3. Snoopy ________ (live) in his own private world.
Answers：1.has been 2.appeared 3.lives
2 Lead the students to review the three tenses.
Ask them to take some notes.
(一）定义
一般现在时
a.表示经常性，习惯发生的动作或存在的状态
b.表示客观事实和普遍真理
一般过去时
a.表示在过去某一特定时间发生的动作或存在的状态，只陈述过去，不强调对现在是否产生影响
b.表示过去习惯，经常性动作，行为或存在的状态
现在完成时
a.表示过去发生或已经完成的动作对现在造成的影响
b.表示过去某一时间开始并一直持续到现在（包括现在在内）的行为或状态
He takes a walk in the park every morning.他每天早晨在公园里散步。
She was born in 1991. 她是在1991年出生的。
I have finished my homework. 我的作业做完了。
标志词
一般现在时
always,usually,often,sometimes,every day,every week,on Sundays等
一般过去时
yesterday,the day before yesterday,last week(year,night,month),in 1989,just now,at the age of 5,one day,long long ago,once upon a time等
现在完成时
recently,lately,since,for,in the past few years等
He is often late for the meeting. 他常常开会迟到。
There was no supermarket in the small town six years ago.
这个小镇六年前没有超市。
I’ve known her for a long time.我已认识她很长时间了。
句式结构
一般现在时
主语+动词(am/is/are/does/do)+其他
一般过去时
主语+动词的过去式(was/were/did/could/would)+其他
现在完成时
主语+have/has+动词过去分词+其他
Step 2 Learning
1 Teach students to learn the differences between the three tenses.
现在完成时与一般现在时的区别
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）。
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。
现在完成时与一般过去时的区别
现在完成时和一般过去时所表示的动作都是发生在过去，所以在实际运用中很容易混淆二者的用法。现在我们就一起来看看现在完成时和一般过去时的区别。
1.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:
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“一段时间+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.她自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），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）
