对动词加上完成元素
Present perfect tense
The time of the action is before now but not specified, and we are often more interested in the result than in the action itself.
我主要把握以下5点它的使用场景:
- An action or situation that started in the past and continues in the present. I have lived in Bristol since 1984 (= and I still do.)
- An action performed during a period that has not yet finished. She has been to the cinema twice this week (= and the week isn’t over yet.)
- A repeated action in an unspecified period between the past and now. We have visited Portugal several times.
- An action that was completed in the very recent past, expressed by ‘just’. I have just finished my work.
- An action when the time is not important. He has read ‘War and Peace’. (= the result of his reading is important)
现在完成时态是写作中常用的时态,我要重点把握住它。
Past perfect tense
这个时态的主要作用就是来描述2个过去发生动作的先后。It does not matter which event is mentioned first - the tense makes it clear which one happened first.
例句:I had saved my document, before the computer crashed.
我们假设保存文档是事件A,电脑崩溃是事件B,上面的时态已经清晰地表明了事件A发生在事件B之
