过去进行时讲解及练习.doc

过去进行时

　　（一） 概念和形式：

　　过去进行时表示在过去某一时刻或某一段时间内进行或发生的动作。其形式为was /were + V-ing。常与表示过去的时间状语连用，如：last night, last Saturday等；或者与when, while, as引导的过去时间状语连用。
　例如：
We were watching TV from seven to nine last night.
昨天晚上七点到九点的时候我们在看电视。
What was he researching all day last Sunday?
上周日他一整天都在研究什么？
（二）具体用法：
1) 表示过去某一时刻或过去某段时间内正在进行的动作，一般要有表示过去时间的状语。
例如：
At　that　time　she　was　working　in　Oxford.
那时，她正在牛津大学工作。
It　was　raining　at　6　o'clock　this　morning.
今天早晨六点钟天正下着雨。
What　were　you　doing　when　I　phoned　you　last　night?
昨晚我给你打电话时你在干什么？
2) 在含有时间状语从句的复合句中，延续性动词用过去进行时，非延续性动词用一般过去时。
例如：
They　were　watching　TV　when　I　entered　the　room.
我进入房间时，他们正在看电视。
若主句和从句的动词均为延续性动词，则可以两边都可以采用过去进行时。
例如：
　The　children　were　playing　with　their　toys　while　I　was　eating　my　dinner.
　我吃饭的时候，孩子们在玩他们的玩具。
3) 可用来表示由过去某时持续到另一时间的过去动作。
例如：
He　was　studying　in　Cambridge　between　1999　and　2001.
在1999年和2001年那段时间，他在剑桥学习。
From　January　to　March　I　was　traveling　in　Egypt.
从一月份到三月份期间，我在埃及旅游。
这种时间状语亦可同一般过去时连用，如：
例如：
He　worked　from　morning　till　night　yesterday.
昨天他从早到晚地工作。
4) 表示故事发生的背景。
It　was　a　sunny　morning.　Some　people　were　sitting　on　the　riverbank.
Some　were　walking　with　their　dogs.　Several　boys　were　playing　football　nearby...
一个阳光明媚的清晨。河堤上坐着几个人。有的人在溜狗。不远处有几个男童在踢足球...
5）与某些动词连用时，代替过去将来时。这类动词有　come来,　go去,　leave离开,　start开始,　stay逗留　等。主语必须是人。
例如：
He　telephoned　me,　saying　that　his　aunt　was　coming　to　see　me　soon.
他打电话给我，说他姨妈很快就要看我了。
注意：
（一）有一些动词一般不用过去进行时：如agree, be, believe, belong, care, forget, hate, have(拥有), hear, know, like, love, mean, mind, notice, own, remember, seem, suppose, understand, want, wish等。例如：
误：I was knowing the answer.
正：I knew the answer. 我知道答案。
误：I wasn't understanding him.
正：I didn't understand him. 我不明白他的意思。
（二）过去进行时与一般过去时的区别。
A. 进行时表某一行为的"片断"一般时表示行为的"整体"和存在的状态。
I was reading the book at that time. 　(未读完，"读"的片段)
I read the book yesterday. 　(已读完，表整个"读")
B. 一般持续时间状语多与进行时连用
It was raining all night.
(优先用was raining ,rained 为持续动词，故也可使用)
He was writing a letter the whole of afternoon.
(短暂动词与持续时间连用，表反复，连续发生，不可用一般过去时)
C. while 时间状语从句中用短暂动词时只能用进行时。
例如：He broke a chair while he was jumping up and down.
D. While 所在主从句动作大致持续相等时主从句一般都用进行时，但若是持续动词可都用一般过去时，
两个动作一长一短时短的用一般时，长的用进行时。
I was cooking the dinner while he was playing the piano.(平行)
I cooked the dinner while he played the piano.
I saw him while I was walking to the station.
