动词短语的概念:
动词常和某些其他词类用在一起,构成固定词组,形成所谓短语动词(phrasalverb)。和动词一样,短语动词也可分为及物和不及物两种。短语动词可以作为一个整体看待,同一般动词一样使用。
动词短语的搭配类型:
1)动词+介词:动词短语知识体系:
过去进行时的概念:
过去进行时表示在过去某一时刻或某一段时间内进行或发生的动作。其形式为was /were + V-ing。
常与表示过去的时间状语连用,如:last night, last Saturday等;或者与when, while, as引导的过去时间状语连用。
过去进行时的基本用法:
1、主要表示过去某一时间正在进行的动作:
如:He fell asleep when he was reading. 他看书时睡着了。
We were expecting you yesterday. 我们昨天一直在等你。
He was playing while I was studying. 我在做功课时他在玩。
2、过去进行时表示现在:
用过去进行时表示现在主要是为了使语气委婉、客气。
如:I was wondering if you could give me a lift. 我不知你能否让我搭一下车。
We were hoping you would stay with us. 我们很希望你能跟我们住在一起。
How much did you want to spend, sir? 先生,您打算花多少钱?
【注】一般过去时也有类似用法,但比较而言,用过去进行时显得更客气,更不肯定。
3、过去进行时表示感情色彩:
与现在进行时相似,过去进行时也可表示满意、称赞、惊讶、厌恶等感情色彩,也通常与always, forever, continually等副词连用。
如:They were always quarrelling. 他们老是吵架。
The boy was continually asking questions. 这个男孩子老是问东问西的。
4、动词be的过去进行时:
动词be的进行时也可表示过去一时的表现或暂时的状态。
如:He was friendly. 他很友好。(指过去长期如此)
He was being friendly. 他当时显得很友好。(指当时一时的表现)
过去进行时与一般过去时的区别:
(1)过去进行时强调动作在过去某时刻正在进行或持续,而一般过去时表示动作的完成。
如:He was writing his composition last night. 他昨晚在写作文。(不一定写完)
He wrote his composition last night. 他昨晚写了一篇作文。(已经写完)
(2)表示过去的状态、感觉及心理活动的静态动词(如be, like, love, hate, fear, own, hear, see, know, want, notice)可用于一般过去时,但通常不用于进行时。
如:I hated it when a man spoke with his mouth full of food. 我讨厌人们说话时口里含着食物。
(3)一般过去时与always, constantly, forever, continually等连用,表示“过去经常性、习惯性的动作”;
而过去进行时与always, constantly, forever, continually等连用,表示动作的重复,常带有感情的色彩。
如: He always got up at six. 他过去总是六点起床。
He was always thinking of his work. 他总是一心想到工作。
(4)有时过去进行时可以用来替换一般过去时,但一般过去时表示主语的行为是经过认真考虑的;
而过去进行时表示一种较随便或没有进行仔细考虑的行为。
如:I thought that he would agree with us. 我原以为它会同意我们的。
I was thinking of persuading him to follow my advice. 我想到了要说服他接受我们的建议。
注:下面几种情况不用一般过去时而要用过去进行时:
1、表示过去某一阶段暂时性的习惯动作时。
如:Tom was getting up at six o'clock every day that week. 汤姆那一周里每天都是六点钟起床。
2、与always连用表示赞美,厌烦等感情色彩时。
如:John was always coming to school late. 约翰上学总是迟到。
LeiFeng was always doing good deeds for the people. 雷锋总是为人民做好事。
3、用来描写故事发生的情景时。
如:It was a dark night. The wind was blowing hard and the rain was falling heavily. A PLA man suddenly appeared on the river bank. He wanted to cross the river.
那是一个漆黑的夜晚,风刮得很厉害,雨下得很大,一个解放军战士突然出现在河岸上,他想过河去。
4、when作并列连词,表示“(这时)突然”之意时,第一个并列分句用过去进行时,when引导的并列分句用一般过去时。
如:I was taking a walk when I met him. 我正在散步,突然遇见了他。
We were playing outside when it began to rain. 我们正在外边玩,这时下起雨来了。
5、go, come, leave, start, arrive等动词可用过去进行时表示过去将来的含义。
如:I was leaving for Wuhan that day. 那天我正要去武汉。
She was coming later. 她随后就来。
