我們用一般過去式來談論……
開始和結束在過去的動作
Yesterday, Jennie saved her vase from breaking.
過去同時發生的兩個動作或事件
我們使用簡單過去式 + 簡單過去式來表明這兩個動作都很短:
The moment she saw her son, she stopped crying.
我們使用過去連續式 + 簡單過去式來表明其中一個動作比另一個動作長:
As he was walking by the dam, he saw water seeping through a small hole.
過去重複的動作
He walked to home every day. Sometimes, he took a shortcut.
如何用be動詞構成陳述?
在簡單過去式,我們可以這樣用 verb to be 構成肯定和否定陳述句:
Subject | Verb to be |
|
I He/ She/ It | Was Was not/ wasn’t | Happy. Late. Right. |
You We They | Were Were not/ weren’t |
我如何與其他動詞形成陳述?
在簡單過去式,我們可以這樣用其他動詞構成肯定和否定陳述句:
Subject | Verb |
|
I You We They He / She / It | passed did not / didn’t pass | the test. |
我如何拼寫規則的過去動詞?
對於規則動詞,我們將 -ed 添加到動詞以形成簡單過去時
對於其他動詞,我們以不同的方式改變結尾
規則動詞:
Verbs | We should… | Examples |
Most verbs | + ed | walk walked work worked |
Verbs ending in –e | + d | hate hated like liked |
Verbs ending in –y | – y + ied | carry carried cry cried |
Some verbs ending in a vowel + a consonant | double the consonant + ed | plan planned stop stopped |
不規則動詞:
We can… | Examples | ||
keep the word as it is | beat beat hit hit put put | cost cost hurt hurt read read | cut cut let let shut shut |
change the vowel(s) | become became drink drank know knew sing sang throw threw | come came fall fell meet met sit sat win won | choose chose give gave run ran swim swam write wrote |
change the final consonant | bend bent make made | build built send sent | lend lent spend spent |
change the word | break broke catch caught have had see saw take took | bring brought do did find found leave left speak spoke | buy bought eat ate go went say said think thought |
我如何提問和回答是/否問題?
在簡單過去式,我們可以這樣用 verb to be 構成是/否問題:
Was | I he / she / it | happy? late? right? |
Were | you we they |
Yes, | I he / she / it | was. |
you we they | were. |
No, | I he / she / it | was not / wasn’t. |
you we they | were not / weren’t. |
在簡單過去式,我們可以這樣用其他動詞構成是/否問題:
Did | I you we they he / she / it | do the right thing? help them? pass the test? |
Yes, | I you we they he / she / it | did. |
No, | I you we they he / she / it | did not / didn’t. |
在簡單過去式,我們可以這樣用used to構成回答:
Did | I you we they he / she / it | use to | eat a lot? go to bed early? look healthy? |
Yes, | I you we they he / she / it | did. |
No, | I you we they he / she / it | did not / didn’t. |
