Although I have lost everything, I have not lost my life. So I will not give up and I will wait for another ship. I have already cut down trees and built a house. I go out with my gunalmost every day to kill animals and birds for food. I’m even learning to grow fruit and vegetables.
A few weeks ago, I found the marks of another man’s feet on the sand. Who else is on my island? How long have they been here? Not long after that, I saw some cannibals trying to kill two men from a broken ship. One of them died but the other ran towards my house. I helped him kill the cannibals.

1. 表示过去发生或已经完成的某一动作
对现在造成的影响或结果。
e.g. –Have you had your lunch yet?
–Yes, I have. I’ve just had it. (现在
我不饿了。)
2. 表示动作或状态从过去某一时刻开始，一直延续到现在，而且可能还要继续下去。现在完成时e.g. I haven’t seen her these days.
I’ve known Bob for three years.
I’ve been at this school for over
two years. 时间状语
already, yet, just, ever, never, before构成
现在完成时是由“助动词have / has+ 动词的过去分词”构成的，规则动词的过去分词构成与过去式相同，不规则动词的过去分词则需逐个记忆。 动词的过去式的变化和过去分词的变化并不完全相同。我们对它们作了一个大致的分类。 (注：例子中单词的变化顺序为：动词原形 → 动词的过去式? → 动词的过去分词)一、过去式和过去分词的变化相同
规则变化：
1. 一般在动词词尾直接加ed。如：
pick → picked → picked;
wish → wished → wished;
stay → stayed → stayed
2. 以不发音的e结尾的动词后面加d。如：
like → liked → liked;
hope → hoped → hoped;
phone → phoned → phoned3. 以“辅音字母 + y”结尾的动词，变y为i，再加-ed。如：
study → studied → studied;
hurry → hurried → hurried;
reply → replied → replied
4. 词尾只有一个辅音字母的重读闭音节动词，要双写辅音字母，再加-ed。如：
stop → stopped → stopped;
clap → clapped → clapped不规则变化：
5. 以不变应万变。如：
let → let → let;
put → put → put;
read → read → read
6. 若中间有双写e，则去掉一个e，单词末尾再加t。如：
feel → felt → felt;
keep → kept → kept;
sleep → slept → slept7. 末尾的字母d变t。如：
lend → lent → lent;
build → built → built;
send → sent → sent
8. 变为以-ought或-aught结尾。如：
buy → bought → bought;
bring → brought → brought;
catch → caught → caught;
teach → taught → taught句式
1. 肯定句：主语 + have / has + 过去分词
(+ 其他)
2. 否定句：主语 + have / has + not + 过去
分词(+ 其他)
3. 一般疑问句：have/ has + 主语 + 过去
分词(+ 其他)4. 特殊疑问句：
特殊疑问词 (不是句子主语) + have / has
+ 主语+过去分词 (+ 其他)
2) 特殊疑问词(是句子主语)+have / has+
过去分词(+ 其他) already 意为“已经”，常用于肯定句中。
一般置于助动词have/has之后，过去分词之前，但也可放在句末。
e.g. 我已经看过这部电影了。
I have already seen the film.
我已经解决了这个问题。
I have already solved this problem.
我已经做完家庭作业了。
I have finished my homework already.现在完成时--与already连用yet，在现在完成时句型中常置于句末。
1) “已经”，常用在疑问句中。
e.g. 琳达已看过这本书了吗?
Has Linda read the book yet?
你完成家庭作业了吗？
Have you finished your homework yet?
2) “还，仍然”，常用于否定句和疑问句。
e.g. 他还未开始工作。
He has not begun to work yet. 现在完成时--与yet连用just 意为“刚刚”，常用于肯定句中。一般置于助动词have/has之后，过去分词之前。
e.g. 我刚吃过午饭。
I have just finished lunch.
我们刚刚听说她的婚讯。
We have just heard of her marriage. 现在完成时--与just连用同学们要注意现在完成时与一般过去时的区别。虽然这两个时态都和过去发生的事情有关，但是现在完成时强调这一动作与现在的关系，如对现在产生的结果、影响等，而一般过去时只表示过去的事实，不表示和现在的关系。如：现在完成时与一般过去时I went home at 10:00 yesterday. I have got home now.
我昨天十点回家的。现在我已经到家了。
I have already finished my homework.
我已经写完家庭作业了。
I finished my homework an hour ago.
