    一般過去時基本用法
    一般過去時的構(gòu)成如下:
    肯定式 疑問式 否定式 疑問否定式
    I worked Did i work? I didn't work Did i not work?
    He(she it) Did he (she it) He(she it) Did he(she it)

    We worked Did we work? We didn't work Did we not work?
    You worked Did you work? You din't work Did you not work?

    1.一般過去時常表示過去某一時間所發(fā)生的動作或存在的狀態(tài)。一般過去時常和表示過去的狀語連用,如a minute ago, yesterday,last week,in1900,during the night,in those days等。用一般過去時的時候,要表示“過多少時間之后”一般用after,不用in
    如: Tom suddenly fel ill yesterday
     Tom 昨天突然生病了。
     She didn't look well when i lat saw her
     我上次看見她的時候,她臉色不好
    2.一般過去時也可與 today,this week,this month ,this year 等時間狀語連用。但是這些時間狀語必須指過去,決不包括“現(xiàn)在”在內(nèi)
    如: Did you see him today?
     今天你見過他了嗎?
     (today實際上指的是今天的過去某一時刻)
    3.一般過去時雖不可以與now連用 ,但卻可以和just now(剛才)連用。
    如:He went out just now
     他剛出去了
    4.一般過去時表示過去的時候還有以下一些情況
    ①:用于since從句,主句的謂語動詞如果用現(xiàn)在完成時。其后接的since引導(dǎo)的從句一般須用一般過去時
    如:It's been over a year since i came back from the countryside
     我從鄉(xiāng)下回來已經(jīng)一年了
    (主句的謂語動詞 has been 也可以改為 is 但美國英語多用現(xiàn)在完成時)
    ②:時間狀語可以省略,前面說過一般過去時常與表過去的時間狀語連用,但下面一些情況下,時間狀語可以省略---從上文可以清楚地看出來時間狀語
    如:Did you sleep well?
    ---前文如有現(xiàn)在完成時所引導(dǎo)時
    如:I have been within an inch of life ,and didn't know it!
    ---和現(xiàn)在時態(tài)對比時候
    如: He is no longer the man he was
    ---有表示過去習(xí)慣的used to 時候
    如:I used to play football in the street
    ③:所表的動作已經(jīng)完成
    如:I read a book last week
     上星期我讀了一本書
    ④: 表示死者的動作和狀態(tài)。在英語中。說道死去的人的時候,一般用過去時表示
    如: Who is the man in the picture? 照片上的人是誰?
     He was my father. 他是我父親
    ⑤: 有感情色彩的時候如:You asked for it!
     你這是自找!
