当我还是虫宝宝的时候,虫妈成天碎碎念:“作业没有写完就不可以吃饭!”虫子长大以后,虫妈就改口了:“工作没有做完就不可以吃饭!”(论搬家的必要性) 虫妈昨晚又叨叨了,虫子也乖乖照做了。也就是说,手头的事情先做完了,然后才吃的饭。 画一条时间轴,应该是酱的:时间轴的最右边为现在: “干完活儿”和“开饭”,两个都是过去的动作;其中,“干完活儿”先发生,比“开饭”这个动作还要再过去一点。这也是老师们常把先发生的动作叫做“过去的过去”的原因。 这个概念弄懂后,学习「过去完成时」就简单多了。总体原则是:对于两个过去的动作,先发生的用「过去完成时」,后发生的用「一般现在时」。 01 知识点梳理概念:“过去的过去” 结构:had + 过去分词 常用时间状语: 例句: 注:对于 before,after 引导的从句,动作发生的先后顺序很明显,用一般过去时也可以。所以,在正常情况下,上句可改成:Did you feed the cat before you went to work? 02 固定搭配▶ no sooner (A) than (B) “刚做A,B就发生了”,指A、B前后两个动作,时间上离得比较近。 从 A 到 B,分别是按顺序的先发生、后发生的动作。所以,A用过去完成时,B用一般过去时。 《新概念英语2》38课出现过这个句型,讲了一个衣锦还乡的英国人,光速买房又卖房离开的无厘头故事。 该句式常跟 as soon as…(一……就……) 换着用。上面的例句,也可以改为: As soon ashe had returned, he bought a house. ▶ hardly (A) when (B) 它是 no sooner (A) than (B) 的姊妹句式,意思相近,“刚做A,B就发生了”,“还没来得及做 A,B就发生了”。 又说回那个英国人: 注:A先发生,用过去完成时;B后发生,用一般过去时。 ▶It was the first time that… ……第一次…… 隔壁女神钢琴十级,她国际孤独十级,都还不错啦。 注:举一反三,first 可以替换成 second, third 等其他序数词。 03 课后练习1.
