4、先，我们将本模块中出现的有代表性的句子归纳如下：时态例句一般现在时(1)And I think the Three Gorges Dam is fantastic too.(2)It produces electricity for millions of people in China.一般过去时(3)Well, I visited the Giants Causeway two years ago.现在进行时(4)Am I going the right way?过去进行时(5)When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining.
5、一般将来时(6)Youll get there in five minutes.现在完成时(7)Ive never seen it, so Im not sure I agree with you.1.一般现在时基本用法：表示经常发生的动作或存在的状态谓语结构：am / is / are或其他动词的一般现在时形式时间状语：often，always，usually，every day，on Saturday等e.g. My father is always busy with his work. Mr Wang often plays basketball on Sunday.注意: 1) wh
6、en, until, as soon as等引导的时间状语从句和if引导的条件状语从句中, 若主句是将来时或祈使句, 从句则要用一般现在时表示将来。2）列车时刻，飞机航班用一般现在时。2. 一般过去时基本用法：表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态，也可表示过去经常性的动作谓语结构：was / were或其他动词的过去式形式谓语结构：was / were或其他动词的过去式形式时间状语：yesterday，last week，two days ago，in 2012等e.g. Mrs Smith was a teacher two years ago. My mother went to Shangha
7、i last month.注意： used to是过去时, 表示过去常常。e.g. I used to take a walk in the morning. 我以前常常早晨散步。3. 现在进行时基本用法：表示现在或现阶段正在进行的动作或发生的事谓语结构：am / is / are +动词-ing形式时间状语：now，at the moment等e.g. Mum is cooking in the kitchen now.注意：go, come, leave, fly等表示位移的动词的现在进行时可用来表示将来。e.g. She is flying to London tomorrow. 她明天
8、将飞往伦敦。4. 过去进行时基本用法：表示过去某一时刻或某一时段正在进行的动作谓语结构：was / were +动词-ing形式时间状语：at this time yesterday，those days，when或while引导的时间状语从句等e.g. I was doing my homework when you rang me.注意： while从句中的动词只能是延续性动词, when从句中的动词延续性动词非延续性动词均可。e.g. The phone rang while / when Mr. Wang was sleeping on the sofa. 王先生正在沙发上睡觉时, 电
9、话铃响了。5. 一般将来时基本用法：表示将要发生的动作或存在的状态谓语结构：be going to / will+动词原形时间状语：tomorrow，the day after tomorrow，next year等e.g. Li Hong is going to buy a pair of shoes tomorrow. Ill move to America next year.be going to更强调计划性，而will着重表达个人意愿或想法。例如：He is going to spend his vacation in Hawaii.I will give you the infor
10、mation when I get it.注意：there be结构的一般将来时常用There is /are going to be或There will be表示。e.g. There is going to / will be a film this evening. 今晚将有一场电影。6. 现在完成时基本用法：表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响或结果，也可表示过去发生的动作一直持续到现在谓语结构：have / has +动词的过去分词时间状语：already，yet，ever，never，just，before，for +时间段，since +时间点等e.g. John has wor
11、ked in the library since five years ago.现在完成时与一般过去时所表示的行为都发生在过去，但是两者表达的重点不同：一般过去时表述过去的事情，现在完成时则强调过去的行为对现在的影响，如表格中的(7)。看对话，对比两种时态：A: Have you seen the film?B: Yes, I have.A: When did you see it?B: Last night.从对话中可以看出，当谈话重心在过去的时间、地点或人物，而不是事件的结果或影响时，要用一般过去时。反之，如果我们要强调的是过去的事情对现在的影响，则应该用现在完成时。现在完成时还表示某个状
12、态从过去某个时间开始，一直持续到现在。例如：I have lived here for a long time.I have been ill for a week.注意：have been to 曾去过某地, 表示一种经历have gone to 到某地去了e.g. My father has been to Shanghai twice. 我父亲去过两次上海。 Mr Wang isnt here. He has gone to Dalian. 王先生不在这儿, 他去大连了。各种时态中一般疑问句和否定句的构成(以do为例)：1. 一般现在时一般疑问句式：Do I / we / you / t
