备战2021年高考英语——时态之一般过去时(二)
一般过去时
1)在确定的过去时间里所发生的动作或存在的状态。
时间状语有:yesterday, last week, an hour ago, the other day, in 1982等。
例:Where did you go just now?
2)表示在过去一段时间内,经常性或习惯性的动作。
例:When I was a child, I often played football in the street.
Whenever the Browns went during their visit, they were given a warm welcome.
3)句型:
would (had) rather sb. did sth. 宁愿某人做某事
例:I'd rather you came tomorrow.
4)wish, wonder, think, hope 等用过去时,作试探性的询问、请求、建议等。
例:I thought you might have some. 我以为你想要一些。
【比较】
一般过去时表示的动作或状态都已成为过去,现已不复存在。
Christine was an invalid all her life.(含义:她已不在人间。)
Christine has been an invalid all her life.(含义:她现在还活着。)
Mrs. Darby lived in Kentucky for seven years.(含义:达比太太已不再住在肯塔基州。)
Mrs. Darby has lived in Kentucky for seven years.(含义:现在还住在肯塔基州,有可能指刚离去。)
注意:用过去时表现在,表示委婉语气。
1)动词want, hope, wonder, think, intend 等。
例:Did you want anything else?
I wondered if you could help me.
2)情态动词 could, would.
例:Could you lend me your bike?

但愿我年轻20岁。

我宁愿你暂时先不要采取什么措施。
b)在口语中,一般过去时往往显示委婉客气。
