滬江英語 > 英語時態(tài) > 一般過去時

一、一般過去時的結(jié)構(gòu)
1、肯定形式:主語+動詞過去式+其他
例句:She often came to help us in those days.
2、否定形式:①was/were+not;②在行為動詞前加didn't,同時還原行為動詞
例句:I didn't know you like coffee.
3、一般疑問句:①Did+主語+謂語動詞原型+其他? ②WasWere+主語+表語?

一般過去時

肯定式 疑問式 否定式 疑問否定式
I worked Did I work? I did not work Did I not work?
He(She,It) worked Did he(she,it) work? He (she,it)did not work Did he(she,it)not work?
We worked Did we work? We did not work Did we not work?
You worked Did you work? You did not work Did you not work?
They worked Did they work? They did not work Did they not work?

二、一般過去時的基本用法
1.表示過去確定時間內(nèi)發(fā)生的動作或狀態(tài)
常與過去時間狀語如yesterday(昨天),two days ago(兩天前),last year(去年),the other day(前幾天),once upon a time(過去曾經(jīng)),just now(剛才),in the old days(過去的日子里)等連用:
My parents got married in1960.我父母于1960年結(jié)婚。
He lived in Paris until he was six.他在巴黎一直住到6歲。
What did you say just now? 你剛才說什么來著?

2.表示過去連續(xù)發(fā)生的動作
在這種情況下,往往沒有表示過去的時間狀語,而通過上下文來表示:
Where did you grow up? 你是在哪兒長大的?
I grew up right here in this neighborhood.我就在這個居民區(qū)長大。
My friend spent his childhood in Beijing.我的朋友在北京度過了童年。

3.表示過去一段時間內(nèi)經(jīng)?;蚍磸?fù)的動作
常與always,never等連用。如果強調(diào)已經(jīng)終止的習(xí)慣或動作要用used to do sth.:
I never overslept.我過去從未睡過頭。
Roland always took me out to dinner on my birthday.我從前過生日時羅蘭總是帶我出去吃飯。
I used to go to the cinema a lot,but I never get the time now.我過去常去看電影,可現(xiàn)在總是抽不出時間來。
We used to swim every day when we were children.我們還是一群孩子時,天天都去游泳。

有些句子,雖然沒有表示過去確定時間的狀語,但實際上是指過去發(fā)生的動作或狀態(tài):
I thought it was true.我以為這是真的。(在說話之前,我以為這是真的。但現(xiàn)在不這樣認(rèn)為了。)

三、一般過去時記憶口訣
一般過去時并不難,過去動作、狀態(tài)記心間。
動詞要用過去式,時間狀語句末站。
否定句很簡單,didn't 站在動原前,其它部分不要變。
一般疑問句也好變,did放在句子前,主語、動原、其它部分依次站立。
特殊疑問句也簡單,疑問詞加一般疑問句記心間。
最后一條請注意,動詞過去式要牢記!
