其實三樣野都係講過去ge 事
先講simple past
係講一d 發生左ge 事 (完結埋)
例: I sent the mail on Wednesday.
記唔記得有simple present 呢樣野?
simple past 係 past tense of simple present
simple present 可以用黎講facts(事實), 同埋habits (習慣)
simple past 亦可
係講一d 轉變左ge 事實, 習慣
例如
I did not love speaking before.
In the past, I played the piano everyday.
至於past continuous
都係講past events, 但係就會有interruption
interruption 可以係一件事件, 或者一個時間
例1(事件):
The bell rang when I was reading the book "1984".
呢句係指
當我睇緊1984(書) 個陣(未睇晒), 個鐘響左.
例2(時間):
I was watching the television at 4:00 pm. .
呢句同 "I watched television at 4:00p.m.."有咩分別?
分別大lu
第一句, 用左past continuous, 佢係指你係4:00 附近(例: 3:45-4:30), 你睇緊電視
或者換個角度講
你一直睇緊電視, 而你睇電視ge 時間由_:_ _(早過4:00)至 _:_ _ (遲過4:00)
第二句: 我只係係4:00pm 個陣有睇電視, 4:01, 3:59 或者近住4:00 ge 都無睇
除此以外, past continuous 重可以攞黎講同時發生ge 事
例: I was reading while my brother was doing homework.
最後一點: 佢又係present continuous ge past tense
present continuous 可以用黎講 一個人佢經常(always)做咩做咩做咩
past continuous 都可以
例子: you were always interrupting the others.
至於present perfect, 都係形容past event
1. 形容一d 過左去ge 事(無講時間)
例: I have sent a mail.
2. 一段時間入面ge 改變
例: My English has improved a lot since I started reading English books and newspapers.
3. 經歷
例: I have been to Hong Kong.
4. 一d 預計要發生但未發生ge 事
例: I have not called Tommy yet.
5. 同樣事件, 但係好多個唔同ge 時間發生
例: Barcelona has won in 80 football matches in 2012.
6. 都係講一件持續性ge 事件
例: I have lived in Hong Kong for 19 years.
而家黎講講分別
眼利ge 話你會發覺我打過:
1. I sent the mail on Wednesday.
2. I have sent a mail.
呢個係我要講ge 第一個分別
通常黎講
有講時間ge 係要用simple past
而無講ge, 唔知幾時ge 就用present perfect
比多個例子
1. I have gone to Causeway Bay.
2. I went to Causeway Bay yesterday.
第二個:
要形容一件持續性事件
幾時用simple past, 幾時用present perfect?
1. I have had a cold for 2 weeks.
2. I had a cold last week.
第一句: 我到而家都重感冒, 已經兩星期
第二句: 我上星期感冒 (而家好返)
簡單d 講: 重發生緊ge: present perfect
完結左: simple past
另外, 一見到for (a period of time) 同埋since (time), 通常都係 present perfect
I have lived in Hong Kong for 19 years.
I have lived in Hong Kong since this year. |
