√
构成:
由“have/has been +动词的现在分词”构成,第三人称单数用 has,其他人称用 have。
用法:
①表示从过去开始一直持续到现在的动作,该动作在说话时仍在继续进行,
可能还要继续下去,也可能刚刚结束。
②带有某种感彩
③不能用现在完成进行时的情况
区分:
现在完成时和现在完成进行时的区别
Present perfect continuous ——现在完成进行时
表示从过去开始一直持续到现在的动作,该动作在说话时仍在继续进行,可能还要继续下去,也可能刚刚结束。
这个时态常和 recently、all day、this week 等状语或 for、since 引导的时间状语从句连用。例如:
We have been studying for nearly 3 hours.
我们已经学了近3个小时了。
He has been studying traditional Chinese medicine since1999.
他从1999年开始学习中医。
用法
用法
带有某种感彩:
Recently Li Hua has been helping his mother do housework regularly.
最近李华经常帮他妈妈做家务。 (赞许的感彩)
I'm glad the lecture is finished! I've been sitting for three hours.
很高兴演讲终于结束了,我已经整整坐了三个小时了。 (强调坐的时间长)
用法
不能用现在完成进行时的情况:
①某些不能用于进行时的动词同样也不能用于现在完成进行时,只能用现在完成时。如:see、hear、know、have、like、be 等。
他已经感冒两个星期了。
He has been having a cold for two weeks.
He has had a cold for two weeks.
②不具有延续意义的动词,如:finish、come、go、marry等不能用于现在完成进行时。
(×)
(√)
区分
现在完成时和现在完成进行时的区别:
①现在完成时强调动作已经完成,但对现在有影响或其结果现在仍然存在;而现在完成进行时着意于动作本身,是一种持续的(但不一定是结束了的)活动。
I have written a book on UFO. It was finished last year.
我写了一本关于 UFO的书,这本书是去年写完的。
I have been writing a book on UFO. I should be able to finish it early next year.
我一直在写一本关于 UFO的书,我应该在明年年初就能写完。
区分
现在完成时和现在完成进行时的区别:
②现在完成时陈述事实;而现在完成进行时则强调动作在不久以前持续进行的情景,并带有感彩。
My father has lost his keys.
我父亲把钥匙丢了。(陈述事实)
My father has always been losing his keys.
我父亲老是弄丢自己的钥匙。(含责怪或无奈之意)
区分
现在完成时和现在完成进行时的区别:
③ 现在完成时既可用于状态性动词,也可用于动作性动词;
现在完成进行时通常只用于动作性动词。
I have had this computer for 10 years, with which I have written plenty of articles.
我已拥有这台电脑10年之久了,并用它写了大量的文章。
I have been writing articles with this computer for 10 years.
10年来我一直用这台电脑写文章。
区分
现在完成时和现在完成进行时的区别:
④有少数动词(如:work、study、live teach、stay 等)在表示持续一段时间时用这两种时态含义差不多,只是用现在完成进行时更强调动作的持续性。
—How long have you worked/been working here
你在这儿工作多长时间了?
—Ten years.
10年了。
