36、re 肯定句式:主语+be(was,were)+其它. 否定句式:主语+be(was,were)+not+其它. 一般疑问句:Be(was,were)+主语+其它? 注:在这种构成中,be动词有人称和数的变化,即要根据主语选用was/were。Be动词分为单数和复数,was是表示单数,were是表示复数。 2.实义动词的一般过去时态 肯定句要使用动词的过去式,否定句和疑问句要使用助动词do和does的过去式did. 肯定句式:主语+动词(过去式)+其它 否定句式:主语+didnt+动词(原形)+其它【didnot=didnt】 一般疑问句:Did+主语+动词(原形)+其它【do,does的过去
37、时均为did】? 注:did和didnt是构成一般过去时的助动词,其特点是要在其后跟动词的原形。 3.情态动词的一般过去时态 含有情态动词的一般过去时与含有Be动词的一般过去时,是十分相似,请注意观察。 肯定句式:主语+情态动词+其它. 否定句式:主语+情态动词+not+其它. 一般疑问句:情态动词+主语+其它? 注:情态动词的过去式:cancould,maymight,mustmust。 三、一般过去时的判断标志词 yesterday,thedaybeforeyesterday,last+时间,时间+ago,justnow,amomentago,in+过去的时间,thismorning (一
38、)规则动词的过去式 1.一般情况下,在动词原形后面加-ed。 looklookedplayplayedstartstartedvisitvisited 2.以不发音e结尾的动词,在词尾直接加-d。 liveliveduseused 3.以“辅音字母+y”结尾的动词,先将y改为i,再加ed。 studystudied,trytriedflyflied 4.以重读闭音节(即辅音元音辅音)或r音节结尾,末尾只有一个辅音字母的动词,要先双写这个辅音字母后,再加ed。 stopstoppedplanplanned,preferpreferred 5.不规则动词的过去式需特殊记忆。如:am(is)-was
39、,are-were,go-went,come-came,take-took,have(has)-had等 五、一般过去时的基本用法 一般过去时的用法 表示过去某个特定时间发生的动作或存在的状态。 Hesuddenlyfellilllastnight. 他昨晚突然病倒了。 一般过去时的用法 表示过去的习惯性或经常发生的动作。 Shewenttothecinemaonceamonthwhenshewasatschool. 她上学时每个月去看一场电影。 WhenIwasinthecountryside,Ioftenwalkedbytheriverside. 我在乡下时经常在河边散步。 一般过去时表示过去经常或反复发生的动作,常和often经常, always总是,onceaweek一
