Work in pairs. Say which wonder of the world you would like to visit and why.
1. 用法不同
A: I eat breakfast every morning.
B: I have eaten breakfast this morning.
A句表示过去、现在、未来都要发生的事,这件事是一种习惯或反复。 B句是现在完成时,用于发生在过去的事但对现在仍有影响,或过去的行为一直持续到现在。B句的意思是:我今天早晨吃饭了,表明吃了早饭(可能现在还不饿)。
现在完成时与一般现在时的区别
2. 时间状语不同
一般现在时表示的是当前一段时间持续的动作或者存在的状态,所以在一般现在时中经常会有时间状语every day, on Sundays, often, sometimes 等词出现。
现在完成时中会有一些标志性词语:already, yet, ever, just, since+过去的时间点, for+时间段,so far, up to now, till now等。
侧重点不同
现在完成时和一般过去时所表示的动作都发生在过去, 但它们所强调的重点不同: 现在完成时侧重于对现在的影响; 而一般过去时侧重于某一动作发生在过去某个时间或某段时间, 即现在完成时侧重于现在的结果,而一般过去时侧重于动作发生的时间。如:
现在完成时与一般过去时的区别
I have seen the film. 我看过这部电影。(现在我仍记得电影的内容)
I saw the film three days ago. 三天前我看了这部电影。(强调是三天前,而不是别的什么时候看的电影)
Mr Green has bought a new computer. 格林先生买了一台新电脑。(着重点是格林先生现在有了一台新电脑)
Mr Green bought a new computer yesterday. 格林先生昨天买了一台新电脑。(强调的是格林先生买新电脑的时间是昨天)
2. 时间状语不同
现在完成时常与already, yet, just, ever, never, before等副词以及“for+段时间”, “since+过去时间/从句”等时间状语连用; 而一般过去时则常与“段时间+ago”, just now, yesterday, last week等表示过去时间的状语连用。如:
She has lived here since two years ago. 她两年前就住在这里了。
She lived here two years ago. 两年前她住在这里。
He has been in the League for three years. 他入团已经三年了。
Tom wrote a letter to his parents last night. 昨晚汤姆给他的父母写了封信。
[注意]
句子中如有过去时的时间副词(如yesterday, last week, in 1960)时,不能使用现在完成时,要用过去时。如:
Tom has written a letter to his parents last night. (错)
Tom wrote a letter to his parents last night. (对)
