第一句用一般现在时,用于操作演示或指导说明的示范性动作,表示言行的瞬间动作.第二句中的now是进行时
的标志,表示正在进行的动作的客观状况,所以后句用一般现在时.

A. didn't B. couldn't C. don't D. can't
答案A. 本句虽没有明确的时间状语,但从语意上看出,在听的时候没有听懂这个动作发生在过去,因此应用过
去时.

如:
Which paragraph shall I read first? 我先读哪一段呢?

2) be going to +不定式,表示将来.

11.9 现在完成时
现在完成时用来表示之前已发生或完成的动作或状态,其结果的影响现在还存在;也可表示持续到现在的动作
或状态.其构成:have
(has) +过去分词.
11.10 比较一般过去时与现在完成时
1)一般过去时表示过去某时发生的动作或单纯叙述过去的事情,强调动作;现在完成时为过去发生的,强调过
去的事情对现在的影响,强调的是影响.
2)一般过去时常与具体的时间状语连用,而现在完成时通常与模糊的时间状语连用,或无时间状语.
一般过去时的时间状语:yesterday, last week,…ago, in1980, in October, just
now等,皆为具体的时间状语.
现在完成时的时间状语:for, since, so far, ever, never, just, yet,
till/until, up to now, in past years, always等,皆不确定的时间状语.
共同的时间状语:this morning, tonight, this April, now, already,
recently, lately 等.
3)现在完成时可表示持续到现在的动作或状态,动词一般是延续性的,如live, teach, learn, work,
study, know..
一般过去时常用的非持续性动词有come, go, leave, start, die, finish, become,
get married等.例如:
I saw this film yesterday. (强调看的动作发生过了)
I have seen this film. (强调对现在的影响,电影的内容已经知道了)
Why did you get up so early? (强调起床的动作已发生过了)
Who hasn't handed in his paper? (强调有卷子未交,疑为不公平竞争)
He has been in the League for three years. (在团内的状态可延续)
He has been a League member for three years. (是团员的状态可持续)
句子中如有过去时的时间副词(如yesterday, last, week, in
1960)时,不能使用现在完成时,要用过去时.
(错)Tom has written a letter to his parents last night.
(对)Tom wrote a letter to his parents last night.
11.11 用于现在完成时的句型
1)It is the first / second time. that…结构中的从句部分,用现在完成时.例如:
It is the first time that I have visited the city.
这是我第一次访问这城市.
This is the first time (that) I've heard him sing. 这是我第一次听他唱歌.
注意:It was the third time that the boy had been late.
2)This is +形容词最高级+that…结构,that 从句要用现在完成时.例如:
This is the best film that I've (ever) seen. 这是我看过的最好的电影.
典型例题
(1) ---Do you know our town at all?
---No, this is the first time I ___ here.
A. was B. have been C. came D. am coming
答案B. This is the first time 后面所加从句应为现在完成时,故选B.
(2) ---Have you ____ been to our town before?
---No, it's the first time I ___ here.
A. even, come B. even, have come C. ever, come D. ever, have
come
答案D. ever意为曾经或无论何时,反意词为never,此两词常用于完成时.
注意:非延续性动词的否定形式可以与表示延续时间的状语连用.即动作不发生的状态是可以持续的.
(错)I have received his letter for a month.
(对)I haven't received his letter for almost a month.
11.12 比较since和for
Since 用来说明动作起始时间,for用来说明动作延续时间长度.例如:
I have lived here for more than twenty years.我住在这儿二十多年了.
I have lived here since I was born. 我从出生起就住在这儿了.
注意:并非有for 作为时间状语的句子都用现在完成时.
I worked here for more than twenty years. (我现在已不在这里工作.)
I have worked here for many years.(现在我仍在这里工作.)
注意:用句型转换的方法,很容易排除非延续动词在有for/since结构的完成时中的误用.
1)(对) Tom has studied Russian for three years. = Tom began to
study Russian three years ago, and is still studying it now.
2)(错) Harry has got married for six years. = Harry began to
get married six years ago, and is still getting married now.
显然,第二句不对,它应改为 Harry got married six years ago. 或 Harry has
been married for six years.
11.13 since的四种用法
1) since +过去一个时间点(如具体的年、月、日期、钟点、1980, last month, half past
six).例如:
I have been here since 1989. 1989起,我一直在这儿.
2) since +一段时间+ ago.例如:
I have been here since five months ago. 我在这儿,已经有五个月了.
3) since +从句.例如:
Great changes have taken place since you left. 你走后,变化可大了.
Great changes have taken place since we were here. 我们走后,变化可大了.
4) It is +一段时间+ since从句.例如:
It is two years since I became a postgraduate student.
我考上研究生有两年了.
11.14 延续动词与瞬间动词
1) 用于完成时的区别
延续动词表示经验、经历; 瞬间动词表示行为的结果,不能与表示段的时间状语连用.例如:
He has completed the work. 他已完成了那项工作. (表结果)
I've known him since then. 我从那时起就认识他了.(表经历)
2) 用于till / until从句的差异
延续动词用于肯定句,表示"做……直到……" 瞬间动词用于否定句,表示"到……,才……".例如:
He didn't come back until ten o'clock. 他到10 点才回来.
He slept until ten o'clock. 他一直睡到10点.
典型例题
1. You don't need to describe her. I ___ her several times.
A. had met B. have met C. met D. meet
答案B. 首先本题后句强调对现在的影响,我知道她的模样,你不用描述.再次,several
times告知为反复发生的动作,因此用现在完成时.
2. ---I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
---Oh, not at all. I ___ here only a few minutes.
A. have been B. had been C. was D. will be
答案A. 等待的动作由过去开始,持续到现在,应用现在完成时.
11.15 过去完成时
1) 概念:表示过去的过去
----|----------|--------|----> 其构成是had +过去分词构成.
那时以前 那时 现在
2) 用法
a. 在told, said, knew, heard, thought等动词后的宾语从句.例如:
She said (that)she had never been to Paris. 她告诉我她曾去过巴黎.
b. 状语从句
在过去不同时间发生的两个动作中,发生在先,用过去完成时;发生在后,用一般过去时.例如:
When the police arrived, the thieves had run away.
警察到达时,小偷们早就跑了.
c. 表示意向的动词,如hope, wish, expect, think, intend, mean,
suppose等,用过去完成时表示"原本…,未能…".例如:
We had hoped that you would come, but you didn't.
那时我们希望你能来,但是你没有来.
3) 过去完成时的时间状语before, by, until , when, after, once, as soon
as.例如:
He said that he had learned some English before. 他说过他以前学过一些英语.
By the time he was twelve, Edison had began to make a living
by himself. 到了十二岁那年,爱迪生开始自己谋生.

arrived at the party.

典型例题
The students ___ busily when Miss Brown went to get a book she
___ in the office.
A. had written, left B,were writing, has left C. had written,
had left D. were writing, had left
答案D.
"把书忘在办公室"发生在"去取书"这一过去的动作之前,因此"忘了书"这一动作发生在过去的过去,用过去完
成时.句中when表示的是时间的一点,表示在"同学们正忙于……"这一背景下,when所引导的动作发生.因此
前一句应用过去进行时.
注意: had hardly… when 还没等…… 就…….例如:
I had hardly opened the door when I he hit me. 我刚打开门,他就打了我.
had no sooner…than 刚…… 就…….例如:
He had no sooner bought the car than he sold it.
他刚买了这辆车,转眼又卖了.
11.16 用一般过去时代替过去完成时
1) 两个动作如按顺序发生,又不强调先后,或用then,and,but 等连词时,多用一般过去时.例如:

My aunt gave me a hat and I lost it. 姑妈给了我一顶帽子,我把它丢了.
2 ) 两个动作相继发生,可用一般过去时;如第一个动作需要若干时间完成,用过去完成时.例如:
When I heard the news, I was very excited.
3) 叙述历史事实,可不用过去完成时,而只用一般过去时.例如:
Our teacher told us that Columbus discovered America in 1492.

语法专项—代词
代词是代替名词的词。在英语中代词分为八类:人称代词、物主代词、反身代词、指示代词、不定代词、疑问代词、连接代词和关系代词。
在本讲中我们着重小结一下人称代词、物主代词及指示代词的用法。
(一)人称代词
人称代词有人称、数和格的变化。

1.主格的用法
(1)作主语
e.g. I am a worker. You are a student. 我是工人。你是学生。

※①人称代词it除可代替事物之外,还可指时间、天气、距离等:
e.g. It's ten o'clock. 现在十点了。

It's going to rain soon. 天快下雨了。
It's three miles to the school. 到学校有三英里远。

e.g. You, he and I are all students. 我、你和他都是学生。
The teacher asked you, him and me to go to his office.
老师叫我、你还有他去一趟他的办公室。

语法专项——名词与冠词的用法
同步教学
主讲人:黄冈中学高级教师 瞿丽娅
在本讲中我们系统地复习一下名词与冠词的用法。
一、名词的定义及分类
(一)名词的意义:表示人、事物或抽象概念的词。
e.g. student, desk, Wuhan
(二)名词的种类:名词分为专有名词和普通名词两大类。
1.专有名词:具体人、事物、地点或机构的专有名称。
2.普通名词:表示某一类人或某事物的名称。普通名词又可细分为:
(1)个体名词:

e.g. doctor, tree
(2)集体名词:表示一群人或一些事物的总称。
e.g. class, family, people
(3)物质名词:表示无法分为个体的物质。
e.g. rice, water, paper
(4)抽象名词:表示抽象概念的词。
e.g. health, friendship.
二、名词的数
(一)可数名词(个体名词和集体名词):有单复数形式。
e.g. a car→two cars a city→six cities
可数名词复数形式构成法:
1.规则变化
(1)绝大多数名词的复数形式是在名词词尾加s.
e.g. desk—desks map—maps day—days
bag—bags face—faces house—houses
(2)以字母s, sh, ch, x为结尾和以辅音字母+o结尾的名词,在词尾加es.
e.g. bus—buses brush—brushes
watch—watches box—boxes
tomato—tomatoes potato—potatoes
但piano—pianos radio—radios photo—photos等例外。
(3)以字母f或fe结尾的名词,要把f或fe改为v,再加es。
e.g. life—lives leaf—leaves knife—knives
(4)以“辅音字母+ y”结尾的名词,要变y为i,再加es。
e.g. factory—factories baby—babies dictionary—dictionaries
2.不规则变化
(1)改变单数名词中的元音字母。
e.g. man—men woman—women
foot—feet tooth—teeth
(2)单、复数形式相同。
e.g. a sheep—two sheep a deer—six deer
(3)其他形式。
e.g. a child—many children a mouse—five mice
(4)表示民族的名词,单、复数形式因习惯而不同。
①单、复数形式相同:a Chinese—two Chinese

a Japanese—six Japanese
②词尾加s:a Russian—four Russians
a German—five Germans
③变man为men:an Englishman—seven Englishmen
an Englishwoman—two Englishwomen
(5)复合名词变复数时,有以下几种情况:
①一般只把复合名词中的主体名词变为复数。
e.g. looker (s) -on旁观者 passer (s) -by过路人
②有些复合名词,要各部分都变复数形式。
e.g.woman doctor—some women doctors
a man teacher—two men teachers
※在初中阶段只有用man和woman构成的复合形容词属于此类。
e.g. a boy student—some boy students

(二)不可数名词(物质名词和抽象名词):一般用单数形式,但以下几种情况需要注意。
1.物质名词在表示不同类别时,可用复数。
e.g. fruit 水果—fruits 各种水果
fish 鱼—fishes各种鱼
2.有些物质名词的单、复数形式表示不同含义。
e.g. snow 雪—snows 积雪 green 绿色—greens 青菜
cloth 布—clothes 衣服 poor 贫穷—poors 穷人
3.物质名词在表示数量时,常用表示数量的“of”词组来表示。of之前表示数量的名词,可根据情况用单数或复数。of之后,如果是物质名词,用单数;如果是可数名词,则用复数。
e.g. a cup of tea 一杯茶
three boxes of matches 三盒火柴
4.有些抽象名词,用复数形式时,另有别的含义。

三、名词的格
(一)名词的格:英语中,名词有三种格——主格(作主语)、宾格(作宾语)和所有格。其中只有所有格有形式变化。
(二)名词的所有格:名词中表示“所有”关系的形式叫名词所有格。所有格的构成有以下几种:
1.表示有生命(人或动物)的名词的所有格,一般在名词词尾加“'s”。
e.g. my father's study 我父亲的书房
(1)词尾是s或es的复数名词,末尾加“'”。
e.g. the teachers' reading room 教员阅览室
the workers' rest-home 工人疗养院
(2)词尾不是s的复数名词,要加“'s”。
e.g. the people's needs 人民的需要
women's rights 妇女的权利
(3)如果一样东西为两人共有,则只在后一个名词的词尾加“'s”;如果不是共有,则两个名词的词尾都要加“'s”。
e.g. Jane and Helen's room 珍妮和海伦的房间(共有)
Bill's and Tom's radios
比尔的收音机和汤姆的收音机(不共有,表示两人各有一台收音机)
(4)在表示店铺、某人的家时,名词所有格的后面一般省掉它所修饰的名词。
e.g. at the doctor's 在诊所
(5)有些指时间、距离、国家、城镇的无生命名词,也可以加“'s”或“'”表示所有格。
e.g. half an hour's lesson 半小时的讲课
Shanghai's factories 上海的工厂
ten minutes' walk 十分钟的路程
2.表示无生命东西的名词,一般与of连用表示所有关系。
e.g. a map of China中国地图
the workshop of the factory 工厂的车间
3.“of词组+所有格”的用法:在表示所属物的名词前有冠词、数词、不定代词或指示代词(如a, two, some, a few, this, that, these, those
