时，用 be to 的时候也不少。另外还有将来进行时等时态也可表示将来的动作。注： be about to 可表示即将作某事 we are about to leave. he is about to retire.一般将来时有时还可用来表示一种倾向或习惯性动作： a drowning man will catch at a straw.crops will die without water.

31、es.mans hairs have grown white in a single might.he says that he has seen a meteor at some time. 这个时态的基本特点是它和现在有密切的联系，或是讲迄今为止这一段时间的情 况，或是讲一个影响现状的动作，这样它不是从时间上就是从后果上和现在联系起 来。根据这个特点我们可以判断什么时候用一般过去时，什么时候用现在完成时：1. 当有一个表示过去某时的状语(包括when )时，不能用现在完成时：i saw her a minute ago.just now xiao lin came to see you.w

32、hen did you get to know it?2. 当有一个表示到现在为止这段时间的状语时，多用现在完成时：up till now we have planted over 24,000 fruit trees.we haven t had any physical training classes this week.he has learned a good deal since he came here.3在用already, yet, just, as yet, ever, never这类副词作状语时，常可用现在完成 时：this is the second game. the

35、e i fixed it.it seems a long time since i was here.i m gettingiterested in chi na si nee you came here .间或用过去时，特别时在口语 中。i lost ten pounds since i started swimming.在since引起的状语从句中，通常用一般过去时。但间或可用现在完成时：i haven t seen him since i have been back.since i have known her, she has been fond of sports.有时同样一句汉语

36、，由于使用场合不用，译成英语时可能需要不同时态：has xiao yang come? did xiao yang come?how many people have gone to the factory? how many people went to the factory?we haven t invited him. we didn t invite him. 有时同样一个动作，也随着说话的意图不同而用不同时态表示： has he go ne to tow n? how did he go there?后一句谈动作本身，与现在无联系。have you had your lunch?

37、where did you have it？ 你吃中午饭了吗？在那吃的？ has she left? why did she leave so early?某些动词的现在完成时刻表示一直持续到现在的状态：how have you been （recently）? the conference has lasted five days. we ve known each other since we were children.特别是动词be,是常常这样用的：he s been back for three days.不能用 has come back） she has been a teacher for ten years.不能说 has become） he has been in college for a year. （不能说 has entered） 由于come, become, enter和 get up等
