2023年初中英语一般过去式的用法
一般过去式的用法:
1) 表示过去某一时刻或某一段时间内所发生的动作或情况,通常一般过去式带有表示动作时间状语的词,词组或从句,如:a minute ago, yesterday,last week,in1900,during the night,in those days,the other day(前几天)、once up on a time(过去曾经)、 just now(刚才)、in the old days(过去的日子里)、before liberation(解放前…)、 When I was 8 years old(当我八岁时…)
等。用一般过去时的时候,要表示“过多少时间之后”一般用after,不用in
如: Tom suddenly fel ill yesterday
Tom 昨天突然生病了。
She didn't look well when i lat saw her
我上次看见她的时候,她脸色不好
2.一般过去时也可与 today,this week,this month ,this year 等时间状语连用。但是这些时间状语必须指过去,决不包括“现在”在内
如: Did you see him today?
今天你见过他了吗?
(today实际上指的是今天的过去某一时刻)
3.一般过去时虽不可以与now连用 ,但却可以和just now(刚才)连用。
如:He went out just now
他刚出去了
4.一般过去时表示过去的时候还有以下一些情况
①:用于since从句,主句的谓语动词如果用现在完成时。其后接的since引导的从句一般须用一般过去时
如:It's been over a year since i came back from the countryside
我从乡下回来已经一年了
(主句的谓语动词 has been 也可以改为 is 但美国英语多用现在完成时)
②:时间状语可以省略,前面说过一般过去时常与表过去的时间状语连用,但下面一些情况下,时间状语可以省略---从上文可以清楚地看出来时间状语
如:Did you sleep well?---前文如有现在完成时所引导时
如:I have been within an inch of life ,and didn't know it!---和现在时态对比时候
如: He is no longer the man he was---有表示过去习惯的used to 时候
如:I used to play football in the street
③:所表的动作已经完成
如:I read a book last week 上星期我读了一本书
④: 表示死者的动作和状态。在英语中。说道死去的人的时候,一般用过去时表示
如: Who is the man in the picture? 照片上的人是谁?
He was my father. 他是我父亲
⑤: 有感情色彩的时候如:You asked for it!
你这是自找!
5表示过去一段时间内经常或反复的动作
常与always,never等连用。

彼得太太过去老是带着一把伞。
(只是说明她过去的动作,不表明她现在是否常带着伞。)

7) wish, wonder, think, hope 等用过去时,作试探性的询问、请求、建议等。

比较:
一般过去时表示的动作或状态都已成为过去,现已不复存在。

(含义:她现在还活着)
