现在完成进行时, 表示从过去某一时间开始一直持续到现在的动作, 还有可能持续到将来, 常与since 或for 引导的时间状语连用。
e. g. I have been writing a book since last week.
从上周开始我就在写一本书。
考点5
现在完成进行时的结构是“have/has been ＋动词的现在分词”
辨析: 现在完成进行时与现在完成时
①现在完成进行时强调的是动作从过去持续到现在, 且可能还将继续下去。
e. g. I have been doing it for years. 我已经做了几年了。
②现在完成时更强调过去的动作给现在留下某种结果和影响。
e. g. I have done it.
我已经做了。
说明这个动作没有断过,现在还在做。
强调做过的事情本身, 现在是否在做不是关键。
