　　I met Lin Tao this morning. 今天上午我會(huì)到了林濤。

　　I was there a moment ago. 剛才我在那兒。

　　英語一般過去時(shí)講解：應(yīng)用

　　1. 一般過去時(shí)表示過去

　　(1) 表示過去發(fā)生的動(dòng)作或存在的狀態(tài)：

　　He bought the computer five years ago. 這電腦是他五年前買的。

　　It was then a small fishing village.那時(shí)它只是一個(gè)小漁村。

　　(2) 表示過去經(jīng)常性或習(xí)慣性的動(dòng)作：

　　We often played together when we were children.我們小時(shí)候常在一起玩。

　　注：表過去習(xí)慣性的動(dòng)詞，也可用used to或would：

　　He used to go to work by bus. 他過去常乘公共汽車去上班。

　　2. 一般過去時(shí)表示現(xiàn)在

　　(1) 在賓語從句中，由于時(shí)態(tài)呼應(yīng)的關(guān)系，可用一般過去時(shí)表示現(xiàn)在：

　　I didn’t know you were here. 我不知道你在這兒。(were實(shí)際上指現(xiàn)在)

　　I didn’t know you were so busy.我沒想到你這么忙。(were實(shí)際上指現(xiàn)在)

　　(2) 表示客氣委婉的現(xiàn)在

　　I wondered if you were free this evening. 不知您今晚是否有空。

　　I thought you might like some flowers. 我想您也許想要些花。

　　英語一般過去時(shí)講解：對(duì)謂語動(dòng)詞的要求

　　一般過去時(shí)的謂語動(dòng)詞要用動(dòng)詞的過去式。動(dòng)詞過去式的構(gòu)成分規(guī)則變化和不規(guī)則變化兩種形式，不規(guī)則變化通常需要逐個(gè)記憶，規(guī)則變化則遵循以下原則：

　　(1) 一般在動(dòng)詞后加-ed。如：play—played, offer—offered, weigh—weighed, destroy— destroyed, sign—signed.

　　(2) 在以字母e結(jié)尾的動(dòng)詞后，只加-d。如：like—liked, provide—provided, hate — hated, date—dated。

　　(3) 在以“輔音字母+y”結(jié)尾的動(dòng)詞后，則改y為i，再加—ed。如：supply—supplied, fly—flied, study— studied. (from www.yygrammar.com)

　　(4) 在以單短元音的重讀閉音節(jié)結(jié)尾且，末尾只有一個(gè)輔音字母的動(dòng)詞后，雙寫最后一個(gè)輔音字母，再加-ed。如：plan—planned, refer—referred, regret—regretted, ban—banned.

　　四、特別說明

　　有些動(dòng)詞的過去時(shí)，如：expect, hope, intend, plan, wanted 等一般過去時(shí)，后接不定式的完成時(shí);或它們的過去完成時(shí)接不定式的一般式，都可表示過去未曾實(shí)現(xiàn)的意圖、打算或希望。如：

　　I hoped to have been invited to his wedding party. —I had hoped to be invited to his wedding ceremony. 我本希望他來邀請(qǐng)我參加他的婚禮。

　　I intended to have joined their games. —I had intended to join their games. 我本打算參加他們的比賽。

　　解析：答案選 C。leave 應(yīng)發(fā)生在 had to wait 這個(gè)過去動(dòng)作之前，“過去的過去”用過去完成時(shí); 后一空用一般過去時(shí)表示過去將來。

　　8. —I hear Jane has gone to the Holy Island for her holiday.

　　—Oh, how nice! Do you know when she ______?

　　A. was leaving B. had left C. has left D. left

　　解析：答案選 D。因?yàn)镴ane已經(jīng)度假去了，“離開”此地就當(dāng)然是在此之前的過去某個(gè)時(shí)間了，所以用一般過去時(shí)，選D。另外，when通常都不與完成時(shí)連用，排除B和C，A也與語境不符。

　　9. I ______ you not to move my dictionary—-now I can’t find it.

　　A. asked B. ask C. was asking D. had asked

　　10. The teacher, with 6 girls and 8 boys of her class, ______ visiting a museum when the earthquake struck.

　　A. was B. were C. had been D. would be

　　11. The discussion ____ alive when an interesting topic was brought in.

　　A. was coming B. had come C. has come D. came

　　12. She ______her hairstyle in her hometown before she came to Chongqing for a better job.

　　A. would change B. has changed C. changed D. was changing

　　解析：答案選 C。由came可知，她已來重慶了，而改變發(fā)型是在來重慶之前，即過去的過去，按理要用過去完成時(shí)，但before已經(jīng)表明緊接著發(fā)生的先后兩個(gè)動(dòng)作，所以也可用一般過去時(shí)，所以選C。

　　13. What we used to think ______ impossible now does seem possible.

　　A. is B. was C. has been D. will be

　　解析：答案選 B。根據(jù)句中的used to可知，空格處應(yīng)填一般過去時(shí)。句意為：我們過去認(rèn)為不可能的現(xiàn)在都似乎有可能成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。

　　14. It is said that the early European playing-cards ______ for entertainment and education.

　　A. were being designed B. have designed

　　C. have been designed D. were designed

　　解析：答案選 D。解答此題的關(guān)鍵是要抓住early這一形容詞。early European playing-cards的意思是“早期歐洲人玩的撲克牌”，既然是“早期”，肯定就是過去的事了，所以用一般過去時(shí)。

　　15. I ______ in London for many years, but I’ve never regretted my final decision to move back to China.(www.cpsenglish.com)

　　A. lived B. was living　 C. have lived D. had lived

　　解析：答案選 A。許多同學(xué)一看到后面的have never regretted為現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，同時(shí)選項(xiàng)C也是現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，結(jié)果濫用時(shí)態(tài)呼應(yīng)，將答案誤選C。其實(shí)，此題的最佳答案是A。句中but后的句子告訴我們，說話者現(xiàn)在已搬回了上海，所以他住在倫敦應(yīng)屬于過去的事情，故應(yīng)用一般過去時(shí)。

　　16. Eliza remembers everything exactly as if ______ yesterday.

　　A. was happening B. happens C. has happened D. happened
