1、一般过去时和一般将来时英语动词时态详解：一般将来时一、一般将来时的定义一般将来时表示在现在看来即将要发生的动作或存在的状态。常用时间副词tomorrow, soon或短语next year / week / month, in a few days, in the future, sometime做状语。如：What will you do this afternoon.你今天下午干什么？We will have a meeting tomorrow.我们明天要开会。He is going to study abroad next year.明年他要出国学习。二、一般将来时的基本用法及构成一般
2、将来时的基本用法是表示单纯的将来事实，由“will / shall +动词原形”构成：We shall have a lot of rain next month.下个月将下很多雨。I think she will pass the exam.我想他考试会及格的。三、表示将来时间的几种常见方法英语中除了“will /shall+动词原形”表示半来时态外，还可以有以下多种方法：(1)用“be going to+动词原形”表示。主要表示打算和预测：We are not going to stay there long.我们不准备在那里多待。(表打算)Im afraid theyre going t
3、o lose the game.恐怕他们会赛输。(表预测)Look, its going to rain.瞧，要下雨了。(表预见)注：be going to后接动词go和come时，通常直接改用其进行时态：Where is he going to go? / Where is he going?他打算到哪里去？(2)用“be to+动词原形”表示。主要表示按计划或安排即将要发生的动作；有时也表示命令、禁止或可能性：He is to leave forBeijingtomorrow.他决定明天去北京。Tell him hes not to be back late.告诉他不准迟回。(3)用“be
4、 about to+动词原形”表示。主要表示即将要发生的事：He is about to leave.他即将要离开。Sit down, everyone. The film is about to start.大家坐好，电影马上就要开发始了。注：该结构通常不与具体的时间状语连用：误：He is about to leave soon tomorrow.另外，该结构在美国英语中还可表示“打算”(主要用于否定句)：Im not about to lend him any more money.我不打算再借给他任何钱。(4)用“be due to+动词原形”表示。主要表示按计划或时间表将要发生某事：
5、He is due to leave very soon.他很快就要离开。His book is due to be published in October.他的书计划10月份出版。(5)用“现在进行时”(即be现在分词)表示。主要表示按计划或安排要发生的事：The students are leaving on Sunday.学生们星期日出发。Were having a party next week.我们下星期将开一个晚会。注：该用法有时表示即将发生的动作：Im leaving.我走了。(6)用“一般现在时”表示。表示按规定或时间表预计要发生的事：The train leaves at
6、7:25 this evening.火车今晚7:25分开。Tomorrow is Wednesday.明天是星期三。We have a holiday tomorrow.我们明天放假。注：在表示时间、条件等的状语从句以及某些名词性从句、定语从句等中，也用一般现在时表示将来意义，参见“时态详解：一般现在时”的有关用法。四、三种将来时间表示法的比较(1)“will / shall动词原形”与“be going to动词原形”两者均可表示将来时间和意图，两者有时可换用：I think itll rain this evening. / I think its going to rain this e
7、vening.我想今晚会下雨。I wont tell you about it. / Im not going to tell you about it.我不会把这事告诉你的。但有时有差别：若是强调某个意图是经过事先考虑好的，则通常要用be going to；若是表示某个意图没有经过事先考虑，而是在说话的当时才临时想到的，则通常用will。比较：Ann is in hospital. Oh, really? I didnt know. Ill go and visit her. “安住院了。”“啊，真的吗？我还不知道。我要去看看她。” (临时想法，不能用be going to)Ann is i
8、n hospital. Yes, I know. Im going to visit her tomorrow. “安住院了。”“我知道，我打算明天去看看她。” (事先考虑的意图，不能用will)若是有迹象表明要发生某事，通常只用be going to，不用will：Look at those black clouds. Its going to rain.看那些乌云，要下雨了。带有时间或条件状语从句的主句通常不宜用be going to，而用will：When he comes back, I will tell him the news.他回来时我就告诉他这个消息。If he comes
9、back, I will tell him the news.他若回来我就告诉他这个消息。(2)“be going to+动词原形”与“现在进行时”be going to主要表示主观想法或意图，而现在进行进表示将来则主要已经强调作出的安排。比较：Im going to wash the car if I have time.若有时间我想洗洗车。(主观想法)Im picking you up at 6; dont forget.我6点钟来接你，不要忘了。(已作出的安排)但是当要表示主观无法控制的预测时，通常要用be going to，不能用现在进行时态：Its going to snow bef
10、ore long.不久会下雪。Things are going to get better soon.情况很快就会好起来。当表示坚持要(不要)某人做某事时，两者均可用：Shes taking going to take that medicine whether he likes it or not.不管她喜欢不喜欢，她都得吃那药。Youre not wearing going to wear that skirt to school.你不可以穿那条裙子去上学。(3)“be going to+动词原形”与“be to+动词原形”的区别两者均可表示按计划或安排要发生的动作，有时可互换(但be t
11、o比be going to正式)：Where are we going to stay tonight?我们今晚住哪里？Im (going) to play tennis this afternoon.我打算今天下午打网球。另外，be going to还可表示预测，即根据已有迹象预测将要发生的动作，此时不能用be to：Look, its going to rain.看，要下雨了。五、典型一般将来时考题详解【例1】Turn on the television or open a magazine and you_advertisements showing happy familiesA.wi
12、ll often seeB.often seeC.are often seeingD.have often seen分析：A。这是“祈使句+and +陈述句”句型，祈使句相当于一个条件状语从句，and后的陈述句的谓语用一般将来时，这是一个较为固定的句型。【例2】He was hoping to go abroad but his parents_that they wont support him unless he can borrow money from the bank.A.were decidingB.have decidedC.decidedD.will decide分析：B。因宾
13、语从句中的时态是一般将来时，主句中的谓语动词不可能是过去时态，排除选项A和D;由语境判断，不是“将要决定”，而是“现在已经决定”，所以排除D，而选B。【例3】How can I apply for an online course?Just fill out this form and we_what we can do four you.A.seeB.are seeingC.have seenD.will see分析：D。表示将要发生的情况，自然是用一般将来时。【例4】If their marketing plans succeed, they_their sales by 20 perce
14、nt.A.will increaseB.have been increasingC.have increasedD.would be increasing分析：A。由于if条件从句用的是一般现在时，所以其相应的主句宜用一般将来时。【例5】Population experts predict that most people_in cities in the near future.A.liveB.would liveC.will liveD.have lived分析：C。根据句中的in the near future可知要用一般将来时。【例6】When I talked with my gra
15、ndma on the phone, she sounded weak, but by the time we_up, her voice had been full of life.A.were hangingB.had hungC.hungD.would hang分析：C。从逻辑上说，当我在电话里和奶奶聊天时，她的声音听起来很虚弱；但到我们要挂电话时，她的声音又充满朝气。从逻辑上说，应该是“奶奶的声音又充满朝气”在先，“我们挂断电话”在后，如果是反过来的话，那说话者就无法听知道“奶奶的声音又充满朝气”之回事了。所以“挂断电话”应用一般过去时。另外，由于by the time后接的定语从句通
16、常要用一般现在时代替一般将来时，用一般过去时代替过去将来时，所以选项D不能选。【例7】Ann is in hospital.Oh, really? I_know. I_go and visit her.A.didnt; am going toB.dont; wouldC.dont; willD.didnt; will分析：D。根据句意，在此之前说话人不知道安住院了，因此第一空用一般过去时；说话人打算去看她，这个动作还没发生，因此第二空用一般将来时。注意be going to与will表示将来的区别：表示临时的决定，要用be going to，不用will()。【例8】Ill go to the
17、 library as soon as I finish what I_.A.was doing B.am doingC.have doneD.had been doing分析：B。句意是：我一完成我做的工作就去图书馆。由于“去图书馆”用的是一般将来时，说明要完成的工作是“现在”正在做的事情，故用现在进行时。又如：He is studying architecture.他在学习建筑。The ambulance is carrying wounded people to the nearest hospital.救护车正在把受伤的人送到最近的医院。英语动词时态详解：一般过去时一、一般过去时的定义
18、一般过去时表示过去某一时候或某一段时间所发生了的事情或存在的状态。常与过去时间yesterday, this morning, just now, a moment ago, in May, last night / year / week, once upon a time, the other day,in the past 等连用。如：What did you do yesterday? 昨天你干了什么？I met Lin Tao this morning. 今天上午我会到了林涛。I was there a moment ago. 刚才我在那儿。二、一般过去时的应用1.一般过去时表示过去

21、我们该动身了。I wish I knew his him.要是我知道他的名字就好了。Id rather you lived closer to us.我希望你能住得离我们近点。注：该用法主要用于its time, I wish, Id rather, if only, as if, as though等少数结构后接从句的情形，其中有些结构后面的句子还可用一般过去时表示将来：Id rather you come next Monday.我宁愿你下周星期一来。另外表主观想法的虚拟条件句也用一般过去时表示现在：If I had the money now Id buy a car.假若我现在有钱，我
22、就买辆小汽车。(from )三、一般过去时对谓语动词的要求一般过去时的谓语动词要用动词的过去式。动词过去式的构成分规则变化和不规则变化两种形式，不规则变化通常需要逐个记忆，规则变化则遵循以下原则：(1)一般在动词后加-ed。如：playplayed, offeroffered, weighweighed, destroydestroyed, signsigned.(2)在以字母e结尾的动词后，只加-d。如：likeliked, provideprovided, hatehated, datedated。(3)在以“辅音字母+y”结尾的动词后，则改y为i，再加ed。如：supplysupplie
23、d, flyflied, studystudied. (from )(4)在以单短元音的重读闭音节结尾且，末尾只有一个辅音字母的动词后，双写最后一个辅音字母，再加-ed。如：planplanned, referreferred, regretregretted, banbanned.四、特别说明有些动词的过去时，如：expect, hope, intend, plan, wanted 等一般过去时，后接不定式的完成时；或它们的过去完成时接不定式的一般式，都可表示过去未曾实现的意图、打算或希望。如：I hoped to have been invited to his wedding party
24、.I had hoped to be invited to his wedding ceremony. 我本希望他来邀请我参加他的婚礼。I intended to have joined their games.I had intended to join their games. 我本打算参加他们的比赛。五、典型考题（附详解）1.Helen_her keys in the office so she had to wait until her husband_home.A.has left; comesB.left; had comeC.had left; cameD.had left; w
