初中英语过去进行时讲解

初中英语过去进行时讲解

一、结构：was /were + V-ing

1、动词现在分词的变化规则

2、过去进行时之间的句型转换

He was expecting you yesterday.(肯定句)

He wasn’t expecting you yesterday.(否定句)

Was he expecting you yesterday?(一般疑问句) Yes,he was.No,he wasn’t.

-What was he doing yesterday?(特殊疑问句)

-He was expecting you yesterday.

二、用法：表示过去某时正在进行的动作(不强调是否完成），常与表示时间的状语this morning, the whole morning, all day yesterday, from nine to ten last evening, when, while等连用。

1.表示过去某一时间内（正在）进行的动作；

如：I was doing my homework at 9 p.m. last Sunday.

2.表示一动作正在进行时，另一动作同时正在进行.

(1)用while连接（while只接doing），主从句子动作一致，无先后顺序。

例:My mother was cooking while I was doing my homework.

(2）对when连接的主从句，动作先发生的使用过去进行时，动作后发生的使用一般过去时；

例:I was doing my homework when my mother came in.

When he was watching TV the door bell rang.

3.重复的动作When he worked here, John was always making mistakes.

4.表示过去将要发生的动作She told us Mr.Lee was arriving here.

5.用于故事，以提供其时间背景

6.用过去进行时表示现在，主要是为了使语气委婉、客气。

例：I was wondering if you could give me a lift.

We were hoping you would stay with us.

三、注意事项

1、通常不能用于过去进行时的动词主要有：

感官动词：hear,see,notice,feel,taste,seem,look……

表示态度感情的动词：like,love,hate,agree,believe,care,mean,mind,suppose……

表心理状态：,want,prefer,know,understand,remember,forget,wish……

表占有：own,have,belong……

表存在状态和持续：be……

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。

2、与现在进行时相似，过去进行时也可表示满意、称赞、惊讶、厌恶等感情的色彩，也通常与always, forever, 等副词连用。如：

They were always quarrelling. 他们老是吵架。

The boy was always asking questions. 这个男孩子老是问东问西的。

3、动词be的进行时也可表示过去一时的表现或暂时的状态。比较：

He was friendly. 他很友好。(指过去长期如此)

He was being friendly. 他当时显得很友好。(指当时一时的表现)

4、在带有all night，the whole morning等强调时间长度的状语时，用过去进行时更好些。如：He was working all night last Monday．
