过去式的解释和用法

were

放在主语前。

二、

be

的一般过去时：学习动词

b e

的一般过去时，下面有一口诀，它可以帮你们更好地掌

握动词

be

的一般过去时。

be

的过去时有四巧：

一是时间状语巧，

表示过去的短语要记牢；

二是形 式巧，单数

was

，复数

were

；

三巧是否定句结构，

not

紧跟

was

／

were

；

四是疑 问句式巧，

was

／

were

向前跑

(

提前

)

。

【一巧】时间状语（即标志词）巧。一般 过去时表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态，恰

巧

与表示过去的一些时间状语连用。

1.

yesterday

或以其构成 的短语

：

yesterday morning(afternoon, evening)

等；

2.

由

“

l ast+

一时间名词

”

构成的短语：< /p>

last night, last year (winter, month, week)

等；

3.

由

“

时 间段

+ago

”

构成的短语：

a moment ago, a short time ago, an hour ago

等；

4.

其它：

just now

等

5.

由某些表示

过去时态的从句

等。

【二巧】

形式巧。

它与一般现在时一样，

形式多 样：

当主语是第一人称单数或第三人称

单

数时，

谓语动词用

was

< br>；

主语是第二人称或其他人称复数时，

谓语动词用

were

。

例如：

I was in the classroom yesterday morning

．

昨天早上我在教室里。

He was at school last Tuesday

．

上周二他在学校。

They were over there a moment ago

．

刚才他们在那边。

【三巧】否定句结 构巧。与动词

be

的一般现在时一样，它在动词后面加

not

即可变成

否定

句，并且

was, were

与

not

可以缩写成

wasn't, weren't

。即：

主语

＋

wasn't

／

weren't

＋

表语

＋

其他。例如：

I was not (

＝

wasn't) here yesterday

．

昨天我不在这儿。

My parents were not (

＝

weren't) at home last Sunday

．

上周日我父母不在

家。

【四巧】

疑问句式巧。把

was, were

提到句首，句末用问号即可变为一般疑问句。即：

Was(Were)

＋

主语

＋表语

＋

其他？这恰巧与动词

be

的一般现在时 的疑

问句

式相似。例如：

Were you at home the day before yesterday

﹖

前天你在家

吗？

Was she late this morning

﹖今天早上她迟到了吗？

更巧的是疑问句的答语也相似，肯定回答用

“Yes,

主语＋

was

／

we re

．

”

；

否定回答用

“No,

主语＋

wasn't

／

wer en't

．

”

。

例如：

—

Were Wei Hua and Han Mei here just now

﹖

刚才魏华和韩梅在这儿

吗？

—

Yes, they were

．

(No, they weren't

．

)

是的，

她们在。

（不，

她们不在。

）
