过去进行时的使用规则
过去进行时常用于:
1. 描述过去某一时间点或时间段正在发生的动作/事I was sitting in the cinema at nine o'clock last night. My brother was eating his breakfast when I left home. (“当我离开家时”也是过去的某一时间点)2. 描述同时在过去发生的两个事件
They were watching the film while I was doing my homework.
过去进行时的使用结构
1. 基本结构
2. 简单回答
3. when和while引导的过去时间状语从句
when表示当...的时候,从句中既可以用延续性动词,又可以用非延续性动词,这些动词即可以表示动作,又可以表示状态。从句中的动作既可和主句的动作同时发生,也可以在主句的动作之前或者之后发生。(从句动作在主句动作之前发生涉及过去完成时,我们后期再议!) while表示在...的时候,在...期间,一边...一边... 。在while引导的时间状语从句中,其谓语动词只能是延续性的,它强调的主语的动作与从句的动作同时发生或主句的动作发生在从句的动作过程中。 小朋友们懂了吗? 不懂的话也没关系! 看这里!小厚把这个知识点给大家总而言之一下! a. when引导的是时间点,while引导的是时间段。Mary was having dinner when I saw her (点).
I was drawing while my brother was reading(段).b. when引导的从句中的动作可以在主句动作发生中、动作发生后发生,while引导的从句中的动作只能和主句动作同时发生。
Mary was having dwhen I saw her (点).
I was drawing while my brother was reading(段).
4. state verbs
之前在讲现在进行时提到过,状态动词(state verbs)不可以使用进行时表达,那么在过去进行时中,也不能使用state verbs哦! 通常不能用于过去进行时的动词主要有: believe, hate, have, like, love, mind, own, seem, understand, want, wish...过去进行时的标志词
- at that time
- at that moment
- when
- while
- 过去的具体时间
- ....
与一般过去时区分
Now, empty your mind. 考验脑回路的时候到啦!一般过去时和过去进行时描述的都是过去发生的事,区别在于:
1. 在过去某一段时间内,当某事在另一件事情进行的过程中发生时,前者用一般过去时,后者用过去进行时。I was watching TV when the phone rang.2. 当两件事同时进行时,都用过去进行时。
My brother was getting ready for bed while I was watching TV.3. 当在过去时间,一件事继某件事之后发生时,都用一般过去时。
When the phone rang , my brother answered it.4. 一般过去时常常表示某事已经完成,过去进行时则表示某事还在持续或未完成。
I was typing a letter last night. (可能没打完) I typed a letter last night.(已经打完了)
