时态(Tense)是表示行为、动作和状态在各种时间条件下的动词形式。因此,当我们说时态结构的时候,指的是相应时态下的动词形式。
英语时态分为16种:一般现在、一般过去、一般将来、过去将来时,以及这四者的进行时、完成时和完成进行时。
一. 一般现在时
用法:
A) 表示现在发生的动作、情况、状态和特征。B) 习惯用语。C) 经常性、习惯性动作。
D) 客观事实和普遍真理。尤其要注意,如果前后文不是一般现在时,则无法保持 主句、从句时态一致。
E) 表示一个按规定、计划或安排要发生的动作,(仅限于某些表示“来、去、动 、停、开始、结束、继续”等的动词 )可以与表示未来时间的状语搭配使用 。常见的用法是:飞机、火车、轮船、汽车等定期定点运行的交通方式。
例:The next train leaves at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
(下一趟火车今天下午3点开车。)
How often does this shuttle bus run? (这班车多久一趟?)
F) 在时间和条件状语从句里经常用一般现在(有时也用现在完成时)表示将来事情
时间状语:
always usually often sometimes every week (day year month…) once a week on Sundays etc.
基本结构:①be动词;②行为动词
否定形式:①am/is/are not;②此时态的谓语动词若为行为动词,则在其前加don't 如主语为第三人称单数,则用doesn't,同时还原行为动词。
一般疑问句:①把be动词放于句首;②用助动词do提问,如主语为第三人称单数,则用does,同时,还原行为动词。
二. 一般过去时
用法:
A) 表示过去某个时间发生的动作或情况。
B) 表示过去习惯性动作。特别是由would/ used to do表达的句型,本身表示的 就是过去时。
He used to visit his mother once a week.(他以前总是每周看望一次他的母亲。)
时间状语:ago yesterday the day before yesterday last week(year night month…) in 1989 just now at the age of 5 one day long long ago once upon a time etc.
基本结构:①be动词;②行为动词
否定形式:①was/were not;②在行为动词前加didn't,同时还原行为动词。
一般疑问句:①was或were放于句首;②用助动词do的过去式did提问,同时还原行为动词。
三. 现在进行时(be doing)
概念:表示现阶段或说话时正在进行的动作及行为。
时间状语:now at this time these days etc.
基本结构:am/is/are doing
否定形式:am/is/are not doing.
一般疑问句:把be动词放于句首。
四、过去进行时:
用法:
A) 表示在过去一个比较具体的时间正在发生的动作。
例:Mary was listening to light music 10 minutes ago.(10分钟前,玛丽正在听轻音乐。)
B) 如果when while这样的时间状语引导词所引导的主从句之一是一般过去时,则另一个句子常用过去进行时。
例:I was washing my hair when you knocked at the front door.(你敲前门时我正在洗头发。)
时间状语:at this time yesterday at that time或以when引导的谓语动词是一般过去时的时间状语等。
基本结构:was/were doing
否定形式:was/were not doing.
一般疑问句:把was或were放于句首。
五、现在完成时(have done)
用法:
A) 表示动作到现在为止已经完成或刚刚完成。
B) 表示从过去某时刻开始,持续到现在的动作或情况,并且有可能会继续延续下去。此时经常用延续性动词。时间状语常用since加一个过去的时间点,或for加一段时间,或by加一个现在时间。
注意事项
现在完成时是联系过去和现在的纽带。现在完成时和过去时的区别在于:现在完成时强调动作的动态,或受动态的影响,是动态的结果,对现在有影响;过去时只表示过去的某个具体时间里发生的动作,与现在没有联系。
时间状语:recently lately since…for… in the past few years etc.
基本结构:have/has done
否定形式:have/has not d one.
一般疑问句:have或has。
六. 过去完成时(had done)
概念:以过去某个时间为标准,在此以前发生的动作或行为,或在过去某动作之前完成的行为,即“过去的过去”。
时间状语:before by the end of last year(term month…) etc.
基本结构:had done.
否定形式:had not done.
一般疑问句:had放于句首
七、一般将来时:
概念:表示将要发生的动作或存在的状态及打算、计划或准备做某事。
时间状语:tomorrow next day(week month year…) soon in a few minutes by… the day after tomorrow etc.
基本结构:①am/is/are/going to do;②will/shall do.
③、be to do ④ be about to ⑤、一般现在时表将来 ⑥、现在进行时表将来。
否定形式:①was/were not; ②在行为动词前加didn't,同时还原行为动词。
一般疑问句:①be放于句首;②will/shall提到句首。
分别用法:
A) 基本结构是will / shall do。
例:We shall send her a glass hand-made craft as her birthday gift.
B) 有些动词,如:arrive be close come do done go have leave open play return sleep start stay等,用于现在进行时,并且通常与一个表示将来时间的时间状语连用,可以表示将来时。
例:My mother is coming to visit me next week and is staying here until May.(我妈妈下周将来看我,并会呆到5月。)
C) 表示“打算去……,要……”时,可用be going to do。
例:This is just what I am going to say.(这正是我想说的。)
D) 表示“即将、正要”时,可用be about to do。强调近期内或马上要做的事。
例:Don't worry I am about to make a close examination on you.
E) "be to do" 表示“按计划、安排即将发生某事或打算做某事”。
F) 同样可以表示“正要、将要”的意思的句型是be on the point of doing。
例:The coach is on the point of giving up the game because our team has been scored 7 points. 例:2005年6月大学四级第65题
I was _______ the point of telephoning him when his letter arrived.
A) in B) to C) at D) on
答案是D)。on the point of doing 是固定词组,意思是“正要、打算”。全句的意思是:“当他的信到的时候我正要打电话给他。”
注意事项:
在以if when as long as as soon as after before in case until unless等连词以及具有连词作用的副词(immediately the moment directly)等引导的状语从句,一般用现在时代替将来时。强调延续性或动态时,可用完成时。
例:I hope his health will have improved by the time you come back next year.(我希望到明年你回来的时候,他的身体已经好多了。)
八、过去将来时:
概念:立足于过去某一时刻,从过去看将来,常用于宾语从句中。
时间状语:the next day(morning year…) the following month(week…) etc.
基本结构:①was/were/going to do;②would/should do.
否定形式:①was/were/not going to do;②would/should not do.
一般疑问句:①was或were放于句首;②would/should提到句首。
例 I said on Thursday I should see my friend the next day.(我星期四说我将于第二天拜访我的朋友。)
九 现在完成进行时(have been doing)
用法:表示某一动作开始于过去某一时间,延续或重复地出现至今,或将继续延续至将来。
例:We have been working on this project for over a month now.(到目前为止,我们一直在处理那个项目,已经花了一个多月时间了。)
注意事项:与现在完成时相比,现在完成进行时更强调:在从过去到现在的时间里,动作或状态一直持续或一直反复出现。
十、 将来完成时(will have done)
用法:表示从将来的某一时间开始、延续到另一个将来时间的动作或状态,或是发生在某个将来时间,但对其后的另一个将来时间有影响的动作或状态。就好象把现在完成时平移到时间轴的将来时时段一样。其用法从和过去及现在有关,变成了和将来及将来的将来有关。
例 The conference __________ a full week by the time it ends.
A) must have lasted B) will have lasted C) would last D) has lasted
以下六种时态考察较少
十一. 将来进行时(will be doing)
用法:强调在将来的某个具体时间正在发生的动作或事情。
例:Don't worry you won't miss her. She will be wearing a red T-shirt and a white skirt at that time.(别担心,你不会认不出她的。她到时会穿一件红色的T恤衫和一条白色的短裙。)
注意事项:由于本时态是由将来时和进行时融合在一起的,所以关于本时态的注意事项,可参考"一般将来时"和"现在进行时"的有关注意事项。
十二、将来完成进行时:shall have been doing ,will have been doing
例:By the end of next month the project will have been being worked for 3 years. (到下个月底为止,这项工程就已经不停地进行了3年了。)(被动语态)
十三、过去完成进行时:had been doing
例:The old clock had been being taken apart of and fixed up again for several times by my 10-year old son before I came back home.(我回到家之前,我10岁大的儿子已经把这个旧钟表拆卸并重新组装了好几回了。)(此处强调“拆卸”和“组装”这两个过去的过去的动作一直在反复进行。)(被动语态)
十四、过去将来进行时:should be doing would be doing
例:The government promised that a new highway would be being built next July.(政府承诺说第二年7月将有一条新的高速公路正在修建。)(此句的时间状语是具体的将来时间,所以最好用将来进行时。)(此句为被动语态)
十五、 过去将来完成时:should have done would have done
例:I believed by the end of that year an advanced version of that software would have been developed but I was wrong.(我坚信到那年年底为止,那个软件的新版本将被开发出来。但是我错了。)(此句为被动语态)
十六、 过去将来完成进行时:should have been doing would have been doing
