一般过去时与过去进行时的区别

1、。一般过去时（一） 定义 ：一般过去时是表示过去经常或偶然发生的动作或存在的状态的时态（二） . 标志词 ：ago, yesterday(moring/afternoon/evening),the day beforeyesterday,lastweek/year/night/month,in 1989 , just now, at the age of 5, one day, long longago（三） . 基本结构： 1be 动词（ was.were ）； 2 行为动词的过去式过去进行时概念 ：表示过去某段时间或某一时刻正在发生或进行的行为或动作。2. 标 志 词 ： atseveny

2、esterday,atthis(that)timeyestersday,justthen,then,when,while引导的从句中的主句3. 基本结构 ：was/were+doingWhen he came in, I was reading a newspaper.一般过去时和过去进行时的比较一般过去时和过去进行时虽然同是指过去发生的动作或存在的状态，但是他们还是有很大区别，一般过去时所指的过去时间却比较笼统， 而过去进行时所指的过去时间比较具体。试比较下面两组句子：A 组She joined the League three years ago.The story took place

3、in 1985.Aunt read me a story last night.B 组Mary was cooking at this time yesterday.She was doing some washing when I come in.I was sleeping when the thief broke into the house.A 组中的 three years ago、 in 1985 、 last night所指的过去时间均较为笼统，因此必须采用一般过去时。而B 组中的 at this time yesterday、 when I came in、 when thet

4、hief broke into the house所指的过去时间均较为具体，因此必须采用过去进行时。一般过去时和过去进行时，除了他们所指的时间有差别之外，还可以通过他们动作的性质来加以区别。 一般过去时表示在过去某个时间发生的动作或存在的状态，也表示过去经常或反复发生的动作。它强调的是动作的“发生”或状态的“存在”。过去进行时表示在过去某一时刻或在过去某一段时间内正在进行的动作。它强调的是动作的“正在进行”。试比较下面两组句子：C组Did he watch TV last night?I got up at five yesterday.I studied in that class last

5、 year.D组 Mum was doing some washing yesterday evening.We were cleaning the classroom this time yesterday.The teacher was talking to some parents when I saw her.C组中的“看电视” 、“起床”、“学习”都是属于过去某一时候动作的“发生”或状态的“存在”，所以必须采用一般过去时。而D 组中的“在洗（衣服） ”、“在打扫（教室） ”、“正在谈话”都是指过去某一时刻动作“正在进行”，所以必须采用过去进行时。有时，同是发生于过去某一个时候的某一个

6、动作，既可采用一般过去时，也可采用过去进行时，但其语意却不尽相同，而且还有着很大的区别。试比较下列几对句子：Jack wrote a letter to his parents last night.杰克昨晚给他的父母写了封信。（信写完了）Jack was writing a letter to his parents last night.精选资料，欢迎下载。杰克昨晚一直在给他的父母写信。（信不一定写完）They planted trees last Sunday.他们上星期天植树。 （树植完）They were planting trees last Sunday.他们上星期天一直在植树。

7、（树不一植完）注意： 一般过去时的谓语动词，即可用延续性动词，也可用非延续性动词，而过去进行时的谓语动词只能用延续性动词。如A 组句型中的， “join ”、“ take place ” 为非延续性动词，“ read ”为延续性动词，B 组句型中的“cook ”、“ do”与“ sleep ”均为延续性动词。练习题1.
