托福语法:时间从句中一般过去时与过去完成时(2)
英语课
C 在after之后一般用过去完成时态:
After the will had been read there were angry exclamations 1.
遗嘱宣读完之后,激起了一片愤怒的?时刻回顾更为过去的动作时,要用过去完成时。如果有两个这样的动作:He had beento school but he had learnt nothing there,so was now illiterate(他上过学但什么也没学到,因此现在还是个文盲),而又想用时间连词把它们连接起来,就可以用when等连词连接两个过去完成时:
When he had been at school he had learnt nothing,so he was now illiter-ate.
他上学的时候什么也没学到,所以现在还是个文盲。
但更常见的情况是,这里时间从句中的动词用一般过去时:
When he was at school he had learnt nothing,
(译文同上。)
类似的例句还有:
He had stayed in his father’s firm till his father died.Then he had startedhis own business and was now a very successful man.
他在父亲的公司里一直呆到父亲去世。之后他便自己开业,其时已成为一个事业有成的商人。
D 表示认识、理解等的动词一般在时间从句中不用过去完成时,除非有时间修饰:
When she had known me for a year she invited me to tea.
她认识了我一年之后,邀请我吃茶点。
When I knew the work of one department thoroughly 2 I was moved to thenext department.
在我完全熟悉了一个部门的工作之后,又被调到另一部门。相当于:
As soon as I knew…
试与下句比较:
When I had learnt the work of one department I was moved.
我学会一个部门的工作之后,就被调走了。
n.呼喊( exclamation的名词复数 );感叹;感叹语;感叹词
