過去進(jìn)行時(shí)
使用was/were+-ing形式來表示過去進(jìn)行時(shí),過去進(jìn)行時(shí)用來表示:
1.在過去某個(gè)時(shí)刻或時(shí)段,事情正在發(fā)生;He was waiting someone at 19:20.
2.某事發(fā)生時(shí),另一件事現(xiàn)在同時(shí);She was watching the TV show when I arrived home yesterday.
3.描述某人正在做的事情,直到另一個(gè)事情中止或打斷他。Sam was playing basketball when he hurt his arm.
過去時(shí)與過去進(jìn)行時(shí)的比較
過去時(shí):描述過去一個(gè)或多個(gè)已完成動(dòng)作,如:She bought a box of milk yesterday.
過去進(jìn)行時(shí):描述在某時(shí)刻(或某時(shí)刻前后)的一個(gè)未完成的動(dòng)作。She were travelling to the airport at 6 o'clock.
過去時(shí):描述一個(gè)動(dòng)作發(fā)生在另一個(gè)動(dòng)作后。She went out and bought some food.
過去進(jìn)行時(shí):描述正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作,當(dāng)另一件事情發(fā)生。She was drying her hair While I was typing.
- When/While的區(qū)別:When和While都可以用在過去進(jìn)行時(shí)中,但while不用在過去式中,如:
The post came when/while I was having my breakfast.(對(duì))
While the post came, I was having my breakfast.*(錯(cuò))
When The post came, I was having my breakfast.(對(duì))
- used to (是use to的過去式)表過去常常做,現(xiàn)在不做,是情態(tài)詞,后面接動(dòng)詞原型。
1.過去常做而現(xiàn)在不做的事情。
I used to like to drink when I was younger.
2.過去我們做某事的頻率。
We used to go for a run once a week.
3.過去的情況與現(xiàn)在不同。
My parents didn't use to live in the city.
used to與一般過去時(shí)的區(qū)別:
1.過去時(shí)表示發(fā)生在過去的單個(gè)一次性動(dòng)作,used to表示發(fā)生在過去,常常做的事情。
I had a terrible dream last night.(對(duì))
I used to have a terrible dream last night.(錯(cuò))
2.使用for表示過去一段時(shí)間發(fā)生的事情時(shí)用過去式,而不用used to.
