成人高考学好英语语法精品小秘籍
不管结果怎么样，经历过，总会有结果的!高考的朋友们，为你们祝福，也为你们祈祷!愿梦开始的地方，也是梦想实现的地方!关于高考经验怎么写?下面是小编给大家带来的有关高考经验范文，一起来看看吧!
规则(1)：两个动词是不能联在一起用的。
在中文，我们常说“我是爱你的”，翻成英文，这就变成了
_ I am love you.
滑稽的是，这句英文句子犯了大忌，因为〝am〞是动词，〝love〞也是动词，两个动词是不能联在一起用的。这句话的正确说法是：
I love you. 或者 I am in love with you.
我们中国人也会说〝我喜欢看电视〞，翻成英文，这变成
_ I love watch television.
这个句子也犯了同样的错。
以下几个句子都是错的，因为这些句子中都有两个动词连在一起的情形：
I hate eat fish.
I love play basketball.
I love swim.
如果你一定要讲“我爱游泳”，怎么办呢?请看以下的规则。
规则(2)：如一定要同时用两个动词，后者的前面必须加“to”或者将后者加入“ing”。
“我爱游泳”，因此有两种正确的译法：
I love to swim.
I love swimming.
以下的句子都是正确的：
I hate to eat fish.
I hate eating fish.
I love to play basketball.
I love playing basketball
I keep going to church
规则(3)：主词如果是第三人称，现在式及单数，动词必须加s.
我们中国人最不容易记得的规则，恐怕就是这一条了，以下的句子都是错的。
_ He write very well.
_ Jack love playing the violin.
_ Mary swim every day.
正确的句子是：
He writes very well.
Jack loves playing the violin.
Mary swims every day.
规则(4)：绝大多数的否定的句子，不能直接加“not”。
我们中文对否定语气，规则极为简单，我们可以说“我不爱你”，但是我们不能说
_ I not love you.
我们也不能说：
_ I not saw that movie.
_ I not like swimming.
_ He not likes playing violin.
我们必须用一种助动词来完成否定的句子，以下才是正确的否定句子：
I do not love you.
I did not see that movie.
He does not like playing violin.
请注意，在以上的句子中，do和did都是助动词，do是现在式，did是过去式。
关于现在式和过去式，究竟是怎么一回事，以后我们会解释清楚的。
助动词不限于“do”和它的变型，can、will、would、shall、may、must等等都是助动词，因此，以下的英文句子又都是对的：
He can not swim.
They will not go to church tomorrow.
Mary should not go to the party.
I shall not see you.
He may not go out tonight.
He must not eat meat any more.
规则(5)：在不定词“to”的后面，必须用原形动词
英文中的动词，是会变化的，以have为例，第一人称和第三人就不同：
I have a dog.
He has a dog.
如果是过去式，动词又要变化。have的过去式是had，不论第几人称，一概都要用had.
几乎每一个英文动词的过去式都有变化，以下是几个例子：
现在式 过去式
go went
come came
eat ate
play played
swim swam
不论那一个动词，都有一个原形动词，一切都是从这个原形动词变出来的，像go、drink、have、walk、love、like等等都是原形动词。
如果我们有必要要用不定词to，就必须用原形动词，例如to go、to drink、to have，都是正确的，_to went;_to drank;_to loved等等都是错的。
英文中有一个动词最为麻烦，那就是am、are、is、was、were等等，翻译成中文，这都是，而这些动词的来源都是be，所以我们说这些动词都是verb to be.
以下的句子都用上了〝be〞
I want to be a teacher.
He wants to be a good father.
They all love to be rich.
No one likes to be poor.
规则(6)：英文中有所谓的助动词。必须注意
英文中有很多动词都是助词动，在规则(4)中，我们说在绝大多数的否定语句中，必须用助动词do或did.Do是原形动词，did 和does都是do的变形。
除了do是助动词以外，can、may、might、will、would、must也都是助动词。
以上所提到的助动词，都有一个共同的特色，那就是这些助动词后的动词必须是原形动词，以下的句子都是正确的：
He can swim.
He does not swim.
I do not speak English.
You must walk to work every day.
I did not work yesterday.
You may leave now.
I will go to Taipei tomorrow.
以下的句子都是错的：
_ I did not went.
_ He does not goes to work.
_ You must walked to work.
除了以上的助动词以外，还有一个非常特殊的助动词，那就是have，在这个助动词的后面，动词绝对不能用原形动词，以下是用这个助动词的例子：
I have been to England.
I have slept all day.
I have studied English since I was a child.
been、slept 和studied都是过去分词(past participle)，以下的句子也都是现在完成式，我们后讨论完成式的时候，会将这些解释清楚的。
规则(7)：英文问句要有助动词
我们先看看以下的英文句子，这些都是错的：
_ How many books you wrote?
_ How many sons you have?
正确的句子是：
Why do you drink so much water?
How many books did you write?
How many sons do you have?
绝大多数的英文问句子是一定要有助动词，以下全是正确的英文问句，你可以看出每一句的助动词吗?
Do you love me?
Did you go to school yesterday?
How many books do you have?
How much money does he have?
Why don‘t you go back home?
Do you like to swim?
Can you play violin?
Will you go home tomorrow?
Would you give me a call?
当然啦，一旦动词是verb to be，我们又不需要助动词了，以下都是正确的英文问句：
Are you a teacher?
Is he a student?
Is Mr. Chang your father?
Were your mother and father in England last year?
规则(8)：特殊动词随主词的变化
英文中，有些动词因主词不同而改变，verb to be是其中之一，因此，我们必须记得以下的规则：
第一人称 第二人称 第三人称
现在式 单数 I am You are (He，She，It)is
复数 We are You are They are
过去式 单数 I was You were (He，She，It)was
复数 We were You were They were
Verb to have也有类似的变化：
第一人称 第二人称 第三人称
现在式 单数 I have You have (He，She，It)has
复数 We have You have They have
过去式 单数 I had You had (He，She，It)had
复数 We had You had They had
[练习一]
以下的句子都有错，请将正确的句子写出来：
1._ I am like my parent.
2._ He is loves his teacher.
3._ He keeps swim every day.
4._ He wants drink a glass of water.
5._ He likes play violin.
6._ Jack do not love mathematics.
7._ Mary hate singing.
8._ My mother cook very good food.
9._ He want me to see him tomorrow.
10._ He not knows my name.
11._ I not like you.
12._ He not like swimming.
13._ You not went home.
14._ I not like swimming.
15._ I wanted to went to my mother‘s home.
16._ I do not like to swimming.
17._ I did not ate dinner.
18._ I will not went home.
19._ He did not went home.
20._ You may leaving now.
21._ He can swimming.
22._ He does not goes to work.
第二章 现在式和现在进行式
2§1 现在式
英文中，现在式(present tense)好像是最容易的，其实现在式都是我们常常用错的时式。
首先，我们不妨举一个例子来说明我们对现在式惯有的误解，假设我们要说〝我在吃午饭〞，这总该用现在式了吧。很多人将这句话翻成
I eat lunch.
这就错了，因为〝I eat lunch.〞的意思并不是〝我在吃午饭〞，而是〝我有吃午饭的习惯〞，意思是说，有人中午不吃午饭(可能是在减肥)，我可是每天中午都会吃午饭的。
〝我在吃午饭〞，应该要用现在进行式，这是我们以后会谈的。
现在式不是指任何一个行为，而是一种状况。举例来说，以下几句话都应该用现在式：
我是一个学生 I am a student.
他是一个老师 He is a teacher.
他每天游泳 He swims every day.
汤姆勤奋工作 Tom works hard
他早起 He gets up early.
玛莉喜欢看电影 Mary loves watching movies.
这里常常下雨 It rains often here.
我每天喝一杯牛奶 I drink a glass of milk every day.
我是中国人 I am a Chinese.
他会讲英文 He speaks English.
他有喝茶的习惯 He drinks tea.
我骑脚踏车上学 I ride a bicycle to school.
他搭乘公交车上班 He rides a bus to go to work.
我不喜欢你 I do not like you.
他爱他的太太 He loves his wife.
他守法 He obeys the law.
我不喜欢莎士比亚 I do not like Shakespeare.
他不抽烟 He does not smoke.
他喝酒 He drinks.
他唱歌唱得很好 He sings well.
他跳舞跳得很好 He dances well.
他不会游泳 He can not swim.
他不是一个好学生 He is not a good student.
他们都很懒 They are all very lazy.
凡是真理，自然界的现象，数学里的定理，都要用现在式：
太阳从东方升起 The sun rises in the east.
地球是圆的 The earth is round.
月亮是地球的一个卫星 The moon is a satellite of the earth.
美国是一个大的国家 America is a large country.
在北极的夏天，太阳永不落下 The sun never sets at the North Pole in summer.
树叶吸收二氧化碳 Tree leaves absorb CO2 .
计算机的基本原理是布尔代数 The basic principle of computers is Boolean algebra
二点决定一线 Two points define a line.
三点决定一平面 Three points define a plane.
三基本颜色是红、黄、蓝 Three of the basic colors are red， yellow and blue.
[练习二]
将以下中文句子翻成英文，都用现在式。
1.他是一个好学生。
2.我的哥哥17岁。
3.我弟弟每天游泳。
4.他们都喜欢音乐。
5.他们现在在日本。
6.喜玛拉雅山是全世界的山。
7.亚马孙河是全世界最长的。
8.他的爸爸是位老师。
9.我们都喜欢中国菜。
10.他不喜欢冰淇淋。
11.我爱你。
12.每个人都怕蛇。
13.每个人都喜欢狗。
14.今天真冷。
2§2 现在进行式
假如我们正在做一件事，是不能用现在式的，而必须用现在进行式，现在进行式的形态是：
verb to be + present participle(现在分词)
verb to be 大家都懂，什么叫做现在分词呢?现在分词就是
动词+ing
以下是现在分词的例子
动词 现在分词
work working
go going
read reading
run running
play playing
swim swimming
sing singing
write writing
eat eating
walk walking
come coming
love loving
like liking
watch watching
smoke smoking
如果我们说
I am watching a movie.
那是指我现在正在看电影，这和
I watch movies.
意义上截然不同的，I watch movies是说我有看电影的习惯。
因此有些动词是没有现在进行式的，举例来说
I am loving you.
是不通的，因为严格说起来，love是一种状态，而不是一个动作。现在进行式，都是指动作，很少指状态的。
以下是现在进行式的例子：
I am calling my father.
He is swimming now.
He is playing basketball.
They are all eating now.
He is walking in the woods now.
He is reading a detective novel.
Mr. Brown is driving to work.
Mrs. Brown is cooking.
It is raining now.
[练习三]
将以下句子译成英文，都用现在进行式：
1.他在看电影。
2.我在游泳。
3.她在和她妈妈打电话。
4.他的哥哥在散步。
5.我现在正在吃饭。
6.我们在唱歌。
7.他在弹钢琴。
8.他在看一本小说。
9.我在写一封信。
10.他在跑步。
[练习四]
将下列句子译成英文，有的用现在式，有的用现在进行式：
1.我爱你。
2.我正在吃饭。
3.他不是一个学生。
4.我是一个老师。
5.他正在唱歌。
6.他在游泳。
7.他喜欢游泳。
8.他会唱歌。
9.他正在唱歌。
10.他的爸爸是一个医生。
11.他的爸爸在美国。
12.我正在洗澡。
13.他正在睡觉。
14.你的姊姊在骑脚踏车。
15.你的姊姊每天骑脚踏车上学。
第三章 过去式和过去进行式
3§1 过去式
过去式是指过去所发生的事，举例来说，假如我昨天去看了一场电影，我就可以说
I went to see a movie yesterday.
以下全部是正确的句子：
I saw your father last night.
I met your son last month.
I ate three apples this morning.
He went to church to pray last night.
可是，我们必须非常小心，因为一不小心，我们就可能犯了大错，我们如果要向情侣表示爱情，当然说
I love you.
如果我们说
I loved you.
事情就可能闹大了，因为这表示我过去曾经爱过你，可是现在已经不爱了。〝I loved you〞等于是〝I loved you before. But I do not love you now.〞
假如我们看过一个小男孩然后我们说
He was a good boy.
那就是说他现在已不是一个好男孩了，变成了一个不乖的孩子，或者他已经死了。
英文里的过去式常常是侦探用来破案的线索。有一次，有一个母亲，向警察报案，说她的女儿失踪了，她在记者面前，声泪俱下地说
She was such a nice girl.
警察马上觉得这位母亲有问题，因为她不该用过去式的，用了过去式，表示女儿已经死了，可是母亲不是说她失踪了吗?为什么她用过去式，极有可能因为她知道她女儿已经死了，才脱口而出，用了过去式。警察因此怀疑母亲本人就是凶手，事实也果真如此：这位母亲打自己的女儿，出手太重，将女儿打死了，谎报女儿失踪，她用了过去式，使警察知道她有问题。整个案子的侦破，就在于过去式。
我们因此不能轻易用过去式，但我们也千万要注意，该用过去式的时候，一定要用过去式，以下句子都是错的：
_I go to school yesterday.
_I see a movie last night.
_My mother comes to see me last month.
_I eat three apples this morning.
_He is happy yesterday.
以上句子的正确写法是：
I went to school yesterday.
I saw a movie last night.
My mother came to see me last month.
I ate three apples this morning.
He was happy yesterday.
[练习五]
将以下中文句子翻成英文，全部用过去式：
1.我昨天参加了一个舞会。
2.他的哥哥昨天打电话给我。
3.我去年到美国去。
4.昨夜我遇到你的姊姊。
5.我写了一封信给你。
6.我今晨吃了一个蛋。
7.他昨夜整夜跳舞。
8.我们昨天跑了五千公尺。
9.他昨夜非常疲倦。
10.他昨夜去台北探访他的爸爸。
[练习六]
将下列的句子译成英文句子，有的用现在式，有的用过去式：
1.他是一个强壮的男孩。
2.他昨天生病了。
3.他每天吃一个苹果。
4.他昨天吃了三个苹果。
5.我喜欢看电影。
6.我是个快乐的人。
7.昨天我看了两场电影。
8.他昨天寄了一封信给你。
9.他常常抽烟。
10.我每天读圣经。

2.他喜欢打篮球。
3.他昨天打篮球。
4.他每天骑脚踏车上学。
5.他昨天骑脚踏车到乡下去。
6.我喜欢唱歌。
7.他正在唱歌。
8.你的爸爸昨天来看我。
9.他的哥哥每天步行二公里。
10.他的弟弟是个好孩子。
11.他去年非常虚弱。
12.他正在打电话。
13.他每天都努力工作(work hard)。
14.你的弟弟喜欢游泳。
15.他过去是个好学生。
3§2 过去进行式
过去进行式和现在进行式有点类似，只是verb to be要用过去式的。可是有一点不同，过去进行式，很少单独用的，而常和另一句子一齐用。举例来说以下的中文句子：
我昨天去看你的时候，你正在打篮球，如译成中文，就是
You were playing basketball when I went to see you yesterday.
以下是典型的过去进行式用法
I was taking a bath when you called.
I was watching TV when you came to see me.
They were dancing when the teacher came in.
They were singing in the station when the train arrived.
Mr. Brown was cleaning his house when his son came home.
总而言之，过去进行式通常牵涉到几件事，这两件事同时发生，其中一件事用过去式，另一件事用过去进行式
[练习八]
将以下句子译成英文，其中一部份使用过去进行式：
1.他昨天到学校去的时候，天在下雨。
2.当火车停下的时候，他在看报(read newspaper)。
3.当火车进站的时候，他们在唱歌。
4.我昨天去他家的时候，他在和他爸爸打电话。
5.昨天晚上八点钟，我在家看电视。
6.当我爸爸昨晚打电话给我的时候，我正在刷牙(brush my teeth)。
7.当我昨晚打电话给他时，他在游泳。
8.当这猫走进来的时候，那只狗在睡觉。
9.当他弟弟回家的时候，他在拉小提琴。
10.当我爸爸回家的时候，我妈妈在烧饭。
[练习九]

2. He (be) a Catholic when he was a child.
3. I (go) to see my mother yesterday.

_He always wear a black coat.
_He is watch TV now.
第四章 完成式(Perfect Tense)
4§1 现在完成式(Present Perfect Tense)
完成式的形式是 verb to have + past participle，每一个动词，都有过去式和过去分词，以下就是一些例子：
原式 过去式 过去分词(past participle)
go went gone
come came come
see saw seen
do did done
watch watched watched
get got gotten(或got)
have had had
use used used
buy bought bought
listen listened listened
draw drew drawn
paint painted painted
leave left left
arrive arrived arrived
dance danced danced
kill killed killed
write wrote written
run ran run
swim swam swum
snow snowed snowed
eat ate eaten
love loved loved
fly flew flown
spread spread spread
hit hit hit
drink drank drunk
take took taken
grow grew grown
sell sold sold
ride rode ridden
steal stole stolen
break broke broken
walk walked walked
read read read
sing sang sung
work worked worked
以下的句子都是用了现在完成式：
I have read this book.
I have seen the movie.
I have lived here since 1973.
I have studied English for a long time.
He has washed his hands.
He has left.
He has already completed the report.
The storm has arrived.
I have taken the job.
I have written the letters.
I have not seen him since 1975.
I have never seen this man before.
什么情况之下要用现在完成式呢?
首先假设我们有一件事，发生在过去，而一直延续到现在，就要用现在完成式，这种句子后面常有since或for.以下是这种情形的例子：
(1)自从1963年，我一直在念英文。
I have studied English since 1963.
(2)自从1975年以后，我就住在这里。
I have lived here since 1975.
(3)自从我是一个小孩子，我就喜欢摇滚乐。
I have loved rock and roll music since I was a child.
(4)自从去年，我就从来没有见过他。
Since last year， I have never seen him.
(5)自从1950年以后，他就一直在此工作。
He has worked here since 1950.
(6)我认识他已经很久了。
I have known him for a long time.
(7)他练习网球已经四年了。
He has already practiced tennis for (the past) four years.
(8)我穿这件夹克很久了。
I have worn this jacket for a very long time.
(9)我开这辆汽车很久了。
I have driven this car for a long time.
(10)好久没有下雨了。
It has not rained for a long time.
2.使用现在完成式的另一情况是强调已经完成的事，比方说，你说“我已经写了那封信”，就可以用现在完成式，或者，你说“他已经完成了工作”。以下是这类的例子：
(1)我已经写了这封信。
I have already written the letter.
(2)他已经完成了工作。
He has already completed the work.
(3)我已经测试了这个程序。
I have already tested the program.
(4)我已经收到了你的信。
I have already received your letter.
(5)他已搬到了一个较大的房子。
He has already moved to a bigger house.
(6)虽然他很年轻，但他已写了三本小说。
Although he is young， he has already written three novels.
(7)我打了二次电话给他，他都没有回答。
I called him twice， he has never answered.
3.现在完成式用来表示一种经验，举例来说，“我曾经到过美国”、“我曾见过李总统”、“我有生以来没有跳过舞”，这些都应该用现在完成式，例如：
我曾经到过美国。
I have been to America.
我曾见过李总统。
I have seen President Lee.
我有生以来没有跳过舞。
I have never danced in my life.
我看过“双城记”。
I have read The Tale of Two Cities.
他曾吃过这种冰淇淋。
He has tasted this kind of ice cream.
我未曾见过雪。
I have never seen snow.
你曾见过雪吗?
Have you ever seen snow?
你登过玉山吗?
Have you ever climbed Jade Mountain?
4.现在完成式可以用来表示一件过去常发生的事：
今年我国已有二次台风。
We have already had two typhoons so far this year.
他今年已发表了三篇论文。
He has already published three papers this year.
过去一年，我看了三次“铁达尼号”。
In the past year， I have seen The Titanic three times.
对读者而言，最重要的是“现在完成式”和“过去式”不同究竟在那里?最重要的不同在于，一旦在句子中讲一件过去发生的事，而且指定特定的时间，就一定要用“过去式”，而不能用“现在完成式”。比方说，“我曾经看过“铁达尼号”，可以用现在完成式，因为这句话没有指明任何特定的时间，假如说，我昨天晚上去看“铁达尼号”，就一定用过去式，读者不妨看看以下的比较：
(a)I went to America last year.
I have been to America.
(b)I saw The Titanic last year.
I have seen The Titanic twice.
(c)I finished my homework late last night.
I have finally finished my homework.
(d)I studied English when I was a small child.
I have studied English since I was a child.
(e)I went to church yesterday.
I have never been to church.
以下的句子是错的，请特别注意：
_(1)I have seen the movie last year.
_(2)I have never been to America last year.
_(3)He has never finished his work last night.
现在完成式常和since、for、already、never、ever等字一起使用，以下都是这类的例子：
(1)I have already had dinner.
(2)Since this summer began， we have already had two storms.
(3)It has not rained for a long time.
(4)I have never talked to this man before.
(5)I have never met your father.
(6)Have you ever been to America?
(7)He has already won three awards.
(8)I have stayed here since June.
Never 和 ever 也常是我们弄不清楚如何使用的字，一般说来， never 有否定的意思，ever则只有在问句中才会出现。

7.我昨天晚上完成了报告。
8.昨夜，我见到了你的父亲。
9.我已经见过你的父亲好几次了。

8. I (talk) to my father last night.
9. Since 1961， I (be) a teacher. Before that， I (be) a student.
10. I (read) many novels written by Charles Dickens
4§2现在完成进行式(Present Perfect Progressive Tense)
在上一节，我们知道，如果有一个行动，从过去发生后，就一直延续到现在，我们可以用现在完成式。举例来说，以下的例子都应该用现在完成式：
自从1974年，我就在学校学英文。
Since 1974， I have studied English at school.
自从我大学毕业以后，我就在这里工作。
Since I graduated from college， I have worked here.
以第一句话为例，假如我们要强调我一直在练习游泳，而且没有间断，我们可以用现在完成进行式(present perfect progressive tense)。所谓现在完成进行式，形式如下：
verb to have + been + present participle
verb to have 是为了完成式，been 和 present participle 都是为了进行式。
以下是现在完成进行式的例子：
I have been studying English since 1974.
I have been working here since I graduated from college.
I have been living here since I was a child.
He has been acting like a fool lately.(他最近一直在做傻事)
They have been dancing since seven o'clock.
It has been snowing since yesterday.
I have been taking music lessons since last year.
He has been drinking heavily since last year.(他去年起，就一直在酗酒)
[练习十四]
将以下的句子译成英文，全部用现在完成进行式：
1. 自从我们是小孩子起，我们就一直努力工作。
2. 从去年起，他就在念英文。

4§3 过去完成进行式(Past Perfect Progressive Tense)
过去完成式的形式如下：
had + past participle
过去完成式是不能单独用的。我们用的时候，必须有另一个事件。也就是说，假如我们有两件事 A 和 B，两件事都发生在过去，但 A 发生在 B 以前，A 应该用过去完成式，B 则用过去式。以下是几个例子：
他到台湾以前，曾学过中文。
He had studied Chinese before he came to Taiwan.
他念大学以前，曾前工作过。
He had worked before he decided to go to college.
我写这篇有关爱尔兰的小说以前，曾去过爱尔兰。
I had been to Ireland before I wrote this book about Ireland‘s people.
我在上大学以前，已经学过微积分。
I had studied calculus before I got into college.
周一以前，已经下过雪了。
It had already snowed before Monday.
如果我们要强调较早发生事件的连续性，我们可以用过去完成进行式。占去完成进行式和现在进行式惟一不同的地方是 verb to have 的地方一定要用had .以下是一些过去完成进行式的例子：
I had been watching TV before you called me.
I had been working hard in a company for many years before I went to college.
He had been studying before he went to class.
He had been driving all day before he went to sleep.
