Read the sentences. How are for and since used differently?

Has she ever done volunteer work?
How long have you been a volunteer?
How long has he worked as a volunteer at the museum?
No, I haven’t. But one of my friends has volunteered here for a long time.

He has volunteered here since his summer holidays started.
现在完成时
核心结构 have / has (助动词) + done (过去分词)
核心功能 过去某个时间发生的事,对现在产生影响。
过去存在的状态一直持续至今。
现在完成时的时间标志词及其用法 since 后接时间点,如 since 2023、since last August 等。
for 后接一段时间,如 for a long time、for three years 等。
since 后不仅可接表示时间的短语,也可接表示时间的状语从句,如 since I was born、since the summer holidays started 等。
现在完成时表示动作或状态从过去某时开始,一直延续至今,还可能继续下去。这种用法称为“未完成用法”。此时常与for 或 since 引导的时间状语(从句)连用。
1. 现在完成时的含义
现在完成时(二)
2. 现在完成时的“未完成”用法
表示“未完成”的句式 示例
现在完成时+for+一段时间 We have known each other for twenty years.
我们认识有二十年了。
现在完成时+since+表示过去的时间点 Mr. Smith has worked here since 1984.
自从1984年史密斯先生就在这里工作。
现在完成时+since+从句 I have lived here since I was born.
我从出生起就住在这儿。
3.延续性动词与非延续性动词
(1)含义:延续性动词表示能够延续的动作,这种动作可以延续下去或产生 持久影响。非延续性动词也叫终止性动词、瞬间动词等,表示不能延续的动作,这种动作发生后即刻停止。
(2)用法:
①常见的延续性动词有 learn、work、live、know、walk、watch、sleep、stay、wait、keep 等。
延续性动词可以与表示一段时间的状语连用,如 how long、for+时间段、since+过去的时间点、since 引导的时间状语从句(一般过去时)、since+一段时间+ago 等。
(2)用法:
②常见的非延续性动词有 open、close、die、begin、come、go、borrow、lend、buy、move 等,表示某个动作的结果还存在,但不能与表示一段时间的状语连用。有些非延续性动词可以用延续性动词替换。
③在否定句中,非延续性动词可以与表示一段时间的状语连用。
e.g. I haven’t heard from my friend for three weeks.
我已经有三个星期没有收到我朋友的来信了。
(3)非延续性动词转换为延续性动词的方法:
①将非延续性动词转化为“be+形容词或副词”,这样才能和时间段连用:
begin/start →be on(开始) go there →be there (去那里)
come back →be back(回来) come here →be here (来这里)
open →be open(开业) close →be closed (关门)
die →be dead(死) marry →be married (结婚)
finish →be over (结束) go to bed →be in bed (上床睡觉)
leave →be away (离开) return →be back (回来)
get out →be out (出去) fall asleep →be asleep (入睡)
lose →be lost (丢失) fall ill →be ill (生病)
get/arrive/reach →be in/at (到达)
join/become →be in/be a member of (参加,加入)
