参考答案:
基本语法
现在完成时(III)
某些动词的现在完成时可表示从过去某一时间开始并一直持续到现在的动作或状态。
1. 可以和表示延续的时间状语连用,如“for+时间段”,“since+过去的时间点”,“since+一段时间+ago”,“since+一般过去时的句子”。
I have lived here for 10 years.
=I have lived here since 10 years ago.
我已经住在这里10年了。
He has worked at this factory since 2008.
自從2008年他就在这个工厂上班。
She has taught us since I came to this school.
自从我来到这所学校,她就一直教我们。
2. 表示持续动作或状态的动词多是延续性动词。
短暂性动词 (buy, die, join, finish等) 不能直接与表示一段时间的状语连用,需要转换为相应的延续性动词。
buy—have borrow—keep
put on—wear catch a cold—have a cold
get to know—knowget to sleep—sleep
begin/start—be ongo out—be out
open—be openclose—be closed
become—be die—be dead
finish/end—be overleave/go—be away
come/arrive/reach/get to—be (in)
fall asleep—be asleepmake friends—be friend
join—be in/be a member of
注意:非延续性动词在否定结构中可用现在完成时。
I haven’t seen him for three years.
我三年没有看见他了。
3. 现在完成时和一般过去时的区别
(1) 侧重点不同
现在完成时侧重于过去发生的某一动作对现在的影响;而一般过去时侧重于某一动作发生在过去某个时间或某段时间。即现在完成时强调的是现在的情况,而一般过去时强调动作发生在过去。
I have seen the film.
我看过这部电影。(我了解这部电影的内容。)
I saw the film three days ago.
三天前我看了这部电影。(只说明三天前看了这部电影,不涉及现在的情况。)
(2) 时间状语不同
现在完成时可以和already, yet, just, ever, never, before等副词连用,还可以和“for+时间段”、“since+过去的时间点”、“since+一段时间+ago”、“since+一般过去时的句子”等时间状语连用;而一般过去时则常与three weeks ago, just now, yesterday, last night等表示过去时间的状语连用。
She has lived here since two years ago.
她两年前就住在这里了。
She lived here two years ago.
两年前她住在这里。
