什么是時態(tài):時間+狀態(tài)
先來感受一下時態(tài)~
1. I just feel hopeless. I can't do enough. My children wanted me. They needed me. And now I can't help them. I just feel like such a failure. (Blind-Sided: Homicide Where It Is Least Expected)
句子中的一般過去時,表示這位母親知道孩子已經(jīng)去世。對比,有些走失兒童的父母,在表達(dá)這是孩子的房間時闯估,會用一般現(xiàn)在時,內(nèi)心認(rèn)為孩子還活著。
2. 試比較:(注意語境不同另當(dāng)別論)
He is an English teacher. 他現(xiàn)在是一名英語老師昔头。
He was an English teacher. 他生前是一名英語老師。(was表示人去世)
He used to be an English teacher. 他曾是一名英語老師影兽。(現(xiàn)在可能不是)
時態(tài)要如何用
一般現(xiàn)在時的用法:2個
1. 表達(dá)現(xiàn)在的情況揭斧、狀態(tài)的用法

President Clinton: There is no improper relationship.
克林頓總統(tǒng)針對桃色丑聞的辯詞:It depends upon what the meaning of the word "is" is.
1) If? "is" means "is and never has been", that is not——that is one thing(現(xiàn)在且以前沒有,說謊了)
2) If it means "there is none", that was a completely true statement.(說話的那個時候沒有峻堰,沒說謊)
