一般过去时的用法

一般过去时的用法

一般过去时表示过去某个时间发生的动作或存在的状态，也表示过去经常或反复发生的动作。谓语动词要用动词的过去式，常和表示过去的时间状语连用，如：yesterday昨天，last night昨晚，last week上周，last year去年等。

一．一般过去时的结构（可分两类不同的结构）

1.Be 动词的一般过去时

在没有实义动词的句子中使用be动词，am/is的过去式为 was ; are 的过去式were。

肯定句式：主语+be (was/were) +其他.

否定句式：主语 +be (was/were) +not +其他.

一般疑问句：Be (was/ were) + 主语 +其他。

2.实义动词的一般过去时态

肯定句要使用动词的过去式，否定句和疑问句要使用助动词do/does 的过去式did.

肯定句式：主语+动词（过去式）+其他。

否定句式：主语+ didn’t +动词（原形） +其他（ did not= didn’t)

一般疑问句：Did +主语+动词（原形）+ 其他（do, does 的过去式均为did)?

注：1.did 和didn’t 是构成一般过去时的助动词，

其特点是要在其后跟动词的原形。

2.实义动词do的一般过去时，例：

Jim went home yesterday.----Jim didn’t go home yesterday.(否定句）

----Did Jim go home yesterday?(一般疑问句)

----What did Jim do yesterday?(特殊疑问句）

二．一般过去时的判断标志词：yesterday,the day before yesterday,last+时间，this morning,时间+ago,just now,a moment ago,in+过去的时间

注意：一般过去时表示过去经常或反复发生的动作，常和often经常，always ，总是，once a week一周一次，等表示频度的时间状语连用

动词过去式变化规则：

1.一般在动词末尾加ed,如：pull--pulled, cook--cooked, play--played

2.结尾是e加d,如: taste--tasted, live--lived, use--used

3.末尾是辅音字母加一个元音字母的重读闭音节，应双写末尾的辅音字母，再加ed,如:stop--stopped, plan--planned

4.以“辅音字母+y”结尾的，变y为i,再加ed,

如:study--studied

5.不规则动词过去式：（见课后）
