從近幾年各省的高考試題,我們不難看出其考點(diǎn)主要分布在動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)基本用法和已混時(shí)態(tài)的比較,以及特定情景和特定句式中時(shí)態(tài)運(yùn)用,除了掌握時(shí)態(tài)基本概念和表現(xiàn)形式,還要特別強(qiáng)化具體語境中的活用。
時(shí)態(tài)考點(diǎn)及高考
一、一般過去時(shí)和過去進(jìn)行時(shí)比較
一般過去時(shí)強(qiáng)調(diào)動(dòng)作結(jié)束,而過去進(jìn)行時(shí)對(duì)過去某時(shí)刻正在進(jìn)行或過去某一階段持續(xù)的動(dòng)作
— Did you watch the basketball match yesterday?
— Yes, I did, You know, my brother __ in the match .
A. is play B. was playing C. has played D. had played
解讀:根據(jù)yesterday可知,動(dòng)作發(fā)生在過去,答語“當(dāng)時(shí)我兄弟正在打這場(chǎng)比賽”,選B
二、一般過去時(shí),現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)與過去完成時(shí)比較
一般過去時(shí)表過去發(fā)生的動(dòng)作,常和明確的時(shí)間狀語連用;現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)表動(dòng)作發(fā)生在過去,且對(duì)現(xiàn)在有影響,即過去為因現(xiàn)在為果;而過去完成時(shí)強(qiáng)調(diào)某動(dòng)作發(fā)生在過去在另一個(gè)動(dòng)作前就已經(jīng)完成,即“過去的過去”。
1. We first met on a train in 2000. We both felt immediately that we ___ each other for years.
A. knew B. have known C. had known D. know
解讀:For years 是完成時(shí)的時(shí)間狀語,know是在met前.選C
2. I dont believe youve already finished reading the book — I __ it to you this morning!
A. would lend B. was lending C. had lent D. lent
解讀:從句中this morning可知用過去時(shí),表示“我今天早晨才借給你這本書”. 選D
三、現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)與完成進(jìn)行時(shí)的比較
現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)表正在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作;而完成進(jìn)行時(shí)表從過去某一時(shí)間開始一直持續(xù)到說話時(shí)停止或仍繼續(xù)進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作。
1. Cathy is taking notes of the grammatical rules in class at a Night School, where she___ English for a year.
A. studies B. studied C .is studying D. has been studying
解讀:study動(dòng)作到目前還在進(jìn)行中,for a year又是完成時(shí)態(tài)時(shí)間狀語,選D
2. — Did you find the missing tourists in the mountains yesterday?
— No, but we ___ to get in touch with them ever since.
A. ha tried B. have been trying C. ha tried D. ha been trying
解讀:答語中“No”和”ever since”可知,用現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)表示“一直和他們?cè)O(shè)法聯(lián)系”。選B
四、時(shí)態(tài)的特殊運(yùn)用
特殊時(shí)態(tài)和特定句型中的特定時(shí)態(tài)。條件狀語從句中,常用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)代替一般將來時(shí),有時(shí)表示按日程、時(shí)刻定時(shí)發(fā)生的動(dòng)作,用進(jìn)行時(shí)表即將發(fā)生的動(dòng)作。
1. The wet weather will continue tomorrow when a cold front __ to arrive
A. is expected B .is expecting C. expects D. will be expected

2. Look at the timetable. Hurry up! Flight 6120___ off at 18:20.
A. takes B. took C. will be taken D. has taken
解讀:用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)表示定時(shí)發(fā)生的動(dòng)作。選A
3. Id rather you ___ tomorrow than today.
A. come B .are coming C. came D. have come
解讀:would rather后面的從句用一般過去時(shí),選C
類似的特殊句型還有:It is high /about time that s.b + 過去時(shí)
It is the+序數(shù)詞+time + that s.b + 現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)
It was the+序數(shù)詞+time + that s.b + 過去完成時(shí)
五、時(shí)態(tài)的綜合運(yùn)用及比較
1.根據(jù)對(duì)話或語境判斷時(shí)態(tài)。這一題目一般不會(huì)直接給出時(shí)間狀語,而要求考生根據(jù)具體語境或說話人意圖來判斷
時(shí)態(tài)。
— Whats that noise?
— oh, I forgot to tell you, The new machine ___
A. was tested B. will be tested
C. is being tested D. has been tested
解讀:從問句可知,指目前正在發(fā)生的事情。選C
— Do you know if Terry will go camping this weekend?
— Terry?Never ! she ___ tents and fresh air!
解讀:此情景指Terry的一貫行為,所以選用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。選D
2.根據(jù)句意判斷時(shí)態(tài)。這類題目較難,考生只有理解了句子本身的含義,理清動(dòng)作內(nèi)在的聯(lián)系才能做出正確的判斷。

A had rung B. was ringing C. rings D. has rung
