英语时态学习技巧解析(2)

　　二、短暂动词与延续性动词

　　短暂性动词也称做终止性动词、非延续性动词或瞬间动词，表示动作不能延续，只是一瞬间就结束的动作。

　　常见的短暂性动词有：come, go, arrive, reach, see, hear, close, open, leave, begin, start, lose, buy, fall, join, die, become, borrow, get up等。

　　1、用法：

　　１）它们可以用于完成时态，说明某个动作的结果还存在。

　　例句： He has come back. The film has begun.

　　2）这类动词不能和表示一段时间的状语连用，但在否定句中，非延续性动词也可以用表示一段时间的状语来修饰。

　　例句：I haven’t heard from Uncle Wang for a long time.

　　3）还可改用一般过去时来表达。

　　He came back a week ago.

　　4）也可用“It is﹢一段时间﹢since…”句型来表达。

　　It is a week since he came back.

　　1）用相应的延续性动词：

　　put on --- be on
