用法总结
The simple past tense is used to talk about a completed action in a time before now.
The simple past is the basic form of past tense in English. The time of the action can
be in the recent past or the distant past and action duration is not important.
一般过去时用来谈论在现在之前的一段时间内完成的动作。一般过去时是英语过
去时的基本形式。该动作发生的时间可以是最近的过去,也可以是遥远的过去,
动作的持续时间并不是要强调的重点。
You always use the simple past when you say when something happened, so it is
associated with certain past time expressions.
当我们说“某事发生了”,我们就使用一般过去时来描述,因此它与某些过去的
时间表达相关联。
I traveled to South Korea last year. 去年我去韩国旅游了。
His father died in 1976. 他的父亲在 1976 年去世了。
I often went swimming in that river when I was a child. 我孩提时候经常去那条
河里游泳。
People lived in caves a long time ago. 很久以前人们都住在洞穴里。
