7、过去完成时(1)构成:一律用had + 过去分词构成。(2)用法:
1)表示发生在过去某一时间或动作之前的事情,即“过去的过去”。用过去完成时,必须有一个过去的时间或动作来作参照,说明在此之前某事已发生。如果两个动作都是在过去发生的,先发生的用过去完成时,后发生的用一般过去时。例如:
She told me she had been there three times before。 她告诉我她以前到过那里三次。(“去过”发生在“告诉”之前)
How long had he taught here by the end of last term? 到上学期末为止,他在这里教学多长时间啦? (“教学”发生在上学期末结束之前)

She had visited China twice before she came this year。 她今年来中国之前已访问过中国两次了。

By the middle of last month; I had lived in Beijing for five years。 到上月中旬,我已在北京住了五年了。
By six o’clock they had worked for eight hours。 到六点为止,他们已工作八小时了。
When I came to Shanghai; he had been there for a long time。 我到上海时,他在那里很长时间了。
3)过去完成时动词常用于间接引语和虚拟语气,我们以后会详细讲述。
4)此外,过去完成时常用于 no sooner…than… 和 hardly(scarcely) …when… 这两个句型,前面部分用过去完成时,后面部分用一般过去时。例如:
No sooner had he stolen the purse than he was caught red…handed。 = He had no sooner stolen the purse than he was caught red…handed。 他刚偷到钱包就被当场抓获。
Saddam had hardly realized what was happening when he was captured。 = Hardly had Saddam realized what was happening when he was captured。 萨达姆还没有意识到在发生什么事情就被抓获了。

8、过去完成进行时(1)形式:had been + 动词的现在分词。(2)用法:表示一直持续到过去某个时间的行为动作,此行为动作或刚结束、或还没结束(可以从上下文看出)。这一时态经常与一般过去时一起使用。例如:

9、一般将来时一般将来时动词表示将来发生的动作或情况。主要有以下几种表现形式:(1)shall/will + 动词原形表示单纯的将来,不涉及主语的主观意愿。第一人称I; we用shall 或will,其余用will。 其否定式、疑问式和简单回答形式如下:
否定式疑问式I shall/will not study…。Shall I study…?You will not study…。Will you study…?He will not study…。Will he study…?否定疑问式简单回答(肯定/否定)Shall I not (shan’t i) study…?Yes; you will。 No; you won’t。Will you not (Won’t you) study…?Yes; I shall/will。 No; I shan’t/won’t。Will he not (Won’t he) study…。?Yes; he will。 No; he won’t。例如:

(2)be going + 动词不定式
1)这种结构表示主体现在打算在最近或将来要做某事。这种打算往往是事先考虑好的。例如:

be going to 和will在含义和用法上略有不同。Be going to往往表示事先经过考虑的打算;will多表示意愿,决心。有时不能互换。例如:
I have bought some bricks and I am going to build a kitchen with them。我买了些砖,我要用它们盖个厨房。(不能用will替换)
Can somebody help me? ?I will。 谁能帮我一些吗?―?我来。(不能用be going to替换)2)be going to 可用于条件从句,表示单纯的将来;will则不能。例如:
