英语时态考题专练(7)
高考试题，从四个方面着手，力图帮助广大考生突破高考动词时态题
一、利用时间标志词巧解动词时态题
遇到动词时态题时首先在题干中寻找时间标志词，如果题干中有标志性的时间状语，则往往可以根据时间状语选择相应的时态。

【考例】①Daniel’s family ______ their holiday in Huangshan this time next week.(2009安徽卷)
A. are enjoying
B. are to enjoy
C. will enjoy
D. will be enjoying
【解析】D。

题干中的时间状语this time next week是将来进行时的时间标志词，故选用D项。

②His sister left home in 1998, and _______since.（2009全国卷I）
A. had not been heard of
B. has not been heard of
C. had not heard of
D. has not heard of
【解析】B。

根据时间标志词since可知，应使用现在完成时。

根据句意，此处应表示被动意义，故选择B项。

③Judy is going to marry the sailor she ______ in Rome last year.（2008重庆卷）
A. meets
B. met
C. has met
D. would meet
【解析】B。

定语从句中出现了一般过去时的时间标志词last year，因此定语从句中应使用一般过去时。

动词的时态一般都有其对应的时间状语，熟记下列8种常用时态所对应的时间状语将对你今后解题有所帮助。

（1）一般现在时：often, always, usually, seldom, now, every day等。

（2）一般过去时：then, yesterday, in the past, last week, after that, ago等。

（3）现在进行时：now, right now, at present, at this moment, these days等。

（4）过去进行时：then, at that time, at this time yesterday等。

（5）现在完成时：recently, lately, up to/till now, so far, in the past / last few months / years…, for +一段时间, since +一段时间等。

（6）过去完成时：bef ore, by the end of last month / years…等
（7）一般将来时：tomorrow, next week / month…, in an hour, in the coming / following few weeks等。

（8）过去将来时：the following month, the next week等。

【命题角度及对策】高考测试动词时态须与句中时间状语一致时，常在题干中
加入具体情景，以测试考生对动词时态知识的实际运用能力。

敏锐捕捉时间标志词，并结合具体的语境，选择出正确的动词时态，是解决此类问题的良策。

二、利用主从时态呼应原则巧解动词时态题
遇到动词时态题时，如果所给题干是含有状语从句或宾语从句的主从复合句，可根据主从句时态呼应的原则选出正确的时态。

【考例】①My parents have promised to come to see me before I _______ for Africa.(2009辽宁卷)
A. have left
B. leave
C. left
D. will leave
【解析】B。

时间状语从句中表示将来意义时，应使用一般现在时表示将来。

②Scientists have many theories about how the universe _______ into being.（2009北京卷）
A. came
B. was coming
C. had come
D. would come
【解析】A。

主句中使用的是一般现在时，宾语从句中可根据需要使用任何时态。

根据常识，宇宙的形成是过去发生的事情，故宾语从句中使用一般过去时。

③The moment I got home, I found I my jacket on the playground. (2008陕西卷)
A. had left
B. left
C. have left
D. was leaving
【解析】A。

I found后接宾语从句，由于主句动词使用了一般过去时，且宾语从句的动作发生在主句动作之前，应使用过去完成时。

【命题角度及对策】近年来高考试题考查主从句的时态呼应时，常放在真实的并且符合实际的语境中进行考查。

在根据主从句时态呼应原则解题时，要把握好以下几点：
（1）在时间、条件等状语从句中，用一般现在时表示一般将来时，一般过去时表示过去将来时，用现在完成时表示将来完成时。

（2）正确认定主句动词及从句动词两个动作发生的先后时间，并认真体会命题者所给出的语境。

（3）解答宾语从句与主句时态呼应题时，考生应熟知以下规则：主句动词为现在时，则从句动词可根据需要使用任何时态；主句动词为过去时，则从句动词须用恰当的过去的某种时态（表示客观真理时使用一般现在时）。

三、利用具有特殊时态要求的固定搭配巧解动词时态题
英语中有很多固定搭配或特殊句式，使用的动词时态非常固定。

如果题干构成某种固定搭配或特殊句式，则根据规则选用规定的时态。

【考例】①This is the first time we ______ a film in the cinema together as a family.（2009陕西卷）
A. see
B. had seen
C. saw
D. have seen
【解析】D。

This is the first / second / last…time (that)…是固定结构，后面的从句中应使用现在完成时。

如果把is改为was，则后面的从句中应使用过去完成时。

②—How can I apply for an online course?
—Just fill out this form and we _____ what we can do for you.（2007北京卷）
A. see
B. are seeing
C. have seen
D. will see
【解析】D。

“祈使句（或名词词组）+ and (或or)简单句”是并列句的一种固定句式，and（或or）后的简单句通常用将来时或用情态动词表示将来。

③I ______ along the street looking for a place to park my car when the accident
______. （2006江苏卷）
A. went; was occurring
B. went; occurred
C. was going; occurred
D. was going; had occurred
【解析】C。

be doing…when…是一个固定句式，意思是“正在……，这时（发生了另一件事）”，主句中使用过去进行时，从句中使用一般过去时；另外也可使用be about to do…when…或be on the point of doing…when…句式，意思是“正要做某事，这时……”。

【命题角度及对策】高考测试的热点倾向于be doing (about to do)…when…；no sooner…than…；hardly…when…；It / This is / was the first(second…) time…以及对时态有特殊要求的固定句式。

在平时的英语学习中，同学们一定要夯实基础知识，熟记教材中出现的各种习惯搭配，这不仅有助于解单项填空题，而且对解完形填空和短文改错题也有帮助，还能在书面表达中增添色彩。

四、利用语境巧解动词时态题
近年来高考试题对时态语态考查的要求越来越高，设题趋向于不出现时间状语，而向情境化、实际化的方向发展。

因此，细心体会所给语境，根据具体语境选择合适的时态是考生需要重点解决的问题。

【考例】①Edward, you play so well. But I ______ you played the piano. (2009北京卷)
A. didn’t know
B. hadn’t known
C. don’t know
D. haven’t known
【解析】A。

本题的语境为：爱德华，你弹得很好。

但我（以前）不知道你会弹钢琴。

“不知道会弹钢琴”是过去（以前）的认识，故用过去式。

②When he _______ the door, he found his keys were nowhere.（2009湖南卷）
A. would open
B. opened
C. had opened
D. was to open
【解析】D。

根据语境可知，当他要开门的时候，发现找不到钥匙了。

B、C 项过去时和过去完成时都表示打开了门，与语境不符。

A项虽然表达的时间概念与语境相符，但是在时间状语从句中一般不用将来时，故选择D项，was to do
是一般过去时，表示将来意义。

③Would you please keep silent? The weather report ______ and I want to listen.（2009湖南卷）
A. is broadcast
B. is being broadcast
C. has been broadcast
D. had been broadcast
【解析】B。

句意为：请保持安静好吗?正在广播天气预报，我想听一听。

由“I want to listen”可知，说话时天气预报正在播报，应使用进行时，且表示被动
含义，故选B项。

【命题角度及对策】近年来高考试题对时态考查的要求越来越高，大部分试题趋向情境化、实际化。

对策是，捕捉信息，理解情境，综合运用，灵活答题。

高考动词时态题解题思路
一、慧眼识别标志词
遇到时态题时首先寻找时间标志词，如果题干中有标志性的时间状语，则往往可以根据时间状语选择相应的时态。

【考例】
①So far this year we ______ a fall in house prices by between 5 and 10 percent.（NMET 2008福建卷）
A. saw
B. see
C. had seen
D. have seen
【解析】D。

题干中的时间标志词so far是现在完成时的时间状语，故选用现在完成时。

②Judy is going to marry the sailor she ______ in Rome last year.（NMET 2008重庆卷）
A. meets
B. met
C. has met
D. would meet
【解析】B。

定语从句中出现了一般过去时的时间标志词last year，因此定语从句中应使用一般过去时。

动词的时态一般都有其对应的时间状语，请同学们熟记下列8种常用时态所对应的时间状语。

（1）一般现在时：often, always, usually, seldom, now, every day
等。

（2）一般过去时：then, yesterday, in the past, last week, after that,
ago, in the following/
next few months等。

（3）现在进行时：now, right now, at present, at this moment, these days等。

（4）过去进行时：then, at that time, at this time yesterday等。

（5）现在完成时：recently, lately, up to/till now, so far, in the past/last few months/ years…, for +一段时间, since +一段时间等。

（6）过去完成时：before, by the end of last month/years…等
（7）一般将来时：tomorrow, today, next week/month…, in an hour, in the coming/following few weeks等。

（8）过去将来时：the following month, the next week等。

【命题角度及对策】高考测试动词时态须与句中时间状语一致时，常在题干中加入具体情景，以测试考生对动词时态知识的实际运用能力。

敏锐捕捉时间标志词，并结合具体的语境，选择出正确的动词时态，是解决此类问题的良策。

二、主从时态须呼应
如果所给题干是含有状语从句或宾语从句的主从复合句，可根据主从句时态呼应的原则选出正确的时态。

【考例】①If their marketing plans succeed, they ______ their sales by 20 percent.(NMET 2008全国II)
A. will increase
B. have been increasing
C. have increased
D. would be increasing
【解析】A。

这时一个含有条件状语从句的主从复合句，条件状语从句中使用了一般现在时，表达将来意义，主句中应使用一般将来时。

②The moment I got home, I found I my jacket on the playground.( NMET 2008陕西卷)
A. had left
B. left
C. have left
D. was leaving
【解析】A。

I found后接宾语从句，由于主句动词使用了一般过去时，且宾语从句的动作发生在主句动作之前，应使用过去完成时。

【命题角度及对策】近年来高考试题考查主从句的时态呼应时，常放在真实的并且符合实际的语境中进行考查。

在根据主从句时态呼应原则解题时，要把握好以下几点：
（1）在时间、条件等状语从句中，用一般现在时表示一般将来时，一般过去时表示过去将来时，用现在完成时表示将来完成时。

（2）正确认定主句动词及从句动词两个动作发生的先后时间，并认真体会命题者所给出的语境。

（3）解答宾语从句与主句时态呼应题时，考生应熟知以下规则：主句动词为现在时，则从句动词可根据需要使用任何时态；主句动词为过去时，则从句动词须用恰当的过去的某种时态（表示客观真理时使用一般现在时）。

三、瞻前顾后巧搭配
英语中有很多固定搭配或特殊句式，使用的动词时态非常固定。

如果题干构成某种固定搭配或特殊句式，则根据规则选用需要的时态。

【考例】①—How can I apply for an online course?
—Just fill out this form and we ______ what we can do for you.（NMET 2007北京卷）
A. see
B. are seeing
C. have seen
D. will see
【解析】D。

祈使句（或名词词组）+ and (或or)简单句是并列句的一种固定句式，and（或or）后的简单句通常用将来时或用情态动词表示将来。

②I ______ along the street looking for a place to park my car when the accident ______. （NMET 2006江苏卷）
A. went; was occurring
B. went; occurred
C. was going; occurred
D. was going; had occurred
【解析】C。

be do ing…when…是一个固定句式，意思是“正在……，这时（发生了另一件事）”，主句中使用过去进行时，从句中使用一般
过去时；另外也可使用be about to do…when…或be on the point of doing…when…句式，意思是“正要做某事，这时……”。

【命题角度及对策】高考测试的热点倾向于be doing (about to do)…when…；no sooner…than…；hardly…when…；It/This is/was the first(second…) time…以及对时态有特殊要求的固定句式。

在平时的英语学习中，同学们一定要夯实基础知识，熟记教材中出现的各种习惯搭配，这不仅有助于解单项填空题，而且对解完形填空和短文改错题也有帮助，还能在书面表达中增添色彩。

四、细心体会辨语境
近年来高考试题对时态语态考查的要求越来越高，设题趋向于不出现时间状语，而向情境化、实际化的方向发展。

因此，细心体会所给语境，根据具体语境选择合适的时态是考生需要重点解决的问题。

【考例】①—Did you watch the basketball match yesterday?

A. is playing
B. was playing
C. has played

A. was staying
B. stayed
C. would stay
D. had stayed
【解析】D。

根据语境可知，那家旅馆不是特别好，但是“我”曾在很多更糟糕的旅馆住果。

第一句中使用的是一般过去时，but引导的并列句的转折意味表明在这之前住过很多更糟糕的旅馆，应使用过去完成时。

【命题角度及对策】近年来高考试题对时态考查的要求越来越高，大部分试题趋向情境化、实际化。

对策是，捕捉信息，理解情境，综合运用，灵活答题。

●模拟解析●
1. C。

第一空填look, 因为这是祈使句的谓语；第二空填had，因为前一句说“看看时间吧”，这一看当然知道了现在很迟的情形，“不知道这么迟了”显然应是“过去”的事，故应用一般过去时态。

2. A。

从语境上看，“忘记”的时间应是现在，即指现在不记得了。

3. B。

其中的did 为强调用法。

4. B。

从语境上看，develop 不仅要用被动语态，而且要用进行时态。

5. A。

从下文的语境看，既然现在叫对方重复一遍，说明“没听清对方的最后一点”应发生在过去（即说此话之前）。

6. B。

before 用作副词时不与具体时间连用，泛指“以前”，通常与一般过去时或现在完成时连用。

7. C。

表示目前的一种状态。

8. B，注意下文语境：事实上，我昨天就做完了。

从该回答的语气上推测，填空处应填现在完成时态。

9. D。

第一个when 引导的是主语从句，用一般将来时表示将来；第二个when 引导的是时间状语从句，用一般现在时表示将来。

10. C。

因为date from 的意思是“自某时起存在至今”(＝have existed since)，它通常用于一般现在时，而不用过去时态(尽管其后接的总是表示过去的时间)，除非所谈论的东西现在已不复存在，如：The church, which dated from the 13th century, was destroyed in an earthquake two years ago (那座教堂是13世纪建成的，两年前在一次地震中被毁了)。

(注：与date from 同义的date back to 也有类似用法。

)
11. A。

前一句谓语用had hoped，表示的是过去未曾实现的想法或打算，可以译为“本想”，而后一句说“我太忙”，这是陈述过去的一个事实，所以要用一般过去时。

12. B。

用现在完成时表示结果，即你已经错过了机会，其结果是：你只能等。

13. B。

用现在完成时表示影响或结果，即现在笔不见了，是由于某人已经把它拿走了的结果。

14. B，用现在完成时表示从过去持续到现在的一段时间。

15. C，用现在完成时表示影响或结果，即他整个星期都在国外，所以你说你在剧院见过他，你一定是搞错了。

16. C。

指刚才对方提醒之前没看到垃圾箱，用过去式。

17. A。

由now和for a long time可知“很长时间都没有像现在这样下雨这么多”，用现在完成时。

18. A。

由no是对前句的否定可知现在不在部队服役，是以前“服过役”，故用一般过去时。

19. B。

从语境看“忘记”应为过去；“放学后自己去记”是临时的决定，不能用表示计划或打算的be going to。

20. D。

从“我们只谈了几句话”可知，当我们去拜访时，Professor Smith“正要”离开了，D是过去进行时表示过去将来时。

21. C。

由“我正要去洗澡”可知昨天你打电话时“我刚刚画完”，“画完”在“打电话前”之前，即过去的过去，故用过去完成时。

22. B。
