一般過去時

1. 一般過去時常用來表示過去某個時間發(fā)生的動作或存在的狀態(tài)。在一般過去時態(tài)的句子中，要注意其謂語動詞要用動詞的過去式，尤其是不規(guī)則動詞的過去式的構(gòu)成，如see-saw，go-went等；此外，疑問句和否定句要使用助動詞did。用在一般過去時態(tài)中的時間狀語有yesterday，last Tuesday，three weeks ago等，當然，還有由when，before，after等引導的表示過去的時間狀語從句。

eg: Mary didn’t stay at home yesterday morning.

   I often played games by the river when I was young.

【中考鏈接】We were in Qingdao last week and _______ a great time.

            A. will have    B. have had    C. had    D. have    （2008·北京）

【解析】選C。根據(jù)句中的時間狀語last week可知句子用的是一般過去時態(tài)，and連接的前后兩個并列句，時態(tài)要保持一致。故and后也用一般過去時態(tài)。

2. 有時候，在一個句子中，并沒有表明明確的時間狀語，但根據(jù)句子的意思，可以判斷出動作是發(fā)生在過去的，因此也用一般過去時態(tài)。

eg: I knew he liked collecting match boxes. （我當時知道他收集火柴盒）

   --- Hi, Nancy. How was your trip to the Great Wall?

   --- Hi, Bill. Oh, we had a good time there.

（句子在說他們談論的過去的事，應用一般過去時態(tài)。）

【中考鏈接】① --- When _______ your mother ________ you that blue dress, Mary?

               --- Sorry, I really can’t remember.  （2008·武漢）

              A. does, buy    B. has, bought    C. had, bought    D. did, buy

             ② --- I called you just now, but nobody answered. Where _______?

                --- I was out with my mother.   （2008·安徽）

              A. were you    B. are you     C. have you gone     D. have you gone

【解析】① 選D。句子問的是“你媽媽合適為你買的那條藍色的裙子”，可知買裙子的事情發(fā)生在過去，故應用一般過去時態(tài)。

② 選A。根據(jù)句意，說的是“我剛才給你打電話，但沒人接”，緊接著問“你當時在哪兒”，因此用一般過去時態(tài)。

過去進行時

1. 過去進行時態(tài)用來表示過去某一具體時刻或某一階段正在進行的動作，其基本構(gòu)成為was / were +doing。常用在過去進行時態(tài)中的時間狀語有at this time yesterday，at ten o’clock last night，at that time等以及由when或while引導的時間狀語從句。

eg: I was listening to the radiio at half past eight yesterday morning.

   What were you doing when I knocked at the door?

【中考鏈接】--- Were you at home at nine o’clock last night?

            --- Yes, I _________ a shower at that time.  （2008·吉林）

            A. took   B. was taking   C. was taken   D. am taking

【解析】選B。根據(jù)句中的時間狀語at nine o’clock last night，可知是過去具體的某一時刻，因此答句應用過去進行時態(tài)。

2. 表示在過去的某一時間同事發(fā)生的兩個動作，往往用過去進行時態(tài)來表示延續(xù)的動作，用一般過去時態(tài)來表示短暫的動作。此外，while用來引導時間狀語從句時，也可用過去進行時態(tài)來表達主句和從句同事發(fā)生的動作（動詞應為延續(xù)性動詞）；此時，強調(diào)動作同時進行。

eg: Mum was cooking dinner when I returned home.

   Danny was writing a while we wrere watching TV.

【中考鏈接】① The children ______ a P.E. class on the playground when it suddenly began to

rain. （2008 河北）

              A. have    B. am having    C. had    D. were having

             ② I ______my homework while my parents ______ TV last night. ( 2006·南京）

              A. did, have watched        B. was doing, were watching

              C. had done, were watching   D. would do, were watching

【解析】① 選D。 When 引導的時間狀語從句是過去時，所以主句的動作是發(fā)生在過去的時間點里孩子們正在上體育課，所以用過去進行時態(tài)。

        ② 選B。因為時間狀語是在昨晚表示過去的時間，而while用來引導時間狀語從句時，也可用過去進行時態(tài)來表達主句和從句同事發(fā)生的動作，所以選D。

3. 過去進行時態(tài)還可以用來表示在過去一段時間內(nèi)持續(xù)進行的動作（有時也可以有間歇）。

  eg: It was snowing last night.

     We were listening to music the whole morning yesterday.

 注意，此時用過去進行時態(tài)是和一般過去時態(tài)有明顯的差別的。前者表示過去某一時刻或某一段時間內(nèi)正在進行的動作（可能沒完成），而后者往往表示動作已經(jīng)完成。

eg: I was reading a storybook last night. （強調(diào)昨晚一直在看，可能未看完）。

   I read a storybook last night.  （只是表達動作昨晚看故事書了，已看完）。

過去將來時

    過去將來時態(tài)表示從過去某一時間來看要發(fā)生的動作或存在的狀態(tài)，常用的時間狀語有the next day, the next year等。

1.構(gòu)成

和一般將來時態(tài)相對應，其構(gòu)成常用以下兩種，“would + 動詞原形”和“was / were going to + 動詞原形”。此外，還可用was / were to do sth.和限于某些瞬間動詞come, go, leave等的過去進行時態(tài)來表示過去將來。

2.用法

（1）常用于賓語從句中。eg: He told me he would come here by train the next week.

【中考鏈接】The Japanese asked when Lucy _________ the USA.   （2006·山西）)

           A. flying to   B. will fly to   C. would fly to   D. flew for   

【解析】選C。主句中的謂語動詞為asked, 從當時看將要發(fā)生的動作要用過去將來時。故選C。

（2）敘述發(fā)生在過去的故事。

eg: It was a sunny morning. A boy ran on the road and he was going to …

（3）表示過去的習慣性動作常用would + do 來表示，相當于uesd to do，意為“過去常?！?。

eg: He would often put up his hand in class when he was young.

   = He uesd to put up his hand in class when he was young.

過去完成時

    過去完成時態(tài)常用來表示在“過去的過去”發(fā)生或完成的動作，也可用來表示在“過去的過去”發(fā)生的動作或狀態(tài)持續(xù)到“過去”，其基本結(jié)構(gòu)為had+done。

 1. 表示在過去某一時間或動作之前已經(jīng)發(fā)生或完成了的動作。也就是我們常說的“過去的過去”，與之常連用的時間狀語有by last week, by the end of last year等。并且過去完成時常出現(xiàn)在由when, before, after引導的復合句中。

eg: We had finished our homework when class was over.

   By the time we got there, he had left.

【中考鏈接】By the end of last year, we _______ more than 2,000 words.

            A. learned  B. have learned   C. had learned    （2008·青海）

【解析】選C。根據(jù)句中的時間狀語by the end of last year, 說的是“到去年年底為止”，故句子用完成時態(tài)。

2. 表示從過去某一時間開始一直持續(xù)到過去另一時間的動作或狀態(tài)，常與for, since等引導的時間狀語連用，句中需用延續(xù)性動詞。

eg: He said he had been a teacher since 2001.

   The film had been on 10 minutes when we got to the cinima.

3. 常用在賓語從句中，此時主句為一般過去時。

eg: He told me he had finished writing the novel.

【中考鏈接】---Why did Miss Wang look so woried when we saw her?

            ---Because she wondered ______. （2008·南京）

           A. where did the other students go

           B. when would the policeman come

           C. what her students have done during the trip

           D. if her students had survived the earthquake.

【解析】選D。此題考查賓語從句。賓語從句要用陳述句語序，所以排除A和B。賓語從句和主句的時態(tài)要保持一致，主句是一般過去時，從句應用過去的某種時態(tài)，即過去完成時態(tài)，所以選D。
